Guest guest Posted September 18, 2009 Report Share Posted September 18, 2009 Hi, Ron, An alternative MD who was helping with my wife recommended scraped beef for cachexia. If you take a sharp knife, and scrape it sideways over a piece of beef, you get a brownish paste that you can eat with a spoon, or dilute it and suck it through a straw. It did help, and he swore by it, claiming he pulled people back from death's door with it, as the protein replaced the protein being pulled out of your tissues by the cancer. Godspeed.
