Targeted  Cancer Therapies

    Targeted therapies use drugs or other substances that specifically target cancer in ways that attempt to minimize harm to healthy cells. For instance, exploiting the metabolic characteristics of cancer using nutritional therapy is a targeted natural therapy. Using drugs that exploit certain genetic processes within a cancer cell is another from of targeted therapy.  Scientists are also working on gene-editing techniques that can reverse inherited genes that are flawed or…

Cancer Stem Cells

    Cancer stem cells are a special type of cell that every tumor produces. At some point after a tumor forms cancer stem cells and tumor cells their way into the lymph nodes and blood. Cancer stem cells can disguise themselves as normal cells, just like tumor cells can, allowing them to evade the body’s immune system. During chemo and radiation both cancer tumor and stem cells mutate into more drug and radiation resistant strains. Both types of cancer cells can become dormant and…

CAR-T-Cell Therapy 

    Instead of using dendritic cells, CAR-T-cell therapy is an immunotherapy that creates a vaccine out of a patient’s T cells. T cells are a special type of pathogen killing white blood cell. The FDA approved CAR-T-cell therapy in October 2017 for use with various blood related cancers. Many hope this therapy will be effective in treating blood related cancers in children.

    CAR-T-cell therapy genetically modifies a receptor on a T-cell that will allow it to recognize and attach to…

Dendritic Cell Therapy

    One of the most promising immunotherapies is Dendritic Cell Therapy (DCT), which found its way to the United States from Germany over two decades ago. DCT has proven to be very safe and effective in many contexts, but unfortunately the United States has been very slow in fully adapting it. One might ask, why? I am not entirely sure why, but suspect that part of the reason is that DCT is not a copyrightable pharmacological solution.

    Dendritic cells are specialized white blood…

Epigenetic Therapy

     Epigenetics is the science of how differences or aberrations in cells can turn genes on or off. For example, if inherited genes, viruses, toxins or chemo and radiation disrupt normal gene processes, genes can malfunction and promote cancer, heart conditions, mental illness, diabetes and other degenerative diseases.  The premise of the healing approach in epigenetics is to discover what conditions caused the cancer in the first place, and then to reverse or restore these conditions…

Alternative Cancer Treatment Centers

    All of the treatment centers I listed are cash only and can cost as much as 4,000 to 8,000 dollars per week, depending on the type of treatment offered. I studied their websites and interviewed each center as part of the screening process. A number of centers did not make my final list, even though I researched over 30 facilities offering some form of alternative or integrative cancer therapy. That is not to say that other credible alternative treatment centers in…

SELENIUM AND CANCER

 

Selenium is a trace mineral and a powerful antioxidant, providing key support to the immune system in preventing and fighting numerous diseases. It has many other important functions in the body, such as protecting DNA from being damaged. In particular, Selenium plays its most important role as a crucial element of the powerful antioxidant, Glutathione. which will be covered in a future article.

Selenium stimulates white blood cells and the thymus, which is a lymphoid organ located…

Melatonin is an often-overlooked supplement that can be taken by cancer patients to mitigate the negative effects of chemo and radiation therapy, and simultaneously act as a powerful anticancer agent. It also has the added benefit of acting as a potent sleep aid.

Some of the most common side effects in higher doses, are headaches, dizziness, and sleepiness if taken during the day. It might also interact with other medications, so keep your doctor informed and start with a small dose and work your way up.¹…

There is growing evidence suggesting that MCP has powerful cancer fighting mechanisms. In one study, researchers concluded that MCP inhibits cancer cells from combining to form tumors in areas of the body outside the primary tumor, causing cancer cells to commit cell suicide.¹ MCP demonstrates characteristics that may even prevent cancer cells from forming into a tumor in the first place.

Additionally, “MCP has been shown to be effective against prostate carcinoma, colon carcinoma, breast carcinoma…
