Introduction

This page is meant to be an aid in researching alternative means of treating and preventing cancer, for whomever may be interested.

I am not a doctor or any kind of a healthcare practicioner. I like to find and share information. I started to research this subject in January of 2022, when I had a brief cancer scare. Luckily I have not had cancer. I know that it can be very scary. I have always been interested in alternative approaches to health. Cancer is not the funnest subject, so I had not previously spent any time looking into it. I have found this to be an extremely interesting subject.

There are over 200 kinds of cancer. Cancer is the number two cause of death in the US, heart disease is number one. Cancer is expected to soon be number one, as it already is in 22 states.

I am not making any claims and I am not giving medical advice. And I am not suggesting that anyone should not see a doctor or follow their advice. But I do suggest that you should become as informed as you can and make your own decisions, with as much help as you want from wherever you can get it. Many people may want to pursue alternative treatment exclusively, or at least give it a try, and many people may wish to use alternative treatment along with conventional treatment. This could be called complementary or integrative therapy. Some doctors may be open to this, some may not be. In most cases, especially in a new diagnosis of early stage cancer, there is time to research options before jumping right into conventional treatment. And in some cases of late-stage cancer, doctors may say that they have nothing more to offer. I highly recommend watching the PBS documentary film, Cancer, The Emperor of All Maladies. This 6-hour film presents the medical history of cancer treatment. Conventional treatment generally consists of surgery, chemotherapy and radiation, also known as "cut, poison and burn". Many lives have been saved or lengthened with such treatment. And there are continuing advances in conventional treatment, including immunotherapy. There can also be downsides to such treatments. There are many alternatives to conventional treatment. Every person is different, every body is different, every cancer is different. Alternative treatment is largely dismissed by mainstream science and medicine. But I would suggest that there is nothing unscientific about most alternative therapies. The world of alternative healing is quite vast. There are certainly many wrong ideas, charlatans, con men, etc. Which is one reason why I suggest reading as much as you can, to sort out what has merit.

Many books are listed here. It may not be necessary to buy or read any of these books, but I do recommend get and read as many of them as you can. You may be able to find them cheap or borrow them from libraries. (also check out http://www.pdfdrive.com, where many books in PDF form can be downloaded at no charge). Or you may find sufficient information on the web. But I definitely recommend keep on learning. The more you look, the more you will find. I do not have all of these books, but I have obtained quite a few of them. I have been continually amazed at how much information there is. One reason I list so many books here is to give support to the idea that there are many valid alternative ways to look at cancer treatment. Another reason is to show that we are way beyond just a handful of anecdoctal cases. Note that most of these books are written either by doctors and scientists, or by cancer survivors. (I earn no commission from Amazon. I may change my mind on that someday. More information here).

I have tried to list here as many good books as I can find and as many different therapies as I could find. I would suggest that rather than trying to figure out which is the one best thing to do, it might be better to follow the "cocktail" approach and use as many different therapies as you can.

Most of the best ideas in alternative cancer treatment will apply perhaps even more to prevention, and much of it is good advice for just good general health. Cancer is increasingly understood to be a metabolic disease (rather than a genetic condition), and thus has a lot to do with what we are eating or not eating. Most of us have eaten a fairly unhealthy diet for most of our lives and have been exposed to many toxins. So a lot of alternative approaches to cancer involve changes in diet, and/or detoxification. When we are looking at various dietary approaches, we may find some similarities (as well as contradictions). Many people may claim to have cured their cancer by following a Macrobiotic diet. It may be that it was not so much all the specifics of that approach as it was just that someone stopped eating meat or dairy. A positive attitude may be very important. It may be that many people who reversed their cancer by following this or that therapy actually improved just because they had a very strong positive attitude (the placebo effect). We may be a long ways off from having a complete understanding of cancer. But I do suggest that there are a great many success stories from people who have followed alternative paths, whether or not they also followed the conventional approach.

Anyway, this is just some information I have found on the subject of cancer, including a lot of books, in case it may be of use to anyone. This is not meant to be a guide to cancer, but a guide to researching alternative cancer treatment. And I note again that quite a bit of this is relevant to good health in general. I am not necessarily recommending anything in particular just because I document it here. I like to keep an open mind and I try to learn from everyone. I'm still working on this, and it might always be a bit rough and unfinished.

I wish you good luck and good health.

Excellent book. One of the top books I would recommend on alternative cancer treatment (or just for anyone who wants to be super healthy). Chris declined chemo after having surgery for colon cancer at age 26. His approach is a plant-based diet, ideally raw, and lots of juicing. He ate 2 "Giant Cancer-Fighting Salads" every day. Exceptionally well-written book. Very well-organized. Thorough but also concise. Contains many details on various fruits, vegetables, mushrooms, herbs, etc. Heavily annotated with scientific studies.

Youtube video - Chris Wark Interviews Dale Figtree 05/22/22 (1hr7min) - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_nCgZfa3JE
The author was diagnosed with non-Hodgkins lymphoma with an inoperable tumor in 1977 at age 27. After six months of radiation treatment, she was told there was nothing more they could do. She found a naturopathic doctor who guided her into healing, mainly with a radical nutrient-dense healthy diet. As of 2022, she has been cancer-free for 45 years. I got this book right after watching her interviews with Chris Wark (linked above). A short book, very easy to read. Lots of information. Very inspirational. Highly recommended.

This excellent book gives a thorough look at alternative cancer treatments and cancer in general. Note that it is over 30 years old, so there may be quite a bit of outdated information, which you might need to verify or research further. But still a very valuable book.

