About one and a half years into my alternative cancer research I had

already run into several instances where I heard about microbes

being

found inside of cancer cells. During this time I just shrugged it

off.

It was not that I didn't believe it, but I couldn't determine

whether

such microbes were a cause of cancer or just an opportunistic

parasite

inside a weakened cell.

Finally, the evidence started to mount, and I started looking deeper

and

deeper into the issue. While reading the book Sick and Tired?, by

Robert

O. Young, PhD, and by looking at several other books, all of the

pieces

of the puzzle were finally put in place. It was perfectly clear that

" cancer microbes " were getting into normal cells and their presence

was

turning the normal cells into anaerobic cells (an anaerobic cell

does

not burn oxygen like a normal cell, rather it ferments glucose to

get

energy). The definition of an anaerobic cell is a " cancer cell. " A

Nobel

Prize was given in 1931 (Otto Heinrich Warburg) for the discovery

that a

cancer cell is anaerobic.

I have seen several different descriptions of this cancer microbe in

the

cancer cell. Some people called it a virus, some a fungus, one

called it

a mould, others called it an acid-fast bacteria (which mutated into

a

fungus) and one called it an amoeba (e.g. trichomonad). Which of

these

is correct? Probably all of them. I should note that this variety is

an

indication of independent research and that everyone was not just

copying an original source. In fact, there were numerous independent

sources of this information, some dating back more than several

decades

(e.g. Dr. Royal Rife, M.D. in the 1930s)!!

So how is it possible that a microbe can be the final cause of

cancer?

Consider this possible explanation:

1) Due to a weakened cell membrane, which can be caused by a

carcinogen

or many other things, a microbe is able to enter inside a normal

cell,

2) The microbe intercepts the glucose entering the cell (most

microbes

eat glucose),

3) The microbe excretes " mycotoxins, " dangerous hormones and perhaps

a

thick slime (mycotoxins are the normal excretions of microbes),

4) Because mycotoxins are very, very acidic, the inside of the cell

becomes highly acidic, which is a characteristic of cancer cells,

5) The cell's mitochondria (which convert glucose into energy) get

very

little glucose because the microbe has intercepted most of the

glucose,

6) What the cell's mitochondria does get is lots of mycotoxins and

other

harmful garbage, which it cannot convert into energy,

7) The mitochondria's energy level (ATP provides the key energy of a

cell, but ATP gets its energy from the mitochondria) plummets

because it

is living in a sea of filth, meaning the ATP energy drops,

8) Signals are sent to the insulin receptors and glucose receptors

on

the cell membranes to grab more glucose,

9) More glucose enters the cell, but most of the glucose is

intercepted

by the microbe and the mitochondria are bathing in an increasingly

large

sea of mycotoxins, dangerous hormones and possibly slime.

10) Because there is a limit to how high the activity of these two

types

of receptors can become there is no way for the mitochondria (and

thus

the ATP) to get enough glucose and energy,

11) The cell is now officially cancerous because its energy level

drops

(the ATP energy levels can be compared to the steps of a ladder) and

it

is believed to now be anaerobic.

I have ignored the DNA issues and other issues.

I don't know how accurate this description is, but it gives the

reader

some idea of how microbes can cause a cell to become anaerobic. I

think

it is not a matter of fermentation, rather it is a matter of the

mitochondria being starved of glucose and choking in a sea of filth.

But understanding the " microbe theory " of cancer did not fully

explain

why these microbes were able to get into the cells of some people,

but

not others. The evidence is clear that many things can damage the

cell

wall membranes or other parts of the cell wall. For example,

trans-fatty-acids attach to cell walls and block " ports " that allow

glucose to get into the cell, causing type 2 diabetes. But it is

also

possible these fats can cause weaknesses or gaps in the cell walls

allowing microbes to enter.

It turns out that a " carcinogen " is anything that weakens or damages

cell walls, allowing microbes to enter in. There are many, many

things

that can do this, such as:

1) A very acidic diet, which allows the microbes to change forms,

proliferate and become more aggressive,

2) Leaky gut syndrome, which allows unprocessed food to get into the

blood stream,

3) Numerous chemicals and processed substances,

4) A substance that cuts internal tissue, forming a small pool of

blood

in the tissue, which allows the microbes to concentrate and weakens

cell

membranes (over 90% of all cancers start in tissue), etc.

So what " causes cancer, " the many things that damage cell walls and

allow microbes to enter in, or the microbes themselves which cause

the

cells to become anaerobic? The answer, of course, is both.

The bottom line is that in the briefest way of describing things,

cancer

is caused by the following chain reaction:

1) Farming practices (which also indirectly affects both dairy and

meat)

have virtually eliminated trace elements from our diet and have

introduced many very bad things into our bodies. Our food is more

acidic, fungus grows in foods it never used to grow in, etc. The

nutrients in the foods of today are but a shadow of the nutrients in

the

same foods of 60 years ago. My father warned me of this trend over

40

years ago.

2) The way food is processed is an abomination. Numerous substances

are

added to food for appearance or flavor (e.g. trans-fatty acids, food

dyes, etc.); enzymes are killed by cooking; salt is virtually always

added; aspartame is added to drinks to make them sweet; MSG (which

is

hidden in more than 30 different food additives - virtually every

processed food in America has MSG in it but you will never see it on

the

label), and numerous other chemicals, are added for a variety of

reasons, etc., etc.

3) Most people have horrible " Western diets " composed of too much

meat,

too much dairy products, too much salt, too much processed foods,

etc.

etc. Even people who claim to " eat healthy foods " have poor diets,

from

a cancer perspective. For example, peanuts are considered

a " healthy "

food, but peanuts are loaded with fungus. So is tobacco. The

difference

between a " healthy diet " and a " cancer diet " will be made clear in

the

next lesson.

4) The net result of all three of the above items is that our bodies

are

filled with yeast and fungus, which thrive on these kinds of foods.

They

love the acidic nature of the foods we eat. The attempt of our body

to

maintain a constant pH also causes a multitude of health problems.

It

turns out that at least one microbe has several different forms: a

virus, a yeast, a fungus, a mould and a bacteria. This is not to say

that all bacteria are pleomorphic, but at least one of them is and

it is

the one that is most often associated with cancer.

It is these pleomorphic microbes that may explain why so many live

viruses end up in vaccines.

All of this was known about, and published in scientific journals,

in

1950 and before (see the book: Four Women Against Cancer by Alan

Cantwell, M.D., who was himself involved in these discoveries). Even

Royal Rife, in the 1930s, knew of a microbe that was sometimes a

virus

and sometimes a bacteria.

But these discoveries were suppressed and ignored. The reality is

that

the medical profession's version of biology, namely that of Pasteur,

is

totally wrong, and that the theories of the far more talented

Antoine

Bechamp, and those of Claude Bernard, Günther Enderlein, Virginia

Livingston, and others, were right and have been suppressed for

profit

reasons (i.e. in case you have been living in a cave the last 60

years

and haven't noticed - the medical profession is not interested in

what

really causes disease, they are interested in treating the

profitable

symptoms of disease).

5) Now things get tricky. When a carcinogen is introduced into the

body

(and one such carcinogen is caused by leaky gut syndrome), it

changes

the cell membranes or blocks ports in the cell wall. In other words,

individual cells suddently become vulnerable to the entry of the

microbes (e.g. fungus, mould, bacteria, etc.) into normal cells.

6) Once the microbes enter into the normal cells, the cells become

anaerobic. Microbes are sometimes referred to as scavengers, but

regardless of what they normally do, when they get inside a cancer

cell

it causes the cell to become anaerobic.

7) According to the superb book: Cancer - Cause, Cure and Cover-up,

by

Ron Gdanski, another thing happens when these microbes are inside

the

cancer cell. As the cancer cells divide, the cell walls of the new

cells

are hardened by DNA corruption (via the fungal DNA) and this allows

far

less oxygen to get into the cell. This may be one reason why the

presence of the microbe causes the cell to become anaerobic. His

book is

also a superb introduction to why so many cancers form in tissue,

mentioned above.

