"His research concluded that fermentation of sugars at the cellular level is present in all cancers: Cancer is caused by the cellular environment. Genetic defects do not create the capacity for human cells to metabolize nutrients without oxygen. Limiting the oxygen supply or disrupting the citric acid cycle leads to fermentation ... As soon as oxygen reaches the cells, the citric acid cycle can be reestablished, fermentation stops, and microbial life destroyed.8 Cancer, above all else, is a cellular oxygen deficiency disease. The research of Dr." - Ron Garner, Conscious Health: A Complete Guide to Wellness Through Natural Means (Get the book.) "It prevents constipation, hemorrhoids, and diverticulitis, and may play a role in controlling weight, regulating blood sugars, and reducing the risk of heart disease and some cancers. Fiber absorbs many times its weight in water, resulting in softer, bulkier stools. When extra fiber is added to the diet, the intake of water should be increased also. There are two kinds of fiber: soluble and insoluble—neither of which is broken-down for nutritional purposes. Soluble fiber forms a gel when mixed with a liquid and functions to keep the stools soft for easy passage through the colon." - Ron Garner, Conscious Health: A Complete Guide to Wellness Through Natural Means (Get the book.)

"In particular, breast MRIs for suspicious or especially dense mammograms and advancements in needle biopsies have allowed precancerous lesions (hyperplasia and cancer in situ) and early cancers to be detected, and treatments have become more effective. The fact remains that most women who develop breast cancer will die from heart disease and suffer from menopausal symptoms like any other woman. So what should you do if you are a woman who has beaten breast cancer? To begin with, you need to learn why you developed cancer and what you can do to prevent its recurrence in the future." - Phuli Cohan, The Natural Hormone Makeover: 10 Steps to Rejuvenate Your Health and Rediscover Your Inner Glow (Get the book.)

"The basic premise of his work is that cancers can be eliminated by frequencies tuned to the individual electromagnetic signature of that particular disease. The medical establishment and self-appointed quack busters really dislike these machines which cost close 'Following the Baseline of Health program is the best single method available for preventing cancer from taking root in your body. It also offers the best base from which to launch any program intended to teverse cancer once it has, in fact, taken root." - Jon Barron, Lessons from The Miracle Doctors: A Step-by-Step Guide to Optimum Health and Relief from Catastrophic Illness (Get the book.)

"Harmful metabolites place you at greater risk for hormone-related cancers. Genetics play a big role here. How you break down hormones is handed down in your genes. Fortunately, genetic tendencies can be helped with the right dietary choices and supplements. Diet, properly used supplements, and changes in your environment can help ensure that hormones will act safely inside your body. 9. Taper off support (or not). With proper nutritional, supplemental, and lifestyle supports, your body will be brought back into balance. Your body may produce more of its own hormones." - Phuli Cohan, The Natural Hormone Makeover: 10 Steps to Rejuvenate Your Health and Rediscover Your Inner Glow (Get the book.)

"Chemotherapy does not eliminate breast, colon or lung cancers. This fact has been documented for over a decade. Yet doctors still use chemotherapy for these tumors... Women with breast cancer are likely to die faster with chemo than without it." ?Alan Levin, M.D." - Andreas Moritz, Cancer Is Not A Disease - It's A Survival Mechanism (Get the book.)

"They are probably preferable to the synthetic and animal preparations and might have fewer negative health consequences; however, we can't say that they don't cause the cancers and other negative health consequences that have been shown with HRT. Since they are the same thing, I suspect they do. HERBS AND SUPPLEMENTS Studies of herbs and supplements for the treatment of hot flashes have not shown consistent results. Soy, black cohosh, dong quai root, and evening primrose oil have all been promoted for hot flashes." - J. Douglas Bremner, Before You Take that Pill: Why the Drug Industry May Be Bad for Your Health (Get the book.)

