Great article! 10 years ago celebrities used to die from overdoses of illegal drugs like heroin and cocaine, now we are losing really great people from overdoses of legal pharmaceutical drugs!!! Heath Ledger included.

I fully agree, and cannot believe after watching the food matters DVD you guys gave me how much of this is mearly swept under the carpet by the national press, the medical industry etc;
But I have myself had a close friends daughter diagnosed with cancer at only 8 years old! I told them about your site and also showed them your dvd, GUESS WHAT?
she is now on a programme of chemo... it is such a waste...they just believe everything the doctors tell them.

Right on guys and girls. Why we all can't wake up and see the light. But you know they're so clever, the way they do this to us all. You've got to be clever yourself to beat their system.

We should not forget that everybody has his or her right to choose whether it is chemo or something natural. There is enough information accessible. On the other hand it is good to see that more and more resistance is upcoming against the current views of 'curing'. Keep up the good work.

Totally agree with this article and it never ceases to amaze me that people get "brainwashed" by the big pharma and doctors etc into using this stuff. Yet if you try to suggest that the natural way actually can work - you're some kinda "cookie" type trying to do the brainwashing!
Keep up the good work folks - your movie is tops!

Now that many people are getting comfortable with the idea that government institutions are indeed not looking out for our best interests (trying to make sure we do not live our best lives) wait until people find out why the government is placing such great efforts into trying to fill us full of disease. Search "eugenics" because there is just not many other logical explanations to why so great lengths are gone to in order to poison an entire population at every turn.

I too totally agree with this article and am heartened to know that others out there feel this way. What I discovered about the Cancer Industry and drug companies while researching for my friend a couple of years ago, horrified and appalled me. And I am still amazed at others who prefer to remain brainwashed than take responsibility for themselves - recently friends and colleagues ran a for Cancer research and were confused and disbelieving when I explained why I wouldnt be joining them - actually they didnt want to hear or know what I had to say

Agree 100%! Both were amazing talents and seemed to be brainwashed by doctors and big pharma rhetoric. I watched Farrah's film on network TV and wondered why she never took a natural healing route to health?

I couldn't agree more, the natural way just raises your awareness to all the other possibilities. Unfortunately if you do not really value your health, and have a model of the world that Drs are semi-gods you give your power away.

I think I remember reading that Farrah Fawcett had gone to Germany for complementary therapy and it was reported that it made her worse or did not help and so then she choose chemotherapy.
Most people are more suspicious of herbs than toxic chemicals used in chemotherapy - just because the doctor prescribes them. After all, you can treat yourselve with herbs to some extent.

Don't forget, ultimately, it was still her choice to take the drugs. We all have a brain and its our God given right to make our own choices here.

I cant believe you are capitalising on the death of Michael and Farrah to push your agenda. Having watched my mother die slowely and painfully of cancer, I could care less about natural remedies and potions, had it not been too late, drugs or whatever would have been given. The natural message is a good one and I support it but dont do this kind of thing. It is cheap.

I thought that this article was great. I have noticed a huge change in my life since I have started to use vitimans.
I would like to add that my mother and I are both psychologists and we see people every day that have psychosis because of marijuana use. This drug may seem "mild" but it has put many people into the psyc ward that are currently untreatable.

You're doing a great job, to counter the medical and pharmaceutical industries' propaganda.

I too feel sad that at a sensitive time such an article would be written...I think Napolean Hill would call it tactfulness...

And yet so many Americans are "hoping" to get their up and coming "flu shot", religiously take false "HIV" drugs, drink poisoned tap water and believe the government is trying to "save" them..... wow

While i agree with your article i totally disagree with the comment that marijuana is a mild drug. I know of many peoples lives who have been destroyed because of marijuana both mentally and physically. It is a VERY soul destroying drug; I am so sick of reading that this is a mild drug when it is not, shame on you!