8) In any case, it is known that when a cell becomes anaerobic (i.e.

glucose fermentation), a dense layer of enzymes coat the outside of

the

cell wall (or the cell wall becomes " thick " ), which would also

inhibit

oxygen from getting into the cell. Over the past several decades,

beginning even before Royal Rife in the 1930s, an absolute consensus

has

developed among the top alternative cancer researchers (most of whom

were M.D.s or PhDs) which makes it perfectly clear that the cancer

microbe is the final cause of cancer.

9) The definition of an anaerobic cell is a " cancerous " cell, hence

the

end result of this chain of events is cancer.

Here is a sampling of some good books on the cancer microbe, for

further

reading:

Four Women Against Cancer, by Alan Cantwell, M.D. (a superb history

of

the discovery of pleomorphic microbes)

Sick and Tired?, by Robert O. Young, PhD (the most advanced of the

books)

The Germ That Causes Cancer, by Doug A. Kaufmann

Cancer Cause, Cure and Cover-up, by Ron Gdanski

How Cancer is Treated

With all of this background, there are two basic ways that cancer is

treated in the world of alternative medicine.

The first way is to kill the cancer cells, either directly or

indirectly

(e.g. indirectly by building the immunity system). Laetrile (i.e.

Vitamin B17), carrot juice with beet juice, the Brandt Grape Cure,

food

grade hydrogen peroxide, ozone therapy, and many, many other

treatments,

appear to work by killing the actual cancer cells and/or by building

the

immunity system.

However, even in treatments that are thought to kill cancer cells,

the

treatment may in fact be killing the microbe inside the cell. When

the

microbe(s) are killed inside a cancer cell, the cell may revert to a

normal cell. Because the vast majority of the research community,

including the researchers of natural products, do not clearly

understand

that there is a microbe inside the cancer cell, they may not know

what

to look for.

The second way is to knowingly target the microbes that are inside

of

the cancer cells. One of the major justifications for believing that

the

microbes are what cause cancer is the fact that when the microbe is

killed, the cancer cell may revert to becoming normal again, meaning

aerobic (oxygen burning).

Those treatments that kill the microbes have a distinct advantage

over

those that kill the cancer cells because there are no dead cancer

cells,

with their toxins, that the body has to process and get rid of.

Treatments that are known to kill the microbes (or revert them to

being

harmless) inside the cancer cells include:

1) MSM and DMSO (I do not discuss this treatment because the FDA has

crushed the use of DMSO and I do not have a treatment plan - also,

DMSO,

although fairly nontoxic, can be dangerous if you don't know how to

handle it correctly),

2) The Royal Rife Machine. The AMA destroyed all of the Rife

Machines

they could find. There are a number of modern versions of the Rife

Machine, but most of them are not as effective as the original. Even

though Rife was interested in killing the microbes inside the cancer

cells, apparently, many of the cancer cells themselves died.

3) The Robert O. Young diet and supplement plan. This plan

essentially

eliminates all yeast/fungus/mould from the body, including those

inside

of the cancer cells. Either the yeast/fungus/mould are killed or

they

revert to a harmless variety.

There are other treatments that have the potential to kill the

microbes

inside of the cancer cells, but I do not have enough evidence to

mention

them as such.

How to Rate Various Alternative Cancer Treatments

Cancers are rated as Stage I, Stage II, Stage III, and Stage IV.

There

are many different ways to define these stages, because there are

many

different kinds of cancer according to orthodox medicine. As you

will

understand in a moment, I like to rate alternative cancer treatments

as

Stage I, Stage II, Stage III, and Stage IV.

We will liken this discussion to a house fire. Suppose your house

catches on fire and you have access to four things to put it out.

First,

you have a squirt gun (a " Stage I " treatment). Second, you have a

fire

extinguisher (a " Stage II " treatment). Third, you have a garden hose

(a

" Stage III " treatment). Fourth, you have a fire station near your

house

and they have fire hoses (a " Stage IV " treatment).

Suppose you leave a lit cigarette on a tablecloth on a small table.

At

this point it is a Stage I fire and your " Stage I " treatment (the

squirt

gun) can easily put it out.

But then suppose you don't realize you left your cigarette on the

table

and the tablecloth and table catch on fire. This is a Stage II fire

and

your Stage I water gun won't put it out, but your fire extinguisher

(Stage II) will. And so on.

Note that if the house has two rooms on fire, and the roof on fire

(Stage IV), several garden hoses (Stage III) will not put the fire

out.

It takes two or more fire hoses to put it out.

In determining the effectiveness of alternative cancer treatments, I

would propose to rate them as a " Stage I " treatment, a " Stage II "

treatment, a " Stage III " treatment, or a " Stage IV " treatment. "

Actually, there are hybrids because some treatments take a certain

amount of time to work, regardless of the cancer stage a patient is

in.

A " Stage II " treatment, by definition, is a treatment that can

significantly contribute, as part of a complete treatment protocol,

to a

cure rate of 80% or above for a " Stage I " or " Stage II " cancer.

Ditto

for the other definitions.

As an example, we know that the Dr. William Donald Kelley metabolic

treatment had a 93% cure rate on patients that had at least 1.5

years to

live. We know this because he treated 33,000 cancer patients and had

a

93% cure rate on those who lived at least 1.5 years. This would

categorize it as approximately a " Stage III " treatment (using an 80%

cure rate as the dividing line).

How does chemotherapy and radiation rate on this scale? Chemotherapy

and

radiation do not rate at all, not even for Stage I. Their combined

cure

rate is 3%, if you cut through all of their statistical tricks (see

my

article " Introduction to Alternative Cancer Treatments " or the video

" Cancer Doesn't Scare Me Anymore " by Dr. Lorraine Day, M.D.)

Using the above example of a squirt gun, fire extinguisher, etc.,

chemotherapy is more like using a sledgehammer to put out the fire.

Radiation is more like using a rifle, while standing outside the

house,

to put out the fire.

I never even mention a " Stage I " alternative cancer treatment. Any

alternative treatment that can cure a Stage I cancer will also cure

a

" Stage II " cancer.

There are at least 150 Stage II alternative cancer treatments that I

know of. There are at least 50 Stage III alternative cancer

treatments

(e.g. Essiac Tea, Kelley Metabolic, carrot and beet juice, etc.).

However, generally several of these will be combined in an actual

treatment.

One of the key breakthroughs in my research was learning that

several

" Stage III " treatments will rarely cure a " Stage IV " cancer!! It is

like

trying to put a " Stage IV " fire out with several garden hoses. It

takes

one or more " Stage IV " cancer treatments (i.e. fire hoses) to deal

with

a " Stage IV " cancer. It is for this reason that I rate alternative

cancer treatments. I have seen too many failed attempts to cure

a " Stage

IV " cancer using several " Stage III " treatments.

What Are The Stage IV Cancer Treatments?

Note: The official list of Stage IV Cancer Treatments can be found

in

the top section of my main web page. Articles on some of these

treatments can be found in the " Step 4 " section of the main web

page.

This section is very general.

On my main web page there is a section of articles which I link to

that

I wrote on individual cancer treatments. These are divided into

three

sections: Stage IV treatments, strong Stage III treatments, and

other

treatments. This section is always the most current section to find

the

" Stage IV " cancer treatments.

My definition of a " Stage IV " cancer is this:

1) The cancer has spread throughout the body, or

2) It is a fast growing cancer or fast growing tumor, or

3) The cancer has a very high fatality rate (e.g. pancreatic

cancer), or

4) A person has been on chemotherapy and radiation and has been sent

home to die. Many of these cancer patients cannot be saved because

one

of their major organs has been killed or a major organ is so damaged

it

cannot be saved. It is common for a person to be sent home to die,

then

start an alternative treatment, feel good, then suddenly die. This

generally means one of their organs died or they got an infection,

such

as sepsis (due to a weakened immunity system), or

5) A person has an estimated one year to live or less, or

6) Orthodox medicine rates them as Stage IV.

