Research on vitamin C and its effects on cancer is growing in
popularity around the world as positive research continues to
accumulate building a stronger case for its effectiveness. This
concise SpringerBrief on Vitamin C and Cancer presents the latest
findings on how vitamin C induces apoptosis. A high concentration
of vitamin C allows for ascorbate to generate hydrogen peroxide in
tissue that can selectively kill cancer cells. Research has
confirmed that high-dose vitamin C is cytotoxic to a wide variety
of cancer cell lines, and that it also boosts the anti-cancer
activity of several common chemotherapy drugs. Vitamin C also does
more than just kill cancer cells. It boosts immunity by stimulating
collagen formation to help the body wall off the tumor. It inhibits
hyaluronidase, an enzyme that tumors use to metastasize and invade
other organs throughout the body. This concise and up-to-date Brief
is geared towards cancer researchers and scientists, as well as
physicians interested in the basic science and the translational
potential of vitamin C in cancer therapeutics.
