    Exclamation Why Medicine Won’t Allow Cancer to Be Cured

    Why Medicine Won’t Allow Cancer to Be Cured

    Dr. Mercola
    Waking Times

    Imagine a commercial plane crashed and there were some fatalities involved. You can be sure that would make the headline of every major newspaper. Well, we have the equivalent of 8-10 planes crashing EVERY DAY with everyone on board dying from cancer.

    Nearly two million Americans are diagnosed with cancer every year—one person out of three will be hit with a cancer diagnosis at some time in their lives, in spite of the massive technological advances over the past half-century.

    Western medicine is no closer to finding a “cancer cure,” while cancer has grown into a worldwide epidemic of staggering proportions. The statistics speak for themselves:
    In the early 1900s, one in 20 people developed cancer
    In the 1940s, one in 16 people developed cancer
    In the 1970s, it was one in 10
    Today, it’s one in three!

    According to the CDC, about 1,660,290 (1.66 million) new cancer cases are expected to be diagnosed in 20131. If overall death rates are falling, why are incidence rates still on the rise? The answer is simple: the 40-year “war on cancer” has been a farce.

    The cancer epidemic is a dream for Big Pharma, and their campaigns to silence cancer cures have been fierce, which is a tale well told in the documentary film featured below, Cancer: Forbidden Cures.

    The Cancer Machine

    Please understand that cancer is big business. The cancer industry is spending virtually nothing of its multi-billion dollar resources on effective prevention strategies, such as dietary guidelines, exercise and obesity education. Instead, it pours its money into treating cancer, not preventing or curing it.

    Why would they shoot their cash cow? If they can keep the well-oiled Cancer Machine running, they will continue to make massive profits on chemotherapy drugs, radiotherapy, diagnostic procedures and surgeries.

    The typical cancer patient spends $50,000 fighting the disease. Chemotherapy drugs are among the most expensive of all treatments, many ranging from $3,000 to $7,000 for a one-month supply.

    If the cancer industry allows a cure, then their patient base goes away. It makes more sense to keep a steady stream of cancer patients alive, but sick and coming back for more. How did this societal monster come about?

    The featured documentary is enormously informative. It details how the pharmaceutical industry partnered with the American Medical Association (AMA) in an ingenious plan to overtake the medical system in four swift, easy steps, back in the early 1900s. In a nutshell, it went something like this:
    1.International bankers that own the drug and chemical companies gained control over the medical education system over 100 years ago.
    2.They gave grants to the AMA and leading medical schools in exchange for seats on their board and the ability to control policy.
    3.Finally, they cleverly engineered their control of virtually every federal regulatory agency relating to the practice of medicine.



    ‘Don’t You DARE Cure Anyone!’

    In spite of the enormous amounts of money funneled into cancer research today, two out of three cancer patients will be dead within five years after receiving all or part of the standard cancer treatment trinity—surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy. This is not too surprising when you consider that two of the three are carcinogenic themselves! One study estimated that chemotherapy benefits about one of every 20 people receiving it.

    Over the last hundred years, a number of natural cancer treatments have been developed and used successfully to treat patients in the US and other countries. All have been vehemently discounted, silenced, and pushed under the rug by the medical monopoly, with physicians and researchers attacked, smeared, sent to prison, and professionally ruined for daring to defy the medical establishment.

    To this day, with respect to credibility in medicine, “quack” is synonymous with “competition.”

    In order to protect the medical monopoly, any viable natural treatment is met with massive opposition by the pharmaceutical and medical industries. Drug companies have no interest in natural agents that they cannot patent, because they interfere with their revenue stream. They will go—and have gone—to extreme measures to prevent the truth about effective natural treatments (competitive threats) from reaching the public.

    The FDA is now, thanks to PDUFA, primarily funded by the drug companies and is complicit in this process. They restrict competition in the guise of protecting the public, when the reality is they are protecting the profits of the drug companies.