The highest true cure rate I have ever seen for people

slashed/burned

and poisoned by orthodox medicine, and sent home to die, is 50%.

This is

because half the people sent home to die have problems, such as a

dead

major organ, that simply cannot be fixed even if you kill all the

cancer

cells in their body!!!

Excluding this group of people, there are only a few Stage IV

alternative cancer treatments (i.e. the fire hoses) that are usable.

These are, in my opinion (my main web page always has the most up to

date list):

1) Cesium chloride and DMSO, plus potassium, with other things. Such

a

treatment is described in detail in an article called: " Cesium

Chloride

Protocol " at:

Cesium Chloride Protocol

I use this Cesium Chloride Protocol at the heart of my " Checklist "

addendum for Stage IV cancer at:

Treatment for Stage IV Cancer Patients.

2) Aloe Immune (product). It has been discovered that there are 8

critical sugars (monosaccharides) that are involved in the immunity

system communications. These 8 sugars are called the glyconutrients.

Two

of these are common to our diets, but the other 6 are not. As part

of

the glyconutrient array there is a key " very long-chain " acemannan

molecule. There are dozens of aloe vera products, but I am only

aware of

one product that has this key " very long-chain " acemannan molecule -

Aloe Immune (Aloe Immune also makes Aloe Vera Acemannan). Aloe

Immune is

the ONLY aloe vera product strong enough for Stage IV cancers,

though

the product " Advanced Ambrotose " is close behind. For information on

how

to obtain this product see my " Treatment for Stage IV Cancer

Patients "

article linked to above.

3) The Johanna Brandt Grape Cure. I have an article and detailed

protocol for this treatment as well. This treatment only allows the

consumption of one food - period - whole purple, red or black

grapes. It

was discovered around 1920. The problem with this treatment is

finding

high quality organic purple (red or black) grapes year around. I

have

had many people tell me they cannot obtain the necessary grapes. So

the

question becomes: can anything be substituted for the grapes and

still

have a Stage IV cancer treatment? It is fairly certain the

combination

of carrot juice and beet juice can be substituted for the grapes, if

nothing is consumed with the juice (note: if other foods are allowed

with the carrot juice and beet juice, it is only a Stage III

treatment).

Also of great interest is the question of whether other super-fruit

drinks can be substituted, such as: Noni Juice, Mangosteen or

Wolfberry

Juice (also called Goji Juice)? This question remains unanswered.

Brandt Grape Cure

4) The Robert O. Young treatment. At the current time you have to

figure

this one out by yourself. You can buy his two relevant books:

a) Sick and Tired? Reclaim Your Inner Terrain

b) The pH Miracle - Balance Your Diet, Reclaim Your Health

Using these two books, to design your diet, coupled with the

InnerLight

supplements, coupled with a few of the " Checklist " article

treatments

which can be used with his diet and supplements, will produce a

superb

cure rate for those who have not already been given a death sentence

by

chemotherapy and radiation. The absolute minimum InnerLight

supplements

that are needed are SuperGreens, Prime pH, MycoDetox l and ll,

Fibrada

and SpectraZyme. I plan on putting such a treatment plan together,

but

given that my " spare time " amounts to only a few hours a week, or

less,

I have no clue when this article will be finished.

5) Oxygen Therapy, especially using ozone. There are dozens of

oxygen

therapies. Most of them are definitely NOT Stage IV cancer

treatments.

However, one and only one of them is a true " Stage IV " treatment.

The

Bible on this subject is the book: Flood Your Body With Oxygen, by

Ed

McCabe. He has several publications that discuss AIDS and cancer. I

now

have an article on the one and only one " Stage IV " ozone therapy:

Stage IV Ozone Treatment

6) Herbs. There are scores of herbal therapies. Rene Caisse created

her

Essiac Tea, which was definitely a Stage IV treatment. However, I

currently classify it as a weak " Stage III " treatment. When Rene was

treating cancer patients her herbs were prepared the same day they

were

used (or no more than a couple of days earlier). Today, even the

best

Essiac Tea is weeks or months old. Furthermore, dehydrating the

herbs

can virtually destroy their bioavailability (i.e. they are useless).

The

only way to get a true " Stage IV " herbal treatment is to grow the

herbs

yourself and make your own herbal tea or go to a practitioner who

knows

what he or she is doing, and who grows their own herbs. I am not

sure

how effective this is, but it is possible that taking an oxygen

supplement, such as Prime pH, or drinking fresh wheatgrass juice, or

perhaps using key essential oils, will significantly help the

bioavailability of dehydrated plants and herbs. In any case, see the

book: Herbal Medicine, Healing & Cancer, by Donald R. Yance or the

book:

School of Natural Healing by John R. Christopher.

Other Comments

There are other Stage IV treatments. Some Stage IV treatments may be

too

dangerous, such as Protocel plus Paw Paw, and I am still gathering

information about their safety. Some Stage IV treatments have been

destroyed or suppressed by the Cancer Merchants (e.g. the Rife

Machine,

the Multi-Wave Oscillator (MWO), and many others). Some Stage IV

treatments need far more research, such as MSM plus DMSO and high

dose

I.V. Vitamin C therapy. Some treatments I know about but simply have

not

had time to research them, such as " cell salts " (see the book: The

Biochemic Handbook) and many others.

For those of you who read my " Introduction to Alternative Cancer

Treatments, " you know there is literally a morbid and sadistic race

to

see whether alternative medicine can derive Stage IV cancer

treatments

faster than the Cancer Merchants (which includes quackwatch, the

FDA,

the AMA, the ACS, etc.) can suppress, destroy or deceive people

about

them!!!

Concerning the Dr. Young treatment, I will enhance how he describes

how

his treatment works:

Suppose you buy a goldfish and an aquarium. Suppose at first the

aquarium water is clean and the goldfish is healthy. Suppose, due to

neglect, the water in the aquarium gets dirty. As a result, the fish

gets sick.

The answer of orthodox medicine to this situation is to give the

goldfish chemotherapy, radiation, a couple of dozen other

prescription

drugs and do a liver transplant. That is how they are trained by the

pharmaceutical industry controlled medical schools.

Dr. Young's solution is to clean the water in the aquarium (i.e.

what he

calls cleaning the " inner terrain " ). By doing this, the body of the

goldfish can heal itself.

Likewise, when our inner terrain is " clean, " fungus and yeast cannot

survive. Even the fungus and mould in the cancer cells cannot

survive.

That is how it treats cancer and a host of other diseases.

The Cancer Diet

The next lesson in this tutorial will talk about the " cancer diet, "

but

for now I just want to mention that the cancer diet is just as

important, if not more so, than the cancer treatment. It is the

cancer

diet that controls most of the " inner terrain " just mentioned.

As I have looked at many alternative cancer treatments that worked,

and

those that didn't, on a case-by-case basis, it seems that even a

small

glitch in the cancer diet (e.g. the person eats meat) can totally

sabotage the effectiveness of the cancer treatment. If cancer cells

are

being fed, they are very resistant to most treatments.

" Buying Time " For the Treatment to Work

Several decades ago two-time Nobel Prize winner Linus Pauling, and

an

associate Dr. Ewan Cameron, did experiments in Scotland that proved

Vitamin C therapy can extend the lives of terminal cancer patients

six-times over orthodox treatments.

The significance of this is that a cancer patient may include in his

or

her treatment items designed specifically to extend life, but not

necessarily designed to cure the cancer. These treatments can

literally

" buy time " for other, more powerful treatments to work.

