Happiness Through Health Terminal Cancer Patients Improve With Vitamin C II_1#!_II_ AI__A_« By Otto McClarrin Special To The Poet Nobel prize winner Dr. Li nus Pauling says a five-year study of 1,100 terminal cancer patients “clearly demon strates" that high doses of Vitamin C significantly in creased their survival spans and improved the qualty of their lives. On the average, he says, “100 hopelessly terminal pati ents given Vitamin C lived more than four times longer than J.100 equally terminal patients who were not given the vitamin." Dr. Pauling stated further, “Most of those who got Vita min C felt better, their appeti tes returned and they were taken off of morphine and heroin, many of them went back to work. benefits,” organized medicine in general has chosen to- ig nore the study, Pauling stated. Dr. Pauling, winner of the nobel prize for chemistry in 1954 and the Nobel Peace Prize in 1962, is the author of the best-selling book, “Vita min C and the Common Cold. In it, he maintains that the vitamin can prevent colds and influenza if taken in large enough amounts. The cancer study was con ducted at Vale of Leven Dis trict General Hospital at Loch Lomondside, Scotland. Doct ors there began the study in November, 1971, and continu ed it through August 10, 1976, Pauling reported. He and one of the physicians there, Dr. Ewan Cameron, carefully assembled the res ults and co-authored a scienti fic paper on it appvmvoMj» miv ovuuj uc* monstrated that terminal can cer patients who wOre given 10 ~ or more grams - up to 60 grams - a day survived for an average of 210 days after the treatment started. The control group, the 1,000 patients who were not given the vitamin, survived on the average “only 50 days," Paul* ing said. Patients who got Vitamin C not only lived long ger, the quality of life in their last months was greatly im proved, he said. "Most no longer needed pain-killing drugs,” he added. “They were able to eat and sleep well once again. And many went back to work." "Ten percent of the patients who were given Vitamin C seem to be ‘cured’ he added. “They no longer show symp toms of wntfr." Life Insurance Got too much?
