Overcoming Cancer Part 7
PHYSICAL CANCER THERAPIES
Walter Last
Almost as
important as specific cancer-fighting therapies is the creation of healthy
living conditions, and in particular, avoiding or minimizing the many negative
and harmful influences on our health caused by modern living.
The main
negative influences at present are chemical pollution, electromagnetic
pollution and radiation. Not only our food and water are heavily polluted with
chemicals but city air commonly is equally unhealthy. It is especially bad in
industrialized areas, close to heavy traffic, and in modern houses with many
synthetics and plastics.
If you
live in a modern house, try to sanitize it by minimizing the use of synthetic
items that release chemicals, such as formaldehyde from glue in carpets,
chipboard or plywood. Avoid solvents, smelling household cleaners and
disinfectants, tobacco smoke, mothballs and insect sprays. If the outside air
is reasonably clean, good ventilation helps to minimize the problem.
If you
live in an area with much outside air pollution, you may try to live away from
home during the critical period, possibly with friends or relatives, and best
in green surroundings. A health farm would be excellent but unfortunately few
are geared for clients on low budgets.
Avoid or
minimize wearing a bra, synthetic clothing and even heavily chemicalized wool
or cotton material (e.g. permanent press). Women who used to wear a bra 24
hours a day had a 3 out of 4 chance of developing breast cancer, compared to a
1 in 168 chance for women who never or rarely wore bras.
The only
good mattresses are futons that are filled with natural fibers. Most
recommended is a latex mattress. A cheap alternative is straw or hay from a
pesticide-free source. An innerspring mattress should only be used if it does
not deflect the needle of a compass moved across it close to the surface.
Commonly, only older mattresses are suitable. Do not use steel-framed beds,
steel-spring frames and move the bed if there are metal beams or live wires in
the wall behind the bed. Steel tends to become inappropriately magnetized and
carries strong induction currents.
Furthermore,
sleep in total darkness, or alternatively cover your eyes during sleep. Cancer
protective melatonin is released in normal amounts only when we sleep in
darkness. Profoundly blind women have up to 70% less breast cancer than women
with normal sight. Profoundly blind men have less cancer of the colon, lungs,
prostate, skin and stomach. However, simple vision impairment does not reduce
cancer rates, only if there is no sensitivity to light at all.
Sunlight
Sunshine can be beneficial or harmful depending
on the type, time and amount of exposure. There is a strong negative
correlation between available sunlight and breast cancer death rates; living in
a sunny area is associated with lower cancer rates. Even skin cancer is
inhibited by regular low-level sun exposure; only sunburn is a strong skin
cancer promoter. It has been suggested that approximately 30,000
However,
too much sunlight inhibits the immune response and is also a strong inflammation
promoter. Any increased inflammatory tendency leads to stimulation of tumor
growth. Therefore, with cancer, any sun exposure must be so mild that
afterwards there is no reddening of the skin. Except in winter, avoid
sunbathing within 2 or 3 hours of midday. No glasses or sunscreen lotion should
be used during this time. A recent report states that 90% of sunscreen lotions
contain chemicals that kill skin cells. I prefer a solution of the nutrient
PABA when sun protection is required.
Aim to be
outside as much as possible, such as in a garden or on a veranda. If it is
sunny remain in half-shade, or when in the full sun, cover up sufficiently. The
life-force associated with sunlight penetrates our clothing and also charges
the air that we breathe. As an added bonus, sunlight has a strong
anti-depressant effect. A good way of catching the life-force associated with
direct sunlight is by exposing drinking water or cooked or refrigerated food
for a while to the sun before eating it.
Minimize electro-pollutants
Strong electromagnetic fields of about 50 to 60
cycles per second (hertz, or Hz) are harmful to us. These fields exist around
power lines, power tools, electric stoves, heaters, boilers, freezers and
television sets when in use, extending several feet or yards around the
appliance. Stay away from them if possible.
Try to
minimize electromagnetic pollution, especially while sleeping when the pineal
gland is most susceptible. Switch off al power points and unplug all electric
leads with 2-prong plugs in the bedroom before going to sleep, watch that there
are no live electric wires inside the wall near the head, and try to sleep with
the head in a northerly direction, or otherwise towards the east.
