Most of us are going to be surprised to find out that there is an

oncologist in Rome Italy,_Dr. Tullio Simoncini_

(http://www.curenaturalicancro.com/) , destroying cancer tumors with sodium

bicarbonate. Sodium

bicarbonate is safe, extremely inexpensive and unstoppably effective when it

comes to

cancer tissues. It’s an irresistible chemical, cyanide to cancer cells for

it hits the cancer cells with a shock wave of alkalinity, which allows

much more oxygen into the cancer cells than they can tolerate. Cancer cells

cannot survive in the presence of high levels of oxygen. Sodium bicarbonate

is, for all intent and purposes, an instant killer of tumors. Full treatment

takes only days, as does another cancer treatment that heats the cancer

cells with laser generated heat. (At bottom see combining pH shift with

heat.)

The extracellular (interstitial) pH (pHe) of solid tumours is

significantly more acidic compared to normal tissues. [ii]

Case one: A patient diagnosed with pulmonary neoplasm of the lung,

underwent treatment with sodium bicarbonate, before submitting to surgery to

remove part of the lung. Treatment consisted of sodium bicarbonate administered

orally, by aerosol, and IV. After first treatment reduction of nodules and

absorption was evident, and after 8 months was no longer visible at all.

Treatments also reduced size of the liver and results were confirmed by both

X-ray and CAT scan.

Studies have shown how manipulation of tumour pH with sodium bicarbonate

enhances some forms of chemotherapy.[iii] Proteins can be modified both in

vivo and in vitro by increases in acidity. In fact pH is the regulatory

authority that controls most cellular processes. The pH balance of the human

bloodstream is recognized by medical physiology texts as one of the most

important biochemical balances in all of human body chemistry. pH is the acronym

for " Potential Hydrogen " . In definition, it is the degree of concentration

of hydrogen ions in a substance or solution. It is measured on a

logarithmic scale from 0 to 14. Higher numbers mean a substance is more

alkaline in

nature and there is a greater potential for absorbing more hydrogen ions.

Lower numbers indicate more acidity with less potential for absorbing

hydrogen ions.

Our body pH is very important because pH controls the speed of our body's

biochemical reactions. It does this by controlling the speed of enzyme

activity as well as the speed that electricity moves through our body. The

higher (more alkaline) the pH of a substance or solution, the more electrical

resistance that substance or solution holds. Therefore, electricity travels

slower with higher pH. If we say something has an acid pH, we are saying it

is hot and fast. Alkaline pH on the other hand, biochemically speaking, is

slow and cool.

Cancer tissues have a much higher concentration of toxic chemicals,

pesticides, etc then do healthy tissues.

In 1973, a study conducted by the Department of Occupational Health at

Hebrew University-Hadassah Medical School in Jerusalem found that when

cancerous breast tissue is compared with non-cancerous tissue from elsewhere in

the same woman's body, the concentration of toxic chemicals such as DDT and

PCBs was " much increased in the malignant tissue compared to the normal

breast and adjacent adipose tissue. " [iv] This should say something to the

oncologists of the world about chemical etiologies that are going undiagnosed

and untreated.

Part of any successful cancer treatment includes chelation and

detoxification of heavy metals and a host of toxic chemicals, which are all

invading

our bodies’ everyday. It is literally raining mercury, uranium contamination

is increasing, lead we are discovering is even more toxic than anyone ever

believed and is even in the bread that we eat, arsenic is in our chicken,

the government still wants you to get your yearly mercury flu shot,

dentists of course are still using hundreds of tons of mercury exposing patients

to internalized toxic waste dumps (mercury vapors from hell), fluoride is

still put in the water and chlorine is breathed in most showers. This just

covers a small slice of the toxic disaster that is the hallmark of life in the

21st century. But oncologists have just not been able to understand that

cancer patients are suffering from poisoning on a massive scale with all the

chemicals scientists have already established cause cancer.

The IMVA recommends alkaline foods and sodium bicarbonate so that the pH

of the blood remains high, which in turn means that the blood is capable of

carrying more oxygen. This in turn keeps every cell in the body at peak

efficiency and helps the cell eliminate waste products. Detoxification and

chelation will proceed more easily and safely under slightly alkaline

conditions. Increased urinary pH reduces oxidative injury in the kidney so it

behooves us to work clinically with bicarbonate.