    My Top 12 Cancer Prevention Strategies

    There is so much you can do to lower your risk for cancer. But please don’t wait until you get the diagnosis—you have to take preventative steps NOW. It’s much easier to prevent cancer than to treat it, once it takes hold. I believe you can virtually eliminate your risk of cancer and chronic disease, and radically improve your chances of recovering from cancer if you currently have it, by following these relatively simple strategies.
    1.Food Preparation: Eat at least one-third of your food raw. Avoid frying or charbroiling; boil, poach or steam your foods instead. Consider adding cancer-fighting whole foods, herbs, spices and supplements to your diet, such as broccoli,curcumin and resveratrol. To learn more about how these anti-angiogenetic foods fight cancer, please see our previous article: “Dramatically Effective New Natural Way to Starve Cancer and Obesity.”
    2.Carbohydrates and Sugar: Reduce or eliminate processed foods, sugar/fructose and grain-based foods from your diet. This applies to whole unprocessed organic grains as well, as they tend to rapidly break down and drive up your insulin level. The evidence is quite clear that if you want to avoid cancer, or you currently have cancer, you absolutely MUST avoid all forms of sugar, especially fructose, which feeds cancer cells and promotes their growth. Make sure your total fructose intake is around 25 grams daily, including fruit.
    3.Protein and Fat: Consider reducing your protein levels to one gram per kilogram of lean body weight. It would be unusual for most adults to need more than 100 grams of protein and most likely close to half of that amount. Replace excess protein with high-quality fats, such as organic eggs from pastured hens, high-quality meats, avocados, and coconut oil.
    4.GMOs: Avoid genetically engineered foods as they are typically treated with herbicides such as Roundup (glyphosate), and likely to be carcinogenic. A French research team that has extensively studied Roundup concluded it’s toxic to human cells, and likely carcinogenic to humans. Choose fresh, organic, preferably locally grown foods.
    5.Animal-Based Omega-3 fats: Normalize your ratio of omega-3 to omega-6 fats by taking a high-quality krill oil and reducing your intake of processed vegetable oils.
    6.Natural Probiotics: Optimizing your gut flora will reduce inflammation and strengthen your immune response. Researchers have found a microbe-dependent mechanism through which some cancers mount an inflammatory response that fuels their development and growth. They suggest that inhibiting inflammatory cytokines might slow cancer progression and improve the response to chemotherapy. Adding naturally fermented food to your daily diet is an easy way to prevent cancer or speed recovery. You can always add a high-quality probiotic supplement as well, but naturally fermented foods are the best.
    7.Exercise: Exercise lowers insulin levels, which creates a low sugar environment that discourages the growth and spread of cancer cells. In a three-month study, exercise was found to alter immune cells into a more potent disease-fighting form in cancer survivors who had just completed chemotherapy. Researchers and cancer organizations increasingly recommend making regular exercise a priority in order to reduce your risk of cancer, and help improve cancer outcomes. Research has also found evidence suggesting exercise can help trigger apoptosis (programmed cell death) in cancer cells. Ideally, your exercise program should include balance, strength, flexibility, high intensity interval training (HIIT). For help getting started, refer to my Peak Fitness Program.
    8.Vitamin D: There is scientific evidence you can decrease your risk of cancer by more than half simply by optimizing your vitamin D levels with appropriate sun exposure. Your serum level should hold steady at 50-70 ng/ml, but if you are being treated for cancer, it should be closer to 80-90 ng/ml for optimal benefit. If you take oral vitamin D and have cancer, it would be very prudent to monitor your vitamin D blood levels regularly, as well as supplementing your vitamin K2, as K2 deficiency is actually what produces the symptoms of vitamin D toxicity. To learn more, please see my previous article: “What You Need to Know About Vitamin K2, D and Calcium“.
    9.Sleep: Make sure you are getting enough restorative sleep. Poor sleep can interfere with your melatonin production, which is associated with an increased risk of insulin resistance and weight gain, both of which contribute to cancer’s virility.
    10.Exposure to Toxins: Reduce your exposure to environmental toxins like pesticides, herbicides, household chemical cleaners, synthetic air fresheners and toxic cosmetics.
    11.Exposure to Radiation: Limit your exposure and protect yourself from radiation produced by cell phones, towers, base stations, and Wi-Fi stations, as well as minimizing your exposure from radiation-based medical scans, including dental x-rays, CT scans, and mammograms.
    12.Stress Management: Stress from all causes is a major contributor to disease. Even the CDC states that 85 percent of disease is driven by emotional factors. It is likely that stress and unresolved emotional issues may be more important than the physical ones, so make sure this is addressed. My favorite tool for resolving emotional challenges is Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT).