"In the 1990s, manufacturers in Quincy Washington, intentionally sold toxic industrial waste to farmers as fertilizer, causing an eruption of cancers, brain tumors and pulmonary disease. Farmers in India recently started spraying their cotton and chili fields with Coca-Cola. They say it kills pests just as well as chemicals but costs less. In India, reports Vandana Shiva, tens of thousands of debt-ridden farmers have committed suicide, many by drinking pesticides. In the late 1990s, scientists investigated the phenomenon of longan trees producing fruits totally out of season." - Adam Leith Gollne, The Fruit Hunters: A Story of Nature, Adventure, Commerce and Obsession (Get the book.)

"OCPs reduce the risks of ovarian and uterine (endometrial) cancers. They also reduce the risk of anemia by reducing the loss of iron in menses, pelvic inflammatory disease, and osteoporosis (since estrogen promotes the laying down of calcium in the bones). The pill has no long-term effect on fertility. OCPs are safe for teenage girls to use, with the exception of Depo-Provera, which I mentioned on page 238. The Bottom Line on Contraceptives Use an OCP with low doses of estradiol (< 50 meg). Taking an OCP is safe for women who don't smoke." - J. Douglas Bremner, Before You Take that Pill: Why the Drug Industry May Be Bad for Your Health (Get the book.) "Pamidronate and zoledronate are used intravenously for the treatment of cancers, primarily breast cancer with bone metastases and myeloma. So are bisphosphonates helpful? Several studies performed in a total of 12,831 postmenopausal women with t scores of less than -2.5 (i.e., with osteoporosis) or less than -2.0 (close to the osteoporosis cutoff) looked at the ability of these drugs when compared with placebos to prevent fractures over the course of one to five years." - J. Douglas Bremner, Before You Take that Pill: Why the Drug Industry May Be Bad for Your Health (Get the book.)

"The forms of cancer that appear to be best prevented by green tea are cancers of the gastrointestinal tract, including cancers of the pancreas, stomach, small intestine, and colon; and lung, breast, and prostate cancer.4 Green tea can be consumed as a beverage made from either loose green tea leaves or tea bags. However, you must be aware that drinking three cups of green tea provides about the same dose of caffeine as one cup of coffee. Drinking green tea or taking caffeine-containing extract may be overstimulating, leading to such symptoms as nervousness, anxiety, insomnia, and irritability." - Michael T. Murray, Beat Diabetes Naturally: The Best Foods, Herbs, Supplements, and Lifestyle Strategies to Optimize Your Diabetes Care (Get the book.)

"However, the soldiers who ate foods heated in microwave ovens also developed cancers of the blood, just like radar technicians. As a result of this discovery, the use of microwave ovens was banned in the entire Third Reich. Are microwaves any saver today than they were 80 years ago? Certainly not; they are the same microwaves. Microwaves rip apart the molecular bonds that make food the nourishing substance that it is." - Andreas Moritz, Cancer Is Not A Disease - It's A Survival Mechanism (Get the book.) "Once diagnosed, the vast majority of cancers are never given a chance to disappear on their own. They are promptly targeted with an arsenal of deadly weapons such as chemotherapy drugs, radiation, and the surgical knife. "Sleeping" tumors that would never really cause much harm to the body, may now be aroused into powerful defensive reactions and become aggressive, not unlike relatively harmless bacteria that turn into dangerous superbugs when attacked by antibiotic medication." - Andreas Moritz, Cancer Is Not A Disease - It's A Survival Mechanism (Get the book.)

"Few new, effective treatments have been devised for the most common cancers." And the Most Shocking Fact of All The April 15, 1998 Journal of the American Medical Association reported that there are more than 2,000,000 drug "reactions" annually in the United States, and that more than 100,000 of those reactions are fatal. This makes prescription drugs the fourth leading cause of death in America. But the reality is actually far worse. • These numbers only count drugs that are prescribed correctly and at the right dose." - Jon Barron, Lessons from The Miracle Doctors: A Step-by-Step Guide to Optimum Health and Relief from Catastrophic Illness (Get the book.)

