A University of Otago study published in the latest edition of the Cancer Research journal has found that Vitamin C may help fight cancer.
The study showed that tumours had 40 percent less vitamin C than the surrounding normal tissue. The findings indicate that Vitamin C could limit the rate of tumour growth, increase responsiveness to chemotherapy, and prevent the formation of solid tumours.
Associate Professor Margreet Vissers, who led the research, told the New Zealand Herald "Our results offer a promising and simple intervention to help in our fight against cancer, at the level of both prevention and cure."