For weak cancer patients, meaning those will little energy, this

tactic

is very critical. Weak cancer patients have a different " cancer

diet "

than strong cancer patients (see the " cancer diet " article for

details).

Weak cancer patients also need treatments that will " buy time " for

the

more powerful treatments to work.

I talk about examples of treatments that provide a powerful boost of

nutrition or antioxidants that can buy time, but I list of few of

them

here: Vitamin C, Vibe, Juice Plus+, and the super-fruit juices

(Mangosteen, Noni Juice, and Wolfberry Juice). Due to the amount of

glucose in the super-fruit juices they should generally only be used

in

the first month of treatment.

The Importance of Healthy Cells to Treating Cancer

Non-cancerous cells, which I loosely refer to as " healthy cells " or

" normal cells " may be just as important to treating cancer as the

cancerous cells are.

The reason I say this is that many cancer patients (who are not

directly

killed by chemotherapy or radiation), at least 40%, die of

malnutrition.

In other words, their healthy cells are so toxic, starved for

nutrients,

and have a loss of energy, that the patient dies just as if he or

she

had starved to death without cancer (except for the toxicity).

Of course, chemotherapy partly causes this, but even without

chemotherapy cancerous cells steal nutrients from normal cells.

Cancer

cells not only steal nutrients, they also steal glucose and other

sugars

from normal cells.

The reason cancer cells do this is that they use fermentation to

create

energy. Fermentation takes about 15 times more energy than the

oxygen-burning healthy cells.

In addition, there is what is called the " cachexia cycle. " In this

cycle, the cancer cells burn glucose and produce a waste product

called

lactic acid or lactate. This lactic acid is expelled by the cancer

cell

and it goes to the liver. The liver then converts the lactic acid

back

into glucose. The glucose goes back to the cancer cell and the cycle

starts again (i.e. the lactic acid is formed from the glucose).

The problem is that the conversion of glucose to lactic acid (in the

cancer cell) and the conversion of lactic acid to glucose (in the

liver)

both consume enormous amounts of energy, which is effectively stolen

from healthy cells.

Those cancer patients who have the " cachexia cycle " or " lactic acid

cycle " are, by definition, Stage IV cancer patients. These patients

need

cesium chloride to stop the cycle in the cancer cells and they need

hydrazine sulphate to stop the cycle in the liver. All of this is

explained in the " Checklist " article for Stage IV cancer patients.

Thus, healthy cells have both a problem with energy and a problem

with

nutrients (and possibly with toxins). It is the damage done to these

healthy cells that leads to at least 40% of all cancer deaths (i.e.

the

patient dies before their cancer kills them).

This is interesting because chemotherapy and radiation kill far more

healthy cells than cancer cells. But it may be the toxic damage done

to

normal cells (that survive the treatment) that eventually causes

many

cancer patients to die.

There is no doubt that the health and energy of the normal cells in

key

organs, such as the liver, is especially important in treating

cancer.

Because of these things, an alternative cancer treatment, especially

for

Stage IV cancers, should flood the body with high-density nutrients,

both in supplement and food form. This can make the patient feel

good

immediately, but its main purpose is to treat the healthy cells with

much-needed energy and nutrients.

The products which provide these nutrients, and antioxidant power,

are

the same ones that " buy time " for the cancer patient: Vitamin C,

Vibe,

Juice Plus+, Noni Juice, Mangosteen, and Wolfberry Juice, and

others.

This should not come as a surprise because " buying time " frequently

amounts to protecting the normal cells from killing the patient via

malnutrition. However, the key organs are also critical to

both " buying

time " and a powerful up-front nutrition burst.

Sometimes this burst of energy and feeling good is confused with

curing

the cancer. These products do not kill cancer cells as quickly as

they

make the patient feel good.

Juice Fasts

Very few of the alternative cancer treatments use a " juice fast, "

but

instead they use a " cancer diet. " However, I want to discuss juice

fasts

for reasons I will mention in a moment.

Juice fasts have been around for several decades. I have already

mentioned the Brandt Grape Cure, which is a juice fast and I have

mentioned the possibility of substituting carrot juice and beet

juice

for the grapes. The Breuss cancer treatment is also a " juice fast. "

The theory of a juice fast is that the body (i.e. the cancer cells)

has

NOTHING to eat or drink except what you put into it (i.e. what you

eat

or drink). If you drink milk shakes and eat chocolate pie for your

diet,

your cancer cells will have a feast (more than you did).

But what if a person EATS NOTHING and drinks only the juice from one

or

two natural vegetables, fruits, herbs and/or other plants? In this

case,

as above, the body has nothing to eat or drink except what you put

into

it.

In the case of the Brandt Grape Cure, the body only has access to

the

juice from whole purple, red or black grapes. These grapes are known

to

have more than a dozen cancer-killing nutrients. Thus, during the

Brandt

Grape Cure the cancer cells only have access to eating cancer-

killing

nutrients!! Furthermore, the glucose in the grapes helps " carry " the

cancer-killing nutrients into the cancer cells.

People sometimes wonder how drinking grape juice can cure cancer. If

the

grape juice is used in a " juice fast " it can cure cancer.

A juice fast can last anywhere from 14 to 42 days, but should never

exceed 42 days without a break. During a juice fast it is generally

wise

to have the blood checked for key minerals and other nutrients every

couple of weeks. After the fast, a good cancer diet menu can be used

for

a week or two, then, in some cases, the juice fast can be safely

repeated, if necessary.

The importance of " juice fasts " is made even more important knowing

that

the FDA, FTC, Codex (the U.N. equivalent to the FDA) are trying to

destroy the AVAILABILITY of the natural substances used in

alternative

treatments. For example, 7 people have been arrested, spent time in

jail

or have been harassed by the feds in an attempt to keep the long-

chain

acemannan molecule off the market.

Cause Versus Symptoms

Everyone knows that orthodox medicine treats symptoms, not causes.

In

fact, the Cancer Merchants have no interest in knowing what really

causes cancer, because that information could lead to a simple,

natural

cure (and already has many times). In fact, as mentioned above,

farming,

food processing, diet, the inner terrain, the immunity system, and a

carcinogen are the root cause of cancer.

However, in some cases it is necessary to treat the symptoms of

cancer,

until a person has time to treat the cause.

For example, most alternative cancer treatments work by killing

cancer

cells, directly or indirectly. After the above discussion of the

Robert

O. Young diet, it is clear that these treatments are only dealing

with

the symptoms of cancer. The real cause of cancer is the corrupted

inner

terrain and a very weakened immunity system.

Nevertheless, to save the patient's life, it is necessary to treat

the

symptoms before treating the cause, unless of course, you are on the

Robert O. Young treatment, which treats cancer by cleaning the inner

terrain.

In many cases I have seen, after an alternative cancer treatment is

done, the cause of the cancer, a poor inner terrain, is still firmly

in

place. While everyone knows this with regard to orthodox treatments,

few

think of this with regards to alternative medicine.

Thus, if a person just " pops pills " to cure their cancer, when the

cancer is cured the patient still needs to deal with their inner

terrain

and immunity system.

This is another reason I am fanatical about the " cancer diet. " The

" cancer diet " on my web site meets the criteria of the Robert O.

Young

books (with exceptions that are explained). Thus, while the

treatment is

treating the symptoms of cancer (i.e. the cancer cells), the diet is

treating the cause of the cancer AND not interfering with the

treatment!!

I have seen too many cases where a person is cured of cancer with

alternative medicine, only to have the cancer return in a few

months. It

is important for a cancer patient not to return to their former way

of

life the minute they think they are cured.

I will give you another example, the Lorraine Day diet/treatment.

Her

diet consists of a very specific diet of mostly whole, raw foods.

The

diet is what actually " cures " the cancer because it builds the

immunity

system. You cannot " cure " cancer without building the inner terrain

and

immunity system!!! However, she also has a couple of items that

treat

the " symptoms " of cancer (i.e. the cancer cells), namely carrot

juice

and barleygreen powder.