Patients receiving sodium bicarbonate achieved urine pHs of 6.5 as opposed

to 5.6 with those receiving sodium chloride. This alkalinization is

theorized to have a protective effect against the formation of free-radicals

that

may cause nephropathy.[v]

Dr. Michael Metro

Body pH level changes are intense in the profundity of their biological

effects. Even genes directly experience external pH. pH differentially

regulates a large number of proteins. Increased oxidative stress, which

correlates almost exponentially with pH changes into the acidic, is especially

dangerous to the mitochondria, which suffer the greatest under oxidative

duress.

Epigenetics, which may now have begun eclipsing traditional genetics,

commonly describes how factors such as diet and smoking, rather than

inheritance influence how genes behave.

The great advantage of knowing the prime cause of a disease is that it can

then be attacked logically and over a broad front.

Dr. Otto Warburg

Dr. Otto Warburg, two times Nobel Prize winner, stated in his book, The

Metabolism of Tumors that the primary cause of cancer was the replacement of

oxygen in the respiratory cell chemistry by the fermentation of sugar. The

growth of cancer cells is initiated by a fermentation process, which can be

triggered only in the absence of oxygen at the cell level. What Warburg

was describing was a classic picture of acidic conditions. Just like

overworked muscle cells manufacture lactic acid by-products as waste, cancerous

cells spill lactic acid and other acidic compounds causing acid pH.

After we just saw how important sulfur is in human health and how useful a

basic chemical like sodium thiosulfate can be, we now get a crash course

in the power of sodium bicarbonate and the act of instantly turning cancer

cells alkaline. Might as well shoot a guided cruise missile at them - so

effective, safe, quick and precise is sodium bicarbonate, inexpensive as well.

Just a few pennies a day of it will keep cancer further away, keeping it

at arms length from ourselves, patients and loved ones. It is something we

can use to treat our water with as well, excellent to put in distilled or

reverse osmosis water or any water for that matter.

A true understanding of cancer is impossible without understanding why

some tissues in the body are deficient in oxygen and therefore prone to

cancer. Cancerous tissues are acidic, whereas healthy tissues are alkaline.

Water

(H2O) decomposes into H+ and OH-. When a solution contains more H+ than

OH- then it is said to be acid. When it contains more OH- than H+ then it is

said to be alkaline. When oxygen enters an acid solution it can combine

with H+ ions to form water. Oxygen helps to neutralize the acid, while at the

same time the acid prevents oxygen from reaching the tissues that need it.

Acidic tissues are devoid of free oxygen. An alkaline solution is just the

reverse. Two hydroxyl ions (OH-) can combine to produce one water molecule

and one oxygen atom. In other words, an alkaline solution can provide

oxygen to the tissues.

The pH scale goes from 0 to 14, with 7 being neutral. Below 7 is acid and

above 7 is alkaline. The blood, lymph and cerebral spinal fluid in the

human body are designed to be slightly alkaline at a pH of 7.4.

At a pH slightly above 7.4 cancer cells become dormant and at pH 8.5

cancer cells will die while healthy cells will live. This has given rise to a

variety of treatments based on increasing the alkalinity of the tissues such

as vegetarian diet, the drinking of fresh fruit and vegetable juices, and

dietary supplementation with alkaline minerals such as calcium, potassium,

magnesium, cesium and rubidium. But nothing can compare to the instant

alkalinizing power of sodium bicarbonate for safe and effective treatment of

cancer.

Like magnesium chloride or sulfates are excellent emergency medicines,

basic chemicals, nutritional in nature, sodium bicarbonate is a nutritional

medicine meaning it cannot and will not end up controlled by CODEX. To

control bicarbonate they would have to demand mothers stop making cake with it.

We might thus identify sodium bicarbonate as an emergency medicine for

cancer with the above supporting approaches working on broader levels to help

overall physiology change to a degree where body chemistry is unfavorable for

new cancer growth.

Cancer seems to grow slowly in a highly acid environment (because the

acids cause it to partially destroy itself) and may actually grow more quickly

as your body becomes more alkaline prior to reaching the healthy pH

slightly above 7.4 where the cancer becomes dormant. Therefore it is important

to

get pH above 7.4 quickly. Once one has achieved a pH above 7.4, it is useful

to monitor saliva pH regularly to ensure that the body remains

sufficiently alkaline.

