A Doctor's Take on Cancer

This article is written by a doctor who suffers
from cancer. He uses alternative rather than
conventional medicine that involves chemo etc.

"I posted this article, which may have some provoking
thoughts:

What is written here is absolutely 100% true and as
a doctor I have been telling people this for 15 years
now. No one wants to listen. Folks need to wake up.
Cancer treatment is about making money. It is a 120
billion dollar a year industry in the United States
alone and estimated to be a 600 billion dollar a year
industry worldwide.

A successful cancer case according to the American
Cancer Society and the American College of Oncology
and Hematology means that the person survives for
5 years. Both the American Cancer Society and the
American College of Oncology and Hematology admit
that a person is likely to survive cancer for 7 to
10 years even if they do absolutely NOTHING.
Of course, only the doctors get those magazines -
not you, the cancer patient.

Alternative medicine's track record of curing cancer
is 10 times higher than that of conventional medicine.
Note that I say CURE.

Remember another thing. A TUMOR is just a symptom.
It is not the cause of cancer.

Science is cause and effect. Remove the cause and
the effect disappears.

I am in my third battle with cancer right now.
I have not done any chemotherapy or radiation or
surgery for any of my bouts with cancer. I survived
leukemia, I survived Non Hodgkins Lymphoma and now
I have Glioblastoma which is supposedly an incurable
form of brain cancer. I was given two months to live
5 months ago.

I have been using Chinese herbs, high doses of
Vitamin C, acupuncture, chiropractic, homeopathy and
nutritional changes. Yes, at first it got worse. It
had metastasized to my lymph nodes, my lungs and my
bones. As of this week, I am happy to say that there
is no evidence now of any cancer in my lymph system
or my bones. I had 6 tumors in my lungs, now there
are only two. The tumors in my brain have shrunken
tremendously. I never did any of their chemo,
radiation or surgery.

Here is a very interesting statistic that you can
only have access to by being a doctor.

Every year more than 1,000 doctors oncologists (cancer
doctors) are diagnosed with cancer. Less than 10% of
them choose to do the treatment that they have been
giving to their patients. Sort of like the fact that
less than 25% of all pediatricians vaccinate their own
children because of the fact that the risk of sudden
death or serious side effects from the vaccination
is higher than the risk of catching the disease one
is being vaccinated for.

This is not bullshit people - it is truth.

Medicine is about money, not about your health and
the system traps people, especially the elderly,
disabled and poor into a deadly treatment regime
that puts them in an early grave. Meanwhile, all
the jet set billionaires are flying off to Europe
and paying big bucks for alternative treatments
and getting cured.

Does alternative medicine work all the time? No.
Of course not. Nothing works all the time. But
there is a reason for that. You don't die until
it's your time to die. Nothing can make you live
longer than that time.

However quality of life comes into play. Those
cancer patients who use alternative therapies
for their cancer, yet still die from the illness,
suffer a much higher quality of life. They die able
to spend time with their families and even recognize
their family members. They don't become emaciated
like those who do chemotherapy or radiation do and
rarely is a person who goes under the treatment of
chemotherapy able to recognize anyone for the last
few days of their lives.

Their bodies become ravaged to the point that you
can't even recognize them either. They suffer at a
much much higher rate and they have one let down
after another as doctors tell them, ahhh - it's
looking good, only to tell them on the next visit
it's looking worse, you need more chemo and radiation.

What is criminal about this is that
YOUR DOCTORS KNOW THIS SHIT.

I took an oath as a physician. I have always
followed it. That has certainly not made me successful
financially as a doctor because I have consistently
refused to go along with conventional medicine's
bullshit.

Read the following carefully. It may indeed make
a difference in your life."

AFTER YEARS OF TELLING PEOPLE CHEMOTHERAPY IS
THE ONLY WAY TO TRY ('TRY', BEING THE KEY WORD)
TO ELIMINATE CANCER, JOHNS HOPKINS IS FINALLY
STARTING TO TELL YOU THERE IS AN ALTERNATIVE WAY .

