According to the federal government of the United States, only doctors can give medical advice, Therefore, the information contained herein is not medical advice. As a reader you should use this information to decide on a treatment that's best for you and your body only at your own risk The federal government does not believe that you're truly capable of making informed decisions about what to do with your body by yourself Ifyou choose to believe them, do so at your own risk ‘As an English-speaking patient, your greatest chance of salvation is in books. There is a great deal of information online that can help you, but teasing apart fact from fiction is getting harder and harder. For the lay person who has never studied medicine and who has no knowledge of technology and practices like Search Engine Optimization (SEO) or psycho-linguistic tactics like Neuro-Linguistic Programming that can be used to hijack the truth, patients are at a significant disadvantage when trying to do honest-to-goodness research about a disease like cancer. In spring of 2019 Google and Facebook both started censoring all altemative cancer cure information so that the majority of American citizens will only be able to find information about chemotherapy and radiation therapies for cancer. Books. Reading, Leaming. These are the things through which you can still leam everything you need to know to cure cancer. Doctors today are educated about surgeries, technologies, and chemotherapies. But the cure for cancer has been discovered one hundred times over There are a number of ways to cure cancer and the vast majority of them involve naturally-occurring substances from herbs and superfoods to molecules, pH, and vibrational therapies. The cures for cancer have already been found in nature. They’re available to all of us for an affordable price, bbut doctors don’t peddle natural substances. The biggest, wealthiest people and corporations in the United States and the world have made their wealth off of sickness and the promotion of synthetic chemicals, the removal of flesh and organs, and technological sophistication that wows patients, luring them away from simple cures that may grow alongside the road or in the backyard Patients who find this hard to believe can read more and decide for themselves. Has cancer already been “cured”? Is it true that doctors were closer to curing cancer backe in the early 1900’s than they are today” Neatly every cure in this book has a political history that patients need to read and consider in order to decide for themselves whether or not they believe that a multitude of cures have already been found for cancer.‘No one can deny that reality is layered. That when you look at a chair, for example, that what you see depends on what you know about chairs, your experience with chairs, and on the technology at your disposal with which to view the chair and its component materials and parts It also depends on how close you are to the chair. If you use a microscope to zoom in on the chair, the chair itself disappears completely and your awareness ofits atoms and molecules become aseality. On the other hand, if you were to ride in a hot air-balloon up to 300 or S00 feet, the chair would disappear and blend into its surroundings, a tiny pixel of color and nothing more. Most people accept the idea of atoms and molecules with all their spinning, ethereal whimsy and most people also accept the idea that energy and matter are really the same thing (E=mc?), but rarely do we really apply the idea of energy and matter, electrons and molecules to our daily lives. Similarly, we rarely have the time to really contemplate the details of the landscape of our lives. Most of us live our lives from a distance, as though we were looking down at things from a hot air balloon, We rely on the media: the news, advertising, movies, etc. to broadcast the important points of survival up to us from below. ‘A diagnosis of cancer can bring a person down to earth in a crash This encyclopedia of cancer cures is a down-to-earth guide to the treatments that people have used to cure cancer over the past 100 years or more. It was not written by doctors. It was written, by normal laypeople. But the information contained in this book will provide you with research that has been conducted by hundreds of doctors and researchers over the course of a century or more. The views presented in this book vary depending on the layer of reality each particular theorist, doctor, or researcher took when looking at cancer. But the most amazing thing about what's presented here is that despite the fact that these various scientists and doctors did not have the benefit of knowing about each other’s work (or political reasons), they came up with theories and treatments that complement each other and explain, down to the molecular and electrical basis of cancer, the mechanisms that lead to the disease, the mechanisms that can prevent it, and the mechanisms that can be used to treat it. ‘Again, the authors of this book are not doctors. We're average people with degrees in various fields, none of them medicine. Patients who are interested in the cancer cures presented in this book will have to decide for themselves whether they went to follow their dactor’s advice or whether they want to follow another treatment path. But know that the FDA would frown on any patient who decides to use this book as a guide. The FDA would use the word “unsafe” to describe some of the treatments in this book. The American Cancer Society would say that all the treatments presented in this book are “unproven”, The Sloan-Kettering Memorial Cancer treatment center would say that these treatments don’t work and they know it because their own Gigged) research has proven it. Itis only by understanding these organizations and their political make-up and financial motivations better that patients can make informed decisions about the cancer treatments recommended by doctors and other healers. I recommend that patients read and acknowledge the FDA, the American Cancer Society, and the Sloan-Kettering Memorial recommendations, but not before reading World Without Cancer by G. Edward Griffin, Griffin's book offers patients the tools they need to really understand the words used by theseorganizations to sell patients or deter patients from this treatment or that treatment in order to make informed decisions about their own path toward healing from cancer Many, ifnot most people who are diagnosed with cancer recoil from the idea of surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy but few people are aware of other treatment options for cancer. This encyclopedia is not to be used for diagnosis or treatment, of course. It’s merely a tool that, patients can use to be more creative on their cancer jouney. Talk to your doctor about this book: Yes, go head. But also read, Research. And use your intuition to make the final decision about how to heal your body. After all, it’s the only body you get to have in this lifetime Be wamed that while the big organizations that promote chemo, radiation, and surgery will focus very intently on the size of your tumor, this book: is about treating cancer holistically - in other words, as a disease affecting and emanating from physiological imbalances in the body as a whole. A significant proportion of most tumors are made up of dead cells and/or benign cells so the size of a tumor only matters ifthe tumor is going to cause pressure on a vital organ (the brain, for example), or ifit will impair the function of that organ (the stomach or intestines, for example). Further, among integrative practitioners of medicine, surgery isn’t usually advised because surgery can lower a patient's immunity, cause the tumor to metastasize, or cause damage to important organs that will be needed for healing The physical make-up of the cancer cell and tumors is described and illustrated in this book by theories and research that’s looked closely at the anatomy of cancer. But there are many layers to the reality of cancer and thus many ways to describe cancer in terms of its physical presence Some theorists and doctors aimed their research at molecules and even the electrical charge of the cancer cells. Still others have focused on the vibrational frequencies of cancer cells. Some scientists and doctors have discovered herbs that specifically target cancer cells. And others studied the important relationship between mycobacterium and cancer. They viewed cancer as an infection and developed vaccines and other technologies to treat it or to prevent it altogether. There are anumber of no-chemo, no-radiation treatment facilities out there today. Patients who are considering these facilities can use this book to leam about the treatments they're being offered and make critical decisions about which ones to pursue, Cancer can be a very expensive disease to treat. This book can help you decide which treatments are worth their cost and which ones are not Some of these treatments will surprise you. Working backwards from the various treatments that have worked to cure cancer, it’s possible to see a pattem emerge, one that can lead patients to better health overall. Indeed, anumber of the cancer cures listed in this encyclopedia are cures for other common diseases like arthritis, systemic Candida albicans, arteriosclerosis, Parkinson's disease, and even the common cold, The cancer cures are elegantly simple and when placed side-by-side, they hold promise to treat the most common and devastating diseases that afflict modem manCancer Protocols A cancer protocol is a set of treatments that take aim at cancer from different directions all at the same time. It’s always best for patients to approach the treatment of cancer using a protocol rather than just a stand-alone treatment. The reason why this is so is because cancer is a serious disease that often results when the body’s systems are failing on multiple levels. The cure for cancer seldom involves just one treatment. The cancer treatment Entelev (also known as Protocel and by other names) is unusual in that it is meant to be used totally by itself But most of the other treatments in this book are meant to be used in tandem with other treatments as part of a cancer protocol. The cancer protocol that most patients are familiar with is the one that conventional medicine and large corporations/powerful entities designed to make money from this medical model. It includes three elements: surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy. Sometimes patients get only one of the treatments offered in this protocol, but often, patients receive all three. Most patients approach this protocol with extreme dread because the side effects caused by this treatment protocol are worse than the disease itself But there are other cancer protocols out there. These cancer protocols have been designed by doctors as well as scientists in other fields. They're based on evidence-based medicine as opposed to consensus-based medicine. The conventional medical model uses consensus-based medicine, which basically means that a group of people (usually people with a financial interest in the outcomes) got together and decided a particular treatment was best for everyone regardless of the side effects, death rate, and quality of life issues caused by the “medication”) Consensus-based medicine is alot like the junior high dynamics/politics you might see among early teens in that the treatments that become the most popular aren't usually the nicest, smartest, or the strongest. Rather, they're the meanest and most insidious. How these treatments work, whether they work, what kinds of side effects, and adverse effects they cause, and their actual utility in treating cancer is hard fo verifi through personal experience. Most people feel when they look at the statistical data regarding cancer and conventional medical treatments that the statistics don’t match their personal experience in the real world. While the American Cancer Society claims that 63-70% of people with cancer who are treated with chemo, radiation, and surgery survive for at least 5 years, what they don’t tell you is that many of these people who survive are barely clinging to life. Personal experiences teaches us that. Indeed, conventional medicine patients are in debt up to their eyeballs following “treatment”. We can all attest to the budgetary horrors of conventional treatment through personal experience as well. But most importantly, we all fear cancer because we know it as a death sentence. Taking the conventional medicine route is a torture sentence that often leads eventually to death, usually as a result of side effects from the treatment. Most of us look around at the people we know who either have died or are still alive following cancer treatment with conventional medicine and our personal experiences tell us that the American Cancer Society’s statistics are incredibly 2-dimensional if not entirely false But conventional medicine is consensus-based, politically-based, and most importantly economically-based. Conventional medicine does not consider all of the research.and science currently available on the topic of cancer. It doesn’t have to, The people who decide which treatments are best do so on the basis of profits and political popularity. The cancer protocols offered in this book are based on the results obtained from research on groups of people. As such, they are all evidence-based. Some of them make use of conventional medical treatments. An example of an evidence-based treatment combined with a conventional medicine treatment is Insulin Potentiation Therapy (IPT). This therapy makes use of micro-doses of chemotherapy coupled with insulin therapy. The insulin carries the tiny doses of chemo directly to cancer cells and in this way, the therapy attempts to avoid killing healthy cells. For patients who are fearful about veering too far off the conventional medicine path, IPT is treatment option to consider But for patients who have had plenty of personal experiences with cancer, enough experiences to Jenow first-hand that surgery, chemo, and radiation are not the holy grail, there are many known cures available to choose from. For patients who choose this direction, healing can be like a joumey and each patient can choose the path that resonate with them ‘As you design your path and decide which treatment to use for healing, it seems important to reiterate again that Most of the experts in cancer treatment agree that the treatment of cancer should be approached asa protocol that includes therapies that complement and potentiate each other. In comparison with the conventional medicine treatments offered to cancer patients, many of the treatments outlined in this book are so simple, accessible, and affordable that it can be hard to believe that they could really work however this author has seen a number of these simple, affordable treatments cure cancer as well as candida, arthritis, and other major diseases like multiple sclerosis or diabetes. And the research that led to the development of each treatment is often compelling. But finding the compelling research is difficult, because these days, it’s easy for certain (very wealthy) individuals, organizations, and corporations to pay writers to write copious amounts of copy that includes either false or misleading information in order to cover up science, The average non-scientist-patient who gets diagnosed with cancer only uses his ture mind when doing Google searches. He/she looks for reliable Google results on a particular type of search (for example “prostate cancet”) instead of reading the actual scientific literature out there about prostate cancer. And even for the average patient who goes the distance and reads all the scientific research about prostate cancer, often the research must be vetted out carefully to determine whether it’s “real” or not (For example Who funded the study? Did they have a vested interest in the final results”). Studies can be fudged in a variety of intentional ways to get a certain desirable result that will support the use of a particular treatment that’s profitable for the group of people wito funded the research. This book provides a short section about the politics around each cancer treatment to give patients a sense of how cancer has been tumed into an industry that’s profitable to a select group of peopleEach treatment in this book includes a resources section where patients can go to find research and other materials that talk about the treatment, Some of the information is positive, some of it is negative. There are certain words that are used by the organizations that support The Cancer Industry in particular the words unproven and unsajé. These words were carefully chosen because they put a spin on information without actually telling aie. The word “unproven” does not mean the same thing as “disproven” in scientific circles. When you see this word in a Google search, note that “unproven” means that the treatment has not had the opportunity to be proven or disproven usually for lack of funds because funding agents who belong mostly to The Cancer Industry don’t want people to find out about it The word “unsafe”, in contrast does not mean the same thing as “dangerous”. This word seems to imply that a particular treatment is “unsafe for the patient” when in fact, the word has to do with economics. In the book, World Without Cancer by G. Edward Griffin, the origin of the word “unsafe” and its actual meaning is fleshed out in court proceedings. Treatments that have been deemed “unsafe” are actually “unsafe to the giant pharmaceutical companies” because they threaten to take business away from the pharmaceutical companies should patients find out the treatments’ true value, Patients who ‘would like to know more of the details of how The Cancer Industry has politically dodged so many cures for cancer and succeeded at misleading the public about conventional treatments should definitely read Griffin’s book cover-to-cover. Finding the research that supports the cancer cures listed in this volume can be difficult for patients who don’t have access to a“ gateway”. The gateway can be a book or the name of scientist, a study, or a protocol that leads to other information that can be followed like a breadcrumb trail. At least, this technique of doing research and finding facts is still useful at the time of this writing. Most patients can decide for themselves whether a particular body of research and information seems trustworthy enough for them to follow it. But alot of cancer patients don’t ever gain access to this information, For people who have not found a gateway to information about cancer cures yet, mundane searches on Google will yield only syndic information put out there by The Conventional Medicine Machine ‘Where to Start Cancer patients who are eager to get started on the road back to health can begin with a cancer diet. There are a number of cancer diets to choose from in the chapter on nutritional therapies These diets vary considerably in terms of the foods they include and the mechanisms by wh they work to kill cancer. Get started on a cancer diet right away. This will help you begin to rebuild your immune system and it will make your body less friendly to the cancer cells h ‘Next, you'll need to consider what types of treatments appeal to you. You'll also need to consider the prescription drugs you're currently taking and the health issues you're already battling and how these might interfere with, cancel out, or cause bad reactions if used with the treatments in this book. The authors of this book assumed that many of the readers have other health issues besides cancer. Since many of the treatments contained in this book target nat just cancer, but also other chronic degenerative or infectious diseases, we've included a list of those diseases in addition to cancer that can be targeted by the treatments. As aresult, a patient candesign a treatment plan for themselves that can help them battle not just cancer, but also arthritis, multiple sclerosis, ADHD, or cardiovascular disease among others. There are anumber of altemative and integrative cancer treatment facilities available throughout the world that offer treatment protocols other than the conventional radiation, chemo, and surgery. Some of these facilities are located in the United States, but many of them are abroad in other countries throughout the world, Treatment from these facilities ranges from $300 to $80,000. Many of them have aremarkably high cure rate, particularly for cancer patients who have not been exposed to the toxicities and trauma of surgery, chemo, or radiation. For patients who have been exposed to conventional medicine, the cure rate is still very hopeful in comparison with conventional treatments. Treatment facilities that advertise the various treatment modalities are listed whenever possible. Getting support at a treatment facility can help patients feel more confident about their treatment strategy which can be important, though facility-based treatment isn’t always necessary in order for patients to survive and thrive after a diagnosis of cancer. Many patients don’t have the funds to travel for treatment at a facility. For these patients, there are anumber of at-home treatment options. Supplies for these protocols can be purchased online or at the health food store in some cases. Don’t let their simplicity and affordability deter you from them. One of the first cancer cures this author leamed about is a weed (red clover) that grows in the author’s backyard. This herbal cancer treatment is powerful and effective and free to alarge population of people in North America who don’t spray their lawns for weeds (because the insecticide would be toxic even if the weed survived) Once you've decided on a cancer diet, decide on a healing strategy that resonates with you and choose treatments that won’t conflict with each other. Ideally, in fact, choose treatments that will complement and enhance each other. Read the research for each treatment you plan to use so that you can visualize how it’s working on your body to spur healing. It doesn’t matter whether you understand all the details at first, but by arming yourself with information from a variety of authors beyond just the information in this book, you'll feel more confident about your choices Confidence, in turn, along with a litle bit of faith and intuition will help you weather some of the challenges you'll certainly face in your healing process. For the people who heal from this disease, their healing joumey rarely proceeds along a straight upward course. Often, there are setbacks and moments of doubt, Stories of healing from cancer tend to highlight the surprising moments of hope-and-progress-against-all-odds. These stories focus on the doctor-antagonist who doubts the patient at every tum followed by incredible test results proving hope in a simple cure, But in between the excellent test results that prove the doctors wrong, each patient has days when he/she feels terrible and doubts the value of the treatment protocol they've committed to It's normal to have doubts, but more information can answer nagging questions and provide a strong psychological foundation for those treatments-for-which-the-doctor-does-not-approvePart | — Nutritional TherapiesNutri nal Therapies We decided to start this book by talking about Cancer Diets because they're so important. It’s unfortunate that the word “diet” has been so stigmatized in our westem culture. The word “diet” and “deprivation” are almost synonymous according to the way we normally think of the term But in reality, everyone is on a diet. Whatever foods you eat regularly constitute your diet sno secret that the average American diet is toxic. Fast food, preservatives, trans fats, monosodium glutamate (MSG), food coloring, and refined sugars all contribute to the toxicity in the average American’s diet. But beyond these food additives that undeniably make people sick, there are also plenty of vitamins and minerals that have been extracted ftom food supply in the United States. A lack of vitamins such as B15 and B17 has been shown to cause cancer. Indeed, vitamin B17 (also known as laetrile) is one of the most compelling “cancer cures” that every cancer patient should know about. Many experts believe that cancer is nothing but a vitamin B17 deficiency disease But while taking vitamin B17 may very well save your life if you're battling cancer or ifyou simply want to prevent it, it’s important to realize that there are other minerals like iodine thet have been systematically removed from the American diet beginning in the 1970's may also be life-saving and an essential part of a cancer protocol. Perhaps you eat your iodized table salt regularly and so you assume that all is well in terms of this vital mineral. But iodine vaporizes once that box of table salt is opened. And that’s not all. Bromine, another halogen gas thet sits right above iodine on the periodic table, is a common ingredient in pesticides that are sprayed all over our food supply. Bromine is in fire retardants that coat our furnishings. And bromine has also replaced chlorine in pools. Bromine, unfortunately, competes with iodine in our bodies. Ifa person doesn’t consume enough iodine to combat their constant exposure to bromine, deficiency results, lodine deficiency has been identified as strongly correlated with breast cancer, reproductive organ cancers, as well as other cancers. But just taking vitamin B17 (in the form of apricot kemels or as supplements) and iodine isn’t enough, Nutrition is a complicated science which is why it’s so easy for people to be fooled into thinking that their diet is nutritionally adequate when in reality, it’s far from it. There are anumber of Cancer Diets to choose from. The most unique are urine fasting and the kketogenic diet. Urine fasting is a diet that includes nothing but drinking one’s own urine. As such, itis the simplest and also one of the cheapest. The ketogenic diet stands out as remarkably different from the other diets. This diet excludes sugar, but embraces fats and proteins. The kketogenic diet would conflict with treatment protocols that work to raise pH @e. cesium therapy and sodium bicarbonate therapy) because proteins, particularly proteins from animal products, are extremely acidic While the Binzel Diet and the China Study diet aim to deprive cancer cells of food, other protocols like the Budwig Protocol are designed to detoxify the body and electrically recharge the healthy cells. The Binzel Diet emphasizes the use of vitamin B17 supplements while the China Study diet emphasizes the importance of avoiding animal products. Dr. Budwig, incontrast, dedicated her life to studying fats and oils and in her research discovered that trans fats and oils that are not cold-pressed and organic, cause cells to lose their vitality which leads to cancer and other degenerative diseases. Dr. Budwig’s Diet is unique in its focus on a particular subset of fats. Her thoughts and therapeutic guidelines regarding the consumption of fats are unmatched by the other cancer diets presented in this book. Many of her guidelines, but in particular the consumption of her “quark recipe” can be followed while also following the guidelines of another cancer diet. Indeed, the Bill Henderson Protocol, incorporates Budwig’s principles along with principles regarding the consumption of fruits and vegetables. The Gerson Diet is a well-known protocol that involves juicing, Like the Binzel Diet and the China Study diet it emphasizes the consumption of fruits and vegetables, but the Gerson Diet is different in that it emphasizes the consumption of raw fruits and vegetables mostly in the form of juice, Juicing makes the nutrients more bio-available and easier to absorb. The Gerson Diet is labor-intensive and very detailed, but it has been used to effectively cure a variety of diseases, including tuberculosis. ‘Also included in the first part of the book is a chapter on colonic irrigation. The logic behind this is that the colon is an integral part of the digestive system and enemas are an integral part of several nutritional protocols, particularly the Gerson Diet. Many people use enemas or colonic isrigation as part of a comprehensive Cancer ProtocolLow-Sugar/No Sugar Whole Food Diets Anumber of cancer diets emphasize the importance of eating alow-sugar/no sugar diet. While some diets allow the use of honey or maple syrup, all ofthe cancer diets in this book emphasize the importance of avoiding refined sugars. The reason why is simple: cancer cells eat sugar—lots of'it. Ifyou remove their primary food source, it becomes more difficult for cells to survive cer Removing sugar from the diet is one of the first things that every cancer patient should do, Sugar is insidious though, Patients must read food labels. This may sound like alot of work, but in reality, foods that contain more than 5 ingredients should generally be avoided anyway. One principle that’s easy to followis to shop around the outside of the grocery store. Linger in the produce section, Don’t eat canned foods. Buy only whole grains. Avoid “white” foods like white rice, white bread, white sugar. This is the advice given by the vast majority of cancer experts who devoted their lives to finding cures Dr. Philip Binzel’s book Alive and Well- One Doctor's Experience with Nutrition in the Treatment of Cancer Patients talks about how he struggled to leam about nutrition from Dr. Krebs (who taught himself about nutrition and the role of vitamin B17 in curing cancer). Doctors in the United States, as a rule are not educated on the topic of nutrition. Whatever education a doctor has on the topic of nutrition is likely to be the result of his or her own private studies. A number of very wealthy individuals profit immensely from doctors’ lack of knowledge about food. Doctors tend to prescribe drugs or schedule surgeries instead of giving patients advice about lifestyle changes that could promote lifelong healing because drugs and surgeries are more profitable to Big Pharma ‘We've organized this section into two sub-sections: diets that require patients to use supplements such as vitamins, minerals, or herbs and diets that don’t. From our research, it appears that both stances are valid, Some experts in cancer nutrition believe that it’s best for patients to get all of their nutrients from food because these nutrients are more bioavailable than nutrients from supplements. But while this makes sense, itis possible that the food currently available to most people in the United States and in other countries is seriously lacking in nutrients. In the U.S especially, food must travel along distance to arrive at its post of distribution. By this time, it may have endured cold, heat, and chemicals, and itis by no means fresh, All of these conditions diminish the nutrient content of the food. As such, supplements might be necessary or at least helpful in overcoming a disease like cancer. Ifyou decide to focus only on a diet that requires supplements, the authors would like to recommend that readers consider implementing Budwig’ s “quark” recipe alongside the anti-cancer diet they choose to follow. This recipe can be integrated into a variety of other diets and adjusted to leave out the cottage cheese in order to avoid animal products if necessary. Budwig was an expert on fats. Her special knowledge in this area helped her create this simple recipe that can be integrated into all of the other diets. Budwig’s recipe can literally help healthy cells breathe again and become more energized.Cancer Diets That Require Supplements The diets in this section are similar except in terms of the supplements they require. Most of these diets emphasize the use of whole foods, the consumption of plants, the avoidance of animal products, and the strict avoidance of refined sugars Of all of the diets that require supplementation, the least developed scientifically is the Bill Henderson Protocol. Bill Henderson researched cancer independently to find a cure after his wife died of cancer. While his diet is not as developed scientifically, itis easy for patients to follow. Binzel, Gerson, and Gonzalez were all doctors who saw their diets in action as they treated patients. Through experience they were able to hone the details of how cancer patients should be nourished That being said, while the Bill Henderson diet is the least developed, itis also one of the more accessible cancer diets. It is easy to understand how to do the diet, which has made it popular, but it isn’t necessarily the most powerful diet to use for cancer treatment. Stage III and Stage IV patients should not rely on the Bill Henderson diet, ‘The Gerson Diet and the Gonzalez Protocol are definitely the most complicated diets in the book, Gerson believed that patients should consume their food in the form of juices. He believed that all salt should be avoided. Gonzalez, in contrast, built his nutritional theories off of Dr. Kelley's Pancreatic Cure, These diets are complicated and patients may need to enlist the help of an expert to execute them properly. With expert help and effort these diets can yield excellent results for cancer patientsGonzalez Protocol: Supplement-Focused, Customized Diet Quick Summary ‘The Gonzalez Protocol is a cancer diet that requires studious effort to fully understand and implement at home without guidance. Patients eat a very specific diet tailored to their metabolic type. Many patients who use this protocol take over 100 vitamin and mineral supplements per day to correct deficiencies and restore overall health. It’s best to contact an expert in the Gonzalez Protocol for help in determining your metabolic type and supplementation schedule ‘After consultation with a practitioner skilled at using the Gonzalez Protocol, patients can adhere to the diet at home along with the supplementation schedule by following the protocol designed by the health practitioner . FS 8 °@ Detailed Introduction ‘The Gonzalez Protocol is a combination diet and supplementation cancer treatment that works specifically with pancreatic cancer. In addition to diet and supplementation, the protocol uses other treatments such as enemas, skin brushing, and baking soda baths to treat cancer. The regimen has also been used for the treatment of cancers other than pancreatic cancer in addition to other diseases such as chronic fatigue syndrome and multiple sclerosis [1] Dr. Nicholas Gonzalez became interested in the use of pancreatic enzymes as a treatment for cancer when he met Dr. William Kelley. Kelley was a dentist who encouraged the use of pancreatic enzymes in the treatment of cancer [5]. During his post-graduate fellowship under Dr. Good (known as the “father of modern immunology”) Gonzalez was encouraged to research Dr Kelley’s treatment of cancer to discover it if was truly effective, and if so, how it worked. This study is documented in Dr. Gonzalez’s book “One Man Alone” in which he describes the case studies of Dr. Kelley’s Stage IV cancer patients who were cured of cancer [10] ‘The Gonzalez Protocol follows alarge number of Dr. Kelley’s guidelines for the treatment of cancer, and because of this at first glance it may appear to be practically the same treatment strategy. While the Gonzalez Protocol does use Dr. Kelley’s ideas regarding pancreatic enzymes in the treatment of cancer, Gonzalez also encourages the use of a variety of other treatments, such as baking soda to treat cancer in a holistic, multifaceted way. For this reason, individualscan follow the Gonzalez Protocol as a stand-alone treatment for cancer, since the protocol itself incorporates several powerful treatments into one comprehensive therapy. Politics ‘The Gonzalez Protocol may also be referred to as an “enzyme cancer protocol.” Dr. Gonzalez has written an entire book on exactly what happened in the clinical trial done on enzymes in the treatment of cancer, for those who are interested, the book is called What Went Wrong The Truth Behind the Clinical Trial of the Enzyme Treatment of Cancer: The book provides details regarding the names of the individuals involved, the emails exchanged, and the details of the “study” that ended up yielding inaccurate data as a result of poor design, improper screening methods for participants in the study (along with involving some patients and individuals without informed consent), and numerous avoidable delays to get the study off the ground [2] The results of this skewed study into the use of enzymes in the treatment of cancer showed that, the treatment was completely ineffective for cancer patients, which was contrary to the results that Dr. Gonzalez had personally observed in his own patients when using the protocol [2]. Dr. Gonzalez was successful at treating patients with his protocol, He has two books (Volumes 1 and 2 of Conquering Cancer) that have a total of 112 individual case studies of patients who recovered from bladder cancer prostate cancer various other types of cancer [9] Dr. Reza Ghaffurian has provided an excellent summary of Dr. Gonzalez’s research under Dr Robert A. Good, about how politics and economics affected the trajectory of the information he uncovered. Dr. Good was the President of the Memonal Sloan-Kettering Centerin New York: “Under Dr. Good's direction, Goncale: investigated Kelley's work during his third and JPourth year medical studies. He reviewed almost 10,000 of Kelley's patient records and interviewed over 500 patients who had been diagnosed with advanced cancer and treated by Kelley. This research allowed Goncale: to organize Dr. Kelley's findings in an organized manner and pursue this research further for his fellowship training The object of the study was to prove Dr. Kelley's method worked. It took Dr. Goncalec ‘five years to complete the study, which resulted in a 301-page report that states that the cure rate was 100% for pancreatic cancer and 97% for all other cancers. The report was suppressed In 1986, due to unrelenting pressure from discreditors, Dr. Kelley gave up research and patient care and passed away in January 2005" [11] Safety and Effectiveness‘The Gonzalez Protocol has had particular success with treating pancreatic cancer, but it has also had significant success in treating a variety of other cancer types. Case studies can be found both in Dr. Gonzalez’s two-book series titled “Conquering Cancer” and also at the Nicholas Gonzalez Foundation website under “Case Reports” at the following link: http://www.dr-gonzalez.com/case reports.htm In Dr. Gonzalez’s book “Conquering Cancer (Volume One)” he describes a study done on mice using his dietary and supplementation protocols. In the first experiment in the study, mice that had been given human pancreatic cancer cells were divided into two groups: the first group received enzymes while the second received no treatment for the cancer. The first group (the one that received enzymes) survived much longer than the mice that had not received treatment, and additionally appeared to be healthy and happy. Meanwhile, the second group of mice was unenthusiastic, lethargic, bloated, and visibly sick. ‘The second experiment in the study followed the same methods as the first, but this time some mice were sacrificed at different times so that tumor growth could be assessed. In the mice that received enzymes, the tumors remained small and localized. In the mice that didn’t receive any treatment, the tumors were significantly larger and more likely to spread [4] Side Effects ‘The side effects of the Gonzalez Protocol include those associated with the Herzheimer Reaction, which is where individuals feel worse before they feel better. Side effects associated with this Hencheimer Reaction include Gas and bloating, various other problems with digestion Fiu-like symptoms, including alow-grade fever Muscle aches Skin Rashes [7] Because the Gonzalez Protocol uses tools like diet and supplementation to realign the body and retum it to anormal state, it’s common for patients on the Protocol to have a Herheimer Reaction (also known as a‘“detox reaction”) that produces these kinds of symptoms. Swelling is areaction that the body exhibits when healing is taking place and the immune system is working to repair damage (think of what happens when you sprain your wrist or ankle, the joint swells up and even bruises while the healing takes place, then once the area is healed the swelling goes away). Flu-like symptoms during a detox may take place to cleanse the body of toxins. Vomiting and diarthea happen when the body is purging toxins. Fever causes heat in the body and, in some cases, heat (intemal or external) at high enough temperatures for long enough periods of ime lalls cancer cells. A fevers also a sign that the immune system is functioning properly. The section on hyperthermia in the third volume of this catalog explains these concepts in more detailHow the Gonzalez Protocol Is Administered ‘The treatment protocol for each patient is unique depending on his or her individual illness, the severity of the iliness, the patient's metabolic type and other factors. Thus, the dietary guidelines and types of supplements vary from patient to patient. However, despite this variation, patients” individualized protocols share a few things in common, such as that they all require that patients eat organic foods, drink fresh vegetable juices, and avoid the consumption of refined and processed foods like white sugar. Among the supplements given to patients, pancreatic enzymes are almost always included. In addition to the diet and supplements, many patients do coffee enemas two times per day to help with detoxification. ‘The supplements included in the Gonzalez Protocol include vitamins, minerals, trace elements, antioxidants, animal glandular concentrates, and other food concentrates. Cancer patients may take between 130-175 capsules/pills each day, while non-cancer patients take between 80-100 capsules/pills daily. Because enzymes are almost always included (specifically pancreatic enzymes in the treatment of pancreatic cancer), the treatment protocol is technically an enzyme cancer treatment [1] One source states that the Gonzalez Protocol generally includes the following supplements © Pancreatic enzymes (orally) — every 4 hours + at each meal on days 1-16, then the patient will have 5 days of rest from this supplement © Papaya Plus and Magnesium Citrate~ the same schedule as the pancreatic enzymes © Other supplements (vitamins, minerals, trace elements, animal glandular products, etc.) — 4 times daily on days 1-16, followed by 5 days of rest [6] ‘The supplementation schedule follows a 21-day cycle of 16 days “on” and 5 days “off” Patients repeat this cycle for the rest of their lives. In addition to supplementation, patients eat a “vegetarian metabolizer” diet. This diet eliminates meat products and refined foods such as white sugar and packaged processed foods. Patients also perform coffee enemas twice daily, skin brushing daily, skin cleansing weekly for the first 6 months of the treatments, and weekly salt and baking soda baths. During treatment, patients perform a liver cleanse, clean sweep, and purge on rotation during one of their 5-day rest periods each month [6] The diets in the Gonzalez Protocol are based off of each individual’s metabolic type. The National Cancer Institute says that patients are categorized into three metabolic types a to the nutrients their body needs the most (proteins, carbohydrates, or mixed), while Dr. Gonzalez’s book Nutrition and the Autonomic Nervous System describes 10 metabolic types previously laid out by Dr. Kelley [7] [8] ording Role of the Autonomic Nervous System in Determining Metabolic Types‘The sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems (the two parts of the autonomic nervous system) and their individual efficiency in different people is what the different metabolic types and their respective diet/supplementation regimens are based on, The sympathetic nervous system works with the “fight or fight” response and is capable of performing tasks such as increasing heart rate, releasing adrenaline, and contracting muscles along with taking responsibility for shutting down or lowering priority on those functions not directly responsible for survival of the individual. The parasympathetic system performs tasks that may be seen as the opposite of those done by the sympathetic nervous system, the response done by this system may be called the “relaxation response” or the “freeze and submission response,” since this system is most active during sleep and works to perform tasks such as reducing pulse and blood pressure, controlling repairs in the body, and stimulating the digestive system [8] Dr. Kelley found that some people have stronger parasympathetic or sympathetic nervous systems, and thus possess particular personality traits, illnesses, and issues regarding the management of their health. Some people have relatively balanced functioning of these two systems [8]. Below are the 10 metabolic types outlined by Dr. Kelley (more about the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems is discussed below) Extreme sympathetic-dominant © 100% sympathetic efficiency, 20% parasympathetic efficiency ©. The diet for this metabolic type is araw food, vegetarian diet, 80% of the food should be raw or only lightly steamed. Dark leafy greens are particularly beneficial to this type. Unlimited fruit is allowed, with at least 2-3 servings per day encouraged. Citrus fruits are especially good. Whole grains are allowed, as are beans and nuts. Dr. Kelley believed that raw sprouted beans had increased nutrient and enzyme content, Almonds were thought to have a specific anticancer effect (see the Laetrile treatment for cancer). One egg and one serving of fresh yogurt was allowed. © Fish, poultry, and other meats are prohibited for this metabolic type ©. This type needs the following supplements: beta-carotene, vitamin Bl, vitamin B2, vitamin B3, vitamin BG, high doses of vitamin C and vitamin D, moderate dose of vitamin E, magnesium, potassium, chromium, para-aminobenzoic acid. Extreme parasympathetic-dominant © 20% sympathetic efficiency, 100% parasympathetic efficiency ©. Dr Kelley recommends this type has significantly more fat and meats than the other metabolic types. Daily, 3 servings of lightly cooked fatty red meat are recommended, organ meats (liver, kidney, etc.) and meaty soups and stews are beneficial.© 3-4 daily servings of vegetables are encouraged daily, with root vegetables (carrots, potatoes, sweet potatoes, turnips, yams, etc ) being particularly good. Squash and cruciferous vegetables are good as well, however this type is said to not tolerate leafy greens well ©. Fruitis not allowed for this type (especially not citrus), except for occasional bemies, pears, and apples. Grains, nuts, seeds, and beans are allowed in small quantities ©. This type needs the following supplements: moderate doses of vitamin A, niacinamide, vitamin BS, vitamin B12, choline, inositol, high doses of vitamin C, zinc, high doses of selenium, chromium, and amoderate dose of manganese. Very inefficient balanced © 10-20% parasympathetic efficiency and sympathetic efficiency ©. This type has a varied diet with both plants and meats. All food (except juices) must be well cooked becanse this metabolic type doesn’t tolerate raw foods very well. 3-4 servings of vegetables per day is recommended, and all fruit is allowed as long as itis cooked in some way (compotes, stewed fruit dishes, pies, etc.) or juiced. © Nut and seed butters are better for this type than whole nuts and seeds. Grains, cereals, and brown rice are unlimited, as is whole, natural cheese and yogurt. This type may eat eggs daily. Fish, poultry, and red meat may be consumed in several servings each per week © Requires the same supplements as types 8 and 10, except the dosages should be doubled Moderate sympathetic-dominant © 70% sympathetic efficiency, 30% parasympathetic efficiency © Individuals with this metabolic type may consume unlimited vegetables, fruits, seeds, and whole grains. 60% of the food should be eaten raw. Fish and poultry can be eaten several times per week, but servings of red meat should be limited to no more than once a week. Eggs and dairy products may be eaten daily © This requires the same supplements as Type 1, except in more moderate doses. Moderate parasympathetic-dominant © 30% sympathetic efficiency, 70% parasympathetic efficiency©. This metabolic type requires 1-2 servings of fatty red meats per day. Organ meats are also consumed, although in lower quantities than extreme parasympathetic-dominant types. Vegetables are more varied and allowed in higher quantities, cruciferous and root vegetables are recommended, but leafy greens are forbidden. 1 serving of fruit per day is encouraged, but no citrus fruits are allowed. ©. This type requires the same supplements as Type 2 but in more moderate doses. Inefficient sympathetic-dominant © 30-40% sympathetic effi cy, 20-30% parasympathetic efficiency ©. This type requires a primarily plant-based diet, unlimited fruits and vegetables are allowed, but all foods in the diet need to be either cooked or made into a juice. Nut and seed butters, whole-grain bread and cereal, and browm rice are recommended © A moderate amount of animal proteins (eggs, whole-milk organic dairy products) are allowed, Several servings of fish and poultry are allowed each week, but red meat is allowed only occasionally. Frequent soups and stews are beneficial to this metabolic type Inefficient parasympathetic-dominant Type 6 requires the same supplements as Type 4, except it adds choline, inositol, calcium, =inc vitamin BS, and vitamin B12. © 20-30% sympathetic effic cy, 30-40% parasympathetic efficiency © These individuals do well with 1-2 servings of red meat per day. Heavy stews and soups are beneficial, as are root vegetables, cruciferous vegetables, and squashes. Leafy greens aren't allowed, Fruit is allowed in one serving per day, and is preferably cooked, no citrus fruits are allowed. Cooked beans and grains are permitted ©. This uses the same supplements as Type 5 in addition to beta-carotene, thiamine, riboflavin, niacin, pyridoxine, folic acid, magnesium, and potassium. Moderately efficient balanced © 80% sympathetic efficiency and parasympathetic efficiency ©. This type eats a variety of foods, all fruits and vegetables are allowed, along with nuts, seeds, and whole grains. One daily serving of eggs and dairy products each is acceptable. Several weekly servings of fish, poultry, and red meat is allowed. © 50-60% of food should be raw while 40-50% can be cooked.¢ This uses the same supplements as Type 10 Moderately inefficient balanced + 50% sympathetic efficiency and parasympathetic efficiency © The same food principles regarding food variety apply to this metabolic type’s diet as well. The only difference is that 60-80% of the food consumed should be consumed © Type 9 uses the same supplementation as Types 8 and 10, except it requires higher doses Very efficient balanced 1. 100% sympathetic efficiency and parasympathetic efficiency. This is the rarest metabolictype, and Dr. Kelley thought that 3% or less of the US population had this metabolictype. 2. Again, like with the other two balanced metabolic types, this type requires a varied diet with foods from all categories. Dr. Kelley recommended that patients with this type eat mostly raw food and small meals. 3. People with this metabolictype are noted for their ability to be able to extract the maximum nutritional benefit from even minimal amounts of food. 4, This type requires the “full range” of supplements and minerals in lowto moderate doses. Individuals whose sympathetic nervous system is dominant tend to be more high-strung and aggressive than those whose parasympathetic nervous system is dominant. These individuals may struggle emotionally with the Gonzalez Protocol because the supplements and diets that these people take/follow are designed to support the parasympathetic nervous system's functioning and bring the functioning of the sympathetic nervous system down to amore normal, balanced level. The goal is to balance the two systems’ functioning, But, people who are sympathetic-dominant often feel more relaxed when following the protocol and may interpret this relaxation as being “tired” in the early stages of treatment. Despite that their protocol may have already reduced the size of the tumor or changed some other aspect of their health, some people may feel compelled to change things about their protocol to bring their energy back up to what they consider normal. However, this is generally counterproductive, when these people male changes to bring their energy back up they'll encounter the same metabolic imbalance that caused their cancer in the first place and the cancer may start growing again [8] Francis Pottenger Sr. was a physician in the late 19+ and early 20+ centuries who discovered that the nutrients calcium, potassium, and magnesium played a role in the functioning of thesympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems. He found that sympathetic-dominent patients thrived when given magnesium and potassium because the magnesium worked to block the over-strong sympathetic nerves while the potassium strengthened the parasympathetic nerves. In contrast, parasympathetic-dominant patients did well when given large doses of calcium, the calcium stimulated the sympathetic nerves, thus helping obtain equilibrium between the two systems [8]. This research plays arole in determining which supplements are prescribed to patients who are following the Gonzalez Protocol Other Important Information Although not directly relevant to the specific physical treatment protocols that he followed, Dr. Gonzalez viewed the patient's belief system and their personal beliefiin the treatment they receive to be an important aspect of their recovery. The incorporation of spiritual practices into the treatment protocol is recommended [6] Many people meditate to calm their minds or to obtain insight, and it’s becoming amore common practice for cancer patients to participate in energy medicine and/or private meditation routines to reconnect with themselves and with their religion and spirituality. Interestingly, Dr Kelley noted that people who were sympathetic-dominant responded particularly well to meditation because it activated the parasympathetic nervous system and helped bring balance to the two systems. However, meditation wasn’t as effective for individuals who were parasympathetic-dominant. Dr. Kelley recommended more active “meditations” or relaxation methods for these patients, such as watching action movies, to increase the functioning of their sympathetic nervous systems [8] Dr. Linda Isaacs — New York, NY Dr. Linda Issacs is one of the few people who offers treatment following the Gonzalez Protocol Her clinic is located at the following address 36 East 36"Street Suite 1A, ‘New York, NY. 10016 212-213-3337 Cost Two initial consultation and evaluation sessions are required for Dr. Isaacs to design a protocol to the patient's needs.

