This article and all material on this website is for educational purposes

diagnosis, treatment or prescription for any disease or condition.
Cancer is probably the most important
disease of the twenty-first century.
It wastes millions of lives.
Almost one of every two Americans will be diagnosed with cancer, and the
statistics are not that much better in other nations of the Western world.
Many more people develop cancer, but are
never diagnosed properly. The
cause of their death or disability is listed as a heart attack, diabetes or
something else. For these reasons,
cancer evokes terrible fear. Yet
my experience with it is that it is far from ÒincurableÓ, particularly if it
is:
1. Noticed early.
2. If one avoids radiation and
chemotherapy, when possible, and,
3. If one is willing to commit to a
program of deep healing.
4. If one realizes that
biopsies can be wrong, and they are often wrong!
5. If one stays away from
hormone therapy, chelation therapy, and follows the two therapies suggested in
this article.
This article will discuss cancerÕs
origins and natural approaches for its correction.
CANCER AND NUTRITIONAL BALANCING SCIENCE
Several
facts about cancer are essential for everyone to know:
1.
Doctors know that cancer can be very advanced and not present any major
symptoms. Just last
month, a friend called because his young son had minor surgery for an abdominal
problem. Much to everyoneÕs
surprise, his abdomen was full of cancer.
This is unfortunately a common story.
2.
Doctors know is that cancer can be a fast-moving, fatal illness. We
all know of people who are diagnosed with cancer, and they are gone within a
few weeks or even less. This means
that one must act quickly and decisively in some cases with this illness.
3.
Nutritional balancing science is not a treatment or prescription for any
disease. Instead, it is
a general and very thorough method of detoxifying, rebuilding and rebalancing
body chemistry. It is superb for
most physical and many mental and emotional health conditions, and often works
very quickly, but not necessarily.
It all depends on the person.
Combining these facts above one can understand that for advanced
cancers, nutritional balancing may be too slow a method of correction. For this reason only:
Nutritional balancing science and hair
mineral analysis are not recommended as the best methods to heal advanced
cancers at this time. However, for early cancers it is often
okay. I prefer that people check
with me about this before proceeding on a nutritional balancing program, as
perhaps I can suggest the best way to handle the situation if you call me at
(928) 445-7690 (Pacific time zone, USA).
In
addition, nutritional balancing can be used as an adjunctive and supportive
therapy for those who have elected to pursue conventional cancer treatment such
as chemotherapy, radiation or surgery.
If
one has advanced cancer and wishes to use only natural therapy, which I support
fully, then I only suggest one of the two methods discussed in one of the sections
below. Too many holistic
doctors are not experienced enough and the results are often not good with many
alternative therapies.
CONVENTIONAL CANCER DIAGNOSES
Breast
cancer diagnosis is an important subject.
For more on this important topic, read Breast
Cancer Screening And Prevention.
Also,
please be warned that biopsies can be unreliable. Please know this.
They can produce false positive and false negative results. A second warning is that pre-cancerous
lesions are not cancer. This is
also important to know because when people are given a cancer diagnosis, it can
cause extreme stress, depression, anxiety and the drugs and chemotherapy are,
at times, worse than the disease.
I know that is a strong statement, but it is true in some cases.
We
have had two cases recently of people who were on nutritional balancing
programs, and both suddenly developed ÒlumpsÓ, and were then diagnosed with
cancer. However, upon closer
investigation, one was actually told she just had pre-cancerous cells. Also, in both cases, the problem was a
healing reaction, I believe, and not cancer. Reasons
for the confusion and possible misdiagnoses are:
1.
Only on a nutritional balancing program, the body can move toxins easily into a
cyst or benign tumor to make them easier to remove. So a lump appears.
It is not cancer even though it contains some abnormal cells. If it is cancer, then it was there
before. A deep healing program
does not produce cancer, however.
2.
Lumps that appear during a nutritional balancing program, provided the person
actually does the entire program, are not likely new cancers because research
shows that most cancers are there for 5-10 years before they are big enough to
diagnose. While it is possible
that some type of product could cause a cancer quickly, no toxic products that
I am aware of are used with nutritional balancing. In fact, all of the supplements and foods have been
extensively tested in thousands of people over years.
CONVENTIONAL CANCER THERAPIES
Be
careful with conventional cancer therapies. The drugs, and especially radiation, can cripple the bodyÕs
immune response. They should be
reserved as a last resort, in my view, and rarely should they be used first, as
they usually are. Do not allow
people to put a lot of pressure on you in this area, if possible.
Cancer
is often a frightening condition and even the word strikes fear in many
people. This article and related
ones on this website approach this scary subject differently, and far more
hopefully than the medical way. The
reason I can write this article is that in 30 years of nutritional consulting,
I have seen MANY full recoveries from cancer, even advanced ones, without the
use of drugs, surgery or radiation.
