High-Dose Intravenous Vitamin C Boosts Chemo Sensitivity in Ovarian Cancer
Dr. Kumar’s Insight
In this study researchers combined high-dose IV vitamin C with standard chemo drugs. They found that vitamin C helped chemo kill more cancer cells in lab tests and mice. Patients had fewer side effects when vitamin C was added. This suggests that adding vitamin C could help patients tolerate chemo better and might improve outcomes.
Key Points
✔ IV vitamin C made chemo drugs more effective in lab cells and mouse models.
✔ Patients had fewer mild and moderate side effects with vitamin C added.
✔ High-dose vitamin C was safe and did not add severe side effects.
