Alternative Treatment

Abigail, I was talking about the chinese herb which goes by many names, Ban Zhi Lian/ Barbed Skullcap Herb/ Scutellaria Barbata/ Barbat Skullcap/ Skute Barbata/ Herba Scutellariae Barbatae

Please note there are several herbs called Skullcap or Scullcap, the most common is American Skullcap and this is   not   the same as Scutellaria Barbata/ Ban Zhi Lian.  Getting the right herb is important.

in the interim I got back to my herbal books:  skimming them I found what I'd noted long ago:  the best cancer remedy herb is......violets.  again a dark color, as dark colored fruits & vegetables are said to be best, the literature has 2 cures noted with this herb, (none breast cancer), but violets, on this continent anyway, are teeny & few.  expensive, I guess, but I wonder what african violet plant mushed up & use topically would do..........

That Geranium... Herb Robert, is a good find Abigail.  I'd never heard of it as I've mostly researched Asian herbs so far. Also known as Death come quickly or Stinky Bob, a noxious weed in Washington, smells like burnt tires or dead mice, Crushed and rubbed on skin, repels mosquitoes. LOL  It makes for an interesting read.

I hope I can find some research to back up the health claims. So far I've only found one confirming it's an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory and acknowledging it's traditionally been used to treat cancer. 

Plant extracts with anti-inflammatory properties--a new approach for characterization of their bioactive compounds and establishment of structure-antioxidant activity relationships. 

One of my Unty is suffering from it I am too looing for alternative for it.

interesting link, I skimmed most of it.  use apricot kernal oil recently topically, juice dark grapes when we can get them:  having no supermarket for the last many months is very difficult, but it's a promise (right) to open for business again in june.  YAY

I guess dr. rife isn't the light remedy i mentioned above, though that dr did say cancer was a greenish blue non'or permeable bacteria, cured with an opposite color of light with his machine.

I did get a pineapple last time my helpers went down the mt to a realmarket, must process it today.  thinking seriously about getting bromalaine, though any pills or capsules is a slippery slope, I think, & I'd need vegetarian capsules, not sure how bromalaine is marketed.....

Abigail, I don't think the Rife machine is a light weight.  I did a search on BCO to see if the topic was discussed. Very interesting. Seach "Anyone hear of a Rife Machine?"

There was a woman, bilbuz, who was dx with uterine cancer. She started using the machine, but she did not inform her doctor. After bilbuz had the hysterectomy, her doctor called her to apologize because she took out a healthy uterus, so apparently the machine worked.  

The reason bilbuz did not share what she was doing with her doctor is because she did not believe in alternative treatments. I think she is a believer now. (lol)

I'd be interested in trying that Rife machine. Right now I am looking into PEMF. My naturo doc recommended one. He said that it was not the same as Rife. So finally, I started looking at the web page for it and I see it is contraindicated for oncological conditions. I emailed him about that and am awaiting a response. It may be something they have to put on their site so that the Medical Mafia doesn't come after them. With what it is supposed to do, I don't see why it would logically be contraindicated for cancer. But then, I'm no expert.

How's everyone doing with their alternative protocols? I think I am taking too many supplements, so that's another thing I need to talk to naturo doc about. Also, I must make an appt with a nutritionist who is alternative-minded. But I just came back to work this week and am working OT. I think I came back to soon. Keep breaking into tears. Next week I have bone density scan on Monday, PET scan on Tuesday, echo cardiogram on Wednesday, and my first "pump me up" by breast reconstruction doc on Thursday. Plus working. My exercise plans for these 2 weeks are screwed.

zuvart, appreciate your directing me to the only alternatives thread via your profile, I'd lost it somehow

I've been thinking of ....tobacco.  not smoking, & not cigarettes, they have a large percentage of sugar & harmalines, which may be estrogenic (?), but I'm an astrologer, not a very good one apparently, tobacco is the only drug ruled by mars.  but how would one use it........it's a stron poison, & how would one get the leaf..........

I guess Barbie never heard of the Cold Caps to keep your hair...

I bet you are right Caryn. After I read the article a little more closely I see that it is intended only for kids who have lost their hair. I just wish chemo was NOT the standard of care, so all this hair loss wouldn't be necessary. Sorry if I offended anyone.

I must not go back to the chat room with the conventional ladies. I must not go back to the chat room with the conventional ladies. I must not go back to the chat room with the conventional ladies.

They make me crazy! They treat me like I have no sense or intelligence at all. And frankly, I think I actually hate them now.

Venting.

iS THIS A CANCER MIRACLE?

Dune, I know....but don't want to be haranged by the skeptics...

Evebarry, thanks for the link, that is truly a shame - I know someone somewhere wanted to know how to obtain it, don't know if she was successful. 

Alert:

I definitely do not recommend MMS. It has been renamed a number of times, trying to avoid the FDA. It is sometimes called Miracle Mineral Supplement, Master Mineral Supplement, and Advanced Oxygen Therapy. It was recommended to me by a friend, and she swears she has never felt better since she started taking it. However, it is poison. 

They refer to healing reactions or detox reactions during this tx. In other words, these are days you may be throwing up or having diarrhea. For me it was terrible stomach pain followed by vomiting.

I stopped taking it but my urine continued to smell strongly musty. When I looked that symptom up, I became very concerned. I called the guy who sold it to me and all sorts of red flags went up for me.

As I researched it more, I found that I had taken industrial strength bleach: chlorine dioxide. On the advice of a friend I called poison control. They wanted me to go to the ER. However, this was 2 days later. I drank a lot of water and forced myself to eat in order to try to eliminate it from my system.

The only thing they would be able to do for me is to check my GI track to see if it did any damage. Hopefully it did not. I only took it 2 days.

So, while I am determined to do alternative, I hope you will learn from my mistake. I don't think this is a good one to try.
