It is apparently not in the top 10, but the poinsettia is also poisonous to both dogs and cats.

There are many, many substances which are toxic to humans if taken in high doses.

However, there are some items which are NON-TOXIC to humans at low levels, but at these same low levels are toxic to cancer cells!!

The oleander plant is one of these items.

In addition to its low level toxicity, oleander also helps treat cancer in these ways:

Tremendous immune boosting ability (six times that of the strongest patented immune stimulators)
Inhibition of angiogenesis
Inhibition of the NF-kB factor in cancer cells
Induction of apoptosis, or normal cell death, in cancer cells, and
Induction and enhancement of autophagic cancer cell death (which was tested against pancreatic cancer cells)

There are two ways to take this oleander treatment for cancer.

The highly preferred way is to take it as a capsule or extract. These two versions have already been mixed to be at a safe level for humans, but are at a toxic level for cancer cells or AIDS virus. Many people have used these products for both cancer and AIDS, so the dose and safety is very well established.

The product, Sutherlandia OPC, has tested out to be even better than the older formulations. It continues to be more than 90% effective against a broad range of cancers, including late stages, and is 100% effective in reversing HIV.

I’ve gotten rid of most of the ones around my house. They’re difficult to kill once established.

Actually they're not. Live traps and .22 cal have been very effective...........

Whoa! Now that is something to know! Thanks! I had only heard that it was lethal, but I guess like anything else that grows in nature, there is a benefit for someone or something in even the worst of plants.

That is some impressive information!

There was a case of a fatal poisoning on our local beach. Someone used an oleander branch to spear a hotdog for roasting over a campfire.

Natural often trumps what the drug companies and doctors do. It doesn’t cost so much, and that is why it is verbotin among the alliopathic set. It also is effective, or it would not be used. Can’t say that for the drug company chemo solutions.

My body doesn’t respond to synthetic chemicals.

I have CFIDS (go to cfids.org for more info) and what is a “normal” dose for one person can be an overdose for me, have no effect whatsoever, or have such major side-effects that the cure is literally worse than the disease.

I have heard that heat can kill the cancer cells, but I have also heard that chemo causes cancer. So any way you look at it, I won’t be having chemo if I contract cancer. I’ll take my chances with natural remedies.