    What to Do If You Already Have Cancer

    Without a doubt the most powerful essential strategy I know of to treat cancer is to starve the cells by depriving them of their food source. Unlike your body cells, which can burn carbs or fat for fuel, cancer cells have lost that metabolic flexibility. Dr. Otto Warburg was actually given a Nobel Prize over 75 years ago for figuring this out but virtually no oncologist actually uses this information.

    You can review my recent interview with Dr. D’Agostino below for more details but integrating a ketogenic diet with hyperbaric oxygen therapy which is deadly to cancer cells debilitated by starving them of their fuel source would be the strategy I would recommend to my family if they were diagnosed with cancer.

    That Cancer You Beat May Not Have Been 'Cancer'


    Some early diagnoses steal funding from bad cancers:
    By Arden Dier

    When it comes to cancer, we live in a world where early diagnosis has become king, with the "reigning theory" being that early detection and treatment mean a reduced chance of death, writes Virginia Postrel at Bloomberg. "Yet this theory infers causality from correlation. It implicitly assumes that cancer is cancer is cancer." The truth of the matter is people may survive early-stage cancers "not because they’re treated in time, but because their disease never would have become life-threatening at all." While the intention is good, our early-detection obsession leads to "traumatic treatments" for many people who aren't facing a life-threatening disease and distracts doctors from a more important task: "developing ways to identify and treat the really dangerous fast-growing cancers."

    In a recent JAMA article, three oncologists recommend that "cancer" refer only to those to conditions that would likely kill you if you don't treat them. Another oncologist argues that rarely fatal "slow-growing prostate tumors" should be called "indolent lesions of epithelial origin" instead of "cancer," noting pitfalls associated with attaching the word to these tumors: patients get sick with worry, have issues getting new life insurance, and can even see their career stymied by worried bosses. Postrel is on board. "Changing the vocabulary finesses the fundamental cultural issue. ... Someone doesn't develop 'cancer' but, rather, 'a cancer.' How frightening that diagnosis should be depends on which one." Click for the full column.

    Breakthrough Study: Probiotics Save Cancer Patients from Deadly Chemo & Damaging Antibiotics

    by Christina Sarich
    August 19th, 2013

    You may already know that a healthy gut and plenty of probiotics to support your gastrointestinal health are absolutely critical to boosting your immune system (gut flora may account for 80% of immunity), but a new study coming from the University of Michigan has proven that probiotics may just be the answer to poisonous chemotherapy treatments and the overuse of antibiotics which tend to kill all the good bacteria in our bodies.

    When people undergo chemotherapy as a treatment for cancer, the antibiotics which are often prescribed post-treatment also kill whatever good bacteria are left, thus causing an absolute crisis for the immune system, and upping the chance that chemo will kill you.

    Chemotherapy is already one of the top causes of death among cancer patients, though this fact is hotly contested. Much of the pro-chemo science comes from the $200 billion dollar industry which supports it. Many natural treatments for cancer are suppressed for his reason. The simple fact that making sure you have healthy gut flora can help keep you from dying of cancer is one of those ‘cures’ the Big Pharmaceutical companies don’t want you to be aware of, among utilizing other cancer-fighting foods.

    Read: Woman Rejects Chemo, Overcomes Cancer with Nutrition

    The University of Michigan study, which was published in the journal Nature, was centered around ‘Rspol’ or ‘R-spondon1’ which activates cell production in the intestinal walls which then help to regenerate tissue that is damaged by chemotherapy and other forms of poisonous drugs. Mice given R-spondon1 survived fatal doses of chemotherapy since the substance was able to help their bodies regenerate new tissue faster than the chemo could destroy it.

