[Guest guest]

We all know that chemo kills cancers as well as healthy cells. Depending on

your health conditions and immune systems, too much chemo may eventually

kill you. I know five of my friends who passed away after a long period of

chemo treatments. To the point when the doctors told them that they could

not take the chemo any more, they were so weak and passed away.

I was told by a holistic medical doctor that High dose of Vitamin C through

I.V. is equivalent to chemo. Even though there were no clinical studies

to prove such a claim, he said that he knew that some doctors have used

Vitamin C to cure cancers.

I believe that options of treatments of cancers are really personal

decision depending on your health conditions. There are No clear paths to

follow.

However, we take some basic approaches:

1. Eat anti-cancer diets.

2. Maintain pH of your body at above 7

3. Ensure that you have sufficient oxygen at your cellular level.

4. Make your immune system as strong as possible.

5. Take herbal supplements which are ant-cancer agents.

Kelvin,

You hit the nail on the head. Without the studies and trials, alternative

treatments are just anecdotal. Why would someone put their lives in the

hands of information received from a friend's second cousin's boss. Etc.

Prior to being diagnosed, I said I would never do radiation or chemo. But,

once someone said the words " you have cancer " to me, all that belief in

alternatives went out the window. Mainly because I had already been doing an

anti-cancer diet. I thought long and hard on it and decided to do a

combination. I did surgery and radiation. And now I am following up with

alternatives to try to stop cancer from returning.

Now, of course, I believe that I will never do chemo. But having gone down

that path once before, I can honestly say that I don't know what I would

do if I was told I needed chemo.
