Holistic Cancer Healing and Prevention without Chemotherapy, or Radiation

Every year more and more people with cancer are given chemotherapy. Is it safe? Is it effective? Is it necessary?
"Drugs do not cure, popular opinion notwithstanding. Cure must come from within or there is no cure" M.L. Tyler M.D
In 2017, over 500,000 Americans are expected to die of cancer—more than 1,500 people a day.

Questioning Chemotherapy, A Critique of Toxic Drugs in the Treatment of Cancer

Ralph W. Moss, Ph.D.- "I started as a believer in chemotherapy. As a science writer at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York, I wrote articles praising the latest advances in chemotherapy. Because chemotherapy drugs were general cellular poisons, they could be terribly toxic. They were also very expensive for patients and for society as a whole. When I learned about the links between the pharmaceutical industry and the cancer establishment (later detailed in my book, The Cancer Industry) I understood the commercial reason that such an inadequate modality was so heavily promoted. Conventional cancer therapy is so toxic and dehumanizing that I fear it far more than I fear death from cancer. We know that conventional therapy doesn't work--if it did, you would not fear cancer any more than you fear pneumonia. It is the utter lack of certainty as to the outcome of conventional treatment that virtually screams for more freedom of choice in the area of cancer therapy. "

Dr Eli G Jones, MD"There are about 50,000 people who die of cancer in the United States annually. From my own experience in the treatment of cancer in all its form, for forty years, I feel confident that ninety-five percent of these cases could have been saved without an operation. Over the tombstones of the most of them might be written, "Butchered in the name of science"

Questioning ChemotherapyThe 2010 documentary Cut, Poison, Burn provides revealing insight into the medical monopoly of cancer treatment, as a four year old boy who was diagnosed with brain cancer was compelled to undergo a system of chemo, surgery and radiation, against his parents wishes. He was not allowed access to a proven method of alternative treatment.

The medical systems response was callous. The authorities threatened to take the boy into custody and charged his parents with child abuse if the medical option was not opted for. The boys death certificate states his cause of death as: respiratory failure due to chronic toxicity of chemotherapy.

William Campbell Douglass II, MD - "To understand the utter hypocrisy of chemotherapy, consider the following: The McGill Cancer Center in Canada, one of the largest and most prestigious cancer treatment centers in the world, did a study of oncologists to determine how they would respond to a diagnosis of cancer. On the confidential questionnaire, 58 out of 64 doctors said that all chemotherapy programs were unacceptable to them and their family members.

The overriding reason for this decision was that the drugs are ineffective and have an unacceptable degree of toxicity. These are the same doctors who will tell you that their chemotherapy treatments will shrink your tumor and prolong your life! Thirty years ago, I worked with a radiologist who told me this: "If I get cancer, I'm going to Mexico." So if you get cancer, don't call your doctor; call your travel agent. There are alternative treatments available, but you will have to run the gamut of outraged chemotherapists, radiologists, and surgeons to find one. They will use cajolery, insults, fear, threats ("If you do this, I am off the case"), and misrepresentation to dissuade you."

In one survey, most oncologists specializing in lung cancer reported that they would not take chemotherapy if they had the disease. Yet, everyday these doctors give their patients chemotherapy. In conversation with an investigative reporter, one brain cancer specialist admitted that he would never submit to radiation if he had a brain tumor. Nevertheless, he continues to send patients for radiation, because he would be kicked out of the hospital if he didn't follow the accepted protocol.

Dr. John Gofman, M.D., Ph.D. – a nuclear physicist and a medical doctor, and one of the leading experts in the world on the dangers of radiation – presents compelling evidence in his book, Radiation from Medical Procedures in the Pathogenesis of Cancer and Ischemic Heart Disease that over 50 percent of the death-rate from cancer is in fact induced by x-rays. Medical radiation is a highly important cause (probably the principal cause) of cancer mortality in the United States during the Twentieth Century. The second is that medical radiation, received even at very low and moderate doses, is an important cause of death from Ischemic Heart Disease; the probable mechanism is radiation-induction of mutations in the coronary arteries, resulting in dysfunctional clones (mini-tumors) of smooth muscle cells.