    The problem is that pharmaceutical companies can charge upwards of $50,000 for one dose of Rspol. The secret they don’t want you to know is that probiotics help your body to make its own – without the hefty price tag. In a healthy person with good gut-bacteria supported by probiotics and the reduction of high carbohydrates, meat, dairy, and refined sugars (which tend to cause an imbalance in healthy gut flora), this special R-spondon1 is made every 4 to 5 days all on its own as part of our bodies’ blueprint for naturally good health.

    The epithelial cells in the intestinal walls are responsible for making sure this substance is made consistently, and without good probiotics and gut health, he cells start to slack on the job. Rapid cellular regeneration happens in those who have good gut health and balanced intestinal flora.

    As the pharmaceutical companies continuously try to patent or co-opt natural cures, it is our responsibility to ourselves and our collective society to make sure people are aware of the natural ways which our bodies already heal themselves. You can pass this along to friends and family to make sure the pharmaceutical companies don’t keep us dumbed down. Probiotics, in short order, are a simple and natural way to support cellular regeneration and live through chemotherapy.

    There are so many good intentioned people that have blindly put their trust into the drug companies as well as the FDA and the AMA. It breaks your heart. We all know someone who has been diagnosed with cancer and consequently been run through the gauntlet of chemo, radiation, and invasive procedures. Later, only to die a horrible agonizing death.

    It begs the questions then. What if all of the suffering was for naught? What if the loss of the loved one was due to a scam? Would it make you angry? If you were anything other than a sociopath, it most definitely should. Don't you think you at least owe it to yourself and your loved ones to at least seek the truth?

    I'll guarantee one thing, you won't get the truth from government agencies and lobbyist groups.
    On Trump:
    How conservative Republicans can continue to support this arrogant imposter—the man who brags about inflicting the world with the Covid mark of the beast; the man who said, “Take the guns first, go through due process second”; and the man who deliberately played and then set up Stewart Rhodes (of course, Stewart was all too eager to be Trump’s patsy) for an 18-year prison sentence—is truly beyond my comprehension.” Chuck Baldwin

    Eating Raw Garlic Twice A Week Reduces Cancer By 44 Percent – Better Than Chemotherapy

    Waking Times

    That’s a statistic the cancer industry cannot claim because almost 40% of cancer patients die within five years and more than 80% die within twelve years either of the cancer or the treatment that was administered for the cancer. Eating garlic twice a week will never kill you and it reduces cancer risk without any side effects whatsoever.

    The reason so many people die with conventional cancer treatment is that while damaging healthy cells, chemotherapy also triggers them to secrete a protein that sustains tumour growth and resistance to further treatment.

    Only through the forces that have carefully conspired to thwart meaningful advances in cancer research and treatment over the past century has chemotherapy succeeded. In what reality do we live in when cut, poison and burn are the only ways acceptable to treat cancer?

    The Power of Garlic

    Garlic (Allium sativum) is a member of the onion family Alliaceae. Garlic has been used throughout history for both its culinary and medicinal properties. Garlic’s distinctive characteristics arise from sulfur, which constitutes almost 1% of its dry weight. Although garlic does not typically serve as a major source of essential nutrients, it may contribute to several dietary factors with potential health benefits, including the presence of oligosaccharides, arginine-rich proteins and, depending on soil and growing conditions, selenium and flavonoids.

    Preclinical models provide rather compelling evidence that garlic and its associated components can lower the incidence of breast, colon, skin, uterine, esophagus, and lung cancers. uppression of nitrosamine formation continues to surface as one of the most likely mechanisms by which garlic retards cancer.

    The ability of garlic to inhibit tumors due to different cancer-inducing agents and in different tissues indicates that a generalized cellular event is likely responsible for the change in tumor incidence and that the response is highly dependent on environmental or other types of biological insults. Because metabolic activation is required for many of these carcinogens, there is likelihood that either phase I or II enzymes are altered.

    A breakdown of allicin appears to be necessary for achieving maximum tumor inhibition. Allyl sulfur compounds preferentially suppress neoplastic over non-neoplastic cells (Sakamoto, Lawson, and Milner 1997).

