Dr. Gerson felt strongly about the
use of increased amounts of niacin (Vitamin B3) in cancer
patients from the beginning of treatment and without too much
interruption. However after using 50mg six times a day for four
to six months, it should not be diminished too fast.
Niacin helps to bring back sufficient glycogen into the liver
cells. It also helps in protein metabolism, acts to open small
arteries and capillaries (of course it would be discontinued
with any bleeding problems.) It raises electrical potential in
cells. In addition, this information can be found on page 209 of