I am concerned that you make such sweeping statements but don't say how or what sort of natural remedies or even what kind of programme for natural healing you would use. Most people know so little about natural remdies and don't know where to start or how to apply the sort of natural remedy way. I worked in a health shop for 3 1/2 years and went to all the training provided and was like a sponge but at the end of the day I'm not sure I would know or even have the confidence to take that path even though I agree it is the better way. I would be devastated not to be able to follow the natural way but where do you start, who do you go to and would I have the money to pursue it anyway?

Thank you for bringing into the light of day the untold/avoided story behind these two well-publicized deaths. And, before we judge too harshly, consider watching Farrah's Story, the film FF made about her cancer journey. Although she underwent conventional treatments, Farrah also did more by seeking alternatives in Germany, which at the least bought her some more time. As for MJ, his whole life was steeped in tragic undertones for which we can't just blame big Pharma. As an intelligent adult with access to all the resources and information in the world, Michael could have chosen to seek treatment for his addictions/issues and to embrace health. Lord knows he could afford a Vita-Mix! May both of these two celebrity icons rest in peace.

Tragic and true. Thank you for having the courage to speak out. The truth shall set us free.

During Farah's fight, I was wondering if she had sought out any natural treatement since she was so determined to beat Cancer. I also wondered where the "Food Matters" people were; since here battle was so public and her determination so strong, why not approach her and tell her about the options she had to heal naturally. I am turned off by this article in that it seems to exploit their deaths, especially Farahs -- especially if she was not educated on any other options. She wanted to live so badly -- she would have listened and tried anything, it seemed. I want the world to know that there are other options, I want this all to be true and I never want to hear of another friend, loved one or friend of a friend dying too young of something so evil and prevelent as Cancer.

I agree that the pharmaceutical industry is strictly big-business. HOWEVER, while we all should do whatever it takes to protect our health, natural healing does NOT always work. We tried it with my husband's cancer and he is now on conventional treatment in addition to natural immune boosters and diet. To suggest that we should not try other options because they are offered by the big Pharm is shameful. This article makes people who are trying to survive feel bad about themselves. This does not promote your cause. It only comes off as ranting.

We have to get away from the mindset of treatment and remedies. We need to promote health and wellness by natural means and lifestyle. Symptoms are the bodys' way of reacting to stress (physical, chemical, emotional). Function is the key, if the body is not functioning at its optimum it is not working right.
Drugs treat the symptom not the cause... the body is not functioning right.

Great article - thank you!! I was diagnosed with breast cancer last year and decided to treat myself with all natural remedies - now I am perfectly healthy and have a strong immune system. Breast thermography proved that the tumor is gone! I am now helping other women coaching and guiding them to natural remedies.

Bravo Mike Adams for telling it like it is.

I too am a breast cancer survivor (2 yrs.), but I refused chemo & radiation. I've been an R.N. for 31 years, & I've seen the toxic ravages & destruction of chemo and radiation for many years. There are many times I thought, "there HAS to be a better way!" For the last 11 years, I've been researching natural remedies from natural hormone management to now cancer.
What floors me is the total lack of interest by most friends and family, in where I went for treatment & what I have done to build my immunity and give my body what it needs to stay healthy. Wouldn't you think that if someone you knew fought cancer naturally you'd surely want to know the details?? I have even posted to survivor's blogs, but there is no interest from any of them. I don't fit in because I haven't been poisoned or burned. And don't get me started on insurance coverage. I HAVE insurance that will only cover chemo, radiation, poison tamoxifen or femara..., but nothing "natural"! Hmmm, who does that benefit?? So my insurance is basically useless for me. They would rather pay hundreds of thousands of dollars for toxins.
I occasionally have people with a recent cancer diagnosis call me, but then think it is "easier" to just go along with the Dr's plan, after all, he really does care. One person even said "well, there have been so many advancements in cancer treatment & I am confident in going through what my Dr prescribes." Advancements?? I asked her what they were, and she wouldn't answer me!
I finally found someone that feels the same way I do...Mike Adams; It is not inspiring to me either to see someone fight their cancer by poisoning themselves with toxic chemicals. Sorry.
There are lots of good ways to prevent or manage cancer. I'd be happy to share what I've learned, and do this through my web site all the time. My contact info is there also.
It does take work and discipline to eat well and take supplements, and many people just don't care or have it in them to try.
We all need to be aware and pass on good information when we learn about it. Now is the time.