    It is becoming increasingly clear that the response to allyl sulfurs relates to their ability to form free radicals rather than to serve as an antioxidant (Antosiewicz et al. 2008). Allyl sulfurs may bring about changes by influencing the genomic expression by affecting histone homeostasis.

    Garlic has even been found to be 100 Times More Effective Than Antibiotics

    44% Reduction in Cancer Risk

    Researchers at the Jiangsu Provincial Centre for Disease Control and Prevention claim to have found a protective association between the intake of raw garlic and lung cancer, advocating that, “garlic may potentially serve as a chemopreventive agent for lung cancer.”

    The study, published online in the journal Cancer Prevention Research,notes that Chinese medicine has used garlic since 2000 BCE. The authors suggest compounds such as diallyl sulfide–that are released when a garlic bulb breaks into cloves–may contribute to the herb’s potential preventative powers. The researchers did not look at cooked garlic in this study.

    A number of studies on garlic have appeared dealing with diallyl sulfide and cancer. One from the Republic of Korea cites diallyl disulfide (DADS) as the most prevalent oil-soluble sulfur compound in garlic, inhibiting cell proliferation in many cell lines. Scientists there examined DADS ability to kill cells in a process involving free radical production. They found that the famous tumor suppressor gene, p53, arrested the cell cycle when DADS treatment was present. Cancer cells died following 24 hour DADS treatment that activated the p53 gene. They also found that DADS induced cell death was prevented by treatment with a compound known to prevent p53 dependent cell death by reducing free radical levels in the mitochrondria, the cellular furnaces. Their results showed that mitochrondrial free radicals may serve as second messengers in DADS-induced cell death, which requires activation of p53. That study was found in the January Journal of Biochemical and Molecular Toxicology.

    When scientists looked at 4,500 adults in perfect health and 1,424 adults with lung cancer, they discovered that those who ate raw garlic at least twice weekly had a significantly lower chance of contracting lung cancer. Scientists worked it out to be a 44% less likely chance. Findings were similar even if the adults smoked or were near cooking fumes, with a 30% less likely chance.

    The researchers conducted face-to-face, standardised interviews in China with 1,424 lung cancer patients and 4,543 healthy controls which aimed to find out about participants’ lifestyles and diets – in particular how much garlic they ate and whether they smoked.

    According to the researchers the “effective components in garlic in lung cancer chemoprevention warrant further in-depth investigation.”

    Supplement opportunities

    The researchers suggested that diallyl sulphide – a compound released when a garlic bulb sprouts into cloves – may be at the root of garlic’s preventative potential.

    Diallyl sulphide is a breakdown of allicin, an antibiotic and anti-fungal compound largely depleted by cooking or pickling.

    While the study concentrated primarily on garlic in its raw state, it can also be consumed in tablet, oil, powder, aged and cooked form.

    Garlic (allium sativum) is an important ingredient of Chinese medicine and can be found within many traditional herbal remedies and traditional Chinese medicines (TCMs).

    Yet proclamations of these health properties can be found outside of China too. The World Health Organisation’s guidelines recommend a dose of around one clove of fresh garlic for adults per day. While garlic tablets are a licensed drug in Germany, where they are prescribed for the treatment of atherosclerosis.

    Most of us buy garlic at a supermarket. We don’t know what kind it is, how fresh it is or where it’s grown. But there’s a good chance it comes from China, which produces 75 percent of the world’s supply — and whose food exports have come under scrutiny after recent discoveries of tainted pet food ingredients, toothpaste and more.

    According to Euromonitor International, China produced 13,719,1000 tonnes of the world’s 17,789,7000 tonne supply of garlic in 2012.

    Garlic is the United States’ biggest fresh-vegetable import from China, which sent 138 million pounds of it worth more than $70 million last year. The U.S. also gets small amounts from Mexico, Argentina and about 15 other countries.

    The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Foreign Agricultural Service says dehydrated Chinese garlic imports increased 384 percent in the past 10 years. Independent lab tests found “high levels of lead, arsenic and added sulfites in two supermarket-brand imported garlic powders from store shelves.”

    My advice is to buy garlic locally if you can and avoid chinese garlic whenever possible.