The Immune Response: The Body's Natural Defense

The Cancer Research Institute was founded in 1953 to foster the science of cancer immunology, which is based on the premise that the body's immune system can be mobilized against cancer. This field, which CRI helped pioneer and develop, has been recognized throughout the world as offering great hope for the ultimate prevention and treatment of human cancer. The immune response is the body's way of defending itself against foreign substances that invade it to cause infection or disease. The immune system's job is a complicated process that involves the coordinated efforts of several types of white blood cells.

According to Dr. George C Pack, MD, a cancer specialist at Cornell medical School, almost everyone has cancer cells present at times in our bodies. If our immune system is working properly, these cells are killed or reabsorbed by our defense system before they begin to grow and threaten our health.

The holistic approach treats the whole person, ignites the body's internal healing force and stimulates the body's natural abilities to heal itself. The only real defense against cancer is the immune system. Everyone gets cancer every day but if the immune system is where it should be those cancer cells are eliminated and we never know it. Once a person has developed cancer, even though treatments get it into remission, it will recur again unless the body conditions that allowed it to develop in the first place are corrected.

The Prime Cause of Cancer is Not Genetic

Cancer is Not Genetic In 2006, the heads of the world's largest cancer research center in Houston, Texas, announced that cancer's prime cause isn't genetic: "'If it could have happened [solving cancer with genetics], it would have already happened with genetic mutations,' said William Brinkley, a senior vice-president at Baylor who says other research should take precedence over the cancer genome project.

Dr John Mendelsohn [president of M. D. Anderson Cancer Center] states, 'Any claims that this [genetic research] is going to be the key to curing cancer are not appropriate.'" Thus, the prime cause of cancer is not a genetic mutation. Even if cancer "runs in your family", there is real hope. Unfortunately, the geneticists have it backwards, attempting to force the facts to fit their genetics-based theories when they don't fit the facts, because, as Professor Harris demonstrated many years ago, cancer isn't genetically dominant. Where does this leave us? Where can we look for solutions? What about the popular nutritional solutions to fighting cancer?

"...What is shocking to most people, the scientific fact that cancer is genetically recessive, not dominant. In fact, the human body is highly resistant to cancer." In 1969, Professor Henry Harris of Oxford University shook the cancer research community to its core when he proved these previous theories wrong. Professor Harris took normal tissue cells and fused three types of cancer cells to them. Surely, he thought, the cancer cells would take over the normal cells and "convert" them into cancer. Surprisingly, they grew normally.

Contrary to popular opinion, cancer takes several decades to develop in humans. Given this long incubation period, science can show us the way to destroy any initial pre-cancerous cells and keep the cancerous ones from causing widespread damage. If you think cancer has a genetic basis, then think again.

Dr Robert A. Weinberg of Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), one of the world's leading cancer researchers and discoverer of the so-called oncogene (cancer-causing gene), reversed his previous conclusions after discovering that "fewer than one DNA base in a million appears to have been mis-copied". It's not enough of a defect! His exact words: "Something was very wrong. The notion that a cancer developed through the successive activation of a series of oncogenes had lost its link to reality." He called the genetic discoveries made thus far "sterile". The prime cause of cancer is therefore not genetic. This was announced in 1998. Did you hear about it? Probably not.

Cancer is Big Business

Cancer is big business. Despite massive public screening campaigns and talk of cures, cancer rates continue to soar, and certain companies not only profit from making the chemicals that cause cancer, but also from selling the drugs that treat it. In 2015, there will be an estimated 1,658,370 new cancer cases diagnosed and 589,430 cancer deaths in the US. despite the best conventional cancer treatments of chemotherapy, and radiation. More people are diagnosed with cancer and more people are dying year after year.

 The International Agency for Research on Cancer which is part of the World Health Organization lists nine chemotherapy drugs and two "combinational therapies" as known human carcinogens. Another nine drugs are listed as "probable" and 10 as "possible" carcinogens. Chemotherapy -- the use of potent drugs to kill cancerous cells -- is more than 60 years old.