Podcast - Peter Attia MD talks with Thomas Seyfried Phd - NOV 26, 2018 (2hrs48min audio) - http://peterattiamd.com/tomseyfried/
Dr. Seyfried's page at Boston College: http://www.bc.edu/bc-web/schools/mcas/departments/biology/people/faculty-directory/thomas-seyfried.html
Description of the book from above page: "Dr. Seyfried's groundbreaking treatise provides extensive information showing that cancer can be best defined as a mitochondrial metabolic disease rather than as a genetic disease. This new concept has implications for the development of new non-toxic cancer therapies incuding the ketogenic diet. Experts in the cancer research field have praised this comprehensive study as one of science's hottest topics." This is a very important book in the ongoing scientific study of cancer, but probably not one most people need to get or read. See the summary book below.

Diet, Nutrition, Superfoods, Herbs, Vitamins, Supplements, etc

Diet is certainly an important factor in preventing and treating cancer.

Just what that diet should be might be complicated and will certainly vary from person to person and fron time to time. We might say that humans are omnivores and can eat anything. But obviously there are healthy and unhealthy things to eat. Determining what is good for you may not be simple, but it is certainly worth examining your diet and making improvements. Many people claim to have cured cancer just by making some changes in their diet. Some people become vegetarian, some follow particular diets, some eat what they want but add some supplements. You can get pretty radical, like just eating salads every day and drinking fresh-squeezed juices. I would not be afraid of getting pretty extreme for a while as a cancer-fighting protocol, but in general I don't think people have to get too radical. Most people are ingesting quite a bit of obviously bad substances that can be cut out. And most of us can learn a lot about healthy things we can add to our diets. I am no expert on this and do not claim to have the answers, but I will present a lot of ideas here, which can be researched or tried. And this whole page may be in kind of a rough format, you might think of it as clues. You can get all the help you want, but you will mainly need to make your own way.

Concept of macronutrients and micronutrients:
Macronutrients = Carbohydrates, Fats, Protein
Micronutrients = Vitamins and Minerals
Most people get plenty of macronutrients but are very much deficient in
micronutrients and need to eat more "nutrient-dense" foods

Many sources recommend to reduce or cut out sugar, reduce carbohydrates, reduce or cut out meat, reduce or cut out dairy foods, reduce or cut out alcohol, cut out processed foods, fried foods.

A plant based diet may be very healthy. Consult Dr Gregor's book, How Not to Die. But you will also find a lot of references to the Ketogenic diet, which is high fat, low carb, and may include a lot of animal foods.

Keep in mind that if you are fighting cancer, and you want to use a radical dietary approach, it does not have to be forever. You certainly should improve your diet for the rest of your life, but who can say what that diet should be. Many people are very healthy eating animal foods.

Whatever kind of diet you are following, it is probably good to eat more vegetables, fruits, and whole grains. Some some diets do not include grains, as they are carbohydrates. But if you do eat grains, it would be better if they were whole grains - white rice has had all of the nutrition and fiber removed. Same with white flour. If you are not used to eating vegetables, try out brocolli, cauliflower, kale, cabbage, greens, carrots, beets, cucmbers, squash, potatoes, onions, celery. Rather than following elaborate detailed recipes, you can eat vegetables raw in salads (chop or grate), cook easily by steaming, or lightly saute. Cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli, cauliflower, kale, and cabbage are especially anti-cancer and good for the digestive tract. Iindole-3-carbinol (indolymethanol) is the "active ingredient" in cruciferous vegetables and may have the effect of stopping replication of cancer cells. When indole-3-carbinol is digested in the human body, diindolylmethane (DIM) is produced. You can buy this as a supplement.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3,3'-Diindolylmethane
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/indole-3-carbinol

Many people are not in the habit of eating fruits, such as bananas, apples, pears, peaches, avocados, oranges, lemons, limes, pineapples, kiwis, strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, cherries, blackberries, (berries are especially anti-cancer). Fruits can be a good snack or desert or can be juiced or added to salads (chop or grate).

Seeds and nuts such as sunflower seeds, flax seeds, pumpkin seeds, pecans, walnuts, brazil nuts, cashews, can be ground in a nut grinder or a coffee grinder and added to smoothies, or eaten as snacks or cooked in food.

Grains and beans are easy to cook. Check out a used copy of the old classic book Tarrajara Cooking. If you eat bread, preferably it would be whole-grain bread. Brown rice, oatmeal, and quinoa are easy to cook. Lentils, aduki and mung beans cook in about the same time as rice, and can be cooked together. Other beans may need more time and should be soaked for a while first, preferably overnight.

Smoothies -

Many different foods can be blended to make smoothies.
You can get a blender for $20.

I have been making a smoothie in the morning, about 32oz (give or take 12oz), and drinking that instead of breakfast and lunch. Here is how I am making it -

Grind in Coffee Grinder - 2tbsp freshly flax seed, 2tbsp sunflower seed, small amount of almonds, cashews, brazil nuts, maybe fennel seed, or fenugreek, or licorice. ground seeds/nuts/spices from above,
frozen berry mix
1/2 whole lemon (with peel and seeds)
1 banana and/or 1 mango and/or apple, and/or pineapple and/or orange (any fruit, fresh or frozen)
1tsp flax oil, 1tsp coconut oil
1tsp moringa powder, 1tsp ashwaganda powder, 1tsp bee pollen, 1 tsp brewers yeast, 1 tsp amla, 1-3 tsp green powder (spirulina, cholorella, wheatgrass, barley grass, etc),
1tsp peanut butter
1tsp honey
cinnamon
8-16z water

I might leave any of these out or add other things or vary amounts. I might substitute juice or tea or coffee for water.Some people might use milk, or a plant milk such as almond milk or soy milk. Some people might also add some yogurt or a raw egg, like if you are doing this for bodybuilding. But for anti-cancer (or even bodybuilding), there is plenty of protein here without animal foods. You can also add any kind of protein powder, plant-based or not.
You can also blend greens such as kale or various vegetables. I have not experimented much with this yet. Some people use powerful blenders such as the Vitamix to be able to blend all kinds of vegetables, etc. (I would tend to think of juicing rather than blending vegetables). And actually, it may turn out to be advisable to follow a diet that greatly reduces fruit. So, the concept of a smoothie can be a way to get a lot of micronutrients, but can be modified for any particular dietary approach.