    Vitamin C acts like chemotherapy

    Although vitamin C is “only” an antioxidant, its unique chemical structure, closely resembling glucose, allowing it to penetrate all of the water-soluble areas and tissues of the body, both inside cells and outside cells. It only really fails to concentrate in fatty areas, although it can still have an antioxidant impact there, as it will regenerate fat-soluble antioxidants, such as oxidized vitamin E, back to its normal electron-donating status.

    Vitamin C makes all normal cells stronger

    All non-malignant cells in the body require vitamin C to fuel their metabolic activity. In fact, vitamin C can very much be considered the fuel on which cells run. Even inside the cells, where the antioxidant glutathione plays a prominent role in cell function, vitamin C is needed to keep the glutathione in its active, electron-donating state.

    Other antioxidants can help vitamin C perform its function, but when it is severely depleted, disease is always present.

    Vitamin C kills cancer cells

    The design of nature is incredibly elegant. While vitamin C improves the health of normal cells, it increases the oxidative stress inside malignant cells. This is because all cancer cells accumulate iron and hydrogen peroxide, and the vitamin C can generate highly reactive hydroxyl radicals via the Fenton reaction that can kill the cell when it is sufficiently activated.

    Normal cells have only relatively little iron and next to no hydrogen peroxide, and vitamin C cannot increase oxidative stress in these cells. Actually, in normal cells the only effect of vitamin C is decreased oxidative stress. As an added point, when enough vitamin C is chronically present inside cells, they cannot accumulate iron and hydrogen peroxide, and they are unable to become malignant in the first place.

    Chemotherapy kills all cells, but just kills cancer cells more effectively.

    This is why chemotherapy has such horrible side effects, as it gets into normal cells as well as the cancer cells. All cancer cells already have a state of increased intracellular oxidative stress, so the additional pro-oxidant effects of highly toxic chemotherapeutic agents can push this elevated oxidative stress to the point of causing cell death.

    Some normal cells are killed as well when enough chemo is given, but for the most part the chemo just elevates the intracellular oxidative stress of normal cells to point of disrupting their normal metabolism and making them sick.

    If you are reluctant to treat your cancer with only vitamin C, definitely take it as well as your chemotherapy.

    The way information is presented to the public makes it relatively rare to find someone who doesn’t want anything to do with chemo. Most want to “cover all bases” and take chemo along with whatever else they can find that they think will be good, including vitamin C.

    This approach can work well for many people who simply don’t have the strength needed to defy the advice of their physicians. Many cancer patients are simply beaten down mentally and physically, and they simply do not have the capacity to do anything but put their faith in their docs, even if they strongly suspect how they get treated will not give them the best results.

    Vitamin C will neutralize any toxic chemo drug if it encounters it directly in the blood, just as though it was snake venom or any other blood-borne toxin. However, when the C is given before the chemo, and additionally several hours after the chemo, it does nothing but help.

    Vitamin C increases the oxidative stress further inside the cancer cells along with the chemo and increases cancer cell killing, while it helps repair the damage done by the chemo to the normal cells.

    Generally speaking, the more vitamin C, the better

    Many cases of cancer resolution from vitamin C are documented in the literature. Generally, the best effects will be obtained by infusions of 50 grams or more intravenously, along with oral liposome-encapsulated vitamin C, several grams a day. As discussed in other articles, many cancer patients will not improve, or hold their improvements, if they do not address dental infections, especially root canals, as part of their treatment protocol.

    There's something seriously wrong with you people.

    And some of us know people that were diagnosed with cancer, ran through the gauntlet of chemo, radiation and various surgeries, and were subsequently able to get another 20 or 40 years of life thanks to the miracles of science.

    Survival rates have improved dramatically over just the past 10 years, and some guy in Illinois is bitching because it's still not 100%? And don't forget - he's got a branded line of supplements that can't sure you either.

    I can guarantee you won't get the truth from the snake oil sellers, either. That's exactly what Mercola is.

    It's a huge money maker... there isn't any money in cures. There are several cures... some of the most powerful are CBD and THC oils. Science is now just starting to catch up. Israel has been leading the charge on cannabis research for over 30 years.