Cancer Update from Johns Hopkins :

1. Every person has cancer cells in the body.
These cancer cells do not show up in the standard
tests until they have multiplied to a few billion.
When doctors tell cancer patients that there are
no more cancer cells in their bodies after treatment,
it just means the tests are unable to detect the
cancer cells because they have not reached the
detectable size.

2. Cancer cells occur between 6 to more than 10 times
in a person's lifetime.

3. When the person's immune system is strong the cancer
cells will be destroyed and prevented from multiplying
and forming tumors.

4. When a person has cancer it indicates the person has
nutritional deficiencies. These could be due to genetic,
but also to environmental, food and lifestyle factors.

5. To overcome the multiple nutritional deficiencies,
changing diet to eat more adequately and healthy,
4-5 times/day and by including supplements will
strengthen the immune system.

6. Chemotherapy involves poisoning the rapidly-growing
cancer cells and also destroys rapidly-growing healthy
cells in the bone marrow, gastro-intestinal tract etc,
and can cause organ damage, like liver, kidneys, heart,
lungs etc.

7. Radiation while destroying cancer cells also burns,
scars and damages healthy cells, tissues and organs.

8. Initial treatment with chemotherapy and radiation will
often reduce tumor size. However prolonged use of chemo-
therapy and radiation do not result in more tumor
destruction.

9. When the body has too much toxic burden from chemotherapy
and radiation the immune system is either compromised or
destroyed, hence the person can succumb to various kinds
of infections and complications.

10. Chemotherapy and radiation can cause cancer cells to
mutate and become resistant and difficult to destroy.
Surgery can also cause cancer cells to spread to other
sites.

11. An effective way to battle cancer is to starve the
cancer cells by not feeding it with the foods it needs
to multiply.


*CANCER CELLS FEED ON:-

a. Sugar substitutes like NutraSweet, Equal, Spoonful,
etc., are made with Aspartame and it is harmful.
A better natural substitute would be Manuka honey
or molasses, but only in very small amounts. Table
salt has a chemical added to make it white in color.
Better alternative is Bragg's aminos or sea salt.

b. Milk causes the body to produce mucus, especially
in the gastro-intestinal tract. Cancer feeds on
mucus. By cutting off milk and substituting with
unsweetened soy milk cancer cells are being starved.

c. Cancer cells thrive in an acid environment. A meat-
based diet is acidic and it is best to eat fish,
and a little other meat, like chicken. Meat also
contains livestock antibiotics, growth hormones
and parasites, which are all harmful, especially
to people with cancer.

d. A diet made of 80% fresh vegetables and juice, whole
grains, seeds, nuts and a little fruits help put the
body into an alkaline environment. About 20% can be
from cooked food including beans. Fresh vegetable
juices provide live enzymes that are easily absorbed
and reach down to cellular levels within 15 minutes
to nourish and enhance growth of healthy cells. To
obtain live enzymes for building healthy cells try
and drink fresh vegetable juice (most vegetables
including bean sprouts) and eat some raw vegetables
2 or 3 times a day. Enzymes are destroyed at
temperatures of 104 degrees F (40 degrees C)..

e. Avoid coffee, tea, and chocolate, which have high
caffeine. Green tea is a better alternative and has
cancer fighting properties. Water; best to drink
purified water, or filtered, to avoid known toxins
and heavy metals in tap water. Distilled water is
acidic, avoid it.

12. Meat protein is difficult to digest and requires
a lot of digestive enzymes. Undigested meat remaining
in the intestines becomes putrefied and leads to more
toxic buildup.

13. Cancer cell walls have a tough protein covering.
By refraining from or eating less meat it frees more
enzymes to attack the protein walls of cancer cells
and allows the body's killer cells to destroy the
cancer cells.

14. Some supplements build up the immune system (IP6,
Flor-ssence, Essiac, anti-oxidants, vitamins, minerals,
EFAs etc.) to enable the bodies own killer cells to
destroy cancer cells.. Other supplements like Vitamin E
are known to cause apoptosis, or programmed cell death,
the body's normal method of disposing of damaged,
unwanted, or unneeded cells.