Earlier and more frequent use of sodium bicarbonate was associated with

higher early resuscitability rates and with better long-term neurological

outcome. Sodium bicarbonate is beneficial during CPR.[vi]

**The therapeutic treatment of bicarbonate salts can be administered

orally, through aerosol, intravenously and through catheter for direct

targeting

of tumors.** All of Dr. Tullio Simoncini’s treatments with sodium

bicarbonate are directed as specifically as possible to the organs involved,

for

example, vaginally as well as abdominally into the peritoneal space for

cervical cancer, through the hepatic artery for liver cancer in order to get

the

solution as close to the affected area as possible. Sodium bicarbonate

administered orally, via aerosol or intravenously can achieve positive results

in most tumors, including the brain, while others, such as the serious

ones of the bones can remain unaffected. Dr. Simoncini, with the help of

interventionist radiologists was able to reach those areas of the body that had

previously been inaccessible. This was achieved through positioning

appropriate catheters either in cavities for peritoneum and pleura, or in

arteries

to reach other organs.[vii]

The most effective measure to treat RT-induced mucositis in patients with

head and neck cancer is frequent oral rinsing with a sodium bicarbonate

rinse, to reduce the amount of oral microbial flora.[viii]

Case two: A nine-year-old child is hospitalized and diagnosed with Ewing’s

Sarcoma on the right humerus. Despite several chemotherapy cycles surgery

removed the humeral bone. Growth of three tumor masses continued despite

continued efforts to stop progression. Sodium bicarbonate salts treatment

were then started administered by catheter into the right sub-clavian artery

in order to administer the salts (phleboclysis of 500 cc at five per cent)

directly on the tumoral masses. Of the 3 masses shown by the scographic scan

of May 7, 2001, whose size is respectively:

a. 6.5 cm

b. 4.4 cm

c. 2.4 cm

After the sodium bicarbonate salts treatment only one tumor was left, with

a size of only 1.5 cm, which is most likely residual scarring, as shown by

the echography of September 10, 2001.

Sodium bicarbonate injection is also indicated in the treatment of

metabolic acidosis which may occur in severe renal disease, uncontrolled

diabetes,

and circulatory insufficiency due to shock or severe dehydration,

extracorporeal circulation of blood, cardiac arrest and severe primary lactic

acidosis. Sodium bicarbonate is further indicated in the treatment of drug

intoxications, including barbiturates. Sodium carbonate has been found

effective

in treating poisoning or overdose from many chemicals and pharmaceutical

drugs by negating the cardiotoxic and neurotoxic effects. [ix]

Sodium bicarbonate is useful in treating neurological disorders in

children.

An extremely simple therapy used by physicians who treat autism is to

supply a mild antidote that neutralizes the excess acids. The most convenient

product is a nonprescription drug called AlkaSeltzer Goldâ„¢. Do not use any

other kind of AlkaSeltzerâ„¢. AlkaSeltzer Goldâ„¢ is simply a very safe product

(sodium and potassium bicarbonate) that helps to neutralize excess acids

of any kind.

Dr. William Shaw

Biological Treatments for Autism and PDD

Knowledge of sodium bicarbonate is important for parents because the rate

of childhood cancer is growing exponentially. But parents who resist the

radiation burning, cutting and the lethal chemicals are regularly hauled

before the courts only to have their children taken away from them. Oncologists

are increasingly resorting to the justice system to have children made

wards of the courts who then turn them over to medically irresponsible

practitioners. It is inexcusable separating a child from his mother and father

in

the middle of a medical crisis. Adding to the stress by tormenting patients’

hearts and souls has nothing to do with safe or effective medicine. The

naked truth is doctors and medical institutions have not earned the necessary

trust for this level of intervention in people’s lives. With patient

safety slipping year by year,[x] children are not safe in hospitals, much less

so if forced at gunpoint from their parents embrace.