Some
dowsers claim to have discovered harmful earth rays from fault lines and
underground streams under the beds of most cancer victims. Try to find someone
who is able to check the location of your bed for harmful underground
radiation, even if you sleep on an upper floor.
For more
information on electromagnetic pollution and how you can protect yourself see
the article Electromagnetic Pollution.
Dental problems
Individuals with cancer frequently have dead
teeth with filled root canals, or inflammation inside the jawbone even after
removal of teeth. These problems may not cause pain and so are difficult to
detect. It is best to have dead teeth removed as soon as possible, and the
remaining cavity scraped out to remove any softened parts of the jawbone. Just
leave some gaps if you cannot immediately pay for replacements.
Root
canal filled teeth appear to be a major contributing factor in many health
problems, not only cancer, but also heart disease and auto-immune diseases.
This is due to microbes multiplying in the multitude of tiny canals or tubuli
in the dentine and gradually leaching out into the lymph system. The only safe
solution is removal of such dead teeth, although problems might still persist
from the infection having spread to the jawbone. The microbes in dead teeth and
infected jawbones cannot normally be eliminated with pharmaceutical or natural
antibiotics, I recommend using a magnetic pulser.
However,
removal of dead teeth as well as amalgam cause a great strain on the body, and
should only be done when feeling reasonably well and strong, and with suitable
precautions. Before and after removing dead teeth use a strong magnetic pulser,
an electronic blood purifier and other anti-microbial therapies.
Preferably
have amalgam fillings replaced with plastic composite. The dentist should use a
rubber dam and suction when removing old fillings. If you cannot pay for proper
replacements, just seal affected teeth with cheap temporary filler and do not
chew any hard items. Also nickel as in stainless steel can suppress the immune
system. Try to find a dentist who is familiar with safe amalgam removal
procedures as recommended by holistic dentists associations.
In
addition to a vitamin C supplement program before and after amalgam removal,
the amino acid L-cysteine as well as homeopathic mercury 1M and higher
potencies are helpful in removing mercury from tissues. Professionally injections
of the mercury chelator DMPS may be used. However, these may occasionally lead
to complications and the oral DMSA not only is much cheaper but apparently also
safer. According to promotional literature even more effective, cheaper and
safer to use is P.C.A., a so-called peptide-based clathration (chelation)
formula produced by Goldleaf.
The pink
colour of dentures may be due to heavy metals, commonly mercury or cadmium. If
you cannot get a guarantee that the coloring is free of heavy metals, it is
safer to ask for clear plastic dentures made of Methyl Methacrylate, or Flexite
for partial dentures. Use plastic denture teeth rather than porcelain teeth,
which are based on aluminium oxide and other metals. Change metal bridges and
partial dentures to clear plastic. Even gold can be a problem because to make
it cheaper, it is commonly blended with 20% of the more harmful palladium. A
small amount of gold as for one crown may be acceptable, but as a general rule
keep your mouth free of metals, and make sure only metal-free plastics are used
as replacement. Try to find a holistic dentist.
Even
after removal of bad teeth, health problems can arise or continue from root or
metal fragments or due to chronic infection and inflammation in the jawbone. An
experienced dentist with panoramic X-rays may discover this. If you cannot do
all of this to sanitize the inside of your mouth, just do the best you can and
do not worry. Compensate any shortcomings here with a better diet and positive
thinking.
Packs over the tumor site are helpful with pain
relief or to help break down a tumour. Packs are especially effective in
combination with cleansing periods. Helpful packs are freshly grated or pulped
beetroot, crushed wheat grass or other grass, or black or purple grapes, 3%
hydrogen peroxide, Schweitzer solution, tea tree oil, hot castor oil, garlic,
honey, or even urine. Keep the pack on as much as possible, changing it several
times during the day. At other times you may keep a fresh outer cabbage leaf over
the tumor, cut out the lower part of the stem and make the leaf more pliable by
rolling it with a bottle. Renew the leaf after several hours.
