Treatment approaches which help to increase the oxygen capacity in the body may provide additional value in cancer care. There is a belief that, in part, a low oxygen environment within the cancer environment and tumour may contribute to an adaptive response leading to a smarter cancer.
Moreover, there is research to suggest that both chemotherapy and radiation may work better when the oxygen content is higher within the tumour environment. In addition, following conventional treatment some patients may have unwanted side-effects which may be long lasting and the use of oxygen-based or oxidative therapies may hold value in speeding up the recovery process or to minimize complications down the road.
At LEMMO Integrated Cancer Care Inc, we use treatments such as ozone, hydrogen peroxide, and customized intravenous protocols which may contain DMSO and vitamin C to assist in increasing the oxygen content within the body and cancer microenvironment.
Studies & further reading
Selected publications for patients who want to explore the research. Each finding applies to the study’s own population, protocol and stage of evidence; your care team can help you understand what may be relevant to you.
This preliminary open-label study reports symptom experience in people with advanced cancer pain receiving an intravenous DMSO and sodium bicarbonate protocol. The findings invite controlled follow-up research.
This report describes short-term symptom improvement after an intravenous ascorbic acid and hydrogen peroxide protocol in people with chikungunya. It is a non-cancer study that offers an early clinical observation.