This does not mean that the medical treatments are always wrong or bad. But it means that cancer is not
incurable and one must not cut, burn or poison the body in the effort to heal
it. In fact, these often get in
the way of deep and complete healing.
I
know that suggesting alternative methods of cancer care will sound outrageous
to some people, but it is true. In
fact, several common errors of the medical profession are totally inexcusable,
in my view. They include:
1.
Treating cancer as a local disease instead of a systemic one. This causes relapses or
recurrences. These are nothing
more than the progression of the same illness that was mistreated the first
time, usually with surgeries or other methods that do not strengthen the
system.
2.
Using extremely toxic drugs and radiation as a first line of treatment, rather
than last.
3.
Ignoring really high quality nutrition, diet, drinking water, supplements, and
lifestyle.
4.
Ignoring other wonderful procedures such as coffee enemas and the daily use of
a near infrared sauna.
5.
Overcharging for cancer treatment.
It does not matter if insurance pays for it. It is unconscionable how much some hospitals, doctors and
drug makers charge for cancer-related treatments.
6.
Falsifying research and statistics to mislead the public that they are getting
Òthe best treatmentÓ when their actual results are miserable in most instances.
As
just one example, a ÒcureÓ for a medical cancer treatment is generally defined
as no relapse for five years. If
however, the patient relapses and dies after five years and one day, the
patient is still counted as cured, when, in fact, the person died. This is bogus science, even if the
study was done at Harvard University or some other prestigious place.
This
corruption in the medical profession and medical research area is terrible and
very sad. One must consult
alternative sources of information about vaccines, drugs, cancer, nutrition and
many other health topics today to become clear about the truth. Here is a quote from a book about
cancer politics:
ÒThe
National Cancer Institute and the American Cancer Society have misled and
confused the public and Congress by repeated false claims that we are winning
the war against cancer – claims made to create public and Congressional
support for massive increases in budgetary appropriations.Ó
-
Dr. Samuel Epstein, MD, author of The Politics of Cancer Revisited,
1998.
This
is not an article about politics.
I include this quote, however, because it introduces a 770-page book
about the almost total corruption of government cancer research and the
American Cancer Society. The Òwar
on cancerÓ is largely a fraud and waste of taxpayer dollars, sadly, as it has
become controlled by the pharmaceutical industry and its allies.
Alternative
cancer methods, such as the two described in this article, have been
intentionally ignored and worse, lied about by the very agencies and
organizations people trust for information about cancer. This is important information and is
well-documented in The Politics of Cancer and similar books.
THE TRUTH ABOUT CANCER
Cancer,
according to many researchers, is a normal cell line of the body that expresses
at the wrong time and place. The
cell line is called the trophoblast.
The
word trophoblast means Òto nourish the blast or babyÓ. The cell line arises during the first
eight to twelve weeks of pregnancy.
Its function is to nourish the fetus until what is called the critical
period of pregnancy, when the placenta grows and takes over the job of
nourishing the fetus.
More
primitive or simpler life forms, including some mammals such as kangaroos and
others, never grow a placenta, as do most mammals including human beings. In these ancient and simpler life
forms, the trophoblast was and is the only tissue to nourish the fetus during
shorter pregnancies.
However,
it was and is not adequate for the higher animals that require longer pregnancy
periods for their more complex nervous systems and other organ development.
As
our bodies age and break down slowly, this older tissue line becomes more
active and this is what we call cancer.
This has been proven repeatedly in many studies and was discovered as
early as 1902 by John Beard, MD, a brilliant embryologist and physician.
THE TROPHOBLAST AND THE KELLEY METABOLIC CANCER THERAPY
The
Kelley metabolic cancer therapy is my number one favorite overall alternative
program for cancer. I do not offer
this therapy and I do not work with cancer at this time. Below is contact information to obtain
it,, however. Nutritional
balancing, as stated above, is not a treatment or cure for any disease, but
merely a way to balance body chemistry.
I feel it is important to explain how the Kelley program works.
The
program was designed by Dr. William Donald Kelley, DDS. Dr. Kelley was diagnosed with
pancreatic cancer in 1968. He was
given little hope of survival, and as a result, started reading about
alternative cancer therapies, experimenting on himself with various natural
therapies. He read about the
trophoblast theory of cancer, and began taking pancreatic enzymes. He soon felt better, and he began to
research deeper and share his discoveries. He continued to research and evolved a cancer protocol that
he continuously refined for 35 years.
Dr. Kelley died in 2009 from other causes (not cancer) at age 88.
He
wrote a small book entitled One Answer To
Cancer as a guide for patients.
He was an excellent doctor and trained a number of doctors and
consultants to continue his work.
The
Kelley program, as it is called, is based squarely on the trophoblast concept
of the origin of cancer, and its results appear to me to be superior to all
other natural or medical cancer therapies in most cases if it is done
correctly. It involves:
1.
An extremely healthful diet of purely natural foods
with little animal protein, at first, and containing mainly cooked, not raw
vegetables, with a little whole grains, and very little or no fruit or
sweets.
