cancer at home

Cancer........ what is it? 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
