Disturbing Statistics• Between 1973 and 1999 Cancer deaths increased 30% (17.7% -23% of

population)

• For the first time (2005), cancer has surpassed heart disease as the top killer of Americans under 85….” (Los Angeles Times, Jan. 19, 2005

• 1.3 million diagnosed and 570,000 die annually in US

• In the 25-35 year old age group a recent analysis of the National Cancer Institute statistic showed that survival rates have not increased at all since 1975

“Cancer is the leading disease killer in people age 20 to 39…..more than 70,000 young adults get cancer every year……”

The Wall Street Journal, July 5, 2005, page D1

Ascorbate Findings by RECNAC

• Animals synthesize Vitamin C from glucose in only (4) metabolic steps

• Cancer cells readily absorb and accumulate ascorbate (similar to glucose molecule?)

Vitamin CGlucose

Page 47: The More Than Ten Things You Should Do to Prevent or Treat Cancer

• At adequate concentrations (400+ mg/dl) Vitamin C is selectively toxic to cancer cells

• Vitamin C behaves as pro-oxidant– Interacts with intracellular Fe & Cu– Reaction produces H2 O2

– Cancer cells are deficient in catalase