    But if you have aggressive cancer, you can't just smoke pot on Friday night and expect to be cured. I heard you are supposed to ingest about a gram of hashish a day.

    Or what I would recommend is a good healthy dose of cannabis each day along with the dietary measures laid out by the OP, along with coconut oil, raw apple cider vinegar + lime + raw honey + water twice each day and 5-12 raw apricot kernels.

    It isn't the cannabis that gives them the cancer, to be clear.

    That they smoked cannabis had a positive bearing on whether or not they end up getting cancer. Doctors were baffled.

    Depends on how you are smoking it, for one, with many other factors attributable to its negative effects on the body. (smoking out of cigar wraps, for example, as opposed to out of a pipe or vaporizing)

    Simply because someone who smokes weed gets cancer does not mean the marijuana was the factor that caused it. Correlation doesn't imply causation. Your beliefs are that of many, the majority probably, but will continue to be debunked in upcoming years. Of course UMISS would have to stop divvying up bull$#@! dirt weed undoubtedly saturated in fertilizers and other harmful substances and grow good cannabis. I mean seriously, if you watched Sanjay Gupta's documentary "Weed" in which they showed what is being used for these studies it was ridiculous. You could throw bag seeds in the forest, come back in four months and have a better sample than what they are using. The botanists and horticulturists involved in that project ought to be ashamed. There really is no excuse... aside from them having no incentive to show marijuana as beneficial.

    [For Eduardo]

    Marijuana Cuts Lung Cancer Tumor Growth In Half, Study Shows

    Apr. 17, 2007 — The active ingredient in marijuana cuts tumor growth in common lung cancer in half and significantly reduces the ability of the cancer to spread, say researchers at Harvard University who tested the chemical in both lab and mouse studies.

    They say this is the first set of experiments to show that the compound, Delta-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), inhibits EGF-induced growth and migration in epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) expressing non-small cell lung cancer cell lines. Lung cancers that over-express EGFR are usually highly aggressive and resistant to chemotherapy.

    THC that targets cannabinoid receptors CB1 and CB2 is similar in function to endocannabinoids, which are cannabinoids that are naturally produced in the body and activate these receptors. The researchers suggest that THC or other designer agents that activate these receptors might be used in a targeted fashion to treat lung cancer.

    "The beauty of this study is that we are showing that a substance of abuse, if used prudently, may offer a new road to therapy against lung cancer," said Anju Preet, Ph.D., a researcher in the Division of Experimental Medicine.

    Acting through cannabinoid receptors CB1 and CB2, endocannabinoids (as well as THC) are thought to play a role in variety of biological functions, including pain and anxiety control, and inflammation. Although a medical derivative of THC, known as Marinol, has been approved for use as an appetite stimulant for cancer patients, and a small number of U.S. states allow use of medical marijuana to treat the same side effect, few studies have shown that THC might have anti-tumor activity, Preet says. The only clinical trial testing THC as a treatment against cancer growth was a recently completed British pilot study in human glioblastoma.

    In the present study, the researchers first demonstrated that two different lung cancer cell lines as well as patient lung tumor samples express CB1 and CB2, and that non-toxic doses of THC inhibited growth and spread in the cell lines. "When the cells are pretreated with THC, they have less EGFR stimulated invasion as measured by various in-vitro assays," Preet said.

    Then, for three weeks, researchers injected standard doses of THC into mice that had been implanted with human lung cancer cells, and found that tumors were reduced in size and weight by about 50 percent in treated animals compared to a control group. There was also about a 60 percent reduction in cancer lesions on the lungs in these mice as well as a significant reduction in protein markers associated with cancer progression, Preet says.

    Although the researchers do not know why THC inhibits tumor growth, they say the substance could be activating molecules that arrest the cell cycle. They speculate that THC may also interfere with angiogenesis and vascularization, which promotes cancer growth.

    Preet says much work is needed to clarify the pathway by which THC functions, and cautions that some animal studies have shown that THC can stimulate some cancers. "THC offers some promise, but we have a long way to go before we know what its potential is," she said.

