I would be writing a whole new book if I was to go in depth as to the history and science behind the simple natural remedies for cancer outlined here. The focus of my work in writing mum's story is not about these things although they are central as you will see. There is so much information out there. So many good people who have faced this challenge and changed their lives. I offer this post as a launching point for both hope and as a place to begin your own research. Never fear, do not be angry. This challenge you face is an opportunity to access deep love, to connect with others and to transform yourself into a wonderful healing member of society drawing strength and meaning as you go. In soul you are life. In spirit you are strong. Absolute love is our power. I am with you!
By the time mum’s tumor was detected it had well and truly left her lung. In such circumstance medical doctrine generally holds little hope for survival. A round of chemo was undertaken. Chemo is very effective in the first rounds at reducing cancerous tumors and this procedure did buy her some time, albeit a few months. Mum had small cell cancer, a very aggressive and possibly the most difficult form of cancer to beat because it can travel easily around the body via the blood and lymphatic systems. I describe in the book how we dealt with some very seriously blocked lymphatic nodes and how the worst of these was in the neck, mere centimetres away from where the primary tumors developed in her brain.
Initially the prognosis was bad but true to her fighting nature mum was prepared to radically change her habits and lifestyle. In this early phase she was not prepared to reject outright the advice of her doctors but rather to compliment the therapy they recommended with a natural approach. I would not be understating the fact to say this approach had an almost miraculous effect on her pallor and general well being as the horrendous tumor began to literally melt away. Before diagnosis she had looked ill, we had begged her to get a second opinion because clearly something was not right. When she finally did this the cancer was discovered. Via her commitment to dietary changes, to using food and herbs as medicine, to alkalizing her body and taking real steps toward re-tuning her mind she transformed herself from a very sick looking cancer patient to looking better than she had for years. Her skin glowed with a vitality which bellied the fact she was very ill.
In this post I outline the steps she took to achieve these results and compile a list of resources survivors have used to beat their cancer so that it stays beaten and draw parallels to successful remedies others have found for approaching and healing different forms of illness.
In the book I outline in detail the circumstances which led to metastases of the original lung cancer to the brain with mum and how this had a debilitating effect on the positive results up until this time. I talk about the consciousness of cancer as a very real and malevolent living energy and how via a series of devastating personality changes the many little tumors which developed on her brain led to her demise.
I don’t want this outcome to discourage seekers who are willing to fight their disease via the methods outlined here. Mum’s case was dire and the fact it metastasized to her brain opened a whole new series of problems. We undertook a marvelous spiritual transformation with mum. She died in peace, against all the odds, surrounded by love and care at home and in the end, it was the goal of a good and meaningful death which sustained us.
We all die. We all must face our mortality. There is no fear in death, just as death is not an ending but a progression. The fact remains mum’s original tumor was large, aggressive and seemingly by the time it was discovered the battle had been lost. Through her natural approach that tumor melted away so that by the time she came to have radiation on it, there was literally nothing left.
For most people this would translate into the kind of success story we are increasingly hearing about. There will come a time when cancer is not a death sentence, when it can be treated like many other ailments, nipped in the bud early and dealt with for good. Cancer has lifestyle lessons to be sure and these will go a long way toward not only evolving us as individuals but also transforming our society toward a much saner, more stable expression of the higher human virtues seemingly so lacking in today’s world.
Create a mental state of calm. Learn how to observe the tumor in your body: Do not ever panic about cancer or death, in the natural healing process it is vital to tune in to the disease. It will hold lessons about the bigger picture of life. People who own their cancer generally survive the cancer. Mum could feel her original tumor melt away as she launched herself deeper into her natural healing protocols. This encouraged and sustained her and was a complete surprise to me given the resistance she held for any methods outside accepted medical protocols. In the end she balanced the two worlds. Owning your cancer, confronting it on a daily basis is empowering and positive. It means you are taking control and can balance all the therapies on offer from an empowered place. Empowering yourself is the bottom line. Understanding there are so many things you can do is paramount, being a part of the growing army of survivors who have done the same will be a liberating, life changing end goal.
Alkalize the body: Cancer thrives in an acidic environment. Acidity is a factor of our world. From the foods we eat, to the chemicals we ingest by virtue of their prevalence in the environment and in our food. Acidity has been shown to be at the root of many ailments which lead to disease. Cancer also thrives in a low oxygen environment and in fact creates a niche for itself in our bodies so that this is the case. Antioxidants are a remedy for this as they will seek out the low oxygen areas of the body and oxidize them. In this way we can see alkalizing and oxidizing are the essential two pronged approach and there are many methods to get there.
Mum began drinking alkaline water as a first line of defense against acidity. She had been a very traditional meat and three veg person up until this time. She began a process of fasting and adopted a vegan diet. Our bodies do not need a large amount of food to survive. Fasting starves the cancer of processed sugars which is its' primary food and through a vegetarian diet she was not only starving the tumor of sugars but she was also vastly decreasing the energy required for digestion while at the same time fighting acidity.
