Cancer: A Problem of Right and Wrong Fats & Lack of Sunlight?

What would you think if you heard someone claim that there is a

diet-based protocol centered on the ingestion of two simple

foodstuffs plus sunlight that has actually healed numerous cases of

cancer including saving the so-called terminally ill - some given a

few hours to live!? If you react like many, you will think that this

sounds far too simplistic to be true.

 

And yet it is.

 

As Dr Willner, M.D., Ph.D. (The Cancer Solution) writes, " Numerous,

independent clinical studies published in major medical journals

world-wide confirm Dr. Budwig's findings….Over 40 years ago Dr

Budwig presented clear and convincing evidence, which has been

confirmed by

hundreds of other related scientific research papers since, that the

essential fatty acids were at the core of the answer to the cancer

problem…You will come to your own conclusions as to why this simple

effective prevention and therapy has not only been ignored—it has

been suppressed! " .

 

Or as someone commented, " Over the years I have been given

a lot of different advice as well, so when I heard about Dr Budwig's

protocol I too was very sceptical, until I tried it. "

 

Who Was Dr. Johanna Budwig?

 

Dr. Johanna Budwig (born 30 September 1908, died 19 May 2003,

pronounced Yaw-hun-nah Bood-vig), a seven-times Nobel prize nominee,

was a qualified German pharmacologist, chemist and physicist with a

doctorate in chemistry and physics who worked as the chief expert-

consultant for drugs and fats at the former Bundesanstalt für

Fettforschung (Federal Institute for Fats Research).

 

Described as " the world's leading authority on fats and oils " , Dr.

Budwig studied in-depth the effect of hydrogenated and other

denatured fats upon human health and found it to be desastrous,

while she discovered the truly " essential " and powerfully

healing nature of essential fatty acids on all manner of

degenerative diseases including cancer.

 

She authored several books (among them Cancer

- The Problem and The Solution, Das Fettsyndrom [The Fat Syndrome,

discussing the links between fats and next to all diseases of the

heart and lung as well as cancer], Krebs, ein Fettproblem [Cancer -

A Fat Problem, on the right choice and use of fats], Der Tod des

Tumors [The Death of the Tumor], as well as numerous scientific

papers and treatises in which she published her findings on the

critical importance of the right fatty acids and the deleterious

effect of the wrong fats on human health (the use of " wrong fats "

having become widespread since the

invention and ubiquitous introduction of the hydrogenation process

in order to extend the shelf life of fats and to create margarine).

 

Three of her works " FlaxOil As A True Aid Against Arthritis, Heart

Infarction, Cancer, And Other Diseases " (read excerpts here), " The

Oil

Protein Diet Cookbook " and the above-mentioned Cancer - The Problem

and

The Solution (excerpts here) have been translated into English. The

former, though a slender volume of only about 60 pages, is " packed

with

the most clear thinking on the genesis of serious diseases and

health

recovery " including healing cancer. The fact that so far solely

three of

Dr. Budwig's works are accessible to the English-speaking world

makes it

hard, however, to appreciate the true scope and breadth of her

protocol

and cancer treatment approach. While the situation is somewhat

better

for German readers, even these have access only to parts of her work

since a number of her books - in fact, the majority - are out of

print.

 

As other researchers who have offered a non-profitable and effective

way

of healing cancer or keeping it under control by preventing

metastasis,

Dr. Budwig and her work have been attacked and silenced by vested

medical, industrial and pharmaceutical interests throughout her life

(compare History of Cancer Treatment). As summarized by Cliff

Beckwith

who has kept his prostate cancer under control for over a

decade: " Dr.

Budwig to my knowledge had over 1000 documented successes. However,

her

work was not popular with the Oncology Industry in Europe. Her ideas

would have meant a lot of losses in the Food Industry [too];

especially

in the fats industry.

My cousin, Richard Beckwith, called her probably eleven years ago

and

talked to her about forty five minutes. She told him that American

doctors had come to Germany and been impressed with her work. Then

they

wanted to try to work out some way to have exclusive rights to her

methods in the United States and make a lot of money and she

wouldn't do

that.

She believed her work was very important and was anxious to see it

carried on but no one seemed interested unless they could make a lot

of

money.

I had Advanced [prostate] cancer and I could not wait for scientific

confirmation and began to use these ideas immediately. One thing led

to

another, none of it planned, and we have seen many folks recover

from

cancer or have lives greatly extended. A lot of that information is

at

www.beckwithfamily.com.

That is all based on anecdotal evidence. Other than the evidence in

Dr.

Budwig's records [as far as they are available in English] that is

all

there is. No one is doing any scientific testing. That is done to

prove

the value of drugs for profit and one cannot patent Flaxseed Oil.

....In my view there should be enough on those lists [the evidence

regularly reported on the Flaxseed Oil and Budwig discussion list]

and

what we have seen to at least cause someone really interested in

human

welfare to be curious. "

And it seems likely that apart from financial interests, human

failings

such as intellectual pride play a part in the silencing and ignoring

of

Dr. Budwig's apparently often life-saving discoveries. Cliff

Beckwith

again: " For the most part one cannot expect the doctors to place any

real credibility to the use of FO/CC [flax oil and cottage cheese].

It

seems incredible that anything could be successful other than what

they

are taught in Med school. Imagine the blow to one's ego if it became

official that something with which he or she is not familiar would

be

found to be much better than the things that were studied 10 years

to

learn. "
