Now no doubt in some cases it pays to be skeptical.
BUT - for instance, a very good friend of mine passed from colon cancer about a year ago. Both he and I spent alot of time doing internet research on it.
He ended up going with the standard chemotherapy and radiation.
It bought him some time, but was not a “cure” in any sense.
And AT THE SAME TIME he was slowly passing I FOUND REFERENCES IN PUBMED TO THERAPIES THAT WERE 80% EFFECTIVE AGAINST COLON CANCER!!!
I’m not making this up and I could point you at the studies.
So, once again, WHY if such info is available on Pubmed, then WHY is it not more widely known? At least TRIED?
BTW, for all, here is an interesting video about the Baking Soda connection including an interview with a lovely Italian woman WHO CURED HERSELF OF OVARIAN CANCER!!

Colon cancer is what my father had, too, but he was denied chemo because he was too weak following a surgery-gone-wrong. Because he was being denied the mainstream treatment, we desperately searched out every alternative option we could find.
I found all sorts of claims on the internet, and I checked into each one. I even called and spoke with the people administering those alternative treatments. Most of the claims just didn’t pan out. However, I did make an appointment for intravenous Vitamin C, though they couldn’t see him for months. (It was too late.) Now I realize we might’ve been able to convince the hospital to try IVC.
Anyway, the above is why I’m skeptical of claims made by alternative medicine. I’ll watch the video you posted, though.
