The Benefits of Vitamin C in Cancer Treatment

Post Number:#1  Post by ofonorow » Mon Aug 08, 2022 10:32 am

Goodyear typically starts at 1.5 grams per kilogram, which for the average person would be somewhere between 100 and 200 grams per dose, three times a week.

Dr. Goodyear reports good success at eliminating all signs of cancer with a holistic approach using the above dosages of IV/C. His treatments are continued until all signs of cancer are gone. (He has apparently drunk the cool aid and recommends "whole food" C orally, rather than ascorbic acid. Nobody is perfect.)


In contrast, here is what looks like a Chinese study combining vitamin C with a drug, and what looks to be the same dosage.

Patients and Methods: Between 2017 and 2019, histologically confirmed mCRC patients (n = 442)62 with normal glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase status and no prior treatment for metastatic disease63 were randomized (1:1) into a control (FOLFOX +/- bevacizumab) and an experimental (high-dose64 vitamin C [1.5 g/kg/d, intravenously for 3 hours from D1 to D3] plus FOLFOX +/- bevacizumab) group.65 Randomization was based on the primary tumor location and bevacizumab prescription


The study reports that that there was no advantage to adding vitamin C. Unfortunately the high dose was only given for three days, "from D1 to D3."