I watched Farrah's story also. She did go to Germany for 'alternative' treatments. Thinking she was going to try nutrition and some herbs, etc, I was excited. But then it turned out that the 'alternative' treatments were just another form of chemotherapy. It was supposedly a more focused chemotherapy, but still chemotherapy. I believe she did poison herself to death. But I do feel for her because she truly believed that was the way to go and she thought it would work. Sad.

I went to a new dentist the other day, and in the large area in which I was to list my "medications" I wrote "NONE." I take Vitamin C, D, a B complex, an Omega 3s and eat a mostly organic, gluten-free diet (it takes me about an hour and a half to make our dinner every evening - I know most people do not have that luxury in these hectic times). I worry that some type of "national health care" will only increase the number of people on dangerous psych drugs and toxic "treatments." I'm sick of the drug ads in the media (New Zealand and the U.S. are the only countries which allow this). When I read these comments about people not wanting to know an opinion that differs from their doctors' "professional" opinion, I know exactly what they're talking about -- people fail to understand that our doctors are not trained in even the basics of nutrition, but are trained to prescribe drugs...the most obvious sign is the new Pfizer Lecture Hall at Harvard.

I believe most people would far rather go to the doctor for a "magic" pill to cure whatever ails them than to be responsible for their own health. Why on earth would anyone want to eat raw fresh fruits and vegies when there is so much addictive manufactured "food" that is sooo easy to indulge in. They make it to eat so it must be good for you, right? And don't get me started on TV and the media we have not had TV since the early 80's in those days I thought MTV was bad I can only imagine what kind of brainwashing trash they have on there now. I am so sick of the media glorifying MJ the only reason he was never convicted as a pervert is because he had enough bucks to buy his way out. Oh yes money has become god in the U.S.

I agree with your thoughts on Farrah Chemo is poision and would not be my choice if i was in her situation, but to compare intentional drug abuse with a desperate attempt to live i see no similarity. I loved Michael but he really was very screwed up person most likely from childhood abuse. Now his death has given people permission to forget the fact he was a child molester and a drug addict.

Stimulating the immune system through homeopathy is another alternative that works. There are doctors of homeopathy in India curing people of cancer and have been doing so for a long time. Yes, it works. Go to a homeopath with any problem -- preferably before you are so seriously run down and chronically ill that it's difficult for any modality to bring you back to health -- and you will be able to lead not only a healthy life but an emotionally and mentally happy one as well because it's not your liver that's diseased; your whole being is affected.

The Drug co's. are so greedy for more money they now are advertisy so many more drugs even before they have done much reseach or no reseach on any side effects or any long term results. I am angry at the greed.

Do you have to have any accurate medical information in these posts? Farrah's chemotherapy didn't cause liver cancer. In fact, she didn't have liver cancer no did she die from it. She had anal cancer that spread to her liver. Most cancers kill because they spread to other vital organs. There's nothing inherently deadly about cancer infecting your anus, but when it spreads to other places such as liver, brain, or lungs, that's how it kills you. This is the same for every other non-blood based cancers. So, since she didn't have liver cancer, it seems unlikely that chemotherapy caused it.

As for all the natural cures, I truly wish these were effective. If you are so confident, and there are so many supporters, how about pulling together and funding a single, small clinical trial that gives even a hint that a natural "treatment" is even close in efficacy to standard treatments versus chemotherapy. Wouldn't everyone in the world (yeah, yeah, not pharma companies) be in support of that?

Oh right, you won't do a trial because you know there's not a single shred of evidence that possibly suggests this is possible and when it comes down to it, no one is going to agree to be randomized to a "healthy diet" treatment arm when there are proven treatments in the other arm. Everyone is anti-pharma until they need it.

Fawcett fought a long, hard battle with cancer and and having an "I told you so" attitude without ever telling her so is wrong and ill-timed after her death. Anybody who battles cancer for several years (even if they do so in ways that you do not approve of Mike Adams) is a true fighter especially when they fought so hard and for so long and inspired millions of people while doing it. Her story inspired me. May she rest in peace.

