Such fear surrounds it. Experts say it will never be cured because malignancies are caused by so many factors -- viruses, inflammation, toxins, poor immunity, etc. The sole approach to cancer treatment is to kill the cancer cell, either by surgical removal or toxic treatment (chemicals or radiation). These harsh treatments often lead to the demise of the patient before the malignancy produces a mortal conclusion. None of the current conventional treatments for cancer addresses its cause. Because of this, recurrence rates are high. Sadly, after more than 30 years and billions of dollars of research, the cancer mortality rates have not dropped overall. Some patients, knowing this, begin a search on their own for alternatives, such as treatments in Mexico, or they hear about laetrile (amygdalin, apricot pits), or Essiac tea. They are now on an unguided path. Told by their doctors that vitamins may interfere with treatment, they are torn between complying with their doctor and listening to others whisper in their ear about someone who overcame cancer with some alternative treatment. It's so difficult to know whom to trust, especially when burdened by testing, doctor visits, and the pain of knowing an abnormal growth is taking over inside one's body. .. Block new blood vessels Drug companies are searching for a common factor that is involved in all tumors. Drugs are under testing that block the formation of new blood vessels (neovascularization, or angiogenesis) that feed the tumor nutrients. Patients are never told that vitamin D, bioflavonoids like green tea, grape seed extract and quercetin, are potent, natural, non-prescription anti-angiogenesis agents. Breast, prostate and colon cancer rates are higher in geographic areas where there is cloud cover for many months of the year (northern latitudes) and natural vitamin D production via solar ultraviolet radiation skin exposure is impaired. Many drug companies are working to make synthetic varieties to vitamin D to treat cancer. Cancer patients can purchase natural vitamin D3 cheaply at health food stores. Gene therapy Another promising cancer treatment patients may hear about is gene therapy. To date, gene therapy has not produced one cure for any disease. Some gene therapy experiments have produced mortal side effects. Mutations of DNA, the genetic material in cells, are healed with folic acid, a B vitamin that is required for the formation of DNA. In fact, one of the commonly-used cancer drugs is an anti-folic acid agent that causes cells to die. The problem is that it also causes healthy cells to die off as well. This is why oncologists say vitamins interfere with treatment. How will the cells ever return to normal without folic acid? Mutations within the mitochondria of cells are another common factor in malignancies. The mitochondria are small bodies within cells that surround the cell nucleus and produce all the cellular energy. They are the cell's atomic power plants. Coenzyme Q10 is a natural mitochondrial antioxidant that thwarts mutations in the mitochondria. It is another natural cancer therapy agent. Natural gene therapy can be performed with folic acid and coenzyme Q10. Blocking the spread of tumors (metastasis) Still, we search for a knock out drop, a remedy that will shrink tumors and make them disappear. Surgery, chemotherapy and radiation therapy all shrink tumors, but they haven't increased survival rates. The gold standard for cancer treatment is survival, not the size of the tumor. Survival rates are fairly high as long as tumors don't spread (a process called metastasis). Once linked to newly-formed blood vessels, tumors release malignant cells into the blood circulation where they are challenged by tumor fighting cells of the immune system (natural killer cells, phagocytes, thymus cells and others). This is why the immune system is important. Some natural agents, like echinacea or medicinal mushrooms (maitake, agaricus and others) are sometimes employed to boost immunity. It is unlikely that a tumor cell will survive against the immune system. Tumors cells must stop in one location for 20 minutes to begin to colonize in another location. What would make tumor cells stop within the fast-moving circulatory system? A blood clot. The clot works like stickly fly-paper to catch tumor cells and start a new tumor-cell colony. Nearly all cancer patients exhibit a tendency towards thick blood. This is well documented in the medical literature, yet not one oncologist addresses this issue. In 1979 a British researcher studied 532 of his patients taking blood-thinning medications for 12 years. Seventeen of these patients