"Flax meal is high in lignans and can reduce your risk of hormone cancers by improving estrogen metabolism, lowering cholesterol, and regulating your digestion. Bacteria in your gut convert lignans into two substances, enterodiol and enterolactone. Studies have shown that high levels of these substances are associated with a lower incidence of osteoporosis, heart disease, and breast, uterine, and ovarian cancer." - Phuli Cohan, The Natural Hormone Makeover: 10 Steps to Rejuvenate Your Health and Rediscover Your Inner Glow (Get the book.)

"Hepatitis B is thought to be associated with an increased risk of some liver cancers. Even some psychiatric conditions, such as schizophrenia and certain types of obsessive-compulsive disorder, are believed to be directly or indirectly the result of infections. And scientists are now finding tentative links between viral infections and obesity as well. A recent report from the American Society of Microbiology highlights how widely this "new germ theory" applies to some thirty viral and bacterial microorganisms for which there exists strong evidence of an association to chronic disease." - Donna Jackson Nakazawa, The Autoimmune Epidemic (Get the book.) "Statistically, Jan's chances of having APS at the age of forty-nine were greater than her risk of having ovarian cancer or leukemia—uncommon cancers that physicians routinely test for when telling symptoms appear. In fact, recent studies reveal that antiphospholipid antibodies are found in 2 to 5 percent of the population." - Donna Jackson Nakazawa, The Autoimmune Epidemic (Get the book.)

"It is typically recommended that everyone over age 50 have a colonoscopy to screen for intestinal cancers and polyps early. With early detection comes a high survival rate (90%) for cancerous lesions. The screening methods used by the medical profession are as follows: 1. A fecal occult blood test simply checks a stool sample for blood. If blood is present other factors need to be ruled out such as hemorrhoids, polyps or other conditions. 2. A sigmoidoscopy is a diagnostic tool that looks at the last two feet of the colon. It is a flexible lighted tube. 3." - Heather Caruso, Your Drug-Free Guide to Digestive Health (Get the book.) "One was that low doses of Arsenic cure some cancers. We all know Arsenic is a poison in crude doses and actually causes symptoms like cancer. Diluted doses cure the symptoms it causes. Homeopaths have been preaching this for years! The Minimum Dose Another principle of homeopathic medicine is to use the smallest dose required to ellicit a cure. This is called the minimum dose. Homeopathic remedies are very diluted and carry an energetic quality to them, due to their preparation. Between each dilution remedies are succussed, which means shaken, 10 times." - Heather Caruso, Your Drug-Free Guide to Digestive Health (Get the book.)

"Such behavior has close parallels with cancer. When cancers become malignant, they can grow very fast, with no regard for the rest of the organism. They are part of the body, yet in many respects behave as if they were completely separate. They are also somewhat stupid: if a cancer is successful, it may kill its host, and hence itself. Similarly, the human population has been growing rapidly and with little regard for its environment. We are a part of the earth's biosphere and totally dependent on it, yet we behave as if we were quite separate from it." - Peter Russell, Waking Up In Time: Finding Inner Peace In Times of Accelerating Change (Get the book.)

"Up until the late twentieth century, health professionals believed that cancers and such chronic diseases as peptic ulcers were probably caused by a combination of genetics, diet, stress, and other lifestyle factors. But researchers now know that most peptic ulcers are caused by an infection with the bacterium Helicobacter pylori and can be treated with antibiotics. Treating patients surgically, it turns out, has been completely unnecessary. Infection with human papillomavirus, the cause of genital warts, is now known to be the major cause of cervical cancer." - Donna Jackson Nakazawa, The Autoimmune Epidemic (Get the book.)

