Study Reports Vitamin C and DMSO Skin Cancer Results
Original: A new study reports promising results using vitamin C + DMSO for skin # cancer , including 56% elimination in 12 weeks a
A new study reports that a combination of vitamin C and DMSO, a solvent used to carry drugs through the skin, eliminated skin cancer lesions in 56% of cases within 12 weeks, with 94% of patients avoiding surgery. Related research suggests DMSO can enhance delivery of anticancer drugs directly into tumors. The findings are drawing attention and skepticism, since skin cancer is normally treated surgically and such results would be significant if confirmed by larger trials.
Why now: The reported 56% elimination rate and claim that most patients avoided surgery challenge standard surgical treatment of skin cancer, sparking debate about unproven therapies.
