Tumors
Berberine demonstrates antitumor activity against human and rat malignant brain tumors. In vitro studies were performed on a series of 6 human malignant brain tumor cell lines and rat 9L brain tumor cells. Berberine used alone at a dose of 150 meg/ mL showed an average cancer cell kill of 91%. This kill rate was over twice that of l,3-bis(2-chloro- ethyl)-1-nitrosourea (BCNU), the standard chemotherapeutic agent for brain tumors, which had a cell kill rate of 43%. Studies in rats harboring solid 9L brain tumors also showed berberine has antitumor effects. |

Sodium nitrite, for example, has been irrefutably shown to cause pancreatic cancer, colon cancer, leukemia and brain tumors in children, and yet the FDA looks the other way while processed meat manufacturers continue to add sodium nitrite to meat products sold throughout the country.

This kill rate was over twice that of l,3-bis(2-chloro- ethyl)-1-nitrosourea (BCNU), the standard chemotherapeutic agent for brain tumors, which had a cell kill rate of 43%. Studies in rats harboring solid 9L brain tumors also showed berberine has antitumor effects. Rats treated with berberine, 10 mg/kg, had a 81% cell kill. However, the combination treatment, berberine and BCNU, exhibited additive effects on killing cancer cells. |

He used his political influence to quash an FDA toxicologist's report naming aspartame as a cause of not only cancer, but brain tumors as well. In 1996 the Food and Drug Administration published a list of 92 adverse aspartame reactions that included seizures, blindness, obesity; testicular, mammary and brain tumors; sex dysfunction, and death, acquired from 10,000 consumer complaints. |

The largest (diketopiperazine) appears to be the cause for brain tumors in animal feeding studies. Olney says when it is processed (nitrosated) by the gut it produces a compound closely resembling a powerful chemical (N-nitrosourea)7 that causes brain tumores. Author and neurosurgeon Russell Blaylock, suggests that ajump in brain tumors in the US population in the 1980s is linked to the introduction of aspartame.8 Blaylock refers to an Italian rat study9 in which "they fed animals aspartame throughout their lives and let them die a natural death. |

Through clever advertising campaigns the world population was made to believe that aspartame and all the other artificial sweeteners are just simple, harmless, food additives that give you the sweet taste, but help you keep slim, or even shed some extra pounds. However, the sweeteners are actually patented for "appetite enhancement. |

Studies in rats harboring solid 9L brain tumors also showed berberine has antitumor effects. Rats treated with berberine, 10 mg/kg, had a 81% cell kill. However, the combination treatment, berberine and BCNU, exhibited additive effects on killing cancer cells. These results indicate that berberine may prove to be more effective than BCNU or, at the very least, a valuable therapeutic addition in the treatment of difficult brain cancers (Zhang et al, 1990). indications and usage

One study divided thirty people who had advanced brain tumors into two groups and treated one with radiation therapy and the other with radiation therapy plus 20 mg of melatonin. After a year, only one of the sixteen (6 percent) in the radiation-only group was still alive compared to six of the fourteen (43 percent) in the radiation plus melatonin group.
Reboot Your Brain
Then there's melatonin's most famous use— helping to regulate sleep. Melatonin helps sets the brain's internal clock. It's terrific for jet lag and for any time that your sleep cycle is disrupted artificially. |

They can be the harbingers of eventually life-threatening circulatory problems, heart attacks, strokes and even brain tumors. An epidemiological study, conducted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and published in the journal Stroke, found that greater tooth loss is associated with a higher risk for heart attack and stroke. |

International Journal Cancer 102:192-7, 2002] In Austria, doctors have used hyaluronidase to treat children with brain tumors and have produced favorable results. [Cancer Letters 131: 101-08, 1998]
In mice where melanoma cells had been implanted, the pre-administration of hyaluronidase before injection of an anticancer drug (vinblastine) was shown to produce marked anti-tumor effects. Hyaluronidase by itself did not alter tumor growth or metastasis. |

During the entire examination, he will assess whether you appear to be engaged in the task or distracted by depression, anxiety, or other psychiatric symptoms, and will be looking for evidence of small strokes, brain tumors, Parkinson's disease, fluid accumulation on the brain, and other conditions that may impair memory or cognition. Be warned that the doctor will also be looking to see if you behave socially appropriately or not. So if you have a ribald sense of humor, try to button it down on your first visit, even if you are someone who copes with adversity by using humor. |

Yet it directly promotes pancreatic cancer, brain tumors, leukemia, colon cancer and probably many other types of cancer. So why does the U.S. government allow food companies to use this known cancer-causing ingredient? Because it's all about profits. The chemical boosts sales of processed meat because it turns the meat bright red. It's a color fixer. But it kills countless Americans each year from cancers that are completely preventable.
Why should this ingredient continue to be allowed in the food supply? |