One mother wrote, **It worked so well for both of my children that the

die-off was an uneventful experience, even though they both had very high

levels of yeast.** The restoring of acid/alkaline balance also relieves many

allergies. **These children also had grave disturbances in electrolyte

chemistry, and tended to be acidotic (low CO). The data that unfolded was

fascinating and clearly earmarked the acidosis and hypoxic state (low serum

bicarbonate = low O2 levels). Potassium bicarbonate, sodium bicarbonate,

magnesium carbonate and the like were used. Now we began to understand why so

many

children responded to Buffered C (potassium bicarbonate, calcium carbonate,

magnesium carbonate), and others needed a more specific buffer (in some

children for example niacin was grossly depleted and they required niacin

bicarbonate),** wrote Patricia Kane.

The acid/alkaline balance is one of the most overlooked aspects of health,

though many have written much about it. In general, the American public is

heavily acid, excepting vegetarians.

Case three: A 62-year-old patient undergoes surgery in December 1998 for

endometrial adenocarcinoma, followed by successive cycles of radiotherapy

and anti-hormone therapy. Following the thickening of the peritoneum and the

growth of several lymph nodes due to carcinosis; from the clinical point of

view, the patient’s condition decayed with the presence of exhaustion,

general swelling, intestinal meteorism, irregularity of evacuation, steady

feeling of heaviness and blood pressure instability. Treatment with a 5%

sodium bicarbonate solution administered alternately thru an endoperitoneal

catheter and via IV showed rapid improvement to a normal condition of health. A

final CAT scan confirms the regression of the peritoneal carcinosis and a

stabilization of the size of the lymph nodes when compared to the preceding

year.

The kidneys are usually the first organs to show chemical damage upon

uranium exposure, military manuals suggest doses or infusions of sodium

bicarbonate to help alkalinize the urine if this happens. This makes the uranyl

ion less kidney-toxic and promotes excretion of the nontoxic

uranium-carbonate complex. The oral administration of sodium bicarbonate

diminishes the

severity of the changes produced by uranium in the kidneys.[xi]

Case four: A 40-year-old patient underwent surgical intervention (left

radical mastectomy) for mammarian carcinoma seven months earlier. After three

months of chemotherapy, the patient is affected by: “diffused pulmonary and

hepatic metastasis; bone metastasis particularly to the fifth and sixth

lumbar vertebrae, with invasion and compression of the medullar channel,

which is causing extreme pain which makes the patient unresponsive to any

treatment.†All pain suppressant drugs – morphine included – are totally

ineffective and the patient is totally prostrate even unable to sleep. Believing

that fungal colonies amassed in the medullar channel will respond to

administration of sodium bicarbonate salts, lumbar injections are begun.

Dr Tullio Simoncini recounts: " As I administer it by slowly injecting 50

cc of sodium bicarbonate solution at 8.4 %, the patient tosses and with a

thread of a voice confesses to me that she has slept only two hours in the

last week. Exhausted, she whispers to me: “If only I could sleep half an hour

tonight.†But the day after, she calls me on the phone and says: “I have

slept all nightâ€. After two more lumbar injections of the bicarbonate salts

in the next month, the pain disappeared completely. Magnetic Resonance

imaging reports performed before and after treatment were defined by hospital

head of the radiology department as " shocking. "

Sodium bicarbonate is the chemical compound with the formula NaHCO3.

Sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) is commonly used as an antacid for short-term

relief of stomach upset, to correct acidosis in kidney disorders, to make

the urine alkaline during bladder infections and to minimize uric acid

crystallization during gout treatment. Prescription sodium bicarbonate products

are given by injection to treat metabolic acidosis and some drug

intoxications. Sodium bicarbonate is available as a nonprescription medical as

well as

a general house hold item. It is also used with other non-prescription

drugs for short-term treatment of various conditions to treat anything from

fever to moderate pain.

Sodium bicarbonate possesses the property of absorbing heavy metals,

dioxins and furans. Comparison of cancer tissue with healthy tissue from the

same person shows that the cancer tissue has a much higher concentration of

toxic chemicals, pesticides, etc.

Sodium bicarbonate neutralizes acids present in gases (in particular

hydrochloric acid, suphur dioxide, hydrofluoric acid) to form sodium salts

(sodium chloride, sodium sulphate, sodium fluoride, sodium carbonate), which

are

all known as Residual Sodium Chemicals. Sodium bicarbonate can be made

into a paste salve with vinegar, it relieves burning from bug stings

(particularly bee stings), poison ivy, nettles, and sunburn. It is used as an

antacid to treat acid indigestion and heartburn. Mixed with water in a 10%

solution can soften earwax for removal.