2.
Carrot and green juice, but only about 16 ounces, is also
extremely helpful. To read more
about this, read Carrot Juice on this website.
3.
Near infrared light sauna therapy, and no other type of sauna may be utilized. This was brought to Dr. KelleyÕs
attention by Mrs. Pamela McDougle, a brilliant student who is still practicing
today, and whom I recommend working with.
The sauna must be used a minimum of twice daily and perhaps three times
daily, for at least 30 minutes and up to 50 minutes each session. For details on this type of sauna and
free plans to build one, read Sauna Therapy on
this website.
4.
The use of coffee enemas every single day. Dr. Kelley recommended from one to
three of these daily. Dr. Max
Gerson, MD, who pioneered the use of the coffee enema, used even more, but this
seems unnecessary and time-consuming when one does the entire Kelley program
correctly. To read more on this
fascinating procedure, read Coffee Enemas on
this website.
5.Highly
concentrated pancreatic enzymes, taken orally, between meals, in large
quantities. These were suggested by John Beard, MD, over 100 years
ago. They act a natural chemotherapeutic
agent in a most remarkable manner that seems to allow the body to break down
tumor tissue, which is not easy to do when the body is in a debilitated state.
6.
Some basic supplements.
Here Dr. Kelley gives full credit to my mentor, Dr. Paul Eck. Dr. Eck introduced Dr. Kelley to the
work of Hans Selye, MD, George Watson, PhD, Melvin Page, DDS and others who
elaborated the distinct relationships between the sympathetic and
parasympathetic nervous systems, the stages of stress on an organism, the nutrients
required in each stage of stress, and how to move the body from a less
healthful and lower energy stage of stress to a higher energy stage of
stress. The importance of these
discoveries and their application in cancer and in all diseases cannot be overemphasized.
7.
A healthful lifestyle.
This means plenty of rest and sleep, excellent hygiene, and positive
mental attitude are most helpful for healing cancer and all diseases, in fact.
8.
Mental healing. Cancer patients are often discouraged, and angry
underneath. Some are too sweet and
loving, but underneath are resentful of others. Such negative emotions severely impact the emotional body,
the liver, and the sympathetic nervous system.
Therefore,
a key to healing all cancers is to give up anger, practice forgiveness daily,
look on the positive side of everyone, even your sworn enemies, as Jesus
taught, and move on. Let go of all
grudges and hatreds, and realize that all are doing their best, even through it
is far from perfect. A number of
articles on this website can help you, including the ones entitled I Choose, Meditation For
Healing (excellent), Forgiveness, Getting Along With Others, Letting Go, and others.
Drawbacks
of the Kelley program are:
1)
The cost of the pancreatic enzymes, which can be $800-1200.00 per month for at
least one or two years. If this is
a problem, then I recommend the use of Protocel or Cantron instead of the
enzymes. This may not be as good,
but often works well and is far less expensive.
2)
The program requires some discipline and time each day to carry out the various
dietary and other procedures. In other
words, a commitment of time and energy is required. I strongly suggest to anyone who is even concerned about a
possible cancer that letting go of your fast-paced life and taking the time to
heal is absolutely necessary and absolutely worth any other sacrifices that you
may need to make.
To
make contact for the Kelley metabolic cancer therapy
call Pamela McDougle at (208) 424-7600.
She is the official representative of this therapy and the only one I
recommend at this time. This is
important because many doctors offer versions of this therapy. However, most change the therapy and
this can be devastating. Cancer is
not a disease to play with or experiment with!!!
PROTOCEL AND CANTRON
A
second approach to healing cancer naturally is the use of a relatively
inexpensive, liquid remedy called Protocel or Cantron. While it is not a complete therapy like
the Kelley program, I will mention it because it is much less costly and it can
be combined with the sauna therapy, coffee enemas, diet and basic supplements
that will enhance its effectiveness greatly.
At
this time, Protocel is available via the internet. The cost is about $195.00 per month or so. A variant on Protocel is called
Cantron. It may not be quite as
strong, but reports indicates that it is helpful, and it is much less
expensive.
Origins
of Protocel. Protocel was
developed almost 50 years ago by Jim Sheridan, a chemist by training. Sheridan lived in the Detroit, Michigan
area. He originally called the
formula Entelev and later it was called Cancell. Protocel is the latest version of it. Cantron is very similar and seems to
work okay, too.
Jim
Sheridan worked closely with William Koch, MD. Koch was a brilliant doctor who, for a time, was the head of
the Detroit WomenÕs Hospital. Dr.
Koch was an amazing doctor and wrote a series of books that are mentioned at
the end of this article. His case
histories of cancer cures are unique in my experience. He, too, knew that most cancer is
trophoblast. He wrote an entire
book about what he called Òthe cancer parasiteÓ.
How
Protocel or Cantron Work. They appear to disable the energy-producing mechanism of the
trophoblast, and only the trophoblast.
