Hello my friend has AML (acute Myeloid Leukemia) is 25 and has just started chemo. We did not have time to waste assessing natural alternatives however i dont want to rely solely on conventional medicine as it has bad success rates. I want to help support him with supplementation during chemo but i am aware that any anti-oxidation can benefit cancer cells. I also want to know about supplementation to achieve optimal health to avoid relapse after chemo, - regarding deficiencies, toxicities, ph levels, oxygenation etc.
has anyone heard of, tryed, or had success with Amino acid L-Theanine, Zeolite, oxy-3, or others?
Hi,
I heard your message and had to reply.
There is an alternative cancer healing method that
has a 70% success rate. The method is Gerson.
There are of course many good methods out there.
I know that this method heals many people.
I posted this earlier, I'm posting it to you
in case you did not get a chance to read it?
God be with you, I believe in Gerson and they can
answer all of your questions. There are many
knowledgeable people here as well.
Cindy H., 50. Remarkable response to immunotherapy of a woman with stage IV cholangiocarcinoma metastasized to liver, kidney, and both lungs.
Cindy H. is a 50-year-old woman who was first seen April 17, 2006, by a Kaiser Permanente physician for right-sided abdominal pain with a history of nausea going back many months. Cindy reported that the pain was not directly associated with the nausea. She had recently experienced occasional vomiting, which was worst in the mornings, but was not associated with food. An ultrasound of the abdomen revealed a large mass in the right lobe of her liver. A CT scan of the abdomen was scheduled for April 25, 2006, but before that could happen she became very ill.
On April 23, 2006, Cindy was admitted to a holding unit by Kaiser Urgent Care for dehydration due to a 3-day history of inability to eat or drink, severe nausea and vomiting, and a 1-day history of watery diarrhea. She was subsequently admitted to Kaiser where she was hydrated and, on April 24, 2006, the previously scheduled CT studies were conducted. A triple-phase CT of her liver demonstrated that the right lobe was approximately 60% replaced by multiple tumors, which encased and occluded the inferior vena cava, and extended to and engulfed the right adrenal gland. Renal veins also appeared to be occluded bilaterally with collateral venous drainage. Both of her lungs were found to have multiple metastatic nodules, more than a dozen in all. A guided needle biopsy of the large liver mass was found to be an adenocarcinoma, specifically cholangiocarcinoma.
During hospitalization, Cindy’s nausea and vomiting resolved with rest and IV hydration. She was then discharged to home. Her oncologists were quite pessimistic regarding her options for treatment, all of which she declined, and offered her a prognosis of only 8 to 12 weeks with rapidly deteriorating quality of life.
She was admitted to CHIPSA for immunotherapy on May 2, 2006. Her bilirubins, total, direct, and indirect, were elevated at 1.4, 0.3, and 1.1 respectively, and her nausea had returned. She was started on a modified Gerson dietotherapy, and took 8 cycles of Coley’s mixed bacterial vaccine, PUVA-photopheresis with monocyte collection and culture, and transfusions of dendritic cells supported by intravenous GKI solutions. An autologous cancer-associated microbial vaccine (CAMV) was created and added to treatment during hospital week #4.
During treatments, Cindy experienced repeated copious discharges of clear mucus from her lungs which led to coughing, gagging and vomiting. Her emesis was occasionally simply clear mucus. Similarly, her enema discharge was frequently observed to have ropes of mucus as thick as a finger. She required frequent treatments for nausea during the entire hospitalization. Almost every coffee enema was accompanied by mucus discharge from her sinuses, lungs, stomach, and intestines. Periodically, she would vomit straw-yellow bile.
During her hospitalization, Cindy made every effort to eat and drink her juices, but it was a struggle all the way. She responded to immunization dramatically, with spiking fevers and even frank fasciculation of the right abdominal wall muscles overlying the known tumors. Despite her GI symptoms, she remained nonicteric, her skin pink and well perfused, and remarkably pain free.
