High-Dose IV Vitamin C for Cancer Support:

High-dose intravenous Vitamin C is gaining attention as a complementary cancer therapy (reference). At therapeutic levels (up to 1.5g/kg body weight), Vitamin C may help selectively target cancer cells by producing oxidative stress through hydrogen peroxide, leaving healthy cells unharmed. It has also been shown to enhance the effectiveness of radiation therapy by increasing tumour sensitivity. Here is a study​ looking at this synergistic effect. 

​

At Leicester Ozone Clinic, we have the technical ability and the clinical knowledge to deliver such high doses of vitamin C. However, we make no claims. Our vitamin C blog will provide more information about this form of therapy and its place among other alternative cancer therapies.​​​

Ingredients

L-Ascorbic acid (the active form of vitamin C).
 

​

Unique features

• We source our vitamin C directly from international pharmaceutical companies to ensure it is the highest grade.

• We only use L-ascorbate (not D-ascorbate), which is the naturally occurring form of vitamin C and the most active. 

• We measure the level of vitamin C in the blood during and at the end of the infusion to determine the appropriate dose and infusion rate needed to achieve the desired effect.

• For very high doses, we use the Riordan clinic protocol. 

• We continuously monitor patients one-to-one, especially during very high-dose vitamin C infusions.​

• For your convenience, we can measure G6PD (see below) in the clinic using our state-of-the-art Point-of-Care equipment.