This is an anaerobic, glucose-based metabolism that is subject to
disruption by this product.
In
contrast, pancreatic enzymes seem to disable the trophoblast by a different
mechanism having to do with catalase, hydrogen peroxide and cell destruction.
In
addition, Protocel has components in the liquid that help the body dispose of
the tumor. This is critical, as
Dr. Max Gerson and others found. One
of the most frustrating things about natural cancer therapy is that killing the
cancer may be relatively easy, but disposing of the necrotic tumor tissue,
which is highly toxic to the liver, is a serious problem that can kill the patient. Dr. Gerson used the coffee enemas,
liver therapy and carrot juice for this purpose. Protocel uses some proprietary secret formula of ingredients
that seems to do the same thing.
The Kelley program uses the enemas, the sauna and the enzymes for this
purpose. All must contend with
this problem or disposing of necrotic tissue, or the best therapy will not be
effective.
To
obtain Protocel: One source is at (330) 634-0008. This is in Ohio, USA, and the contact
person is Kimberly Cassidy. There
is another distributor of Protocel in S. Carolina.
To
obtain Cantron. Call
(888) 628-8667. Cantron is about
half the price of Protocel, but not quite as powerful, according to some
sources. However, it still works
well in many cases.
Do
not use these products alone, as they are not enough in some cases. Protocel
and Cantron are sold as stand-alone products. However, I would never use them this way. I would always combine them with a
nutritional balancing program, or at least with a very high-quality diet of
mainly cooked vegetables, little meat or eggs, no fruit or sugars, no wheat and
all organic food. I would also
always do coffee enemas and near infrared lamp sauna therapy with them –
always.
Detailed
information and cautions with Protocel and Cantron. Do not listen to anyone who suggests
that you must do a ÒcleanseÓ with these products first. This is false information. Also, you may eat any cooked vegetables
you like with them, including broccoli.
With
the product, you will also receive information about combining it with
supplements. I would not follow
this advice. However, do not
combine this product with more than:
1.
About 1000 mg of vitamin C daily.
2.
About 100 mcg. of selenium daily.
3.
About 100 mg of coenzyme-Q-10 daily.
4.
About 2400 mg of kelp daily (4 NatureÕs Way or Solaray kelp capsules daily).
5.
About 500 mg of omega-3 fatty acids daily (1 EPA/DHA 300/day).
6.
Perhaps no more than about 400 iu of natural vitamin E daily.
7.
Limit vitamin D to about 2000 iu daily (1 Endomet vitamin D/week).
8.
Do not take glandular products if one has cancer. This is just a precaution because some
cancers are fed by hormones, which may be present in the glandular tissues in
small amounts.
The
cautions above are important because higher than these doses will interfere
with killing the trophoblast or cancer parasite, as it is sometimes called.
When
you buy Protocel or Cantron, they include a list of these cautions, but the
list above is my recommendation and may differ from the recommendations from
the Protocel distributors.
Products
that appear to combine well with Protocel and may enhance it include zinc,
calcium, magnesium, vitamin A, germanium, 132, and the herbal remedy, paw
paw. I do not recommend any of these
products except zinc, calcium and magnesium. The others appear unnecessary and may be slightly toxic.
Protocel
with a nutritional balancing program.
To keep the amount of supplements low with Protocel, one should take a
maximum of 2 Megapan tablets daily, absolutely no thyroid, thymus or adrenal
glandular products, up to 4 kelp capsules daily, only 5000 iu of vitamin D per
week, only 300 mg of omega-3 fatty acids daily, and only 100 mcg of selenium
daily, possibly, since this is a lot.
Products such as GB-3 (the digestive aid) and Paramin (a
calcium/magnesium formula) do not interefere with Protocel and can be taken at
the regular dosage.
Combining
natural therapies with conventional allopathic cancer treatment. This is certainly possible. However, according to the experience of
most of the authorities I trust, conventional cancer treatment is so toxic and
harmful, it is very rarely helpful, and often kills the patient.
The
best conventional treatment is probably surgery, but only in cases in which 1)
the tumor is enormous and thus difficult to digest and remove naturally, or 2)
if the tumor is pressing on a vital structure such as an artery or a nerve and
must be removed to save oneÕs life.
As
explained above, chemotherapy treatments, radiation, most surgery, along with
IPT or insulin potentiation therapy, most herbal therapies, and others, are
much too toxic to use, in my view.
THE CANCER PIONEERS
William
Kelley, DDS and Jim Sheridan are just two of what I call the cancer
pioneers. They are a group of
brilliant scientists and clinicians that include such names as Dr. Max Gerson,
Dr. Ann Wigmore, Dr. Bernard Jensen, Dr. Andre Voisin and others. They, and their quite amazing work with
cancer, are the subject of a separate article on this website entitled The Cancer Pioneers.
PREVENTION IS FIRST, ALWAYS
Prevention
is the first key to success with cancer.
