List,
I have never favored homeopathic treatments for cancer, but last
week I
met with an MD who had his license jerked. He had been successfully
treating cancer with homeopathy. There are others in India who are
having
verifiable success. It is well worth tracking. See the news article
below.
Vincent
CALCUTTA, Sept 6 (PTI) - Tiny sweet pills in slim
glass
vials, which were thought to do no better than cure common cold, have
finally
found their pride of place with world's premier cancer research body
approving
an Indian homoeopathic treatment protocol.
Thanks to pioneering research by a city-based father-son
homoeopathic physician duo, the US Government's National
Institute of Health (NIH) and Cancer Advisory Panel for
Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAPCAM) have recognised the
cancer
treatment protocol as "very striking and unusual".
"Our efforts to gather a parallel footing for homoeopathy as an
alternative
medicine have finally borne fruit," says Dr Prasanta Banerji, who is
busy
framing separate protocol for treatment for various forms of cancer.
Backed by over four decades of research with a team of 10 doctors, Dr
Banerji
and his son Dr Pratip, were invited to speak before the Comprehensive
Cancer
Care 2000 conference in Washington on June 29.
The team, which has had signal success in curing 70 per cent of
brain
tumour
cases, first caught US attention at the Fifth International
Oncologists
Conference in Corfu, Greece in 1995.
The global impact was felt immediately after Dr Banerji, the lone
homoeopath
among 1,200 physicians attending the Greece conference, presented 16
brain
tumour regression cases cure with homoeopathic medicines.
The US Department of Alternative Medicine followed it up with lab
trials
using, Dr Banerji's homoeopathic medicine on cancer cells, at the M.D
Anderson
Cancer Centre in Houston.
Having reviewed his case studies for over an year, NIH's CAPCAM
recently
certified the series, including four cases of lung cancer, and is now
keen
on
funding a clinic in Calcutta exclusively for cancer patients to be
treated
only with homoeopathic medicine.
The family has been practicing homoeopathy for over 140 years now
with Dr
Banerji's ancestors passing on the "tricks of the trade" down the
ages.
Using basic medicine formulae like cali carbonium and ruta
graviolins, used in common cold treatment, the team has churned out
successful
protocol for brain tumours through "mix and match' experiments".
Most cases get cured within of six months, but some may take as
long as
two
to three years," says Dr Banerji, assuring that there are no side
effects
like
in conventional allopathic cancer treatment.
The medicine costs are quite reasonable, claims Dr Banerji, adding
that it
can
become "everyman's cancer cure". But a cure is not always sure, he
maintains. "Just like in allopathy no one can assure you a cure if the
malignancy is at an advanced stage, homoeopathy too has its
limitations," he
concedes.
However, the treatment ensures a healthy living, unlike
chemotherapy and radiation, which "rob the patient of his health and
zeal
to
live," he says.