Patients also take a variety of supplements and flush the digestive system with coffee enemas on a prescribed basis. The Gerson protocol is difficult (but not impossible) to implement solo. Juices must be produced throughout the day because they must be made fresh. As such, it can be helpful to have someone help you implement this protocol. There are Gerson Clinics in both Mexico and Hungary and clinics throughout the United States that offer modified versions of the diet. Modifications are justified because the latest nutrition research has demonstrated that certain aspects of the classic Gerson diet could benefit from modifications to achieve better cure rates Detailed Introduction ‘The Gerson diet is a well-known cancer diet that helps improve the health of patients while simultaneously targeting the root cause of the cancer to kill cancer cells and stop their growth, Dr. Max Gerson developed this treatment based off of his observations on how diet affected cancer cell growth and death. The basic concept is that cancer is caused by toxicities and nutritional deficiencies in the body, and that eating a diet of fresh and organic foods in combination with juicing, natural supplements, and the use of coffee enemas can cure cancer. Many diseases are caused by toxicity and nutritional deficiency, and thus the Gerson Diet has worked to cure diabetes, heart disease, arthritis, and other common ailments in addition to cancer io] Initially developed in the early 20th century as a cure for Dr. Gerson’s own severe migraine headaches, the Gerson Diet was used successfully to treat a bile duct cancer patient in 1928, Dr Gerson then treated 12 more patients (7 successfully) shortly afterward. Dr. Gerson treated individuals with various types of tuberculosis, asthma, allergies, and diseases of the digestive system, and liver [8] Politi The complete Gerson Therapy is illegal to administer in the United States. Some treatment centers offer a variation on the Gerson Diet, but they're not permitted to call the treatment “The Gerson Therapy/Diet.” The Gerson Protocol has not been approved by the FDA. The GersonInstitute's Mexico location is in Tijuana, close to the Mexico-US border, making it possible for ss the treatment center. There is also a Gerson Treatment Center in Hungary [2][6]. ‘The Gerson Therapy has been referred to as an “unproven,” treatment [7]. Though the Gerson Protocol hasn’t been studied extensively, many patients have been healed by it nonetheless. ‘There are anumber of anecdotal reports describing excellent results using the Gerson Protocol [3] A large patt of the reason why the Gerson Diet has been ridiculed in the modem medical world has to do with the low priority that is placed on nutrition by medical schools and establishments. Early in the 20 century, the Rockefeller and Camegie families offered the top medical schools in the United States grants so long as they agreed to only teach an allopathic medicine-based curriculum with little to no discussion of subjects like healing plants and nutrition. Today, although doctors do sometimes encourage patients to eat healthy, very few doctors receive even the minimum of 25 hours of nutritional training during their schooling. For example, cardiology doctors aren’t required to take any classes in nutrition counseling. Additionally, on the board examination requirements for the intemal medicine certification, the word “nutrition” does not appear anywhere, [3] Because of this minimal education in nutrition, doctors today who tell their patients that the Gerson Diet isn’t an effective cancer treatment or who claim that diet and detox isn’t effective in fighting cancer are often making an uneducated statement. However, even without the lack of nutritional education in medical schools, Big Pharma has taken active steps toward suppressing instruction of altemative therapies (like the healing power of plants) in schools. This lack of education in medical schools has made it very difficult for patients to get the information they need to heal themselves by making diet and lifestyle adjustments [8] Safety and Effectiveness The Gerson Institute website recommends that patients work under the supervision of a Certified Gerson Practitioner to ensure maximum effectiveness and safety (visit the Gerson Institute website to find a practitioner). Some individuals or people with particular ailments may require modifications to the standard Gerson protocol, and thus they may need a professionel working with them. The following cancer-relevant situations require certain modifications to the standard protocol [4] © Acute Leukemia This is a fast moving cancer that negatively affects the immune system Because the Gerson Diet requires a longer time period to work and depends on the immune system's ability to function, the standard Gerson protocol doesn’t work for this cancer and requires modification © Use of Prescription Medications: The Gerson Diet may interfere with the functioning of ‘ions or with how the body responds to them. In this case, a practitioner willlook at the patient’s medications to determine which medications the diet may interfere with and how to modify it to work for the patient’s situation [4] Cancers That Don’t Respond to the Gerson Diet ‘The following cancers don’t respond well to the Gerson Diet: © Brain Tumors or Metastasis to the Brain: The Gerson Diet causes healing inflammation and swelling at the site of the tumor. This swelling indicates that the immune system is working as it should be. However, swelling in the brain or in the skull can cause seizures, blackouts, and other serious effects. The Gerson Diet should only be carefidy used in these cases, and always under the observation of Gerson practitioner. The nutritional guidelines may help the patient manage their cancer, but it’s not expected that the reduced protocol will cure the cancer [4] © Multiple Myeloma: The Gerson Diet has not been effective against this type of cancer, multiple myeloma patients often experience initial benefit from the treatment, but the benefits aren’t sustained. The Gerson Institute recommends thet patients with this cancer wit want to use the Gerson Diet work with a practitioner ‘who will help them incorporate other beneficial altemative therapies in addition to certain conventional medications (like bisphosphonates) to slow the breakdown of bone tissue [4] © Pancreatic Cancer After Chemotherapy: Damage to the pancreas causes decreased digestive function, thus reducing the effectiveness of the Gerson Diet and its food-based treatment, In some cases, it may be possible for these patients to work with a reduced/modified version of the Gerson Diet, but they should always work with a practitioner to ensure safety. The effectiveness of the treatment with chemotherapy-treated pancreatic cancer may be low [4] Three Basic Principles of the Gerson Diet ding to Dr. Gerson, the Gerson Diet is based on 3 principles ponents: 1, Toxin elimination and the return of the sodium-group to those areas where it is supposed to be, and away from those where it doesn’t belong, 2. Returning the “lost” potassium-group (along with vitamins, enzymes, ferments, sugars, etc.) back to where it belongs. This principle sees that through this process iodine is made effective again and may be absorbed by the body again. 3. Restoring differentiation, tonus, tension, oxidation, and other regular body functions through the use of activated iodine. Tumors and their metastases disrupt these functionsand thus struggle to survive in an environment where proper functioning is effectively supported [8] Because these principles apply in a variety of situations with a variety of diseases, Dr. Gerson was able to treat patients not only with cancer, but also with other severe diseases such as tuberculosis [8] How the Gerson Protocol Is Administered ‘The Gerson Dietis a complex strategy that requires that patients leave out certain foods from their diet while eating more of other foods. At its core, the foods in the Gerson Diet consist primarily of fresh fruits and vegetables, which are prepared most frequently in soups, salads, and juices (although other recipes can be made as well). The diet is non-toxic, and oxygen, enzyme, and antioxidant rich. Itis also an alkaline, diet that’s high in potassium, low in sodium, and filled with vitamins and minerals [5] Basic Guidelines Some of the guidelines that patients follow on the Gerson Diet are outlined below. 1, Patients with collagen-related diseases may not consume citrus fruits or juices on the Gerson Diet, but other patients are allowed to have one citrus juice per day 2. Sweeteners are kept to aminimum, honey, blackstrap molasses, and maple syrup may be used, but only in small quantities (up to 2 tsp/day) 3. Grains are limited as well, 1-2 slices of rye bread are allowed each day, and quinoa can be eaten once a week. 4, Salt/sodium-sich foods, most fats, fragrant spices (pepper, paprika, oregano, etc.), nuts and seeds, meat, and soy are among the foods that are prohibited during the Gerson Diet treatment 5. No processed/manufactured foods are allowed. 6. Meats and animal products are prohibited. Dairy is allowed only in the form of plain, organic, non-fat yogurt after 6-8 weeks of the treatment. Liver is consumed. 7. Aromatic foods like spicy peppers, pineapples, and berries are prohibited [3] Consult the following link for more information about the specifics of the Gerson Diet: https://gerson.org/pdfs/Foods-For-The-Gerson-Dietpdf [3]. JuicesPatients who are following the Gerson Protocol drink 13 juices each day, which are divided into jegories: the carrat-apple juice and the green juice. In the moming, patients may drink an orangelcitrus juice as their breakfast. Patients do not drink water during the treatment. Rather, they consume only juice to fulfil their liquid needs (some decaffeinated teas may be allowed as well).

