The Ultimate Cancer Conspiracy;

Vitamin B17 and Laetrile

by Joe Vialls

 

During 1950 after many years of research, a dedicated biochemist by

the name of Dr. Ernst T. Krebs, Jr., isolated a new vitamin that he

numbered B17 and called 'Laetrile'. As the years rolled by, thousands

became convinced that Krebs had finally found the complete control for

all cancers, a conviction that even more people share today. Back in

1950 Ernst Krebs could have had little idea of the hornet's nest he

was about to stir up. The pharmaceutical multinationals, unable to

patent or claim exclusive rights to the vitamin, launched a propaganda

attack of unprecedented viciousness against B17, despite the fact that

hard proof of its efficiency in controlling all forms of cancer

surrounds us in overwhelming abundance.

 

In his brilliantly researched 1974 book World Without Cancer,

researcher and author G. Edward Griffin explains the trophoblastic

theory of cancer proposed by Professor John Beard of Edinburgh

University, which states that certain pre-embryonic cells in pregnancy

differ in no discernible way from highly-malignant cancer cells.

Edwards Griffin continues:

 

" The trophoblast in pregnancy indeed does exhibit all the classical

characteristics of cancer. It spreads and multiplies rapidly as it

eats its way into the uterus wall preparing a place where the embryo

can attach itself for maternal protection and nourishment. "

 

The trophoblast is formed in a chain reaction by another cell that

Griffin simplifies down to the 'total life' cell, which has the total

capacity to evolve into any organ or tissue, or a complete embryo.

When the total life cell is triggered into producing trophoblast by

contact with the hormone estrogen, present in both males and females,

one of two different things happens. In the case of pregnancy the

result is conventional development of a placenta and umbilical cord.

If the trophoblast is triggered as part of a healing process however,

the result is cancer or, as Edward Griffin cautions: " To be more

accurate, we should say it is cancer if the healing process is not

terminated upon completion of its task. "

 

Stunning proof of this claim is readily available. All trophoblast

cells produce a unique hormone called the chorionic gonadotrophic

(CGH) which is easily detected in urine. Thus if a person is either

pregnant or has cancer, a simple CGH pregnancy test should confirm

either or both. It does, with an accuracy of better than 92% in all

cases. If the urine sample shows positive it means either normal

pregnancy or abnormal malignant cancer. Griffin notes: " If the patient

is a woman, she either is pregnant or has cancer. If he is a man,

cancer can be the only cause. " So why all of the expensive, dangerous

biopsies carried to 'detect' cancerous growths? One can only assume

that medicare pays doctors a larger fee for biopsies than pregnancy tests.

 

So how is it that any of us gets cancer in the first place. Is it

exposure to cigarette smoking, intense sunlight or perhaps the effect

of toxic food additives? Dr. Krebs thinks not. All of the hard

biochemical evidence points to the fact that cancer is a simple

deficiency disease of vitamin B17, long ago removed from our highly

refined, western diets. Krebs postulates that the so-called

'carcinogens' are merely stress triggers that finally expose the B17

deficiency with devastating effect.

 

The proof Krebs has presented over the years to support his claim is

impressive. Centuries ago we used to eat millet bread, rich in B17,

but now we chew our way through wheat which has none at all. For

generations our grandmothers used to carefully crush the seeds of

plums, greengages, cherries, apples, apricots and other members of the

botanical family Rosaceae, and diligently mix them with their home

made jams and preserves. Grandma probably didn't know why she was

doing it, but the seeds of all these fruits are the most potent source

of B17 in the world. In the tropics, large quantities of B17 are found

in cassava, also known as tapioca. When did you last eat some?

 

Independent research has also proved that a Himalayan tribe known as

the 'Hunza' never contract cancer of any kind so long as they stick to

their native diet which is exceptionally high in both apricots and

millet. However, once exposed to western diets they become as

vulnerable as the rest of us.

 

The implications of these findings are staggering of course. If we

managed to control Scurvy (vitamin C deficiency) centuries ago, how is

it we cannot do the same for cancer today? The fact of the matter is

that we could if our respective governments would allow it.

Unfortunately most governments have buckled under the pressure exerted

by the pharmaceutical multinationals, the American Food & Drug

Administration, and the American Medical Association. All three have

mounted highly successful 'scare' campaigns based on the fact that

vitamin B17 contains quantities of 'deadly' cyanide; conveniently

forgetting that vitamin B12 also contains significant quantities of

cyanide, and has long been available in health food shops world-wide.

 

Dr. Kreb's B17 Laetrile was derived from apricot seeds and then

synthesized into crystalline form using his own unique process.