Whilst a massive supporter of non-toxic approaches to cancer (I run an organisation dedicated to helping people access them in the UK) and a great fan of Food Matters, I find this article far too speculative and sensationalist. Only in a very few rare cases can anyone say with any real degree of certainty that they can cure a particular cancer - that's with orthodox or alternative methods - so to make out that a non-toxic approach would have led to a cure for Farrah Fawcett is simply ridiculous and very misleading. This is not the standard of journalism I associate with FM and I feel it does them no credit. The only thing you can be pretty certain about is that her quality of life would have been way better. Although there is no doubt that the forces that shape modern medicine often have frighteningly little to do with the wellbeing of patients, orthodox methods are helping some people, especially when they have intelligence to take an integrated approach - offsetting the negatives of chemo and radiotherapy, as well as doing everything they can to help themselves. It's easy to take sides in this, as in most arenas, but when it's a matter of life or death, people need to know where their best chances lie - not some simplistic picture of good and bad. Alternative medicine has been tarred with this brush for too long - let's not make the same mistake about orthodox methods.

Independent of Jackson's and Fawcett's transitions the truth remains that BIG PHARM is the all-time record industry money maker; more than petroleum, more than armament, more than illegal drug sales. BIG PHARM spend's more money in Washington DC on lobbys than any other industry. BIG PHARM controls the Allopathic medical education from the first day that the med student enters. MD's are taught to diagnos and prescribe and/or perform surgical proceedures. What they are Never taught is to look for the CAUSE of disease.

To the person who is pro pharma and wrote 'Everyone is anti-pharma until they need it' RUBBISH! I certainly should be able to rely on orthodox treatment to cure me from my very aggressive advance cancer (liver, lungs, lymphatic system, bones and spine) but I can't. oncologists gave me six months if i didn't use chemo and only 1.5 years even if i did. I chose not to and to do natural therapies. my oncologist basically ridiculed me and was incredibly negative telling me i should go on chemo even after i got my second lot of scans which proved that the tumors had significantly reduced. He made all sorts of excuses saying that they had probably been measured wrong (just one of many negative comments), he said it could come back aggressively at any moment and I should go on chemo. he was not a happy chappy when i refused. last month i had more scans, which once again show that my tumors have significantly reduced in size. This time he did not ridicule me, he did not tell me i should go on chemo, in fact he was quite subdued! PLEASE CONSIDER NATURAL THERAPIES IF YOU, A FAMILY MEMBER OR A FRIEND DO HAVE CANCER. IT COULD VERY WELL SAVE YOUR LIFE! However, I also agree with the other comment by Robin Daly. Let's not over sell. I don't think there is a miracle cure, I'm using a combination of a lot of things - nutrition, mind, energy etc. What is exactly working who knows it's a bit like a famous advertising exec who once said 'I know 50% of my advertising is working, I just don't know which 50%'. I SAY WHO CARES AS LONG AS IT'S WORKING.

Great article I fully agree with everything you said. I do not agree with some of the things some of the readers have posted though, mainly this comment.......
'I loved Michael but he really was very screwed up person most likely from childhood abuse. Now his death has given people permission to forget the fact he was a child molester and a drug addict.'
His death has not given people 'permission to forget' anything..he was never found guilty of child molestation and if you would like to do some of your own research rather than read and listen to sound bites given out by the tabloid press you will find out he was no more a child molester than you or I. May he rest in peace finally.

carmen I believe to that the mind is an important factor.
The German Spiegel wrote a story about placebo and no-placebo effects.
For sure the same importance as nutritions

oh and another comment I don't agree with is from the person who disagrees with Mike's comment that Marijuana is a mild drug....for the majority of users it IS most definitely a mild drug, a very small minority of people develop long standing pyschological problems from it....I have no idea where you got the idea it leaves people with physical problems...the facts are Marijuana is a mild drug, of course it's best for everyone to stay away from all drugs including alcohol but overall out of all the drugs available to mankind legal and illegal, marijuana is the mildest and causes less problems (especially for society) than any other drug.