Fresh Juices

You can consume huge quantities of vegetables and/or fruits by juicing them. Juicing may also make the nutrients more available. There are many juicers on the market ranging from under $100 to over $1000. There are many books about juicing, some from over 50 years ago.

My favorite juicer and the one I still use (when I use it) is the Acme Juicerator. These have been made for over 70 years. Many years ago the Waring Blender company bought the Acme Juicer company. They kept the name for a while and the design stayed the same. Waring now puts their name on several models including the Waring Commercial Heavy Duty Juice Extractor Model 6001C, which is about $500.00 (and is probably comparable to the original Acme, but I have not seen one). The original Acme was around $200 in the 1970's and 80's. You can find Acme Juicerators on eBay for good prices, ranging from $30 to $100. Sometimes the description will say something like "found in Grandma's attic, barely used". These are very tough machines - when I worked in a health food restaurant in the 80's, we had an old Acme in continuous use for years and I saw it dropped on the floor many times. Replacement parts are still available. The model 6001 is mainly stainless steel. The model 5001 has much more plastic parts. (you want the 6001). I am going on about this because I want to make sure you know that you can get a super high quality juicer very affordably. (eBay!) There are many newer juicers around, which can also be found used. Some people do not favor the Acme because it is a centrifugal juicer, which spins at a very high speed and may oxidize the juice a bit. In the past, those who had great concern about this might use a Norwalk or a K&K juicer, which were 2-part machines, one to chop up the vegetables and one to press out the juice. These were over $1000. I do not think this is that great of a concern, but there are newer, affordable juicers, such as the Omega, which are low-speed. I found the Omega to be a lot of trouble to take apart and clean. I can take apart an Acme, clean it, and put it back together in a minute or two. The Champion is another high-quality machine which is no longer made. An advantage of the Champion is that you can make a lot of juice before having to take it apart and clean it, while the Acme has to be taken apart and emptied after each juice. Different juicers behave differently with different vegetables and fruits. For example you might need a citrus juicer for oranges and a special juicer for wheatgrass, or a filter to juice apples by themselves in an Acme. (there is also a citrus attachment to convert the Acme to a citrus juicer).

Anyway, you will find many alternative cancer books talking about juicing and you might want to look into it. You can buy fresh-squeezed juices in healthfood restaurants, but it is way cheaper to do your own juicing. There are many people who claim to have healed advanced cancer with carrot juice alone.

I used to work in a health food restaurant and I drank a lot of carrot juice. My hands even started to turn a bit orange. I have been lazy about juicing for many years and ocassionally I start back into it. Probably not necessary for most people, but can be a very powerful medicine, or healing food. There could be an issue with sugar intake from some vegetables. And it could also be advisable to dilute juices with water.

I recommend try carrot with some beet, celery, apple and a little ginger. And maybe add some garlic if that doesn't ruin it for you.

This is a classic book -

Fresh Vegetable and Fruit Juices - Norman Walker - 1978 - 120 pages

See also Chris Beat Cancer (in book list above) and Curing Cancer with Carrots (in book list above).

Ralph Cole: http://cancerisover.blogspot.com
Ralph Cole cured his cancer by drinking carrot juice and was the inspiration for Ann Cameron who also cured her cancer by drinking carrot juice and wrote the book Curing Cancer with Carrots. He says that cancer can be reversed by drinking 6-8 cups per day of fresh carrot juice for several months. He links to scientific studies showing that the active ingredients in carrot juice seem to be falcarinol and falcarindiol.

Lothar Hirneise - http://www.hirneiese.com

A central part of the Budwig protocol is "Budwig Muesli", which is made from cottage cheese and flax oil>br> Quark is preferred, which is a curdless type of cottage cheese. But quark is not widely available and regular low fat or fat-free cottage cheese is suitable.
Blend 6 tbsp low fat cottage cheese with 3 tbsp flax oil, then add 2 tbsp freshly ground flax seeds and blend.
This is also called FO/CC (flax oil, cottage cheese).
Part of the theory here is that the sulphur-rich milk proteins in the cottage cheese make the omega-3 in the flax oil more soluble.
This "Budwig Cream" can be served with ground flax seed, and fresh chopped fruit. Sometimes honey is added.
There are many other elements to the Budwig Diet.
Dr. Budwig's research was inspired by Otto Warburg (see book Ravenous in list above) and was a pioneer in understanding cancer to be a metabolic disease.

Gerson Therapy

The Wikipedia article on Max Gerson is not flattering. Of course Wikipedia is part of the mainstream establishment that can not accept any alternatives, but there may be some valid criticisms here.
Wikipedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Max_Gerson
As with any particular therapy, it may be that the Gerson Therapy can be very effective for some people due to certain parts of the therapy, even though other parts may not be effective. And it may work for reasons other than claimed. For instance it may be very good to drink a lot of fresh juices, but the benefit might be in some component of the juice rather than in a detoxifiyng effect. Or perhaps Dr. Gerson was correct in every part of his therapy. Coffee enemas are a central part of the therapy. The coffee enemas are considered to have a powerful detoxifying effect. Also keep in mind that Dr. Gerson died in 1958 and he would certainly have continued to research and learn and develop his ideas.

