I signed up for a newsletter from vitacost.com (a place that sell vitamins, raw
honey and such). They send out these "health tips" every so often. I thought
was an odd article so I wanted to get others opinions as well, so thanks!!!

Being the suspicious creature I am, I wonder where I could find that article
(couldn't find it through google). It would be good to work out who paid for
this study.
If no further information on this is found I would dismiss the report on
grounds of fear mongering once again(by those who stand to benefit from the
sale of prescribed Vit C).

Vitamin C Plus Fat Might Spur Cancer
Mixing in the stomach, this combo encourages carcinogens, study suggests
(HealthDay News) -- When fat is present in the stomach, vitamin C
transforms from a cancer-fighter to a possible contributor to malignancy, new
research suggests.
Researchers at Western Infirmary in Glasgow, Scotland, analyzed the
interaction between vitamin C and lipid (fat) in the upper stomach, which is
particularly vulnerable to pre-cancerous changes and tumor growth. They focused
on changes in nitrite chemistry.