I find it very sad and nearly overwhelming to know what you're saying is, I believe, true. Our government, the pharmaceutical industry and conventional medicine are either grossly misled and uneducated or arrogant beyond belief in their choosing to deny the fundamental and critical importance of understanding and utilizing holistic nutrition first in treating any disorder. But in the end it is each of our's responsibility to take care of ourselves. Believing doctors, the FDA or the experts in pharmaceuticals are looking out for your health or know better than you what your body needs is the first step down a dangerous path.

If Michael was indeed addicted to Demoral it was beyond his ability to control. That is the nature of addiction. The world has lost many talented, inspiring and gentle souls to addictions of al sorts. My brother being one, Michael Jackson and many other Hollywood celebrities are only a few of the casualties. They have followed a heartbreaking path that robs them and us of their life. It is criminal.

Like Mrs. Miniver, I, too, am a cancer survivor. I deeply understand that the fundamental key to health is an uncompromised immune system. That is what Nature intended. So, four years ago, when I was diagnosed with a potentially fatal form of cancer (which could be traced back to my family's genetic predisposition and unfortunate exposure as a child), I chose NO chemotherapy, NO radiation and NO drugs. I had a simple surgery to excise the tumor and, with my homeopath's guidance, attained cancer-free status in four months. Of course, I had already been a lifetime non-smoker, organic eater for 42 years, vegetarian for 26 years, vegan for eight, no alcohol or drugs for five and regular meditator, excerciser and martial arts practitioner. Healthy lifestyle = healthy life!

I agree with Food Matters for the most part, and maintain a healthy lifestyle simply for the improved quality of living. But let's be honest and realistic... some people get cancer and are cured and stay in remission after chemo... other people get cancer and are cured and stay in remission using homeopathic and natural treatments. Other people get cancer and die after chemo... and still others get cancer and die after using natural treatments. Why some people can survive cancer while others cannot (regardless of the treatment method) will probably always remain a mystery. Let's just let those who have passed before us rest in peace.

It's very interesting to read all the differing opinions. But my research into Marijuana says that it is NOT a mild drug. It is FAT SOLUABLE and is therefore stored in the fatty tissues of the body, and the fattiest tissues are the brain and the reproductive organs. Alcohol and Heroin is water soluable so not stored in the body and passes out of the body. A drug that is fat soluable stays in the body and the body adapts to it and therefore needs more of it to get a buzz so most users go on to harder drugs as they are eventually cheaper than more and more marijuana with little effect because the body has adapted to it. Don't be deceived and get the full facts. Marijuana is creating a genetic defect in human beings. More cancer !!!

Sandra sorry but you really do know nothing about marijuana.
I smoke it for 15 years and never ever used any other drugs except coffee and sugar.
I even stopt drinking any alcohol for 9 years.
It is a very little minority that can't handle the softdrug Marijuana.
And that are the same poeple that have mental problems before they start smoking pot.
As we know marijuana make's stronger all feelings we already have in our body.
So when you already have some mental problems than it is wise not to use pot.
For healthy poeple there is no reason to avoid pot except for the danger for your lungs.
But to avoid that you can use a vaporizer.

As a very Healty feeling person I know that reducing stress is one of the most important things to stay strong and Healthy.
Marijuana can help poeple who us it in moderation to fight the daily stress by finishing the day with some thc.
A world without thc had never bring us the unic artists in music and painting.
Better think about this before you blindly following the stupid war on drugs that the USA want to push on every world citisen.

Pretty insightful..what is really amazing is that doctors, who are only 'repeaters' of the big pharma companies downloads, cannot memorize the simple fact that high doses of demerol can be lethal? Or that a mixture of certain drugs can bring on a heart attack? Do they need to be rocket scientists to understand that or are they just as indifferent and callous as the pharma industry is? I hate to say this but we need to awake from this disgusting and scary nightmare and question everything that we put into our mouths.

We need to open our minds about alternatives, or natural products. I am a Wellness Consultant, and most people I talk with are brain- washed by our so-called health care people. Let's face it, we see a doctor when we are, "sick," so, we have sick care, not health care!

