Why would Brigham and Women's Hospital encourage you to NOT take antioxidant supplements? 
 
Here's the title of a press release about a recent BWH supplement study: 'Vitamin C and Other Antioxidant Vitamins Provide No Protection From Cardiovascular Events.' 
 
And that press release prompted this headline from Reuters: 'Common Vitamins No Help for Women's Hearts Study' 
 
And yet this quote is taken directly from the BWH study as it appears in an August issue of the Archives of Internal Medicine: 'those randomized to both active ascorbic acid and vitamin E experienced fewer strokes.' 
 
So in a study that spanned nearly 10 years and involved more than 8,000 women, those who took supplements of vitamins C and E experienced fewer strokes, and yet somehow that adds up to 'no protection'? 
 
If you ignore the BWH research team's take on their own study, and instead focus on their results, there's actually some very good news here for women at risk of cardiovascular disease.