No matter what treatment you use to kill the cancer cells, or revert

them back to being normal cells, you must also do things to " cure "

your

cancer for the long term by using a special diet. Perhaps it would

be

best to think of a " short term " cure (i.e. treating the symptoms of

cancer) and a " long term " cure (i.e. treating the inner terrain and

immunity system.

It is very important to separate in your mind those things that

treat

the " symptoms " of cancer (i.e. the cancer cells) and those things

that

" cure " cancer (the build the inner terrain and immunity system). Too

often people think their cancer is cured when the cancer cells are

dead

and then they go back to their old way of life.

The third lesson in this tutorial is about what to do after you are

in

remission. The point to remember is that a good rule of thumb is to

have

80% of your diet, after treatment, be in harmony with the " cancer

diet "

that helped cure you. The other 20% should not be French fries and

milk

shakes, but reasonable foods.

How to Use Testimonials

Unfortunately, many people have made mistakes putting their

treatment

together because they did not know how to interpret accurate,

truthful

and well-meaning testimonials. I will talk about two major problems

with

interpreting testimonials.

First, suppose a person goes on the " Raw Food " cancer diet (e.g.

carrot

juice, beet juice, etc.), along with a number of other things, and

cures

their cancer. Then they put a testimonial on the Internet. Suppose

further that they had a Stage III cancer and had never had orthodox

treatments.

Now suppose another person is looking at the Internet. Suppose they

have

Stage IV cancer by virtue of their having had orthodox treatments

and

were sent home to die.

They may look at this testimonial and say to themselves: " Wow, that

treatment cures cancer, I am going to use it. " Unfortunately, the

Raw

Food cancer diet, coupled with a long list of other Stage III

treatments, will probably not cure a Stage IV cancer patient.

Thus, you must make sure that you are using testimonials that are

equivalent in intensity to what your cancer is.

However, even doing this presents a potential problem. The problem

is

that this same treatment might be able to cure a Stage IV cancer,

but

overall has a very low cure rate for Stage IV cancers. Let me

explain.

Suppose the hypothetical cancer patient who was cured above was a

Stage

IV cancer patient. Virtually every Stage III cancer treatment will

cure

a small percentage of Stage IV cancer patients. Thus, suppose the

cure

rate for the Raw Food diet on Stage IV cancer patients is 15% (I

don't

know what it is, but this seems reasonable unless a special

vegetable

juice is substituted for the grapes in the Brandt Grape Cure). Now

suppose that one of these 15% patients puts a testimonial on the

Internet.

Now on the Internet there is a valid testimonial from a Stage IV

cancer

patient. This testimonial is read by another Stage IV cancer

patient. If

the second cancer patient uses this treatment they have a 15% chance

of

being cured. This may sound good, but in reality there are Stage IV

cancer treatments that have much, much higher cure rates than 15%.

Testimonials are marvelous things, and I wish there were tens of

thousands more of them on the Internet, but the reader must

understand

how to interpret these testimonials.

Cure Rates

Having said that the cure rate for some Stage IV treatments is much,

much higher than 15%, a person might wonder what the real cure rate

is

for orthodox medicine.

When a person thinks of " curing " cancer they naturally think that

the

person who is " cured " of cancer will die of old age, but not from

cancer. This is logical. A person is " cured " of cancer if they are

not

going to die of cancer or the cancer treatment - EVER.

So using this definition, what is the " cure rate " for orthodox

medicine?

Less than 3%. Yet, when you go to the American Cancer Society web

site

you see cure rates of 45% or 55% or whatever. What is going on?

What is going on is that you are seeing the tip of the iceberg of

the

deception of orthodox medicine. They use a useless " 5-year cure

rate. "

Many cancers are slow growing, thus they have a very high " 5-year

cure

rate. " But orthodox medicine has not cured them, and probably has

not

even extended their life. They have simply used deceptive

statistical

tricks.

My article " Introduction to Alternative Cancer Treatments " and my

free,

online eBook " The War Between Orthodox Medicine and Alternative

Medicine " go into excruciating detail on many of the deceptive

tactics

of orthodox medicine. To do such a similar analysis of the

intentional

and well thought-out deceptions on the quackwatch website would

require

a very large book.

Killing Cancer Cells in Test Tubes (In Vitro)

Many times people get excited about substances killing cancer cells

in

test tubes, normally called: in vitro (literally: in glass). While

this

is an exciting discovery, it may not be as important as it seems.

The first question that must be asked is this: " Does the substance,

if

taken orally, get past the digestive tract? " The digestive tract is

capable of neutralizing many, many substances. For example, only 5%

of

EDTA molecules (EDTA is used for chelation of heavy metals), if

taken

orally, get past the digestive tract. That is why most EDTA is given

in

an I.V. Laetrile is another substance that is far more effective if

taken in an I.V.

Now let us look at molecules that do get past the digestive tract.

What

if one of these molecules " hits " (i.e. comes into contact with) a

healthy cell before it " hits " a cancerous cell. One of four things

can

happen, and three of them are bad for cancer patients.

First, the healthy cell can absorb the nutrient. This means the

nutrient

is not available to kill cancer cells. The good news is that cancer

cells steal a lot of nutrients from healthy cells so they get more

than

their share of these nutrients.

Second, the healthy cell can break apart the molecule and make it

ineffective to killing cancer cells. This is exactly what happens if

a

laetrile molecule " hits " a healthy cell before it " hits " a cancer

cell.

Third, suppose the molecule does get to a cancer cell. The cancer

cell

can prevent the molecule from entering. There are many reasons for

this.

Cancer cells are coated with a layer of enzymes that prevent many

things

from entering the cancer cell. Cancer cell walls may be more rigid

than

normal cells, not allowing certain molecules to enter. And so on.

Fourth, the healthy cells can ignore the molecule and the cancer

cells

consume it. This is the ideal and amounts to the

molecule " targeting "

the cancer cell, assuming the cancer cell absorbs it.

In conjunction with these items, there is a fifth option. This

molecule

can " bind " or " combine " with another type of molecule, a " carrier

molecule, " thus going wherever the carrier molecule goes. This is

another method of targeting cancer cells if the carrier molecule

targets

the cancer cells.

Cancer cells have various " receptors " that grab certain types of

molecules. Two of these are insulin receptors and folic acid

receptors.

In addition, some receptors are overexpressed, meaning they are more

likely to steal these nutrients from normal cells. For example, at

least

two universities are trying to use the folic acid receptors of

cancer

cells to target cancer-killing chemotherapy agents. Such receptors

may

also be useful for alternative medicine.

There are other problems the cancer cell-killing molecule has in

doing

its job. There may be supplements or foods or chemicals that can

break

apart the molecule, or in other ways render it harmless to cancer

cells.

For example, Vitamin C supplements can render Protocel useless.

Chlorine

breaks apart many cancer cell-killing molecules and in some cases

can

convert them into cancer-causing molecules!

On the other side of the ledger, there are some molecules that will

enhance the effectiveness of other molecules. Paw Paw will enhance

the

effectiveness of Protocel. This, however, is not necessarily a good

thing. It can cause cancer cells to be broken apart too fast for the

body to process the waste (called " lysing " ).

The bottom line to all of this are the answers to these two

questions.

First, " How many molecules of this substance are needed to kill a

cancer

cell? " And second, " How can we figure out how to get enough

molecules of

this substance into the cancer cells without damaging normal cells? "

In short, inside the human body is a vastly different environment

than

inside a glass test tube. Killing cancer cells in a test tube is

just

the beginning of a long voyage of research.

A Paradox

While reading the prior section you may have noticed a paradox. Many

of

the super-fruits, such as Tahitian Noni Juice, Xango Mangosteen and

Berry Young Juice (i.e. wolfberry juice) have super high antioxidant

ratings and a mass of critical nutrients.

