"Cancer represents a healer's greatest challenge. It operates like an
alien inside your body. Its biochemical laws are different from yours.
It's able to completely disarm your immune systemâ€"in effect,
creating an immunological shield to protect itselfâ€"all the while,
it fires out substances that weaken the integrity of your cells and
reproduces out of all control.
In no area of medicine have alternative ideas been more stifled than
with cancer. In Britain, it is illegal for any alternative practitioner
to claim a cure for cancer. In America, virtually every last cancer
pioneer -- mostly highly respectable, orthodox scientists -- has been
prosecuted or hounded out of the country.
In this booklet we hope to tease out the truth about the best treatments
for your particular type of cancer"

P.S. The homepage is even more "unusual", if anyone should be
interested.
I am a firm believer of natural approaches to beating cancer,
however, I am also a firm believer in making a personal choice.
There really is no basis in chemotherapy to say that this chemo WILL
work on YOUR cancer, rather it is generally like throwing spaghetti
on the wall to see if it sticks.
However, this particular trial, with offices in every region, has
basis IF you are going to select chemo. Through tumor biopsy, this
trial does molecular profiling on your specific tissue, to identify
dna/rna markers, protiens, that are specific to you. Then, it
searches for chemos and other compounds that are targeted to work
for YOU. I have a friend that used a fairly mild chemo intended for
myeloma patients to cure his adrenal cancer. He had almost no side
effects.
Even IF you decide to use natural compounds, knowing if your tumor
is topo2 positive, brac, tkn, etc.... can help you select the right
natural compounds based upon clinical trials that have occured on
the natural compounds and what they target.
This is the most sensible approach I have seen, and just because it
gives you target chemos, it doesn't necessarily mean you have to use
them.

Healthy Aging:
I Read the News Today – Oh, Boy
By James B. LaValle
Diet headlines sell newspapers and magazines. Because of that, diet and
nutrition articles are everywhere. The American public needs this
information. But BEWARE! You can't always believe what you read in
the mainstream media.
Because health information is so good at selling publications, reporters
grab any new study for material but very frequently do not report the
results accurately or put the study results in proper context. This is
such an insidious problem that groups like the American Dietetic
Association have developed programs to foster more responsible health
reporting.
Here's a recent example. A study was published in the Journal of the
American Medical Association that found that, among breast cancer
survivors, a diet high in fruits and vegetables and low in fat did not
reduce cancer re-occurrence in the next seven years. One headline based
on this study in a regional online newsletter was "Fruit Does Not Reduce
Cancer Risk."
What???
First, the study wasn't just on fruit, it was on total fruit and
vegetable intake combined with low-fat diet. But the most important
factor to realize in this study was that it was done on cancer
survivors, people who have already had cancer.
Because these study subjects already had cancer, we know they probably
have had serious factors in their life that led to their high-risk
status to begin with. For instance, they may have used hormone
replacement therapy or have very dense breast tissue, both of which
greatly increase breast cancer risk.
In addition, cancer treatment itself raises risk of future cancers. So
when we are studying a group of women who already had breast cancer we
are studying an already high-risk group.
So, the proper reporting should state that in a very high-risk group of
people, fruits and vegetables and low-fat diet don't seem to be enough
to prevent cancer re-occurrence. The problem with the previously
mentioned headline is that a healthy person who still stands a chance of
preventing cancer might misinterpret it and think that eating fruit
doesn't help anything. Yet study after study has shown that eating a
diet high in fruits and vegetables not only can help lower cancer risk,
it can also reduce risk of stroke and heart disease.
What's the bottom line? Fruits and vegetables contain a wonderful
array of disease-preventing nutrients in a low-calorie package. Eating
lots of them, especially when combined with other good habits like
exercise, greatly reduces your risk of disease - period! Keep eating
them, and don't let any headline tell you any differently.