Itis vital that detoxification unhindered by problems like constipation while cancer patients are killing can coffee in coffee enemas is absorbed into the bloodstream and it travels directly to the liver to detoxify the patient [9] Gerson Diet Goals ‘The Gerson Diet aims to alkalinize the body. Cancer cells thrive in an acidic environment, and when the body is made alkaline these toxic cells are unable to survive. Additionally, alkalinity in the body reawakens and reactivates pancreatic enzymes and allows red blood cells to continuefunctioning properly. The immune system functions less efficiently in an acidic environment, so the alkalizing Gerson Diet strengthens the immune system as well [8]. A variety of other pH cancer therapies also aim to alkalinize the body using other, non-dietary methods More information about the Gerson Diet can be found at the Gerson Institute website: https://gerson.org/gerpress/ Other Important Information There are two official Gerson clinics that offer patients the Gerson treatment, one is located in ‘Tijuana, Mexico and the other is in Budapest, Hungary. In Tijuana, the cost is $6000 for 1 week with a 2-week minimum stay. In Budapest the treatment costs around $8000 (plus 27% tax) for two weeks, with an additional $1000 for one companion. In Budapest, the companion is taught about the Gerson therapy so that after the two-week session is aver they can continue to support and treat the patient at home using the same guidelines.

Then, patients must stay on the diet to avoid getting the cancer back. One of the most important nutrients that Dr. Binzel focused on was vitamin B17, also known as laetrile or amygdalin Research has shown that vitamin B17 deficiency plays an important, if not primary role in the development of cancer. Correcting the deficiency through diet combined wath intravenous vitamin B17 treatments has caused many patients to go into remission. The Binzel Diet has a success rate of §3.3-87.3% for primary, non-metastastic cancers. For metastatic cancers, ithas a success rate of 62.1-70.4%. Detailed Introduction ‘The Binzel Diet focuses on nutrition and the use of lactrle (also known as vitamin B17) to cure cancer. Dr. Binzel believed that cancer could never be fully cured, but that patients could lead a normal, healthy life after being diagnosed with it as long as they treated themselves properly [1] Despite the simplicity of Dr. Binzel’s views and the compelling research and amazing success that he has to back up his claims, the Binzel Diet and specifically the use of laetrile/vitamin B17 is one of the most controversial cancer cures currently known, The controversy has nothing to do with the science that supports the use of vitamin B17 to cure cancer. Rather, it has everything to do wath politics and economics Politics ‘What follows is the preface to the book Alive and IWell_ One Doctor's Experience With Nutrition in the Treatment of Cancer Patients by Dr. Philip Binzel. Dr. Binzel mentions G. Edward Griffin, author of World Vithout Cancer as the person who encouraged him to write the book [2][3]. The preface, without offering specific details, suggests a familiar tale about how this successful cancer treatment has been vilified by the U.S. government for capitalistic reasons “Rirst of all, please understand that all that follows is absolutely and completely the fault ofMr. G Edward Griffin “Those of us who have fought for so long to preserve the God-given rights guaranteed usby our Constitution have, for the most part, fought a losing battle. Big Government, with its hordes of bureaucrats, has beaten the "little man" into submission. He must comply with all ofits regulations of his business and his life, or else! Usually, if he fights Big Government, he loses. “In my attempts to use nutritional therapy, which includes the use of Laetrile, in the treatment of cancer. Ihave often been confronted by the Food and Drug Administration and by the State Medical Board Ihave fought and. through the grace of God. I have won, For several years Ed Griffin has been after me to write a book As he put it, "We have won some victories and the people should know about them." So, this book is being ‘written to tell about these victories (and to get Bd offofmy back). Ifyou don' like the book or any parts of the book don't blame me. Blame Ed Griffin. He made me do it! “The facts in this book are true. The names are real (except where I say they are not) The dates may not be completely accurate, but they are as close as Ican remember. Safety and Effectiveness The Binzel Diet has a success rate of 83.3-87.3% for primary, non-metastastic cancer. For metastatic cancer it has a success rate of 62.1-70.4% [2] How the Binzel Diet Is Administered This “diet” is actually a cancer protocol that involves diet, supplements with vitamins, minerals, and enzymes along with intravenous vitamin B17 injections. Binzel Diet Basics Dr. Binzel, along with a variety of other experts (Drs. Krebs, Burk, Nieper, Contreras, Navarro, and Sakai) all believed that in order to cure cancer, the patient’s nutritional deficiencies must all be corrected. Unless all of the nutritional deficiencies are corrected, itis difficult to help the patient. And while the Binzel Diet is described below in basic terms, each patient is different and the diet may need to be modified, ideally by a practitioner who is knowledgeable about effective cancer diets in order for it to be maximally effective [7] ‘The Binzel Diet aims to: 1) Replenish whet’s lacking from the patient's diet. 2) Remove what’s harmful from the patient’s diet [2] The three essential parts of the program includeVitamins, Minerals, and Enzymes © Nitrilosides (eg amygdalin/actrile/vitamin B17) © Diet [2] Vitamins, Minerals, and Enzymes Taken by Mouth The following vitamin supplements should be taken with meals or right after meals (except for the vitamin B17 supplements). Do not take them on an empty stomach: 1. Multiple vitamin - 1 twice daily 2. Vitamin C, 1,000 mg — 1 twice daily (after starting laetrile treatment, increase by 1,000 mg every 3* day up to 6,000 mg) 3. Vitamin E- 400 units — 1 twice daily 4, Megazyme Forte (trypsin, chymotrypsin, bromelain, and zinc) — 1 two to three times daily 5. Vitamin B15/Pangamic Acid, 100 mg —1 three times daily 6. Pro-A-Mulsion-25,000 I.U. Vitamin A per drop —5 drops per day (except on days when the patient is given intravenous laetrile 7. Vitamin B17 —two 500 mg tablets taken on the day when intravenous laetrile is NOT administered. The tablets should be taken on an empty stomach with water [2] Dr. Binzel always started patients on the above vitamin/mineral/enzyme therapy first before starting intravenous laetrile therapy Intravenous Nitrilosides — Vitamin B17 In addition to oral administration of vitamin B17, Dr. Binzel also administered laetil intravenously at 10cc-3gms. three times weekly with at least one day between injections. The laetrile is not diluted and can be given by straight IV. push over a period of | to 2 minutes depending on the amount given LV. Laetrile Dosage: 1* Dose — 1 vial (10cc-3gms) 2 Dose — 2 vials (20cc-6gms.) 34 Dose — 2 vials (20cc-6gms.) 4%_ 9® Dose — 3 vials (30cc-9gms.) ‘After these first three weeks of IV. injections, the patient receives an injection of 1 vial (10cc-3gms.) once a week for 3 months. Ifthe patient notices a negative change in how he feels after the injections are reduced to one per week, the injections are increased to two to three times a week: for three weeks. Then, the dosage is again reduced to once a week. This process is repeated until the patient feels no significant difference with the maintenance (once weekly) dase 2]Diet Dr. Binzel’s diet can be summarized as follows in terms of animal products “Ifit’s animal or ifit comes from animal, don’t eat it. fit is not animal and it does not come from animal, you can have it, but you can’t cook it.” ‘These dietary rules are similar (though not identical) to those developed by Dr. Campbell following the completion of The China Study, the most comprehensive nutritional study ever performed. However, while The China Study arrived at the conclusion that animal protein contributes to the development of cancer by doing population studies and studies on rodents, Dr. Binzel cites the logic that cancer has a protein covering that protects it from the immune system as a compelling reason to avoid animal products [4]. This protein lining that covers cancerous tumors has a negative electrostatic charge. White blood cells also have a negative electrostatic charge. So the protein lining is able to repel white blood cells and the body's immune defense. Enzymes secreted by the pancreas (trypsin and chymotrypsin) can dissolve this protein lining, but unfortunately, large quantities of trypsin and chymotrypsin are required to digest animal proteins. So when a person eats large quantities of animal proteins (dairy products, meats, eggs, etc), this leaves very little or no pancreatic enzymes that can be used in the rest of the body to combat things like cancer [2]. According to research conducted for The China Study, a diet that contains 5% or less animal products can literally “tun cancer off” while a diet of more than 5% of animal products can “turn cancer on” [4] Fresh fruits and vegetables contain some of the enzymes necessary to kill cancer. But unfortunately, any temperature over 130 degrees will destroy the enzymes. Thats why fruits and vegetables need to be eaten raw and fresh (not frozen) or only lightly “cooked”. The Binzel Diet encourages the consumption of a wide variety of fruits and vegetables, with limitations only on citrus fruits and tomatoes. Citrus and tomatoes should make up less than 10% of the fruit intake ‘And patients should eat the seeds of every fruit they consume except citrus fruits. The diet should include about 60% vegetables and 40% fruits [2] Dr. Binzel also prohibits refined sugars and requires his patients to use sea salt instead of refined salt. Instead of white, refined suger, patients can eat © Honey © Maple syrup © Molasses [2] Protein in the Binzel Diet comes from the following ‘Whole grains Com Buckwheat Nuts (except for roasted peanuts because of an acid formed when they’re roasted) Dried fruits© Beans ‘No caffeine is permitted. ‘The patient must follow Dr. Binzel’s raw food diet for a minimum of four months [2] Other Important Information Vitamin B17 Sources — Apricot Kernels ‘Though companies that offer apricot kemels cannot make any medical claims on their web sites, it is possible to order apricot kemels for at-home consumption. Apricot kemels should be organic, bitter, and raw.

This protocol is not recommended as a stand-alone treatment and it is not the best cancer diet for patients with aggressive or late-stage cancers. One of the virtues of the Bill Henderson Protocol is that it is relatively straightforward and easy for patients to understand and therefore to follow. For newly diagnosed patients who can’t afford to consult with a professional about their cancer diet, the Bill Henderson protocol can be helpful, though most experts would recommend incorporating other cancer treatments (e.g. pH therapies, vibrational therapies, immunotherapies) into it to make a more comprehensive protocol, Cancer patients who are getting conventional treatments (chemo, radiation, and/or surgery) and whose doctors don’t see the value of following a cancer diet could benefit from following this protocol as opposed to not following a cancer diet at all. Cancer patients can gather the supplies they need and implement the Bill Henderson protocol at home without consulting with a practitioner. Detailed Introduction Bill Henderson is an entrepreneur who collects and disseminates information about altemative cancer cures. After his wife died from a grueling four-year battle with ovarian cancer, he went on sade for cancer information and a cure, He developed and began distributing the Bill Henderson protocol in 2004. This protocol is not appropriate for fast-spreading cancers, cancers that are particularly dangerous (e.g. pancreatic cancer) or cancers that have metastasized, The Bill Henderson protocol would be most valuable for patients whose cancers are at Stage III or lower (1][2]{3] Bill Henderson identified four physiological conditions that lead to the development of cancer: ‘Weak immune system Lack of oxygen to the cells Excessive acidity in the body Toxicities in the body [1]His treatment protocol features diet as the most important aspect of treatment along with the use of beta-glucan and nutritional supplements. This diet is meant to cultivate a healthy alkaline terrain that’s unfriendly to cancer cells [2] The Bill Henderson protocol emphasizes diet which requires strict avoidance of the following Gluten Animal protein Sugar Dary Processed foods [1][2] Patients are encouraged to eat raw vegetables. Nutritional supplements are also advised along, with daily consumption of Budwig’s recipe of cottage cheese and flaxseed oil, Bill Henderson’s protocol, in fact, elaborates substantially on Budwig’s protocol [1][2] Safety and Effectiveness The Bill Henderson protocol is a gentle treatment that works quickly to increase the alkalinity in the body and electrically energize healthy cells while killing cancer cells [2]. It achieves this goal by combining the theories of Dr_ Johanna Budwig with other cancer diet principles and anti-cancer supplements [3] Dr. Budwig was an expert on fats and oils and she'd spent a great deal of time studying cancer patients. Looking under a microscope, she'd noticed that patients with cancer had blood cells that lacked oxygen and looked sickly in comparison with the healthy red blood cells in non-cancer patients that were fully oxygenated. She realized that this lack of cellular oxygen was the result of consuming unhealthy, “dead” fats (trans fats, for example), To restore oxygen to the blood, cells need the proper amount of omega-3 fatty acids and patients need to avoid all hydrogenated and chemically processed fats and oils(3][4][5][6] According to Dr. Budwig, “Without these fatty acids [omega-3 fatty acids], the respiratory encymes cannot fiunction and the person suffocates, even when he is given oxygen-rich air. deficiency in these highly unsaturated fatty acids impairs many vital functions” [3] Healthy fats such as cold-pressed, organic flaxseed or extra virgin olive oil, contain a vital electron cloud that allows them to bind properly with oxygen and become water-soluble. The water-solubility of fats and lipids is essential to good health. Human cells need these healthy, water-soluble fats in order to produce energy. A fundamental principle of the Budwig Diet (and the Bill Henderson Protocol) is the avoidance of hydrogenated and chemically refined fats and fats or oils that have been heated. Fats or oils that have been heated or hydrogenated clog up human cells rather than electrifying and energizing them as healthy oils do. As such, theconsumption of hydrogentated, heated, and chemically altered oils and fats can lead to cancer and other serious diseases such as arteriosclerosis [3] How the Bill Henderson Protocol Is Administered An important component of the Bill Henderson Protocol is the Budwig Diet Mixture. Cancer patients should consume at least 8 tablespoons of flaxseed oil as part of this mixture each day Ideally, the Budwig Diet Mixture should be consumed outside in the sun because sunlight helps to “activate” the mixture’s healing properties in the body (and sunlight also helps the patient produce natural vitamin D) Bill Henderson Protocol Basics In addition to consuming the Budwig Diet mixture above, cancer patients should follow a diet that meets the following requirements © Avoid all sugar including high fructose com syrup, refined white sugar, honey, man-matle sugar substitutes, brown sugar, evaporated cane juice suger, etc © Avoid flour because it is converted into sugar/glucose in the body © Avoid all processed andlor packaged foods and fast foods © Avoid all animal products © Avoid all dairy products. The quark mixture is an exception to this rule, Cottage cheese mixed with the flax oil for the Budwig Diet Mixture should be consumed up to 8 times per day. The cottage cheese helps make the flaxseed oil easier to absorb © Consume lots of organic fruits and vegetables. © Eat raw fruits and vegetables whenever possible Avoid caffeine and alcohol ©. See a biological dentist to have root canals and cavitations examined. Have mercury amalgam fillings removed and replaced with a biologically-friendly composite material © Exe daily to keep the lymphatic system moving © Get 30 minutes of daily sunlight so that your body can manufacture vitamin D. Ifyou don’t live in a climate where daily sunlight is possible, take vitamin D supplements and get your vitamin D levels checked [3]Budwig Diet Mixture: Quark Henderson saw the legitimacy of Budwig’s research and her success treating cancer patients so he incorporated one of the main features of the diet, her “quark recipe” into his protocol Budiwig’'s Quark Recipe: 1 Thsp. cold pressed flaxseed oil 2 Tbsp. organic cottage cheese, quark full fat coconut milk, soy milk or rice milk Combine the above ingredients in a glass bowl using an immersion blender. Blend for 1 minute until it has the consistency of whipped cream Ina separate glass bow! Grind 2 Tbsp. golden or brown flaxseeds in a coffée grinder for I minute until they appear ‘fluffy’. Add the cottage cheese mixture to the ground flaxseeds and stir [7] Supplements In addition to the Budwig Mixture and the dietary changes listed above, patients are also advised to take a variety of supplements 1) Beta-1 3-d Glucan — Take one 500 mg capsule for every 50 pounds of body weight. Take these all at once in the morning on an empty stomach. Beta glucans help the body coordinate an appropriate immune response to cancer [8] 2) Take the following supplements with Green Tea Extract © Vitamin C Take 2 tablets, 3 times daily with or without food © L-Lysine -Take 2 tablets, 3 times daily with or without food © Proline Take 2 tablets, 3 times daily with or without food. 3) Take 1 tablet of the Green Tea Extract 3 times per day, with or without food © Barley Grass — Take 20 tablets per day, 15 minutes before mealtimes, Take 7 before breakfast, 7 before lunch, and 6 before dinner © Vitamin D3, 5000 IU —Take one sofigel or more depending on your levels of vitamin D. © Daily Advantage Nutritionals — Take 2 packets per day Possible Negative EffectsAccording to some experts, this protocol as a stand-alone treatment is not appropriate for patients with Stage IV cancers, cancers that have a tendency to spread quickly, or cancers that are particularly dangerous [2]. Patients with more serious cancers should follow a protocol that includes a variety of treatments, not just dietary changes. Itis vital that cancer patients target the disease from several different angles Current research has shown thet the use of beta-glucans can trigger the proliferation of monocytic lineage leukemia cells and the maturation of dendritic cells derived from leukemia cells, More research is needed, but beta-glucans are currently not recommended for leukemia patients [9] Other Important Information Bill Henderson’s Books Cancer-Free: Your Guide to Gentle_ Non-toxic Healing How to Cure Almost Any Cancer at Home for $5.15 a Day Cure Your Cancer: Your Guide to the Internet Beta Glucan Vendor Better Way Health Resources [1] Page, S, Mannion, C, Heilman-Bell, L, Verhoef M.

