The U.S. scientists found that high doses of vitamin C input through injection, can suspend the growth of malignant entities. So far, experiments were conducted only on mice. But the result was above all expectations: growth slows tumor at 41-53 per cent.
The fact is that the elevated concentrations of vitamin C in the blood around the tumors formed a large number of hydrogen peroxide, which can kill cancer cells. Most importantly, the healthy tissue surrounding the tumor with this method of treatment is not damaged.
The difficulty is that the body is arranged so that the concentration of ascorbic acid can not exceed a certain level: here does the special mechanism. Therefore, scientists had to make mice injections to achieve the desired concentration of 4 grams per kilogram of body weight.
In experiments with 43 varieties of cancer and five types of healthy cells, scientists have found that ascorbic acid in 75% of cases operates on the cancer cells.
The interest to the vitamin C emerged about 30 years ago, when a series of studies has shown its effectiveness in treating a number of tumors. But after it became clear that the admission in the form of vitamin pills will not impact on tumor studies have been virtually stopped.
Now, when it is clear that the matter is in concentration of ascorbic acid, the scientists are planning clinical trials of new anti funds on the basis of vitamin C. They hope that this remedy will be effective and affordable and can help more people.
