The Probable New Cancer Drug: Vitamin C

The Probable New Cancer Drug: Vitamin CThere has been major breakthrough in cancer treatment research, sources confirm. Research scientists at the University of Otago School Of Medicine say that including Vitamin C in your daily diet could reduce the risk of cancer; in fact, it could also help fight cancer. This link between Vitamin C and cancer treatment, if true, could actually change the face of medicine in a myriad ways.
The research of these scientists has been published in the highly-esteemed Cancer Research journal, and it indicates that if Vitamin C is introduced to a tumour, it may reduce in size, become less resistant to chemotherapy and bring about a possible cure. It will also slow the rate of growth of the tumour, and the cancer cells will be more likely to respond to chemo treatment.
The research also involves a study that indicates that Vitamin C kills the protein that helps carcinogenic cells to grow. Dr. Visser, a part of the team, confirms that the Vitamin C treatment would apply to most solid cancers, including haematological tumours like leukaemia.
After this research, it is upto to doctors to find various ways to introduce the vitamin to tumours and cancer cells. Also, what is important to know is that Vitamin C is one that is benefits not only cancer patients but also people who just want to keep healthy.
Looks like this is very good news for the medical fraternity!
