Episode 2 of Global Quest - Cancer Facts and Fictions, Breast Cancer, Skin Cancer and Essential Oils
Quote by Mark Twain - it's easier to fool people than to convince them they have been fooled.
Dr Bita Badakhshan - what is cancer? A: abnormal cell growth. Cells lose normal apoptosis - ie programmed cell death. The body makes 10,000-100,000 abnormal cells everyday. The immune system usually gets rid of the abnormal cells. A cause of cancer is a weakened immune system.
Dr Linda Isaacs - cells are no longer responding to signals to quit. Cancer cells become immortal - they never die. The genetic regulation has been damaged in those cells.
Cancer cells invade and metastasize - the most dangerous aspect. 90% die from the metastasis.
G Edward Griffin - a farmer doesn't cut off the black spots on their corn and expect the corn to be alright. They look for the cause of the black spots.
Dr Irina Kossovskaia - a cause of cancer: cell communication is broken.
An oncologist will not ask what causes the cancer.
Dr Ben Johnson - have to orchestrate healing.
Parasites suppress the immune system.
Dr Howard Fisher on causes of cancer:
18% of cancer is caused by infection.
23% is linked to obesity.
41% linked to environmental factors.
18% unknown - genetic?
Dr Joseph Mercola - obesity can mean insulin resistance. Lack of physical activity, inflammation, poor diet, sugar. Type 2 diabetes - obesity. Need to do intermittent fasting. We weren't designed to sit down for many hours. It's good to walk, regular movement is important.
BRCA gene - women with it are afraid they're going to get breast cancer. Epigenetics - the environment that acts upon your genes, is the key to gene expression. Can open and close cancer genes.
Plant medicines can turn cancer genes off. The body is the hardware, epigenetics is the software. Can activate and de-activate genes. Healthy lifestyle to de-activate bad genes. Toxic exposures turn genes on or off. The way we live our life will alter the gene expression.
Dr Rob Verkerk, exec dir, Alliance for Natural Health - the BRCA gene is actually protective. It repairs DNA damage. If it mutates, a problem. What causes it to mutate? - A: what we eat, how we sleep, our stress level.
Curcumin in turmeric turns on cancer protective genes!
Breast cancer awareness month - Charlotte Haley started the movement in 1992 with 5 little peach ribbons she gave out, with a letter about how little was spent on cancer research.
Estee Lauder wanted to use her ribbons. Charlotte said she didn't want to support corporations. Estee Lauder has exploited the ribbon. Made them pink instead.
The breast cancer movement hasn't changed anything. Should be Breast Health Awareness Month instead of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. The marches are funded by the corporations, by the company who patented tamoxifen, the drug used to treat breast cancer.
Mammograms are of no benefit. They involve ionizing radiation. Also they smash breast tissue with 50 lbs of pressure. Could that release cancer cells? Dr Ben Johnson says mammograms cause cancer.
Breast cancer takes 7-12 years to grow to the point of diagnosis. There is a pressure to act, but it took a long time to get to that point. Better to educate oneself.
There is 4x more lymph than blood. Its purpose includes neutralizing poisons by diluting them and carrying them away.
Sayer Ji - mammograms are overdone, expose breast tissue to radiation. Especially if women have the BRCA1 and 2 gene mutations. 1.3 million women overdiagnosed with breast cancer in early stages. Called ductal carcinoma in situ. It's not actually cancer.
Brenda Michaels healed her breast cancer naturally. You have to transform the whole person. You're sick before the cancer starts.
Dr Veronique DeSaulniers - 7 step essentials:
1) let food be your medicine
2) detox - reduce toxic exposure
3) balance your energy. Do chiropractic, acupuncture, exercise, get proper sleep, balance hormones
4) heal emotional wounds. Learn to nurture oneself, love yourself. Let go of the past. Don't stuff emotion in. Either grow your life or grow a tumor.
5) Biological dentistry - teeth connected to your organs through meridians. Remove toxic amalgams.
(My addition here - the Holistic Dental Summit said mouths infection may be linked to lymphoma - ie, mouth/jaw/neck proximity. Use 3D imaging
to see if there's any hidden mouth infections)
6) Take supplements - herbs, vitamins. Kills cancer cells, boosts immune system.