On May 26, 2006, a high-definition ultrasound was conducted to compare with the original diagnostic US of April 17, 2006. Despite a lengthy effort, a distinct mass in the right liver lobe could not be visualized. The liver was slightly enlarged with slightly increased echogenecity. A CT scan was recommended for correlation.
Cindy was discharged to home on May 26, 2006, and continued intensive home treatment with dietotherapy, coffee enemas, Coley’s toxins, CAMV, and cryopreserved dendritic cells. She experienced intermittent, repeated bouts of coughing, gagging, vomiting, with sudden and often violent emesis after nearly every coffee enema.
On June 7, 2006, Cindy experienced her first really good day. Prior to that, a pattern of severe reactions had set in. Each day from her return home, her first carrot/apple juice would cause her to produce enormous quantities of phlegm from the sinuses and lungs with gagging and vomiting. A single green-leaf juice could result in up to 6 hours of mucus discharge with vomiting. These reactions had finally abated after more than a week at home. Even though the strong reaction had subsided, she experienced continued expulsion of mucus plugs and ropes up to 6 inches in length with nearly every enema.
Despite disruptions in nutrition, and concomitant rapid weight loss, Cindy’s energy continued to improve, and her reactions to Coley’s toxins and dendritic cells were robust. On June 11, 2006, she was able to attend church and was surrounded by people telling her how good she looked. By this time she had lost 33 lbs, from 213 on April 17, 2006, down to 180.
After a CT scan with contrast on June 15, 2006, Cindy became violently ill. These symptoms lasted for several days and had resolved by June 18, 2006. Her appetite had returned and she was enjoying yogurt with strawberries and honey 3 times daily in addition to juices, oatmeal and potatoes. She had no emesis at all on June 19, 2006. She continued with copious mucus discharge from the lungs, but no gagging or vomiting. She was sleeping through the night.
Despite the lull, during the week of the 25th of June, 2006, periodic bouts of nausea and vomiting occurred, especially in conjunction with coffee enemas given shortly after Coley’s toxins and dendritic cells. She was given supportive IV hydration and, per the recommendation of a hospice nurse and friend, started on prochlorperazine, which was remarkably effective almost instantly. Cindy’s quality of life improved greatly with control of her nausea and by July 13, 2006, she was able to eat, drink and exercise. Her son returned after a 3-week absence to remark that he was amazed at her increased energy. She told us that she loves toasted oats on her fruit, yogurt and honey, craves orange juice, and manages to get her pills and capsules by grinding them and stirring them into her applesauce. Lunch and dinner were vegetables and potato, or rice with fruit, and she was eating fruit in between meals.
During this time, Cindy said that she felt she was “turning the corner.” She reported much less mucus in the enemas, and felt less toxic and less urgent. She now knows when she needs a detoxifying coffee enema. A very good friend of hers, an RN who teaches at a local college, had arranged for a number of young RNs to help. Cindy related that the nurses told her, “We would never be allowed to give shots in these amounts, but the treatment is working.” Her weight loss had slowed by this time, and she was at a very comfortable 165 lbs, having lost 48 lbs from the beginning.
Thanks so much for all your love & prayers. Monday will be 3 months since Cindy was diagnosed with cancer & only given 3-4 months to live. On Monday we will be going to the beach with our friends & family. WE BELIEVE! Last night we went to some friends for a party & Cindy got in the pool & played a game with a beach ball for an hour hitting it up in the air with a group of people. She looks fantastic. Her energy level is building up each day. We are very blessed by our Lord as her healing is coming day by day. Her parents returned to Kansas on Tuesday they were a tremendous help during the hardest time. Thanks for the prayers we continue to need them.
Cindy and her husband spent the first several weeks of August 2006 vacationing on the beach. Their motor home was fully loaded with produce and the juicer. When they returned, they called to report that Cindy had forgotten to take her prochlorperazine for an entire week with no nausea and a wonderful appetite. They spent their days relaxing and playing. She continues to have periodic rough times in direct correlation with her immunizations, but much of her time is uncomplicated by complaints of any sort. Several recent emails demonstrate the degree of improvement she enjoys:
Cindy is doing great again. We were gone to the low desert all day & went to an organic restaurant & shopping. We visited for 4 hours with the owners of this large health food store named Clarks. They were very familiar with Gerson therapy but were blown away by Cindy's story.
