Brief Answer:
sufficient evidence is not available for Gc-MAF
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,I understand your concern.
I have gone through your query.
In my opinion vitamin C is an anti oxidant agent which is very good as a supportive treatment in many cancers.
So you can use vitamin C without any problem.
Regarding Gc-MAF lot of research is going on in central and southeast asia.But most of the clinical trials are only in the beginning phase.
So as per the present evidence and research available treatment with Gc-MAF is not at all suggestable.
So I suggest you to be under the guidance of your oncologist.
Hope this satisfies your query.
Feel free to discuss furthur.
Best regards...Dr.Srilatha