7) Prevention - detect cancer when size of pinhead. Use thermography instead. It can show
early changes.
There are better tests for cancer detection. Do blood tests to monitor any cancer:
1)HCG hormone
2)PH1 - malignancy hormone
3)TK1 enzyme
4)oncoblot test. Can detect cancer size of a pinhead.
Dr Martin Bales - his father was a pioneer in detection. He invented thermography! He first did missile detection in Afghanistan, looking for heat. Now it's done with digital infrared cameras.
In the early 80s, doctors approached his dad to diagnose cancer. Ok, he said, I'll make a medical version.
Thermography is skin-deep. It's painless, no radiation involved. Can do as often as want to.
Cancers go through neo-angiogenesis, when the surrounding blood supply grows. It takes 8-10 years to become the size of a pea. It takes blood - ie with heat - to do that. So that's a principle of early detection. When blood vessels are growing, they're warm. Thermography is 2/3 accurate at finding a pea-size cancer.
Get off sugar - it's a poison! Cancer cells have more insulin receptors than normal cells, and will uptake the sugar faster. Why radioactive sugar is used to detect it. Oncology offices should not serve sweets to their patients!!
Healing keys - a healthy gut/immune system. Need to rebuild immune system.
Dr Jonathan Wright - re bioidentical hormones, same as our own hormones. There are estrogen-related cancers.
Dr Veronique DeSaulniers - It's a myth that women's hormones cause cancer. It's not our hormones - it's what we're exposed to.
There's xeno-estrogens from pesticides, herbicides, fungicides, etc. Anti-perspirants contain metallo estrogens, which stimulate estrogen.
If there is a problem with breaking them down, more will circulate. Need to methylate them.
So causes of cancer can include xeno-estrogens, also difficulty methylating them.
Dr Nalini Chilkin - we're not designed to be exposed to unnatural chemicals. Pesticides and herbicides are acting like hormones which make cells with estrogen receptors grow.
Breast cancer and prostate cancer are hormone-driven. Colon, pancreatic and lung cancer also have estrogen receptors.
Plastics have a hormone-like effect. BPA is bisphenol A - it's a synthetic estrogen, a xeno- estrogen. it has dose-dependent effects.
A low dose interacts with both ERa and ERb - estrogen receptor A and estrogen receptor B. A higher dose has anti-androgenic activity. Xeno-estrogens throw hormones out of whack.
Dr Eric Zelinski - Essential oils are volatile organic compounds. They are turpenes, alcohols, esters, ketones, etc.
In India, they use a lot of lemon essential oil to clean, detox, etc.
In Australia, they use melaleuca, which is tea tree oil; also eucalyptus.
In Oregon, they use peppermint EO.
Every EO has an impact on cancer:
1) they prevent angiogenesis - there's 130 research articles on this.
2) they stop metastatic growth
3) they prevent DNA from being able to repair cancer cells
Frankincense EO - is the most natural anti-cancer oil. It's high in boswellia - ie boswellic acid, which is anti-inflam and anti-oxidant. It triggers apoptosis - ie cancer cells die.
Dr Josh Axe - calls frankincense oil the most powerful anti-cancer supplement, period! Says it can shrink tumors, including ovarian, colon, breast cancers.
EOs are very small molecular compounds. They can get through the blood-brain barrier and reduce neuroinflammation.
Someone's husband had a brain tumor, and was given 3 months to live. They infused frankincense EO, rubbed it on the roof of the mouth to reach the brain. He is still alive today, 6 years later. Frankincense is effective against brain inflammation.
Allison Huish, cancer conqueror - had a brainstem tumor, age 13, size of an egg on the brainstem. She was scheduled for surgery, got rid of half the tumor.
She researched frankincense and myrrh. If rub myrrh on a newborn, eases any bruising. Both can treat cancer.
Dr Sunil Pai - turmeric was the golden spice of the spice trade.
Myrrh works on the hypothalamus and the liver, to reduce inflammation and balance hormones.
A lot of cancers are estrogen-related.