The first such drugs were nitrogen mustards, originally developed as chemical warfare agents. Modern chemotherapy drugs are so strong, by necessity, that they can cause secondary cancers in patients to a healthy person, they're poison.

For decades, experts say, most health care workers were oblivious to the risks posed to them by these and other drugs, which attack good cells as well as bad. By the 1970s, The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) says in its alert, "the carcinogenicity of several chemotherapy drugs in animals was well established. Likewise, a number of researchers during this period linked the therapeutic use of certain drugs in humans to subsequent leukemia and other cancers.

Many in health care began to question whether occupational exposure to these agents was hazardous." Last March, the federal government issued an unusually detailed alert to the nation's 5.5 million health care workers: The powerful drugs used in chemotherapy can themselves cause cancer and pose a risk to nurses, pharmacists and others who handle them. A housekeeper who dumps the contents of a bedpan into a toilet might not realize that the waste is toxic. "Sometimes, 80 percent of the active ingredient [in a drug] goes right through the patient's system," said Borwegen, who also served on the NIOSH work group.

8 Alternative Options to Fight Cancer

Home base business opportunity Dr. Marc Sircus - "The best way to treat cancer is to stimulate the body's own resources to destroy the invading intruders, the colonies of yeast and fungus that cancer is. This fundamental methodology makes much more common sense than the FDA's and pharmaceutical industries poisonous slash and burn methods of chemotherapy and radiation which appear to kill more people than it cures. It has been said by many that drugs don't heal the body heals itself when properly nurtured, strengthened, and led to do so by concentrated nutritional substances and a careful confrontation with attitudes and life conflicts that are undermining the immune system."

Most alternative therapies regardless of potential or proven benefit, are outlawed, which forces patients to submit to the failures that we know don't work, because there's no other choice. Listed below are 8 alternative options that complement each other:

Bitter Melon For Cancer Remission

According to medical research, the bitter melon fruit and vine is reported to possess anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, anti-diabetic, anti-bacterial, anti-obesity, and immunomodulatory activities. The plant extract inhibits cancer cell growth by inducing apoptosis, cell cycle arrest, autophagy and inhibiting cancer stem cells. The plant is rich in bioactive chemical constituents like cucurbitane type triterpenoids, triterpene glycosides, phenolic acids, flavonoids, essential oils, saponins, fatty acids, and proteins.

Bitter melon, also known as bitter gourd, bitter pear melon, karela, ampalaya, balsam pear, bitter apple, wild cucumber, cindeamor, carilla plant, African cucumber, margose, concombre African, and the herbs Kuguazi (China) and Karela (Pakistan), is common in Asia as well as in Southern California and southern Florida.

The bitter melon plant has been used in China as a treatment for diabetes, tumors, and immune disorders. In Asia and in the U.S., there has been community interest in the use of the plant as an alternative therapy for AIDS.

Extracts from the whole fruit have been shown to have anti-cancer properties in mice. The authors of this study suggest that the anti-cancer properties may be due in part to an enhancement of immune function induced by the bitter melon. Another study has shown that bitter melon extracts suppressed lymphocyte proliferation and macrophage and lymphocyte activity in mice.

This leafy plant bears fruit which looks like a bumpy cucumber. The fruit, seeds, leaves, flowers, stems, and roots of this plant have been used in Chinese medicine for treating gastrointestinal infections, as an appetite stimulant, to decrease blood sugar in diabetics, and to induce abortion in mid-term pregnancy.

Glutathione in the Fight Against Cancer

Glutathione is of major significance in cellular antioxidant activity in what Meister called the "GSH antioxidant system" because it participates directly in the destruction of reactive oxygen compounds and also because it maintains in reduced form adsorbate (vitamin C) and a-tocopherol (vitamin E), which also exerts a. antioxidant effect

Dr. Allan Somersall M.D - "To raise glutathione levels is to reduce premature oxidation, to quench destructive free radicals and help detoxify the poisons inside each cell when it needs to. Only Immunocal is clinically proven to do that in a safe, effective and convenient way.

