Ludicrous

Vitamin C Doesn't Cause Cancer!

The study was conducted in a test tube (in vitro) under conditions

far different from the infinitely more complex conditions in cells

and tissues of the human body (in vivo).

Vitamin C and Cancer

Perhaps our health authorities will recognize the benefit of this

" mere " vitamin. But, maybe the issue all along was not the fact that

vitamin C is an effective and non-toxic therapy, but rather that drug

companies cannot make millions of dollars from it because as a

vitamin it is difficult to patent. If this is the case, it would be

another example of how economics not medicine decides what therapies

are made available for cancer.

This is not in a person but in a test tube

They can't make money off Vitamin C