The first theory was put forward as long ago as 1924 by a Nobel
Prize-winning biochemist. The second is far more recent, and was
discovered by a cancer specialist in Italy while he was treating a
patient with psoriasis.
Although 80 years separate the two theories, they have both stumbled
upon something fundamental with our modern diet that, if true, would
certainly explain the cancer epidemic – because it's something we all
eat every day, often through processed and pre-prepared foods.

Vitamin D likely responsible for decreased risk of advanced breast
cancer in women with greater sun exposure
An article published online on October 12, 2007 the American Journal of
Epidemiology revealed the finding of researchers from the Northern
California Cancer Center, the University of Southern California, and
Wake Forest University School of Medicine that increased levels of
vitamin D in the body which are found among those with greater sunlight
exposure are associated with a reduced risk of developing advanced
breast cancer, defined as disease that has spread beyond the breast.
Esther John, PhD of Northern California Cancer Center and colleagues
matched 1,788 Hispanic, African-American, and non-Hispanic White women
with newly diagnosed breast cancer with 2,129 control subjects. To
calculate sun exposure, the color of underarm skin, which is not usually
directly exposed to sunlight, was classified as light, medium, or dark,
and compared with the color of the forehead, which is normally exposed
to the sun.
The team determined that light skinned women with the most exposure to
the sun had half of the risk of developing advanced breast cancer than
those whose exposure was low. Because the finding occurred in only one
group of women, the researchers suggest that the effect was due to
differences in vitamin D production. The effect was seen only in
advanced and not localized breast cancer, which may mean that vitamin D
slows the growth of breast cancer cells.
“We believe that sunlight helps to reduce women’s risk of
breast cancer because the body manufactures the active form of vitamin D
from exposure to sunlight,” Dr John stated. “It is possible
that these effects were observed only among light- skinned women because
sun exposure produces less vitamin D among women with naturally darker
pigmentation.”
The authors do not recommend reducing breast cancer risk by sunbathing
because the practice increases the risk of skin cancers. Rather, they
suggest increasing the intake of the vitamin from fortified foods, fish,
and supplements. “If future studies continue to show reductions in
breast cancer risk associated with sun exposure, increasing vitamin D
intake from diet and supplements may be the safest solution to achieve
adequate levels of vitamin D,” stated coauthor Gary Schwartz, PhD,
of the Comprehensive Cancer Center at Wake Forest University School of
Medicine.
Co-researcher Sue Ingles, PhD added, “Since many risk factors for
breast cancer are not modifiable, our finding that a modifiable factor,
vitamin D, may reduce risk is important.”
Health Concern
Breast cancer
A wide variety of factors may influence an individual's likelihood of
developing breast cancer; these factors are referred to as risk factors.
The established risk factors for breast cancer include: female gender,
age, previous breast cancer, benign breast disease, hereditary factors
(family history of breast cancer), early age at menarche (first
menstrual period), late age at menopause, late age at first full-term
pregnancy, obesity, low physical activity, use of postmenopausal hormone
replacement therapy, use of oral contraceptives, exposure to low-dose
ionizing radiation in midlife and exposure to high-dose ionizing
radiation early in life.
Vitamin A and vitamin D3 inhibit breast cancer cell division and can
induce cancer cells to differentiate into mature, noncancerous cells.
Vitamin D3 works synergistically with tamoxifen (and melatonin) to
inhibit breast cancer cell proliferation. The vitamin D-3 receptor as a
target for breast cancer prevention was examined. Pre-clinical studies
demonstrated that vitamin D compounds could reduce breast cancer
development in animals. Furthermore, human studies indicate that both
vitamin D status and genetic variations in the vitamin D-3 receptor
(VDR) may affect breast cancer risk. Findings from cellular, molecular
and population studies suggest that the VDR is a nutritionally modulated
growth-regulatory gene that may represent a molecular target for
chemoprevention of breast cancer (Welsh et al. 2003).
Daily doses of vitamin A, 350,000 to 500,000 IU were given to 100
patients with metastatic breast carcinoma treated by chemotherapy. A
significant increase in the complete response was observed; however,
response rates, duration of response and projected survival were only
significantly increased in postmenopausal women with breast cancer
(Israel et al. 1985).