Substituting a sodium bicarbonate solution for saline infusion prior to

administration of radiocontrast material seems to reduce the incidence of

nephropathy.[xii]

Dr. Thomas P. Kennedy

American Medical Association

Because sodium bicarbonate has long been known and is widely used, it has

many other names including sodium hydrogen carbonate, sodium bicarb, baking

soda, bread soda, cooking soda, bicarb soda, saleratus or bicarbonate of

soda. It is soluble in water. This white solid is crystalline but often

appears as a fine powder. It has a slight alkaline taste resembling that of

sodium carbonate. It is a component of the mineral natron and is found

dissolved in many mineral springs. It is also produced artificially. World wide

production is on the scale of 100,000 ton/year. Sodium bicarbonate is

primarily used in cooking (baking) where it reacts with other components to

release

carbon dioxide, that helps dough " rise. "

It is commonly used to increase the pH and total alkalinity of the water

for pools and spas. Sodium bicarbonate can be added as a simple solution for

restoring the pH balance of water that has a high level of chlorine. It is

sometimes used in septic tanks to control pH and bacteria.

Sodium bicarbonate-rich mineral water in conjunction with a low-salt diet

may have a beneficial effect on calcium homeostasis.[xiii]

Distilled water is not safe, it lacks bicarbonates and minerals and yes,

it is acid forming to the body. Yet it is an excellent aid in detoxification

and chelation for its purity pulls on toxicities in the body. Part of the

reason why our body is acid is that it lacks enough bicarbonate necessary

to neutralize the acid. Whenever the water lacks the proper bicarbonates to

neutralize the water in distilled water your body basically becomes a

little more acid. But we can easily treat distilled or reverse osmosis water by

adding bicarbonate and magnesium and perhaps even some sodium thiosulfate.

pH of the blood is the most important factor to determine the state of the

microorganisms in the blood.

The native chemical and physical properties of sodium bicarbonate account

for its wide range of applications, including cleaning, deodorizing,

buffering, and fire extinguishing. Sodium bicarbonate neutralizes odors

chemically, rather than masking or absorbing them. Consequently, it is used in

bath

salts and deodorant body powders. Sodium bicarbonate tends to maintain a pH

of 8.1 (7 is neutral) even when acids, which lower pH, or bases, which

raise pH, are added to the solution. Its ability to tabletize makes it a good

effervescent ingredient in antacids and denture cleaning products. Sodium

bicarbonate is also found in some anti-plaque mouthwash products and

toothpaste.

Sodium bicarbonate also is indicated in severe diarrhea which is often

accompanied by a significant loss of bicarbonate. Vigorous bicarbonate therapy

is required in any form of metabolic acidosis where a rapid increase in

plasma total CO2 content is crucial † e.g. cardiac arrest, circulatory

insufficiency due to shock or severe dehydration , and in severe primary lactic

acidosis or severe diabetic acidosis.

Sodium Bicarbonate Injection, USP is administered by the intravenous

route. In cardiac arrest, a rapid intravenous dose of one to two 50 mL vials

(44.6 to 100 mEq) may be given initially and continued at a rate of 50 mL

(44.6 to 50 mEq) every 5 to 10 minutes if necessary (as indicated by arterial

pH and blood gas monitoring) to reverse the acidosis. Caution should be

observed in emergencies where very rapid infusion of large quantities of

bicarbonate is indicated. Bicarbonate solutions are hypertonic and may produce

an

undesirable rise in plasma sodium concentration in the process. of

correcting the metabolic acidosis. In cardiac arrest, however, the risks from

acidosis exceed those of hypernatremia.

In the current system, if a promising compound can’t be patented, it is

highly unlikely ever to make it to market — no matter how well it performs in

the laboratory or in emergency room situations. The hormone

melatonin,[xiv] sold as an inexpensive food supplement in the United States, has

repeatedly been shown to slow the growth of various cancers when used in

conjunction with conventional treatments. Dr. Paolo Lissoni, another Italian

oncologist has written many articles about this hormone and conducted clinical

trials. But he has despaired over the pharmaceutical industry’s total lack of

interest in his treatment approach.