"The incidence and mortality rates from most cancers increase exponentially with age. It is likely that this aging phenomenon is partially due to specific changes that occur in the host resulting in an increased susceptibility to neoplasia. Our hypothesis is that one such host factor is a deficiency in GSH glutathione, based on the importance of this compound in the detoxification of a wide variety of exogenous and endogenous carcinogens and free radicals, as well as in the maintenance of immune function."

Cancer and Magnesium Deficiency

It is generally accepted that a higher magnesium intake in the drinking water is associated with reduced cancer incidence, and reduced frequency of cardiac infarction. Information is scarce about the relationship between cancer and magnesium but researchers from the School of Public Health at the University of Minnesota have just concluded that diets rich in magnesium reduced the occurrence of colon cancer.

A previous study from Sweden reported that women with the highest magnesium intake had a 40 per cent lower risk of developing the cancer than those with the lowest intake of the mineral. Preliminary data also suggests a relationship between low intake of magnesium and kidney cancer. The School of Public Health at the Kaohsiung Medical College in, Taiwan, found that magnesium also exerts a protective effect against gastric cancer.

Cancer-Prevention and Cure with Omega-3 Fats

After three decades of research Dr. Budwig, six-time nominee for the Nobel Award, found that the blood of seriously ill cancer patients was always, without exception, deficient in certain important essential ingredients which included Blood analysis showed a strange greenish-yellow substance in place of the healthy red oxygen carrying hemoglobin that belongs there. This explained why cancer patients weaken and become anemic This startling discovery led Dr. Budwig to test her theory. She found that when these natural ingredients where replaced over approximately a three month period, tumors gradually receded. The strange greenish elements in the blood were replaced with healthy red blood cells as the phosphatides and lipoproteins almost miraculously reappeared. Weakness and anemia disappeared and life energy was restored. Symptoms of cancer, liver dysfunction and diabetes were completely alleviated.

Dr. Budwig then discovered an all natural way for people to replace those essential ingredients their bodies so desperately needed in their daily diet. By simply eating a combination of just two natural and delicious foods not only can cancer be prevented but in case after case it was actually cured. These two natural foods, Flaxseed Oil and Essential Fatty Acids organic flaxseed oil, and cottage cheese must be eaten together to be effective since one triggers the properties of the other to be released. After more than 10 years of solid clinical application, Dr. Budwig's natural formula has proven successful where many orthodox remedies have failed.

The blood of a healthy person always contains substances called phosphatides and lipoproteins in sufficient quantities of these essential ingredients. However, without these natural ingredients cancer cells grow wild and out of control.

The miracle of EFA "oxygen magnets"

Think of these polyunsaturated EFAs as "oxygen magnets". The proof of this fact is buried in the world's leading medical textbooks and medical journals such as Harper's Illustrated Biochemistry, 26th edition,40 and Human Nutrition Clinical Nutrition, July 1984.41 EFAs are integral to the structure and function of cellular respiration. Without high respiration efficiency, cancer is soon to follow. These EFA oxygen magnets in the cell membrane attract the oxygen that's in the bloodstream and transfer it into the cell, just like little oxygen sponges. This process is supposed to be happening in each of the body's 100 trillion cells. So, no matter how much you breathe or exercise, if you don't have the proper functional EFAs at the cellular level then your cells will not absorb enough oxygen from your bloodstream and you will be that much more susceptible to cancer.

Dr Otto Warburg discovered and clearly stated that the prime, most basic, cause of cancer is too little oxygen getting into the cell. "We find by experiment about 35% inhibition of oxygen respiration already suffices to bring about such a transformation during cell growth," he stated at a 1966 conference of Nobel laureates in Lindau, Germany.