Vegetarian, Vegan, Raw Foods Vegan

Some people eat fish in an otherwise vegetarian diet, which is sometimes called pescatarian. Some people eat eggs and dairy in an otherwise vegetarian diet, which is sometimes called lacto-ovo-vegetarian. A vegan diet includes no animal foods. A raw foods vegan diet includes no cooked food. Note that any kind of a vegetarian diet may require doing some research to insure that you are getting sufficient nutrition. For instance you may need to look at protein, as well as vitamin B12 (which generally is only found in animal food). Some people take supplemnts, some people prefer not to. But there may be a need for a B12 supplement.

Fasting

Fasting can be a very powerful way to detoxify the body. The concept of "intermittant fasting" has recently become popular. This refers to eating within a small timeframe every day - such as not eating after 6pm and then not eating breakfast or anything early in the morning. So you might eat breakfast/lunch at noon, supper at 6 and you would be fasting for 18 hours every day. Some diets may be called "fast-mimicking".

More radically, some people fast for days drinking only water, or sometimes juices. Many years ago I fasted twice for 13 days each, drinking juices. Water fasting is a step farther. And I have recently come across the concept of dry fasting (see book below).

Dick Gregory used to fast every year for 40 days on water. In 1981 he fasted on a gallon of water a day for 70 days under doctors' supervision at Dillard University's Flint-Goodridge Hospital in New Orleans. After 70 days, he walked and jogged 100 miles from New Orleans to Baton Rouge. (this is documented in Ebony Magazine, DEC 1981, pages 37-46, which can be found here.)
He also used to run across the country from New York to California drinking only juices. His fasts were actually more for reasons of social change rather than his health, and he may have taken things a bit far. But anyway, it is well established that humans can fast for 40 days on only water, as mentioned in the Bible.

If you decide to try fasting, I recommend read a bit about it first.

Mushrooms

mushrooms contain beta-glucans - improves immune system

American women have 6 times as much breast cancer as Chinese women
this may be partly due to mushrooms and green tea
a 2009 study of Chinese women found that eating 15 mushrooms per month and drinking 15 cups of green tea per month reduced breast cancer by 90%
http://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19048616/

may be better to eat mushrooms cooked, as cooking destroys a toxin called agaritine

Probiotics / Fermentation

The importance of the microbiome in the intestines is kind of a new discovery. Healthy gut flora is an important component of physical health. Many supplements are available and there are many foods which contain probiotics.

research for absorption
Probiotic supplements can be expensive - compare and find good deals or look for sales. Ideally kept refrigerated.

I have read that probiotics in yogurt do not make it past the stomach, whereas probitoics in saurkraut do make it to the intestines.
Fermented foods in general are a good source of probiotics

Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/dp/0914955934/
This is a densely packed book - lots of information. From the back cover: "While modern medicine has long recognized the healing potential of herbs (some of the most commonly used cancer medicines were originally developed from herbs), we have been indoctrinated to believe that surgery, radiation, and chemical therapies are the only successful procedures, even though they tend to fail much of the time and may actually destroy the quality of life to such a degree that many believe the "cure" is worse than the disease. There is another approach to the treatment of cancer. Finding cancer's root causes and applying a holistic understanding of lifestyle, diet, stress-reduction and appropriate nutritional and herbal support can strengthen the body and its immune system, restore the spirit and balance the psyche of the cancer patient. With this integrative approach, a healthy mental and emotional balance joins a healthy approach to life to truly treat cancer. Not every cancer patient is "cured", but every patient is brought to a state of understanding which in many cases leads to what appear to be miraculous remissions. In other cases, it allows the individual to experience a quality of life and passing uncommon in our society: the ability to face life and death with dignity and a sense of completion." Highly recommended.

It is very easy to make ginger tea with fresh ginger root -
just chop off a chunk or a slice and boil in water for a while.
I keep a chunk in the Revereware saucepan for a few days at a time.
So it is always in my tea or coffee water.
Can also chop up some fresh ginger for cooking. Or juice it.
A little goes a long way. Someone gave me a tip - if you keep some ginger in the freezer, it is easier to grate, such as for a salad.

Jason Winters Tea

Sir Jason Winters was a cancer patient who was given 3 months to live in 1977, after radiation therapy. He travelled the world looking for a cure. He found laetrile, which seemed to make his cancer go away, but it came back. He then tried some herbs - red clover, chaparral (which is sometimes interchanged with Indian sage), and "herbalene" which is a fake name for 2 herbs that he kept secret. The tea from these herbs supposedly made his cancer go away (he died many years later in 2004). He also stopped smoking and drinking and changed his diet. The tea can be bought at Amazon or at the official site, which is run by Jason's son, Sir Raymond Winters. I searched for the scientific paper mentioned on the official site on this page - http://sirjasonwinters.com/scientific-documentation-herbalene/, and found that the secret herbs making up herbalene are Astragulus root (Astragulus membranaceus) and Chinese broadleaf privet seeds (Ligustrum lucidum). Here is that paper (from the July 1983 edition of the journal Cancer) - http://acsjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/1097-0142(19830701)52%3A1<70%3A%3AAID-CNCR2820520114>3.0.CO%3B2-S

Essiac -

Promoted by nurse Rene Caisse (backwards=essiac) in the 1920's.
She claimed it was given to her by a patient who got it from an Ontario Ojibwa medicine man.

Consists of 4 herbs -
Burdock root (Arctium lappa)
Slippery elm bark (Ulcus fulva)
Sheep sorrel leaves - (Rumex acetosella)
Indian rhubard root or Turkey rhubard root (Rheum palmatum)

Caisse later modified the original formula to include 4 additional herbs. She called this Flor-Essence. The additional herbs are watercress, blessed thistle, red clover and kelp.

Various Essiac products can be found in health food stores.
An online source for Essiac Tea -
remedies.net

Now brand makes capsules labelled "Ojibwa Herbal Extract" which contain the original 4 herbs. Many proponents say that the herbs need to be brewed.