In
addition stimulate the liver with a hot castor oil pack. Liberally apply castor
oil to the skin over the upper abdomen, stomach and the right side of the lower
rib cage. Cover with several layers of a woolen cloth and then with a hot water
bottle. When it becomes too hot, add more layers of cloth or just newspaper
under the hot water bottle. Later remove these again as the water cools. Keep
the pack in place for 1-2 hours, the longer the better, even overnight.
With lung
cancer use hot onion packs on chest and back, and eat plenty of onions. For the
pack squash the onions after heating until soft in an oven.
The honey
plaster has an excellent reputation for pain relief and destroying tumors. The
honey must be raw and not heated above 45 degrees C (like most honey sold in
shops). Smear a thick layer of honey over the tumor area and cover with linen.
Continue renewing the honey for several weeks whenever it has dried. It is even
more effective if you mix a few drops of 35% hydrogen peroxide with the honey.
Gradually increase the number of drops until either the honey becomes too runny
or the skin is irritated. Try to obtain honey that is not runny and possibly
crystallized.
Urea is
especially effective for dissolving dead and putrefying flesh, and removing bad
odor from weeping or pussy areas. Good for softening hardened or scarred areas
is a urine pack, for details see Urine & Urea Therapy.
If the
area is open and weeping then discard the pack daily and apply a fresh one.
Possibly alternate with cabbage leaf.
Blistering
Substances that irritate the skin can draw the
inflammation around a tumor to the surface where it can dissipate. The skin
becomes red, and often tender or sore to the touch, and may even blister.
Blistering is especially effective as it allows toxins to drain out. You may
drain the fluid from any blister and cover with fresh cabbage leaf or honey
until healed. The blister fluid may be used to make a homeopathic remedy.
As
blistering agent you may use freshly crushed garlic. Put some cabbage leaf or
cloth on top of it, and seal with a plastic sheet to minimize odor. Renew the
garlic daily until the skin becomes too sore and irritated, and then just cover
with a frequently changed cabbage leaf or honey.
Other
skin irritants are a paste of cayenne, mustard, and the white sap from papaw,
fig and petty spurge (Euphorbia peplus). The latter is also called cancer weed
or radium weed, and can be used on skin cancers and insensitive external
tumors. Also the Australian Kangaroo apple, Devil's apple or Solanum hermannii
(Curaderm) is effective.
A
kerosene pack around the neck is suitable for any tumors, lymph gland swellings
or infections in that area, or to stimulate thyroid activity, but also good
over any internal tumor where the skin is not broken or oversensitive. Moisten
a cloth with kerosene and keep over the tumor until gradually increasing
burning of the skin becomes unbearable. This may happen after about 30 minutes,
but can also take hours if the immune system is slow to react.
The
longer you can keep it on the better. The skin will be very red, and peel a few
days later as after a sunburn. Repeat after a few weeks for as long as
required. In between use honey packs or cabbage leaf. Skin cancers may also be
destroyed by repeatedly applying a drop of 35% hydrogen peroxide, preferably
protecting the surrounding skin with a barrier cream.
The acute
inflammation initiated by blistering agents has a strong immune-stimulating
effect and kills cancer cells. In contrast, the chronic inflammation
surrounding an invasive tumour is largely due to local overacidity, which
activates tissue-destroying cancer enzymes. A dormant or slow-growing tumor is
largely painless because it is free of this pathogenic tumor inflammation. With
advanced cancer it is often difficult to initiate an inflammatory healing
reaction until the immune system has been sufficiently strengthened.
Another way to remove melanoma and tumors close
to the skin, sometimes including breast tumors, is with 'Escharotics'. These
are caustic remedies, commonly with zinc chloride and the herb bloodroot as
main ingredients. For more detailed information on Cansema and escharotics in
general see the Cansema User's Guide.
To reach
a tumour under the skin, such as a breast tumor, it may be necessary to leave
the paste in place for two or three days and reapply fresh paste several times
as soon as any developing pus has cleared. Keep covered with a vaseline-coated
pad, which may need frequent changing. Commonly there is a strong local
inflammation with swelling of the breast, redness and pain for several days.
