Ascorbic Acid (Vit. C) as a Positive Effective Factor to Treatment of Breast Cancer Patients

Abstract

Breast cancer is a prominent cause of mortality and the most prevalent malignancy in women. Numerous pharmacological treatments that have enabled the tumor to be cured and resolved are currently available. The use of complementary medicine is increasing due to the various side effects of cancer treatments, with studies exploring high-dose intravenous vitamin C injections to enhance anticancer effectiveness and reduce side effects in patients. This study delves at vitamin C's function in cancer therapy, proposing that large dosages could lessen the side effects of pharmaceutical therapies while increasing their efficacy for breast cancer patients.
