A 2008 Vitamin C – End All Disease study conducted by the National Institute of Health found that, when injected into mice, Vitamin C could slow the growth of tumours. Despite the long history of research into vitamin C and cancer with many of the same findings, the research paper presented its findings as new. Curative health affects using vitamin C therapy have been known for a long time.
Studies on Vitamin C and Cancer
* A study conducted in 1969 found that Vitamin C would selectively kill cancer cells without harming normal cells. These scientific findings were largely ignored by the medical establishment.
* Clinical trials conducted by 2x Nobel Prize winner Linus Pauling and surgeon Ewan Cameron were able to prolongue the lives of cancer patients 6x longer than they would have lived without Vitamin C.1
* A 1994 study conducted by Dr. Art Robinson found that mice with cancer fed a diet of raw vegetables and given high-dose vitamin C lived up to 20 times longer than the control mice.2
* After reviewing the existing literature, Steve Hickey, Ph.D and Hilary Roberts, Ph.D found that in high enough doses, Vitamin C acts as an anti-cancer medicine.3
How Does Vitamin C Work to Kill Tumours?
In healthy tissues, Vitamin C works as an antioxidant to clean up and remove free radicals, and in cancer cells it acts as an oxidant which kills abnormal cells and generates free radicals.
When blood levels of Vitamin C are maintained at a consistently high level, it is absorbed into tumour tissues, where it generates hydrogen peroxide, killing cancer cells.
If you want to understand why Vitamin C can detoxify ANY known chemical, here’s what you need to know:
* All toxins are pro-oxidant in the body, which means they take electrons away from cells unless neutralized with antioxidants. This oxidative stress damages cells.
* Increasing your body’s blood levels of the antioxidant Vitamin C will give the toxins something to consume so that they cannot negatively effect your cells, and they are then removed from the body.
