baking soda...cancer cure?

Dear Barry.

This is very interesting. I remember my grand mother using maple syrups and baking soda as sort of "cure-all" medicine long back. hmmmm.. Do you mind explaining further about "one part mising with three parts" instruction? I don't quite understand that.

Thank you very much.

I've done lots of reading on this since I saw barry's post. It's indeed very interesting and possibly an option I'd like to give a shot. However, all the materials I read were pretty much carbon copies of this "country doctor" named Jim and an Italian oncologist and not much more and newer information. This is interesting, too. Can anyone shed some lights on this? Any of you have tried this? Thank you for comments in advance.

Desperately seeking...

I got a window requiring me to divulge my email address before I could access the video.  I'm pretty stingy with my email address these days, so I didn't view the link you provided.  The whole topic of the maple syrup/baking soda cure was discussed here months ago.  Someone added a response yesterday, so it's just down the list a few topics. 

barry, if I were in your shoes, I'd probably give it a whirl.  There can't be any downside.  The materials are readily available.  Heck, it sounds like it even tastes good.  If it works, you'll save yourself a world of unpleasant procedures and downtime, and if it doesn't, well, at least you gave it a try.  As I mentioned in the other thread, I perceive the entire pool of information as tainted.  Whether you're an advocate of alternative approaches, or mainstream, or inbetween, we are all subject to a system that values money more than truth.  In the article, there's a claim that 185 people survived their cancer lived another 15 years and more.  Others say it doesn't count as evidence.  Some say sugar is sugar is sugar and you might as well use refined white sugar in place of the maple syrup.  I think it sounds like propaganda from the corn syrup industry.   I just don't see how refined white sugar could be interchangeable with unrefined syrup from a tree.  

Barry -- I've read many of your posts and I can't decide if you are genuine or just trying to shock people -- injecting baking soda and water into your tumor???  I certainly hope you are an eccentric person with a wild joie de vivre and not just amusing yourself at our expense. 

Thank-you for your message Barry.  I'm so sorry you're going through this disease, and happy that you are an interesting and inquisitive person.  My apologies if I caused offense -- It's one of those days and I am sorry being witchy.  I wish you all the best.

Flalady, I think you mean autoimmune disorders, e.g. rheumatoid arthritis, scleroderma, lupus, diabetes, multiple sclerosis -- and some 100 others.

Both autoimmune disorders and cancers are diseases caused by a malfunctioning immune system.  I know several researchers whose work in autoimmunity carries over into their colleagues' cancer research, and vice versa.  Thankfully, they share their info!

jerseymaria,

Were you around a lot of chemicals growing up? Second hand smoke or wood smoke?

Maria,

This makes me very curious. > "Somerset County had the highest rate of Lupus in the country." Wonder what they attribute it to. Your home was new construction. Wonder if there was any treatment like a toxic pesticide near the housing or some chemical like formaldehyde in the new building  material. What do you think? We need Erin Brockovich!

Well that gives me a great idea to use under my poor blstered armpit from lymphodema. I'm already using hydrogen peroxide jelly.  I thik I'l use baking soda instead of cornstarch as antiperspirant. Will keep you posted.

Please check out this link, BEFORE trying the maple syrup and Baking Soda.  I did try it, and it made me feel sick.  The doctor who injects it into the tumor is successful and curing cancer, but it is not a good idea to take it orally.

 The Calcium is easy isn't it?

Tums.

The homeopathic lady I go to suggests drinking water mixed with a teaspoon of baking soda or buying her baking soda tablets to get your PH level at the right level to help combat cancer and to help a list of many other things.

 ccbaby,

 I have tried this too.  The problem with it is that too much sodium can cause dehydration problems (plus baking soda tastes so bad). Have you asked your homeopathic lady about Tums? (calcium carbonate)?  They are cheap and are much better tasting (and must be good for problems with osteoporosis) than baking soda (and alkalizing in the stomach).

 LJ13,

I have heard before that there is no way to alter the body's pH.  Are you suggesting that the digestive tract and the urinary tract cannot be altered or just the blood pH cannot be altered?

 Byron

Byron, from what I have read you can alter the digestive tract and UT slightly by diet. This is one of the mechanisms believed to be in effect with cranberry juice. It is less of a factor that an actual compound within the cranberry itself.

Blood, or systemic pH typically cannot be changed by simple diet changes in the absence of disease. When the pH goes acidic (such as diabetic acidosis, or changes caused by severe liver disease), it needs to be treated or it can lead to organ damage and ultimately death.