    Now we just have to wait for Eduardo89 to post studies that say:

    Cannabis "contains ingredients" "known" to "cause" cancer and so "it must cause cancer" because "this study says so!"

    and

    Studies funded by the medical industrial complex who are currently profiting off of patented man made medicines and have a huge incentive to lie.

    That study compared cigarette smokers and marijuana smokers. It did not include non smokers.

    However, the study was critized for not including any non-smokers.

    This is the second sentence from that link:

    However, the epidemiologic evidence addressing the relationship between marijuana use and the induction of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is inconsistent and conflicting.

    I have no doubt that there are many medicinal applications for marihuana, however to say that it cures cancer is a huge overstatement, especially considering the (lack of) evidence we have at this time.

    There was a study that autopsied monkeys and found no damage to their lungs from substantial marijuana intake. If it is anything like a few of the other studies I've seen, they practically drown the monkeys in smoke. I don't remember the exact details off hand but it was widely reported and even made its rounds here. The researchers were baffled by the results and said that they would not have expected it. They speculated that the marijuana smoke loosens "tar" on the lungs and allows for it to be coughed up. They really didn't have an explanation.

    That being said I agree that there isn't enough information out there to definitively say marijuana cures cancer. It is helpful in many aspects with regards to treating cancer but cure is a very strong word. I am optimistic in what marijuana can be used to treat. It wouldn't surprise me at all. That we even have an endocannabinoid system is telling, to me at least, that perhaps we are meant to ingest this plant. I am positive marijuana doesn't cause cancer. They've been eating, smoking, and utilizing it for thousands of years. Medically speaking it is one of the safest substances known to man. Their biased studies and intentional spin persuade me not. A difference of beliefs, maybe. I do think time will tell. It is becoming more and more accepted as a legitimate medicine and truth be told the research into benefits has only just began.

    I wouldn't say medicine doesn't all forms of cancer to be cured. I would agree with (and have decent evidence to support) the idea that privately funded research is much more efficient and effective than other means of funding and research done by the pharma-focused "cancer industry" people refer to. Recent privately-funded gene therapy trials were far more effective than chemotherapy and saved lives of cancer patients that were once terminally ill. Pediatric cancer has had the highest jump in survival rates -- it's also almost entirely privately funded. Decades ago, leukemia in patients under 18 was once a death sentence, it can now be cured at least 80% of the time.

    The biggest difficulty is presented in the title. A lot of people see cancer as a disease when it's really an umbrella term for over 200 diseases marked by uncontrollable abnormal cell growth. Finding cures for over 200 diseases isn't an easy task.

    Also, many charities will use "finding cures" and "ending cancer" interchangeably while both require different approaches. In order to truly eradicate cancer, we must focus on prevention. Few cancer charities focus on this aspect of the war against cancer. Pollution is a large factor in both adult and pediatric cancers, yet clean energy is reliant on funds they don't have. Sustainability requires a team effort, but many people still aren't on board with simple things like recycling.

    According to the CDC, about 1,660,290 (1.66 million) new cancer cases are expected to be diagnosed in 20131.
    Wow, the CDC has very, very, long range projections!

    Western medicine is no closer to finding a “cancer cure,” while cancer has grown into a worldwide epidemic of staggering proportions. The statistics speak for themselves:
    In the early 1900s, one in 20 people developed cancer
    In the 1940s, one in 16 people developed cancer
    In the 1970s, it was one in 10
    Today, it’s one in three!
    One reason for that is that most cancers take a long time to develop- they show up in older age. Back in 1900 people didn't live long enough to develop most cancers. Life expectancy for males was only 46 years, 48 for females. http://demog.berkeley.edu/~andrew/1918/figure2.html Diagnosis also catches cancer at earlier stages now too- 50 years ago cancer was fairly advanced before it was ever found which means most minor cases were never discovered. Doesn't mean they weren't there. Mummies were found to have cancers. http://news.discovery.com/history/an...cer-111101.htm

    While I am not a Mercola fan, and I don't buy into the whole "hide the cancer cure" conspiracy, I think the lifestyle advice in the OP is mostly excellent.