Patients following the ketogenic diet can continue to eat animal products as long as the animal products are organic and not mixed with undesirable substances such as nitrates, nitrites, artificial flavorings, or colorings, sugar, sugar substitutes, etc. Though the stipulations of this diet may seem to run contrary to all of the other cancer diet stipulations, itis actually in agreement on one important count: the patient must avoid all sugars because sugars feed cancer. The ketogenic diet takes this concept one step further and says that cancer patients should not just avoid sugar, but should avoid ail carbohydrates. Less than 1/8" of the diet should be carbs. The rest of the diet should be all fats and proteins. The kketogenic diet renovates the patient's metabolism such that their main source of energy becomes ketones rather than glucose Detailed Introduction ‘The ketogenic diet is calibrated to cure most non-genetic diseases by giving the body the necessary nutrients in carefully determined proportions. The diet is very low in carbohydrates and higher in proteins and fats. [1][21[3] Proportion of fats : proteins : carbohydrates Patients using the ketogenic diet to cure cancer consume foods according to the following proportions © part protein © 25t0 3.5 parts fat © 0.30 0.5 parts carbohydrates [2] ‘These proportions may vary depending on the specific ketogenic diet, but in all cases, carbohydrates are consumed in very low doses [10]Jan Kwasniewski first set forth the basic tenets of a ketogenic diet, but it was made popular by Robert Atkins in the 1990's [1][7]. Experts believe that the mechanisms through which this diet works to kill cancer have to do with the fact that the ketogenic diet excludes sugar, the primary fuel used by cancer cells. The ketogenic diet limits the supply of sugars/glucose available to cancer cells, ultimately causing the cells to starve to death [9] Ketones ‘The prefix “keto” in “ketogenic” comes from the fact thet the body produces molecules known as ketones when very few carbohydrates are consumed and instead proteins and fats make up the bulk of the diet. Ketones are an altemative fuel supply produced by the body when glucose levels are low. Glucose is derived from carbohydrates so when a patient eats very few carbs, and only moderate amounts of protein, ketones are produced in the liver from fats. The ketones are used in place of glucose as fuel for the body [1][3] ‘When ketones are produced, they can be used throughout the body as fuel. This fact is significant for two reasons © When the body switches to ketones as the primary fuel supply, insulin levels are lowered © When ketones are used for fuel, fat metabolism increases which makes this diet ideal for weight loss ‘Weight Loss Using the Ketogenic Diet ‘Weight loss is easier with the ketogenic diet. And as an added benefit, the ketogenic diet emphasizes the value of ketones as a source of fuel for the brain, which makes it possible for patients to think more clearly while on the diet [1][3] ‘When the body's metabolism switches to consuming ketones for fuel it is said to be in a state of “ketosis”. Fasting and the ketogenic diet can both produce a state of ketosis in the body [3]. Ina state of ketosis, the body is metabolizing fat as its primary source of fuel and if the patient consumes only small amounts of carbohydrates, there is little food for cancer cells. The cancer patients with the highest blood glucose levels have the lowest survival rate, Patients consuming a kketogenic diet have a very low blood glucose level because they consume very few sugars and starches [10] Patients typically follow the ketogenic diet as part of a cancer protocol that includes other integrative cancer treatment options [ Safety and Effectiveness Diseases That Can Be Treated Using the Ketogenic Diet ‘The ketogenic diet works effectively against the following diseasesBuerger’s Disease (thromboagiitis obliterans) Bechterew’s Disease Multiple Sclerosis Rheumatoid Arthritis Liver Cirrhosis Neurasthenia Type I Diabetes (diabetes mellitus) ‘Type II Diabetes Atherosclerosis Hypertension Heart Disease Obesity Stomach Ulcers Bronchial Asthma Degenerative Diseases Glaucoma Psoriasis Migraine Infectious Disease [1] Epilepsy [5] Over twenty studies have show that this diet can help patients lose weight and improve overall health [4][6][8][9] Ketogenic Diet Basics On the ketogenic diet, the most important thing patients need to control is their intake of carbohydrates. Patients should aim to keep carb consumption under 50 grams per day. Patients may need to count carbohydrates at first. Of course, the fewer the carbohydrates in the diet, the better [3] The ketogenic diet also requires strict avoidance of sugars and high suger foods. Ketogenic-friendly foods are particularly high in fats [3]. Consumption of alot of proteins is also avoided because proteins can be converted easily into glucose inside the body. Approximately 75% of a patient's diet should consist of fats [10] There are a variety of ketogenic recipes available to help patients select the correct foods [1] The following foods can be included in a ketogenic diet Permitted Foods Fats (these should male up 75% of the diet) © Coconut Oil © Olive oilAvocados Butter Raw seeds Eggs Raw nuts Proteins (these should make up only 20% of the diet) Wild game Beef (grass-fed only) Fish and seafood Fermented dairy products Organic, pastured poultry Raw, organic dairy products with full fat content Carbohydrate vegetables (these should male up only a very small proportion of the diet) Garlic Asparagus Mushrooms Broccoli Celery Cabbage Brussel sprouts Cauliflower Onion Collard greens Spinach Kale [1][10] Intermittent Fasting and the Ketogenic Diet ‘While the ketogenic diet causes the metabolism to switch over to using ketones for fuel, fasting. can achieve the same goal. But because fasting for long periods of time is difficult and potentially dangerous, many cancer patients instead choose to “intermittently fast” for 20 hours a day. On a 20 hour fast, patients only eat between 3:00 PM and 7:00 PM each day which allows their bodies to detoxify while producing ketones for fuel rather than relying on glucose metabolism [10] Supplements Patients practicing the ketogenic diet should take probiotics, and a multi-vitamin supplement as, well as omega-3 supplements [10] Other Important Information‘The Holistic Bio Spain Puerto Vallarta, Mexico offers the ketogenic diet as part of a cancer treatment protocol The Holistic Bio Spa Plaza Marina, Local B-10 Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco, Mexico 48335 +52-332-221-1607 info@holistic-bio-spa.com https://www holisticbiospa com/ Contraindications The ketogenic diet should not be used by patients with the following physical considerations without consulting a doctor © Insulin-dependent diabetics © Patients who take medication for high blood pressure © Patients who are breastfeeding Resources [1] Kwasniewski, J.

This is legitimate. Some of the doctors and scientists who have developed the cancer diets in this section have an anti-supplement stance (particularly Livingston- Wheeler and Budwig), They believed that supplements were an unnatural, and possibly ineffective way to get the recommended nutrients for good health It’s important to note that most of the research that resulted in the development of the diets in this section was assembled in the mid 1900’s. The China Study is the youngest of the diets in this section, but even the research for the China Study was done in the 1980’s prior to some of the sweeping changes that were made in the United States food industry. The anti-supplement stance taken by some of the researchers in this section needs to be considered within the histoi context in which it was created. Food was different in the 1950's. At that time, fresh fruits and vegetables were more likely to contain high-quality nutrient profiles that simply may not exist anymore today in the fruits and veggies available at the supermarket, Fruits and vegetables today that are grown on American soil are lacking in important trace minerals, a fact that was placed before the U.S. government nearly a century ago. Fruits and vegetables that are imported from other lands are transported long distances before they reach the grocery store. In either case, nutrients are depleted, which means that most Americans need supplements in order to maintain or regain their health The vitamin and mineral industry is also different now than it was in the mid-1950’s. Vitamins as we know them today weren’t isolated and researched scientifically until the 1910's through the 1940's, After this time period, the nutritional supplement industry changed, grew, and then became increasingly restricted by the US. government. In October 1994, The Dietary and Supplement Health and Education Act was approved by Congress to limit whet claims nutritional supplement manufacturers can make on their product packaging without prior FDA review. While this act appears to be protecting the consumer, those who are privy to the politics of American medicine know that certain vitamins and minerals present a threat to the pharmaceutical industry because low-level deficiency diseases are common and they produce a multitude of symptoms thet differ from patient to patient. Most patients don’t recognize nutritional deficiencies for what they are. Rather, the media has taught patients to view their symptoms as diseases that must be treated with pharmaceuticals. In some cases, Big Pharma has even gone so far as to produce synthetic versions of essential vitamins and minerals that cause vitamin deficiencies. Patients often don’t realize that they’ve been prescribed a synthetic version of vitamin A or Iodine or they believe that the prescription they’ ve been given is better than the real thing. Unfortunately though, because synthetic vitamin A is not vitamin A, patients often experience relief from some of their symptoms at frst, but experience “side effects” that mimic the deficiency disease associated with vitamin A as time wears on. Because doctors aren’t educated about nutrition, vitamins, or minerals, they don’t realize that patients are experiencing symptoms of a deficiency disease and the cycle continues with Big Pharma profiting enormously from the chronic illnesses that resultMany researchers working in different countries all across the world have uncovered the sad fact that most of the chronic degenerative diseases that plague modem society are based on nutritional deficiencies. Often supplements are necessary to correct the de even if the patient is following an excellent diet, especially if the deficiency is severe, or long-standing That being said, one of the pros of following a diet that requires no supplementation is that patients can focus more on the foods they're eating including the choice of foods and the preparation. This extra investment of time and energy into the food certainly makes a difference in the final outcome of the diet on the treatment of cancer. Emotionally, it may be less overwhelming to work with a diet that doesn’t require along list of supplements as well. Patients must decide for themselves which diet is the best fit for them.Livingston-Wheeler Diet: Abscisin-Based Diet and Immunotherapy Protocol Quick Summary ‘The Livingston-Wheeler cancer treatment approach is based on the idea that cancer is caused by microorganism known as Progenitor cryptocides. This is similar to the theory set forth by Royal Rife, who developed a special microscope to view microbes while they were still alive. He was able to view living cancer-causing organisms under his microscope and developed a vibrational therapy to combat these organisms. Royal Rife believed that there were pleomorphic organisms called somatids that could change shape and tum into cancer-causing agents. Dr. Isaac Goiz, the developer of biomagnetism also discovered microorganisms that it Livingston-Wheeler’s description in his research. These researchers were working independently and didn’t know about each other’s discoveries, yet they still discovered similar things. The Livingston-Wheeler approach became popular in the 1970°s and was used to combat these organisms using a vaccine along with lifestyle changes. In addition to the vaccine, Livingston-Wheeler also had patients follow an anti-cancer diet as an integral part of her treatment program [1][3][4][5] Detailed Introduction Dr. Virginia Livingston-Wheeler was an American physician and cancer researcher. She discovered a microorganism called Progenitor eryptocides thet is responsible for the development of cancer and created a therapeutic approach to combat the disease by combating the microorganism associated with it [1][2] Prior to pursuing a degree in medicine, Dr. Livingston-Wheeler eamed three B.A. degrees in English, economics, and history. Both her father and her grandfather were physicians. She was one of only four other women who graduated with a degree in medicine from New York. University, Bellevue Medical College in 1936. Dr. Livingston- Wheeler had more than forty years of experience in medicine when she began presenting her findings and successes working with cancer patients. She was listed in the Who's Who of science and medicine and her research had been applauded by the University of San Diego when she worked as professor of microbiology at Rutger’s University. She was a recognized leader in medicine in Rome, Paris, and New York [1][2]Politics In 1947, Virgina Wuerthele-Caspe (ater Livingston-Wheeler), published the scientific paper “Etiology of Scleroderma that detailed the observations of several researchers, These researchers had discovered a mycobacterium that seemed to be the cause of scleroderma Their findings, however, were not widely reported by the media or by other scientific journals and still to this day, despite Dr. Wheeler-Livingston’s findings that scleroderma is caused by a mycobacterium, few doctors know about this fact. Her findings about cancer-causing bacteria were unpopular in mainstream medicine most likely because they threatened orthodox approaches to treating cancer. Today, her treatment approach has been dubbed “unproven” by the American Cancer Society. The word “unproven” is used by the ACS to describe cancer treatment approaches that have not received funding for research because if they were researched, they would threaten The Cancer Industry [6][7] To really understand the politics of cancer cures, one must understand the role that non-profit, so-called “philanthropic” organizations play in influencing whet treatments are used and which ones are discarded. Certain foundations relevant to cancer treatment and cancer cures are heavily ced by wealthy families like the Rockefellers who have a prime stake in making sure the public remains disillusioned about healthcare. Because the Rockefellers have a financial stake in the continuing use of pharmaceuticals and surgical interventions, they wish to encourage the American public to continue to seek out conventional medical treatments for cancer (such as surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation). Foundations such as the American Cancer Society are organizations that function as tax shelters for families such as the Rockefellers (who engineered many of the current healthcare practices today to protect their business-interests and extreme wealth). These organizations espouse the views of these families in order to protect their wealth and continue to receive generous donations. In fact, many of these organizations were created more as away to protect the financial interests of the Rockefellers and other dynastic families whose wealth influences major players in government [8] According to G. Edward Griffin, the author of World Without Cancer, the Rockefellers, Morgans, Camegies, and the Mellons use a special approach to cleverly misinform the American public while maintaining the appearance of being philanthropic “The plan was both simple and ingenious, They would transfer the bulk of their visible assets to something called foundations. They would appoint hand-picked and loyal underlings to administer these foundations. They would require a portion of their assets to be dispersed under the appearance of charity or philanthropy. They would design most afthose gifts, however. to benefit themselves, their business enterprises, or to further their political objectives. They would retain full control of their assets and use them just as freely as if they remained directly in their name. They would avoid the payment of any significant inheritance tax upon the death of the ‘donor’, thus ensuring that the fortune remained intact and in the hands of family or corporate control in perpetuity. And they would use the supposedly charitable nature of the foundation as a means of avoiding thepayment of most, ifnot all, of the income tax they then were advocating to be paid by everyone else” [8] To shed more light on how the work of foundations like the American Cancer Society are puppeteered by certain powerful players to put a spin on “scientific” data that’s fed to the ‘American public, Ferdinand Lundberg explains the process in the following way in The Rich and the Super Rich: “Recipients of the money must be ideologically acceptable to the donors. There is a positive record showing that, by these means purely corporate elements are able to ‘influence research and many university policies, particularly in the selection of personnel” [9] He goes on to explain that the foundations, in turn, are “staunch supporters of the “physical sciences” because scientific findings (even spurious scientific findings) can be used to influence the public and therefore generate profits [9] To demonstrate how the intermingling of dynastic wealth and power has come to influence supposedly patient-centric organizations such as the American Cancer Society, consider some of the people who have been on its board of directors Alfred P. Sloan (General Motors) Charles D. Hilles (AT&T) Monroe Rathbone (Standard Oil) Frederich Ecker (Metropolitan Life) [9] ‘Also consider this unfortunate conflict-of-interest: the American Cancer Society holds halEownership in the patent rights to one of the major chemotherapy drugs known as SFU or 5 fuorouacil. Fluorouracil, by the way, is manufactured by Hoffman-LaRoche Laboratories, a company under the influence of LG. Farben and the Rockefellers. Patients who donate to and seek out supposedly “trustworthy” information from the American Cancer Society might be inclined to steer clear of this organization if they knew the vested interest that it has in selling them chemotherapy medications [9] ‘The American Cancer Society has categorically denied Dr. Livingston’s theories about the origins of cancer. The ACS published a position paper in 1990 urging cancer patients not to use Livingston-Whecler treatments perhaps bec ‘would eliminate the need for the organization [2][4][7] se a cure for cane Safety and Effectiveness Dr. Livingston-Wheeler achieved a 90% success rate treating patients using her immunotherapy approach to cancer treatment along with a special cancer diet [1]Dr. McClelland, who offers the Livingston-Wheeler protocol at a clinic in San Diego says that he’s had great success treating the following types of cancer using this protocol © Prostate © Breast cance ©) Melanoma [12] vancer How the Livingston. Wheeler Diet and Protocol Is Administered ‘The Livingston-Wheeler Diet is not a stand-alone treatment. It was developed to be used in tandem with other cancer treatments, in particular, Livingston-Wheeler’s vaccine and immunotherapy treatments [1] ‘The Livingston-Wheeler immunotherapy treatment is administered as an autologous, anti-tuberculosis vaccine (BCG) which is designed to boost the immune system. The vaccine is prepared from a culture of the patient’s own P. cryptocides microbes. Several administrations of this vaccine are required to stimulate the immune system to combat cancer. The P. cryptocides vaccine is made from the patient's urine Dr. McClelland regards the BCG (tuberculosis) vaccine as the comerstone of the Livingston-Wheeler treatment, He uses this vaccine to enhance the immune system so that the autogenous vaccine is optimized. Patients are then tested every 3 months to make sure that their immune titers remain high. Patients may receive BCG therapy for up to a year [1][3][4][12] ‘Though Livingston-Wheeler believed that it was best for patients to receive all their nutrients from food, a supplement protocol is recommended. In addition to vaccines, patients today who undergo the Livingston- Wheeler cancer approach adhere to a vegetarian diet, consume foods that are high in antioxidants, and detoxify using coffee enemas. Patients take high doses of vitamin C (up to 100 grams per day) and vitamin E along with a peptide + amino acid supplement, and vitamin B-12 injections. Patients also take various mineral supplements along with an immune-boosting diet to promote general health during the vaccine treatment. A modified version of the Gerson Diet is recommended for patients using this protocol as the Gerson diet has anumber of characteristics in common with Livingston-Wheeler’s dietary approach [1][4][12] In some cases, Dr. McClelland of the Livingston Foundation Medical Center also presci antibiotics to cancer patients depending on their specific health profile [12] bes The Livingston-Wheeler Diet Basics ‘The Dr. Livingston-Wheeler diet focused heavily on abscisins, substances found in plants that help the plant know when to flower, when to go dormant, when leaves should tum color, ete Abscisins are high in plants that are ready to flower (e.g, sprouted seedlings not over 7 days old, and the green tips of broccoli). Approximately 50% of the diet should be raw. Often patients stay on this diet for 1 year or longer [1]. Below are additional dietary instructions13 14 15 16 17. 18 19 23 24 25 26 During the day, fresh juices and homemade soups are given in place of water. Fluoridated water and chlorinated water should be strictly avoided for drinking as well as for cooking Food should be cooked in stainless steel, waterless cookware such as ironstone steamers, stainless steel steaming baskets, or vapor cookers (steamers). Pressure cookers, microwave ovens, and aluminum pots and utensils should be avoided Avoid alcohol and soft drinks Avoid iced drinks Do not smoke and avoid being in a room with a smoker Avoid refined and processed foods Eat organically grown, unsprayed, un-fumigated fruits and vegetables Livingston-Wheeler regarded the soil as the patient’s “extemal metabolism” Avoid wilted, pale, flabby, soft, or spotted fruits and vegetables that lack vitality, Use biodegradable detergents with a vegetable base for dishwashing, laundry, and for washing produce ‘When gas, bloating, and indigestion occur immediately after eating, this may be an indication that there is alack of hydrochloric acid in the stomach, To alleviate the problem, take HCL supplements with meals Eat foods high in potassium such as greens, potatoes, nuts, lima beans, and most fruits and vegetables Read ail food labels. Avoid artificial colors, flavors, preservatives, and sugar substitutes Avoid preservatives such as BHT and BHA, even when they’re used in the containers Get 8 hours of sleep each night and regular relaxation Exercise daily. Sunbathe Take hot baths to increase circulation Cultivate a positive mental attitude Avoid toxic beauty products, shampoos, conditioners, deodorants, and other personal care products, and cosmetics, that contain chemicals and fragrances ‘Add one heaping teaspoon of ascorbic acid (vitamin C) to juices, soups, and teas as tolerated ‘Add nuts to any recipe to increase the protein content, choosing nuts you most enjoy (avoid peanuts and peanut products) Limit yourself to one to two pieces of citrus fruits per day because of the high sugar content. Eat citrus fruits whole. Don’t juice them Drink milk only ifit is raw, unpasteurized, and certified organic Combine legumes, grains, and leafy vegetables Eat at most | to 2 dates or figs per day. Eat carrot sticks, celery, and other raw vegetables, nuts, or dried foods as snacks [1] Dr. Livingston-Wheeler adjusted the patient's diet according to the patient's needs © Diet #1 — for acutely ill cancer patients © Diet #2 — for recuperating canc patients© Diet #3 — for recovering patients on a maintenance program Patients who are often nauseated are given vegetable juices because they are easy to digest and beneficial to health. Patients who cannot tolerate vegetable juices are given grain meal water added to the juice to soothe the digestive system [1] Once patients are able to tolerate the vegetable juice, Dr. Livingston-Wheeler added about % ofa ripe avocado to the juice. The avocado aided in the breakdown of carotene in the carrot juices. The avocado also contains a substance found in plants known as “abscisin” which can help cancer cells stop dividing [1] ‘After patients are tolerating the vegetable juice and avocado, Livingston-Wheeler adds Basic Muesli into the diet as a breakfast food and a snack [1] Details regarding the Livingston- Wheeler Diet along with recipes are available in the book Zhe Conquest of Cancer. Other Important Information ‘The idea that cancer is caused by an infectious organism is unfamiliar to alot of American and European patients, but in fact, a number of scientists have stumbled across this infectious cancer-causing organism in their research. These scientists have all described seeing something similar an infectious organism that changes shape and characteristics in response to an environmental stimulant or irritation. Scientists who have observed the cancer-causing organism have all said that at times it looks like a fungus, at other times it looks like a virus, and at yet other times it looks like a bacterium Other Theories Supported by Livingston-Wheeler’s Research According to Dr. Livingston-Wheeler, the infective agent in cancer is able to hybridize genetically with the host’s healthy cells which ultimately causes the healthy cells to develop into cancer cells. This line of reasoning is consistent with the views set forth by Dr. Keith Brewer, the developer of Cesium Therapy, a biologist whose primary field of interest was the behavior of cellular membranes. Dr. Brewer believed that healthy cells developed cancerous behaviors in response to chronic irritation by a toxin or a pathogenic microorganism. Dr. Livingston-Wheeler demonstrated through her research, that the microorganisms that cause cancer are able to genetically engineer their hybridization with the host cell to cause specific changes in cellular biology that leads to cancer [3][10] Dr. Livingston-Wheeler also noted that the P.crytocides were able to act as a kind of fertilizing organism of human cells. When the P. crytocides “fertilized” the human cell, it was able to initiate abnormal cellular replication/cancer. Her observations are consistent with Dr. John Beard’s Trophoblast Theory of Cancer. Dr. Beard observed that a trophoblast (the early stages of cellular replications that take place immediately after a sperm fertilizes an ovum), has importantcharacteristics that are identical to a cancer cell: both trophoblasts and cancer ¢ metastatic, they both form new blood vessels, and both have the samechemic: (3171 sare invasive, composition ‘As aresult of her research, Dr. Livingston- Wheeler believed that cancer was a disease that was transmissible to man from animals, a theory which lends additional credibility to The China Study, the most comprehensive nutritional research project ever conducted. According to the findings of The China Study, the consumption of meat and animal products can lead to the development of cancer [11] Dr. Edwin McClelland Cli ingston Foundation Medical Center — San Diego, CA ‘The San Diego Immunotherapy Clinic used the Livingston- Wheeler protocol until 2004 when it was forced to close due to financial difficulties, a common occurrence for cancer treatment facilities that offer options other than chemotherapy and radiation therapy to patients in the United States. Dr. Edwin McClelland worked at this clinic for a short time and after it closed, he decided to open his own clinic to treat patients. The clinic that now offers the Dr. Livingston-Wheeler immunotherapy program is called the Livingston Foundation Medical Center [12] ‘The San Diego clinic offers a 2-week treatment program. The clinic is located 7 to 8 minutes from the San Diego airport. Reduced rates for patients are available at the Holiday Inn ($99/night at the time of this writing). The cost of treatment is between $8500-9500 depending on the laboratory tests ordered for the patient. This cost includes a 3 to 6-month supply of vaccines and nutraceuticals. Patients traveling from abroad receive a year’s worth of vaccines and nutritional supplements for $14,000-$16,000 total.