Vitamins, Other Supplements

Micronutrient Information Center at Linus Pauling Institute, Oregon State University:
http://lpi.oregonstate.edu/mic
Massive amount of information on vitamins and minerals.

Wikipedia - Vitamin: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitamin

Vitamins A,D and E are oil soluble and can accumulate in body tissues.
Vitamin C and the B vitamins are water-soluble. They can be taken in large amounts, since excess is excreted.

Vitamin D

can get from exposure to sun
can get from cod liver oil
supplements are cheap
best to take with K2 and with magnesium especially if using high doses
some supplements indicate K2 in MK4 form, some in MK7 form
there may be some debate as to which is best

Vitamin C (ascorbic acid)

Vitamin C is water soluble, can be taken in high doses - excess is excreted.
It is an essential nutrient - our body does not make it. (most other mammals do).

http://www.havecurewilltravel.life

Linus Pauling (1901-1994) did a lot of research and writing on vitamin C, which was well-known in the 1970's.
http://orthomolecular.org
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linus_Pauling
Book: Cancer and Vitamin C - Linus Pauling, Ewan Cameron - 1993 - 278 pages

there may be reasons to use intravenous vitamin C
IV vitamin C may not be readily available, and possibly the same effect may be achieved with high-dose oral ingestion, but there may be a difference in how the vitamin C is processed in the body

Intravenous Vitamin C in Cancer - A Brief Overview of its Use and Considerations - Michael N. Traub
Natural Medicine Journal AUG 27, 2014
http://naturalmedicinejournal.com/journal/intravenous-vitamin-c-cancer

search pubmed for scientific papers on vitamin C

Lypo-spheric - LivOn Labs - 30 1g packets $40 Amazon
(this is a popular lipsomal form, but a bit expensive)
Liposomal Vitamin C - Wholesome Wellness - 200 caps 1.5g $18 Amazon
(this is a much less expensive liposomal form of vitamin C, which is what I take)

Vitamin E

Vitamin E occurs in 8 isoforms - alpha tocopherol, beta tocopherol, gamma tocopherol, delta tocopherol, alpha tocotrienol, beta tocotrienol, gamma tocotrienol, and delta tocotrienol.
Alpha tocopherol is the only form that causes or remedies vitamin E deficiency.
If taking supplements, it might be good to take one that has all 8 forms.

Vitamin E has been found to have anticancer effects, but more research is needed

see Cracking Cancer Toolkit Chapter 41
one caution with vitamin E is that it is a blood-thinner (for instance should not be used prior to surgery)

Vitamin A

can get from carrot juice
oil-soluble - builds up in body - can over-dose (probably not a concern with drinking carrot juice, but don't overdo supplements)

Vitamin B12

Vitamin B12 is only found in animal foods. Therefore, it is important to take a vitamin B12 supplement if following a 100% plant-based or vegan diet.

What Every Vegan Should Know About Vitamin B12 - The Vegan Society -
http://www.vegansociety.com/resources/nutrition-and-health/nutrients/vitamin-b12/what-every-vegan-should-know-about-vitamin-b12

Lypsomal forms of vitamins and other supplements may increase bioavailability which increases absorption of the nutrient.

Turpentine, the Fountain of Youth, According to Dr Jennifer Daniels

A similar "therapy" is MMS - Miracle Mineral Solution, which is the consumption of sodium dioxide, made by combining sodium chlorite (bleach), with an acid such as vinegar or citrus juice. I am also very skeptical of this.

C60 / Buckminsterfullerene

60 carbon atoms arranged in a soccer-ball like sphere -
20 hexagons and 12 pentagrams, each doubled-bonded edge crowned with a single carbon atom.

Buckminster Fuller (1895-1983) hypothesized its existence in 1979 and predicted that it would revolutionize medicine.

Discovered in 1985 by Robert Curl, Harold Kroto, Richard Smalley.
They were awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1996.
They named it Buckminsterfullerene. AKA Buckyballs, AKA Fullerene, AKA C60 (fullerene actually refers to a whole class of such molecules)

The single most powerful anti-oxidant ever discovered.

Joe Tippens

He tells his story at his blog site here:

http://www.mycancerstory.rocks (blog, protocol)

AUG 2016 diagnosed w lung cancer, goes to MD Anderson, starts treatment
JAN 2017 - metastasized, MD Anderson gives 3 months to live
he saw Facebook post - if you know someone with cancer, call me
Joe knew this man, a large animal veterinarian in Oklahoma
he told Joe about fenbedazole, which had been found to remove brain cancer in mice and in humans
he took 222mg 3 days a week, also CBD and curcumin
MAY 2017 - all cancer gone - NED (no evidence of disease)
APR 2022 - still alive and well, cancer-free, living in Edmond, OK

Private Facebook group (details, including password, at above site) -
http://www.facebook.com/groups/mycancerstoryrocks/
Group has over 32,000 members as of March 2022

(find also on Facebook - Fenbendazole Cancer Support Group)
(a private group with over 36,000 members)

1hr20min video - DEC 21, 2021 Q&A Session with Joe Tippens (from blog)

