Abstract
EFFECT OF THE VITAMIN C SUPLEMENTATION TOWARD MULTI VITAMIN-MINERAL ON THE STATUS OF NUTRITIONAL ANTIOXIDANT IN WOMAN WORKERS
Micronutrients, both vitamins and minerals are needed by the body in limited quantities, but their role
is essential to the body. To fulfill vitamin and mineral requirements, consumption of variant and
balanced diet is needed because most vitamins and minerals are not produced by our body. Food
supplements can be a good alternative in providing sufficient amount of micronutrient if intake from
dietary sources are not enough. This research was intended to analyse the effect of multi vitaminmineral (MVM) supplementationcompared to a single nutrient supplementation (Vit C 1000 mg) on
dietary antioxidant status. It was conducted on Februari 2008and thedesign of this research was a
double blind randomized controlled trial. There were 92 samples aged 20-45 years old, healthy
(physically and clinically), did not consume alcohol, did not smoke and were willing to partipate in the
research. Multi vitamin-mineral supplementation increased serum concentration of vitamin E and
superoxide dismutase (SOD) significantly(p<0.05), while single supplementation of vitamin C 1000 mg
improved only vitamin C status. Suplementation of multi vitamin-mineral reduced free radicals by
improving superoxide dismutase (SOD) status.
Keywords: multi vitamin-mineral supplementation, superdioxide dismutase status, vitamin E
status, viin C status.