Additionally, she was regarded as a top European cancer researcher, biochemist, blood specialist, physicist, and pharmacologist who was short-listed for a Nobel Prize seven times. She developed a diet that focused on using fats and oils to rejuvenate the body atthe cellular level. According to Budwig, processed fats such as, trans fats “suffocate” the cells. This suffocation can trigger the development of cancer. Budwig advocated that patients consume only “living oils” that were organic and cold pressed such as. extra virgin olive oil, organic coconut oil, and in particular cold-pressed, organic flax seed oil. Her dietary recommendations regarding oils meld easily and can enhance the healing benefits of many of the other cancer diets that are recommended for patients in this section on nutritional therapies. In particular, most cancer patients can benefit from consuming Budwig’s “quark” recipe of cottage cheese and flaxseed oil in a 2:1 ratio. Important Note: Do not take anti-oxidants 3 hours before or 3 hours after doing the Budwig Protocol. Detailed Introduction Dr. Johanna Budwig was a German doctor who lived between 1908 and 2003. She was regarded as a top European cancer researcher, a biochemist, pharmacologist, blood specialist, physicist, and a leading authority on the health benefits of fats and oils. She was short-listed for a Nobel Prize seven times (1][2][7] Dr. Budwig was the German government's senior expert on fats and pharmaceutical drugs in 1952. Her research demonstrated the negative impact that highly processed fats such as trans fats and oils can have on cellular membranes and functioning in the human body. Specifically, she believed that diseases like cancer resulted from the cellular membrane’ inability to properly transport oxygen into cells. This lack of cellular oxygen resulted from a deficiency of omega-3 fatty acids in the diet. According to her research, commercially processed fats and oils cause human cells to have alower voltage, which leads to chronic disease. The cell becomes like a dead battery that fails to function properly and lacks flexibility and vitality in the body QIPIMI9}Cells that lack the proper amount of omega-3’s also become congested and inflamed which can lead to a variety of circulatory problems including arteriosclerosis. The nervous system benefits from omega-3’s as well. Budwig leamed that by providing patients with the proper amount of linoleic and alpha-linoleic fatty acids, the brain and nervous system functioning improved. The best source of the omega-3 fatty acids comes from flax seeds (Linum usitatissimum) [2][9] Diseases That Can Be Treated Using the Budwig Diet ‘The Budwig Protocol can help patients with the following issues Cancer Asthritis Heart Disease Eczema Psoriasis Hormonal imbalance Diabetes Poor neurological functioning Inflammation [9] Politics ‘Though Budwig was highly regarded in scientific circles, when she spoke out about the potential health hazards of trans fats and other highly processed oils and fats after World War II she was exiled from the Institute for Fats Research in Germany [2] She said, “The vast majority of chronic illnesses today are caused by the improper mass processing of foods and oils, plus poor nutrition as well as the worldwide use of dangerous pesticides which contaminate food and destroy electrons (2] Today, large organizations and the medical establishment claim that “there is no reliable evidence” that the Budwig diet works to treat cancer. As with other holistic medical treatments for cancer, and particularly diet therapies, special linguistic tricks have been employed to misinform the public without officially lying about them. In this case, for example, the word “reliable” is used as an adjective to describe the word “evidence” as it pertains to the Budwig diet, But the word “reliable” is subjective. The definition for this word (eliable) has been set by the large organizations that wish to keep the pharmaceutical industry in power. There is in fact, quite alot of evidence that the Budwig diet can help cancer patients recover their health, but this evidence would not necessarily live up to the standards set by powerful organizations like the Sloan Kettering Center, for example. These “standards” however, involve double-blind testing But many doctors like Dr. Budwig aren’t willing to do “double-blind” testing on their patients for the simple reason that to do so would mean excluding half of the patients fom receiving healing treatments while leading them to believe that they were receiving it. The Sloan KetteringCenter uses the word “unproven” to scare cancer patients away from the Budwig diet. They can’t say that there’s “no evidence” or that the diet doesn’t work, because there is evidence. And the word “unproven” is particularly useful in a context like this because in science, nothing can be proven [4][5][9][12]. Theories can only be aisproven, but the general public doesn’t know this scientific jargon or the rules of science so the word “unproven” implies that a treatment is ineffective or even dangerous even ifit’s ten times more effective than conventional treatment options ‘The Budwig Center provides testimonials from patients who have been healed of a variety of diseases (including cancer) using this treatment strategy [6] Safety and Effectiveness Dr. Budwig’s research led her to discover that a particular kind of cheese called “quark” contains the same sulphydryl groups found in cancer treatment drugs. The suphydryl groups are © Methionineamino acids © Cysteine [7] ‘The Budwig Diet is based on the idea that when cells are growing, the nucleus and the membrane of the cell have opposite charges. The nucleus is positively charged while the membrane carries a negative charge. When cells are dividing, this charge differential causes daughter-cells to break off from mother cells, but if the electrical charge of the mother cell is disordered, the daughter cell can’t break off from it, which can lead to tumors [1][2] Because cellular membranes are made up of fats, the electrical charge of cellular membranes is altered by processed fats. When unsaturated fats have been chemically altered, their field of electrons are removed, The result is that these processed fats destroy the field of electrons that are necessary in order for the cells to function properly and communicate with other cells in the body [1] Dr. Budwig’s research demonstrated that cancer patients who followed her protocol had higher concentrations of oxygen in their cells and they were able to overcome all states of cancer including cancer of the digestive system, breast, brain, and skin [7] NOTE: Those with a colostomy and patients with colon or colorectal cancer should not consume chia or flaxseeds How the Budwig Protocol Is Administered ‘The Budwig Protocol involves a diet as well as enemas [1] Budwig Diet Summary Belowis a summary of the Budwig Protocol‘The most important part of the diet involves the consumption of quark or cottage cheese (full fat coconut milk or coconut yogurt, soy mill, or rice milk could be substituted for these ingredients) mixed with flaxseed oil in a 2:1 ratio. The two should be blended together until no visible oil remains floating. The combination of proteins and fats consumed together makes it easy for the body to assimilate. Patients can add other ingredients like fresh fruit to this mixture only after the ingredients in the mixture have been fully incorporated (2][71[9] Cancer patients should consume 8 tablespoons of flaxseed oil daily. One tablespoon of flaxseed oil can be consumed daily to prevent cancer [7] Patients should avoid all refined and granulated sugars and meats Patients should avoid all processed foods Patients should avoid drugs and supplements Patients should only eat fresh foods, never leftovers Patients should only drink purified water. Patients should eat only fresh, organic fruits and vegetables Flaxseeds should be consumed fresh, within 15 minutes of grinding them [7] In addition to consuming the flaxseed oil-quark mixture, patients should also get plenty of sunshine. Dr. Budwig recommends eating the mixture outside in the sun because the sunshine activates it in the body [7][8] Some experts recommend combining the Budwig Protocol with the Gerson Diet for best results [9]. Patients could also combine the Budwig Protocol with the Binzel Diet or The China Study dietBudwig Protocol - Quark Recipe Guide Use a 2:1 ratio of cottage cheese to flaxseed oil. ie. 4 TBSP cottage cheese : 2 TBSP flaxseed oil qy + Cottage Cheese b> Full Fat Coconut Milk/Coconut Yogurt ae Soy Mile + fice Mik Farseed Oi Step 1: Whip cottage cheese (or non-dairy substitute) and flaxseed oil a blender until no oil is visible anymore.

Scientifically, what this means is that the results of the study are likely to reflect an important truth about diet and disease, There were two important things that scientists leamed from the study: 1) the consumption of animal products (meats, dairy products, etc.) can lead to the development of cancer, eating less than 5% animal products in the diet can eliminate cancer and 2) the consumption of dairy products leeches calcium from the bones causing osteoporosis (not preventing it as the dairy industry advertises) The China Study diet is extremely straightforward. Patients consume a whole-foods, plant-based diet that excludes animal products and highly processed foods. Detailed Introduction The China Study was a twenty-year, collaborative project and one of the most comprehensive studies of nutrition ever conducted [1][3][4]. The research findings from The China Study revealed that © With appropriate dietary changes, diabetic patients can go off their medications and live normal, healthy lives © Approper diet alone can reverse heart disease. Reducing the amount of animal protein in the diet is more important than reducing saturated fats © Breast cancer specifically is affected by femele hormones circulating in the blood. These hormone levels are affected by diet. ©. The consumption of dairy products increases the risk of prostate cancer© The consumption of antioxidants found in fresh fruits and vegetables are significantly correlated with better mental performance in old age. © Ahealthy diet can prevent kidney stones. © Type I diabetes is linked to infant feeding practices [1] ‘The China Study was undertaken in the 1980’s by T. Colin Campbell, a nutritional biochemist with a PhD from Comell University, in tandem with researchers at Oxford University and the Chinese Academy of Preventative Medicine. The study looked closely at the diets, lifestyle, and diseases prevalent in the populations of 65 counties in rural China Approximately 6,500 participants provided information about their lifestyle and diet to researchers. The study showed significant differences between the health profiles of populations that relied on plant-based diets in the rural Chinese counties in comparison with similar populations consuming animal-based, ‘Westem diets. The most significant finding from the China Study was thet the closer a population gets to an all plant-based diet, the lower their risk of chronic disease, including cancer [2]. This information correlates with observations made by Dr_Livingston-Wheeler who observed that the cancer-causing Progenitor cryptocides mycobacterium could easily be transmitted from animals (e.g chickens) to humans ‘The mistaken belief that meat is the only or best source of protein for humans has led to a variety of health issues in modem society. While plants contain a different configuration of amino acids than meats and animal products, the protein configuration of plants is healthier because it allows the body to slowly and steadily produce the proteins it needs to maintain health without over-producing the proteins. Over-producing proteins can lead to health problems. An excess of protein elevates blood cholesterol which can lead to atherosclerosis, for example [1][3] Politics The book, The China Study, unexpectedly became one of the all time best-selling nutrition titles in history. President Bill Clinton cited the books in explaining how he lost 24 pounds to improve his heart health by converting to a plant-based diet [3]. As such, The China Study is one of few altemative anti-cancer treatments to benefit from some political support Inhis book, Dr. Campbell talks about how publishing companies wished to market The China ‘Study, which provides a glimpse into how misinformation about diet often comes from the impulse of publishing companies and the media to pander to the masses. One publisher wanted for Dr. Campbell to leave out scientific information and instead include recipes in the book Another publisher asked Dr. Campbell if he could provide a specific diet for several different chronic diseases (for example. separate dietary recommendations for cancer, heart disease, and diabetes). But Dr. Campbell insisted that science has shown that whole foods and a plant-based diet leads to general good health and the obliteration of the major chronic diseases that plague modem society. In order to publish the book complete with a summary of the research and his experiences working with food and nutrition, Dr. Campbell had to go to a small publishing company in Texas that agreed to incorporate all the scientific information into the book [1]Safety and Effectiveness Comprehensive research performed for The China Study has demonstrated that a diet comprised of whole, plant-based foods can treat and prevent a wide variety of diseases including © Cancer © Heart disease © Diabetes [3] er and diet has shown that a diet that includes less than 5% animal products can literally switch-off cancer growth while a diet with more than 5% animal products can tum it on and promote cancer growth [1] ‘The China Study Diet “The diet set forth in the China Study is straightforward. It is based on the consumption of whole, plant-based foods. People following the diet eat primarily (95%) fresh fruits and vegetables with less than 5% of their diet coming from animal-products including meats and dairy produc Dairy milk is replaced with milk derived from plants (soy milk, coconut milk, almond milk, and rice milk, etc), Beans and other legumes replace meats China Study Food Principles © Nutrition is not just the study of individual nutrients, but the combined physiological response to food as a whole. The whole is greater than the sum of ts parts [1][3] © Dietary supplements cannot replace the nutrients in whole foods. They are not a panacea for good health [1] ©. There are virtually no nutrients in animal-based foods that are not provided in a healthier format by plants [1] © Genes do not determine health. Rather, genes interact with the environment and then respond to lifestyle choices. They can be activated and expressed or they can be silent and de-activated depending on the choices we make [1] © Nutrition can help us overcome the toxicities and adverse effects of chemicals [1] © A diet that can prevent a disease like cancer before diagnosis can also halt or reverse the disease after it has been diagnosed [1] © Nutrition that prevents or treats one chronic disease will support general health as well io] © Good nutrition leads to good health in all areas of our lives [1]Dietary Supplements for Patients in Northern Climates Several anti-cancer diets recommend the consumption of few or no dietary supplements. The China Study recommendations fall into this category. According to The China Study guidelines, nutrients including vitamins and minerals should come primarily from plants. Dr. Campbell recommends only daily supplements with e vitamin B12 © vitamin D (ifthe patient spends most of their time indoors or lives in a norther climate) io] Animal-Based Foods the lower percentage of animal-based foods, the greater the health er patients, cutting out animal-based foods is an important part of regaining [1] Campbell, T.

That’s a good question when it comes to cancer treatment. Fasting can give the liver amuch needed break while depriving cancer cells of the sugars they need to survive But a total fast can put stress on the body too, which can cause the body to release cortisol Cortisol can then cause sugars to be released into the bloodstream defeating the whole purpose of the fast ‘The idea of fasting may seem completely repulsive to some people, but to others, fasting to cure cancer may seem appealing because ofits simplicity. For still others, a combination of fasting for short bursts while following another cancer diet may be the most appealing route to take Urine therapy, which involves a total fast from everything except drinking one’s own urine, may seem like a strange thing to do, but urine does, in fact, contain substances that have been used in a variety of effective cancer protocols. Some doctors believe that the urine contains an essential mix of hormones that have been accidentally discarded by an imbalanced physiology. By replacing the hormones (by drinking one’s own urine), the imbalance is corrected The Brandt Grape Cure works by a totally different mechanism of action than Urine Fasting Patients who follow the grape cure eat only grapes, a food that contains all kinds of substances that are poisonous to cancer cells. But grapes also contain something that cancer cells love suger. So when a patient fasts on nothing but grapes, cancer cells have no choice but to allow admittance of these substances that are poisonous to them along with the sugars. The Brandt Grape Cure is similar to taking a tablespoon of maple syrup mixed with a tablespoon of baking sodato cure cancer. The sugary maple syrup gains admittance into the cancer cells, but brings alkalizing baking soda along with it. Every cancer cell requires an acidic pH in order to survive so the alkalizing effects of baking soda brought along with the maple syrup can kill it Since cancer cells are surrounded by a thick fibrin sheath that is notoriously difficult to penetrate, the careful use of sugars along with alkalizers and other substances like those found in grapes, can quickly change the course of the illness for the better.Urine Fasting Quick Summary Urine fasting, which involves drinking one’s own urine and spreading the urine on the skin usually while abstaining from eating and drinking anything else except water, can have rapid results when all else fails. The practice comes from the east where people regularly drink a daily dose of their urine as part of a yoga practice in India About 3 million Chinese people drink their urine daily too in order to maintain good health, Urine contains phenylbuterate, a substance that’s administered to cancer patients intravenously and many doctors believe that urine also contains valuable hormones, enzymes, and other substances that, wien re-introduced into the body, can re-balance the patient’s physiology. Detailed Introduction Urine fasting is a controversial treatment approach for cancer in large part because it involves drinking one’s own urine and spreading urine on the skin. But urine fasting has been shown to reduce LDL cholesterol (bad cholesterol) while increasing HDL cholesterol (good cholesterol). It also weakens cancer cells through mechanisms that aren’t entirely understood although phenylbutyrate is found in the blood and urine and this substance has been used successfully as an intravenous cancer treatment [2] Urine is made up of 95% water, 2.5% urea, and 2.5% minerals, salts, hormones, and enzymes. It is sterile when it leaves the body and has antiseptic qualities [1][3]. On aurine fast, patients only consume urine and so this “diet” effectively starves cancer cells. Experts on this treatment method also believe that there are other important mechanisms at work that promote healing of the body through the use of the urine. EffectivenessAccording to urine therapy proponents, the kidneys remove excess enzymes, hormones, minerals, and other important substances from the blood in order to create balance in the body [3]. Below are some of the diseases and disorders that respond to urine therapy: Hairloss ‘Throat inflammation Trembling hands and knees Scurvy Jaundice Deafness Sore eyes ‘Numbness Sores Gangrene Itching Cancer [1][3] Urine Fasting Basics Urine fasting involves drinking urine as well as applying urine to the skin, Patients drink all of their urine and/or spread it on their skin until they've fully recovered from cancer. During a urine fast, patients don’t eat food and only consume urine and water. Contrary to expectation, patients often urinate more when they are doing a urine fast [1][4] Jon Armstrong used urine fasting to treat anumber of cancer patients who had been rejected by their doctors as untreatable, He also used urine to treat other serious diseases such as gangrene. Urine fasting may take place over the course of several days or weeks or until the patient has been entirely healed [1][4] ‘At the end of a urine fast, preferably at the time of an evening meal, patients are encouraged to begin by drinking a glass of lemon juice. At noon the following day, the patient can drink date juice or grape juice. On the evening of the second day following the urine fast, the patient can eat papaya and other fruits, By day three, lentil soup is recommended with boiled vegetables and brown rice. After that anormal diet can resume [5] Other Information ‘The Holistic Bio Spain Puerto Vallarta, Mexico assists patients with urine fasting as part of a cancer treatment plan: The Holistic Bio Spa Plaza Marina, Local B-10 Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco, Mexico 48335 +52-332-221-1607 info@holistic-bio-spa.com https://www holisticbiospa comsBecause chemicals from allopathic drugs are excreted in the urine, patients should not drink their urine or spread urine on their bodies if they are taking medications [3] Resources [1] Armstrong, J.

