Cancer is one of the most difficult problems to treat. Many patients do not want to go through the chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy. They have to “weed” through all the alternative claims and try to pick the best one for them. If you do use chemotherapy, remember to use positive visualization to see the chemotherapy as a beautiful chemical that heals you even as you take it. Stay away from all the negatives associated in some people for this treatment. If you want to use “natural” methods, my goal is to attack the vulnerabilities of cancer: No sugar! Optimize your immune system. There is plenty of data that shows how foods and supplements can optimize your immune system. Include vitamin C four times a day for immune support. It is used up quickly which is why you need to take it frequently. Optimize Diet: I work carefully so see what works best. There is no one diet that is best for everyone. I use a green tea supplement that is of the highest quality (organic, young leaves, etc) because of the wealth of information on green tea’s effects on cancer. Make sure you are taking adequate fat-soluble vitamins. Some people do not absorb them well and need to supplement them. Beta-Carotene can be tested with Raman Spectroscopy—But that probably only tells you how many fruits and vegetables can be consumed. The fat solubles need to be taken with fat, and we probably are not getting enough of them. Have your vitamin D tested and optimized. There is research showing that optimizing your vitamin D and A work together to attack cancer. If you can afford it, do nutritional IV’s on a regular basis. Alkalinize your system…there is plenty of data on that. There are plenty of “way out” therapies that may or may not work for some individuals. There are websites that promote their protocols as well. One treatment that may be illegal in your state is the use of cannabis for cancer which had been shown to be effective in some studies. For an extreme viewpoint on how alkalinizing will kill the mold that is “at the center” of the cancer, see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HQuODiMlUsc#t=78 http://simoncini-cancer-center.com/en/presentation REMEMBER: Most studies are using just cancer cells in a lab, or in small animals, so they must be taken with a grain of salt. And don’t forget the value of emotional expression—both laughter and crying have been shown to help your immune system.