Medicinal Mushrooms: An Exploration of Tradition, Healing, and Culture

 The use of Maitake mushrooms and other types of mushrooms for medicinal purposes can be traced to the Han dynasty (206 BC to 220 AD).  Ganoderma (Reshi) mushroom has been used as folk medicine since ancient times and it is a popular health food frequently promoted as a cancer cure. It is now well established from in vitro and animal studies that the polyshaccharide fraction of Ganoderma is largely responsible for its anti-tumor efficacy. Indications for Ganoderma use in cancer include supplementation a) to reduce side-effects during chemotherapy or radiotherapy, b) to prolonging survival and minimize metastasis, c) to improve quality of life, and d) to prevent occurrence or recurrence.

Throughout the world, people have utilized medicinal mushrooms for immune enhancement and for the improvement of health. Clinical research shows Agaricus Blazei Murill, which is rich in beta glucans and other immune-enhancing components, has the following affects: + Enhance natural killer cell and T-cell activity Activates various immune cells to attack tumor cells + Provides strong anti-tumor and regulatory effects upon the immune system + Contains the highest level of beta glucan of all Oriental mushrooms.

Fish oil supplementation for Cancer Patients

Chemotherapy and other conventional medical treatments have proven ineffective in improving quality of life and survival of patients with end stage cancer. Now Greek medical researchers report that fish oil supplementation markedly increases the survival time for cancer patients with generalized malignancy. Their study involved 60 patients with generalized solid tumors. The patients were divided into two groups with one group receiving 18 grams/day of fish oil (six capsules of MAXEPA three times daily containing 170 mg eicosapentaenoic acid [EPA] and 115 mg docosahexaenoic acid [DHA] per capsule) and the other group receiving a placebo. The fish oil group also received 200 mg of vitamin E daily to compensate for the oxidative effect of the fish oil. Each group included 15 well-nourished and 15 malnourished patients. None of the well-nourished patients suffered from cancer cachexia (abnormally low weight and general weakness).

The researchers measured the level of T cells, natural killer cells, and the synthesis of interleukin and tumor necrosis factor before the start of the supplementation and on day 40 of the trial. The study followed all patients until they died. Malnourished patients were found to have a considerably impaired immune function and a decreased production of tumor necrosis factor both parameters were restored through fish oil supplementation.

Marine Phytoplankton: Tumor and Cancer

Marine phytoplankton has been called "the most nutritionally dense foods on the planet". Patients receiving a cancer drug together with phytoplankton exhibited response rates up to 250 percent better that those obtained by the drug alone. These advanced cancer patients experienced regressions of malignant melanoma, renal cell carcinoma, colorectal carcinoma, lung cancer, and other types of cancer. Its antioxidants and unique polysaccharides can halt the genetic mutations that can lead to cancer. Both high levels of saccharides and adaptogen's increase energy and stamina by improving our animal's ability to consume and use oxygen.

At the University of Rhode Island, professor Yuzuru Shimizu is developing a culturing system that will ensure an adequate supply of sea-based organisms that show anti-tumor properties. Shimizu is examining metabolites of single-celled plankton called dinoflagellates, which National Cancer Institute tests have shown to have cancer-fighting potential. When Tom Harper, the owner of a facility that grows marine phytoplankton, was diagnosed with a terminal form of lung cancer, intuition compelled him to turn to the phytoplankton. After eating small quantities of this strange substance, he found his health rapidly restored. Not only was the cancer a thing of his past, but his life-long challenge to maintain a healthy weight was finally achieved, and he was able to eliminate his use of insulin - a product that he had been dependent on for 17 years.

Marine PhytoPlankton could prevent skin cancer - Scientists from Heinrich Heine University in Germany and TNO Nutrition and Food Research Institute in the Netherlands have reported their findings in the latest edition of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS).

Pancreatic Cancer and Enzymes

A study, published in the journal Pancreas, found that mice treated with pancreatic enzymes survived significantly longer than those that did not. Tumor growth in the enzyme-treated group was also significantly slower. Five years ago, a pilot study of human cancer patients by one of the study authors, Nicholas Gonzalez, M.D., was published in the journal Nutrition and Cancer. Gonzalez later received a $1.4 million federal grant for a Phase III prospective clinical trial involving enzymes for pancreatic cancer. This multi-year study is ongoing.