developed tumors, but none spread to another location, they remained local. Cancer patients should know that vitamin E, fish oil or flaxseed oil, magnesium and garlic are all natural agents that help to thin the blood and prevent the spread of tumors. A cure for the metastatic form of cancer was published in 1979, but the world missed it. The antidote to cancer: chelation Still, cancers grow, and they wreak their havoc in the brain, prostate, breast, lung and elsewhere. All cancers exhibit a common phenomenon -- - the massive arrival of iron and copper at the tumor site. These metallic minerals are rusting agents (oxidants). They are apparently sent to the tumor site as part of the healing mechanism to kill off any undesirable viruses or bacteria. Immune-fighting cells, the phagocytes, over- respond to the cellular chaos and arrive in such large numbers at the tumor site, they also begin to dump iron and copper. The result is destruction of the surrounding tissues and eventually loss of function of the affected organ. Another problem is that iron feeds tumor cells. Iron is a growth factor for viruses, bacteria, fungi and tumor cells. Take away the iron and copper and you stop tumor growth and shrink the tumor. Some anti- cancer drugs are iron-binders, such as the mycin drugs (Adriamycin), but they also produce mortal side effects. How can iron and copper be removed from the body? Chelation therapy. Chelation refers to removal (a claw) of minerals. The body performs its own chelation by producing iron-binding molecules (ferritin, transferrin, lactoferrin). These binders are often overwhelmed by the iron. Transferrin transports excess iron back to the liver, which is where most tumors spread first. Glutathione The body actually performs its own chelation on heavy metals (cadmium, lead, mercury) with glutathione. A healthy liver produces a backup supply of glutathione when supplied sulfur. Glutathione is nature's universal antioxidant. Foods such as asparagus, garlic, onions and eggs are rich in sulfur and boost glutathione levels, as do sulfur-bearing food supplements such as alpha lipoic acid, N-acetyl cysteine and taurine. IP6 rice bran extract Alternative doctors perform chelation intravenously with a mild mineral chelator called EDTA. But this approach is time-consuming and costly, and the tumor grows in between treatments. The answer is to use nature's most powerful antioxidant and mineral chelator, phytic acid, also called inositol hexaphosphate (IP6), a component of seeds and whole grains. IP6 is a 6-sided molecule that works like a magnet to selectively remove iron, copper, calcium, and heavy metals, while leaving essential electrolyte minerals such as potassium and sodium. When extracted from rice bran, IP6 can be taken orally to perform chelation therapy at home. IP6 should be consumed in between meals so as not to interfere with mineral absorption from foods. It should only be taken with water, as vitamin C in juices interferes with its action. Anemic individuals will feel weak after taking IP6. (IP6 should NOT be taken by pregnant women, or with caution in low-dose by growing children who need minerals). A decade of research with animals reveals that IP6 shrinks all types of tumors (brain, lung, prostate, breast, liver, colon) when given to animals in their drinking water. A therapeutic daily dose for adults would be about 2400-4800 milligrams taken in one sitting. Or a maintenance or preventive dose might be 1000-1600 milligrams daily. IP6 is the most potent anti-cancer weapon on the planet. It is available at health food stores. All IP6 is currently produced by Tsuno Foods of Wakayama, Japan, and the claim that added inositol improves natural killer cell function is poorly founded. Total regimen A comprehensive anti-cancer regimen of natural agents would include: Vitamin D3, 5000+ IU Folic acid 800 mcg Coenzyme Q10 100-200 mg Quercetin + vitamin C 2000 mg Flaxseed oil 2500 mg Magnesium 1,000 mg Garlic capsules or fresh clove Vitamin E 400-800 IU Alpha lipoic acid 200-300 mg IP6 rice bran extract in doses described above, in between meals (don't take with vitamin C at the same time) Other measures: Pure unchlorinated drinking water Plenty of sunlight to produce natural vitamin D No artificial sweeteners No hydrogenated oils No processsed food No alcohol, tobacco Foods of organic origin JoAnn Guest jgu- Friendsforhea- DietaryTi- http://www.geocities.com/mrsjoguest/Botanicals.html http://www.geocities.com/mrsjoguest/AIM.html *theaimcompanies* -Wisdom of the past,Food of the future- " Health is not a Medical Issue " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
