Finding An Alternative Treatment For Prostate Cancer

You don't have to look too long before finding an alternative treatment for prostate cancer. Before I discuss my treatment, I feel that I should talk about just what the prostate is and what it does.

The prostate is only in men because it is a sex organ. It produces a man's seminal fluid. The location of the prostate is unfortunate because it's just below the bladder and surrounds the urethra. The trouble with this location is that if there are any medical problems with the prostate, they can translate into urination problems for the man.

The alternative treatment for prostate cancer that I'm going to talk about has it origins clear back in 1924 when Nobel Prize winner Dr. Otto Warburg in Germany first wrote that cancer cells were anaerobic. In other words, they only existed in the absence of free oxygen. He said that this was the cause of cancer. He proved it by giving cancer to a group of animals over a period of 48hrs by injecting them with acidic fluids, therefore, expelling any oxygen from their bodies. For some reason, his findings have largely been ignored by the cancer research community.

Prostate cancer is one of the most common cancers affecting men in the US. Fortunately, prostate cancer is often caught early by ordinary blood tests and by digital rectal exams during routine physicals. Another feature of prostate cancer is that it usually progresses slowly. This allows the patient plenty of time to plan out his treatment and also means that malignant tumors don't have time to spread. This gives the patient time to consider an alternative treatment for prostate cancer. Traditional Western medicine treatments usually include radiation, chemotherapy, hormone therapy and/or surgery. All of these treatments are meant to kill the cancer cells, but, unfortunately, healthy cells are also killed. It also has been proven that surgery doesn't have any affect on the five year survival rate.

The alternative treatment for prostate cancer that's based on Dr. Warburg's findings involves that ingesting of calcium and alkaline foods to raise the ph of the bodily fluids so that oxygen is present in all of the cells. All calcium is good for raising the ph of the body, but coral calcium is the best because it is already 100% ionized, so it's much more usable by the body. If you have prostate cancer, you should take six coral calcium capsules per day. To facilitate the absorption of the calcium, you should also take 5,000 I.U.'s per day of vitamin D. Have you ever noticed that milk has vitamin D added? This is why.

The use of calcium to treat cancer might sound ridiculous, but the idea is gaining traction all the time. In the October 13^th, 1998 issue of the New York Times there was an article entitled, "Calcium Takes It's Place As a Superstar Of Nutrients". This article talked about a study that was reviewed by the Journal of the American Medical Association. The journal reported that "increasing the calcium induced normal development of the epithelial cells and might also prevent cancer in such organs as the breast, prostate and pancreas".

If you do get rid of the cancer using the alkaline method, it will come back if you don't stop doing whatever caused the cancer to appear in the first place. As part of an alternative treatment for prostate cancer, you should closely examine your diet to see if you can eliminate foods that are very acidic. A case in point is soda pop. It is not only very acidic, but also is high in phosphates which leach calcium out of the body, usually lowering the ph. Even tap water is usually acidic because of all the additives that are in it to "purify" it.

Most foods are acidic. This is nature's way of helping us with digestion. The secret is to consume the foods that are less acidic than others and to consume the foods that are acidic when they start out, but then are alkalizing after digestion (like lemons). To find out which foods have which properties, get a hold of a good food chart. They can be found online. Get several charts because I've noticed that some charts don't agree.

Tell Me More About An Alternative Treatment For Pancreatic Cancer

Because of its location; just behind the stomach, the pancreas is impossible to observe and hard to treat if anything goes wrong. Being hard to treat only extends to conventional treatments. There is an alternative treatment for pancreatic cancer that works in such a way that it doesn't matter where in the body the pancreas is. Another problem with using conventional treatments on pancreatic cancer is that pancreatic cancer is usually very aggressive and fast moving, so it has usually spread to other parts of the body by the time it is detected.