This is the one disease that is far easier to prevent than to cure in
most all cases. Here is why:
1.
It is a stealth illness in most cases.
That is, it has few symptoms at first and in the early stages.
2.
Dissolving tumors is not that easy for the human body, especially one with
impaired eliminative organs. This
greatly slows healing of cancer and causes many failures in natural and
conventional cancer therapies. The
bodyÕs detoxification system is just overwhelmed. This is one reason a simple product described below called
Protocel is helpful, in that it appears to assist the breakdown of tumors. It is also why coffee enemas are a
key. Skipping them with cancer is
just plain foolishness.
3.
Cancer is difficult to treat at best in older people, and these are the ones
who usually suffer with it.
4.
Caner treatment, especially conventional treatment, has been inflated terribly
due to insurance covering the cost, or most of it. However, handling cancer need not be that costly.
5.
Cancer is life-threatening and will take the life if one does not stop it. Thus, just slowing it down is better
than nothing, but is not enough, as it is with many other illnesses. Cancer must be stopped, as a general
rule, or life will end sooner, if not later.
For
all these reasons, prevention of cancer is of utmost importance. Let us discuss the three types of
prevention of cancer.
Primary
prevention. This
consists of eating correctly, cleanliness, and drinking pure water. It also consists of balancing the body
and keeping it balanced and as healthful as possible. This will delay, but not prevent most cancers.
Secondary
prevention is the use of tests and procedures that may be able to
detect very early cancers, long before they show up on any medical tests. These methods may include scans of
various kinds. It may also include
blood tests for cancer markers and hair testing as well for toxic metals,
nutrient deficiencies and other imbalanced ratios.
Tertiary
prevention includes any method to help mitigate cancer once it is
detected. Tertiary prevention in
medicine might include reducing the size of a tumor or clearing it from the
body with surgery or drugs, even if one knows that the cancer is still growing
elsewhere. Thus it is not the same
as treating the cancer, as they say.
Beware
of medical Òpreventive testingÓ.
Having said this, beware of invasive and dangerous methods of
ÒpreventionÓ, whether primary, secondary or tertiary prevention.
X-rays
of the breasts, for example, increase cancer incidence. Ultrasound or infrared thermal
diagnostics, by contrast, are much safer.
This is just one example of how prevention must be carefully thought
out.
However,
an excellent and simple blood and urine cancer screening panel is available
from American Metabolic Laboratories for anyone, even without a doctorÕs
prescription. See the references
for more information about this lab.
SAUNA
THERAPY AS PRIMARY, SECONDARY AND TERTIARY PREVENTION OF CANCER
The
use of a near infrared heat lamp sauna each day for half an hour or more
is a simple, cost-effective method of cancer prevention. A far infrared type could be used but
is not as good.
Near infrared sauna therapy helps
remove two dozen toxic metals, hundreds of toxic chemicals, and often a dozen
or more chronic infections in the body.
It also has many other therapeutic effects.
Saunas
do far more than just reduce the risk of cancer, and is not a specific cancer
therapy, unless combined with other products and procedures. Thus, it can also help prevent a dozen
other devastating illnesses, at least, and actually rejuvenates the body as it
does so. See the article entitled Sauna
Therapy for much more information about this rather amazing therapy.
If
one is serious about cancer prevention, include the use of a near infrared (or
a far infrared type if the near infrared is not available) as a primary
preventive therapy.
To
build a sauna is not difficult.
Free plans are on this website at Sauna Plans. Also, we offer a book, Sauna
Therapy, with more plans and we sell, at this time, an inexpensive but
excellent little one-person lamp sauna for under $600.00. This is also described on this website
on the page entitled Buy
A Sauna.
BLACK SALVE
A
fascinating natural herbal remedy for skin cancers, and perhaps for some
internal cancers as well, is called black
salve. I have heard that it is
an old Native American remedy containing bloodroot and other herbs. It is slightly irritating to the skin,
but can remove cancerous and pre-cancerous moles very easily, and very
inexpensively. It is available on
the internet and perhaps at some health food stores.
Note:
The AMA and other powerful groups do not like the competition from natural
cancer therapies. Doctors who
offer it are often harassed by federal agents and some lose their licenses for
helping people recover from a terminal disease.
Many
prominent politicians and others know about these therapies. Ronald Reagan and Betty Ford are just
two among many who went abroad for alternative cancer therapies and succeeded.
REASONS FOR FAILURE WITH NATURAL CANCER THERAPIES
I
will mention four factors that are common reasons for failure so that you can
avoid them. These include too much
stress, starting too late, the nature of cancer and the inability to follow the
program exactly.
1.
Stress. For success,
you must minimize all activity and stress in your life. You must rest at least 12 hours daily. Stress weakens and disturbs the body
severely. It can include
financial, social, work, family or other types of stressful conditions. To be successful, plan to rest most of
the day for at least a year or two.
This will conserve your energy for healing.
2.
