Researchers at the National Institute of Health noted the phenomenon in brain, ovarian and pancreatic cancers, according to findings published in the August 5th issue of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. High doses of vitamin C injections reduced the size of tumors and slowed cancerous growths by about 50 percent in laboratory mice, according to US research.
"Researchers discovered that high concentrations of ascorbate had anticancer effects in 75 percent of cancer cell lines tested, while sparing normal cells," the report said. "The researchers traced ascorbate's anti-cancer effect to the formation of hydrogen peroxide in the extracellular fluid surrounding the tumors. Normal cells were unaffected," it said. Injections were necessary because the body regulates vitamin C when ingested so that higher doses cannot be attained.
"When you eat foods containing more than 200 milligrams of vitamin C a day -- for example, two oranges and a serving of broccoli -- your body prevents blood levels of ascorbate from exceeding a narrow range," said Mark Levine, the study's lead author and chief of the Molecular and Clinical Nutrition Section of the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases.
Scientists "injected ascorbate into the veins or abdominal cavities of rodents with aggressive brain, ovarian, and pancreatic tumors," the report said, delivering "up to four grams per kilogram of body weight daily." By injecting mice with 43 cancer and five normal cell lines, "the researchers discovered that high concentrations of ascorbate had anticancer effects in 75 percent of cancer cell lines tested, while sparing normal cells." Scientists involved with the study also pointed to evidence that "these high ascorbate concentrations could be achieved in people."
"In immune-deficient mice with rapidly spreading ovarian, pancreatic, and glioblastoma (brain) tumors ... the ascorbate injections reduced tumor growth and weight by 41 to 53 percent." The researchers concluded that the findings "provide the first firm basis for advancing pharmacologic ascorbate in cancer treatment in humans." Vitamin C was considered as a possible treatment for cancer three decades ago, but subsequent studies showed oral doses provided no benefit.
TIFM has administered IV Vit C since opening 15 years ago and has long followed the teaching of Dr Linus Pauling regarding the many benefits of Vit C in the body. It helps with:
- Colds
- Allergies
- Allows for more rapid recovery from surgery-several IV’s given weeks before and after surgery often cuts healing time in half and tremendously reduces bruising
- Recently several cancer oriented physicians are sending us their patients for ultra high doses of Vit C
- Helps detox the body from chemicals
This is the easiest IV you will ever receive while listening to music on your headset, reading a book or simply taking a nap.