The bigger the breast, and the deeper down the tumor, the more difficult it is
to create a hole deep enough for the Cansema to reach it, and the more
applications are required.
Color Therapy
Blue light has several desirable effects in
cancer treatment. It inhibits cell division and tumor growth, or excessive
formation of white blood cells. It also reduces tumor inflammations, relaxes
and relieves pain. However, except with a general infection or inflammation all
over the body, and possibly leukemia and widespread lymph cancer, treat only
areas of malignant activity and other sites of inflammation with blue light, as
this may slow the body metabolism. Also, except for the purpose of relaxing and
becoming more peaceful or sleepy, do not look for long periods into blue light,
as this may reinforce any depressive tendencies.
You may
use a blue light bulb at close range to expose selected skin areas, but expose
the eyes to daylight or strong yellow light to stimulate the metabolism and
uplift the spirit.
However,
more convenient is to use a 100-watt bulb and place two layers of dark blue
cellophane over the tumor site. Over healthy areas you may place green or
orange cellophane for balance or stimulation. Instead of a light bulb, you may
use sunshine as a light source. With lack of energy you may use yellow or
orange light on skin areas where there is no suspected malignancy or
inflammation.
In
addition it is helpful to project green-filtered ultraviolet light for short
periods onto the spine. You may use a green filter or green cellophane over the
back and either UV lamp or sunshine. Cellophane does not block ultraviolet
frequencies. Green light, in combination with daylight or a normal light bulb,
may be used for extended periods on all parts of the body.
Magnetic Therapies
Flat ceramic magnets and smaller but more
powerful neodymium magnets have a role in cancer treatment. Commonly ferrite
blocks of about 75 x 50 x 20mm and smaller magnets of about 40 x 25 x 10mm are
used. Both have a strength of about 4,000 gauss, but the larger magnets also
have a larger field and reach much deeper into the body.
In
addition small but stronger 9,000 gauss Neodymium (a Rare Earth) magnets may be
used. As dot magnets they may be taped to acupuncture points on the body or
ear, while the larger discs (22 x 10 mm) or blocks (25 x 25.4 x 12.7) may be
kept directly over tumors or areas of pain.
In the
Magnets
are mainly used for pain relief and tumor regression by keeping the
south-pointing pole of a large and strong magnet towards the skin over the
painful area. The magnet may be on top of clothes and packs. For regression
apply the magnet for an hour several times a day over the tumor, but for pain
relief keep the magnet in place as long as required. Do not use a magnet in bed
if it has an innerspring mattress or a steel frame or base. This may cause the
iron parts to become magnetized as north poles, which could stimulate tumor
growth.
Generally,
the south-pointing pole inhibits infections, inflammations, pain and tumor
growth, while the north-pointing pole may stimulate these activities as part of
its general energy-giving and growth-promoting properties. To support the
immune system, a small north-pointing pole may sometimes be placed on the upper
end of the breastbone to stimulate the thymus gland.
Drinking
water can be improved by keeping it overnight exposed to the south-pointing
pole of a strong magnet. You may also expose cooked or refrigerated food for a few
minutes to this pole before eating. To regenerate the body, use the
north-pointing pole instead. When not in use, keep magnets away from the body
and from sensitive instruments, watches, pacemakers and credit cards. Check the
Yellow Pages for suppliers of magnets,
Electronic Zapper and
Magnetic Pulser
There are two basic types of electronic zappers
commercially available, the Hulda Clark zapper and the Robert Beck zapper, in
addition to newer developments. They are supposed to eliminate parasites, bacteria,
fungi and viruses, including the cancer microbe. They do this with low-voltage
pulsed electric currents. The
With the
With a
local infection or tumor also press the electrodes on both sides close to the
problem area, or one electrode besides a problem area and the other in the
opposite hand. The negative electrode, commonly attached to a black wire, tends
to sting on sensitive skin.
As with
magnets, it can be important in which hand you hold a particular electrode;
otherwise one may feel weaker after zapping. Normally hold the negative
electrode on that side of the body where the tumor, pain, infection or
inflammation is located, and the positive electrode with the red wire in the
other hand. You may also try muscle testing to
find the best electrode placement: Have someone gently press down your raised,
outstretched arm while holding the electrodes one way and then the other. Use
the electrodes as for the stronger test.