15. Cancer is a disease of the mind, body, and spirit.
A proactive and positive spirit will help the cancer
warrior be a survivor. Anger, un-forgiveness and
bitterness put the body into a stressful and acidic
environment. Learn to have a loving and forgiving
spirit. Learn to relax and enjoy life.

16. Cancer cells cannot thrive in an oxygenated environment.
Exercising daily, and deep breathing help to get more
oxygen down to the cellular level. Oxygen therapy is
another means employed to destroy cancer cells.

1. No plastic containers in micro.

2. No water bottles in freezer.

3. No plastic wrap in microwave..

Johns Hopkins has recently sent this out in its newsletters.
This information is being circulated at Walter Reed Army
Medical Center as well.

Dioxin chemicals cause cancer, especially breast cancer.
Dioxins are highly poisonous to the cells of our bodies.
Don't freeze your plastic bottles with water in them as
this releases dioxins from the plastic.

Recently, Dr Edward Fujimoto, Wellness Program Manager
at Castle Hospital, was on a TV program to explain this
health hazard. He talked about dioxins and how bad they
are for us. He said that we should not be heating our
food in the microwave using plastic containers. This
especially applies to foods that contain fat. He said
that the combination of fat, high heat, and plastics
releases dioxin into the food and ultimately into the
cells of the body.

Instead, he recommends using glass, such as Corning Ware,
Pyrex or ceramic containers for heating food. You get
the same results, only without the dioxin. So such things
as TV dinners, instant ramen and soups, etc., should be
removed from the container and heated in something else.

Paper isn't bad but you don't know what is in the paper.
It's just safer to use tempered glass, Corning Ware, etc.
He reminded us that a while ago some of the fast food
restaurants moved away from the foam containers to
paper The dioxin problem is one of the reasons.

Also, he pointed out that plastic wrap, such as Saran,
is just as dangerous when placed over foods to be cooked
in the microwave. As the food is nuked, the high heat
causes poisonous toxins to actually melt out of the
plastic wrap and drip into the food. Cover food with
a paper towel instead.

Tapping to Heal at Meridian Points

To help with healing, do try this simple method called EFT or
Emotional Freedom Technique, best explained via videos at :

http://goo.gl/PpXvH or

by entering "tapping with cheryl" in the YouTube Search box

Read the comments below for testimonials on how it has affected
people who have tried it, among them is this one posted 3 years
ago: "EFT is an amazing tool that anyone can learn and use.
I've had great success with using EFT. If you want more clarity,
calmness, success, better relationships, lose weight or whatever
else, I highly recommend EFT!!

And another earlier post: "It's not mumbo jumbo, or paranormal -
it can be explained in scientific terms. The meridian points
correspond to nerve plexuses that enter the spine close to other
nerves that control muscles, organs etc. Stimulating them has
a spillover effect (like poorly insulated speaker cables that
pick up radio signals). This can cause relaxation or stimulation,
and, in the end all nerves lead to the brain.

First Action For A Heart Attack

Here is something good that we can do to help ourselves.
Bayer is making crystal aspirin to dissolve under the tongue.
They work much faster than the tablets.

Always keep aspirin by your bedside in case of a Heart Attack.

There are other symptoms of a heart attack besides pain on the
left arm. One must also be aware of an intense pain on the chin,
as well as nausea and lots of sweating; however these symptoms
may also occur less frequently.

Note: There may be NO pain in the chest during a heart attack.
The majority of people (about 60%) who had a heart attack
during their sleep, did not wake up. However, if it occurs,
the chest pain may wake you up from your deep sleep.

If that happens, immediately dissolve two aspirins in your
mouth and swallow them with a bit of water.

Afterwards:
- phone a neighbor or a family member who lives very close by
- say "heart attack!"
- say that you have taken 2 aspirins..
- take a seat on a chair or sofa near the front door, and wait
for their arrival and...
~ do NOT lie down ~

A Cardiologist has stated that, if each person, after reading
this advice, informs 10 others, probably one life can be saved!