Most doctors were not taught about vitamins, only about drugs and surgery. They treat our symptoms rather than digging deep to find the real culprit.

Thanks to Food Matters for their information.

Really to write an article of this nature you really should back it up with proof not just your opinion. I have a friend who was given a death sentence for her cancer and there was one more option left and that was a 6 month treatment of chemo and she went through it being sick for a week after every treatment then having a week of feeling normal. After the 6months she has being given the all clear from her doctors. So at the end of the day its the person's choice.

This is bull. Everyone knows Fawcett went abroad to seek alternative therapies including places like Germany. Steve McQueen went to unprecedented lengths with his alternative therapies and he's still dead. Stop perpetrating. If you or anyone else had the "cure" for cancer you'd be multi-billionaires or at least world famous.

Your conclusions about Jackson are a little premature, aren't they? Especially as they are now suggesting it could have been an anaethestic not Demerol that caused his death and the doctor the police had "hunted" became fully compliant and was excluded from their inquiries. Quit jumping the gun and going off half-cocked - wait for the toxicology report like everyone else.

I completely agree with you. My father was killed by chemotherapy at the age of 36 in 1979. I see so much senseless suffering and illness, first, due to people's poor nutrition, and second, because of the drugs they are tricked into taking, most of which are like putting a band-aid on a broken bone or cause more harm than good. I promote natural healing at home for my patients which respond so much better to my neuromuscular therapy when they do. And we can tell when they have not been practicing good health at home, too. Thank you for the educating work you do. Blessings.

To Carmen, I am so happy for you. I know what you mean about Dr's who make excuses, or don't recognize the value of alternatives. After interviewing my Dr for 1 & 1/2 hrs about my treatment to see if she could "deal" with the alternative nature of it, (I went to MX) she said it was no problem. She ordered my PET scan & tumor marker study, and after waiting for 10 days, the report came in the mail for ME to figure out my results! I'm a Nurse, but not in oncology, so I had to do more research to figure out my own labs that my Dr dropped in my lap. NO service from her. My tests were all normal. Do you think she would even be happy for me??? Haven't heard from her since my first exam. That's how much MY Dr cares about me. Why is that? Aren't Doctors supposed to be about healing, really? I now just try to share what has helped me on my website in hopes that people really do have a fighting chance.

I am a nurse on a cancer ward and I have seen people have the chemo and then return because their immune systems are so devastated. Some individuals may recover from this, but there is a big chance that if you have chemotherapy, your chances of a cancer appearing elsewhere in your body within the next ten years increases hugely and in a more aggressive form. I have a person die from their radiation burns which have turned septic and eaten their flesh, they were under no illusion that it was not their tumour that was killing them , it was radiotherapy. I also see individuals who become so hooked to the pain relief that when it starts to wear off, they are in a bigger state of pain. It is distressing to watch.
Farrah had an initial tumour - anal cancer - and having chemotherapy would reduce her immune system so that eventually, this would metastasise and so spread to her liver. Another recent victim was Jade Goody, who looked comparatively healthy until she went into hospital. A while ago, I would have vigorously defended the conventional treatment, but once a dear friend of mine had died from the disease after all the conventional treatment (aged 35) I started to search for the truth. I am unsure of the real figures for nutritional therapy, but I sure as hell would prefer that route (even if I ended up dying that way!) than the conventional method. Sorry big P. I applaude all of you who have gone this way, and let us hope in the future that we can prove this is a better way.

I'm remaining anonymous as I would be struck off the register if discovered.

