Vitamin C is a vital nutrient for health. It helps form and maintain bones, skin, and blood vessels. It occurs naturally in some foods, especially, fruit and vegetables. Supplements are also available.
Vitamin C is water soluble, and the body does not store it. To maintain adequate levels of vitamin C, humans need a daily intake of food that contains it.2.jpg

In the case of wound healing, research as long ago as 1942 suggested that wounds took longer to heal if someone had scurvy.
The role of vitamin C as an antioxidant also helps repair tissue and reduce damage from inflammation and oxidation.
Vitamin C may help in treating cancer. As an antioxidant, it protects the body against oxidative stress and helps prevent the oxidation of other molecules. It appears to regenerate other antioxidants in the body, too.

The National Cancer Institute report several studies that used high dose vitamin C intravenously with few side effects.

A number of doctors support it and are already using it in treatment.
The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has not yet approved the use of intravenous vitamin C in treatment of cancer patients, including those undergoing chemotherapy and radiation therapy, and it is not recognized as a treatment.3.jpg