Thanks,
Jerel
PS the reactions have returned to normal. Cindy only had 2 enemas yesterday because we ended up being gone much longer than we thought. She had fun yesterday.
There have been some amazing breakthroughs this week.
We went out for almost an entire day shopping eating at an organic restraunt (at Clarks in Rancho Mirage). But Cindy had only 2 enemas & felt great. She has not needed any nausea medicine this week. Also this is big. Her appetite is great & she has even been able to drink a green juice & said it was OK. Something else, We've been eating some spicy food which before we knew about the cancer she had to quit because it bothered her. It is like after the bad week after the vacation & the big reactions she has turned a corner. On Thurs when we were gone all day & ate out she said , "I almost forget I'm sick at all." So we've been doing 2 enemas a day now & she seems great with it. Before, she knew she needed it.
Thanks so much for all you are doing for us,
Very Blessed
Jerel
We Believe!
Update: February 16, 2007: We drove to Yucca Valley CA to visit Cindy and Jerel in their home. Cindy remains remarkably stable, with no respiratory distress and no supplemental oxygen. They had been entertaining over the weekend and iwell nto the week, and she acknowledged that she was tired from this. She remains free from icterus, and is eating and eliminating normally.Importantly, she was never operated, and has never been stented. She has now passed 10 months since the acute onset of symptoms, and has clearly lived well beyond her initial guarded prognosis of 8 to 12 weeks.
JD Barcik 35, Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, 6 cycles ABVD from May - October, 2004. Relapse February 2004. Refused high-dose chemotherapy with stem cell transplant to try alternatives.
In his own words
I am well now and here’s why: I followed the crowd into first line chemotherapy in June 2003. My influences were despair, fear and a loss of trust in my body’s ability to heal itself. Almost immediately after chemotherapy I relapsed. My second conventional treatment options were not good to put it mildly. Then I found Gar Hildenbrand and started listening to my “gut” only after a few conversations with him. Gar’s treatment comprehensively dealt with my sick body by way of science, logic and fact. Equally important he addressed how I felt. The latter being something my conventional treatment course both omitted and discounted. In the beginning, I was not convinced of anything. I decided however that I would believe that it was possible “to believe” in an alternative. I would describe this as a half step in the right direction. Immediately upon starting the program I began to change. I was trained and educated by the staff so I could be an effective part of my own treatment at home and guide those around me willing to help.Every time I looked backward, there was my team of exceptional people in Gar, Christeene and my family plus a very powerful treatment protocol. Finally I began to recognize, accept and commit to the many changes taking place in my body, life, environment etc.There is more that comes from this treatment than beating cancer. Gar and Christeene Hildenbrand understand recovery, healing and life better than anyone I’ve ever met or heard. In fact they have lived through disease and most importantly, communicate it clearly and brilliantly. I worked very hard and stayed focused, but was met with many challenges. Gar was there for me when I needed him. Over a year’s time the moments of disbelief, doubt and fear decreased and my confidence increased.I will never forget how much work it has been. I did not have the answers then that I do now. But it is possible. At this moment, I might be the healthiest person I know. Gar Hildenbrand gave me help, a path and continued to bridge me from then until now.I am well now and it is possible with Gar Hildenbrand Alternatives. To know it is possible, to know it can be done is power. For this I am very thankful. You can do this and I am available to you to confirm this testimonial.
Update March 2007: JD has since become successful in technology sales and has married a lovely woman by the name of Tatiana. They live and thrive in Florida.
from what i read about it, i really like the gerson therapy.
i like vegetable juicing in general. i just dont like juice 'fasting' and all that stuff. i am of the opinion people should incorporate healthy stuff simply in their daily regime for the rest of their lives. fasting always seems to imply a false quick-fix to me for people who are desperately trying to get healthy.
Fasting, such as is called for in the Brandt grape cure, is a good way to both rid the body of toxins and waste while also striking at the cancer.
