High-Dose Vitamin C: H2O2 Kills Cancer Cells

High-dose vitamin C, given intravenously, acts as a pro-oxidant to generate hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), which selectively kills cancer cells by inducing oxidative stress. Unlike normal cells, cancer cells have high iron levels and rely on aerobic glycolysis, making them vulnerable to H2O2 damage via the Fenton reaction. This triggers apoptosis and ferroptosis, disrupting glycolysis, the […]
