(Off Topic for some groups)... RE: [sungazing] Vitamin C & Linus ing alternative view... Raw Food Diet & Cancer...

[Guest guest]

Some of you may find this statement interesting about Linus ings'

research:

..At the time, Linus was promoting his claim that " 75% of all cancer can be

prevented and cured by vitamin C alone. " This claim proved to be without

experimental foundation and not true, although the possibility that modest

doses of vitamin C somewhat improve resistance to cancer has never been

adequately tested. The dose response curve of vitamin C vs. mouse squamous

cell carcinoma is shown in the paper below. Vitamin C increased the rate of

growth of cancer at human equivalents of 1 to 5 grams per day, but

suppressed the cancer growth rate at doses on the order of 100 grams per day

(near the lethal dose), as do other measures of malnutrition.

I accessed this from " The Oregon Institute of Science and Medicine " site:

bottom left menu bar area)

This is an excellent site, BTW. Explore the different links to get more

detailed information. There is a good discussion of beating cancer with a

diet of raw fruits and vegetables.

Hi all,

..Vit C for example. Read the Linus ing records and find out how well

those ideas work for some issues. That's only one example...