Starting too late. I
am aware of people with extremely advanced cases of cancer that recovered fully
using natural therapies.
Therefore, it is never too late to begin natural therapy.
However,
there can be no foolproof ÒcureÓ for cancer. Anyone who offers you one is lying. The main reason is that cancer is a
stealth disease and you never know how extensive it is, no matter how many
x-rays or tests are run. Also, you
never know just how low your vitality level is, and vitality or adaptive energy
is required to recover from cancer, as with all diseases. It takes some time to turn around any
disease condition, and one never knows if one has that time. Finally, digesting and disposing of
dead tumors takes a lot of the bodyÕs energy and can be another problem, even
if the cancer can be stopped. Therefore,
if you suspect cancer, start your alternative program immediately.
4.
Failure to follow the program completely and faithfully. This is the most
common reason for failure. Here
are some reasons this can happen:
a)
Altering the program.
This is all too common.
Doctors or patients often just omit parts of the program, such as coffee
enemas. Others try combining
programs, often with disastrous results.
Others alter a few items, such as the diet, because they are afraid or
have read something that influences them.
A
hard and fast rule is to avoid changing or omitting anything that is required,
even if you donÕt understand it.
The Kelley program, as administered by Pamela McDougle – but not
anyone else - is the result of literally years of research. You are not likely to improve upon it. Dr. Kelley tried many remedies, and
rejected most of them for very good reasons that are not known to most
physicians and patients.
Nutritional
balancing programs are also the result of 40 years of research. Patients do not realize that we have
tried most, if not all of the remedies, methods and products available on the
market. So if it is not
recommended, stay away. If it is
recommended, use it, even if it makes little sense.
Holistic
physicians, often with little real experience with cancer, are among the worst
offenders here. They may attend a
seminar or workshop and suddenly feel they can do better than the masters. Adding extra products often wrecks a
program, and the reasons can be subtle.
Be very careful about this.
b)
Inability to do the program.
This may be due to financial issues, mental confusion or even a lack of
strength to carry out the instructions perfectly.
c)
Lack of adequate supervision.
This is also common. Always
consult your practitioner if you are not sure what to do in a situation. Too many people end up in an emergency
room, or stopping their program when this is not the correct solution to a
flare-up or other situation.
Doctors
who help people with cancer must be available for phone calls, at least, and
should supervise patients carefully.
Remember, cancer is not a simple illness in most cases.
In
fact, cancer is more like a climb up a steep slope where you cannot see the
goal clearly at first. There are
wrong turns and hazards to avoid, so use care in whom you choose as your guide,
and keep in close communication when necessary.
d)
Lack of commitment. Any natural approach takes
commitment. It will usually not be
easy sailing at all times and one must persist, even when it seems like things
are not going well. This occurs
during what are called healing reactions, for example. for more on this critical subject, read
Retracing And Healing Reactions on this website.
e)
Quitting too soon.
This is another common problem. Plan on staying on your therapy for several years, at
least. The diet and lifestyle
should be lifelong choices.
One
must stay with the natural therapy for at least a year after obvious tumors
have shrunk or one feels much better.
Otherwise, relapses can occur easily, since cancer is a degenerative
condition.
f)
Lack of emotional and moral support.
This, too, occurs often with alternative cancer approaches,
more than with any other illness I am aware of. Some people feel they must have the support of their
families, the media and the medical world. Otherwise they feel uncomfortable with their cancer
regimen.
Alternative
methods do not offer this. For
best success, one must be far more independent of the attitudes of others,
realizing that they are usually terribly uninformed and misinformed. Often they are also terrified of cancer
by the media and not thinking clearly about you and your real needs.
g) Lack of faith in the program. If you believe strongly in someone or
something, you will tend to relax, follow orders better, and have a better
attitude. If you think you are
wasting your time and money, no approach will be as effective.
For
this reason, watch out with whom you speak or share your condition, and your
plans. Thoughtless or stray words
from doctors and others can have a great influence on one who is ill.
If
you seek counseling or other help from a counselor, pastor, family or friends,
make sure they all understand your
natural healing program, and is fully supportive.
h)
Reduced will to live. Cancer
often causes a person to question the will to live. In fact, it is one of cancerÕs blessings. It forces a person to examine why he or
she wants to be well at all. This
is a challenge for those who have not examined their lives carefully, or who
have lived less than wholesome lives.
There are ways to enhance the will to live, such as reading spiritual
books, reading certain articles on this website that explain how life works,
and why life is precious, and others.
WHAT IF YOU ARE NOT SUCCEEDING?
If
the program you have chosen is not causing any changes within a few weeks, even
subtle ones described below, it may not be working. Fortunately, with the therapies in this article, this rarely
happens. Early changes may be
subtle and even have little to do with your tumor or cancer. They may be emotional improvements, for
example.