Life is short, take action where necessary to preserve it.
Someone just passed on due to a heart attack because he did
not believe in calling the ambulance but decided to go to a
clinic instead. Sadly due to the time wasted, his children
are now left without a father.

Women and Heart Attack

It a known fact that women rarely have the same dramatic symptoms that men have when experiencing a heart attack...you know, the sudden stabbing pain in the chest, the cold sweat, grabbing the chest and dropping to the floor that we see in the movies.

I had a completely unexpected heart attack at about 10:30 pm with NO prior exertion, NO prior emotional trauma that one would suspect might've brought it on.

I was sitting all snugly and warm on a cold evening, with my purring cat in my lap, reading an interesting story my friend had sent me, and actually thinking,"A-A-h, this is the life, all cozy and warm in my soft, cushy Lazy Boy with my feet propped up."

A moment later, I felt that awful sensation of indigestion, when you've been in a hurry and grabbed a bite of sandwich and washed it down with a dash of water, and that hurried bite seems to feel like you've swallowed a golf ball going down the esophagus in slow motion and it is most uncomfortable.

You realize you shouldn't have gulped it down so fast and needed to chew it more thoroughly and this time drink a glass of water to hasten its progress down to the stomach. This was my initial sensation---the only trouble was that I hadn't taken a bite of anything since about 5 p.m.
After that had seemed to subside, the next sensation was like little squeezing motions that seemed to be racing up my SPINE (hind-sight, it was probably my aorta spasming) gaining speed as they continued racing up and under my sternum (breast bone, where one presses rhythmically when administering CPR).

This fascinating process continued on into my throat and branched out into both jaws. AHA!! NOW I stopped puzzling about what was happening--we all have read and/or heard about pain in the jaws being one of the signals of an MI happening, haven't we?

I said aloud to myself and the cat, "Dear God, I think I'm having a heart attack !" I lowered the foot rest, dumping the cat from my lap, started to take a step and fell on the floor instead. I thought to myself "If this is a heart attack, I shouldn't be walking into the next room where the phone is or anywhere else.......but, on the other hand, if I don't, nobody will know that I need help, and if I wait any longer I may not be able to get up in a moment."

I pulled myself up with the arms of the chair, walked slowly into the next room and dialed the Paramedics... I told her I thought I was having a heart attack due to the pressure building under the sternum and radiating into my jaws.

I didn't feel hysterical or afraid, just stating the facts. She said she was sending the Paramedics over immediately, asked if the front door was near to me, and if so, to unbolt the door and then lie down on the floor where they could see me when they came in.

I then laid down on the floor as instructed and lost consciousness, as I don't remember the medics coming in, their examination, lifting me onto a guerny or getting me into their ambulance or hearing the call they made to St. Jude ER on the way, but I did briefly awaken when we arrived and saw that the Cardiologist was already there in his surgical blues and cap, helping the medics pull my stretcher out of the ambulance. He was bending over me asking questions (probably something like "Have you taken any medications?") but I couldn't make my mind interpret what he was saying, or form an answer, and nodded off again, not waking up until the Cardiologist and partner had already threaded the teeny angiogram balloon up my femoral artery into the aorta and into my heart where they installed 2 side by side stents to hold open my right coronary artery.

I know it sounds like all my thinking and actions at home must have taken at least 20-30 minutes before calling the Paramedics, but actually it took perhaps 4-5 minutes before the call, and both the fire station and St. Jude are only minutes away from my home, and my Cardiologist was all ready to go to the OR in his scrubs and get going on restarting my heart (which had stopped somewhere between my arrival and the procedure) and installing the stents.

Why have I written all of this with so much detail? Because I want all of you who are so important in my life to know what I learned first hand

1. Be aware that something very different is happening in your body; not the usual men's symptoms, but inexplicable things happening (until my sternum and jaws got into the act ). It is said that many more women than men die of their first (and last) MI because they didn't know they were having one, and commonly mistake it as indigestion, take some Maalox or other anti-heartburn" preparation, and go to bed, hoping they'll feel better in the morning when they wake up....which doesn't happen.

