It's best to avoid opiates, as they suppress immunity.

The following are the natural remedies that I have the most confidence

in for providing maximum pain relief (for cancer patients). I welcome

any suggested changes to this list.

“DLPA [DL-phenylalanine]…75% of the time it works as well as

morphine....DLPA can be picked up at the many/most vitamin stores.

Usual dose is about 3 grams per day until pain is gone….slows the

catabolism of the body's endorphins. Once management is achieved

modulate at about 500mg per day†( Gammill [a trusted friend

and colleague of mine), ScD, ND, vgammill@...

*Relevit (Letstalkhealth.com or Donsbach.com)

Yan Hu Suo--from Chinese fumewort; " has been compared to morphine "

www.naturalhealthconsult.com/Monographs/yanhusuo.html

Tramadol (Ultram)†" “endorsed by [LEF.org] as the pain med of choice for

cancer patients…does not depress the immune system, instead increasing

natural killer cell activityâ€

SPES--“more effective than morphine†( Yance [master herbalist

whom I immensely respect], 1999, p. 165); by Botaniclab (800-242-5555)

castor oil packs

coffee enemas, colonics, and other detox methods

dental detox-- elimination of dental infections; consult holistic

dentist (www.iaomt.org)

*Pain Control audio by Hemi-Sync (www.hemi-sync.com/catalog)-- I've

been told they can be powerfully pain-relieving. I might also consider

their Cancer Support Series, Surgical Support Series, and De-Discomfort.

germanium-132 (Ge-132)-- very effective pain reliever; I’d take

moderate to large doses only under supervision of physician

alkalinzing one's body, particularly by using

cesium-- use ONLY under medical supervision; “severe pain from

prostate cancer…disappeared a couple of days after he began the

cesium. Before that, he was on morphineâ€; May take up to 3 days to be

effective. For more info " The Pain of Terminal Cancer on pp. 313- of

_Painfree in Six Weeks_ by Sherry â€

magnets

“E.F.T. (Emotion Freedom Technique) can be used to relieve pain. It

consists of tapping with finger tips on energy meridian points. You

can find out more about it at http://www.emofree.com or contact me

privately. I am a practitioner but do not charge for cancer patients.

Priest

I know NOTHING about Priest.

The following are other things that I think provide significant pain

relief:

Pan Away (YoungLivingOils.com)†" helichrysum, wintegreen, clove, &

peppermint essential oils; anti-inflammatory; take externally

valerian essential oil’s also effective

Noni juice--“ Gerson [M.D.] states that this product is 70% as

effective as morphineâ€, but I don’t recall hearing anyone else

mentioning Noni as being a pain-killer, so I’m skeptical

mushrooms-- maitake (alleviated pain in 83% of patients), reishi,

cordyceps, shiitake

" Dr. Rowen in his newsletter Second Opinion, wrote about the

remarkable results obtained by simply exerting a slight pressure on

the edge of a muscle or tendon...applied in a 90 degree direction

perpendicular to its line of force. This results in a relaxation of

the muscle or tendon....originated by Tom Bowen....can be used for

Muscle sprains, carpal tunnel...elbow problems, PMS, menopause,

fibroids, prostate problems, sciatica, migraines, ear

problems...TMJ...respiratory problems and even organ

dysfunctions....Bowen Registry...866-862-6936.... USBR@...) "

Hulda 's " zapper "

visualization/imagery, meditation, & relaxation techniques

acupuncture & acupressure

neural therapy

polarizing treatment (GKI)

Pain caused by inflammation can be reduced by anti-inflammatory herbs

(e.g., turmeric/curcumin, burdock, ginger), fish oil, and (taken on

empty stomach) bromelain & pancreatin

Vit. B3 (Niacin)-- 50 mg, up to 6x/day

Vit. C-- 500 mg, 6x/day

Vit. D

amygdalin/Laetrile-- relieves pain, nausea, and vomiting. Available in

the form of ground apricot pits. Do NOT exceed recommended oral

dosage, and do NOT use Laetrile/amygdalin at times of fever. Take it

with food, in several small dosages throughout the day (NOT 1 large

dosage). Use a good brand.