We need a new approach to fight cancer, one that will work safely and

effectively since the majority of us are now destined to have to suffer through

cancer at one point or another in our lives. The situation in the field of

oncology is horrendous and in the area of childhood oncology they have

earned their place in the book The Terror of Pediatric Medicine, (which one can

download as a free e-book.)

Most people today cringe at the idea of finding a cancer then slashing,

burning and poisoning it to smithereens. Most would agree that the mainstream

cancer approach offers only marginal benefits at best, and providers push

screening and aggressive treatment in part because they have nothing else

to give, and also because it’s very profitable.

If the body’s cellular metabolism and pH is balanced it is susceptible to

little illness or disease. Since 1971, when President Nixon declared war on

cancer, the budget of the National Cancer Institute has increased to $4.8

billion from half a billion and cancer rates are still going up. For most

of the past half-century, medical treatment of invasive tumors like those of

the breast and colon has relied mainly on drugs, radiation or both, in

effect carpet-bombing the DNA of cancer cells. These highly toxic treatments do

not address the root causes of cancer and are extremely dangerous, medical

approaches involving the highest risks.

The great variety of cancers must reflect a fundamental mechanism by which

the disease arises, one that has not been so clearly apparent until now.

Though allopathic medicine already uses sodium bicarbonate it will not any

day soon turn to its own arsenal of already available safe and inexpensive

medications like sodium bicarbonate or magnesium chloride. The medical

industrial complex seems unwilling to change its views on cancer so patients

will need to quietly ask their doctors for intravenous bicarbonate without

specifying it as a substance they want to use to cure their cancer. It will be

easier to find someone if one approaches with a need to treat acidic

conditions than the actual cancer. Few doctors are willing to risk their

licenses so it is better not to put them in an uncomfortable situation that they

cannot control.

The closer the pH is to 7.35 - 7.45, the higher our level of health and

well being and our ability to resist states of disease. Sadly this does not

address the need for the use of catheters which target tumors more directly

thus pushing us toward a more complete protocol that will target cancer in

a more general and comprehensive way. This needs to be done anyway because

killing the tumor with a rush of alkalinity that provokes an oxygen rush

into the cells will not prevent the condition from reoccurring. Though we can

think that acidity is a basic cause of cancer a more basic cause is

addressed when we look at what leads to the acidic conditions that are so

prevalent in our bodies today.

Sodium bicarbonate is an anti-fungin substance that is very diffusible and

thus very effective. Dr Tullio Simoncini says, “It is useful to consider

the extreme sensitivity of fungi to saline and electrolytic solutions. These

solutions, because of their extreme capacity for diffusion, are able to

reach all the myceliar biological expressions, including the most

infinitesimal ones. Salts and bicarbonates, by making the “terrainâ€

completely

inorganic, eliminates the slightest organic fonts that fungi could use for

nourishment. In this context, sodium bicarbonate, which is currently used in

children’s oral candidoses, appears to be a simple and handy weapon capable

of

uprooting, inhibiting, or attenuating any neoplastic formation wherever it

is possible to easily apply it.â€

Cancer is actually a four-letter word — ACID, especially lactic acid as a

waste product due to the low oxygen level and waste products of yeast and

fungus.

For centuries, medicated baths have been one of the first lines of

treatment for psoriasis. Even today, with sophisticated immunosuppressive

treatments available, Dead Sea salts and spa waters are recognized to be

beneficial

in the management of psoriatic patients.

To assess statistically the efficacy of sodium bicarbonate baths in

psoriasis patients, thirty-one patients with mild-moderate psoriasis were

studied. Almost all patients who used NaHCO3- reported a statistically valuable

improvement. NaHCO3- baths reduced itchiness and irritation; in general, the

patients themselves recognized a beneficial impact on their psoriasis, so

much so that they have continued to bathe in NaHCO3- even after the end of

the study. [xv]

“Sodium bicarbonate therapy is harmless, fast and effective because it is

extremely diffusible. A therapy with bicarbonate for cancer should be set

up with strong dosage, continuously, and with pauseless cycles in a

destruction work which should proceed from the beginning to the end without

interruption for at least 7-8 days. In general a mass of 2-3-4 centimetres will

begin to consistently regress from the third to the fourth day, and collapses

from the fourth to the fifth. Generally speaking, the maximum limit of the

dosage that can be administered in a session gravitates around 500 cc of

sodium bicarbonate at five per cent solution, with the possibility of

increasing or decreasing the dosage by 20 per cent in function of the body mass

of

the individual to be treated and in the presence of multiple localisations

upon which to apportion a greater quantity of salts,†instructs Dr

Simoncini.