Before we go any further, we first need to look at what the pancreas does. To understand pancreatic cancer, we have to understand what the pancreas does. Cooked food has no enzymes because they have been killed by the cooking process. The pancreas helps out by secreting an enzyme called trypsin to digest cooked food. Trypsin also eats holes in the walls of cancer tumors so that white blood cells can enter the cancer tumor and destroy it, (by the way, we all have cancer cells); so if we're eating a lot of cooked foods, we have little or no enzyme protection against cancer tumors because we're using all of our trypsin to digest our food. If our immune system is also in bad shape, then we have no more defenses left!

You have probably heard of the other function of the pancreas, especially if you are diabetic or know someone who is diabetic. That function is to produce the insulin so we can break down the glucose in our bodies. If the pancreas doesn't produce enough insulin, then it is necessary to take supplements.

So what is an alternative treatment for pancreatic cancer? Believe it or not, it all started hundreds of years ago back in the time of Hippocrates, the father of modern medicine. Hippocrates said that his cure for cancer was garlic and onions. At first look, this might seem ridiculous, but we have to dig deeper into why this would be true.

Another important insight came in 1924 when Nobel Prize winner Dr. Otto Warburg wrote in a paper that cancer cannot survive in the presence of oxygen. He believed that his findings would revolutionize cancer research, but he was wrong. His findings did not become part of conventional medicine or research, but instead his findings became an alternative treatment for pancreatic cancer or just about any other kind of cancer you can think of.

Back to Hippocrates, it just so happens that garlic and onions both belong to a small group of foods that are naturally alkaline (have oxygen present), so Hippocrates may not have known why it worked, but he was right when interpreting his results.

All cancers have in common an acidic body. Terminal cancer patients usually have a ph of 4.5. This is extremely acidic. This acidity is important because an acidic liquid tends to expel oxygen. An alkaline fluid tends to hold on to oxygen. In the alternative treatment for pancreatic cancer that I'm going to talk about involves having the cancer patient make his bodily fluids alkaline instead of acidic. This can be done by eating foods that are either outright alkaline or foods that become alkaline after being processed by the body such as lemons. Unfortunately, most of our foods are acidic. For this reason, it may be necessary to also ingest an alkaline supplement such as calcium.

Calcium is definitely alkaline and has many other benefits to the body. One of its benefits is that calcium acts as a buffer. It's called this because just a little bit of calcium can neutralize a lot of acid. Calcium is also necessary for proper cell division. Over 100 years ago, it was found that calcium is necessary for proper heartbeat. The list of calcium's benefits goes on and on.

All calcium is good, but coral calcium is the best. Its calcium is ionized so its absorption rate by the body is 100%. If marine grade coral calcium is used; it's even better because it also has up to 80 types of microbes that will help with digestion in the small intestine. This is important because it takes some of the workload off the pancreas.

To facilitate the absorption of calcium it's necessary to also take Vitamin D. In their book, "The Calcium Factor" Dr. Carl Reich and Robert Barefoot recommend at least 5,000 I.U.s per day of Vitamin D along with six capsules of coral calcium to treat pancreatic or any other kind of cancer.

Another way to raise alkaline levels in the body is by using cesium chloride. It has a very high ph (14) and its molecules are very large, therefore its molecules get trapped inside the cells making them alkaline. This creates an environment where the cancer can't survive. Since cesium is so alkaline, it is very caustic. It is so caustic that it should only be used under a doctor's supervision.

Western medicine knows that cancer patients have acidic bodies, but it tends to ignore this fact. Western medicine is focused more on finding patentable treatments like chemotherapy so that money can be made. Western medicine also doesn't focus on the causes, only treatments. With the alternative treatment for pancreatic cancer that I'm talking about, the cause, an acid body is addressed. Yes, a lot of people are cancer free after undergoing a conventional cancer treatment. What doesn't get a lot of publicity is that a many of those people have cancer again after less than five years because they didn't address the cause of the cancer

Chemotherapy and radiation therapy only deal with the cancer itself. Even if you successfully use these treatments on your pancreatic cancer, you are likely to have a relapse in less than five years because you haven't treated the cause. If you ask people that have survived more than five years after having pancreatic cancer, you may find that they have "cleaned up" their life and they've changed their diet so that ends up being more alkaline.