But this diet isn’t for everyone because not everyone can eat only red, black, or purple grapes for several weeks, For some, it may not be possible to eat only grapes for nutritional reasons, for others, it may be difficult to find grapes that aren’t GMO (for example, seeilless grapes are GMO) or sprayed with insecticide (insecticide is particularly relevant because ifit contains methyl bromide, the patient could become iodine deficient, which can ‘worsen cancer). Because the patient will be eating a lot of grapes, it’s important that the grapes are not GMO or sprayed with chemicals [1] ‘The Brandt Grape Cure is recommended for Stage IV cancers, butit is not recommended for aggressive cancers such as pancreatic cancer or brain cancer [1] Detailed Introduction ‘The Brandt Grape Cure is one of the simplest and most potent cancer diets available, but it’s important that patients who do this diet choose non-GMO, insecticide-free grapes. [fhigh-quality grapes like this are not available, patients can substitute carrot juice with a little bit of beet juice for the grapes. But, if carrots/beets are used instead of grapes, then grapes can NOT be used concurrently | In other words, if the patient is doing a grape fast, the patient can NOT eat carrots and beets too. If the patient chooses to do the carrot/beet fast, they can NOT eat grapes too [1] Purple (Concord) grapes that have both their skin and their seeds are the ideal grapes to use for this fast, butred and black grapes can work too. The purple grapes and to a lesser extent the red and black grapes contain a variety of substances that are poisonous to cancer cells. These substances can kill cancer cells and stop its spread. At the same time, they can detoxify the body io] On the Brandt Grape fast, patients consume only grapes or the juices derived from whole, fresh grapes, for 12 hours of the day. During the other 12 hours, patients only drink water, Itis vitally important that patients who follow this diet avoid chlorinated water and fluoridated water. Chlorine and fluorine can negate the positive effects of this diet. Distilled water does not contain essential minerals such as potassium and so itis not acceptable to drink distilled water whilefollowing the Brandt Grape Cureeither. Drink only pure, filtered water that still contains minerals [1] Politics Johanna Brandt was a South Affican naturopath. She developed the Grape Cure as a rendition of ancient natural remedies that were written about as far back as 1556 [6] According to Quackwatch, in 1965, 1971, 1974, and 2000, the American Cancer Society reviewed Brandt's Grape Cure, but claimed to find no evidence of its benefit against human cancer or any other disease, But then again, the American Cancer Society maintains a number of conflicts of interest in The Cancer Industry. ACS has close ties to the cancer drug industry and the mammography industry. The ACS receives financial support from the pesticide industry, the petrochemical industry, the biotech industry, the cosmetics industry, and the junk food industry ‘These industries are exactly those which have been most implicated as causal agents in the development of cancer. As with most of the other mainstream “anti-cancer” organizations that appear to have altruistic motivations, the ACS actually profits from the development of cancer and patients’ willingness to undergo conventional cancer treatments (chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery) even though the cure rate for these treatments is low for most types of cancer [6][7] ‘The American Cancer Society along with the National Cancer Institute focus exclusively on cancer research for the diagnosis and chemical treatment of cancer. They remain mute in regard to how chemical exposures can spur the development of cancer [7] According to Dr. Samuel Epstein: Giant corporations, which profited handsomely while they polluted air, water; the workplace, and food with a wide range of carcinogens, remain greatly comforted by the silence of the ACS This silence reflected a complex of mindsets fixated on diagnosis treatment, and basic genetic research, together with ignorance, indifference, and even hostility to prevention” [7] ‘Not surprisingly, the incidence of cancer over the past decades has escalated approximately parallel to its increased finding” [7] Quackwatch also notes that the American Cancer Society acknowledges that some of the chemicals in grapes (resveratrol and proanthocynadins) are being studied for their “possible preventive effects”. The ACS however downplays the potential value of the Brandt Cure [6] in an effort to steer patients back toward conventional treatment options. In other words, these substances that occur naturally in grapes may be able to be chemically manipulated into pharmaceuticals that can be sold by the pharmaceutical industry for a much higher cost than what people would pay for grapes to do the Brandt Grape Cure [6][7]Financial donations to the American Cancer Society are allotted primarily to numerous well-paid executives. Only a smell amount of each donation goes toward “cancer research” [7] Given this organization’s profile, it isn’t surprising that the ACS does not endorse the Brandt Grape Cure. An effective, affordable cure for cancer would eliminate the need for an organization such as this Safety and Effectiveness ‘The Brandt Grape Cure, by rotating between 12 hours of water-fasting followed by 12 hours of grape-fasting is able to “trick” cancer cells. During the water-fast, cancer cells get hungry for sugars. When the patient finally eats and consumes only grapes, the cancer cells must consume the grape sugars along with the following other substances that are poisonous to the cancer cells (but not poisonous to healthy cells) [1] Resveratrol Selenium Lycopene Lutein, Lactrile/Amygdalin/Vitamin B17 (located in the seeds of the grapes) Beta-carotene Ellagic acid Catechin Gallic acid Caffeic acid and/or ferulic acid Prerostilbene Quercetin Oligomeric proanthocyanidins or pycnogenol [1][5] metabolize sugar differently than healthy cells. His research showed that c far more glucose molecules than healthy cells which causes them to have an aci potash are plentiful in grapes, As such, grapes alkalize the acidic cancer cells which causes the cells to either become healthy again or die. The cancer cells’ flawed cellular metabolism is one ofthe mechanisms, along with the substances listed above, that makes the Brandt Grape Cure so effective [1][4] How the Brandt Grape Cure Is Administered Johanna Brandt's original instructions have been modified by Webster Kehr of CancerTutor.com to tae into account some of the changes that have taken place since the 1920’s when the Brandt cure was developed. For example, in the United States, nutrients in the soil have been depleted to a point where fruits and vegetables (including grapes) that are grown there are less nourishing Also, pre-packaged grape juice has, by law, been pasteurized, which destroys the enzymes necessary to properly digest the grapes down to the most important constituents. And all grape juice, including organic grape juice has been mixed with chlorinated water. The chlorine canbreakdown many of the essential phytonutrients that play an important role in making this cure work. As a result, it’s recommended that patients who follow this protocol consume primarily whole grapes [1][21[3]14] For 12 hours of every 24-hour period, the patient must fast and drink only water. During the other 12 hours, the patient consumes only grapes [1] ‘The Original Brandt Grape Cure consisted of four basic stages Stage 1 -7 days to 8 weeks During this stage, the patient detoxifies. It is during this stage that most of the weight loss occurs. When the weight stabilizes, itis time for the patient to move on to the next stage [1][4] Stage 2 - Continue with this stage until all cancer symptoms are gone [1] During this stage, grapes are still the primary food eaten by the patient, but the patient can gradually re-introduce the following foods, one type at each meal and something different every day: Fresh fruits Tomatoes Sour Milk (in the 1920's Brandt herself recommended using sour milk, but milk is no longer arecommended part of this diet because milk today often contains hormones. And because milk is pasteurized it also no longer can be properly digested) © Cottage cheese [1][4] ‘After 1 week to 10 days of following this diet, different combinations of fruit and sour milk can be consumed at every other meal [1][4] Stage 3 (Raw Food Diet Stage) — During this stage, patients can eat any food that can be consumed uncooked/raw. These foods include Vegetables Salads Fruits ‘Nuts Honey Extra Virgin Olive oil Patients begin anormal day during this stage of the treatment by eating grapes.© Stage 4 (Lifelong Diet) This stage lasts indefinitely. During this stage, there may be a recurrence of the cancer if the patient didn’t stay on the Stage 1 and Stage 2 part of the diet long enough. During Stage 4, patients eat 3 meals a day between 8:00 AM and 8:00 PM (maintaining the 12 hour fast) 1e4 Possible Negative Effects ‘The Grape Cure is not appropriate for diabetics without modifications.

Patients who follow this diet consume vegetable juices and herbal teas for 42 days Breuss Therapy is not recommended for patients who have been treated for cancer using conventional methods such as radiation or chemotherapy. Itis also not recommended for Stage IV patients or patients with aggressive cancers such as pancreatic cancer. It can be a valuable cancer diet to follow for patients with Stage I, II, or III cancers. Detailed Introduction Rudolf Breuss was a self-educated naturopathic healer from Austria bom in 1899. His whole goal in life was to find a gentle, effective treatment for cancer and other diseases. He wanted to find treatments that were less cruel than those offered by conventional medicine, Through trial and error, Breuss discovered the healing value of fresh fruit and vegetable juices and wrote a book about his findings [2][3] ‘The Breuss Total Cancer Treatment is a special diet that patients must follow for 42 days. Breuss’ experience taught him that 42 days was the ideal amount of time to fast using this protocol, The juice fast includes fruits, vegetables and herbs taken in liquid form. The diet was designed by Breuss to starve cancer cells by preventing them from getting any solid food proteins. As the cancer cells die, patients detoxify at the same time. The Breuss Diet does not harm normal, healthy cells (1][2][3] ‘While Breuss believed that his diet worked because it deprived cancer cells of proteins, in fact the vegetables he recommends consuming contain little to no glucose, the primary food source for cancer cells. As such, it’s likely that this cancer diet works for reasons other than what Breuss theorized, namely that the cancer cells are starved of sugar/fuel while the patient is on the diet 1e4 Politics‘When Breuss was in his 80’s he was taken to court in Austria by a medical fratemity who viewed his treatment methods as too simplistic and inexpensive. His defense lawyer, who had been cured by Breuss, presented a large group of cured patients as witnesses to attest to the success of the treatment and Breuss was acquitted. The Austrian president Rudolf Kirchschlaeger intervened on Breuss’ behalf [3] Safety and Effectiveness Rudolf Breuss was a self-taught naturopathic practitioner whose sole desire was to help people recover from cancer. He wrote the book, The Breuss Cancer Cure to propagate his treatment methods for treating cancer and over 45,000 cancer patients have reported being cured using Breuss’ approach. Many of these patients sought out Breuss’ Cancer Treatment because conventional medicine had failed and doctors had given up hope on them. The book has been translated into 5 different languages and over 900,000 copies have been sold [1][2] How Breuss Therapy Is Administered Breuss’ theory was that cancer cells can only live on the protein of solid food. When deprived of this protein, the cancer cells die, leaving healthy cells intact. Patients are therefore told to drink nothing but vegetable juices and herbal teas for 42 days on this diet. The maximum amount of ingested vegetable juice is 500 mL per day [1][4] Permissible Ingredients for the Liquid Diet The liquid diet consists of the following 55% red beet root 20% carrots 20% celery root 3% raw potato (optional except for with liver cancer patients) 2% Chinese radishes [1][3] Permissible Herbal Teas ‘There were three herbal teas that Breuss permitted patients to drink during the fast © Sage Tea (which includes the following ingredients in a specific ratio—can be consumed throughout the entire 42 days) Sage (Salvia officinalis) St. John’s Wort (Hypericum perforatum) Peppermint (Mentha piperita) Balm (Melissa officinalis)+ Kidney Tea — (which includes the following ingredients in a specific ratio—should be consumed during the first 3 weeks only) Horsetail (Equisetum arvense) Stinging nettle (Uitica dioica) Knotgrass (Polygonum aviculare) St. John’s Wort (Hypericum perforatum) © Cranesbill Tea (includes Red Cranesbill or Geranium robertianum—patients should only consume a % cup of the cold tea per day [4] All teas should be consumed without sugar [4] The above vegetables, when consumed raw, as juices, contain antioxidants and living enzymes that promote general good health [3] Cancer Tutor, a website that disseminates valuable information about altemative cancer treatments, recommends “supercharging” the Breuss Diet by adding the following treatments to this protocol © Filtered green tea © Filtered Essiac Tea © Protocel (this treatment is also done separately from all other treatments)[1] ‘As soon as the 42-day vegetable juice/herbal tea fast has ended, CancerTutor recommends taking ahigh-quality nutritional supplement to quickly rebuild nutrients that were lost during the fast ‘The primary danger associated with the fast is that patients will not receive appropriate levels of essential nutrients while adhering to the diet. Patients who follow this diet should therefore order one of the nutritional superfoods/supplements listed below and have these ready and waiting on day 42, when the fast ends [1][4] Recommended products include: Tahitian Noni Juice + XanGo Mangosteen © Body Flex AM [1] Resources [1] Cancer Tutor (2018).

The first mention of an enema was made in ancient Egypt where pharaohs regarded enemas as essential for good health Each pharaoh had a “Guardian of the Anus” to keep the southem border safe from invaders. The ancient Greeks were similarly preoccupied with rectal and colonic cleanliness. In these cultures, colonic procedures such as hydrotherapy and enemas were considered somewhat sacred for their general health-conferring properties Anumber of the cancer diets in this book require patients to use coffee enemas specifically citing the fact that these treatments can spur bile production, detoxify the liver, and clean fecal impactions out of the lower colon. The coffee enema can enhance the body’s ability to absorb nutrients while detoxifying the liver so that the liver can continue to remove toxins throughout the healing process. Colonic hydrotherapy carries some risk of bowel perforation and mineral imbalance, Patients need to choose their colonic hydrotherapist carefullyCoffee Enemas Coffee enemas are a major part of multiple cancer protocols, including the Gerson Protocol, the Gonzalez Protocol, and the Budwig Protocol. The use of coffee enemas helps clear out toxins lodged in the intestines and the digestive system as well as those released by tumors to help eliminate pain and discomfort for cancer patients [1]. Coffee enemas can help patients manage their cancer as well as provide a lasting strategy for overall wellbeing and gut health 2 Politics Coffee enemas and other kinds of enemas have been used in cultures across the world for thousands of years. The Native American tribes used organic coffee beans to create enemas to use as a liver purifier, while the Dead Sea Scrolls (most likely written around the time of Jesus) male mention of the use of daily enemas for the maintenance of overell well-being. Cultures including the Greeks, Romans, Hindus, Chinese, and Sumerians also have records regarding the use of enemas for health and healing. Enemas were in common use in modem American culture as well until the 20th century when they started to disappear from use [2] ‘When performed correctly, coffee enemas are a safe and effective way to alkalize the body. Cancer cells thrive in an acidic environment and drinking coffee acidifies the body. But rectal coffee enemas have the opposite effect, creating amore alkaline environment, As a result, coffee enemas can cause tumor regression while detoxifying the liver [1][3] Safety and Effectiveness Coffee enemas help the body process and remove toxins more efficiently during the detoxification process, They help the lymphatic fluids transport toxins out of the body 2-3 times faster than normal, thus speeding up and smoothing out the detox process for cancer patients ‘Additionally, coffee enemas help eliminate toxins by stimulating the liver and gallbladder to filter toxins out and produce enough bile to maintain proper digestive function, Coffee enemas are paired with different cancer protocols frequently because of this ability for them to clear out the toxins that the body purges when patients follow dietary protocols or cancer treatments that release toxins as the body restores itself to a normal state [1]According to Mike Vrentas from the Independent Cancer Research Foundation, coffee enemas are capable of eliminating pain caused by cancer as well. The pain thet cancer patients experience is a result of the toxins that cancer cells release when they die and start decomposing, Tumors are composed of an outer layer of living, growing cancer cells that cover a core of dead and dying cancer cells that release toxins. These toxins cause the patient pain. Because coffee enemas eliminate toxins, this pain can be reduced or completely eliminated with enema use [1] ‘As with other cancer protocols, such as the Gonzalez Protocol, coffee enemas alter pH. the alkalinity and acidity in the body. Using coffee enemas increases the alkalinity of the body, making it an inhospitable environment for cancer cells, which prefer a more acidic environment. It’s important to note, however, that drinking coffee can increase acidity, thus creating an environment that would support cancer cell growth [1] Unhealthy diets and the absorption of toxins into the digestive system can result in the development of mucoid plaques in the digestive tract. This mucoid plaque traps food and creates an ideal living environment for parasites. The food that gets trapped rots and releases toxins into the bloodstream, which then causes the liver to become overwhelmed with toxin processing activities. Coffee enemas can help remove this mucoid plaque buildup to lessen the body’s toxic load and improve digestion and nutrient absorption [2] Besides lessening the liver’s toxin processing requirements, coffee enemas work in the liver by stimulating the production of glutathione. Glutathione can preserve cell DNA and reduce the chances of cellular damage occurring, It can also help remove the toxic waste in cells. Green coffee beans have specifically been noted for their effectiveness in producing glutathione in the body when used within the context of an enema, with up to @ 600% increase in glutathione production in the liver and a 700% in the small intestine. [2] Coffee enemas have numerous benefits, but there are a few noted side effects of this treatment that patients should keep in mind. Coffee enemas may result in © intestinal cramping © loss of appetite © fever (a common symptom of a Herzheimer reaction) © electrolyte imbalance © diarhea Persistent side effects like these can lead to dehydration, circumstances [2] ynstipation, and infection under some How Coffee Enemas Are Administered Coffee enemas can be administered at home or with the guidance of a healthcare professional According to the Truth About Cancer website, individuals with cancer or other severe diseases may do up to 4 coffee enemas per day. Healthy individuals may benefit from weekdy enemas to cleanse out toxins in the intestines and the rest of the body that may have built up during theweek. People who are allergic to coffee may consider using undiluted, raw apple cider vinegar or green juice in place of coffee. Organic teas like green tea can also be used [2] ‘The type of coffee used in coffee enemas is important. Organic, light roast ground coffee is recommended because it has alower number of contaminants. It’s also important to use purified water (not regular tap water, which can contain chlorine) when brewing the coffee. To administer coffee enemas at home, pour 3-4 cups of boiling water over 3 tablespoons of organic ground coffee and then letiit simmer for 15 minutes, Allow the coffee to cool before straining using cheesecloth or a fine sieve. Pour the strained coffee into an enema kit and take it to the bathroom. One should lie on their right side in the fetal position to administer the enema. Individuals should try to hold the coffee in for 10-15 minutes [2] In addition to being a remedy or accompanying method in cancer protocols, coffee enemas may also improve energy levels (mentally and physically), mood, and prevent bloating along with the reduction of toxicity in the entire body [2] Other Important Information The Gerson Institute in Tijuana, MX and the Gerson Centre in Budapest, Hungary offer guidance and treatment using the Gerson Method to those who are interested in using coffee enemas to treat and manage their cancer. This is a link to information regarding the two different Gerson clinics: https://gerson.org/gerpress/dlinics/ ‘The Budwig Center in Malaga Spain offers guidance for coffee enemas as well. They also offer the Budwig Treatment, homeopathy, biomagnetism, and other therapies. The following is a link to the Center's website: https://www.budwigcenter.com, Coffee enemas are often used in conjunction with other therapies because of their ability to support and facilitate the effectiveness of these other treatments. Nutritional protocols in particular are frequently paired with coffee enemas. Resources [1] NA. (2017). Coffee Enema.

Colon hydrotherapy is a helper-therapy that is not meant to be used as a stand-alone cancer treatment. Rather, the main purpose of colon hydrotherapy for cancer patients is to hasten detoxification of the body and enhance autrient absorption. Detailed Introduction Colon hydrotherapy is used to cleanse the colon of toxins and gas as well as accumulated fecal matter and deposits of mucus. Itis a gentle treatment that’s more effective than enemas because the cleansing protocol is used to treat the whole colon. Colonic hydrotherapy is ahelper-therapy for cancer patients that is typically used in conjunction with other treatment options. It helps cancer patients detoxify as cancer cells are dying, which can speed up the healing process and diminish pain due to cancer [1] ‘When someone who is seriously ill, such as a cancer patient, becomes constipated this can lead to a build-up of toxins in the body. By cleansing the colon, patients can avoid constipation and remove toxins quickly. Cleansing the colon can then in tum, allow the liver to be detoxified more efficiently. Cleansing the colon allows the patient to get rid of built-up wastes that have been stored. Impacted fecal matter is rehydrated and removed while digestive organs are optimized to encourage normal bowel functioning [1][2] The colon contains beneficial bacteria that play an important role in pH balance, immunity, and nutrient absorption. A well-functioning large intestine plays an important role in general health and well-being, but not everyone needs a colonic in order to achieve good gut health. Typically, cancer patients who are not having at least one bowel movement per day would be most likely to benefit from colon hydrotherapy [3] Safety and EffectivenessColonic hydrotherapy has been used since 1500 B.C. to enhance health. This procedure is more effective than enemas because colon hydrotherapy cleanses the entire colon, not just the descending colon [1][3] Colon hydrotherapy can relieve the following symptoms Appetite changes Brain fog Low energy Sluggishness/lethargy Initability [3] ‘When waste products build up in the large intestine, mucus and bacteria can ferment in the colon, This fermentation process results in the build-up of toxins that are released back into the bloodstream, When waste products build-up in the body and the patient is not having regular bowel movements, this can lead to poor nutrient absorption as well which also can lead to lethargy and low energy levels [3] How Colon Hydrotherapy Is Administered Colon hydrotherapy is performed using sterile, single-use equipment. A gentle flow of water is introduced into the large intestine via the rectum, Although the amount of water varies depending on the patient, up to 16 gallons of water can be used during one colonic hydrotherapy session. Often, colon hydrotherapists will perform a light extemal massage over the abdomen to promote the removal of toxins from the colon [1][3] Possible Negative Effects Side Effects Side effects of colon hydrotherapy could include: Vomiting, nausea, stomach cramping Dizziness Dehydration Mineral imbalance Depletion of helpful bowel flora Kidney problems Bowel perforation [4] Contraindications Patients with the following health conditions may be more at risk for experiencing side effects 1) Recent bowel surgery2) Diverticulitis 3) Severe hemorthoids 4) Rectal tumors or tumors in the colon 5) Ulcerative colitis 6) Crobn’s disease 7) Cardiovascular issues or heart disease 8) Kidney disease [4] Resources [1] Colon Cleanse Treatment Clinic (2018).

