Often, we are told of the safety and effectiveness of modern medicine’s methods and treatment techniques. We are told that a certain drug has been thoroughly tested and confirmed to be “safe” for human use. We are told that a certain treatment method has a such-and-such percentage of success. We are told that chemotherapy is a “proven” treatment, with a “proven” track record, with “proven” success rates, and is “proven” to lengthen life.
Yet, how much of these assertions or claims are actually true? (more…)
Many people turn to natural and herbal remedies for many minor ailments - headaches, itchy skin, tummy upsets and what not. But when it comes to a serious ailment like cancer, most people freeze.
Yes, it is extremely difficult to walk away from the conventional medical system and conventional cancer treatment. To walk away from prestigious and high-tech hospitals; established and qualified medical doctors and specialists with a long list of credentials; doctors, nurses and other persons of authority dressed in robes; and what is supposedly “proven”.

Have you ever heard of German New Medicine, or GNM for short? I hadn’t, until I recently conversed with a lady who fully recovered from ovarian cancer and peritoneal tumors using this system of healing.
Basically, based on my limited understanding, GNM is a healing protocol based on the fundamental assumption that disease has its root in emotional issues, in other words, that all diseases originate from unexpected shock experiences. (more…)

Conventional cancer treatment or therapy - either word is highly misleading regarding its effectiveness and safety - is woefully ineffectively and frightfully dangerous.
There are literally countless adverse and side effects of chemotherapy, radiation, cancer drugs and even surgery. Hair loss, nausea, organ failure, even death. Now, we can add bone loss to the list, too. (more…)

Cancer, without doubt, is a much feared and potentially debilitating disease. Often, cancer sufferers, especially those who undergo conventional cancer treatment, are, sadly, scarred for life.
And a recent study conducted by researchers from the Coronel Institute of Occupational Health, Academic Medical Center in Amsterdam has revealed that survivors of the disease experience more difficulty finding or staying in jobs, as compared to those who have never had the ailment. (more…)

Would you allow a car mechanic who does not know how, or does not dare, to fix his own car, to fix yours?
Would you dare to live a house whereby the person who constructed it did not feel it safe enough to step into? (more…)
I have been seeing some stories lately about how colonoscopy is only effective for detecting cancer in the left side of the colon (i.e. the descending colon), and not the right side of it (i.e. the ascending colon).
What really alarms me is how I have seen several headlines which go ‘colonoscopies only prevents X% of colon cancer’, or something along those lines. (more…)

A study has suggested that almost 600,000 out of the 1.6 million women who undergo breast biopsies are in fact going through unnecessary surgical procedures.
This was stated in an article on kdka.com, which was reporting on what was on CBS News. (more…)

Conventional medicine, or, as it is called in the present day, allopathic medicine, had, many decades ago, declared a “war on cancer”. It has been so many years, yet, nothing very much has changed - the savage methods of surgery (cutting), radiation (burning) and chemotherapy (poisoning) are still widely used.
What has changed, is that the rates of people getting cancer are increasing all the time, and the number of people dying from the disease is climbing too. (climbing, or flying?) (more…)

With the effectiveness and safety of mammograms coming into question, and even coming under fire, the next issue becomes – what is the alternative for women to turn to? The answer could be thermograms.
Thermograms use heat which radiates from one’s own body to detect problems in the breast, and involve a combination of advanced digital technology as well as ultra-sensitive infrared camera imaging. (more…)
I cringe when I read about long lines of women queuing up to have their annual mammograms. I cringe even more when I read about how they are doing this in a bid to “prevent cancer”, or to attempt to lower their chances of succumbing to the disease.
Soon, all that cringing turns to anger, as it often does when it comes to many aspects of conventional medicine. (more…)
Do conventional diagnostic procedures like X-rays and mammograms actually do their part in causing cancer? Does conventional cancer treatment meddle with cancerous conditions which otherwise might have been successfully dealt with via the body’s own defence mechanisms, without the need for invasive intervention?
My own gut feel to both questions has always been yes, and yes. Now, recent research in Norway seems to indicate so, too. (more…)
Most of the time, I am a harsh critic of many areas of conventional medicine, and in particular, conventional cancer treatment. In fact, how it can pass off as “treatment”, I have no idea.
Bottom line – conventional cancer therapy only concentrates on the tumor. In doing so, it is dealing with the wrong thing, and that explains, in large part, its woeful results. (more…)