The
normal treatment schedule is seven minutes three times daily. The second
zapping follows 20 - 30 minutes after the first one and the third one after a
similar interval. The first zapping is to kill unshielded parasites and
microbes. Dead parasites release further bacteria, which are killed with the
second zapping, and these then release viruses that are eliminated the third
time. That is the theory.
Blood
tests supposedly show the Beck zapper to be more effective in eliminating
microbes from the blood. It appears that with the
With the
Beck zapper the small electrodes are fastened directly over the arteries, where
you feel a pulse, on one forearm or near the ankle of a foot. The
recommendation is to use it for 2 hours daily to eliminate all harmful microbes
and parasites in the blood within a month or two, including the AIDS virus. In
addition, I also recommend using the electrodes on both sides of a tumor, or an
area of infection or inflammation.
In
addition, Dr Beck designed a magnetic pulser to treat infected lymph glands and
other parts of the body with poor blood supply. With cancer also pulse your
tonsils, teeth or jawbone where there may be a problem. Also use the pulser on
any area with a suspected inflammation or infection. You may suspect an
inflammation in an area when it is red, hot or painful or even when it is
rather tender when pressing into the area. Use a strong pulser with a rating of
about 30 K Gauss or more when pulsing directly on a tumor, as weak pulses may
be stimulating. As for magnets, find the correct pole and generally use only
the south-pointing pole for treatment.
To find out which side of the pulser paddle to use, place a small flat
magnet with known polarity on top of one side and watch what happens with the
next pulse. Like poles repulse each other. Therefore, if the magnet jumps off,
that side of the paddle has the same polarity as the magnet placed on it with
the face down. If you then turn the small magnet around, it should not jump
off. Then repeat the test with the other side of the paddle. Finally mark the
polarities on the paddle.
There are
other types of more expensive magnetic pulsers available that may be helpful in
stimulating cellular rejuvenation. However, because of their lower magnetic
pulse intensity, they do not appear to inhibit microbes or parasites, and may
instead stimulate their growth.
However,
there is now also a magnetic pulser available with up to 10 or more pulses per
second (see Resources in Australia). It creates a pulsing
magnetic field rather than just single short pulses. I found it effective for
treating pain and inflammation, as well as restoring weak organs and tissues.
It appears to work by restoring the electric membrane potential of cells to a
healthy level. This is presently my favorite.
For
sources to buy a zapper and pulser see ads in alternative journals, such as
Nexus. Commonly, the Beck zapper is bifunctional and may also be used as a
colloidal silver maker. In addition, there are various types of Rife
instruments available to destroy the cancer microbe with selected frequencies.
Their success depends very much on finding the correct frequency, and I cannot
comment on their effectiveness.
Pressure therapy may be used as acupressure,
pressing specific acupuncture points, as in reflexology by pressing sensitive
spots under the feet, as pressure directly into tense muscles or as shiatsu,
which is similar to acupressure.
The
easiest method is reflexology. Have someone press the soles of your feet or
press them yourself, as against the corner of a piece of furniture or against a
rock or onto a golf ball or a broom handle, wherever you find a tender area,
also at the sides and top of the feet.
Press
each tender spot for as long as possible either daily or several times a week.
Select appropriate points from the reflexology chart in the article on Reflexology. Press especially the liver, kidneys,
intestines, thyroid and the tumor area, in addition to other tender spots.
Check
also the back, and especially around the neck and shoulders for tense muscles.
Press straight into tense muscles with the thumb or a knuckle, or even the
elbow so that it is somewhat sore but easily bearable. After the pain subsides,
press somewhat harder, or start circling under pressure. This will improve the
general blood, lymph and energy circulation through the body, ease pain and
support cleansing. Afterwards finish with some gentle massaging or stroking.
Massage
in the area of the tumor(s) can help ease pain and improve lymph circulation.