Many people successfully beat cancer without fasting, but I personally would begin with a few days or so of something like the Brandt cure and then begin to incorporate a healthy diet and many other elements (for more detail, take a look at my post here "Modern Medicine versus Nature in Treating Cancer")
I am an Ayurveda Vaidyan from India, and healing leukemia. Please probe in to the genuineness of my claim. Also please help me get in association with a research institute in America so that this remedy may be benefitial to the entire humanity.
Pranavidhya, Marmatantra, and Ayurveda & Siddha Kayakalpa combined have been found significantly superior to all other treatment systems to heal leukemia. This Pure Healing can address all verities of blood cancers including AML, ALL, CML and CLL. Result is unique in patients of all ages. However the speed of recovery in children is amazing.
I am glad to participate in study program of molecular biology or cancer genetics of universities of advanced nations to see scientifically how this healing reinstates normal cell functioning, even in diseases that do not respond to any treatment currently available. They can research if Pure Healing stops translocation of genetic matter from human chromosome number 15 to 17, nipping the anomaly in the bud. They also can see whether this therapy acts selectively, inducing cell death in only the malignant cells and not affecting neighboring healthy cells at all.
It is my sincere request to international scientific community to focus on what can be done to expand the current research environment so that practices that lie outside conventional Science are appropriately addressed.
Rather than being redundant, I would suggest that you take a look at my other two recent posts here, including "Modern Medicine versus Nature in Treating Cancer" and the one under the "tumor recurrence" topic.
I would point out that one of the earliest uses and successes of an aqueous Oleander extract was use in treating leukemia by the patent holder for Anvirzel, Doctor H. Z. Ozel, in Turkey.
I would also point out that, according to the present manufacturer of Anvirzel, oleander extract has been shown to either eliminate or greatly lessen all known side effects of chemo when used as a complementary treatment.
Don't blame your doctors - they only practice what they have been taught (and they are forced by the AMA and FDA to toe a very strict line in what they say and do). Sadly, what they have been taught includes little to nothing about nutrition, natural remedies and treatments, removing toxins, healthy lifestyle choices and ways to treat the underlying causes of cancer and illness instead of addressing the parts of the body where the symptoms appear.
This is probably the only center in the world where you get a full recovery from leukemia with out side effects.

Thank you for your input with regards to the Ayurveda treatment. I am very interested in this as i take dabur chyawanprash everyday, and it has improved my health dramatically. The thing is is that i would need to convince him to try a natural treatment i need more info and proof that is is safe and is beneficial towards correcting AML. I am also in Australia so i cannot help you with contacts in america. perhaps you could email me more details. I have allowed emails in options
You may look into adding acai juice (and its relevance to leukemia in particular) into your friends nutritional arsenal based off preliminary research done by the University of Florida. The following is an excerpt taken from Pubmed --------------- Açai (Euterpe oleracea Mart.) polyphenolics in their glycoside and aglycone forms induce apoptosis of HL-60 leukemia cells. Del Pozo-Insfran D, Percival SS, Talcott ST.
Department of Food Science and Human Nutrition, University of Florida, P.O. Box 110370, Gainesville, Florida 32611-0370, USA.
The effects of açai polyphenolics on the antiproliferation and induction of apoptosis in HL-60 human leukemia cells were investigated. Interactions between anthocyanins and non-anthocyanin-polyphenolics in both their glycosidic and their aglycone forms were also investigated to determine additive or nonadditive responses. Polyphenolic fractions at 0.17-10.7 microM were found to reduce cell proliferation from 56 to 86% likely due to caspase-3 activation (apoptosis). Anthocyanin and polyphenolic fractions were nonadditive in their contribution to the cell antiproliferation activity. At equimolar concentrations, the glycosidic forms of phenolic acids and flavonoids induced a higher magnitude of change in cell parameters (proliferation and apoptosis) than their respective aglycone forms, while the opposite trend was observed for anthocyanin aglycones. This study demonstrated that açai offers a rich source of bioactive polyphenolics and confirmed the importance of investigating whole food systems when evaluating the potential health benefits of individual phytochemical compounds.
