Cancer and Vitamin C

High doses of vitamins have been used to treat cancer. This book explores the ways Vitamin C retards cancers through the perturbation of multiple cellular pathways, by eliciting a hypoxic response in cancer cells, by stimulation of radio-sensitivity, and by reprogramming somatic cell activities. A chapter summarizes clinical trials and therapies.

Vitamin C may offer significant therapeutic benefits in the treatment of cancer. This book includes chapters by a group of leading scientific researchers documenting the ways cancer can be affected by high doses of ascorbate. After an initial chapter providing a historical perspective, subsequent chapters focus on cancer cell death, reprogramming of somatic cells, recent case studies, and other ways vitamin C can improve outcomes of therapy.