Women today face a growing number of health issues, including the need
to support gene structure in the breast. Detrimental factors such as the
aging process, along with the daily bombardment of damaging
environmental estrogen-like compounds, demonstrate the need to support a
woman’s breast cellular structure.
A wealth of research shows that specific plant extracts can positively
influence cellular status and remove some of the anxiety women face
about maintaining a healthy balance of estrogens.

----------------------------------------------
This is the Owner of the CancerVictory Yahoo Group putting in my 2 cents worth.
I would also highly recommend that you look at http://www.miraclemineral.org/.
This site brings to light an amazing chemical named sodium chlorite that breaks
down to chlorine dioxide in the presence of an acid like lime juice or lemon
juice or vinegar or citric acid. What is amazing is that when sodium chlorite
is ingested in very small amounts (a few drops of 28% solution to start) after
treating it with about half a teaspoon of lime juice or lemon juice, it keeps on
producing chlorine dioxide inside the body for some time, and this very powerful
oxidizer (chlorine dioxide) ONLY attacks things that are foreign to the body
like cancer, parasites, bacteria, etc. and does NOT attack normal tissue,
friendly bacteria or anything that belongs in the body. The distinguishing
characteristic of the things that chlorine dioxide attacks is that they are more
acid than the normal body pH.
Read the site, download the two-part book, purchase some sodium chlorite 28%
solution from the source mentioned near the end of Part 1 of the Book, use it as
directed, and be prepared to shove the cancer right out of the body. 75,000
people in Malawi have been cured of Malaria by this "Miracle Mineral
Supplement". That was done with a single dose. Cancer and AIDS have also been
treated very successfully.
The key to using sodium chlorite (Miracle Mineral Supplement) effectively
against cancer is to understand what is written on the Frequently Asked
Questions page (http://www.miraclemineral.org/faqs.php). One must start with a
very small dose and work up as the cancer is slowly driven out of the body. If
the MMS does not gain the upper hand by itself, there are instructions on what
more to do to gain the upper hand against the cancer.
Another substance I would take seriously is Zeolite, under the brand name
"Natural Cellular Defense". There is a good article on this at
http://www.newstarget.com/015232.html
One advantage of using Natural Cellular Defense is that it may reduce the
incidence of nausia associated with normal use of Miracle Mineral Supplement
against cancer.
Because cancer is a mass that must be dissolved, when one takes Miracle Mineral
Supplement to attack the cancer, some of the tumor dies off, with the result
that the blood gets filled with toxicity from the dead tumor tissue. This
toxicity can cause nausia, and if one experiences nausia at some dose level, one
backs off the dose and then begins again to increase the dose again. What
Natural Cellular Defense can do is to, as if, "mop up" the toxicity and also
penetrate into the cancerous tissue and neutralize toxicity that drives growth
of the cancer, thereby stopping cancer growth. By reducing the concentration of
toxicity in the blood, Natural Cellular Defense will naturally reduce the
incidence of nausia and also speed the healing process.
If appropriate, liquid zeolite suspension can also be injected into the vicinity
of a tumor, which is a very effective way to reduce the size of the tumor. In
this case, the natural mechanism for cell death in the cancer cells is
stimulated by the action of the zeolite suspension.
Another separate approach that is very effective would probably involve working
with a doctor who specializes in the use of pancreatic proteolytic enzymes to
dissolve the cancer tumor. See the Files area of
http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/Cancervictory/ and go into the this folder:
EnzymeTherapy_forCancer+audios
Both medical science and do-it-yourself approaches are included in this folder.
This is stuff that absolutely WORKS even on very aggressive invasive cancers.
The above folder contains the information you need to connect with Dr. Nicholas
J. Gonzalez, M.D. who is pioneering the use of enzymes to defeat cancer.
There is additional information on other approaches in the Files areas of the
Yahoo groups listed in the Cc: line of this email, especially the CancerVictory
and CancerCure Groups.
However, if the sister of your dear friend works with what is mentioned herein,
she will probably gain the upper hand on the cancer. Then her job will be to
learn to live in such a way that she does not bring upon herself the need for
additional cancer formation! May she be victorious and have a long happy life!
All best,