Regarding Anonymous person who responded with, Do you have to have any accurate medical information in these posts? It amazes me how shallow and ignorant people can be, for example, it's not far fetched saying we must actually live in a matrix... like the movie matrix. People are blind to the factual truth, unfortunate!
Their has been many clinical studies and trials, research!
I'm going to clue you in on a little secret, actually, this shouldn't be a secret at all. Let me explain, you may ask why don't our qualified physicians treat their patients that have cancer, or whatever disease, the alternative inexpensive and less painful way, I mean way less expensive and way less painful.
I think any intelligent person can figure this out, MONEY THAT'S WHY! You want to see proof just open your eyes and research for yourself
I'm sorry, I get passionate about this, but If I would have known about the alternatives earlier I feel I could have helped my dad who died of cancer, really it was the morphine, I saw first hand how my dad went down hill fast once he started to take the morphine. Also my cousin Roberta who was my age, she also died of breast cancer, well, it was the chemo treatments and morphine. The bottom line is this 1000's of people have died from harsh cancer treatments, not one from a natural substance called cessium to treat and reverse cancer, not one!!!!!!!

The Basics Of Cancer
Acidosis" is the scientific term for a body that has a pH below 7.0.. In this state, the body is deprived of oxygen causing one to be more susceptible to colds, flus and other diseases/infections. This state also contributes to accelerated aging.

Our modern lives give us ample opportunity to become acidic. Commonly-consumed acid-forming foods and beverages include meat, dairy products, sugar, coffee and alcohol. Environmental exposure to solvents, herbicides, pesticides and other chemical toxins boost our tendency to become acidic..

Acidosis is the cause of America's #2 killer-cancer. In order to understand the basics of cancer, we must first understand the acid/alkaline balance. Understanding the acid/alkaline balance, the following summary makes perfect sense: The prime cause of cancer is the replacement of the respiration of oxygen in normal body cells by a fermentation of sugar.

Over 75 years ago, Dr. Otto Warburg was awarded two Nobel prizes for demonstrating that cancer results when weakened cell respiration occurs due to lack of oxygen at the cellular level. According to Warburg, damaged cell respiration causes fermentation, resulting in low pH at the cellular level.

Dr. Warburg, in his Nobel Prize winning papers, described the environment of the cancer cell: A normal healthy cell undergoes an adverse change when it can no longer take in oxygen to convert glucose into energy. In the absence of oxygen, the cell reverts to a primal nutritional program to nourish itself by converting glucose through the process of fermentation. The lactic acid produced by fermentation lowers the cell pH and destroys the ability of DNA and RNA to control cell division. Cancer cells then begin to multiply without restraint.

The lactic acid simultaneously causes severe local pain as it destroys cell enzymes; the cancer appears as a rapidly-growing external cell covering with a core of dead cells. We know cell masses of this description as "tumors."

Subsequent research by Keith Brewer, Ph.D and H.E. Satori has shown that cancer cannot exist when the body's pH is raised to 8.0.

Dr. Brewer developed a protocol to therapeutically raise pH with the element cesium in conjunction with potassium.

Manny - As I was reading through this thread I was wondering why the work and theories of Dr. Robert Young (PH Miracle) had not been discussed. What Dr. Young is prescribing makes all kinds of sense to me. But then again what do I know? I who have bought into every scam immaginable. I want to believe in Dr. Youngs theories but then I come across articles that refer to his work as quackery and a MLM scam. What do you think Manny? Is the PH Miracle the real deal? And if a PH balance does cure cancer, as Dr. Young suggests, why aren't more Dr's prescribing it?

I believe everyone has the right to make their own decisions about what treatments they seek out for cancer, however PLEASE make it an informed decision that you have made AFTER doing your own research NOT after listening to one doctor or oncologist etc...I cannot believe how many smart intelligent people will bow down before their Doctor as if 'Allah, Buddha or God has spoken'! Doctors are ultimately just people, people like everyone else who do not have all the answers. It beggars belief that so many will give it all up to the medical establishment when they are diagnosed with cancer.Chemotherapy is exactly what it says it is..chemical therapy! I don't consider myself particularly intelligent but anyone with half a brain should be able to see the so-called 'logic' of filling someones blood with chemicals (!!!!!!!) in the hope of killing cancer cells is beyond stupid! The only time people with cancer get sick and start looking sick is when they start their prescribed treatments. It's criminal, they are literally being poisoned! If the natural health industry did anything like this the jails would be full of natural therapists...and as us who are natural therapists (in Australia )know we are banned from even treating anyone who has cancer. It is against the law for us to help anyone who has cancer but if you're a doctor you are allowed and expected to pour killer chemicals into another persons blood stream. Where the hell is the sense in that!? There will be no cure for cancer the way the medical establishment and researchers look at it because cancer is complicated
I have never given a cent towards cancer research because no drug will ever cure cancer. It's coming up 50 years since 'the war on cancer' started and where is the progress? And what about the billions of cancer research money....what a waste of money.

