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.
Table 3: Hoffer's Regime

Type Cancer:................Slow-Growing..........Rapid

Vitamin A....................10,000 IU..................50,000 IU
Beta-carotene...............10,000 IU..................5,000 IU
Vitamin B-3...................1,500 mg..................3,000 mg
Vitamin complex .............B-50.......................B-100
Vitamin C...................12,000 mg..............to bowel tolerance
Vitamin E.....................800 IU........................1,600 IU
Selenium......................200 mcg.......................600 mcg
Zinc............................50 mg...........................220 mg

Quote:
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.

Default List seems to be in need of updating

I don't see vitamin D3. I think Hoffer's list is outdated. There is probably a dozen other supplements that I would add to his list. There are couple herbs and mushrooms too that would aid immensely.