Joe used Panacur C or Safeguard, both made by Merck - can get at Amazon or other online sources, or pet stores, farm stores, vets, etc.
PanacurC says on box and inner bag -
"manufactured by Intervet GesmbH, Vienna, Austria, made in Austria"
Safeguard says on box and bag - "Formulated in Austria, made in China"
Joe's protocol is 222mg per dose (this is the amount in each 1-gram packet of Panacur C)
Panacur-C comes in 1g, 2g, 4g packets, for different size dogs
each gram has 222mg fenbendazole, so always measure to 1-gram
(a four gram packet would be divided into 4 parts, each would be one dose)
Yellow box=3x 1g packets, Green box=3x 2g packets, Red box=3x 4g packets
Amazon - 5boxes w 3x1g packs ea = 15 doses@$40wtax= $2.67 per 222mg dose
NOTE - regardless of the packet size (Panacur and Safeguard), the powder is 22.2% fenbendazole, so every gram of powder contains 222mg of fenbendazole.
Safeguard comes in 1g, 2g, 4g packets, for different size dogs,
each gram has 222mg fenbendazole, so always measure to 1-gram
Orange box=1g, Blue box=2g, Red box=4g
(222mg is dose for a 10lb dog)
can also get 1lb, which is a years supply and is cheaper
Some people are taking double or more the original dose.
Some people are taking this every day, sometimes long term.
It is in granular form - can put on food. It is tasteless.
Joe originally took 222mg 3 days on, 4 days off to protect liver.
He later decided that it is safe for the liver.
(a study showing liver damage in mice gave them 100s of times this dose)
He says he will take for the rest of his life to insure no return of cancer.
Joe also took
CBD - 25mg/day
Theracumin bioavailable Curcumin 600mg/day
originally took vitamin E, but stopped using and removed from protocol
(NOTE - Clif High states that fenbendazole needs to be activated with vitamin E in tocotrienol form (Substack newsletter 05/25/22). I do not know where he got this information).

Joe did not make any dietary changes or follow a strict diet

OCT 2021 - Joe revised protocol - 1- fenbendazole 222mg every day (previously 3 days on, 4 days off)
2 - replaces CBD with - (bioavailable full spectrum CDB, frankincense) (previously used Theracurumin HP by Integrative Therapeutics) Onco-Adjunct Pathway 1 ($275)
Contains - Frankincense 250mg, Holos Full Spectrum Hemp Cryogenic Extract 320mg, Holos Nano MCT 500mg, CBGa (Cannabigerol) 7mg, (THC content less than 0.3%)
3 - replaces turmeric with - Onco-Adjunct Pathway 2 ($54) (bioavailable curcumin, quercetin)
Contains - UltraCur-Pro LPS Cysteine-Curcumin 300mg, UltraQuercetin-Pro LPS Cysteine-Quercetin Complex 200mg, Frankencense 100mg,
4 - adds berberine - (bioavailable form)
Onco-Adjunct Pathway 3 ($30) contains - UltraBer LPS Whey Protein-Berberine Complex (Berberine HCL) 1200mg
These products are made by UltraBotanica - http://ultrabotanica.com
Based in OKC

NOTE - Clif High states that fenbendazole needs to be activated with vitamin E in tocotrienol form (Substack newsletter 5/25/22). I do not know where he got this information).
Here is a paper I found documenting some science behind Joe Tippens' protocol. https://cdn.website-editor.net/4dcb0b7185374fe5898d4ec7af91eb8d/files/uploaded/Joe%2520Tippens%2527%2520Protocol%2520and%2520Scientific%2520Backing.pdf
This appears to be based on the original protocol, which included vitamin E. Joe removed the vitamin E from the protocol at some point before he revised it in 2021, and still does not include vitamin E. I think Joe removed the vitamin E due to it being a blood thinner, and thus interfering with other blood thinners (causing danger during or after surgery). So he I think he removed it since he did not think it necessary and did not want potential problems for anyone on the protocol. Vitamin E has been shown in many studies to have anticancer effect. When Joe did recommend it, he recommended to use Life Extension brand "Gamma E Mixed Tocopherols and Tocotrienols", which contains all 8 forms (alpha, beta, delta, and gamma tocotrienols and tocopherols).

fenbendazole can cause elevated liver enzymes
does not always occur, corrects quickly with a pause from use
milk thistle can be taken for liver health, also look into TUDCA

Fenbendazole is in the Benzimidazole family of anti-parasitic drugs - (Albendazole, Mebendazole, Thiabendazole, Fenbendazole, Triclabendazole, Flubendazole)
Mebendazole is FDA approved for human use (prescribed for pinworms and other parasitic infections). On WHO list of essential medicines.
In the US a single dose was $18 in 2015. Price increased to $440 per dose in 2016, as Amedra Pharmaceuticals acquired the rights from Teva in 2013. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mebendazole

Cannabis - RSO/FECO

Cannabis has been used for recreation and medicine in many parts of the world for thousands of years. There are no recorded deaths from using cannabis.

The cannabis plant contains roughly 500 different chemical compounds, including Cannabinoids (such as CBD, THC, CBG, CBN, THCa, CBDa) and Terpenes.

THC, CBD, and CBG may each have particular anti-cancer properties. CBD and moreso CBG may offset psychoactive effects of THC.

CBN - Cannabinol - Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannabinol

Terpenes -

Besides cannabinoids, there are also many various terpenes found in cannabis, which vary from one strain to another. The terpenes may be just as important as the cannabinoids in producing medicinal and other effects. See the new book The Big Book of Terps (below) for the most comprehensive information yet published on cannabis terpenes.

Scientific paper (published DEC 2020 in the journal Molecules):

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/labs/pmc/articles/PMC7763918/

Terpenes: The 10 Most Common in Cannabis
http://www.weedweek.com/all-about-weed/terpenes/

Most Common Terpenes in Indica Strains
Myrcene, Beta-Caryophyllene, Linalool, Limonene, Humulene
Myrcene has a highly sedative effect.

Most Common Terpenes in Sativa Strains
Pinene, Terinoline, Limonene.
Limonene has a an uplifting effect.

