After a cancer diagnosis: Crucial questions to consider about chemotherapy vs. naturopathic cancer treatments

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger
See article keywords and concepts
After cancer treatments nearly kill them, they reach out for alternatives When cancer patients finally make that decision to embrace alternative medicine, they often do so in a near-death state because they have been so utterly harmed by the treatments espoused by conventional, Western medicine. Then, even more frustratingly, they begin to take a few herbs or experience some kind of alternative treatment and end up dying from organ failure caused by the toxic chemotherapy given to them by their conventional medical doctors. That is why I tell people you have to make a choice sooner.

The aloe vera miracle: A natural medicine for cancer, cholesterol, diabetes, inflammation, IBS, and other health conditions

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger
See article keywords and concepts
A complete discussion of the fraud in modern cancer treatments would require another article entirely, but the short version is that the cancer industry has no interest whatsoever in actually curing or preventing cancer and, instead, generates windfall profits through ongoing cancer treatments that only harm or kill patients. Chemotherapy, radiation and surgery for cancer are largely medical frauds, and mammography is actually an insidious recruiting system that scares women into unnecessary treatments for cancers they often don't even have.

Timeless Secrets of Health & Rejuvenation: Unleash The Natural Healing Power That Lies Dormant Within You

With most cancers, the highly suppressive and destructive cancer treatments eventually lead to a far more aggressive and fast-spreading cancer (survival response) than the original one. The time "gained" at the beginning will be lost at the end. All current orthodox cancer treatments damage or destroy the immune system which causes inflammation and makes the body susceptible to other illnesses.

What Your Doctor Doesn't Know About Nutritional Medicine May Be Killing You

Ray D. Strand

Shouldn't physicians want their patients to be as healthy as possible, since cancer treatments are going to put patients under the greatest stress they have had to endure in their lives? Natural antioxidants and their supporting nutrients are the ideal chemo-preventive agents for many reasons. They • limit and even prevent the free-radical damage to the DNA nucleus of the cell. • provide the proper nutrients needed for the body to repair any damage that has been done already. • are safe and may be taken over a lifetime. (Pharmaceutical drugs do not share this advantage.

You Don't Have to be Afraid of Cancer Anymore

Bill Sardi

She tried various alternative cancer treatments, spending over $20,000 on them, when by surprise she heard of simple nutritional remedies that may be effective. Within weeks she was feeling healthy and a subsequent x-ray showed her lung tumor had vanished. ţ A man in South Africa with lymphoma, who read of the dietary supplement that could quell cancer. Within weeks his cancer had disappeared. These patients didn't wait for tomorrow's cancer drugs. Maybe the nutrients these patients took had nothing to do with these remissions. Maybe they just had tumors that were slow growing.
The LA Times article when on to say: "The therapies for which he and his wife had paid so dearly — using up much of their savings and forsaking traditional cancer treatments that might have prolonged his life — were useless, doctors say." That they were, but so are most of the treatments offered by cancer doctors. Roan argued that alternative medicine practitioners have been given some level of credibility by their integration with doctors who provide conventional care.
While this book emphasizes that the "gold standard' used to compare cancer treatments is survival, other important aspects of cancer care are degree of pain and side effects. Family members don't want their loved ones to be in pain, or to experience constant diarrhea, nausea, or fatigue, which are common side effects experienced during and after conventional cancer treatment.
Prevailing over poor health habits While Rife Technology, laetrile, shark cartilage, and many other alternative cancer treatments have not withstood scientific scrutiny over the course of time, the hallowed research laboratories sponsored by the National Cancer Institute are now validating natural molecules as far more effective than the re-arranged pharmaceutical molecules that comprise most cancer drugs in use today.
Current Medical Research Opinion 21: SI 6-18, 2005] This evidence is further confirmation of the claim that cancer treatments are often worse than the disease. Worse yet, there is evidence that only a few cancer patients can clearly benefit from red-blood cell boosting drugs. [Current Opinion Hematology 5: 103-08, 1998] It might be better to use drugs or nutraceuticals that reduce the inflammatory proteins that destroy red blood cells, than to use drugs that boost red blood cell production. One of the reasons these drugs don't work is because of a shortage of available iron.
Are conventional and alternative cancer treatments the only alternatives? As I wrote this book it was taking me somewhere I didn't plan to go- to steering patients away from doctoring, or at least away from life-threatening cancer care. To do that, something else has to be substituted, something beyond the bogus or inappropriate cures offered by alternative medicine. Nutritional medicine can be that cure. Though often relegated to preventing weight loss (wasting) during the progression of cancer, it has now been found that certain foods, spices and herbs can switch cancer genes off.

