High-dose intravenous vitamin C (HDIVC) has been used for many decades as a complementary and alternative therapy for cancer patients. High dose vitamin C IV therapy can selectively target cancer cells while leaving healthy cells unharmed.
Vitamin C is administered intravenously at doses of 50-100 grams two to three times per week, where it exhibits pro-oxidant activity.
That means that the purpose of the vitamin C is to kill cancer cells by interacting with iron to cause the formation of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2).
Some clinical studies have shown that HDIVC may improve quality of life and prolong survival in patients with terminal cancer.
This is in contrast to when Vitamin C acts as antioxidant when taken at lower doses, for example through supplementation.
When taken through supplementation, there is a limit to how much vitamin C the body can absorb, meaning excess vitamin C is excreted out of the body. Because of this, it is impossible to reach high blood or plasma levels of vitamin C through supplementation.
Although HDIVC is generally safe, it is crucial to undergo this treatment under the guidance of a doctor who understands the more nuanced yet important complexities surrounding this treatment so that your plan can be the most effective and safe.
Although HDIVC has been used for many years in clinical settings, more studies are being conducted and published to support its use as an integrative cancer treatment.
Recently, many studies have shown how HDIVC therapy benefits cancer patients. There are several phase I/II/III clinical trials and case reports on the safety and efficacy of HDIVC with various types of cancer showing symptom improvement (such as decreased pain), prolonged survival, improved quality of life and a reduction in side effects whilst taken alongside chemotherapy, radiotherapy and immunotherapy.
