The relationship between vitamin C and health is controversial. Double Nobel Prize winner, Linus Pauling, argued that ascorbate could prevent or cure heart disease, stroke, cancer and infections. Conventional experts disagreed, disparaging supplements in favour of fruits and vegetables. This book presents a new model, describing the action of vitamin C in health and disease. It demonstrates conclusively that the establishment has misinterpreted the evidence, potentially resulting in epidemic levels of avoidable disease. The dynamic flow model explains the current results and points the way for future experiments. Vitamin C supplementation could eradicate many diseases. In pharmacological doses, it could cure the major killers of the industrialised world. Failure to test these ideas may condemn countless people to chronic illness and premature death.

The book explores an orthomolecular approach to cancer therapy, emphasizing the role of dietary interventions in managing and potentially controlling cancer. It presents insights into how specific nutritional strategies can impact cancer treatment and overall health, highlighting the importance of personalized nutrition in combating the disease.

The book delves into the biological mechanisms of cancer, illustrating how it arises when cells bypass the body's regulatory systems, reverting to behaviors reminiscent of their single-celled ancestors. It highlights the role of oxidative damage in initiating these changes, leading to abnormal cell division. Additionally, the text discusses strategies for eradicating cancer, providing insights into both its development and potential solutions.

Focusing on the root causes of cardiovascular disease, the book highlights inflammation and oxidation in artery walls. It offers insights into treatment and prevention that prioritize safe alternatives to traditional medications and surgeries.

The author empowers individuals to take control of their cardiovascular wellness, demonstrating that heart attacks and strokes are not unavoidable aspects of aging.
