Guest guest Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 I have had cancer (ovary)--I used Essiac and Pa De Arco teas. No refined sugars, flour, MSG's, soda pop, cigs--total deter and flush system out with REAL spring water--not tap water--unless you are on your own well. You can mix the two teas together if you wish. Combined 1 cup of tea aleast one hour before breakfast--same goes for lunch and another cup 2 hours after dinner-before you go to bed. Essiac tea--do not use the tea bags-- to do it right -- use the method Renee Cassie used. It takes about 12-13 hours to make but it works. Camas Prairie Tea by Trout Lake Farms is mostly what I use. It is certified organic and it follows Renee's recipe to a te--. Red Clover can be added also Use only the highest quality of PaDeArco tea available. By the way--my last visit to the doctor--4/17--they can not find anymore tumors! Lynda timbercreek - JazziDJess Tuesday, May 08, 2007 2:03 AM Colon Cancer My partner diagnosed.

Guest guest Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 Vitamin B17 - it's banned by the FDA but you can find it in apricot kernels and other fruit seeds. Eat the seeds in fruit (apples, grapes, watermelon, plum-need to crack those open and eat soft center, blueberries, raspberries, etc.) and make sure to chew them up well. B17 is also available from wheat grass supplements. , JazziDJess wrote: > > My partner diagnosed.

Guest guest Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 It is also in flax seed.... don't buy the flax oil or flax meal.... my understanding is that it goes rancid very quickly after it is ground..........buy the fresh whole seeds and grind them in a coffee grinder just prior to using. - november.gale Tuesday, May 08, 2007 10:06 AM Re: Colon Cancer Vitamin B17 - it's banned by the FDA but you can find it in apricot kernels and other fruit seeds.

Guest guest Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 A book on health written 100 years ago, called Hatha Yoga, can be read at http://dgwa1.fortunecity.com/body/hathayoga.html It is even more applicable today than it was then. It also contains a link to another book called psychic healing. I reckon that by applying what's in those two books, we can let the FDA and similar corrupt bodies do just what they like!!We should be able to heal ourselves and others from just about anything.

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2009 Report Share Posted February 5, 2009 In colon cancer drug study, more wasn't better By STEPHANIE NANO, Associated Press Writer Stephanie Nano, Associated Press Writer – 20 mins ago Play Video Cancer Video: Dodgers Go To Bat For Cancer Patients CBS 2 / KCAL 9 Los Angeles Play Video Cancer Video: Doctors Remove Tumor From Haitian Boy's Arm WJZ 13 Baltimore NEW YORK – Doctors thought that combining two newer drugs that more precisely attack cancer would help people with advanced colon cancer. Instead, it made the cancer worse and made the patients more miserable, a study found. The surprising findings underscore the importance of doing rigorous studies before rushing to mix these pricey, new-generation drugs, the Dutch researchers and other experts said. The doctors tried combining Erbitux and Avastin because lab tests and an earlier small study had shown promising results. " This will stand out as a warning, " said Dr. Cornelis Punt, the study's leader. " You have to do the randomized studies to see what really happens. " For the study, Eli Lilly & Co.'s Erbitux was added to standard treatment, which includes Genentech Inc.'s Avastin. Since both are " targeted " drugs and attack tumors in different ways, the thinking was that the combo would do a better job of keeping the cancer from growing. But the results show " more is not always better, " said Dr. Robert Mayer, of Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in Boston. He wrote an editorial published with the study in Thursday's New England Journal of Medicine. What makes the results even more compelling, Mayer said, is that another similar study reached the same conclusion. That study, released in December, tested another targeted drug that works the same way as Erbitux. " This is the first time we've seen harm by combining targeted therapies and it tells us we need to be cautious, " said Dr. Jordan Berlin, a gastrointestinal cancer specialist at Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center in Nashville, Tenn. Berlin, who had no role in the research, stressed that the drugs do help patients, just not when given together. Colorectal cancer is the nation's second leading cancer killer. The disease was expected to kill almost 50,000 Americans last year although death rates are dropping because of screening and better treatment. The research was done at hospitals throughout the Netherlands and led by Punt at Radboud University Nijmegen Medical Center. The 755 study patients had colon cancer that had spread. They all received Avastin, also known as bevacizumab, and two chemotherapy drugs. Half of them also got Erbitux, also called cetuximab. They were followed for nearly two years. The group that got Erbitux saw their cancer get worse sooner, the researchers found. On average, their cancer progressed after 9.4 months compared to 10.7 months for those who didn't get Erbitux. The Erbitux group also had lower quality-of-life scores. The overall survival in both groups was about the same. Punt said they are now trying to figure out why the combo didn't work; it could be an interaction between these two specific drugs, Erbitux and Avastin. After the study began in 2006, it was shown that Erbitux didn't help colon cancer patients who had a specific gene mutation. The Dutch researchers said their study confirmed that — the worst results were in those with the mutation who got Erbitux. Vanderbilt's Berlin said the results also show doctors need to be careful when using drugs " off-label. " Drugs are approved for specific uses but doctors can prescribe them for other purposes. Medicare has recently expanded its coverage for such use of some cancer drugs, which can cost thousands a month. Off-label use " needs to be cautious and this proves it, " said Berlin. The study was supported by a network of Dutch researchers which receives grants from a cancer foundation and drug companies. The two targeted drugs were provided by the companies that market them in Europe. Several of the researchers have consulted for cancer drug companies, as has the editorial writer and Berlin.

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2009 Report Share Posted February 5, 2009 Chemo drugs are poisons, that is how they work. You never know what you are going to get when you combine two poisons, but the end result may well be be much more dangerous than the sum or it's parts. I am reminded of the rodent study where they took the amount of aluminum that would normally result in the death of one out of 100 mice and combined it with the amount of mercury that would kill one out of 100 mice and found that the combination of the two killed 100 out of 100 mice. Here is the scary part. Virtually ALL mainstream approved drugs are tested for safety soley by themselves. That means that if you combine any two, three or more prescribed or over the counter drugs you are taking something that has never been tested for safety. In effect you are a guinea pig who is gambling with your life. The same could be said about supplements I suppose - except that most supplements are made of things found in nature and compatible with the human body. No doubt that is why, despite the lack of FDA trials and such, in any given year no more than a small handful of deaths around the world are attributed to supplements, whereas in the US alone over 106,000 deaths are attributed to reactions to properly prescribed and administered FDA approved medications. "Modern medicine" may well be defined as "the experimental study of what happens when poisonous chemicals are placed into malnourished human bodies."- A.
