Hoffer's Vitamin Therapy For Cancer

Hoffer's Vitamin Therapy For Cancer
Quote:
Multiple Vitamins
Boik advocated multiple compounds rather than single compounds as cancer therapy. Hoffer10 ran such a test beginning in 1977. He gave selenium, zinc, and large amounts of vitamins A, B, C and E to his cancer patients. His primary vitamin was vitamin C at 12,000 mg/day or more. In an early test group of 134 patients, the 33 patients who refused vitamins lived a mean of 2.1 months. However, the 101 patients who chose vitamins lived a mean of 28 months. At the end of the 10-year test, 48 of the vitamin patients were still alive but only two of the non-vitamin patients. The vitamin patients also had less pain from their cancer and no significant side effects from the vitamins. Hoffer asked all of his patients to continue working with their regular
oncologists regarding surgery, radiation and chemotherapy.

The vitamin E should preferably be the natural succinate type. Vitamin D at 200 IU to 400 IU can be included based on Boik's work, the government's recommended daily allowance (RDA) and the work of Lieberman11. Hoffer sometimes included calcium and magnesium.
Hoffer describes a woman who had a pancreatic tumor two inches long. After surgery to remove part of the cancer, Hoffer gave her vitamin C to the point where she almost had diarrhea. This is called the bowel tolerance level. She tried 40,000 mg of vitamin C, but settled on 35,000 mg daily. He added other vitamins and supplements. She followed the program for 5 years before decreasing the vitamins. Eighteen years later she was still well. For pancreatic cancer, Hoffer's therapy is especially noteworthy because there is no known effective conventional therapy for this form of cancer.
