Vitamin C May Help Halt the Progression of Blood Cancer

According to a latest study conducted by the experts at the New York University, vitamin C injections may help kill faulty cells present in the bone marrow, this can help plateau the growth of cancer cells in blood. Such cancers cause anemia, infection risk, and bleeding as abnormal stem cells multiply in the bone marrow until they interfere with blood cell production. "We are excited by the prospect that high-dose vitamin C might become a safe treatment for blood diseases caused by TET2-deficient leukemia stem cells, most likely in combination with other targeted therapies," said a Prof.

Vitamin C has long been associated with strengthening immunity and fighting infections, bacterial and viral invasion. Regular consumption of vitamin C has also been tied to better management of life-threatening diseases like cancer. Here's a look at some of the top reasons why you must load up on vitamin C.

"There are many health benefits of Vitamin C. From combating stroke to healing wounds, Vitamin C also helps in the absorption of iron by the body. This is why it's suggested to pair foods full of Vitamin C with iron-rich foods," notes a nutritionist.