offices and clinics that preach the virtues of pharmaceuticals above nutrition. And doctors lack training in the proper use of herbs, vitamins, and minerals, They know little about the value of supplements because doctors aren’t taught anything about nutrition in medical school. Sometimes, future doctors are required to take one nutrition class as, part of their undergraduate degree, but many of them don’t even have to take one class on the subject in order to become a doctor ‘The value of supplements, vitamins, and minerals in combating cancer should not be underestimated. These substances are widely available and accessible. Most people can find what they need in health food stores or online, But while Americans and Europeans have been taught to believe in the magic of prescription drugs, often, the most accessible “medicines” that are the most available to us without a prescription have the most potential to promote healing The system of medicine that’s most familiar to English-speaking patients is one where patients must go to a doctor in order to receive a “magical prescription for health”. This prescription is written down and then transported with care to the pharmacy where the patient often pays dearly for a potion, usually in pill-form, We've been taught to believe that this prescription-based formulais the magic one: the one that leads to health. But how often does prescription medicine actually heal people? ‘The statistics regarding the number of people who are healed by prescription drugs are hard to find because pharmaceuticals are not meant to heal people. On the other hand, it’s nat hard to find stats on the number of deaths that result from prescription drug mistakes, About 106,000 people in the United States died from prescription drug mishaps in 2016 according to the CDC. So maybe prescription-based magic isn’t that magical after all On the other hand, a deficiency of vitamins and minerals can lead to all kinds of agony. A deficiency of vitamins and minerals can be insidious and hard to identify. Think of scurvy, the vitamin C deficiency that once plagued sailors. No one could figure out what was wrong with the sailors, Or I should say, almost everyone was confused about what was wrong, Several people came forward to offer their view that oranges or a tea made of pine needles could heal those afflicted with scurvy, but alas, the medical establishment was slow to accept the new theory about this horrible disease, So sailors continued to suffer needlessly for many years even though the cure had already been identified by a few perceptive people. Today, the same ignorance in the establishment still exists except that all of us have access to the information we need to heal ourselves at our fingertips if we're just willing to do the research Today, some of the most innovative thinkers in science and medicine have realized that vitamin and mineral deficiencies occur along a spectrum. People with a mild vitamin C deficiency may not develop scurvy, but their immune system may become compromised and their gums might bleed whenever they brush their teeth. Correcting the vitamin C deficien help the body correct other nutritional imbalances. Sometimes the profound healing effects of correcting nutritional deficiencies is surprisingBoth vitamin B17 (laetrile) and iodine have been implicated as extremely important in the prevention and treatment of cancer. In fact, many experts believe that cancer is primarily a deficiency of these two nutrients. But nutrition is complicated. Ifyou ascribe to the Vitamin B17 or Iodine Deficiency Theory of Cancer, don’t be fooled into thinking that you can take one or the other (or even both) of these nutrients to cure cancer and do nothing else to bring about healing. Both vitamin B17 and iodine need other nutrients like zinc and vitamin E to be present in the body in sufficient quantities in order to be absorbed and function properly in the body. In some cases, if your body isn’t properly nourished, it won't be able to make use of certain essential nutrients So supplements must be approached with studious attention. They need to be balanced, taken at appropriate times during the day, and combined with sound nutrition. Pancreatic enzymes are an essential part of healthy digestion and research has shown that most ofus are deficient in these enzymes because we consume large quantities of animal proteins Pancreatic enzymes were used in the early 1900’s to cure cancer, but due to the emerging power of big pharmaceutical companies, certain organizations, and wealthy individuals with a stake in keeping people sick, pancreatic enzyme therapy never received the attention it deserved. Recent research has show that pancreatic enzymes are not only released into the digestive system but they also circulate throughout the body via the blood. These enzymes, when we have them in sufficient quantities, have the power to digest the outer coating of cancer cells to mae the cancer cells vulnerable to the immune system, And in addition to curing cancer, these enzymes give the pancreas a boost to alleviate diabetes and sometimes psoriasis and other diseases as wellDr. Matthias Rath’s Cellular Solution Quick Summary Dr. Rath’s Cellular Solution is a supplementation protocol that’s based on the assumption that all disease, including cancer, is caused by deficiencies. This particular supplementation protocol uses amino acids, vitamins, and bioflavonoids. Although Dr. Rath didn’t specify a particular diet for cancer patients to follow, he did encourage his patients to adopt an anti-cancer diet of some Jkind while using the treatment. Detailed Introduction Dr. Matthias Rath is a leader in the development of cellular medicine [2]. Cellular medicine abides by the principle that most of the body's diseases, including cancer, are caused by deficiencies in vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and other nutrients. This is a concept that numerous alternative cancer specialists espouse [5] Dr. Rath’s Cellular Solution is designed to stop cancer from spreading and metastasizing through the use of particular combinations of nutrients. Dr. Rath believed that by stopping the spread of cancer and keeping it localized in the body that the body’s natural immunity would be significantly more likely to be able to fight off the disease. The Solution works to stop the tion of toxic enzymes released by cancer cells that break down the collagen matrix holding the cells back from growing out of control. The enzyme molecules released by cancer cells can “cut through” tissues and collagen that surround cells and hold them in place. As a result of this “cutting through,” cancer cells are able to make their way into the bloodstream to metastasize by making small cuts in the blood vessel walls through which they can then pass. Without the ability to produce these enzymes that cut through collagen and tissues, the cancer cells are unable to maneuver themselves into strategic locations via the bloodstream where they can grow and spread [3] sec Lysine, LProline, Vitamin C, and Epigallocatechin Dr. Rath’s Cellular Solution is composed of the amino acids L-Lysine and L-Proline, vitamin C, and epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG, this is a bioflavonoid component found in green tea). The combination of these components in addition to other cancer protocol basics (such as an anti-cancer diet) makes up Dr. Rath’s cancer cure. Dr. Rath discovered that the combination of L-Lysine and vitamin C stopped the action of proteases (proteins that breale down proteins and peptides) secreted by cancer cells. He also realized that, when this mix of L-Lysine and vitamin C was combined with L-Proline and EGCG, the proteases’ destruction of collagen (which allowed the spread of cancer cells) could be stopped. Additionally, the L-Lysine works as an enzyme blocker to make it so the cancer enzymes released into the body aren’t able to attach to enzyme attachment sites on collagen and tissue. This severely limits (and even completely eliminates) the cancer cells’ ability to break through collagen and tissue to reach the bloodstream where they'd be able to travel to and infect other areas of the body [3][4]In the Rath Solution, vitamin C plays a role in strengthening the body’s immune system and its ability to fight cancer. Vitamin C is also significant in the construction of collagen, making it possible for the body to start working to repair areas where cancer cells have destroyed collagenltissue. Then, the EGCG is capable of supporting vitamin C’s role in the body as well as working to prevent cellular DNA changes (vitamin C is anti-mutagenic). The EGCG also works to stop the development of new cancer cells and their metastases. Detox from cancer is aided also by EGCG, which has antioxidant properties and can “select and modify phase I and phase II metabolic enzyme processes” to provide for optimal digestion and removal of toxins and dead cells [4] Politics Dr. Matthias Rath’s cancer cure is illegal to market in Switzerland, The country’s Study Group for Complementary and Alternative Methods in Cancer has claimed that the treatment had no legitimacy. Similarly in South Affica, the Dr. Rath Foundation was required to stop advertising its products as a cure for cancer and HIV (despite numerous successful recoveries by individuals with these diseases). Various organizations, such as the Health4Us Foundation in Emeryville, California, have attempted to bring Dr. Rath’s treatment to light for the public to use as a legitimate cure, however major organizations like the British Advertising Standards Authority and national governmental organizations have pushed down information about this treatment (ut) The Bill Henderson Protocol has been successful at helping a number of people recover from cancer using a supplementation protocol that’s very similar to the Rath Cellular Solution. ‘The pharmaceutical industry in and beyond the United States is currently seeking to implement a global ban on natural medicine techniques and practices by “abusing” the United Nations Codex Alimentarius Commission. Dr. Rath has been a vocal advocate against the creation of this global ban [2] Safety and Effectiveness Dr. Rath’s Cellular Solution is particularly effective against newly diagnosed cancer patients suffering from tissue-related cancers that are localized and not spreading quickly. Advanced cancer patients will find that this cancer treatment is an especially valuable supplementary therapy for any cancer protocol to help curb the spread of cancer during the recovery process ‘The treatment has been shown to be effective even on difficult cancers such as bone cancer and brain cancer, in addition to being effective on heart disease (when the EGCG component of the solution is removed) [3] According to one source, Dr. Rath’s Solution doesn’t have an effect on leukemia The same source notes that more EGCG is necessary to stop the action of colon cancer cells than is necessary to stop breast cancer or melanoma cells. Thus, the formulas for different cancers vary [4]Patients should note that when EGCG is taken late in the evening it may cause mild insomnia [4]. Planning for this possibility accordingly is important, since rest is crucial to recovery. Patients are likely to experience a Herheimer/detox reaction while taking the Cellular Solution, as is common with most cancer treatments/protocols Individuals who are taking medicine to lower their cholesterol would benefit from being observed by a physician or health professional since the Cellular Solution affects the cardiovascular system as well as having an effect on cancer. Cholesterol count will need to be carefully monitored for these patients. Patients who are taking heart/blood-pressure medications will need to be monitored carefully by a holistically-minded physician, who must monitor the effects that these drugs have as the patient follows this altemative treatment. The physician may help the patient decide when and how much to step down off the drugs as the body begins to regain its natural cardiovascular strength [4] How to Use Dr. Matthias Rath’s Cellular Solution Dr. Rath’s Solution usually consists of the following components Vitamin C - ~2000mg L-Lysine - ~2000mg L-Proline - ~700mg (if proline capsules are used, the patient should take one 500mg capsule 4x/day) © EGCG -~250mg (the Now" brand has 200mg of EGCG in its 400mg green tea extract supplement) © Patients may drink green tea to obtain this EGCG as well. For example, 1 cup of regular green tea contains 20-25mg EGCG from infused leaves, o Matcha tea contains ~120mg EGCG in one cup of tea Matcha may also be added to cold food or blender recipes (smoothies, salads, raw veggie dishes, etc.) © NOTE: Although tea may be used to obtain EGCG, patients should observe that heating tea may reduce the potency of the EGCG [4] ‘The amounts below are recommended as daily values for cancer patients Vitamin C - ~6000mg L-Lysine - ~6000mg L-Proline - ~3000mg EGCG - ~1000mg [7] Other Important Information Itis recommended thet patients obtain pharmaceutical grade ascorbic acid powder to use as their vitamin C while using this treatment. This is especially true since patients will be taking high doses. Non-pharmaceutical grade vitamin C supplementation may contain extra minerals thet create absorption problems or an ascorbate compound that could interfere with or minimize the effectiveness of the treatment [4]Dr. Rath has written two books and participated in the writing of a few others as well.

Detailed Introduction Vitamin Ais actually a group of related substances that are collectively known as “retinoids”. A deficiency of this vitamin can cause night-blindness, xerophthalmia, and a decreased resistance to infection. Epidemiological studies have shown that the risk of certain types of cancer is higher among people with a low dietary intake of vitamin A [5] Vitamin A and retinol influence normal growth, vision, reproduction, skin and mucous membrane health, cellular differentiation, development proliferation, and normal cell death (apoptosis), which is one of the reasons way this vitamin is so important in the treatment of cancer. Vitamin A and the retinoids (a class of compounds that are chemically related to vitamin A) play an essential biological role in a variety of physiological processes. Researchers in diverse disciplines such as dermatology, embryology, and cancer have developed interest in the value of vitamin A and the retinoids in promoting the proliferation of healthy cells and tissues HILILSIES] Studies have shown that all-trans retinoic acids (which are vitamin A-related compounds) are able to differentiate between malignant cancer cells in patients with Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia to induce remission of the disease. Research has shown an 80% remission rate from ‘Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia using all-trans retinoic acids as a stand-alone treatment [3][4] Scientists have shown thet the retinoids could be used therapeuticelly to prevent and play arole in treating cancer. Animal studies have shown that vitamin A and beta-carotene can boost cancer patients’ immune response, slow tumor growth, and decrease the size of established tumors [alls]Vitamin A is found in orange fruits and vegetables such as the following Carrots Pumpkins Butternut squash Cantaloupes Mangos Spinach Broccoli Apricots [5] Politics Rather than promoting the value of naturally-occurring vitamin A and retinoids in foods, pharmaceutical companies developed a synthetic version of vitamin A known as Fenretinide (N-4-hydroxyphenyl-retinamide or 4-HPR). It was developed as alow-dose chemo-preventative agent for breast cancer, prostate cancer, and bladder cancer. This drug can cause vitamin A deficiency by competing with vitamin A in the body [9] Safety and Effectiveness Studies have shown that beta-carotene can increase the production of human immunity fa such as monocytes, lymphocytes, and macrophages which enhances the immune system’s cancer-fighting abilities (5][71[3] tors How Vitamin A Is Administered Both vitamin A and beta-carotene (a vitamin A precursor) are fat soluble so patients should take vitamin A supplements with foods that contain fat [5] The Binzel Diet recommends that patients take 125,000 1.U of vitamin A per day [6] Possible Negative Effects Serious side effects from taking vitamin A are rare, The following are some of the less serious side effects patients may experience when taking high doses of vitamin A Headache Imitability Itchiness Dizziness Desquamation Perioral dermatitis [5] Extremely high doses of vitamin A could cause liver damage [5]Patients with kidney disorders as well as pregnant women should talk to their doctor before taking vitamin A supplements [5] Fenretinide ‘While side effects from natural vitamin A supplementation is rare, the side effects caused by Fenretinide include the following Night-blindness Inability to see in dim light Dry skin Nausea Vomiting Diarrhea Abdominal cramping Hepatic dysfunction [9] Because Fenretinide is a synthetic version of vitamin A, it competes with naturally-o vitamin A in the body to cause a vitamin A deficiency in patients who use this drug [9] Other Important Information take to avoid side effect Beta-carotene is aless-toxic form of vitamin A that patients c taking high doses of vitamin A [5] Some research has shown that there is an increased risk of lung cancer and lung cancer recurrence among patients who smoke and take high doses of vitamin A[5] Resources [1] Doldo, E, Costanza, G., Agostinelli, S, Tarquini, C., Ferlosio, A, Arcuri, G, Passeri-Maria, D,, Scioli, G, Orlandi, A.

Vitamin B17 should be a vital part of nearly all cancer protocols unless its use could interfere with the treatment protocol (for example, Protocel should be used as a strictly stand-alone cancer treatment—see below for more information about protocols that can safely incorporate the use of vitamin B17). In cases where vitamin B17 supplementation isn’t part of the initial cancer treatment protocol, patients should consider supplementing with this vitamin as soon as the protocol ends - Detailed Introduction. Laetrile is perhaps the most unrighteously scandalized cancer treatment currently known to man. ‘When laetnile is used as a cancer treatment prior to the use of chemotherapy, radiation, or surgery, it’s effectiveness at treating cancer approaches 100%. This is because laetrle is considered by experts to be a vitamin, A deficiency of this vitamin causes a variety of symptoms including cancer. Relieving the deficiency by providing the patient with laetrile in the form of an LV. (which is more powerful than taking it orally) or amygdelin in the form of apricot kemels ess powerful, but beneficial to everyone whether they have cancer or not) or specially formulated capsules of vitamin B17 gets rid of the symptoms (such as cancer) that are associated with the deficiency [3] Laetrile, also known as vitamin B17 or amygdalin is derived from the extract of an apricot kemel (the keemnel is located in the pit of the apricot). These three substances (Laetrle, vitamin B17, and amygdalin) are related, but slightly different from each other. Amygdalin is the natural, raw substance that comes from the seeds or kernels of many fruits including apricots, but itis also present in lima beans, clover, and sorghum. Vitamin B17 is aname that was coined by Dr. Eugene Krebs, Jr. He was the one who first discovered amygdalin and since this substance is naturally-occurring, non-toxic, water-soluble, and able to be metabolized by humans, he referred tot as a vitamin, Laetrile is different from amydalin/vitamin B17 (the raw substance found in foods) because laetrle is a concentrated, purified form of amygdalin. Laetrile therapy is one of the most popular and well-known altemative cancer treatments because itis easy to use and it’s effective when used in high enough doses, butitis also one of the most controversial altemativecancer treatments because offts high potential to cure cancer. High-quality laetrile is often administered to patients in high doses along with special nutritional supplements and a cancer diet, Laetrile targets and kills cancer cells while boosting the immune system at the same time (ue) Dr. Harold Manners, a developmental biologist, tested laetrile in the 1970's to find out how it worked to kill cancer cells. He found that lactrile contains a deadly cyanide that is released only when it comes into contact with cancer cells. Cancer cells release an enzyme called beta-glucoside that allows the laetrile to release its cyanide. The beta-glucosidase un-tethers two potentially toxic substances: benzaldehyde and cyanide. Although in the past, scientists thought that it was the cyanide thet killed cancer cells, today, scientists believe that the benzaldehyde may be the substance most toxic to the cancer cells, Another enzyme known as rhodanese found in normal tissues, neutralizes excess cyanide so that it can be excreted in the urine and doesn’t affect healthy tissues [1][2][3] In addition to the targeted cancer-poison that it emits, laetrile works to fight cancer by boosting the immune system too. Cancer cells are covered by a pratein coating that has a negative, white-blood-cell-repelling electric charge. This charge unfortunately wards off white blood cel but laetrile works with pancreatic enzymes to attack the protein coating around cancer cells successfully, adding another layer to its effectiveness [2]. By adding pancreatic enzymes to an anti-cancer protocol involving laetrile, the cancer treatment is made even more effective According to Dr. Antonio Jiminez of the Hope4Cancer Clinic in Tijuana, Mexico, the positive effects of laetrile therapy include © Anti-cancer activity © Analgesialpain control © Overall enhancement of well-being [2] Eating 20 to 40 apricot kemels per day is the recommended dose for patients with cancer, depending on their health history and where the cancer is located. It’s important for cancer patients to receive a high enough dose of laetrile because otherwise, healthy cells might destroy the lactrile (by secreting rhodanese) before it can react with the beta-glucosidase of a cancer cell 2 Politics Laetrile and its effects on cancer created quite a stir at the FDA and in major cancer treatment centers like Sloan-Kettering. While you'd think that something like laetrile would excite these organizations, it was quite the opposite. The FDA keeps a vigilant eye on laetrile to protect the interests of pharmaceutical companies. Sloan-Kettering worked hard to discredit its own research that proved laetrile could cure cancer. It was only by discrediting the research done by Dr. Kanematsu Suguira that Sloan-Kettering was able to protect its private interests in maintaining that cancer can only be “treated” with the standard protocol: surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy [3][5]Dr. Philip Binzel developed a cancer cure diet that he used to effectively treat patients despite the government's attempts to get him to stop. His laetrile diet and treatment plan along with the political difficulties he encountered while treating patients is outlined in his book Alive and Well. One Doctor's Experience With Nutrition in the Treatment of Cancer Patients [13] In the 1970's, Dr. Harold Manners had never encountered any resistance to getting any drug he wanted because of his credentials. He held a controlled substance license with both the state of linois and the federal U.S. government. This license made it so he could get substances like morphine or cocaine to use for research. Dr. Manners had been ordering a wide variety of controlled substances for over 30 years, but when he tried to ortler laetrile (the extract of an apricot pit) from the company Sigma for research, the FDA required an affidavit for the order and required Dr. Manners to promise to never use it on a human being. Later, the FDA required 2 affidavits from Dr. Manners. He had to promise never to use the laetrile on any animals other than his own because veterinarians were having great success curing animals of cancer using laetrile(1] Ina legislature meeting following the publication of toxicity studies that were sent to the National Cancer Institute and Sloan Kettering proving that laetrile is non-toxic even at high doses, Dr. Young, an FDA representative told the senators “Gentlemen, the FDA cannot support the use of laetrile because it is an “unsafe” substance” Dr. Manners responded, “How can you say that? You have my report that itis non-toxic.” Dr. Young: “I didn’t say it was toxic. I said it was unsafe.” ‘The reason why this representative of the FDA was able to decree that lactrile was “unsafe” (though it is non-toxic) is because if a person uses laetrile, they might nof use orthodox therapy (chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery). Therefore, laetrile is “unsafe” to the economic interests of the pharmaceutical and cancer industries. The word “unsafe” is not technically alie. A variety of scare-tactics are still used by the government to make the American public believe that laetrile is a dangerous substance [1] Laetrile is currently banned in the United States though apricot kemels and apricot-kemel pills can be purchased there as nutritional supplements. However, intravenous laetrle therapy is administered legally in Mexico, Germany, and parts of Asia [2] Safety and Effectiveness For over 200 years, laetrile in the form of amygdalin in bitter almonds, has been used in Traditional Chinese Medicine. It has been shown to exert the following effects on the body: © Calms respiratory movement © Anti-tussive (cough suppressant)Anti-asthmatic Promotes the synthesis of pulmonary surfactant Inhibits the activity of pepsin Has a therapeutic effect on chronic gastritis Has a therapeutic effect on gastric ulcers Has analgesic effects Anti-inflammatory properties Causes the apoptosis of cancer cells Improved immune function [6] A large number of studies have shown that amygdalin can play a supporting role in the treatment of the following diseases Cancer Diabetes Atherosclerosis Immune suppression Leprosy, Psoriasis Chronic kidney diseases (6][71[8][9][10] ntific tests run by Dr. Manners on lab animals showed that even after administering 10 times the maximum dose ever given to a human being in any clinic, the lab rats were alive and healthy After four weeks of daily injections, the animals being given laetrile were healthier than the control animals not being given laetrile. Dr. Manners completed toxicity studies to demonstrate that laetrile is non-toxic [1] Laetrile is effective as a cancer cure when administered in tandem with other treatments such as high dose vitamin C vitamin A. diet therapy . . . pancreatic enzyme therapy Vitamin B17 is less effective as a stand-alone cure, Pancreatic enzymes (derived from lentils, peas, papaya, the thymus gland of a rat, and pancreatin from a cow pancreas) break down the outer protein-shell around the cancer cells. Once the outer shell is broken down, the body is able to recognize the cancer as a foreign invader and the immune system (ifit is properly boosted with diet and vitamin therapy) can begin to work. The laetrile goes to work as the immune system is rebuilding. B17 releases cyanide to kill the cancer cells. A number of studies have shown that amygdalin and laetrile have significant anti-tumor properties [1][1 1] There are 1500 foods that contain healing nitrilosides [13]. People regularly consume amygdalin in the following foodsApricot seeds (ocated inside the pit) Blueberries Bitter almonds Grape seeds Apple seeds Strawberries Bean sprouts Plums Spinach Lima beans Peach kemels (located inside the pit) Raspberries Blueberries Strawberries Blackberries Cranbernies Bamboo shoots Macadamia nuts Barley Millet grain Buckwheat flour [2][3] In 1977, over 40 years ago, Newsweek reported that at that time as many as 70,000 Americans had traveled to Mexico for laetrile treatment. Laetrile is also currently legal in Germany and parts of Asia and patients continue to travel en masse to these destinations for laetrile treatment half adecade later because it still isn’t available in the United States [2] How Laetrile Is Administered kernels and Capsules — Oral Administration Patients can consume vitamin B17 as organic, bitter, raw apricot kemels or as capsules. Cancer patients are advised to take four 500 mg tablets per day. The capsules should be taken 30 minutes before meals and once before bedtime for a total daily dose of 2000 mg. If vitamin B17 is being consumed in the form of apricot kernels, the patient is advised to eat 20 to 40 per day, ideally, spreading the dose out over the course of the day such that the patient never eats more kemels at one time than they would if they were eating the whole apricot along with the kemels [2][3] Intravenous Administration A.60 kilogram person should receive an intramuscular injection of 9 to 12 grams of laetrile daily along with 1 million IU of vitamin A and high-dose vitamin C. The vitamin A must be manufactured such that it is highly emulsified and therefore bypasses the liver and goes directly into the lymphatic system. Otherwise, high-dose vitamin A will cause liver damageIntramuscular injections given daily can be painful so this administration route is one of the least favored by patients [1][3] Intravenous laetrile is administered at 3 to 9 grams per day for 6 to 7 days, depending on each individual case. Typically, a laetrile IV drip takes about 30 minutes to administer. Intravenous laetrile is the most preferred administration method [3] Cancer Protocols That Can Incorporate Vitamin B17 It’s important that patients don’t randomly mix laetrile therapy with other cancer treatments because these other treatments could cancel out the positive effects of laetrile. Laetrile can be administered in combination with the following at-home protoc © Cesium Chloride Cellect-Budwig ©. High RF Frequency Protocol © Bob Beck Protocol © Binzel Diet [3] Possible Negative Effects Laetrile appears to be non-toxic, though it is possible to over-indulge on apricot kemels, which can lead to nausea, vomiting, a cherry-red skin color, headache, fever, and lethargy. Cancer patients are advised to consume no more than 40 apricot kemels a day for best results. [2] Laetrile pills should be taken with water right before eating and in conjunction with enzymes such as chymotrypsin and trypsin. While these enzymes allow the laetrile to penetrate cancer cells, they also thin the blood and should only be taken according to the recommended maximum dosage [2][3] Other Important Information Harold Manner Memorial Hospital - Tijuana, Mexico ‘The Harold Manner Memorial Hospital is located in Tijuana, Mexico, just a few miles south of San Diego, California The hospital has been treating cancer patients for 20 years. A course of treatment typically lasts for 3 weeks to 90 days. A custom course of therapy including laetrile IV therapy, detoxification, nutritional and vitamin supplementation, proteolytic enzymes, DMSO, a cancer diet, and rest is prescribed Herold Manner Memorial Hospital http://www manner. com mx/ delrio@telnor net 1-800-433-4962 / 1-800-248-8431Hope4Cancer — Tijuana, Mexico Hope4Cancer is an integrative medicine hospital that offers laetrile therapy: Hope4Cancer https:/fhoped com! 993 /+1-619-669-6511 Oasis of Hope— Tijuana, Mexico Oasis of Hope is another cancer treatment center that offers laetrile therapy: Oasis of Hope http://www oasisofhope com/ 1-888-500-4673 1-619-690-8450 t's important for laetrile therapy to be part of an integrative cancer treatment program that also includes dietary changes, and vitamin supplementation with vitamins such as vitamin C and vitamin A [1][2] ‘Also of interest in the laetrile story is the fact thet all of the men at Sloan-Kettering who protected the financial interests of the pharmaceutical industry by covering up the value of laetrile in treating cancer died of cancer themselves [4] Resources [1] The Cancer Cure Foundation.