Drinking green tea associated with reduced risk of advanced prostate
cancer
A report published online on September 29, 2007 in the American Journal
of Epidemiology described the finding of an association in Japanese men
between drinking green tea and a reduced risk developing advanced
prostate cancer.
Researchers at Japan’s National Cancer Center in Tokyo utilized
data from the Japan Public Health Center-based Prospective Study, which
involved two cohorts enrolled in 1990 and 1993. The current analysis
included a total of 49,920 men aged 40 to 69 upon enrollment who were
followed until the end of 2004. Questionnaires completed by the cohorts
after enrollment were analyzed for amount and frequency of green tea
consumption, and participants were categorized according to their
intake.
By the end of the follow up period there were 404 cases of prostate
cancer diagnosed, of which 114 were advanced (having spread beyond the
prostate), 271 localized (confined to the prostate), and 19 were of an
undetermined stage. Although drinking green tea was not found to have an
effect on localized prostate cancer, it was dose-dependently associated
with a decrease in advanced prostate cancer risk. Men in the top
category of green tea intake, who consumed five or more cups per day,
had nearly half the risk of developing advanced prostate cancer compared
with those who consumed less than one cup per day.
The study is the first, to the authors’ knowledge, to examine the
association between green tea and prostate cancer according to stage,
and to determine the protective benefit of green tea on advanced
prostate cancer. They posit the induction of apoptosis, cell growth
inhibition, and cell cycle progression arrest as mechanisms for green
tea’s effects, and add that EGCG, a compound believed to be
responsible for many of tea’s benefits, has been found to prevent
tumor cell invasion as well as the expression of matrix metalloprotease,
an enzyme which is overexpressed in angiogenesis.
Although the researchers’ results are supported by a number of
animal studies, they recommend well-designed human trials to confirm
their findings.
Health Concern
Prostate cancer adjuvant therapy
Long-term consumption of tea catechins is common in China and Japan. The
frequency of the latent, localized type of prostate cancer (PC) does not
vary significantly between Eastern and Western cultures, but the
clinical incidence of metastatic PC is generally lower in Japan and
other Asian countries, in contrast to the common occurrence of
metastatic PC in Europe and the United States. One possible explanation
is that EGCG consumption in green tea in Asian countries prevents the
progression and metastasis of PC cells. This explains the lower
mortality rate due to PC and breast cancer in Asian countries as
compared to Western countries.
In regards to PC, there are now studies that show that vitamin E and
selenium use will decrease the incidence as well as the mortality from
PC. The ATBC study by Heinonen et al. (J. Natl. Cancer Inst., 1998)
demonstrated a 32% decrease in the incidence of PC and a 41% lower
mortality rate from PC in men taking alpha-tocopherol (vitamin E).
Another study by Fleshner et al. (J. Urol., 1998) showed a reduction in
growth rates of transplanted LNCaP cells in athymic mice induced by a
high-fat diet (40.5%) by dl-alpha tocopherol (synthetic vitamin E). The
landmark study by Clark et al. (JAMA, 1996) provided evidence that 200
mcg of selenium could reduce the incidence of PC by 63%. This is
consistent with the observation that selenium inhibited the growth of
DU-145-an androgen-independent human cell line of PC-by 50% at a
selenium dose of 1 × 10-6 M and by 98% at a dose of 10-4 M.