I agree with the theory about the ph.
I know from xperience that when you eat very healty lots of salat and fruit your ph value raises to 8 or higher.
And when you eat unhealthy your ph lowers to 6 or lower.
You can easily test this in the morning with a yelow paper test strip that you hold in your wee.
The color of the paper tels you exactly what the ph is and in this way you get some view of what effect food has on your ph levels.
How more blue colour the paper shows how higher the ph and how healthyer you are.
This will clarify a lot for everyone who test this himself.

Well I AGREE. They are doing this to my MOM. She refused chemo. which was good. and we had her on polymva. but to many nay sayers in the family. They brought in HOSPIC.
THEY ARE KILLING MY MOM. fentnal patch,demoral, holidlo. she is hanging on for long time. she lived pass her time as far as hospic was concerned. she is 80.
but she is not wanting to die. thats her words. but i see death in her eyes,that i didt see before. JUST 3 of us out of nine,didt want HOSPIC.They kill us slowly with drugs. SORRY for remberling on . But everytime you her of a death,check to see if they were on drugs. What about Billy Maze? .

Once again we blame a patient (Farrah) for "choosing" poison. Not a very noble way of criticizing a patient. Unfortunately, chemo. is the first option patients are given in this and many countries by oncologists, so by stating that she "chose" to be killed is a very unconventional way of negatively impacting the health care community. THE ONLY WAY WE ARE GOING TO WIN THE WAR AGAINST THE LARGE PHARM'S AND THE FDA is to WOW them with intelligent, research based data and NOT criticizing a terminally ill patient. It is unfortunate that we choose to judge and bash rather than present credible, news worthy scientific facts. Why did we not post a comprehensive list of alternative treatments that Farrah could have chosen instead? Wouldn’t that be more productive? As of now patients are still unaware of alternative treatments, particularly since the medical professionals they seek are offering what the Pharm’s and FDA offer. PLEASE begin by writing more informative and useful editorials if your goal is to educate and promote alternative approaches to traditional western medicine NOT simply posting opinions that provide no real application to the health and wellness of our society. You have the power to affect many lives and by putting out reliable and useful articles you can make a difference.

Wow, let you be the first ginny pig if you truly believe this. You clearly are not educated in cancer and it's treatments. Lucky you ....I guess you've never had it. I have and I'm alive after chemo. If I felt confident that there was something else that would have saved my life I would have welcomed it. I found out yesterday a co-worked who had the same cancer as I did decided to go the natural way. She died after 8 months. It's much more complicated that you make it out to be. Oncologist are bluntly honest about your changes and the impact that chemo may have! I can understand in some cases why people opt not to use it. One must weigh the risks and decide for themselves. I sure would like to know what you would do. I have a really good idea.

Much can be said on both the s ides we nee d pharmaceutica l indsutry at th same time poepl should be educated in preventive measures right?

The ignorance here is astounding.
The truth is chemotherapy is indeed a modern miracle of science.
Its pretty easy to sit back and pontificate as to the benefits, or lack therof when it isnt You doin the dying. The talkin part is always the easiest. Have You ever loved someone who had cancer etc?
Have You been in that little room when a Dr says you have cancer and there really isnt anything to help you other than a trial somewhere? Chemotherapy has changed incredibly and saves lives! I can prove it. Clearly it hasnt reach the Zenith yey , but on many fronts, it is really saving or adding to life! to say other wise is simply ignorant . chemotherapy is targeted and genetically designed for your specific indicators which are unique. My Uncle was given 6 months to live, 8 years prior to his passing, and My Father has Pancreatic cancer, did a whipple procedure w/ chemo and is alive 2 years now!! without treatment he would already be gone!