"Age-adjusted rates of the four most common cancers (lung, breast, prostate, and colon) are all much higher in the developed countries, and increase when diets change or people move from less to more developed countries. Another study compared the diet of 2000 people who developed colon cancer with a control group of the same number. Eating a "Western diet"—associated with a higher body mass index and a greater intake of calories and dietary cholesterol—was twice as common among those diagnosed with colon cancer, and the association was strongest among people diagnosed at a younger age." - John Abramson, Overdosed America: The Broken Promise of American Medicine (P.S.) (Get the book.) "Adding progestin did, in fact, eliminate the risk of uterine cancer but caused an extra 19 breast cancers per 1000 women over 10 years. In other words, the problem of uterine cancer was "solved" by adding a drug that increased a woman's overall risk of getting other types of cancer. The estrogen-only part of the Women's Health Initiative Study was ended prematurely, in February 2004. Researchers concluded that after almost seven years, the women taking estrogen had more strokes and fewer broken hips than the women taking placebos." - John Abramson, Overdosed America: The Broken Promise of American Medicine (P.S.) (Get the book.) "Though 18 cancers were predicted over the time that the women had been taking estrogen, none developed. Wilson concluded that hormone pills "are prophylactic to breast and genital cancer." In his best-selling book, Feminine Forever, published in 1966, Wilson wrote with the authority of a medical scientist, communicating a message of unbridled fear that untreated menopause marked the beginning of a rapid decline in appearance, sexuality, health, and overall quality of life. Dr." - John Abramson, Overdosed America: The Broken Promise of American Medicine (P.S.) (Get the book.)

"VITAMIN C AND CANCER Vitamin C is well known to reduce the risk of contracting a wide variety of cancers. In many cases, a healthy diet can provide enough vitamin C to be protective against cancer. This is the basis for the dietary guidelines endorsed by the National Cancer Institute and the U.S. Department of Agriculture, which recommend at least five servings of fruit and vegetables daily. Study results vary widely for breast cancer with some studies showing no protective effect and other studies showing a strong protective effect with intakes over 200 mg per day." - Dr. Steve Blake, Vitamins and Minerals Demystified (Get the book.)

"It should be noted that in 2002, Doll finally admitted that most cancers, other than those related to smoking and hormones, "are induced by exposure to chemicals, often environmental". The worldwide cancer establishments share major responsibility for losing the winnable war against cancer, a fact that is all the more serious in view of the strong influence that U.S. cancer establishment policies continue to exert on other nations worldwide." - Samuel S. Epstein, Randall Fitzgerald, Toxic Beauty: How Cosmetics and Personal Care Products Endanger Your Health . . . And What You Can Do about It (Get the book.)

"These results suggest that omega-3 PUFAs decrease the risk of several cancers. Colorectal Cancer United Kingdom public health officials studied the relationship between omega-3s and certain forms of cancer. Mortality data for breast and colorectal cancer in 24 European countries were correlated with current fish and fish oil consumption and with consumption 10 and 23 years previously. In males, there was an inverse correlation between colorectal cancer mortality and current intake of fish, a weaker correlation with fish consumption 10 years earlier, and none with consumption 23 years earlier." - Freedom Press, Natural Cancer Cures: The Definitive Guide to Using Dietary Supplements to Fight and Prevent Cancer (Get the book.)

"Yes, we have made progress in the treatment of a few cancers, especially for children. However, those cancers are uncommon (although their incidence has gone up considerably the past two decades), while the common cancers, e.g., lung cancer, are increasingly worse. The incidence of prostate and brain cancers and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (which used to be a more common cause of death in farmers), is beginning to rise in the general population, suggesting that exposure to some common environmental factor(s), such as pesticides and herbicides may play a role in cancer etiology." - Joseph Nd Pizzorno, Total Wellness: Improve Your Health by Understanding and Cooperating with Your Body's Natural Healing Systems (Get the book.)

"This goal demands a screening tool that can detect cancers accurately and with such great sensitivity as to distinguish the more evil of the subsets that are still amenable to resection. The extent to which the screening instrument falls short in these characteristics is the extent to which we subject a well woman to anxiety and the iatrogenicity of unnecessary biopsies. The goal to screen this efficiently and effectively may be unattainable. In that event, we must hope for the advances in science that thwart the oncogenic event or redress the consequent pathobiology. Enter the mammogram." - Nortin M. Hadler MD, Worried Sick: A Prescription for Health in an Overtreated America (Get the book.)
