Alternative Cancer Treatment | Cancer Cure | Cancer Remedies

I recently had a discussion with an insurance agent, and as we talked, she revealed to me that she had lost her husband to cancer.  We immediately struck up an in-depth conversation about cancer and all of the alternative cancer treatments that they had tried, but to no avail.  She was very intelligent and appeared to be very knowledgeable about alternative cancer treatments. She was familiar with most of the treatments that I mentioned.

Luckily, it had been a while since she had lost her husband, so she wasn’t overwhelmed with emotions as we talked. But as we talked, I noticed that she thought that shrinking the tumor was the exact same thing as getting rid of the cancer. I told her that the tumor was NOT the same thing as the cancer. In fact, the tumor is merely a symptom of the cancer. continue reading…

I have to take my proverbial hat off to this courageous physician, Dr. Robert Rowen, who decided to ignore medical dogma and go wherever the truth led him.  Although I didn’t finish medical school, he went ahead and fought the Medical Establishment from the inside.  I just fight it from the outside.

There is always a plethora of cancer stories in the press that speak of hope and promise for the ever-ending cascade of new drugs and various treatments.  In fact, I’ve noticed that there has been a promising new drug, therapy, or treatment that will change things that is ‘just around the corner’ for as long as I can remember, which is over 30 years ago.  What gives?

For example, I found an article about an experimental drug called PLX4032, which is said to reverse the effects of a gene mutation that is found in certain tumors.  They say that it is a prototypical example of the new approach to cancer treatment.  This is a strategy in which the cancer is targeted based on genotypes, and other various biomarkers of the cancer cell.

In some patients, the drug was said to have produced great results.  But when this drug was given to patients with colorectal tumors with the same gene mutation, it failed miserably.  This was a ‘flashing red light’ to me that strongly implies that the present paradigm is not correct, and is not working. continue reading…
