At Greater Wellness Clinic, we believe in utilizing innovative and evidence-based treatments to help our patients achieve optimal health and wellness. One such treatment is vitamin C IV therapy. The use of vitamin C for its potential health benefits has a long history, dating back to the 2nd century AD when the Greek physician Galen first recommended the consumption of vitamin C-rich foods to treat scurvy. In the 1970s, Linus Pauling, a two-time Nobel Prize winner, proposed the use of high doses of vitamin C as a potential treatment for cancer.
Since then, numerous studies have been conducted to investigate the potential benefits of vitamin C infusion therapy, particularly for cancer patients. While the exact mechanisms behind how vitamin C may help in the treatment of cancer are not yet fully understood, there is evidence to suggest that high doses of vitamin C can be toxic to cancer cells while having minimal effects on healthy cells. This has led to the use of vitamin C IV infusions as a complementary therapy to conventional cancer treatments such as chemotherapy and radiation therapy.
At Greater Wellness Clinic, we offer high-dose vitamin C IV infusions as part of our comprehensive approach to patient care. While more research is needed to fully understand the effects of vitamin C IV therapy, many patients and healthcare providers have reported positive results in reducing symptoms and improving quality of life for cancer patients. We are committed to providing the latest and most effective treatments to help our patients achieve greater wellness.
