Simple answer to cancer?
02/11/10 | djf

Posted on 02/12/2010 9:02:11 PM PST by djf

Could it be that simple???

Last evening, Coast to Coast AM had a very interesting guest on. A Doctor (MD type doctor, not a person with a doctorate in basket weaving).

He talked about some things that had been detected in the body, energy states, cell membranes, that sort of thing. Sounded a little kooky in places, but overall, he knows what science is, and the basics of biochemistry, I've read enough abstracts and reviews to know that.

He made - what was to me - a fantastic and startling claim. That most, if not all cancers, are actually the result of a weakened immune system trying to fight off an infection by the common yeast Candida Albicans.

The second part of the claim, which was even more crackpot than the first, was that these infections (and the underlying cancer) can be cured by a simple household cleaning agect. Good ole baking soda, sodium bicarbonate!!

Now - just for the record - I said, "Yeah, nutjob, looney tunes, musta drank too much crankase oil last night." And it is Coast to Coast, which is only slightly more credible than publications featuring Bat Boy.

So I started doing a bit of net research last night. And continued with more today.

And - ANd- AND - I know everyone has bated breath right now.... There are literally THOUSANDS of testimonials on the net of people who have either under doctors (some doctors, in fact damn few doctors, because to subscribe to such a theory is almost an immediate guarantee of having their credentials ripped out from under them) therapy, or even by themselves individually, have cured their cancer with baking soda. Cancer of all types. Lung cancer, colon cancer, ovarian cancer, even some of the deadlier and fast acting brain cancers.

Now I'm posting this for discussion purposes only and no claims are being made or therapies recommended.

But I cannot see what would be the purpose of anybody (patients or doctors) to lie about being cured. And in case after case, we can see the radiologic reports of people with lethal cancers who have been told to go home and die, only turn return and be re-scanned six months later without even so much as a planters wart showing up in the scans!!

So....

WAZZUP, ya think? Any FReeper experiences?

The “calcium man” says cancers thrive in a high Ph (acid) and the calcium will help keep the Ph base.

Under that principle I guess baking soda may do the same.

I’m no expert, either.

From what I heard before I fell asleep, I have to agree with you. I was impressed with Dr. Apsley.

Not a chance! George has problems connect dots ‘in a logical’ manner, and often times fails to ask meaningful followup questions. IMHO
By the way, Dr. John Apsley also talked about the economic implications of a cheap, effective cancer prevention regime.

"I’m rather fond of baking soda. I put a 1/4 teaspoon in a couple of tablespoons of natural apple cider vinegar (to neutralize the acidity)...mixed with a bit of water (about a 1/2 cup...every day. Oh, and I top it off with a pinch of cayenne pepper. Just swig it down and it’ll give you health and energy benefits.

Baking soda is good for what ails ya. Good for brushin’ your teeth too."

Now, there's a man after me own heart, as my sweet little gray haired momma used to say. I have used baking soda for various tasks for many years. It's wonderful stuff. So's Bragg's. :o)

So what do you do?

If you have Lung Cancer, should you inhale a box of Baking Soda? I won’t ask about how to treat colon cancer with it. lol

Hmmmm.......
If memory serves there was a "Dr" several years ago who was hawking the benefits of Hydrogen Peroxide as a "cure all" and especially a cancer sure.
Just drink a teaspoon or two everyday and it would cure your ills.
I don't recall his name though.

Have you ever cleaned your bath drains with vinegar and baking soda.......it’s like doing a fun science experiment!

Thanks.
I noticed that he danced around saying ‘xyz’ is a cancer cure, knowing that he would be open to Mucho Attacks, both legal and professional.

there is a HUGE industry testing for and treating cancer. And like all large industries, they have a vested interest in continuing with the status quo.

That is very true, and we shouldn't be afraid to challenge or to question the status quo. But, we also shouldn't be afraid to question the market for "alternative medicine" or "holistic healthcare", either.

I remember searching in desperation for a cure when my late father was ill. I came across many claims of "cures" that were made, but there was no real evidence to support them.

I can’t believe you think drug companies are holding back a cure for cancer. Which drug companies would those be? Do you have any proof? Do you have any idea how many good, very smart Americans are working to find the causes of and cures for cancer? And why would drug companies do that, when whoever comes up with a cure for cancer will make ba-zillions? Even if cancer were cured, there are a few other diseases and conditions needing treatment that would allow the crooked drug and biotech companies to continue to rake in their ill-gotten gains.

I tried making bombs with plastic bottles like that when I was a teen. The reaction was always too fast, and it would make a mess, so I moved onto gun powder, fuse, & PVC. lol

I have heard that too. In fact, isn't that what Suzanne Somers believes? I think she cured her breast cancer using alternative methods.
The theory is that cancer cannot survive in a alkaline body. The whole point is to change your body from acidic to alkaline. It is a lot more than taking baking soda. You have to eat and drink everything to make you alkaline.

“Add a little bit of honey.”

Ah, I should have mentioned that. Sometimes I do. Honey is good medicine too.

Cancer treatment is probably $100Billion+ per year industry, not limited to drug companies.

Your gray haired momma was a wise woman. I’ve never met someone who knew about Bragg’s before...well, not until I told them about it. It’s the best natural apple cider vinegar, in my opinion, but I have to drive to Fairbanks or Anchorage to get it. Fred Meyer’s has it in the natural food section.

I recently heard a radio interview with a guy named Rick Simpson from Canada who claims that hemp oil is a cure all.

The guy’s website is http://www.phoenixtears.ca/

Might be worth checking into. I’ve never heard of this until yesterday. And, no, I am not a pot head. I’ve taken illicit drugs and I don’t advocate or condone it.
