STORY AT-A-GLANCE
- Vitamin C has always been vital to immune function, but research data also show it plays an important role in the treatment of several health conditions, including cancer. Since it cannot be patented, it’s likely a threat to Big Pharma and Western medicine’s disease model of care
- From a historical perspective, vitamin C benefits associated with cancer, polio, multiple sclerosis and other damaging diseases have been suppressed, likely since it is effective, cheap and can’t be patented, which means you can’t make money prescribing or manufacturing it
