Check it out on Google...IPT,Cancer. It's very interesting. A friend is thinking about it for her mother who had a terrible reaction to the traditional chemo for colon cancer. ************************************** Get a sneak peek of the all-new AOL at http://discover.aol.com/memed/aolcom30tour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 4, 2008 Report Share Posted September 4, 2008 " Evidenced-based " medicine is a loosely used and variably defined term promulgated by the controllers of the conventional medical paradigm. It has about as much validity as " evidence-based " religion. To answer questions such as the validity of a strategy it is best to ask oneself a question or two that might require some reflection: How do you weigh the integrity of a non-compliant practitioner vs the integrity of the reigning medical paradigm. How do you weigh the skills of such a practitioner vs the " standard-of-care " medicine of those who march in lock step to the drum of the authorities. IPT uses 10-15% of the usual amounts of chemo. Is there any chance that the pharmaceutical companies would risk such a fatal loss of income? Would health insurance companies feel kindly about a therapy that would require expensive monitoring for decades? No, I suspect that they would sooner give the patient double the routine chemo doses in hopes that they can quickly close the file, after all, it would be better serving their primary responsibility -- the stockholders and, ahem, themselves. By prescreening IPT candidates for suitability one can routinely see amazing results. Very few IPT docs are oncologists, and I have seen a bit of elitism mixed in with the justifiable pride as these IPT docs outperform the traditional oncologists. I have also seen ignorant docs who know NOTHING about cancer get exceptional results by adding IPT to their practice. That must be most annoying to establishment oncologists. I do think that IPT is used too often in cases where the patient has drug resistance from high-dose therapy. I also think that it is overutilized when the patient lives too far away or otherwise can't afford the many weeks of treatment needed. BTW, Ukrain (which I also like) is a chemo in that it contains thiotepa which is one of the older chemotherapies.

Guest guest Posted September 4, 2008 Report Share Posted September 4, 2008 , I am sorry, to your statements I will join sentence: http://www.quackwatch.org/01QuackeryRelatedTopics/Cancer/ipt.html " Besides the danger of insulin shock and death, using the wrong chemotherapeutic agent(s) or doses that are too low can foster the development of resistant cancer cell strains. Thus, IPT can prevent appropriate chemotherapy from working later and make an otherwise curable cancer incurable. " Similar situation paint oncologists, in situation usage glutathione during chemo( contradictory with arguments of distributors of Immunocal). Jan From: VGammill I do think that IPT is used too often in cases where the patient has drug resistance from high-dose therapy. I also think that it is overutilized when the patient lives too far away or otherwise can't afford the many weeks of treatment needed.

Guest guest Posted September 4, 2008 Report Share Posted September 4, 2008 Al, As children we readily believe that which we are taught by adults who care for us. There is much comfort in this for the worried but trustful child. There is a survival advantage too. But, as adults struggling in a marginally comprehensible world we yearn for the calming comfort of simple beliefs. As few childhood beliefs can be supported by evidence many adults will ignore evidence and wrap themselves in a cocoon of blind faith. Other adults choose to keep their childhood faith, but their equally strong appreciation of the value of evidence forces them into a never-ending search to make the two congruent, hence, evidence-based religion. This is foolishness. If religious acceptance were simply a matter of following the laws of evidence and logic, then all religions would have the means to reconcile all beliefs. This will never happen because the true foundation of religion is one of culture and values. It is a waste of time to fret over the existence of navels on Adam and Eve, but true religion can assist many who seek moral guidance in a world of conflicting values.