Suddenly, the American FDA bombarded the media with a story about an

unfortunate couple who had poisoned themselves by eating raw apricot

seeds in San Francisco. The story made headline news across the U.S.A.

although several suspicious journalists never managed to establish the

identity of the unfortunate couple, despite many determined attempts.

But the multinational pharmaceutical/FDA boot had been put in with a

vengeance. From that point onwards eating apricot seeds or B17

Laetrile became synonymous with committing suicide...

 

Back in the fifties Dr. Ernst Krebs proved beyond doubt that B17 was

completely harmless to humans in the most convincing way possible.

After testing the vitamin on animals, he filled a large hypodermic

with a mega-dose which he then injected into his own arm! Drastic

perhaps, but the adventurous Dr. Krebs is still alive and well today.

 

The vitamin is harmless to healthy tissue for a very simple reason:

Each molecule of B17 contains one unit of cyanide, one unit of

benzaldehyde and two of glucose (sugar) tightly locked together. In

order for the cyanide to become dangerous it is first necessary to

'unlock' the molecule to release it, a trick that can only be

performed by an enzyme called beta-glucosidase. This enzyme is present

all over the body in minute quantities, but in huge quantities (up to

100 times as high) at cancerous tumour sites.

 

Thus the cyanide is released only at the cancer site with drastic

results, which become utterly devastating to the cancer cells because

the benzaldehyde unit also unlocks at the same time. Benzaldehyde is a

deadly poison in its own right, which then acts synergistically with

the cyanide to produce a poison 100 times more deadly than either in

isolation. The combined effect on the cancer cells is best left to the

imagination.

 

But what about danger to the rest of the body's cells? Another enzyme,

rhodanese, always present in larger quantities than the unlocking

enzyme beta-glucosidase in healthy tissues has the easy ability to

completely break down both cyanide and benzaldehyde into beneficial

body products. Predictably perhaps, malignant cancer cells contain no

rhodanese at all, leaving them completely at the mercy of the cyanide

and benzaldehyde.

 

Any physician reading this article will probably be shaking with

self-righteous indignation at this stage, muttering to himself: 'Yes,

but where is the PROOF???'

 

Right here! Most people have heard of 'spontaneous remission', where

the cancer simply goes away, hopefully never to reappear. Spontaneous

remissions are exceedingly rare and vary from one form of cancer to

another. One virulent variety known as testicular chorionepithelioma

has never been known to produce a single spontaneous remission.

Perhaps for that precise reason, Dr. Krebs singled it out for special

attention when proving the effectiveness of B17 Laetrile in providing

total control for cancers. As Edward Griffin recounts:

 

" In a banquet speech in San Francisco on November 19, 1967, Dr. Ernst

T. Krebs, Jr., briefly reviewed six such cases. Then he added:

 

Now there is an advantage in not having had prior radiation, because

if you have not received prior radiation that has failed, then you

cannot enjoy the imagined benefits of the delayed effects of prior

radiation. So this boy falls into the category of the " spontaneous

regression... "

 

And when we look at this scientifically, we know that spontaneous

regression occurs in fewer than one in 150,000 cases of cancer. The

statistical possibility of spontaneous regression accounting for the

complete resolution of successive cases of testicular

chorionepithelioma is far greater than the statistical improbability

of the sun not rising tomorrow morning. "

 

Wisely perhaps, Griffin notes that because of the adverse publicity

against B17 Laetrile, and because of the difficulties in obtaining the

'banned' substance, most cancer sufferers turn to the vitamin as a

last resort, long after they have been burned by radiation therapy,

and/or poisoned by chemotherapy. He points out that once the body

organs have been savagely damaged in this way, there is little if any

chance of B17 Laetrile being able to effect a cure. The body is simply

too far gone.

 

When World Without Cancer was written back in 1974, B17 Laetrile was

freely available in Australia. It is not now. A recent check with the

Australian Cancer Foundation and health authorities revealed that

nowadays Canberra considers each individual case on its merits, then

decides whether the patient should be allowed to import sufficient of

the material for his or her own personal use. If he or she manages to

jump that hurdle, it is then his or her own responsibility to find a

doctor prepared to inject it. Seemingly the multinational

pharmaceutical lobbyists managed to get to our politicians before Dr.

Krebs could get to the Australian public. Radiation and chemotherapy

are highly profitable, and oncologists have to make a decent living...

 

Only a few months ago Australian nationwide television carried the

delightful information that two out of every three Australians can

expect to suffer skin cancer at least once during their lifetimes. On

the massive evidence provided by Dr. Ernst Krebs, Jr. and G. Edward

Griffin, that figure could be crushed to a tiny percentage of the

anticipated numbers if Australians were allowed freedom of choice

where B17 Laetrile is concerned. It is time for Australians to take a

stand on this lethal issue.