My female friends your symptoms might not be exactly like mine, so I advise you to call the Paramedics if ANYTHING is unpleasantly happening that you've not felt before. It is better to have a "false alarm" visitation than to risk your life guessing what it might be!

2. Note that I said "Call the Paramedics". Ladies, TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE! Do NOT try to drive yourself to the ER--you're a hazard to others on the road, and so is your panicked husband who will be speeding and looking anxiously at what's happening with you instead of the road.

Do NOT call your doctor--he doesn't know where you live and if it's at night you won't reach him anyway, and if it's daytime, his assistants (or answering service) will tell you to call the Paramedics. He doesn't carry the equipment in his car that you need to be saved! The Paramedics do, principally OXYGEN that you need ASAP. Your doctor will be notified later.

3. Don't assume it couldn't be a heart attack because you have a normal cholesterol count. Research has discovered that a cholesterol elevated reading is rarely the cause of an MI (unless it's unbelievably high, and/or accompanied by high blood pressure.) MI's are usually caused by long-term stress and inflammation in the body, which dumps all sorts of deadly hormones into your system to sludge things up in there.

Pain in the jaw can wake you from a sound sleep. Let's be careful and be aware. The more we know, the better chance we could survive.

Take care and stay safe!

The Importance of Breakfast

Breakfast can help prevent strokes, heart attack and sudden death.

Advice on not to skip breakfast! Tips for healthy living... For those who always skip breakfast, you should start kicking that habit now!! You've heard many times that "Breakfast is the most important meal of the day."

Now, recent research confirms that one of the worst practices you can develop may be avoiding breakfast. Why? Because the frequency of heart attacks, sudden death, and stroke peaks between 6:00a.m and noon, with the highest incidence being between 8:00a.m. and 10:00a.m.

What mechanism within the body could account for this significant jump in sudden death in the early morning hours? :-( We may have an answer. Platelet, tiny elements in the blood that keep us from bleeding to death if we get a cut, can clump together inside our arteries due to cholesterol or plaque buildup in the artery lining. It is in the morning hours that platelets become the most activated and tend to form these internal blood clots at the greatest frequency.

However, eating even a very light breakfast prevents the morning platelet activation that is associated with heart attacks and strokes. Studies performed at Memorial University in St.Johns, Newfoundland found that eating a light, very low-fat breakfast was critical in modifying the morning platelet activation. Subjects in the study consumed either low-fat or fat-free yogurt, orange juice, fruit, and a source of protein coming from yogurt or fat-free milk.

So if you skip breakfast, it's important that you change this practice immediately in light of this research. Develop a simple plan to eat cereal, such as oatmeal or Bran Flakes, along with six ounces of grape juice or orange juice, and perhaps a piece of fruit. This simple plan will keep your platelets from sticking together, keep blood clots from forming, and perhaps head off a potential heart attack or stroke.

So never ever skip breakfast :-)

Alternative remedy for stroke

WISDOM IS THE ABILITY TO DISCOVER AN ALTERNATIVE - Dr. Bernard Jensen

A NEEDLE CAN SAVE THE LIFE OF A STROKE PATIENT (From a Chinese professor)

Keep a syringe or needle in your home. It's amazing and an unconventional way of helping a victim to recover from stroke. Read this, it can help somebody who has a stroke one day. Do take a minute to read this. You'll never know. One's life may depend on you.

"My father was paralyzed and later died from the result of a stroke. I wish I knew about this first aid before. When stroke strikes, the capillaries in the brain will gradually burst."(Irene Liu)

When a stroke occurs, stay calm. No matter where the victim is, do not move him/her. Because, if moved, the capillaries will burst. Help the victim to sit up where he is to prevent him from falling over again, and then the bloodletting can begin.

