Is this the natural cancer cure we’ve been waiting for?

It’s a cancer treatment that’s been tested and studied for decades — with remarkable results.

The National Cancer Institute (NIH) says that laboratory studies have found it can slow the growth and spread of prostate, pancreatic, liver, colon and many other types of cancer cells.

And in clinical trials, the NIH reports that this natural treatment has improved quality of life for cancer patients, helped with fatigue, nausea, vomiting, pain and loss of appetite, all with “very few” side effects being found.

Other studies over the years have discovered it can give cancer patients with little hope a second chance at life.

But while Big Pharma and the FDA appear to be giving this extraordinary cancer treatment the cold shoulder, researchers at the University of Iowa are going full-steam ahead.

And they may be the ones who will finally bring the curative powers of high-dose IV vitamin C out of the shadows and into hospitals everywhere.

The magic bullet?

Ever since two-time Nobel Prize winner Linus Pauling first championed vitamin C therapy for cancer and numerous other illnesses decades ago, mainstream medicine has been on the attack.

After all, what good is a cure for cancer if pharma isn’t going to profit very handsomely from it?

But despite the dismissive attitude from Big Pharma and the FDA over the years, researchers have forged ahead. And they’ve found that high-dose IV vitamin C therapy (IVC) – both in studies and actual treatment of patients — is often nothing short of amazing.

Currently, researchers at the Holden Comprehensive Cancer Center at the University of Iowa are hard at work documenting exactly why IVC is so effective at killing cancer cells.

They discovered that vitamin C easily breaks down and generates hydrogen peroxide, something that’s very damaging to tissue and DNA. But it turns out that while normal, non-cancerous cells can easily get rid of hydrogen peroxide – or keep the levels very low — cancer cells can’t.

It’s like kryptonite for cancer!

That explains a lot about why it’s such an incredible cancer treatment. And especially how these high levels of vitamin C “do not affect normal tissue, but can be damaging to tumor tissue,” according to Dr. Garry Buettner, who led the new study.

As I said, this isn’t the first time IVC has been a big topic of interest at the University of Iowa.

Two years ago, researchers there reported on laboratory trials that were able to wipe out cancer cells in mice. And they’ve also begun tests on patients with one of the most deadly cancers around – pancreatic cancer.

And last year, studies done at the University of North Carolina found that IVC was an incredibly effective treatment for colon cancer!

One other thing that the Iowa researchers said is that taking vitamin C by mouth won’t give the same cancer-killing effects. That’s because, for one thing, the doses have to be extremely high to be effective, around 500 times higher than what can be taken orally. And second, in order to work, the vitamin C has to “bypass normal gut metabolism” so the body doesn’t eliminate it before it can attack cancer cells.

But while it’s very exciting to hear about such promising research, what if you or a loved one can’t afford to wait?

Well, you don’t have to. Many doctors and even some mainstream hospitals are already using IVC. The University of Kansas Cancer Center, for example, has a vitamin C infusion clinic.
