Ep. 127 – Dose, Source & Strategy: Vitamin C and D for Kids in Cancer Treatment

  1. Ep. 127 – Dose, Source & Strategy: Vitamin C and D for Kids in Cancer Treatment Season Johnson 25:05

Not all vitamins work the same.

What if the difference between helping your child heal… and unintentionally holding them back… comes down to how you’re using something as simple as vitamin C or D?

In this episode, we’re talking about two of the most commonly used nutrients in cancer care(vitamin C and vitamin D) and why dose, source, and strategy matter more than most people realize.

This conversation comes from a live office hours session with Dr. Charles Pennick, where we walk through how these nutrients actually function in the body, the difference between synthetic and whole-food forms, and how to think about dosing safely, especially during active treatment.

We also explore the nuances that often get missed: why vitamin C isn’t just ascorbic acid, how high-dose IV vitamin C works differently than oral forms, and why pairing vitamin D with K2 is essential for proper absorption and safety.

If you’ve ever felt confused about supplements—or wondered if you’re doing “too much” or “not enough”. This episode will help you approach these foundational nutrients with more Clarity and confidence.

Through online programs, speaking engagements, and a podcast, she continues to educate and empower others on how they can use real food and healthy living principles to achieve lifelong, vibrant health and thrive through a cancer diagnosis.
