Re: Other things you can do when dealing with brain mets

Vitamin C IV Infusions

Using IV infusions with a qualified and trained practitioner, one is able to get vitamin C levels to be much higher in the body than can happen via oral methods. IV vitamin C must be done slowly in order that it doesn't result in clumping, and a individual tolerance must be established before a higher dosage can be used. They also need to do a blood test first to see if you are unable to take vitamin C in this manner, an issue for those of Mediterranean descent who have the fava bean allergy I believe.

The cerebellum uses a lot of vitamin C in both its development and how it operates normally.

If one is on a ketogenic diet it improves what they can do, including expanding options to drive Vitamin C into cells using hyperbaric treatment (HBOT).

Studies have shown that vitamin C can increase protection of healthy cells and increase apoptosis in cancerous cells. It is possible that given an hour before radiation treatment that this can be enhanced when giving rads to brain mets.

Vitamin C is important in the body in tissue healing including connective tissue formation.