B-Caryophyllene
this terpene has many medicinal effects

Rick Simpson Oil - RSO
(see also books and video in sections below)
RSO protocol for cancer is to take 60g over 90 days
can make it - need rice cooker
use isopropyl alcohol 99% or Everclear
(can also evaporate without heat, in which case, should be decarbed)

FECO - Full Extract Cannabis Oil
FECO is the same thing as RSO, but always made with food grade ethanol alcohol (such as Everclear), rather than with iso or naptha.

can buy RSO or FECO in dispensaries (in legal states) or online

I have seen 1gram syringes of various brands of FECO or RSO for around $25-$30 in Oklahoma dispensaries in 2022-2023.
One example -
PurpleFECO brand - $30 for 1gram syringe http://PurpleFECO.com
1 bought a syringe 02/28/22 - El Strainyo (hybrid) - contains 622mg THC
has some CBG, no CBD or other cannabinoids, lots of terpenes
I measured approximately 16 rice grain sized doses - 622/16=39mg per dose

http://buyricksimpsonoil.com 1g syringe = $60
60g = $1600 (for full 90-day treatment)
seems to be a reliable source (in sidebar at reddit/r/RickSimpsonOil
I have seen some online prices over $200/g,
local dispensary prices may be as low as $25/g
It is cheap and easy to make your own.

The Pechoti Method says that you can adminster RSO by putting it in your belly button. This will supposedly give maximum efficacy without psychoactive effects.

cannabis can be eaten raw
THCA, CBDA, CBGA have not been converted to THC, CBD, CBG through heating

Alkalinizing

It may be recommended to look into alkalinzing the body, which may be normal and achieved by a normal healthy diet. For some people, dietary changes may be needed. Or there might be benefits to using baking soda or apple cider vinegar or lemon juice.

Scientific paper
(published NOV 24 2015 in International Journal of Complementary and Alternative Medicine):
Alkalizing Nutritional Therapy in the Prevention and Reversal of any Cancerous Condition
http://medcraveonline.com/IJCAM/alkalizing-nutritional-therapy-in-the-prevention-and-reversal-of-any-cancerous-condition.html

Sodium Bicarbonate (baking soda)

alkalinizing

can test ph of saliva and/or urine with inexpensive ph test strips

http://simoncinicancertherapy.com

http://drsircus.com/sodium-bicarbonate-baking-soda/

enemas can be taken for colon cancer
1oz baking soda to 5oz water, hold in for up to an hour
do not do for more than 3-4 days in a row

baking soda can be taken orally to alkalinize the whole body.
recommended doses are generally small, like 1/4tsp in water 1-2 times per day
should not be taken before or with a meal, since it can neutralize HCL
do not drink every day

baking soda can be added to coffee to counteract acidity
I wondered about this and then googled it - lots of search results

apple cider vinegar (ACV)
unlike other vinegars, though acidic, ACV may promote alkalinity
can do enemas with ACV
see Bragg book on Apple Cider Vinegar

He promoted HIFU - High Intensity Focused Ultrasound. I do not have this book. Might be much to learn, but proceed with caution.

Wikipedia - Prostate Cancer - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prostate_cancer

PSA test is a blood test that shows the level of Prostate-Specific Antigen in the blood. PSA is a protein produced by normal and malignant cells of the prostate gland. The result is reported as nanograms of PSA per milliliter of blood (ng/mL).

A high PSA level can indicate cancer, but can also be caused by prostatitis (inflamation of the prostate) or by benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) (enlargement of the prostate). A high level may not indicate cancer and cancer can be present with a low level.

A normal PSA level is 1.0 to 1.5, but varies with age. (ideally PSA is 0) 40-50 years - 0-2.5
50-60 years - 2.5-3.5
60-70 years - 3.5-4.5
70-80 years - 4.5-5.5

medically, a PSA score above 10 is of concern (some doctors say a PSA score over 4 is of concern)

A PSA level over 100 generally indicates stage 4 cancer.
PSA level can go into the hundreds, even over 1000. (there is no limit on the scale - the highest PSA level ever recorded is 7941)
http://www.sciendo.com/article/10.1515/amma-2016-0044

A fast rise in PSA level is more concerning than a particular level.

Ejaculation may cause a significant rise in PSA concentration, which can persist for up to 48 hours (can affect test results) http://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/8638359/

DRE - Digital Rectal Examination - checks for hardened prostate (induration) and for masses (nodulation), either of which may indicate cancer. Performed by a doctor, inserting a gloved finger into the anus. Normally quick and painless. (should normally always be included in a colonoscopy)

Gleason grading system helps evaluate prognosis of men with prostate cancer using samples from a prostate biospy. Gleason score ranges from 2 to 10. (some sources say scores range from 6-10, there have been revisions) There are 5 patterns or architectural types of tumors in the Gleason system. The Gleason score is obtained by adding together the pattern numbers of the primary and secondary grades (or the primary and tertiary grades, if the tertiary has a higher pattern number than the secondary). The primary grade is the dominant pattern of the tumor, more than 50%. The secondary grade is less than 50% and more than 5%. A tertiary grade may be a small component of a more aggressive pattern. Scores of 2-4 indicates very small tumors, generally not treated Scores 5-7 are the majority of treated prostate cancers. Scores of 8-10 can be advanced neoplasms, unlikely to be cured.

