Studies during the 1970s first suggested administration of high doses of

ascorbate might provide a clinical benefit for treating cancer, but later

studies using the same high doses found no benefit.

 

However, researchers now say the original studies used intravenous and oral

ascorbate, while subsequent studies used only oral administration.

Recognizing those differences might account for the disparate clinical

outcomes, Mark

Levine and colleagues at the National Institutes of Health reexamined

intravenous ascorbate therapy in cultured cancer cell lines.

 

The researchers found ascorbate killed cancer cells at concentrations that

would only be achievable through intravenous infusion. Normal cells were not

affected by ascorbate at any concentration.

 

Additionally, the scientists report ascorbate treatment led to the formation

of hydrogen peroxide, a chemical that can kill cells, suggesting a potential

mechanism for the therapy.

 

The research appears in this week's online, early edition of the Proceedings

of the National Academy of Sciences.

I recommend this intravenous therapy as an adjunct to the Rath oral cancer

therapy, which is described in general at

End of Jonathan's comment.

 

We should also make a distinction between ascorbic acid (generally called

vitamin C) and mineral ascorbates, that is vitamin C bound to a mineral such as

calcium, sodium, potassium, magnesium. This latter one is the form utilized

by the human body. Since intravenous vitamin C is always in ascorbate form,

perhaps that could explain why a difference in efficacy is observed between

oral and the intravenous vitamin C.

 

According to Hickey, vitamin C has an extremely short half life in the body

-around 30 minutes - so a constant supply, either by intravenous drip or by

multiple doses during the whole day, is important to obtain the full

beneficial effect.

Vitamin C: Cancer cure?

_http://www.philly.com/mld/inquirer/living/health/14842932.htm_

Is mainstream medical science ignoring an inexpensive, painless, readily

available cure for cancer? Mark Levine mulls this loaded question. The

government nutrition researcher has published new evidence that suggests

vitamin C can

work like chemotherapy - only better. But so far, he hasn't been able to

interest cancer experts in conducting the kind of conclusive studies that, one

way or the other, would advance treatment.