Aspartame consumption can cause headache, memory loss, obesity; testicular, mammary and brain tumors; seizures, vision loss, coma and cancer. It worsens or mimics the symptoms of such diseases and conditions as Fibromyalgia, MS, lupus, ADD, diabetes, Alzheimer's, chronic fatigue and depression.
The effects of aspartame are documented by the FDA's own data. In 1995 the agency was forced, under the Freedom of Information Act, to release a list of ninety-two aspartame symptoms reported by thousands of victims. In 1996 the FDA stopped taking complaints and now denies the existence of the report. |
| The Electroencephalogram (EEG), which is used to measure brain activity and detect brain tumors and epilepsy, often gives highly unreliable diagnostic results, too. Twenty percent of people who suffer from epileptic seizures produce normal readings. What is even worse, 15-20 percent of healthy people produce an abnormal EEG. To show how unreliable the EEG machine can be, when it was once connected to the head of a doll, it showed that the doll was alive. In order to avoid costly and potentially risky treatment programs, one should not rely solely on the diagnosis produced by the EEG. |

A daily dose of 40 mg per kilogram of body weight (2,800 mg for a 160lb human) remarkably increased survival rates in mice with brain tumors (neuroblastomas) from zero to 70%. [Surgery 136: 57-66, 2004]
Safety
Because resveratrol disables detoxification enzymes produced in the liver, it may interfere with certain medications and should not be used at the same time as blood pressure, cholesterol or other drugs.
Up to 300 mg of resveratrol per kilogram of body weight (21,000 mg human equivalent) showed no detrimental effect upon animals. |
| Children with brain tumors who received hyaluronidase plus chemotherapy faired better and had fewer relapses. [Cancer Letters 131: 101-08, 1998] Hyaluronidase is only available as a drug, not a food supplement.
HA intercepts cancer cells
Another intriguing quality of HA is that it sticks to cancer cells and therefore has the ability to intercept roaming cancer cells in the blood circulation. Cancer cells that metastasize (spread) make their way from the original tumor site through newly formed blood vessels into the blood circulation. |
| Endocrinological Related Cancer 11: 255-63, 2004] Copper withheld from the diet of rats with brain tumors results in a reduction in tumor weight and fewer blood vessels to feed the tumor. The use of a copper chelator (D-penicillamine) reduces tumor size. [Neurosurgery 37: 287, 1995] Copper chelation is known to inhibit angiogenesis (abnormal blood vessel formation that feeds tumors). [Oncological Research 14: 529-39, 2004] The use of a copper-chelatina druq completely prevented the development of visible breast cancers in mice. |

Iron and colon cancer
The colon is an iron-rich tissue.
- The majority of patients with a new diagnosis of colorectal cancer are iron deficient at presentation. [Colorectal Diseases 7: 398-402, 2005] This is because the tumor is taking all the dietary iron before it can reach the bone marrow to produce new red blood cells. |
| For example, small brain tumors are often left alone because surgical intervention may cause brain damage. Prostate tumors are often so slow growing that males who opt for "watchful waiting"'live as long as patients who undergo surgical removal of their prostate.
Explaining the disturbing trend for terminal cancer patients to receive chemotherapy and other aggressive but futile treatments in the last days of their lives, Dr. Roy Herbst of the MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston aptly says: "Patients don't like to give up. |

According to the American Journal of Medicine, many studies have reported the presence of SV40 from the polio vaccine in human brain tumors and bone cancers, malignant mesothelioma, and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. The polio vaccine seems ever more linked to cancers, especially in children. The cancers caused by the use of the polio vaccine in the past still kills 20,000 people a year in the United States. This is quite outrageous given the fact that polio itself hasn't killed anyone for a long time.
Involuntary Vaccinations
The vast majority of vaccinations—for children or adults—are needless. |

The highly carcinogenic ingredient sodium nitrite, for example, sounds perfectly innocent, but it is well documented to cause brain tumors, pancreatic cancer, colon cancer and many other cancers (just search Google Scholar for sodium nitrite to see a long list of supporting research, or click here to read NewsTarget articles on sodium nitrite).
Carmine sounds like an innocent food coloring, but it's actually made from the smashed bodies of red cochineal beetles. |

As detailed in my book Grocery Warning, this ingredient causes brain tumors in children, not to mention leukemia, pancreatic cancer, colon cancer and other cancers.

Because they contain chemical additives that are known to greatly increase the risk of various cancers, including colorectal cancer, breast cancer, prostate cancer, leukemia, brain tumors, pancreatic cancer and many more. The report, published at this DietAndCancerReport.org website also recommends that consumers:
Avoid all sugary soft drinks for life.
Exercise at least 30 minutes a day.
Get lean and fit, without becoming underweight.
Limit consumption of ALL meats (even fresh meat).
Breastfeed all infants for their first six months, avoiding infant formula. |

Vitamin D, as recent studies have shown, prevents up to 77 of ALL cancers in women (breast cancer, colon cancer, cervical cancer, lung cancer, brain tumors, multiple myeloma... you name it). Meanwhile, the toxic chemical ingredients used in most sunscreen products are actually carcinogenic and have never been safety tested or safety approved by the FDA. They get absorbed right through the skin (a porous organ that absorbs most substances it comes into contact with) and enter the bloodstream.
The benefits of sunscreen are a myth. |
