Re: Vitamin c may have undesired action



There is little point in taking vitamin C supplements. The body simply will
not absorb it. However, there are a number of studies indicating injecting
vitamin C, to overcome the but absorption problem, can be effective against
some cancers. At very high doses, vitamin C becomes a pro-oxidant,
particularly in the presence of free iron(haber-weiss).

PHILADELPHIA In pre-clinical studies, vitamin C appears to
substantially reduce the effectiveness of anticancer drugs, say
researchers at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center.

Just remember, most people aren't being treated for cancer.
This why the Doctors should ask patients about their vitamin
regimens and patients should tell them.
