Guest guest Posted January 26, 2000 Report Share Posted January 26, 2000 Dear Yanky, This is of course, dear friend, why we cannot let ourselves be rushed by our colleagues or circumstances. . . . not to say, of course, that leukemia could be suspected in a child from the outset. . .but the rapid choppy pulse and PEELED red tongue body do point to ying level heat with damage to fluids. It is not our job to diagnose leukemia, necessarily, although an advanced practitioner can determine cancer through pulse and tongue. . . ..but to do the necessary pattern diagnosis and treat accordingly. Then one can refer to an advanced TCM practitioner, MD or other health professional if in doubt. I know this is a controversial conclusion, but I open this up to the group. >jacob gerlitz <jacobgerlitz > >Dear Group, >I would like to share a story with you. I work with a >couple of M.D.'s.

Guest guest Posted January 27, 2000 Report Share Posted January 27, 2000 Thank you for your candor in reporting this experience. I am a first year practitioner and find that I sometimes discount my observations when they register in my " intuition " level of understanding. Learning to pay attention to the intuition is an important goal of my practice-and not feeling rushed to diagnose. Sherril Gold, Dipl. Ac.

Guest guest Posted January 27, 2000 Report Share Posted January 27, 2000 Jacob- I also had a case similar to this a few years ago: Car accident, whiplash, and serious throat swelling on the inside impairing swallowing. Antibiotics didnt touch it, MDs baffled. Bleeding L.I.1 took the swelling down immediately, and Ban Xia Hou Pou tang for a week cleared the case. On the pulse and tongue for children, however, although I agree with the faster pulse, the tongue can also typically show signs of chi deficiency as they are in such a rapid growth period.

Guest guest Posted April 9, 2009 Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 Hi Eva, I am so sorry to hear this, but yet so glad she is open to alternative measures. Of course, Oleander is the most important, and tell her not to forget to do the liver flush, as her liver needs to be strong enough to handle the toxins that the oleander will bring forth. Diet is imperative. No sugar. Above all, Cancer feeds on sugar. She should follow the Budwig Diet and the full diet recommendations. Actually, the entire protocol is important, everything in it strengthens the immune system. As for specifics, hmmmm....... Well, I'm going to Tony handle that. By the way, I have heard that Oleander is quite effective against Leukemia. I wish her my best. oleander soup , Eva Klein-Otis <eklein.otis wrote:>> Hi Tony and ,> > My former pastor's mother in Atlanta has just been diagnosed with Leukemia and according to my best friend, the family seem keen to try alternative measures. I will forward Tony's protocol to them. I know first hand how great it is. I was wondering if there is any other info that is specific for treating Leukemia. And if she can't/won't do the whole protocol, which are the most important items she focus on?> > Thanks in advance,> Eva.> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 9, 2009 Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 There have been seveal messages recently about leukemia. Here is my response: Oleander has had very good success against Leukemia (in fact, some of the very earliest successes by Dr. Ozel when he was developing and using the oleander extract that later came to be patented as Anvirzel, were against leukemia). Besides oleander and all of the lifestyle and diet recommendations, the following items in particular have exhibited strong anti-leukemia results and activity, and if it were me I would not do without a single one of them, and I would take all of them in quantity: Black seed oil (Nigella Sativa) Inositol/IP6 Curcumin Blood Support Tonic Plant Derived Trace Minerals Vitamin D3 (from sunshine and/or supplementation) Google searches for each of the items plus leukemia (except the blood tonic, where the search should be for the individual ingredients in the tonic plus leukemia) will produce links to positive results for their use against leukemia. I would also include the product OxyGen , which should be good against leukemia and virtually all kinds of cancer. All the best, Tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 10, 2009 Report Share Posted April 10, 2009 Of all the cancers, artemisinin is theoretically most effective against leukemia, because leukemia has the highest iron content. I am taking artemisinin for colon cancer, which comes in #2 in terms of iron content. Artemisinin reacts with the excessive iron in cancer to create hydrogen peroxide, which destroys the cancer cells. Several months ago, Dr. LL voiced the opinion that artemisinin was kind of useless. I don't know. When she posted this, I then received a couple of private emails from people who said they had been cured using artemisinin. oleander soup , " Tony " wrote: > > > There have been seveal messages recently about leukemia.

Guest guest Posted April 10, 2009 Report Share Posted April 10, 2009 I've read a lot of conflicting reports on caffiene and cancer. The DCA people believe strongly in lots of caffiene with their DCA protocol, to the point where they take caffiene pills. They also recommend black tea for getting the caffiene. I've also read many people saying " cut out the caffiene completely " because it exhausts the adrenal glands, which are important for fighting cancer. If caffiene is good for fighting cancer, then tea would be far superior to coffee (or heaven forbid soda) because I would think most teas would be alkalizing in their nature, while coffee and soda makes one very acidic. But wouldn't green tea be the best, if one is going to use tea? Or is black tea so heavily alkaline that this is where the benefit is coming from? oleander soup , overloaded wrote: > > Hi I would recommend drinking a lot of black tea my grandfather who I've never met has been diagnosed with leukimia then he went to some doctor and doc didn't have any treatment and another alternative doc told him to drink a lot of strong black tea..he lived for 20 years symptoms free and the next few years they started coming up..and were talking 55-60 years ago > > > > drKumar JK <drkumarj > > Thu, 9 Apr 2009 23:29:12 > <oleander soup > > Re: Leukemia > > > I totally agree with Tony.Please also include Artemesenin an Cemetedine(1200 mg per day).They are specifics in leukaemias. > Dr.Kumar > > > --- On Thu, 4/9/09, Tony wrote: > > > Tony > Leukemia > oleander soup > Thursday, April 9, 2009, 8:15 PM > > > There have been seveal messages recently about leukemia.