Your first instinct will be to use these juices (and other items) to

quickly build the nutrient level of the healthy cells. But wait a

minute.

If you are on the Robert O. Young diet, these fruit juices are

forbidden

because they contain too much glucose (i.e. they directly and

indirectly

feed the fungus in your body).

So what do you do?

You have two choices. You can take these drinks (or other products

such

as Vibe or Juice Plus+) for two, three or even four weeks, to build

up

the nutrition level in your body, then stop taking them and start

the

Robert O. Young diet. Or you can skip them altogether.

Don't get me wrong, the Robert O. Young diet contains plenty of

nutrients, some of which are dense, but the quickest way to get

these

nutrients to the normal cells is the above products.

Which you should do really depends on how long you have to live and

what

plan you want to be on.

This is just one example of a situation where a specific diet or

product

cannot be used with other products or treatments. For example, there

is

a long list of things that absolutely cannot be taken with hydrazine

sulphate, Protocel, the Robert O. Young diet (or any other " cancer

diet "

for that matter), and so on. Nothing can be taken with the Breuss

treatment or Brandt Grape Cure.

The lesson to learn is this: When you are on a treatment that has

restrictions, AFTER you have put your plan together, go back and

check

to see if you have a conflict.

How Many Cancer Cells Are There In The Body

Another key consideration in dealing with cancer is knowing how many

cancer cells there are in the body. This is not so much a numerical

determination as it is a determination of how far the cancer has

spread

throughout the body.

If cancer is contained to a small area of the body, such as the

prostate

gland or a medium size tumor, the cancer is not going to kill the

patient (note: this is a general comment, with brain cancer, and

other

rare situations, a small tumor can kill a person, but not because of

the

volume of cancer cells, but rather by causing swelling or blockage).

If we think about how cancer kills people, we can understand why

this is

true. Cancer kills people (and I am ignoring chemotherapy and

radiation

caused deaths) for two main reasons:

1) The nutrients and energy stolen from healthy cells by cancerous

cells, and

2) The toxins released by cancer cells (e.g. lactic acid, mycotoxins

released by the microbes inside and outside of the cancer cells,

etc.).

These toxins may overwhelm the body or kill or damage a vital organ.

Note that if there is a small area of the body with cancer cells, as

mentioned above, there will not be very much nutrients or energy

stolen

by the cancer cells, or enough toxins released by the cancer cells,

to

kill the patient. It is the spreading of cancer that provides enough

damage to kill the patient.

I quote from Dr. Philip Binzel, M.D.:

" We are treating the symptom [of cancer] - the tumor, and we are

doing

absolutely nothing to prevent the spread of the disease. The only

thing

known to mankind today that will prevent the spread of cancer within

the

body is for that body's own defense mechanisms to once again

function

normally. That's what nutritional therapy does. It treats the

defense

mechanism, not the tumor.

The woman with a lump in her breast is not going to die from that

lump.

The man with a nodule in his prostate gland is not going to die from

that nodule. What may kill both of those people is the spread of

that

disease through the rest of their bodies. "

Philip Binzel, M.D. - Alive and Well

While a person with a small amount of cancer, contained within a

single

area, might be tempted to use a Stage IV alternative cancer

treatment,

be aware that some Stage IV alternative cancer treatments contain

items

that can be dangerous (e.g. cesium chloride or DMSO). Thus, it is

best

to not overkill a simple cancer.

The " Checklist " article on this web site is designed to treat up to

and

including Stage III cancer (assuming the person meets the " cancer

diet "

requirements). Even meeting half of the " Checklist " article minimum

requirements (e.g. by meeting all of the requirements in checklist

#1,

but with only taking one item from each of the other checklists)

should

be sufficient to treat Stage I or Stage II cancers.

On the other hand, there is ZERO TOLERANCE as far as the " cancer

diet "

is concerned, even for very small cancers!!

Treatment Plan Options

When a person has cancer, they have far more options for the

treatment

of their cancer than they probably realize. There are more than 250

alternative treatments for cancer. Over 200 of them are listed on

another web page on this site.

Some of the alternative treatments are based on key enzymes, others

on

key phytonutrients (e.g. nutrients in plants not otherwise

classified as

vitamins, minerals, etc.); others are based on getting oxygen atoms

to

the cancer cells, and so on. There are a large variety of different

treatment plans.

Most of these work in a self-defeating way. For example, mangosteen

contains phytonutrients that kill the cancer cells, but the glucose

and

other sugars in mangosteen simultaneously feed the fungus and cancer

cells in the body. It is like two different football teams, which

will

win? It is frequently hard to tell.

But there is one food for which it is known which team will win. The

Brandt Grape Cure, mentioned above. In her treatment, when a cancer

patient gets nothing but grapes, it will cure a high percentage of

cancer patients. The Brandt Grape Cure, taken from her book, is

a " Stage

IV " treatment.

The interesting thing is that when grapes and grape juice are mixed

with

other cancer treatments, the effectiveness of the grapes and grape

juice

drops dramatically. This is because the cancer cells are being fed

by

other treatments.

For example, when the grapes are combined with other substances,

such as

apple juice, the cancer cells are getting the glucose from two

sources,

grape juice and apple juice. This is PROBABLY NOT a " Stage IV "

treatment

(even though apples do contain some cancer-killing nutrients)! It is

an

issue of density. The density of cancer cell-killing nutrients in

grapes

(with their skins and seeds) is very high. Combining this food with

foods which have less dense cancer killing nutrients, leads to a

diluted

treatment that does a better job at feeding the cancer cells than

killing them.

Carrot juice with beet juice, Mangosteen, Noni Juice, and/or

wolfberry

juice may also be a " Stage IV " treatment if that is the ONLY thing

the

cancer patient consumes. I just don't know at this point what their

cancer cell-killing density is. If there were two such foods

(hypothetically, say purple grapes and Xango Mangosteen), then they

could be combined in a treatment.

It is necessary to calculate how much of what you are eating and

drinking are feeding the cancer cells versus how much is killing

cancer

cells. Of course, it is far more complex that than. The Robert O.

Young

diet solves this problem by forbidding all foods that feed the

microbes

that are inside the cancer cells.

In fact, there are so many options that it gets very, very confusing

to

the cancer patient. That is why there is a " Checklist " article. In

fact,

it is confusing to everyone who does this type of research. That is

why

if a person is on a treatment they should check back, at least

monthly,

to the " Checklist " article to see what new features are there.

No matter what treatment plan or plans you choose to go on, there is

a

good chance one or more plans can be significantly enhanced by

incorporating recent discoveries. For example, it has only recently

been

discovered that anyone on the Brandt Grape Cure diet should

exclusively

use purple concord grapes (red and black grapes are acceptable only

when

purple grapes are not available), with both their skin and their

seeds.

This was not known in the days of Johanna Brandt.

Furthermore, grape seed extract, grape skin extract and quercetin

supplements were not available in the 1920s. They are available now.

Also, it was not known when Johanna Brandt wrote her book that

chlorine

would turn certain cancer-killing nutrients in grape juice into

cancer-causing agents. The soil today is different than the soil of

the

1920s. And so on.

My point is that it would be a mistake to blindly follow her

original

diet and ignore discoveries made since the 1920s, and to ignore

problems

that have arisen since the 1920s, although if people only followed

her

advice, they would far outlive those who rely on chemotherapy and

radiation.

Also, different treatment plans usually can be combined together.

For

example, the Raw Food diet (e.g. carrot and beet juice, etc.), which

primarily kills cancer cells, can be combined with the Rath Cellular

Solution, which stops the spreading or metastasis of tissue cancers.

You, the patient, not only have the option of using a well-proven

method

of treating cancer, but you have the additional option of combining

most

treatment plans together (note: some treatment plans cannot be

combined).