 According to Dr. William Donald Kelley, D.D.S., M.S. in his book, "Cancer: Curing the Incurable," at least 86% of all cancer conditions could be adequately treated and/or prevented by diet and pancreatic enzymes. He further states that cancer is a symptom of inadequate and deficient protein metabolism. Early in the 20th century, Dr. John Beard of the University of Edinburgh, discovered that the bodys primary mechanism for destroying cancer is contained in pancreatin, a secretion from the pancreas that, among other things, includes enzymes for digesting protein. Enzymes digest or liquefy foods for absorption by the body.

The use of large doses of pancreatic enzymes containing Pancreatin, Trypsin, Chymotripsin, Papain, and Bromelain is undergoing a 5-year phase III clinical trial in the USA. This is called Gonzalez Regimen, after Dr. Nicholas Gonzalez, MD, of New York [who based his work on the research of John Beard and William Donald Kelley, see further down]. The trial is being funded and conducted by the National Cancer Institute of USA. The funding decision was based on the results of a 1993 pilot study in which patients lived an average seventeen (17) and a half (1/2) months – nearly triple of what is expected for most patients with advanced pancreatic cancer.

Toxemia and Cancer - Why Internal Cleansing?

Dr. Joseph Rodrigo M.D - "Almost all diseases begin in the digestive track. This includes diabetes, asthma, cancer, Alzheimer's, heart disease, memory loss, fibromyalgia, MS, and too many to even list here. If you are seeking health, and you have not found the answers to your recovery and healing, start here. Your intestinal track is the origin of disease, and it is also the origin of your healing. I cannot emphasize enough how important the cleansing of your digestive system is, to your health."

Shirley (author of this website) also overcame a lifetime of ill health without chemo, radiation or surgery and lost 60 lbs in 3months effortlessly. The relationship between unhealthy eating and the development of disease is undeniable. When most people get a cancer diagnosis their doctors are quick to prescribe drugs and harsh treatments such as radiation, chemotherapy, and surgery. All of these treatments have a harrowing effect on the body opening it up to a whole host of other problems.

Dr. H. H. Boeker M.D. believed that over 90 percent of diseases are caused or complicated by toxins created in the intestinal tract by unhealthy foods that are not properly eliminated." Auto-intoxication occurs when, due to poor elimination, certain toxins escape from the bowel into the blood stream and poison the body, causing a silent form of self-poisoning.

Substances that are toxic to our bodies come at us from all directions: the air we breathe, the food we eat, the water we drink, the cleaning products we use, and the metabolic waste produced inside us. Toxins build up in the body faster than they can be removed, contributing to premature aging and chronic and degenerative diseases.

VelociTea Detox Tea is a unique herbal blend of safe, all-natural ingredients designed to gently cleanse the digestive tract and detoxify the body. Its name is taken from the traditional name of one of the ingredients, a widely-used medicinal herb known as Holy Thistle.

The Politics of Cancer

 "The National Cancer Institute and the American Cancer Society have misled and confused the public and Congress by repeated false claims that we are winning the war against cancer -- claims made to create public and Congressional support for massive increases in budgetary appropriations." Samuel Epstein MD

"The medical establishment works closely with the drug multinationals whose main objective is profits, and whose worst nightmare would be an epidemic of good health. Lots of drugs MUST be sold. In order to achieve this, anything goes: lies, fraud, and kickbacks. Doctors are the principal salespeople of the drug companies. They are rewarded with research grants, gifts, and lavish perks. The principal buyers are the public - from infants to the elderly - who MUST be thoroughly medicated and vaccinated...at any cost! Why do the authorities forbid alternative medicine? Because they are serving the industry, and the industry cannot make money with herbs, vitamins, and homeopathy. They cannot patent natural remedies. That is why they push synthetics. They control medicine, and that is why they are able to tell medical schools what they can and cannot teach." Guylaine Lanctot, M.D

When Healing Becomes a Crime: The Amazing Story of the Hoxsey Cancer Clinics

The Amazing Story of the Hoxsey Cancer Clinics Harry Hoxsey claimed to cure cancer using herbal remedies, and thousands of patients swore that he healed them. His Texas clinic became the world's largest privately owned cancer center with branches in seventeen states, and the value of its therapeutic treatments was upheld by two federal courts.

