Alternative medicine and traditional medicine debates have been going in this country for decades. The debate with Vitamin C is no different. There are arguments on both sides of the medical community that supports the use of Vitamin C as a very powerful medicine to combat the cancerous cells and also the effects of traditional treatment of cancer. However, proponents of pharmaceutical and synthetic drugs strongly oppose the use of Vitamin C or any other vitamin for that matter for any physical diagnosis.
Here we will discuss the results of the alternative medicine community’s studies and the manner in which it is reported that it may be a strong natural ally in the fight against cancer.
How It Works
Vitamin C is commonly seen in many everyday foods as Ascorbic Acid is found naturally in our environment in countless fruits and vegetables, especially citrus fruits. This vitamin has been recommended by doctors for years as a vitamin that will help improve your immune system.. Some research exists that Vitamin C will minimize the length a person experiences symptoms of the common cold. Free radicals reside in our bodies and the process by which they attach to other cells in the body damage other cells. Vitamin C is in a class commonly known as antioxidants.
Antioxidants operate to neutralize free radicals by preventing them from obtaining the electrons they need to continue to exist. Antioxidants hinder the damage created by the free radicals. Free radicals are caused by environment or food. Here in Lawrenceville, Georgia and our proximity to the busy Atlanta traffic, the environment is a concern. Many lay people ask if it can help contain free radicals, then common sense leads one to believe it can stop cancer as well? What do the studies show?
Studies
Pharmaceutical companies utilize a scientific process for testing drugs that is usually lengthy in years and expensive. Needless to say, vitamin C has not undergone this exact type of testing. Additionally, it has not been approved by the FDA, nor has it undergone similar clinical trials. However, various studies conducted by the alternative medical community have produced their own results supporting the use of Vitamin C as an aid in the treatment of cancer. Check out the studies on the web as they are not cited here. However, according to studies conducted by the alternative medical community of doctors, patients, and practitioners, and at least one very compelling article published in the National Institute of Health in a 2018 journal, high quantities of intravenous vitamin c taken by patients results in them having a more improved life and had fewer manifestations of the disease.