The Best Alternative Treatment For Cancer

Why do I think that this is the best alternative treatment for cancer? Easy, because it is full of common sense. So what is it? It involves making the bodily fluids alkaline as opposed to acidic. Huh? You see, people that have cancer usually have acidic fluids in their bodies. The idea of this treatment is simple; make those same fluids alkaline instead. This is an idea that you'll never hear from big pharma because there are no drugs involved to get a patent on. Worse then that, big pharma knows that there are many alternative ways to treat cancer, but they would prefer to keep making billions of dollars off the chemotherapy drugs that they sell.

A couple of years ago, a friend of mine underwent chemo for throat cancer. He told me that they give you chemo until you're right on the verge of death, then they stop. When I talked to him he was still pretty weak and couldn't even walk very far. It was obvious that he was having some pretty serious side effects.

I have found that the best alternative treatments are the ones that make a lot of common sense. In the alternative treatment for cancer that I have mentioned, oxygen is used to kill and prevent the further growth of cancer cells. This not a new idea. As early as 1924, a Dr. Otto Warburg wrote that cancer cells were anaerobic. In other words, they can't live in the presence of oxygen. Dr. Warburg thought that future cancer research and treatment would utilize this finding, however he was to be disappointed. His findings were quickly forgotten while cancer research went off in other directions.

An alternative treatment for cancer that would involve Dr. Warburg's research would involve raising the ph of your bodily fluids to an alkaline level. Why do this? A ph of seven is considered to be neutral, anything above this is considered to be alkaline and a ph below seven is considered to be acid. An alkaline fluid has oxygen in it, while an acidic fluid tends not to have any oxygen, so cancer couldn't live in an alkaline body which would have oxygen in all its fluids, while it can thrive in an acid body which wouldn't have any oxygen in its fluids.

When you were born, your bodily fluids had an alkaline ph of 7.4. The only acids in your body were the stomach fluids and the urine. As you age however, you're body may have become acidic because of the foods you've eaten and/or the stress you've been under. Unfortunately, most food has an acid ph. This is an attempt by nature to help our stomachs break down and digest our food. Even tap water usually has an acid ph because of all the additives it has such as chlorine. If you are truly interested in an alternative treatment for cancer, you can control your ph happens because some foods, particularly, some green vegetables are actually alkaline and some foods that start out acidic become alkaline after being broken down. A case in point is lemons. Lemons are very acidic because they have citric acid in them. Yet, after being broken down in the stomach, they become very alkaline.

All attempts at alkalizing the body can be for naught, however, if stress is present. Stress can turn a body from an alkaline state to an acidic state in just a few minutes. This is because the adrenal glands pump out cortisone when the body is under stress. Cortisone is acidic and spreads all over the body causing the whole body to become acidic. You can see the link between stress and health by looking at Air Traffic Controllers. Everyone knows it's a stressful job and everyone knows they have a lot of health problems. So if you have cancer and stress, you first need to eliminate stress or you'll never eliminate the cancer.

There are food charts available; however, I've noticed that some charts don't agree with others, so you should look at several charts when deciding which foods to use when alkalizing your body. Even if you have a good food chart, it may be hard to always eat alkaline or alkalizing foods. This is where supplements come in. One of the best supplements is calcium. All calcium is good; however coral calcium is better and marine grade coral calcium is the best coral variety. It features 100% absorption plus it has almost eighty varieties of microbes that help the body with digestion. Coral calcium can be purchased over the counter anywhere that vitamins are sold. I buy mine at a grocery store.

In addition to raising your body's ph with coral calcium, if you have cancer you should also use cesium chloride. Cesium chloride has a ph of 14 and its molecules are so big that it can enter a cancer cell through the food inlet channel, but it can't get out through the smaller exit channel. Therefore the cancer cell becomes alkaline and the cancer can no longer survive.