If you believe you need to take all the pills the pharmaceutical
industry says you do, then you're already on drugs.
Yes, it's that time in the campaign where all the candidates are
presenting their health care proposals. Hillary's covers children's
teeth. Edwards has one that includes maintaining gorgeous, shiny hair
and Barack Obama's involves going on Oprah, and everyone gets a gastric
bypass! But, none of the plans address the real problem. We won't stop
being sick until we stop making ourselves sick. Because - because there
is a point where even the most universal government health program can't
help you. They can't outlaw unhealthy food or alcohol or cigarettes.
Just pot, sadly. Because, you see, the government isn't your nanny.
They're your dealer. And they subsidize illness in America. They have
to. There's too much money in it.
You see, there's no money in healthy people. And there's no money
in dead people. The money is in the middle. People who are alive, sort
of -- but with one or more chronic conditions that puts them in need of
Celebrex or Nasonex or Valtrex or Lunesta. Fifty years ago, children
didn't even get Type 2 Diabetes.
Now, it's an emerging epidemic. As are a long list of ailments which
used to be rare, and have now been "mainstreamed." Things like asthma
and autism and acid reflux, and arthritis, allergies, adult acne,
attention deficit disorder. And that's just the "A's." Doesn't anybody
wonder why we live with all this illness? I'll tell you why. At the L.A.
County Fair last week, they were serving something called "Fried Coke."
Now, my first thought was, gosh, what a waste of a perfectly good "Eight
Ball." But, no, they actually pour the Coca-Cola syrup into a deep
fryer. Then put it in a cup and top it with sugar and whipped cream, and
a cherry, because, you know, fruit is good for you.
Would it really be that much more unhealthy to get molested by one of
the carnies?
In Hillary Clinton's health plan, the words "nutrition" and "exercise"
appear once. The word "drugs" 14 times. Just as the pharmaceutical
companies want
it. You know, their ad weasels love to say, "When diet and exercise
failed" Well, diet and exercise don't fail. A fact brought home last
week by a new Duke
University study that showed exercise - yes, exercise - is just as
effective a cure for depression as Paxil and Zoloft.
So ask your doctor if getting off your ass is right for you. You know,
if Republicans can sell the idea of preemptive war, Democrats have to at
least get us interested in the idea of preventive medicine. Someone has
to stand up and say that the answer isn't another pill. The answer is
spinach. Okay, not spinach. Turns out that crap'll kill you. But you
know what I mean!

Drug causes tumour cells to self-destruct
Tuesday, October 2, 2007
Drug causes tumour cells to self-destruct :
Barcelona: Doctors are hopeful about a new drug to treat skin cancer by
causing tumor cells to self-destruct by overloading them with oxygen.
Unlike regular cells, which naturally cannot have their oxidant levels
raised beyond a certain threshold, cancer cells cannot balance the
amount of free radicals inside them.
With the new drug STA-4783, doctors may be able to overload the cancer
cells with oxygen-containing chemicals to the point where the cells
cannot cope and simply die off, according to research presented
Wednesday at a meeting of the European Cancer Organization in Barcelona.
“We are taking advantage of the Achilles heel of cancer
cells,” said Dr Anthony Williams, vice president of clinical
research at Synta Pharmaceuticals Corp, based in Lexington,
Massachusetts, which paid for the study. STA-4783, which has no effect
on normal cells, is the first of several such drugs planned for study,
though no other companies have yet to release results from their
research.
It could also be used against other cancers, such as pancreatic or
ovarian, as they have been shown to naturally contain higher levels of
oxygen. Because cancerous tumor cells already have high oxygen levels,
they are easier to overload. Doctors said the study focused on skin
cancer, though, as melanoma tumors were particularly deadly. Williams
detailed how the drug doubled the amount of time that advanced melanoma
patients survived without their cancer worsening.
The study followed 81 patients with serious skin cancer: 28 received the
standard chemotherapy drug paclitaxel and lived an average of 1.8
months, while 53 got paclitaxel plus the new drug and survived an
average of 3.7 months. Because STA-4783 targets only cancer cells,
Williams said the drug does not come with too many side effects. Less
than 5% of patients suffered serious side effects, which were similar to
those seen in regular chemotherapy treatments, such as a temporary
lowering of white blood cells, back pain and fatigue. AP