All of this is part of the " supercharging " of alternative cancer

treatments. Virtually all of the best treatment plans can be

supercharged with new discoveries and other treatments. Showing how

to

supercharge alternative treatment plans is a major purpose of this

web

site.

Why You Need To Know How Treatment Plans Work

The first thing to consider is how various treatment plans work. It

is

critical to know exactly how various treatment plans work in order

to

pick the right treatment plan for a given situation. The first thing

necessary to discuss is that most, but not all, alternative

treatment

plans fall into several main categories (these items kill cancer

cells):

1) The first category is to get more oxygen to the cancer cells. If

cancer cells are deprived of oxygen they thrive. Without oxygen,

your

cancer will spread like a fire. As the cancer cells get more and

more

oxygen the cancer will spread slower and slower. When they get

enough

oxygen, they will die. Several of the better treatment plans are

designed to get oxygen to the cancer cells! There are some creative

ways

of doing this. For example, antioxidants generally fall into this

category because they free up oxygen molecules already in the body.

Hydrogen peroxide, on the other hand, brings new oxygen molecules

into

the body.

2) A second general category is alkalinity. Cancer cells are very

acidic

and if their alkaline level gets too high (8.0 or above) they will

die

(note that it is the CANCER CELLS, NOT THE BODY, that can achieve a

pH

of 8.0). There are several ways to get the cancer cells to that

alkaline

level, but using cesium chloride is by far the most proven way of

doing

this. Cesium chloride not only kills cancer cells, it also stops the

spread of cancer immediately and stops the pain of cancer within one

or

two days in many cases.

3) The third way is to kill the cancer cells directly through

nutrition

(instead of oxygen). There are many, many nutrients that kill cancer

cells. Purple grapes, with their seeds, have over a dozen cancer-

killing

nutrients. The problem is getting enough of these nutrients to the

cancer cells. One of the problems is getting the nutrients past the

digestive system. This is where colon cleanses and avoiding chlorine

become particularly important. There are also ways to trick the

cancer

cells into ingesting cancer-killing nutrients. Short fasts (12 to 24

hours) are the best way of doing this. There are also ways to " bind "

molecules together, where one molecule easily gets into the cancer

cell

carrying the other molecule with it, and the second molecule kills

the

cancer cell.

4) A fourth general category is to stop the spread of cancer. I just

mentioned that oxygen does that, but there are other ways as well

that

deal with the collagen that is between the cancer cells or in

inhibiting

glucose from getting to the cancer cells. The theory is that if the

cancer cannot spread, then when the existing cancer cells die - so

will

the cancer. So far, the cure rates for the methods that use these

approaches have not been proven to be as high as the cure rates for

some

of the other methods of attack. These methods should be supplemented

with methods that directly kill the cancer cells.

5) The fifth way is to build the immunity system. These techniques,

usually special diets and supplements, essentially build the correct

pieces of the immunity system that deal with cancer (most of the

parts

of the immunity system do not deal with cancer cells). Then the

immunity

system takes care of the cancer. With special diets, what you don't

eat

is just as important as what you do eat. These treatment plans (e.g.

macrobiotic, raw food, Jon Barron, etc.) do not work as fast as

other

treatment plans, and should be strongly supplemented for people with

less than a year to live (this is only a rule of thumb). Raw foods

have

far more critical enzymes than cooked foods (cooking kills the

enzymes),

and the trend in alternative cancer treatments is clearly towards

raw,

organic food diets that totally exclude dairy products, meat, etc.

For

those who have been sent home to die by orthodox medicine this item

is

far less important. This is because their immunity system is so

destroyed by orthodox medicine that even tripling their immunity

system

elements will still not have an immediate effect. Nevertheless, it

can

have a long term effect.

6) A sixth way of killing cancer cells is to starve them to death.

Cancer cells require massive amounts of glucose and other sugars to

survive. Normal cells require far less glucose and other sugars. The

Breuss diet is a 42-day " fast, " where the only foods that are

allowed

contain very low levels of glucose and other sugars (actually it is

a

little more complicated than that). The cancer cells literally

starve to

death, but normal cells can survive the " fast. " (Note: normally when

alternative health people talk about a " fast, " any long term " fast "

includes food, but the types of food allowed are very restricted.

Also

on " fasts " unlimited amounts of natural water or distilled water

[for

detox reasons] are generally allowed.)

These are not the only ways alternative treatments deal with cancer,

but

most of the more proven treatment plans fall into these categories.

It

turns out that cancer cells are not only very different than healthy

cells, they are very fragile and easy to safely kill.

Also, I should mention that virtually all types of cancer can be

treated

identically. Exceptions are brain cancer, because of the " blood

brain

barrier, " bone and bone marrow cancer, because there are no blood

vessels that directly get to the cancer cells, and leukemia, which

originates in the bone marrow. These, and perhaps some rare types of

cancer, require special consideration.

[Note: I have articles on several specific kinds of cancer (e.g.

brain

cancer, leukemia, etc.). Links to these articles can be found in

Step 5

of my main web page.]

What you really need to know is how fast these treatments work. For

example, a person with less than 4 months to live should not use

laetrile or metabolic therapy (actually they should use a Stage IV

treatment) because these treatments do not work fast enough. They

are

strong enough to be Stage IV treatments, but they do not work fast

enough to be an effective Stage IV treatment.

Likewise, in this situation it is too late to depend on the immunity

system being built up fast enough to help. There is nothing wrong

with

building the immunity (for later use), but it won't be built up fast

enough to help within 4 months.

Extending the Life of the Patient

It has been shown that the use of large doses of vitamin C (e.g. 10

grams of high quality vitamin C a day by I.V.) can extend the life

of a

cancer patient significantly. However, by itself, vitamin C cannot

cure

cancer in most cases. But if a treatment plan such as Vitamin C can

extend life by several months or several years, it gives the patient

additional time to find treatments that cure the disease!!

In other words, suppose a terminal cancer patient is given 4 months

to

live. There are certain alternative cancer treatments, which by

themselves are not very powerful, but which can significantly extend

the

life of the patient to allow more time to cure the cancer!!

What A Realistic Cancer Protocol for Stage III Must Accomplish

A real treatment plan generally contains a dozen or more treatments

at

the same time. Here is an example why so many treatments are needed.

A

realistic cancer protocel must accomplish the following things:

1) Super nutrient supplements and foods provide a quick and massive

burst of nutrients and energy very quickly. This will, as a minimum,

buy

time by providing the healthy cells the nutrients they are starving

for.

Examples: Vibe, Juice Plus+, Tahitian Noni Juice, etc.

2) Antioxidants also buy time in ways that are not fully understood

(e.g. vitamin C), although it is known they get more oxygen into the

blood. Examples: Supercritical Antioxidants by New Chapter, Berry

Young

Juice (wolfberry), etc.

3) Build the immunity system, which will in turn benefit the patient

and

kill cancer cells indirectly. Examples: MGN3 (or BioBran), Beta

Glucan,

Aloe Vera, etc.

4) Kill cancer cells directly (actually these treatments can

sometimes

be combined with a plan designed to revert cancer cells to normal

cells). Generally, several treatments will be combined to accomplish

this critical task. Examples: Carrot juice with beet juice, Essaic

Tea,

etc.

5) Kill the yeast, fungus and mould in the cancer patient's body

(this

is just as important for cancer patients who are on a plan designed

to

kill cancer cells!!). Examples: Olive Leaf Extract, Oil of Oregano,

etc.

6) Protect the liver, kidney and other vital organs. This requires a

colon cleanse so the liver has a place to put the toxins it has

processed. Examples: Milk Thistle Extract, Olive Oil, etc.

7) Break apart the enzymes that surround the cancer cells so more of

the

cancer-killing nutrients can get inside the cancer cell.

Surprisingly

enough, it is other enzymes that accomplish this task. Examples:

Vitälzym, Wobenzyme N (both of which contain several such enzymes),

etc.