Comfortably Numb: How Psychiatry Is Medicating a Nation

Researchers in the physiotherapy department at King's College, London, administered a cognitive-behavioral pain management program for patients experiencing chronic pain after cancer treatments such as surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy. A group of patients, most of whom had suffered from breast cancer, were taught cognitive and relaxation techniques and exercise training. They met with a therapist only an average of ten times.

This means that emotional stress may not only trigger or contribute to the development of cancer, but also undermine or reduce the effectiveness of cancer treatments. The German university professor, Ryke Geerd Hamer, M.D., discovered during routine CT scans of over 20,000 cancer patients that each of them had a lesion in a certain part of the brain that looks like concentric rings on a shooting target or like the surface of water after a stone has been dropped into it. This distortion in the brain is known as "HAMER herd".

Breast Cancer Industry A Scam? Support Education, Not Medication

That's partly because the procedure itself irradiates the breast tissue and actually causes cancer, but also because practically any screening result producing a questionable blur on the final image may result in a woman being manipulated through fear into undergoing aggressive, toxic cancer treatments even when they never had breast cancer in the first place. (False positives are extremely common in breast cancer screening, and in some cases, the machinery is incorrectly calibrated and doesn't even meet radiology standards.

All current orthodox cancer treatments damage or destroy the immune system which causes inflammation and makes the body susceptible to other illnesses. If a man had a cancerous tumor removed from his colon and gone through several rounds of chemotherapy but died 4 weeks later from a staph-infection, the death certificate would state he died from an infection, not from cancer. Death resulting from the treatment of cancer occurs far more frequently than death through cancer.
Standard cancer treatments may lower the number of cancer cells to an undetectable level, but this certainly cannot eradicate all cancer cells. As the long the causes of tumor growth remain intact, it may me redevelop at any time and at any rate. Curing cancer has little to do with getting rid of a group of detectable cancer cells. Treatments like chemotherapy and radiation are certainly capable of poisoning or burning many cancer cells, but they also destroy healthy cells in the bone marrow, gastro-intestinal tract, liver, kidneys, heart, lungs, etc.

Common Cervical cancer treatments Raise Risk of Problems in Pregnancy Maria Kyrgiou, MD, department of obstetrics and gynecology, Royal Preston Hospital, London. Steven R. Goldstein, MD, professor of obstetrics and gynecology, New York University School of Medicine, New York City. The Lancet. Some of the most common methods used to treat precancerous cells of the cervix may greatly increase the risks for problems in pregnancy, researchers report. In recent years, cervical screening programs and treatment of precancerous cells have dramatically reduced the incidence of cervical cancer.

If you browse the studies, you'll realize that acemannan from aloe vera accelerates the destruction of cancer tumors, improves survival time and results in far better recovery from toxic cancer treatments. One study shown here demonstrates that acemannan increases cells' production of nitric oxide (NO), an anti-cancer chemical strongly associated with the shrinking of cancer tumors. Essentially, the more nitric oxide you produce (to a point), the less cancer you have, and acemannan increases the production of nitric oxide.

Why health freedom will ultimately overcome Big Pharma mischief and FDA corruption (opinion)

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger

If health insurance covered herbal medicine, acupuncture and naturopathy, we would witness a massive stampede away from doctors, drug companies and toxic cancer treatments. Drug-based medicine is already obsolete And so the big picture here becomes rather obvious. In the minds of most consumers, organized medicine is already obsolete. The Senate and the FDA remain hopelessly stuck in the past, arrogantly tied to a chemical medicine scheme that was outdated two decades ago. But the consumers who stay informed about these things are way ahead of the game.