Even his arch-nemesis, the AMA, admitted his treatment was effective against some forms of cancer. But the medical establishment refused an investigation, branding Hoxsey the worst cancer quack of the century and forcing his clinic to Tijuana, Mexico, where it continues to claim very high success rates. Modern laboratory tests have confirmed the anticancer properties of Hoxsey's herbs, and a federal government-sponsored report is now calling for a major reconsideration of the Hoxsey therapy.

When Healing Becomes a Crime exposes the overall failure of the War on Cancer, while revealing how yesterday's "unorthodox" treatments are emerging as tomorrow's medicine.

NOTE: The Hoxcey Formula has been renamed as "Alternative Compound"

Skin Cancer Epidemic - Cansema Black Salve and Tumors or Skin Cancer

The United States is in the midst of a of skin cancer epidemic, according to a report in from the Mayo Clinic. The report goes on to state, One in five Americans will develop skin cancer, and a person's risk of the disease doubles if that person has had five or more sunburns, according to the Mayo statistics. Basal and squamous cell carcinomas, the most common and treatable types of skin cancers, had long been considered a problem only for people over 50, according to the report. But Mayo researchers report that percentage of women under 40 with the more common type, basal cell, tripled between 1976 and 2003, while the rate of squamous cell cancers increased 400 percent.

The standard procedure for skin cancer treatment in US hospitals is surgery, chemotherapy, and even radiation, with no significant cure rate! While there are many variations of the Black Salve herbal compound, the man who first spread the word about and healing from black salve was a man named Harry Hoxsey, founder of the "Hoxsey Method". Hoxsey is the great-grandson of John Hoxsey, an American physician who discovered a remarkably effective cancer cure in 1840 after watching horses with cancer cure themselves by grazing on specific herbs they instinctively searched out.

Melanoma can be beaten, 7 survivors tell how they beat Melanoma, even at stage 4

For over three decades, Harry Hoxsey (1901-1974), a self-taught healer, cured many cancer patients using an herbal remedy reportedly handed down by his great-grandfather. By the 1950s, the Hoxsey Cancer Clinic in Dallas was the world's largest private cancer center, with branches in seventeen states. Born in Illinois, the charismatic practitioner of herbal folk medicine faced unrelenting opposition and harassment from a hostile medical establishment. Nevertheless, two federal courts upheld the "therapeutic value" of Hoxsey's internal tonic.

Even his archenemies, the American Medical Association and the Food and Drug Administration, admitted that his treatment could cure some forms of cancer. A Dallas judge ruled in federal court that Hoxsey's therapy was "comparable to surgery, radium, and x-ray" in its effectiveness, without the destructive side effects of those treatments. But in the 1950s, at the tail end of the McCarthy era, Hoxsey's clinics were shut down. The AMA, NCI, and FDA organized a "conspiracy" to "suppress" a fair, unbiased assessment of Hoxsey's methods, according to a 1953 federal report to Congress. Hoxsey's Dallas clinic closed its doors in 1960, and three years later, at Hoxsey's request, Mildred Nelson, R.N., his long-time chief nurse, moved the operation to Tijuana, Mexico.

Revisiting Accepted Wisdom in the Management of Breast Cancer

Misconceptions and illusions prevail in the management of breast cancer." "Despite evidence that mastectomy, radiation following lumpectomy, axillary node dissection, or intensive follow-up surveillance have little impact on survival, these practices are adhered to tenaciously. The extent to which current treatment for breast cancer succeeds in prolonging life remains open to question. Many accepted ideas and interventions are perilously disconnected from their true merit. The imperative for doctors to do something sometimes contradicts their pledge to do no harm. Read the testimonial of complete breast cancer recovery with no-drugs nutritional methods