Do not disturb the tumor itself, but rather try to soften any tense muscles in
the area, and gently push the lymph fluid towards the collarbone. This is
especially important if any lymph glands have been removed in that area. If
lymph glands have been removed in the groin or armpit, then raise the arm or
leg while press-massaging it from the foot or hand towards the collarbone.
Furthermore, problems in internal organs and the breast often cause chronic
muscle spasms in related parts of the back with much pain and discomfort. Find
and ease these spasms or tense muscles with pressing or kneading, and also
press the related foot reflexes. In addition, give a gentle and relaxing body
massage.
If you
can get an acupuncture map you may also press points related to the tumor area,
and to the organs indicated before, or you may treat these with an
electro-acupuncture or laser instrument. Ear
acupuncture is quite easy and effective. Also have a look at meridian
therapy. Here you trace along the course of an acupuncture meridian with one or
more fingers or with a magnet. For details see Meridian
Therapy.
Energy Therapy
Wilhelm Reich wrote in his book 'The Cancer
Biopathy' that he could destroy malignant tumors by charging the red blood
cells with bio-energy (orgone energy). He could actually see under the
dark-field microscope at 2000-to 4000-x magnification how the blue energy
charge of the red blood cells killed the cancer cells. While this also
eliminated the anemia and cachexia (wasting) of his 'terminal' patients, and
greatly increased their survival time, it did not automatically lead to a cure.
As he did not use any cleansing measures, he found that most patients or
animals still died from congestion of the organs of elimination. Interestingly,
he also observed that sometimes tumors became enlarged due to their interior
being filled with blood.
Wilhelm
Reich used his invention, the orgone accumulator to charge his patients and
experimental animals with bio-energy. There are various possibilities of
charging the body. A relatively easy and effective way to achieve this at home
is by frequently drinking the fresh juice of young grasses. For further
information on energy therapy see Bio-Energies.
Exercise
The main aims of exercise in cancer therapy are
the increase of blood and lymph circulation, and the improvement in oxygen
supply and uptake. Most suited for this are slow jogging and light rebounding.
It is essential to breathe as deep and fast as possible without getting out of
breath, which would cause oxygen deficiency and aid the cancer.
If you
have enough energy to jog, and can do so in a relatively unpolluted area, then
start with just a few minutes, and gradually over the weeks, work up to 30
minutes a day. Jog as slowly as possible but breathe as hard as you can. Pay
attention to your lower rib cage and abdomen expanding during inhalation. You may,
of course, just jog on the spot at your veranda or even inside at an open
window.
Even
better, especially for those low in energy, is a rebounder. Some expensive
models, called lymphasizers, are more effective, but even cheap rebounders are
good to use, you may even bounce on top of one or two innerspring mattresses.
While it
is all right to bounce higher for a while, during the basic exercise you remain
with both feet firmly on the mat. Bounce only very gently up and down, start with
just a few minutes, gradually increase up to 10 or 15 minutes 3 or 4 times
daily, best before meals and bedtime, the more the better.
Keep your
hands touching body areas in need of healing, such as the tumor area and the
liver, or wherever you feel discomfort. With each upward bounce take a sniff
until your lungs are filled after 10-20 sniffs, and then exhale again in
sniffs. Always try to fill and empty your lungs as completely as possible. If
you do it right, you should feel energized after the exercise.
Lymphazising
is especially important with cancers of the lymph system, after removal of any
lymph glands, and also with any kind of fluid accumulation. If the patient is
too weak to stand, he or she may sit on the mat and a helper may do the
bouncing. In addition, activate the lymph drainage by circling with light thumb
pressure just below the clavicles and press on top of the feet at the bottom of
the toes.
Breathing
exercises can be used to influence our acid-alkaline balance. If we breathe
deeper and faster than normally, then more carbon dioxide is expelled, and the
body becomes more alkaline, while with shallower and slower breathing it
becomes more acid.
If you are bedridden, frequently inhale fully
while tensing all muscles, hold for a few seconds, then exhale slowly and relax
at the same time. Do this as often as possible. Balance your energies with
alternating breathing: inhale through the right nostril, exhale through the
left, inhale through the left, exhale through the right nostril, and so forth
for a minute or two.