8) Get oxygen into the body. Examples: chlorophyll (i.e. " greens, "

such

as barleygreen), hydrogen peroxide I.V., etc.

9) Stop the spread of the cancer. Example: The Rath Cellular

Solution,

which also protects the body against heart disease, is simple,

inexpensive and is specifically designed to do this. Oxygen

therapies

also do this to some degree.

10) Another possible major cause of death in cancer patients,

especially

those who have been on chemotherapy and radiation, is infections.

Many

cancer patients die of sepsis, pneumonia, and other types of

infections.

I have no supplements for this item.

Other things that might need to be addressed are: shrinking tumors

that

pose an obstruction; removing heavy metals (which interfere with the

immunity system); dealing with leaky gut syndrome (which may be a

major

factor in the sequence of events that causes cancer); and dealing

with

immunity system communications (e.g. Ambrotose and the long-chain

acemannans, etc.).

Note that some supplements and foods will accomplish more than one

of

the above tasks!!

The " Checklist " article (Stage III) goes into more detail on these

issues.

Remember above that several garden hoses will not treat a Stage IV

cancer. Stage IV treatments are in a class all of their own and need

an

emphasis on different issues than a Stage III cancer.

More Details

You should also understand that some supplements take time for the

body

to get used to. For example, if you were to take Vitamin C for the

first

time, and you took 5 grams of Vitamin C, very little of it would be

absorbed by the body.

The establishment likes to use this fact to " prove " mega supplements

are

useless. But in fact, over a several week period, the body adjusts

to

the Vitamin C and it absorbs more and more of it, especially if you

have

done a colon cleanse (see the second link: Jon Barron to learn how).

It

is best if you take small doses several times a day. The same is

true

for most other vitamins and supplements that are taken in larger

than

normal doses (i.e. in mega doses), such as Niacin (Vitamin B-3).

A word of warning, if you are going to take mega doses of Vitamin C,

or

any other supplement, it is important to build up to the desired

dosage

over several days or a couple of weeks. For example, with Vitamin C

you

should only start at 3 grams a day (one gram with each meal), and

take

at least a week, preferably two, to build up to 15 grams (3 grams,

five

times a day). Since liquid Vitamin C is not easy to find (do NOT mix

Vitamin C with water prior to use), it is generally best to take it

in

crystal form. This build-up is not only designed to prevent

diarrhea,

but also for safety reasons.

Because so many treatment plans allow mega doses of Vitamin C, if

you

are contemplating using alternative treatment plans for cancer you

should immediately start taking 3 grams of vitamin C a day (1 gram

after

every meal) to start building up your tolerance. Few treatment plans

would prohibit this (e.g. Protocel would forbid this, as would the

Breuss treatment).

Need I even say that you should purchase " natural " vitamins,

preferably

from a health food store, although most pharmacies now sell natural

vitamins. Be very careful with the brand name. Some vitamin products

have a brand name that implies they are natural, but they are not.

For

example, if buy vitamin E, you need to make sure it says: d-alpha

tocopherols, not dl-alpha tocopherols. Read the Jon Barron book for

more

information on buying supplements.

A Warning To Those Going From Remission to Regression

Another thing to understand about alternative cancer treatments is

that

apparently some treatment plans become less effective the longer you

stay on them or the cancer patient is put into remission and then

comes

out of remission into regression.

This may be because some cancer cells survive the treatment plan a

person is on, and these cancer cells continue to multiply. After

these

cancer cells multiply it is far more difficult to cure the cancer

because such a high percentage of the person's cancer cells are

resistant to the treatment.

The situation may be similar to viruses, where some viruses are

accidentally resistant to, or mutate to adjust to, a virus killing

substance, and it is these viruses that multiply. This may be

exactly

what is going on, but in a cancer environment.

In fact, there is a clear correlation between these scenarios and

what

frequently happens in an orthodox setting.

It is known that about 2% of the cancer cells of people who are on

chemotherapy become resistant to all forms of orthodox drugs. These

cells are called " Multiple Drug-Resistant " (MDR) cells. Nothing in

orthodox medicine can kill them.

What frequently happens in orthodox medicine is that a person on

chemotherapy develops these MDR cells, but the treatment is able to

kill

most of the non-MDR cancer cells. When this happens, because there

were

only a small percentage of these MDR cells (a large number, but a

small

percentage), the patient is put into " remission. "

Remission simply means the obvious symptoms of cancer are gone, it

does

NOT mean that all of the cancer cells have been killed. In fact,

when a

cancer patient is put into remission it is highly likely that there

are

a large number of MDR cells that are still alive and are doing quite

well.

During the time a cancer patient is in remission it is these MDR

cells

that are dividing!! Thus, when a person comes out of remission, into

regression, a large percentage of their cancer cells may now be MDR

cells!!

Now, orthodox medicine is helpless because a huge number of MDR

cells,

and now a high percentage of all of the cancer cells, are now in the

person's body and there is nothing orthodox medicine has that can

kill

them.

This is why there is such a very high death rate for patients who

come

out of remission and are in regression. These MDR cells, which now

may

be in the majority, cannot be killed by orthodox medicine!! To

compound

the problem, the cancer patient's immunity system was largely

destroyed

before the patient went into remission. Thus, the patient faces two

huge

obstacles to survival. And that is why so many people in regression

die.

These two reasons are why orthodox medicine has such a very poor

REAL

cure rate of 3% or less (peeking through their maze of deceptive

statistics - see my " Introduction to Alternative Cancer Treatments "

article for more information).

When these patients are sent home to die, they turn to alternative

cancer treatments. It is not known how many natural cancer

treatments

actually kill MDR cells. The only treatment that has been clinically

proven to kill these cells is Paw Paw, a cousin of graviola.

http://www.annieappleseedproject.org/pawpawfruita.html

A person in regression should absolutely take Paw Paw. However, Paw

Paw

must be taken at exact times during the day. See my article on

graviola

and Paw Paw for more information (this page will allow you to link

to my

Protocel article, which has even more information):

Paw Paw Information

It is not known whether any alternative cancer treatment other than

Paw

Paw kill these MDR cells. However, when the treatment you are on is

not

working, or becomes less effective over time, you should get the

hint to

switch to something a lot more powerful.

It may be you need to switch to a Stage IV treatment AND you need to

insure there is something in the treatment that can kill the MDR

cells,

which right now, is Paw Paw.

MDR cells do not form from alternative cancer treatments. However,

let

us consider the following scenario.

Suppose a person has been on chemotherapy and thus has MDR cells.

Suppose the person then turns to alternative medicine and the

alternative treatment kills all of the cancer cells except the MDR

cells. The patient is then put into remission by alternative

medicine.

But now suppose the MDR cells multiply and the cancer patient is in

regression. As with orthodox medicine, it may be that the majority

of

the cancer cells are MDR cells. This makes the treatment even more

difficult for alternative medicine, especially if the person uses

the

same treatment that did not kill the MDR cells the first time.

The bottom line is that anyone who has had chemotherapy should use a

treatment that kills MDR cells the first time. The only known

treatment

to do this is Paw Paw, as just mentioned. However, Protocel works in

a

very similar way to Paw Paw, and may also kill MDR cells. This is an

item currently under research. Use Paw Paw for now.

While MDR cells do not form from the use of natural substances, is

there

the possibility that some cancer cells do become resistant to an

alternative cancer treatment plan? They would not be MDR cells, but

they

would be resistant to a specific treatment.

This possibility is not likely, but it may exist. They would be

cancer

cells that become resistant in the same way as the virus example

mentioned above.

In any case, it is critical to keep in mind the various things that

might be going on. The solution might turn out to be as simple as

changing vendors, because there are a lot of alternative treatment

vendors who make substandard and inconsistent products. The solution

may

be to change treatments, because not all alternative cancer

treatments

are equally powerful.

Or the only solution might be to add Paw Paw and learn how to use it

right.
