Questioning Chemotherapy : A Critique of the Use of Toxic Drugs in the
Treatment of Cancer by Ralph W. Moss Ph.D.
Ralph W. Moss, Ph.D. - "Conventional cancer therapy is so toxic and
dehumanizing that I fear it far more than I fear death from cancer. We

know

that conventional therapy doesn't work--if it did, you would not fear

cancer

any more than you fear pneumonia. It is the utter lack of certainty as to
the outcome of conventional treatment that virtually screams for more
freedom of choice in the area of cancer therapy. Yet most alternative
therapies regardless of potential or proven benefit, are outlawed, which
forces patients to submit to the failures that we know don't work, because
there's no other choice. I started as a believer in chemotherapy. As a
science writer at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York, I
wrote articles praising the latest advances in chemotherapy. Because
chemotherapy drugs were general cellular poisons, they could be terribly
toxic. They were also very expensive for patients and for society as a
whole. When I learned about the links between the pharmaceutical industry
and the cancer establishment (later detailed in my book, The Cancer
Industry) I understood the commercial reason that such an inadequate
modality was so heavily promoted." Considering Chemo? --- Death by

Doctoring

Dr. Hardin Jones, professor of medical physics and physiology at the
University of California, Berkeley. He told an ACS panel, "My studies have
proven conclusively that untreated cancer victims actually live up to four
times longer than treated individuals. For a typical type of cancer,

people

who refused treatment lived for an average of 12-1/2 years. Those who
accepted surgery other kinds of treatment lived an average of only three
years. . . . I attribute this to the traumatic effect of surgery on the
body's natural defense mechanism. The body has a natural defense against
every type of cancer." G. Borell, The Peroxide Story (Delano, Minnesota:
ECHO, 1988), page 30. - Dr. Hardin Jones is a professor of medical physics
and physiology at the University of California, Berkeley.

The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) says
that the powerful drugs used in chemotherapy can themselves cause cancer

and

pose a risk to nurses, pharmacists and others who handle them. A

housekeeper

who dumps the contents of a bedpan into a toilet might not realize that

the

waste is toxic. "Sometimes, 80 percent of the active ingredient [in a

drug]

goes right through the patient's system," said Borwegen, who also served

on

the NIOSH work group. More - What if the Cure is Also a Cause?

William Campbell Douglass II, MD - "To understand the utter hypocrisy

of

chemotherapy, consider the following: The McGill Cancer Center in Canada,
one of the largest and most prestigious cancer treatment centers in the
world, did a study of oncologists to determine how they would respond to a
diagnosis of cancer. On the confidential questionnaire, 58 out of 64

doctors

said that all chemotherapy programs were unacceptable to them and their
family members. The overriding reason for this decision was that the drugs
are ineffective and have an unacceptable degree of toxicity. These are the
same doctors who will tell you that their chemotherapy treatments will
shrink your tumor and prolong your life! Thirty years ago, I worked with a
radiologist who told me this: "If I get cancer, I'm going to Mexico." So

if

you get cancer, don't call your doctor; call your travel agent. There are
alternative treatments available, but you will have to run the gamut of
outraged chemotherapists, radiologists, and surgeons to find one. They

will

use cajolery, insults, fear, threats ("If you do this, I am off the

case"),

and misrepresentation to dissuade you." more

In her book, 'Managing the Side Effects of Chemotherapy and Radiation
Therapy', Marylin J.Dodd, RN, PhD, describes side effects associated with
radiation therapy. Dr. Dodd has 25 years of research experience helping
patients and their families manage the side effects of cancer treatment.

School of Nursing.

