At An Oasis Of Healing we agree that a primary marker of cancer is chronic inflammation. Using vitamin c therapy reduces inflammation which is why this treatment is part of our comprehensive cancer care program.
This therapy challenges cancer cells at a metabolic level and does no harm to the body unlike conventional chemotherapy. The value and impact of a daily vitamin C supplement as well as high, concentrated doses for acute illnesses is becoming increasingly clear. Studies have already shown the efficacy of liposomal vitamin C in treating infections and as an anti-cancer therapy. Now, another study is confirming its effectiveness against inflammation in cancer patients, one of the primary markers. High levels of inflammation seem to indicate a higher risk of cancer as well as a less hopeful prognosis for healing and recovery. Inflammation impairs the immune system, plays a role in cachexia, lowers toleration of numerous cancer treatments, and generally decreases health and quality of life. The inflammatory response plays a major role in tumor development. Inflammation is a factor during numerous cancer phases including initiation, promotion, invasion and malignant conversion as well as metastasis.
This connection between cancer and inflammation isn’t restricted to just one type of tumor, either. Inflammation can be a factor in the ecosystem of just about all types of neoplastic tissues. The current amount of inflammation in the body can actually predict the chances and length of survival time for numerous types of cancer. Persons that have among the lowest inflammation levels are twice as likely to survive for at least two years with a cancer diagnosis. This study made use of high-dose intravenous vitamin C (IVC) treatments and analyzed their effects. This was the first time this type of treatment was tested and studied specifically for its effects on inflammation in cancer patients. The results found indicate great promise for the use of high-dose intravenous vitamin C treatments to help reduce inflammation in cancer patients, which is one of the major factors of cancer and its progression. Over the past 35 years, the Riordan Clinic has had quite a bit of experience in administering extremely high doses of vitamin C to cancer patients.
These tests for vitamin C have been conducted due to its proven value as a therapeutic and preventative measure. Markers of inflammation such as pro-inflammatory cytokines and C-reactive protein tumor markers showed a positive response to vitamin C treatments, with inflammation reduced significantly. This improvement correlated with reduced tumor size and the hindrance of the cancer’s ability to metastasize. Vitamin C is especially valuable in extremely high doses taken either orally or intravenously. A range of cancers have been proven to benefit from vitamin C treatments, including cancers of the prostate, breast, skin, bladder, lung, pancreas, thyroid, and B-cell lymphoma. This research was conducted by Riordan Clinic scientists and published in the Journal of Translational Medicine. When supplementing with liposomal vitamin C orally for major health issues, 10,000 to 12,000 mg per day should be taken. This dose can be taken in 2,000 to 4,000 mg doses gradually throughout the day to aid absorption.

Copper interferes can damage connective tissue in the body. mucosa and muscles in this area are all connective tissue, as are the tendons and ligaments that support the rectum. For some reason, some people have a weakness in this area, and this may be one factor to consider as a cause of fistulas. related to copper toxicity is zinc deficiency. Zinc, vitamin C, bioflavinoids and other compounds are needed for connective tissue health. Generalized inflammation might also contribute to fissures and fistulas. Common causes for inflammation are low levels of omega-3 fatty acids or vitamin D, too much aluminum or nickel, and high levels of biounavailable forms
of iron, manganese, copper, chromium, selenium and boron. Some doctors are able to heal fissures with botox injections, which relax the muscles of the rectal area. Perhaps the muscles becomes chronically tense, and this may impair circulation and prevent healing in the area. Rather than botox, which is quite toxic, one can use warm or hot sitz baths with Epsom salts. This is a common phenomenon in which circulation or nerve energy is impaired in the pelvic region of the body. The cause may be some kind of childhood trauma that affects this area such as a sexual molestation, rape, or even just article entitled Pelvic Syndrome discusses Unhappiness may contribute to this condition as well. Another possible cause is an infection, particularly a yeast type of infection that may be difficult to identify and heal due to other factors such as copper imbalance. nutritional balancing program with a healthful diet and lifestyle, supplements
as indicated by a properly performed hair mineral analysis, and the use of a near infrared sauna, are all excellent general measures. Coffee enemas or colonic irrigation may not be possible, as they often irritate the fissures. heal with a nutritional balancing program, though I would add the Epsom salt baths described below as this will speed up the healing tremendously in some Fill a bathtub with only one to two inches of hot water. pounds of Epsom salts until they dissolve.

An abscess is usually treated medically by draining it, and then the person is given antibiotics to kill the germs until it heals. This is one option, of course. However, I would suggest using a natural antibiotic only, as the regular medical ones are quite toxic.
