When Oranges Become Apples: What Your Oncologist Won't Tell You About IV Vitamin C and Cancer
What is high-dose IV vitamin C therapy, and can it help you in your cancer journey?
In When Oranges Become Apples, Dr. Steve Rallis takes readers on a compelling clinical journey that explains how vitamin C, when administered intravenously at high doses, changes its nature from a potent antioxidant to powerful anti-cancer therapy. Discover how IV vitamin C can enhance the effectiveness of chemotherapy or radiation and reduce its toxicity. In these pages, you'll learn how to create a comprehensive treatment plan that helps disable cancer's metabolic machinery, which lab tests are required to ensure safety, and how to best assess progress and improvement in your cancer journey. In language accessible to both patients and doctors, and through actual case examples, Dr. Rallis helps make this complementary cancer therapy less mysterious and more tangible.
Critical Praise for When Oranges Become Apples
“Servant leadership is hard to come by these days, but Dr. Rallis has shown time and time again that his authority and expertise as an industry leader and medical professional comes from a place of deep compassion for his patients and the community as a whole. Through our work together on the scientific advisory committee of the American IV Association, I have been honored to witness firsthand Dr Rallis’ devotion and humility in the way he guides and directs policy and how he cares for his patients. This book is another testament to his unique gift of meeting patients and healthcare practitioners alike exactly where they are, to teach and mentor those who are interested in challenging the status quo of our health.”
– Dr. Chris Seitz MD
“Dr. Rallis does an excellent job of making a complicated topic understandable and relevant to both the layperson and healthcare professional alike. When Oranges Become Apples is a MUST read for anyone faced with the difficult decisions of cancer care and for any healthcare provider looking to optimize patient care and outcomes.”
– Dr. Kristy Prouse MD, FRCSC (OB/GYN) (OB/GYN)
"When Oranges Become Apples is more than a book. It's a conglomerate of Dr. Rallis's caring personality, knowledge, experiences, real-life patients, providers, research, and more – all wrapped up in an intellectually well-organized explanation of High Dose Vitamin C therapy for all. Compassionate, brilliant, stunning, feeling, factual, and evolutionary all come to mind."

Cancer Fighter
I am currently on a cancer journey and God led me to do an integrative approach. I am so glad He did. I was diagnosed almost a year ago with stage IV breast cancer. It has spread to my bones (a lot of them). My traditional oncologist gave me the term ‘palliative care’. I have changed a lot of things in my life from diet to water to the things I use everyday. I will say this, I have never felt better. I have lost 50 lbs, much needed, and I have been a caddy (carrying my sons or husbands golf clubs on my back) for many rounds of golf. I have also grown so much closer to God and this book just validates everything I am doing. I was even shocked to see the RGCC testing get mentioned! This is the protocol I use. I am happy to say that my breast tumor, which was very large, is no longer there!! Completely gone!! And all of my other areas in my bones are either gone, or shrinking. Praise the Lord!!