Cruciferous vegetables with their indole-3 carbon helps to clear the body of xeno-estrogens in soy, plastic, etc. Helps detox the body. Boosts glutathione, which supports detox.
We can make our own EO body lotion:
Combine 10 drops of EO with coconut and shea butter, rub on entire body.
Used in aromatherapy.
Rub on neck, back of head. Our skin is our largest organ. Breathe it in too.
Lavendar EO - fights cancer
Sandalwood EO - fights cancer
Body moisturizers are loaded with chemicals. They contain cancerous parabens, phthalates, sodium (something) sulphite.
Make your own. Use frankincense, clove oil.
For a brainstem tumor: Put a drop of frankincense on tongue. Raise tongue to roof of mouth every two hours; it will get to the brainstem.
Allison got her health back, in junior high. Able to start school again. She was in a hospital for 9 days - most people are there for 6 weeks. She did EOs for 3 years, also good nutrition.
Slow improvement. The neurologist told her her tumor had completely disintegrated. Age 16 - told no tumor left. Like she had a new life again.
Josh Axe - healed his mom with EOs. She had breast cancer at age 42, still had an active life. She had a mastectomy, with chemo, her hair fell out. She was sick. Did the conventional medical model.
2nd time around, she did all natural treatment. She juiced vegetables everyday, took antioxidants, took probiotics, EOs. A 4-month protocol. Back to oncologist, did CT scan - the tumor had shrunk more than halfway. 9 months later, she was in remission.
Make healing smoothies, juice vegs. Ferment foods, or eat fermented foods.
Dr Jonathan Wright - there's a compound found in devil's apple plant in Australia. Also found in eggplant and green pepper. Called a d-glycoside - a sugar attached to something.
Dr Bill Chan worked on the plant at the university there, named the compound BEC5, initials of his name, Bill Edward Chan.
Farmers reported to him that their livestock, when they got cancer in their eyeball, rubbed their eyes against the plant and their eye cancer went away.
A membrane surrounds a cancer cell. Every cancer cell has a membrane change. Sugar from the BEC5 compound connects with the membrane around a cancer cell.
The cell pulls the sugar into the cell. The sugar goes into lysosomes, which are little bags of enzymes. It ruptures the enzymes and digests the cancer cells. The cells digest themselves to death.
Skin cancer - rub the BEC5 compound on it. Targeted for cancer cells. Broad spectrum. Won't hurt normal cells.
Dr Gaston Cornu-Labat - skin cancer is the most common cancer. The cream only targets cancer cells. When applied, the redness spreads, then it's like an open wound in the 1st or 2nd week. 2nd or 3rd week, normal skin comes in and covers it up.
BEC5 work for a lot of cancers. The cream pulls off skin cancer cells. OTC where legal.
The Australian dermatologists complained to the government admin about the BEC5 cream. Dr Bill Chan was selling it OTC, 70,000 people were cured of skin cancer!
The govt required that it be put on Rx only, only doctors should prescribe it. There went Dr Chan's business. Hardly any doctors Rx'ed it, couldn't get it anymore.
Dr Manuela Malaguti-Doyle -
Conventional med - one size fits all.
Integrative medicine - one size does not fit all.
220 different kinds of cancers, different for each person.
Cancer treatment: Hyperthermia machine chamber, IV Vit C, glutathione, alpha lipoic acid, dendritic vaccine injections.
Geoff Beaty, cancer survivor - swallowed a pill with a camera in it, found GI tumor. Doctors removed 1 ft of small intestine. Did chemo, gleivic. One year, no energy.
2 years later, a tumor on his neck, growing fast. He went to Dr Manuela, ND. Did so much better with radiation while on holistic tx. Less nausea, not fed by tube, less burns on neck. Did herbs, nutrients, good diet. "Healing comes from within."
Daniel in Atlanta - homeless guy with stage 4 lung cancer. Ty put frankincense drops on his tongue. Daniel said Ty showed him more care than the govt. Ty gave him a bottle of it.
Said in Q&A after the series that they couldn't find Daniel again, were looking for him.
Key to health - empower the person to do healing from within. Doctors to facilitate that process.