THE STUDY The study revisited information on 42,000 women who had participated in 78 randomized trials around the world comparing different breast cancer treatments. The analysis was conducted by the Early Breast Cancer Trialists' Collaborative Group. The risk of having a local recurrence was 7% for women who had radiation versus 26% for women who did not. All of the women had first had breast-conserving surgery. At the 15-year mark, 30.5% of the women who had had radiation died versus 35.9% of the women who had not undergone radiation.
Experimental cancer treatments are more beneficial than previously thought. Recent study: Approximately 11%—and in some cases, 27%—of the patients in Phase 1 cancer trials responded positively. Previous reviews showed that only 4% to 6% benefited. Christine Grady, RN, PhD, department of clinical bio-ethics, Warren Grant Magnuson Clinical Center, National Institutes of Health.

You ever notice that when it comes to cancer treatments for such organs, there's a cry to "Save the testicle!" but "Remove the breast!" ? (The word menstruate, by the way, has its roots in Latin, where the word mensis means "month." It has no relational meaning to the modern English word "men.") Men have always dominated Western medicine, and they have always used chemicals and surgeries to control or dominate women.

They're used as adjunctive cancer treatments throughout Asia. In fact, Maitake is approved by the Japanese government for just this purpose. It's especially good for counteracting the toxic effects of radiation and chemotherapy, such as extreme fatigue and nausea. According to my friend Robert Roundtree, M.D., author of Immunotics, maitake extract can shrink tumors in mice; Roundtree also points out that a number of studies in Japan showed that maitake and chemotherapy together can boost the effectiveness of standard chemotherapy for several types of cancer.

Canadian Cancer Society announces national program to prevent cancer using vitamin D

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger

Screening is simply a way to recruit patients into a highly profitable assembly line of cancer treatments which offer no cures and no prevention, only the "management" of the disease so that the maximum profits can be extracted from the patient without actually eliminating their disease. It's quite a clever scam, and it explains why screening is so often offered for free: It's just like a crack dealer offering a free hit, but only once. After you're hooked, you gotta pay.
It should be called, "The Madness of Crowds and the Illusion of cancer treatments in Western Medicine." To not get behind vitamin D is to miss the cancer prevention opportunity of a lifetime. Imagine: For every 100 women that will someday get breast cancer, more than 75 of them could entirely avoid breast cancer through the use of vitamin D. That's 75 women out of 100 who could have their health (and their lives) given back to them through a nutrient that is essentially free. (Add in green tea and some rainforest herbs, and this number leaps to around 90 percent, by the way.

The Secret History of the War on Cancer

More often than physicians even could expect, they gain expertise waiting for cancer treatments. We can't be sure why so many more physicians and researchers are coming down with cancer.8 Ask the researchers themselves and they have strong opinions. One colleague, who told me she would kill me if I used her name, thinks she knows why she got cancer. When multiple myeloma shut down her bone marrow, she survived a life-threatening transplant. Back at work coming up with new drugs for other cancer patients today, she's convinced of what happened.

Why cancer comes back following chemotherapy, radiation or surgery

Mike Adams, the Health Ranger
See article keywords and concepts
Conventional cancer treatments actually harm the patient and the patient's immune system, making it even more difficult to overcome cancer in the future. Chemotherapy harms the immune system and impairs organs such as the brain, liver, and the heart. It's sort of like using TNT to blow out the water leaking through the dam. You destroy the dam at the same time. It leaves the patient unable to stop the progression of the cancer. The real answers to cancer prevention and cure are found in nutrition, exercise, reduction of stress, and avoidance of environmental chemicals and toxins.

Gunpoint medicine: Teenager arrested, jailed for refusing TB treatment at hospital

CPS then took over joint custody of the child and attempted to force the teen to submit to barbaric cancer treatments like radiation and chemotherapy. In this latest example of Gunpoint Medicine, 17-year old Francisco Santos is now being held against his will and will apparently be incarcerated for as long as doctors believe he is a threat to the safety of others. He's also being told he cannot leave until he takes medication. Patients, or Prisoners? As these cases of Gunpoint Medicine clearly demonstrate, you now surrender your rights when you walk into a hospital.