In the early stages of acidic pH in the body’s tissues, the warning

symptoms are mild. These include such things as skin eruptions, headaches,

allergies, colds, flu and sinus problems. These symptoms are frequently treated

(manipulated) with antibiotic drugs and suppressive medications. The longer

and the deeper we become acidic the more our illness takes hold so it’s

best to fight acidic conditions early on and in every presenting clinical

situation. Certainly a highly toxic drug like anti viral Tamiflu won’t do a

fraction of the job sodium bicarbonate will do especially if it’s combined

with magnesium chloride and iodine as well as high levels of vitamin C.

In late stages of acidic pH we need to turn to the most alkaline minerals

to increase our throw weight of alkalinity into cancer cells. Mass

spectrographic and isotope studies have shown that potassium, rubidium, and

especially cesium are most efficiently taken up by cancer cells. This uptake was

enhanced by Vitamins A and C as well as salts of zinc and selenium. The

quantity of cesium taken up was sufficient to raise the cell to the 8 pH range.

[xvi]

There seems little grace left in medicine and it is a disgrace that

allopathic medicine does not even use its own emergency medicines, proven

heavies

like magnesium sulfate and chloride, sodium bicarbonate and iodine to

anywhere near a thousandth of a percent of their real medical potentials.

Combining pH shift with Heat

In the opening paragraph of this article we mentioned killing cancer cells

with lasers, with heat.

Give me a chance to create fever and I will cure any disease.

Parmenides

2,000 years ago

Fever is one of the body's own defensive and healing forces, created and

sustained for the deliberate purpose of restoring health. The high

temperature speeds up metabolism, inhibits the growth of the invading virus or

bacteria, and literally burns the enemy with heat. Fever is an effective

protective and healing measure not only against colds and simple infections,

but

against such serious diseases as polio and cancer.

The idea of destroying cancer with heat is certainly not new and has been

widely accepted for a very long time, but has had very limited applications

because it was finally concluded that, in order to ensure destruction of

the cancerous growth, it is necessary to reach a temperature deadly to

healthy cells as well. Many attempts have been made to bypass this problem and

some methodologies have been developed like: localized hyperthermia,

laserthermia, radio-fractionated hyperthermia and TTT. But they all have

limitations and cannot complete the job, because they cannot achieve total

necrosis

and, unless the entire mass of neoplastic tissue is destroyed, the cancer

will continue to grow. But:

Hyperthermia gives cancer a hard time:

-- removing accumulations of stored toxic chemicals that cause cancer

-- improving circulation so that tissues are both nourished with oxygen

and flushed of acidic metabolic wastes

-- weakening or even killing cancer cells that have a lower tolerance for

heat than healthy cells.

Thus we should easily conclude that far-infrared sauna treatments are

going to help a cancer sufferer no matter which way we slice the treatment

protocol. But for a more targeted heat to kill cancer tumors we have Dr.

Antonella Carpenter who has perfected the treatment of cancer cells with heat

through her use of lasers. She generates the death of the cells by suffocation

via heat. Dr Carpenter, a physicist with a clinic in Little Rock, says, “

As long as the entire neoplastic mass is exposed to the laser light, for the

correct amount of time, the success is complete and the results, as well as

the healing stages, are always the same.†Her cancer treatment is called

Light Induced Enhanced Selective Hyperthermia

_http://www.lasemedinc.com/LEISH_Therapy.html_

(http://www.lasemedinc.com/LEISH_Therapy.html) , which in

itself pretty much summarizes all the characteristics of this new therapy.

With this form of treatment cancer cells reach a deadly temperature level

quickly and are subject to irreversible damage and therefore die, either

immediately or within 48 hours.

