Natural Treatment DOUBLES Pancreatic Cancer Survival!?
Pancreatic cancer is one of the deadliest cancers around.
The 5-year survival rate is a measly 12 percent—but in patients with late-stage metastatic cancer, the survival time can be as little as eight months.
So, when I came across a study showing a natural treatment could DOUBLE survival time in patients with late-stage pancreatic cancer—you can bet I took notice.
It’s a simple treatment that any oncologist can administer—so why aren’t they?
I’ll share everything you need to know… and exactly what you need to ask for.
This small but impressive study included 34 patients with stage 4 metastatic pancreatic cancer.
Stage 4 means that the cancer already spread to other parts of the body and is considered incurable.
The goal at this point is to improve survival time AND quality of life.
For the study, the patients received either standard chemotherapy or chemo plus infusions of high-dose vitamin C.
The average survival time in the standard chemo group was eight months.
However, those who also received IV vitamin C (IVC) survived an average of 16 months.
That’s eight more months to spend with the people you love… to be there for special moments like birthdays, graduations, and weddings.
And people receiving IVC didn’t just live longer… they lived BETTER.
They felt better overall, had fewer side effects, and tolerated more treatment.
It seems that once vitamin C is in the blood at these high concentrations, it makes cancer cells more vulnerable to chemo and radiation.
This isn’t an isolated study showing IVC’s life-extending potential either.
In fact, another study showed that C extends survival in patients with glioblastoma, another deadly cancer.
The next step is to see if IVC can produce the same results in non-small cell lung cancer.
Keep in mind it’s not possible to consume enough oral vitamin C to achieve the high blood levels achieved with IVC. So, this treatment must be administered by a medical professional.
Any cancer doctor can administer the treatment—but most don’t.
Why? Because natural treatments like IVC aren’t considered the “standard of care” for cancer treatment and they haven’t been approved by the FDA.
That means it’s usually not covered by insurance… which may be the REAL reason it’s not used more.
However, many complementary and alternative medicine doctors administer it for cancer patients.
If you’re interested in this type of therapy, visit the website of the American College for Advancement in Medicine to find a practitioner.
IVC isn’t a cancer cure. But I’m on board if it can safely extend survival and quality of life.
