Fighting off cancer cells

Vitamin C does more than just protect your body– it can even help you fight cancer. Vitamin C is great for your immune system. When administered intravenously, high doses of Vitamin C will exclusively attack cancer cells, leaving healthy tissue unharmed.

Reducing toxicity levels in your body

Vitamin C can help you tolerate higher doses of chemotherapy. It does this by reducing toxicity levels within your body. Vitamin C allows chemotherapy drugs to attack cancer cells while simultaneously shielding those drugs from the rest of your body.

Antioxidant Effects

Oxidation is a normal chemical process that happens in your body. Disruptions in this process through things like stress, alcohol consumption, and smoking, cause highly unstable and damaging molecules to form.

Antihistamine Effects

Vitamin C has been shown to have a general antihistaminic effect and decrease bronchial responsiveness overall. Free radicals contribute to the cause of airway obstruction- like in asthma patients. Vitamin C is known to be a “radical scavenger” that doesn’t hurt the body.
