Cancer Alternatives

Nothing strikes fear more into a person's heart than being told they have cancer. A death sentence. A sudden end to their hopes and dreams. This blog concerns just such a situation. If you are told, by someone who should know, that you have cancer, take it seriously. My suggestion would be to immediately contact the following: Ralph Moss, Ph.D ( Cancerdecisions.com). Dr Moss has a wonderful site and resources for making your next decision. Drugs/ surgery/radiation are the most typical options offered. In their place they are life saving, but as is the case in most medical situations these days, over done. Please understand that cancer takes a while to develop. The body , as a rule , deals with cells out of place or functioning wrong, all the time. For a cancer to have established itself in the body is usually ( in my opinion..always) a sign that something has been ignored for a while. Cancers can be roughly divided into two groups...a tumor growing or a body part/area being destroyed. If a tumor, is it a body part getting bigger or a different type of cell which is growing it should not be (metastasis). In either case the goal is to aid and abet the body in returning to the state of health which it wants to be . Now there may be the need to remove a tumor or even a body part/limb, but as a rule exposing the body to even more stress from drugs/radiation never made sense to me. Some natural medicine sources urge people to go on extended fasts or quit eating nutrient rich foods (protein/fat), but that can be dangerous too in as much as the body needs resources to heal. Taking a controlled fast can be useful and if a cancer is well established too many good nutrients may feed the cancer's growth, so getting good advice is the key to this.
The bottom line no matter what you choose to do , you need to figure out what was causing the problem in the first place and change that behavior . It could be you're using the cell phone too much ( E-M fields), not enough good nutrients, too many drugs (prescription/ OTC/ street ), too much stress for your body to handle, poor elimination of waste products (constipation, lack of clean water, anti perspirents) . As I've said before ,you don't have to be extreme about it all, but you do have to take care of the basics , or some form of health problem will arise.
Thank you for reading this . Next time I'd like to talk about breast feeding for infants and what a great leg up that is for them. I recently talked with the La Leche contact person in Cleveland Co. What a great resource is available here.
