Background Haptoglobin (which is encoded by the Hp gene) is a hemoglobin binding protein that has antioxidant properties and a common polymorphism that consists of 2 structurally different alleles Hp1 and Hp2 The capacity of Hp2 to inhibit oxidation and vitamin C depletion is less than that of Hp1 but the influence on vitamin C requirements remains unknownObjective This study aimed to determine whether the Hp poly morphism modifies the association between dietary vitamin C and serum ascorbic acid deficiency (
