Researchers from the University of Technology Sydney found that vitamin C may protect lung tissue from air pollution damage. The study, led by Professor Brian Oliver, showed that vitamin C reduced lung inflammation and oxidative stress in experiments on mice and lab-grown human tissues. However, Professor Oliver cautioned against high-dose supplements, advising consultation with a GP for appropriate dosage. This research offers hope for a low-cost preventative treatment for air pollution-related respiratory issues.