If you have in your home an injection syringe that would be the best, otherwise, a sewing needle or a straight pin will do. 1. Place the needle/pin over fire to sterilize it, and then use it to prick the tip of all 10 fingers. 2. There are no specific acupuncture points, just prick about a mm from the fingernail.3. Prick till blood comes out. 4. If blood does not start to drip, then squeeze with your fingers.5. When all 10 digits is bleeding, wait a few minutes then the victim will regain consciousness.6. If the victim's mouth is crooked, then pull on his ears until they are red.
7. Then prick each ear lobe twice until two drops of blood comes from each ear lobe. After a few minutes the victim should regain consciousness.

Wait till the victim regain his normal state without any abnormal symptoms then take him to the hospital, otherwise, if he was taken in the ambulance in a hurry to the hospital, the bumpy trip will cause all the capillaries in his brain to burst. If he could save his life, barely managing to walk, then it is by the grace of his ancestors.

" I learned about letting blood to save life from a Chinese traditional doctor, Ha Bu-Ting, who lives in Sun-Juke. Furthermore, I had practical experience with it. Therefore I can say this method is 100% effective.

In 1979, I was teaching in Fung-Gaap College in Tai-Chung. One afternoon I was teaching class when another teacher came running to my class room and said in panting, "Ms. Liu, come quick, our supervisor has had a stroke!" I immediately went to the 3rd floor. When I saw our supervisor, Mr.Chen Fu-Tien, his color was off, his speech was slurred, his mouth was crooked - all the symptoms of a stroke. I immediately asked one of the practicum students to go to the pharmacy outside the school to buy a syringe, which I used to prick Mr. Chen's 10 fingers tips.

When all 10 fingers were bleeding (each with a pea-sized drop of blood), after a few minutes, Mr. Chen's face regained its color and his eyes' spirit returned, too. But his mouth was still crooked. So I pulled on his ears to fill them with blood. When his ears became red, I pricked his right earlobe twice to let out 2 drops of blood. When both earlobes had two drops of blood each, a miracle happened. Within 3-5 minutes the shape of his mouth returned to normal and his speech became clear. We let him rest for a while and have a cup of hot tea, then we helped him go down the stairs, drove him to Wei-Wah Hospital.

He rested one night and was released the next day to return to school to teach. Everything worked normally. There were no ill after-effects. On the other hand, the usual stroke victim usually suffers irreparable bursting of the brain capillaries on the way to the hospital. As a result, these victims never recover.

Stroke is the second cause of death in our country. The lucky ones will stay alive but can remain paralyzed for life. It is such a horrible thing to happen in one's life. If we can all remember this bloodletting method and start the life-saving process immediately, in a short time, the victim will be revived and regain 100% normality.

All About Mossies

The Mosquito has been in the news again ever since some folks were affected by their bites and caused a dengue epidemic that killed a few people.

The following alert on common remedies was circulated and could prove useful to those who live in environments where mosquito breeding is unavoidable, like construction sites and rubbish heaps where pools of rainfall create opportunity for this health hazard to manifest.

It's about that time folks -- so thought I'd send out this reminder!!!! OK, mosquitos.. prepare to be repelled!!!!! Use Bounce Fabric Softener Sheets...Best thing ever used in Louisiana..just wipe on & go..Great for Babies. Bob, a fisherman, takes one vitamin B-1 tablet a day April through October . He said it works. He was right. Hasn't had a mosquito bite in 33 years. Try it. Every one he has talked into trying it works on them. Vitamin B-1( Thiamine Hydrochloride 100 mg.)

If you eat bananas, the mosquitos like you, - something about the banana oil as your body processes it. Stop eating bananas for the summer and the mosquitos will be much less interested.

This is going to floor you, but one of the best insect repellents someone found (who is in the woods every day) is Vick's Vaporub. Plant marigolds around the yard, the flowers give off a smell that bugs do not like, so plant some in that garden also to help ward off bugs without using insecticides.

"Tough guy" Marines who spend a great deal of time "camping out" say that the very best mosquito repellant you can use is Avon Skin-So-Soft bath oil mixed about half and half with alcohol.

One of the best natural insect repellants that I've discovered is made from the clear real vanilla. This is the pure Vanilla that is sold in Mexico. It works great for mosquitoes and ticks, don't know about other insects.