Androgen Deprivation Therapy (ADT) (AKA HAT - Hormone Ablation Therapy) ADT reduces levels of androgen hormones, such as testosterone, since prostate cancer cells require adrogen hormones to grow
sometimes used in advanced cases along with radiation therapy
generally ADT does not make cancer go away, it just stops it from growing.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Androgen_deprivation_therapy
One medication commonly used for ADT in prostate cancer is Lupron (Leuprorelin)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leuprorelin
if nausea is experienced as a side effect, you might try papaya enzyme for relief. see book above on ADT by Wasserman

Brachytherapy AKA Internal Radiation Therapy -
a sealed radiation source (small capsule, seed, ribbon, bead) is placed in the body next to a tumor.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brachytherapy

Proton Therapy - a newer, advanced type of radiation treatment which is very precise, resulting in less radiation to surrounding tissue
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proton_therapy
see book above - You Can Beat Prostate Cancer - Robert Marckini

prostatectomy - removal of the entire prostate gland
(also called radical prostatectomy or RP)
Da Vinci procedure - prostate is removed by robotic surgery

Lung Cancer

Wikipedia - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lung_cancer

#1 cancer in men is prostate cancer, #1 cancer in women is breast cancer
#2 cancer in men and women is lung cancer
ACS estimates 237K new case of lung cancer in the US in 2022
Lung cancer is leading cause of cancer death, 25% of all cancer deaths.
More yearly deaths from lung cancer than colon, breast, prostate combined.

NSCLC Non Small Cell Lung Cancer (85% of lung cancers)
Lung Adenocarcinoma (40% of lung cancers)
Squamous Cell Lung Cancer (30% of lung cancers)
AKA squamous cell carcinoma of the lung AKA epidermoid carcinoma
Large Cell Lung Cancer (2-10% of lung cancers)

Wikipedia - Polyps - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyp_(medicine)

In anatomy, a polyp is an abnormal growth of tissue projecting from a mucous membrane.

colon polyps -
1% per year may become cancerous
polyps are found and removed during a colonoscopy
polyps as small as 1mm may be removed
the only way to know if precancerous is biopsy
normally polyps removed in colonoscopy are biopsied
removed polyps can recur at the same site
it takes 5-10 years for a polyp to turn into cancer
if more than 2 polyps, any large or high risk polyps - it will be recommended to repeat colonoscopy in 3-5 years
a colonoscopy is regarded as the best way to find colon cancer

Colon Health:

The best way to promote a healthy colon is to have a healthy diet, with sufficient fiber being of top importance. A diet with plenty of vegetables, fruits, beans, whole grains should have plent of fiber. A suppplement can be taken to insure that you are getting enough fiber. I recommend powdered psyllium seed husk, which is available in capsules as well as bulk powder. I don't take this every day, since I normally have plenty of fiber in my diet, but I might take some if I have been eating some meals that don't have so much fiber. Probiotics may be important also, especially after taking antibiotics. Exercise has a good effect on colon health. Staying hydrated is important for digestion and elimination and overall health.

Colonic Irritation / Colon Hydrotherapy

Some people might recommend colonics for detoxification. A colonic is performed by a therapist trained in colonic irrigation. A machine is used to move water into and out of the colon. This is more thorough than an enema. Sometimes people add coffee or probiotics or nutrients to water used in enemas or colonics, as the colon can absorb such substances more efficiently than taking by mouth. Although this might be a helpful therapy, it is probably not really necessary for most people who have a good diet with plenty of fiber. Same with enemas and laxatives.

There are various supplements and practices that are used to help with digestion, elimination, constipation, etc. Note that constipation is usually the result of a lack of fiber and a lack of hydration.

Nauli Kriya

Nauli kriya is a yogic practice in which abdominal muscles are isolated and trained to massage the lower abdominal cavity. There are many videos on Youtube illustrating and instructing in this practice. This is often shown and taught in a seated position, such as in lotus, but it is much easier to learn and practice while standing. It can be considered an advanced practice that can take a while to learn. Note that while this may be an excellent way to help in maintaining colon health, it may be possibly not be advisable in some conditions, such as some stages of colon cancer (or it might be helpful).

Radiation Treatment (AKA radiotherapy or radiation therapy or RT)

http://radiologyinfo.org
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiology
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiation_therapy
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medical_imaging

doses of radiation are measured in grays (Gy)
this applies to radiation treatments for cancer

health effects of low levels of radiation are measured in sieverts (Sv)
this applies to radiation exposure from x-rays and CT scans

1 gray (Gy) = 1 sievert (Sv)

1 sievert = 1000 millisieverts (mSv)

1 sievert = 100 rem (older non-SI unit of measurement)

A gray is defined as the absorption of one joule of radiation energy per kilogram of matter. The gray was adopted as an SI measurement in 1975. The gray replaces the rad as the corresponding cgs unit
1 rad = 0.01Gy

a typical therapy pose might be 45 - 60 Gy

a CT scan can have 100 to 1000 times the radiation of an x-ray

3-5% of cancers are caused by diagnostic radiation

EBRT - External Beam Radiotherapy

proton therapy - very precise external beam radiation

Emotional, Mental, Spiritual

We can see cancer as a physical problem in the physical body. This is how cancer is seen by modern medicine. And I tend to focus on the physical approaches to healing the problem of cancer in the physical body. Most of this entire webpage covers that approach. But we can also see the human physical body as one part of the whole person. In a "holistic" view, we also include emotional, mental and spiritual aspects of a person. We could also term this as body, heart, mind and soul. It may be true that many people have healed cancer solely through faith, prayer, visualization, hope, positive mental attitude, etc. I would certainly not recommend overlooking the physical approach to healing cancer, but I would also recommend paying some attention to the holistic approach. A positive mental attitude can be very important. It is well-established that negative emotions and thoughts (anger, hate, fear, doubt, stress), can have physical effects on the body. So we certainly want to work on addressing such thoughts and emotions. Also there is a lot of science on the placebo effect.

And that's how science and medicine are advanced. Its by people refusing to take the status quo." from documentary Cancer: The Emperor Of All Maladies - Episode 2 (at timestamp 5min40sec)

"There are two kinds of cancer patients: the ones who believe cancer is a death sentence and the ones who look for answers." found in a book review at Amazon for How I Beat Pancreatic Cancer, written by a doctor who knows the author.

"A patient cured is a patient lost."
