Biological treatment

Vitamin C is one of the biological treatments used at Verita Life. When taken at a physiological dose (orally) it acts as an antioxidant - donating electrons, scavenging for free radicals and supporting normal cell function and collagen/immune biology. When taken at a pharmacological dose (intravenously) it acts as a pro-oxidant, generating sustained hydrogen peroxide that is selectively toxic to tumour cells rather than systemic oxidative stress.

High dose Vitamin C infusions result in high concentrations of this hydrogen peroxide. These high concentrations damage cancer cell’s DNA and mitochondria and have a sort of destabilising effect that helps break down the cells and destroys the cancer. Alongside other cancer-fighting therapies, High Dose Vitamin C injections can significantly reduce the effect of cancerous cells.

Ask which substance is proposed, its treatment goal, and the evidence relevant to your diagnosis. Kidney function, other medicines, and specific blood conditions may affect whether an infusion is appropriate.

We review proposed therapies alongside your existing oncology treatment. Bring recent blood results and details of supplements or infusions received elsewhere so the discussion covers the complete plan.