For
example, you may have more energy, feel happier or have less pain, even if the
tumor has not changed. In fact, do
not expect your tumor or even your general health to change quickly in many
cases. Only with the therapies
mentioned in this article and perhaps a few others, tumors often temporarily
grow larger for a while. Tests
such as x-rays and blood tests may also look worse, at times. This can be part of the process of
tumor necrosis or destruction of the cancer. So, be sure to work with someone who understands this.
Therefore,
do not just pay attention to x-rays or other medical tests, which often cannot
detect subtle changes inside tumors.
However, if there are no changes at all, even subtle ones, donÕt waste
your time on something that is not working. Stop what you are doing and change to a different
approach. The exception here is
that when a healing reaction or retracing is taking place, one must stick with
the program. This is difficult,
and this is where a professional who understands the program deeply will be of
great help. During all retracings,
oneÕs judgment is affected and everyone needs outside help to see their way
through.
Should
you spend a lot of time with conventional doctors while on a natural therapy
program? This is a
difficult decision, at times. The
general answer is it is up to you, but I would avoid the medical world as much
as possible. The reasons are:
1.
It is depressing and discouraging.
2.
Doctors are often afraid of cancer, and speak and gesture in a way that
unconsciously instills fear in you.
3.
Most doctors, including holistic doctors, are not well-informed about healing
reactions, the Kelley program, nutritional balancing science, etc. So they inadvertently wreck the
programs by suggesting other remedies, other diets, or other therapies.
4.
Sadly, the cancer establishment is horribly corrupt. This means the prices charged for visits, tests and
treatments are much too high, patients are often ÒrailroadedÓ into complying
with doctorÕs suggestions in various ways – even legal means, and it is
not a pleasant system to be involved with at all, for many patients. I am sorry to have to say this, but
based on personal and professional experience, it is often true.
HOW TO ENHANCE YOUR NATURAL THERAPY PROGRAM
Here
are a few keys to success that may not be emphasized enough by some books or
practitioners.
1.
Rest a lot more.
This is primary. Rest will
help any healing process. Go to
bed by 8:30 PM each night, nap each afternoon and try to get 10 to 12 hours of
sleep daily between these two. The
early hours of the evening are the best times for sleeping.
2.
Drink about three quarts of quality spring water each day. Steam-distilled water is also excellent
for detoxification. However, I use
it usually for only a few months, and then one must change to spring water
because too much distilled water will remove some vital minerals from the body.
The
next best water to drink is usually carbon filtered tap water. Be sure to change the filters every six
months or more often. Reverse
osmosis water is deadly and should be avoided. Alkaline water will provide positive benefits at first, but
for long term use they poison the body with platinum or other toxic metals, in
my experience, and should be strictly avoided. Also, avoid other Òdesigner watersÓ, as a general rule. Read Water For
Drinking for more on this subject.
3.
Perhaps do an extra coffee enema and/or an sauna session. These will not, in our experience,
interfere at all with Protocel or Cantron, and they are an important part of
the Kelley program. The use of a near infrared light sauna was added very late
in Dr. KelleyÕs life, so many practitioners do not know about its benefits.
Stay
away from far infrared saunas, especially those with large carbon heaters. I believe they are emitting frequencies
that may be harmful. Most saunas
can be converted to a near infrared sauna by just adding the heat lamps to it.
4.
Stay positive. The cancer cells themselves actually
secrete substances that may contribute to depression or discouragement. Purification reactions that are, in
fact, beneficial can also cause fear. At times, these can unnerve even the most stable and
dedicated person.
Research
by the Simontons and other doctors indicates that staying positive is critical
for the best success. Here are
several ways to do this:
a)
Read to understand all you can about your program. It can help you to have faith and confidence
in what you are doing and why.
b)
Do your best to concentrate on the positive and ignore the negative feelings. This
may seem impossible, but is a skill that can be learned. It involves letting go of the negative
because you realize it is just Òold tapesÓ playing over and over in your
head. After a while, they begin to
just fade away.
c)
Use methods that help you to stay positive. This might include uplifting books, CDs,
inspiring movies, or talking with positive friends. It may also be taking walks in the woods or a park,
meditating properly with the Roy Masters exercise, but not others, or any other
helpful and healthful activity.
The
article on my website entitled Reflections On The
Twenty-Third Psalm can also be helpful. This particular affirmation was and is very inspiring for
thousands throughout the ages.
d)
Think spiritually.
This means to know you are more than your physical body. This is what I mean by Òthink spirituallyÓ. It allows us to have a greater love for
the self and for the world as well.
Some ways to act spiritually are to go to church, or to read and study high-quality
spiritual material. Many opportunities
are all around you.
5.
Meditate in a special way.
I strongly advise all cancer patients to use the Roy Masters meditation
with my modification. It is
explained in the article Meditation For Healing,
where you can also download an audio version free of charge. I also offer the exercise
on a CD for $9.00 plus shipping.
The
exercise takes some time and patience to practice daily. However, it is excellent and very
grounding, an important factor for those with cancer. I credit my own health recovery in large measure to doing
this exercise daily, which I still do.