In a separate chapter we will be talking about hyperthermia in another

context, that of the hot bathtub which we will learn to fill with healing

substances like sodium bicarbonate. We will be creating our own hot springs,

healing pools that will do wonders for our health. Medical treatments of the

first order can be had right inside your very own bathtub.

same time, all other known cancer risks--alcohol consumption, fat intake,

lack of fruits and vegetables in the diet--increased significantly. During

this period, worldwide death rates from cancer increased by 4%. The only

answer scientists could find to explain this was the reduced level of

environmental toxins.

[vii] With the aim to reach the maximum effect, sodium bicarbonate should

be administered directly on the neoplastic masses which are susceptible of

regression only by destroying the fungal colonies. This is possible by the

selective arteriography (the visualisation through instrumentation of

specific arteries) and by the positioning of the arterial port-a-cath (these

devices are small basins used to join the catheter). These methods allow the

positioning of a small catheter directly in the artery that nourishes the

neoplastic mass, allowing the administration of high dosages of sodium

bicarbonate in the deepest recesses of the organism. With this method, it is

possible to reach almost all organs; they can be treated and can benefit from a

therapy with bicarbonate salts which is harmless, fast, and effective –

with only the exception of some bone areas such as vertebrae and ribs, where

the scarce arterial irrigation does not allow sufficient dosage to reach the

targets. Selective arteriography therefore represents a very powerful

weapon against fungi that can always be used against neoplasias, firstly

because it is painless and leaves no after effects, secondly because the risks

are very low.

[ix] These include, Benzotropines (valium) cyclic antidepressants

(amytriptayine), organophosphates, methanol (Methyl alcohol is a cheap and

potent

adulterant of illicit liquors) Diphenhydramine (Benedryl), Beta blockers

(propanalol) Barbiturates, and Salicylates (Aspirin). Poisoning by drugs that

block voltage-gated sodium channels produces intraventricular conduction

defects, myocardial depression, bradycardia, and ventricular arrhythmias.

Human and animal reports suggest that hypertonic sodium bicarbonate may be

effective therapy for numerous agents possessing sodium channel blocking

properties, including cocaine, quinidine, procainamide, flecainide, mexiletine,

bupivacaine, and others.

[x] Patient safety incidents in U.S. hospitals increased by three percent

overall from 2003 to 2005, and the error gap between the nation's best- and

worst-performing hospitals remained wide. America's top rated centers had

40 percent lower rates of medical errors than the poorest-performing

hospitals, the study showed. The fourth annual HealthGrades Patient Safety in

American Hospitals Study, put out by HealthGrades, an independent health care

ratings company, examined over 40 million Medicare hospitalization records

at almost 5,000 hospitals from 2003 to 2005. _http://news._

[xiv] One of the most important supplements for the breast cancer patient

is high doses of the hormone melatonin at bedtime. Melatonin blocks

estrogen receptors somewhat similarly to the drug tamoxifen without the

long-term

side effects of tamoxifen. Further, when melatonin and tamoxifen are

combined, synergistic benefits occur. Melatonin can be safely taken for an

indefinite period of time. The suggested dose of melatonin for breast cancer

patients is 3 mg to 50 mg at bedtime. Caution: Although melatonin is strongly

recommended for breast cancer patients, interleukin-2 (IL-2), which often is

combined with melatonin, should be avoided by breast cancer patients. IL-2

may promote breast cancer cell division.

[xvi] " A mass spectrographic analysis of cancer cells showed that the cell

membrane readily attached cesium, rubidium and potassium, and transmitted

these elements with their associated molecules into the cancer cell. In

contrast cancer membranes did not transmit sodium, magnesium, and calcium into

the cell: the amount of calcium within a cancer cell is only about 1% of

that for normal cells. Potassium transports glucose into the cell. Calcium

and magnesium transport oxygen into the cell. As a consequence of the above,

oxygen cannot enter cancer cells so the glucose which is normally burned to

carbon dioxide and water undergoes fermentation to form lactic acid within

the cell. This anaerobic condition was pointed out by Warburg, as early as

1924. Potassium, and especially rubidium and cesium are the most basic of

the elements. When they are taken up by the cancer cells they will thus

raise the pH of the cells. Since they are very strong bases as compared to the

weak lactic acid it is possible that the pH will be raised to values in

the 8.5 to 9 range. In this range the life of the cancer cell is short, being

a matter of days at the most. The dead cancer cells are then absorbed by

the body fluids and eventually eliminated from the system. " - Dr. Brewer
