Vitamin C for Cancer & Infectious Diseases (from Mercola's website)

[Guest guest]

[Mercola Article]

Vitamin C has taken a backseat in recent years with the advent of

many newer antioxidants, but that doesn't make it any less important.

Vitamin C is clearly the 'grandfather' of the traditional antioxidants

we know of, and its potent health benefits have been clearly

established.

Dr. Hunninghake is an internationally recognized expert on

this vitamin. He got his start in this field about 22 years ago when he

joined Dr. Hugh Riordan, who conducted research on intravenous (I.V.) vitamin C

for cancer patients.

His clinic is the successor to Linus ing and his work on vitamin C,

and there is likely no clinic in the world with as much experience as

his.

Dr. Hunninghake's Experience with Vitamin C for Cancer and Infectious Diseases

Dr. Riordan carried on a 15-year long research project called RECNAC

(cancer spelled backwards). His groundbreaking research in cell

cultures showed that vitamin C was selectively cytotoxic against cancer cells.

Together, Hunninghake and Riordan conducted studies with a series of patients

who had either stage 3 and stage 4 cancer.

" I.V. vitamin C was found to be very beneficial, " Hunninghake says.

" It's not considered a stand-alone therapy for cancer, but it's a

perfect adjunct to any kind of therapy that the cancer patient is

receiving at this time.

It will reduce side effects and improve quality of life. There

have actually been two major studies now showing how it improves

quality of life. "
