Guest guest Posted May 20, 2008 Report Share Posted May 20, 2008 This is the way I've been taught it to, Tony. However, there are therapies in which the oxidation of cancer cells does kill them....Paw Paw is one. Interestingly enough, Chia Oil is the only oil that comes with its own antioxidants: thus it has a much longer shelf life than flax oil and is much more stabile. However, I still add lemon to my recipes to protect the oils and keep them from going rancid too soon. David In a message dated 5/20/2008 12:26:04 P.M.

Confusing isn't it? The bottom line to me is that if a person follows my suggested anti-cancer protocol, which includes both added oxygen via supplementation and the raw fruits and vegetables, along with healthy antioxidants, the overall effect of the oxygen and antioxidants is moot because the protocol works, and works better than anything else I am aware of. oleander soup , " Dr. Loretta Lanphier " <drlanphier wrote: > > Sorry.