Herbs and tonics: Chaga Mushrooms became a mainstay in her approach. Much has been written about Chaga and in my opinion it is a very powerful anti-cancer remedy. We were able to source whole chunks of the dried mushroom from the US and mum made her own alcohol tinctures for daily ingestion. This is not a difficult process if you can get pure alcohol or even vodka. A little research into the process will yield an approach which will be right for you. Chaga is a powerful antioxidant.
Dr Sabi is a controversial herbalist who although not a medical doctor nevertheless has a protocol for fighting cancer which has helped many people. Mum was a able to source some of his herbal remedies to drink as teas which went a long way toward introducing immune strengthening compounds and antioxidants. Some research into his legacy would not go astray.
Paw Paw (papaya) leaf tea. Three to five fresh leaves from the Paw Paw plant steeped in hot water then drunk throughout the day. I came to see this as the Chaga of the pacific as it is a well known aid in fighting cancer for those in this region. I came to consider the idea that nature provides essential compounds for fighting disease in plants native to various regions. This tea and tincture has helped many people in our region who turned to it after they could not be helped by chemo any more.
Dandelion root, Ginger root sourced fresh and either made into a tincture or steeped in water and drunk as a tea. Again a little research will yield much information about what compounds could be of benefit here, suffice it to say the fresher the better. Ginger is known as a bitter antioxidant as is Dandelion and both are rich in essential minerals. Being roots they are storehouses for minerals required to produce the plant above ground. In this way many immune boosting compounds are concentrated in them and both have been used for a millennia by humans as a tea, consequently there is much information available.
Lemon steeped in hot water and drunk first thing in morning. After sleep the body is ready to purge toxins gathered throughout the night. It is open and sensitive at this time to both antioxidant and alkalizing inputs. Lemon is a great tonic for producing an alkaline state, rich in vitamins, particularly C it hits the body like a hammer in the early morning as our bodies are open to receive the first nutrients. Take this for three or four weeks. Lemon in hot water can strip the enamel off our teeth so care should be taken to observe this effect but it will go straight to the tumor, if the tumor is sufficiently starved of sugars, where it will have the desired effect. Do this for three weeks observing how your cancer feels in this time. Give your teeth a break then keep going.
Vitamin C: Perhaps the king of antioxidants and essential for healing scarred and damaged tissues and cells many people have had success using high dose vit C therapy alone. Vitamin C should not be underestimated for its' positive effect on so many confounding maladies of the human condition.
Adopt a vegetarian diet throughout the process of healing: In the book I discuss why many of the foods we eat do not come pre-packed with the punch required to keep us truly healthy. It all goes back to the life of the plant and the farming cycle, the health of the soils and the chemical processes required to grow crops in barren or dead soils year after year. By adopting a vegetarian diet and fasting through the day you are starving the cancer of the food it has become accustomed to, but it is not enough to do this alone if the basic foods themselves are going to continue to expose you to toxins and if they lack the essential nutrients to make the difference. Hospital food is a prime example. Cooked to mush and irradiated you might as well just eat gruel for all the good that will do! Plants need certain stresses to ensure the uptake of healthy nutrients, we could say true healing through food starts in the soil. Kale is a big one for cancer, certain nuts and fruits also. Seed bearing fruits and root vegetables will sustain you in balance. While the seeds in fruits bring b17 the sugars can be a problem if not moderated. There is a wealth of information, recipes and guidelines for you to research once you are prepared to take this approach and zero effect on conventional therapies like chemo if you do. You can do both!
B17 apricot seeds: B17 is a contentious subject in the world of cancer. I will link to a video below so you may begin to understand the story. It is found in seeds with the greatest concentration being in the apricot seed. Apricot seed oil is widely available and I have read stories of people having success simply crushing up the raw seeds and ingesting.
Bi-carb: This is another contentious cancer remedy but one which has a massive following around the world. Mum didn't like to drink it so she brushed her teeth with it twice a day. I will provide links below so you may review the state of things. Having said this Bi-carb soda conforms to the general theme of alkalizing the body and offers salts which have the effect of drying out and reducing the tumor. Could cancer be a form of fungal parasite able to change cells in a low oxygen acidic environment where it can feed on sugars?
In the following list I simply offer statements people have made regarding their personal journey, linking to useful books and videos they have suggested. It is not intended to do anything more than provide a point of research as you begin to take control of your cancer. Nothing here will inhibit medical therapies or procedures. By this time I am hoping you can see a general theme emerging. Oxidize, alkalize, remove cancers food! Attack the cancer with oxygen which is light in the darkened room of oxygen starved areas of our body, drive out its' prerequisites to exist by eliminating acidity and starving it of sugars. By the time your tumor has grown large enough to make you sick your immune system will have been fighting it possibly for years. All of these therapies are immune strengthening, supporting the bodies own natural T-cell defense mechanism to produce the required enzymes which kill cancer. In my book I also outline the frequency therapy we undertook in the final stages of mum's diseases. It was amazing even when we knew there was no coming back. I will include a link below to an introduction on how and why this works. I wish we had started this therapy months before we did as I feel had we done so mum would still be with us.