6.
Be realistic and grounded.
Always keep in touch with your practitioner. Healing cancer is not a do-it-yourself proposition at all. Not all reactions mean you are healing,
by any means.
For
several years I followed a Natural Hygiene regimen of mostly vegetarian raw
food. I developed rashes and other
symptoms that I believed were indicators of healing, and others around me agreed.
In
fact, I was becoming more ill. It
cost me dearly in terms of my health, and definitely contributed to cancer
later. A lady I was dating finally
convinced me to quit the regimen.
I had surrounded myself with others who thought like me, but the method simply
didnÕt work, in spite of my best efforts to follow the regimen faithfully.
This
is why I only recommend working with someone who has an excellent reputation
with cancer patients, not a general type of practitioner. Healing cancer with any approach is
challenging, even for a seasoned practitioner. For this reason, I do not work with cancer. It is just not my specialty and I
admire those who have made it theirs.
Unrealistic
thinking and approaches will get you killed with cancer. I know this warning may sound like it
is coming from the American Medical Association, but please be warned. Be open-minded but never rigid, if
possible. If you are not
succeeding, something has to change.
Do not stay with a program if it is obviously not working for you.
Finally,
remember that miracles occur with any method. This is always true, regardless of your method or approach. However, they are not common. So use your common sense at all times
when dealing with cancer.
HAIR ANALYSIS PATTERNS SEEN OFTEN WITH CANCER
Certain
metabolic patterns that are visible on a properly performed and properly
interpreted hair mineral analysis are more associated with cancer. Here are those that occur most often,
though there are others as well.
1. SYMPATHETIC DOMINANCE
Excessive
activity of the sympathetic nervous system inhibits healing in at least five
different ways. If this factor is
not dealt with, no therapy will be too effective. The tendency to overuse the
sympathetic nervous system, which we call sympathetic
dominance, is often unconscious.
This only makes it worse, because the person thinks he or she is just
living ÒnormallyÓ, but in fact the person is stuck in a trap or vicious cycle
of tissue breakdown or catabolism due to the overuse of the sympathetic nervous
system. I tell people it is as
though they believe they are being chased by a pack of tigers all the
time. This inhibits digestion,
elimination and the immune response severely, and slowly tears down the body.
On
a hair mineral test, it is indicated by a potassium level of 4 mg% or less, or
three or four highs pattern with a slightly elevated sodium/potassium
ratio. Secondary indicators are an
elevated sodium/potassium ratio by itself, and/or an elevated calcium/magnesium
ratio if the sodium/potassium ratio is high.
Pancreatic
enzymes and Protocel may actually help to correct this tendency, and this may
account for some of the feelings of fatigue that people with active cancer may
feel for a time on these products.
Coffee enemas and sauna therapy is also excellent to counteract
sympathetic dominance. Sympathetic
dominance is a very critical subject.
To read more, about it, read Sympathetic
Dominance.
2. FOUR LOWS PATTERN
This
pattern is also common, and consists of low tissue levels of calcium,
magnesium, sodium and potassium.
For more on this interesting pattern, read Four
Lows Pattern.
3. ELEVATED COPPER, CALCIUM AND/OR CADMIUM
A
copper level greater than about 10 mg%, a calcium level greater than 400 mg%, and/or
a cadmium level above about 0.03 mg%, are other possible cancer indicators on a
properly performed hair mineral analysis.
As these correct, the likelihood of cancer will decrease, in my
experience.
4. A SODIUM/POTASSIUM RATIO LESS THAN 2
Dr.
Paul Eck noted that on a properly performed hair mineral analysis in which the
hair is not washed at the laboratory that a sodium/potassium ratio less than
2.5 is associated with an impaired immune response. As the ratio becomes lower, the tendency for immune
deficiency and malignancy increases.
For more, read Low Sodium/Potassium
Ratio on this site.
5. PHOSPHORUS LESS THAN ABOUT 10 MG%
This
is a low vitality indicator. For
more information, read Phosphorus on this site.
6. OTHER TOXIC METALS OR SEVERE VITAL MINERAL DEFICIENCIES
High
levels of mercury, lead, arsenic, nickel or other toxic metals may be
associated with the development of cancer. Poor eliminator patterns
are also associated with cancer.
Very
low levels of zinc, for example, may also indicate a severely impaired immune
response. More research is needed
on the specifics of these indicators.
COMBINATIONS OF PATTERNS, PERSISTENT PATTERNS, AND HIDDEN
PATTERNS
If
more than one of the above patterns are present, it usually reinforces a
tendency for malignancy. Also, if
a pattern persists on several mineral analyses during a nutritional balancing
program, it is more likely a tendency for malignancy than if it just appears on
a single hair mineral analysis.
Some
patterns will also be hidden on early tests and the test may look quite good,
in fact. I call this a Compensated Hair Test. Subsequent tests will begin to look
more imbalanced as the deeper layers of metabolism are revealed.