American MediaHigh-Dose Vitamin C Quick Summary High-dose vitamin C taken orally is ahelper-therapy that can incorporated safely into certain cancer protocols such as the Binzel Diet and The China Study Diet. There is a limit to how much vitamin C the body can absorb when itis taken orally which is why many patients supplement with intravenous vitamin C to glean the most benefits from this particular therapy. Detailed Introduction Vitamin C is a naturally occurring substance that’s found in food, It’s an antioxidant that plays an important role in making collagen and keeping tissues healthy. When vitamin Cis given intravenously it’s possible for it to reach higher concentrations than what’s possible when vitamin C is taken by mouth [1] Intravenous vitamin C is a therapy that’s typically used in conjunction with other cancer treatments, but vitamin C, when administered in very high doses by IV infusion, can kill cancer cells by itself Intravenous treatment should be administered in a treatment facility under the direction of experienced health practitioners. Cancer cells differ metabolically from normal cells in that their mitochondria produce high levels of redox-active iron molecules. These molecules react with vitamin C to produce hydrogen peroxide. Hydrogen peroxide, in tum can damage the DNA of the cancer cells and their mitochondria which ultimately kills the cancer. The vitamin C treatment is selectively toxic against only the unhealthy cancer cells [2][3] High doses of intravenous vitamin C in cancer patients generally produces few side effects, though some rare, but serious side effects are possible. In mainstream medicine, cancer patients who are given high doses of IV vitamin C in conjunction with chemo and radiation experience an improved quality of life and fewer side effects from the chemotherapy. Studies have shown that IV therapy with high-doses of vitamin C can improve the effectiveness of standard chemotherapy and radiation treatments. The vitamin C seems to slow the progression of the disease [1][2] PoliticsIntravenous vitamin C has not been demonized to the same extent as certain other no-chemo cancer treatments in part because it can be used in tandem with standard treatments s chemotherapy and radiation. As such, high-dose vitamin C is not as big of a threat to pharmaceutical companies and instead, research funding has been made available to demonstrate its efficacy in prolonging the life of patients with glioblastoma and Stage IV lung cancer [2]. The effectiveness at prolonging lifespan even among patients who followed the standard medical model supports the effectiveness of high-dose vitamin C as a cancer treatment that works despite the presence of the highly toxic biological environment produced by chemo and radiation. Two studies done by scientists Creagan and Moertel in 1979 at the Mayo Clinic put a spin on high-dose vitamin C treatment, claiming that it was nearly impossible to produce therapeutic concentration levels. In both of these studies, vitamin C was administered orally, but the medical community was confused by these results so doctors today rarely prescribe intravenous vitamin C to cancer patients thinking that there are few, if any therapeutic benefits to patients [6][8][9] ‘The reason why intravenous vitamin C is used to treat cancer rather than orally administered vitamin C is because vitamin C concentrations can be raised safely to high levels using intravenous administration. It’s difficult to raise the concentration levels to the same extent of by taking vitamin C orally. At high concentration levels, vitamin C is toxic to cancer cells, but beneficial to healthy cells. Vitamin C at high concentrations prevents angiogenesis (or the development of a tumor’s blood supply). As the vitamin accumulates in cancer cells, tumor cells stop growing and inflammation is reduced in the body. Further, patients experience few side effects and adverse events when vitamin C is administered intravenously [3] Safety and Effectiveness Research has shown that intravenous vitamin C is effective against a variety of cancer types, including Lung cancer Brain cancer Colon cancer Pancreatic cancer Ovarian cancer Clinical studies have shown that oral administration of vitamin C at the maximum tolerated dose (18grams/day), produces only a peak plasma concentration of 220 micromoles/Liter. Intravenous administration of the same dose of vitamin C (18 grams/day) can increase plasma concentration. 25 times, Even larger doses (50-100 grams/day) can increase the plasma concentration levels to 14,000 micromoles/Liter. At 1,000 micromoles/Liter, vitamin C is toxic to cancer cells, but not toxic to normal, healthy cells [5][6] ‘Vitamin C treatment was first suggested as a cancer treatment in the 1950's because of its role in collagen production. Since cancer patients are often depleted of vitamin C, scientists believedthat vitamin C would protect normal tissues and by replenishing vitamin C levels, the immune system function would be enhanced [3][7] In one study, scientists observed a four-fold survival rate in terminal cancer patients who were treated with high-dose vitamin C IV’s. The researchers who conducted the study observed a survival rate one-third higher for the patients who were given high-dose vitamin C. For the patients who died during the study, their average survival time was more than 20 times longer than it was for terminal cancer patients who did not receive vitamin C treatments [7] There are rare instances that have been reported where patients with multiple, rapidly proliferating tumors were given high-dose vitamin C, which caused widespread tumor hemorrhage and necrosis that ultimately caused the patient to die. Deaths like these from high-dose vitamin C are rare, but despite their tragic nature, they demonstrate the power of vitamin C to cause cancer cells to die as well as the importance of detoxifying the body thoroughly as part of a treatment protocol [3] How Intravenous Vitamin C Is Administered ‘The half-life of vitamin Cis only 2 hours which is why it has to be administered in high doses via IV, otherwise, when administering vitamin C by mouth, the blood concentration never reaches a high enough level to be beneficial in terms of cancer cells. Clinical trials at the University of lowa in lowa City have examined the effect of giving 800 to 1,000 times the daily recommended dose of vitamin C to brain cancer and lung cancer patients. The research has shown that vitamin C at 20,000 micromoles disrupts cancer cell metabolism in glioblastoma and non-small-cell lung cancer. Most normal adults have about 70 micromoles of circulating vitamin ci] Possible Negative Effects Intravenous vitamin C treatments are generally well tolerated, but some patients may experience side effects such as brief episodes of high blood pressure or dry mouth [2] Other Important information ‘The Nobel Prize winner, Linus Pauling and Dr. Ewen Cameron did a study that showed that 10 grams of vitamin C administered via IV could extend the life of cancer patients six-fold [3] ‘Also of interest is the fact that nine months of high-dose vitamin C treatment via IV costs less than one dose of chemotherapy [2] Clinics That Offer Intravenous High-Dose Vitamin C ‘The Riordan Clinic offers high-dose, intravenous vitamin C treatments in three locations in the United States:The Riordan Clinic — Kansas https: //nordanclinic org! 3100 N.

People rarely develop cancer in the first part of their duodenum where pancreatic juices are dumped into the digestive tract with the risk of cancer increasing as the distance from this location increases. Pancreatic enzymes that aren’t used during digestion are absorbed into the bloodstream and they travel throughout the body, finding cancer cells and dissolving their outer fibrin sheaths. Unfortunately, the typical American diet that includes alot of animal products requires alot of pancreatic enzymes for digestion and that leaves no enzymes for absorption to travel through the rest of the body, searching for cancer cells, Taking pancreatic enzyme supplements can be extremely beneficial as part of a cancer protocol to make cancer cells vulnerable to attack by the immune system. Detailed Introduction Enzymatic cancer therapy is a helper-therapy thet’s usually combined with other cancer treatments. Enzymatic treatments for cancer originate from Dr. John Beard, an embryologist who noted the similarities between pre-embryonic trophoblasts and cancer cells, His theories regarding the similarities between trophoblasts and cancer cells date back to 1906. Essentially, he saw cancerous tumors as false placentas. Dr. Beards thinking was known as the Trophoblast Theory of Cancer. Another piece of information lending credibility to the value of pancreatic enzymes is the fact that cancer almost never occurs in the first segment of the small intestine (the duodenum) where pancreatic juices are secreted via the pancreatic duct. The relative prevalence of cancer increases as one moves further down the digestive tract, away from the region where pancreatic juices are secreted [1][2][21] Dr. Beard believed that enzyme therapy would be a valuable treatment for all types of cancer because pancreatic enzymes have the ability to dissolve the protective protein coating on cancer cells. Medical literature from the early 1900’s documented tumor regression in terminal cancer patients who were treated using enzyme therapy [1][2][3][4][5]. Since that time, cancer research has shown that pancreatic enzymes can break down the protein-coating that normally protects cancer cells from attack by white blood cells and the patient’s own immune system.Throughout the 20" century, most scientists believed that pancreatic enzymes were produced in the pancreas, delivered to the small intestine for use and then deactivated and excreted from the body in the feces. But research has shown that in fact, pancreatic enzymes are re-circulated in a manner similar to how bile salts are recirculated via enterohepatic circulation. Since pancreatic enzymes are among the most difficult biomolecules for the body to manufacture it makes sense that unused pancreatic enzymes would be recirculated in the body [6] ‘The recirculation of pancreatic enzymes is important because their presence in the blood demonstrates that they can reach and have an impact on all areas of the body. Foods that use too many of the enzymes deplete the pancreas ofits stores which can lead to a variety of disease states, demonstrating the important role of diet in preventing cancer and other diseases. [6] Pancreatic enzymes are an important part of many integrative cancer treatments because they help patients digest their food down to the components that are absorbed readily by the body. They help ensure proper nutrition and absorption of the necessary nutritional components in food since cancer patients are often deficient in a variety of these things. As such pancreatic enzymes have an impact on the following physical ailments including Digestive issues Cellulitis Diabetic ulcers Sinusitis Bronchitis Injury-related disorders (e.g, contusions, lacerations, sprains, strains, muscle injuries) Osteoarthritis Cancer Despite its success, unfortunately, after Dr. Beard’s death in 1923, pancreatic proteolytic enzyme therapy was swept under the rug and forgotten until recently [1][7] Effectiveness The use of systemic pancreatic enzyme therapy has been used by doctors since the early part of the 1900’s, The pancreatic enzymes are effective in the treatment of cancer with very low toxicity. [1][2][8]. Generally, however, pancreatic enzyme therapy is combined with a therapeutic diet along with other cancer-fighting treatments [9] Dr. Kelley’s Enzyme Therapy William Donald Kelley was a doctor who studied Dr. Beard’s theories to cure himself of metastatic pancreatic cancer after he'd been given only two months to live. This therapy uses high doses of pancreatic enzymes and regular coffee enemas. There are no side effects involved with Dr. Kelley's Enzyme Therapy and on newly diagnosed cancer patients, this treatment approach had a 93% success rate with the 33,000 patients Dr. Kelley and his practitioners treatec [1s][19}Using only pancreatic enzymes, patients who had advanced cancer had a lower chance of survival (about 25-50%) with this treatment but enzymes can be combined with other integrative cancer treatments (a cancer protocol) to raise the cure rate. Dr. Kelley believed that having a healthy pancreas was pivotal in fighting cancer. The pancreas and the liver work together to regulate insulin and the pancreas produces enzymes that can dissolve protein (including the proteins that protects cancer cells) [19] ‘When a patient has the proper amount of trace minerals in the body along with hormonal balance, their pancreatic enzymes can also be properly balanced, Kelley noted, for example, that high doses of vitamin C can disrupt enzyme function in the body. He didn’t use high doses of vitamin C in his treatment, Rather, he advocated for juicing specific vegetable combinations to support the glands in the body and thus hormonal balance [19] Dr. Kelley believed that cancer and diabetes were correlated. He treated them both in a similar way [19] Dr. Kelley's Enzyme Therapy is often used in conjunction with the Cellect-Budwig Protocol which combines a specially formulated nutritional powder with a special diet, vegetable juicing, laetrile supplementation, and electromedicine (e.g. use of a Rife Machine). [20] Pancreatic Enzyme Basics Throughout the 20" century, most scientists and doctors believed that new pancreatic proteolytic enzymes were manufactured and secreted into the small intestine on demand. These digestive enzymes were not circulated and recycled according to this traditional belief. But research has shown that, in fact, proteolytic pancreatic enzymes are recirculated similar to bile salts in enterohepatic circulation [7] Pancreatic enzymes make up a significant portion of blood. In fact, the second most abundant blood protein after albumin is alpha-anti-trypsin, a trypsin inhibitor [7] Belowis a list of the known pancreatic enzymes and their function in the body 1. Proteases Proteases digest proteins. They play a role in controlling anxiety and insomnia [12] “There are three proteases © Trypsin Cholecystokinin (a peptide produced by neurons in the enteric nervous system) spurs the secretion of trypsinogen into the small intestine via the pancreatic duct from the pancreas [13][14]Trypsin travels to the small intestine from the pancreas in an inactive form known as trypsinogen. This inactive form makes it safe for handling while its en route to the small intestine. When it reaches the digestive system the trypsinogen is activated by an enzyme in the mucosa of the small intestine called enterokinase (1) ‘Trypsin, in tum, activates chymotrypsin [11] Trypsin and chymotrypsin digest proteins into smaller units called peptides. Then, peptidase digests the peptides into amino acids for absorption. It also regulates the activity of other enzymes [11][12][13] Research has linked trypsin to chronic pancreatitis and cystic fibrosis. Studies have also shown that trypsin could be helpful in alleviating serious skin problems [13] © Chymotrypsin Chymotrypsinogen (the inactive pro-enzyme form of the enzyme) is activated by trypsin. As such, these two enzymes work together [11][15]. Chymotrypsin is crucial for healthy blood clotting and for the metabolism of the HIV virus [16] © Peptidase Present in plants as well as humans. Plays asole in controlling: inflammatory conditions, cancer, the immune system, and blood flow. Peptidase helps the immune system by digesting bacterial, viral, and parasitic invasions. It can help reduce inflammation in inflammatory bowel disease and can stop tumor formation in the lower bowel [12] 2. Pancreatic Lipase Pancreatic lipase digests triglycerides (the main constituents of natural fats and oils). They break triglycerides down into two mono-glycerides and two free fatty acids. Itis secreted into the small intestine via the pancreatic duct as a component in pancreatic juice. In order for pancreatic lipase to do its work digesting triglycerides, bile salts must be present in the small intestine in sufficient quantities. As such, both the liver and the pancreas play a role in digesting fats [11] 3. Amylase Amylases digest starches or carbohydrates, Starch is the primary storage form of glucose in plants. Itis primarily present in the pancreas, but also found in saliva [11]4, Ribonuclease Ribonuclease breaks RNA down into smaller components 5. Deoxyribonuclease ‘An enzyme thet breaks down DNA 6. Gelatinase Gelatinase is a proteolytic enzyme that breaks down gelatin into smaller components. 7. Elastase A pancreatic enzyme that breaks down elastin into smaller components Other Important Information Dr. Beard believed that pancreatic enzymes had to be injected into the bloodstream in order to prevent them from being destroyed by acids in the stomach, But research has shown that oral pancreatic enzymes pass intact into the small intestine where they're absorbed into the bloodstream for use throughout the body. The enzymes are recycled by the body and retumed to the pancreas [1][6] Pancreatic enzymes in supplement form are often derived from pigs [17] Resources [1] Gonzalez, N. J. (2017).

But salt is a poor carrier for iodine. As soon as the box of salt is open, the iodine begins to vaporize. Within days, less than 20% of the iodine remains. And to add to the lack of iodine in people’s diets, bromine, uorine, and chlorine can all compete with iodine (with bromine being the most likely to bump iodine out of its rightful place in the body). Most Americans are exposed to far more bromine than they are to iodine which causes a build-up of bromine in the body. Bromine sedates people and it causes weight gain and other health issues. Women’s iodine needs are much higher than men’s so the iodine deficiency epidemic in the U.S. is particularly conceming for femeles. A lack of iodine can lead to breast cancer and cancers of the reproductive organs in both men and women. By supplementing with iodine topically and by mouth, many people can enhance their overall health and vitality as well as recover from or prevent cancer Detailed Introduction In order to really understand iodine therapy for cancer, it’s helpful to take a look at the periodic table of the elements. Iodine is the 53" element, It’s one of the halogens along with fluorine, chlorine, bromine, and astatine. The halogen elements are extremely reactive, so reactive in fact, that they always pair up with something in nature, even if that means pairing up with themselves Two fluorine atoms paired up make a “fluoride”, two chlorines make a chloride, and so on and so forth [1]oO Periopic TABLE OF THE ELEMENTS GIGS i== i ice ag (at a Baca ae ‘We all know that iodine is essential for thyroid health, but iodine is essential for other aspects of well-being as well [1] Bromine, the element that sits just above iodine on the periodic table competes with iodine for receptor sites in the body. What this means is that if a person consumes alow amount of iodine but is exposed to bromine, the bromine can move into the body and mimic iodine by occupying iodine’s receptors, Bromine isn’t iodine and high levels of bromine can cause a variety of physiological problems in the body [1] High levels of bromine can, for example, cause damage to neuron membranes which can progressively impair neuron transmission, leading to a disease called “Bromism”. The following are symptoms of Bromism: Headache Fatigue Confusion Disorientation Auditory hallucinations Visual hallucinations Brain Fog Loss of control of body movements Short-term memory loss Drooping eyelids (ptosis) Neurological impairment PsychosisSeizures Gastrointestinal impairment Somnolence Delirium [1][5][6][7] ‘There have been reported cases of bromism developing as a result of high consumption of sodas that contain brominated vegetable oils, Patients may experience only one or all the symptoms listed above. Once exposed to bromine, it can take 9 to 12 days forit to be eliminated fom the body which means that it can accumulate over time. Doses of 0.5 to 1 gram per day can lead to bromism [5][6] Methyl bromide is toxic to human cells. Its toxicity can be mitigated by glutathione (an antioxidant that’s essential for a healthy immune system), however. The bromine ions can displace both iodine and chlorine ions in the body. Chlorine ions are essential for nerve transmission. Bromine can temporarily displace chlorine ions which can therefore lead to impaired nerve transmission [8][9][10] Politics ‘The historic movements that have led to the iodine deficiency epidemic in the United State: be easily traced to broad-sweeping decisions made by food industry leaders in the 1970's. At this time, products like bread and flour were no longer fortified with iodine. And when iodine was removed, bromine (which competes with iodine for receptor sites) was added to these food products. Brominated vegetable oils became common at this time [1] In addition to changes in the food industry, bromine chemicals began to be used as flame retardants on mattresses, furnishings, and in other consumer products during the 1960's and 1970's. Bromine replaced chlorine in pools. Ethylene bromide was added to gasoline in the 1960’s. Poisonous bromomethane and ethylene bromide has been used as an agricultural pesticide as well as to fumigate homes by the tenting method [1][3][4] Bromine is an effective and common pesticide used in fruit growing as well as to prevent insects and pests from attacking stored grain and other types of produce. Methyl bromide is the most common bromine-based pesticide currently in use throughout the world, but it’s use is in a decline due to the 1987 Montreal Protocol which classified it as an ozone-depleter and called for the bromine-pesticide use to stop. The United States, however, has received annual exemptions to go ahead and keep using it as a broad-spectrum pesticide on crops such as: peppers, strawberries, and tomatoes [4] About 50% of bromine is used in brominated flame retardants. Brominated flame retardants are used in a wide variety of domestic and industrial appliances such as computers, insulation boards, furniture, mattresses, mobile phones, televisions, textiles, children’s pajamas, and more Itis estimated that 90% of all electrical components contain brominated flame retardants [4]‘The United States is the world’s leading market for bromine. Israel is a major supplier of bromine [4] ‘At the time of this writing, itis difficult to find information about molecular iodine in the treatment of cancer. Google searches reveal only search results about radioactive iodine. By promoting research on radioactive iodine online, The Cancer Industry is able to cover up information about non-radioactive iodine for cancer treatment. A discussion of Google ranking and SEO strategies to cover-up information is beyond the scope of this book, but suffice it to say, iodine’s role in preventing and curing cancer has been usurped online by articles and information about “radioactive iodine” Dr. Guy Abraham, an iodine expert and proponent of iodine therapy, offers wry comments on the modem doctor’s fears of prescribing molecular iodine to patients while radioactive iodine is heavily promoted and pushed on patients “[Doctors] suffer from: A) a split personality which results in iodophobia within the orthoiododsupplementation range previously used safely and successfully in medical, practice and iodophylia for megadoses of iodide (up to 12 grams per day); B) double standards which render those physicians intolerant to the minor side effects of the inorganic forms; C) amnesia pertaining to the inorganic, non-radioactive forms when making therapeutic decisions; D) confusion, attributing the severe side effects of organic iodine-containing drugs to inorganic iodineliodide; and ) an altered state of consciousness, allowing doublethink, doublespeak, and contradictory logic to become acceptable. Although factors involved in medical iodophobia are still unknown, decreased cognition seems involved. Since low iodine intake is associated with intellectual impairment, deficiency of this essential element cannot be ruled out, and if present, would create a self-perpetuating phenomenon. Needless to say; medical iodophobia is contagious and can be transmitted to patients and other physicians (iatrogenic iodophobia). Medical iodophobia will remain a syndrome until the causes are discovered and effective therapy implemented. It is very likely however, that medical iodophobia will eventually be classified as an iodine-deficiency disease. In 1948, just after World War II, Wolff and Chaikoff at UC-Berkdey published a study that scared doctors and the public into believing that iodine was a dangerous and toxic substance thet could cause hypothyroidism in high doses. Iodine had been in wide use in the medical profession for generations, but the Wolff-Chaikoff study resulted in the removal of iodine from the American food supply as well as from medical practice [16]. Many doctors today still believe that iodine is toxic and a very dangerous substance [1] During this time, while doctors were readily accepting and promoting the idea that molecular iodine is toxic and dangerous to human health (despite the fact that it had been used for generations and people buy iodized salt knowing that iodine is a necessary mineral for health), they were also readily accepting the use of radioactive iodine for the treatment of cancer and other diseases [16]