Overcoming Immunosuppression from Chemotherapy - Cancer patients who

are

undergoing chemotherapy or radiation which greatly weaken the immune

system,

can greatly benefit from taking transfer factor supplementation. Transfer
factor supplementation serves to protect the body from "opportunistic"
infections, which often occur during these treatments. Dr Duane Townsend,
former director of gynecologic oncology at LDS Hospital in Salt Lake City,
puts all of his cancer patients on transfer factor treatments to boost

their

immune systems' abilities to respond to any health challenges. Both

Japanese

and Chinese clinical studies found that the immunosuppression that results
from chemotherapy can be prevented by using transfer factor isolates. Keep
in mind that the elimination of dying or dead cancer cells is monitored by
the immune system. Italian, Japanese and American studies tell us that the
use of transfer factor isolates to boost immune function after surgery
significantly improves the chances of cancer-free future. More about
Transfer Factor
Scientists in China have also shown that a spirulina extract increased
the level of white cells in the blood and of nucleated cells and DNA in

the

bone marrow of mice that had been subjected to chemotherapy and radiation.
In dogs, the spirulina extract additionally increased the level of red

blood

cells. The authors concluded that spirulina "has chemo-protective and
radio-protective capability, and may be a potential adjunct to cancer
therapy." CancerDecisions

In memory of our son, Alexander Horwin On August 10, 1998 at age two,
our son Alexander Horwin was diagnosed with the most common pediatric

brain

tumor, medulloblastoma. After Alexander endured two brain surgeries my
husband and I located the best non-toxic therapy that had proven

successful

in treating brain cancer. However, on September 21, 1998, the FDA denied
Alexander access to this potentially life-saving treatment. The

oncologists

told us that without their "state-of-the-art" chemotherapy, the cancer

would

soon return. We knew nothing of the history, efficacy and actual danger of
chemotherapy but instinctively knew it was a poor choice for therapy.
Alexander completed his third month of chemotherapy in December 1998 and
died on January 31, 1999. He was just two and a half years old.
The "state-of-the-art" chemo protocol that the oncologists had
administered to our son had proven its ineffectiveness in pediatric brain
tumors many years before. In fact, in 1994, the exact same chemo drugs
Alexander received in 1998 had been administered to children the same age
with the same brain tumor (medulloblastoma) as Alexander. This experiment
proved so unsuccessful that tumors spread within five months and the
oncologists terminated the protocol. It was incredible to us to discover
that chemotherapy that had already proven so ineffective that it required
termination was being presented to parents as "state of the art" years
later.

We were never informed about the failure of this therapy. We also
discovered that we weren't the only parents being purposefully

misinformed.

Today, parents are still being misled and children with brain cancer are
still getting these same toxic drugs that have proven their

ineffectiveness

in the past. But even if you are informed that orthodox therapy does not
work you still may not have a choice. When we hesitated to bring Alexander
in for chemo the oncologists were already gearing up to take him from us

Surgery Not A Cure For Cancer
Based on the writngs of Dr Eli G Jones, MD - Definite Medication:
Containing Therapeutic Facts Gleaned from Forty Years Practice
Dr.Waslsh, in his able work on cancers, says: "The knife can neither

be

regarded as a means of curing cancer or pronologing the exixtence of the
person afficted with the disease."

Dr.Thomas W.Cooke, Surgeon of the Cancer Hospital, London, England ,
Says: " From 1851 to 1863 there were 413 cases of cancer operated on at

the

Cancer Hospital, London,England. The everage time before the cancer

returned

was only 6 1/2 months." (Read the other doctor's comments)

Is Cancer Curable In Homeopathy ?
Cancer like other diseases is curable in Homeopathy. Why and how ? To
understand this, one has to understand the basic principle of homeopathy.
According to the principle of cure in Homeopathy, there is nothing that is
incurable provided there is sufficient energy 'Vital Force' in the patient
at the time of taking to or restorting to homeopathic treatment. According
to homeopathic scientists, without the cause, there cannot be a disease.

So

the cause should be traced. If we find out the root of the disease than
there must be a medicine for it. more

Natural healing can cure the medically-incurable - Dr. Schulze

"I highly suggest for anyone who has been diagnosed as incurable or
hopeless to throw out the diagnosis. Whether you are new to natural

healing

or have years of natural healing knowledge, this 30-day program can save
your life. I used this very program in my clinic for people who had been
written off as hopeless by other doctor's and health professionals. This
program is intense and it works! "You will get out of it what you put into
it. You can either wait for someone to do it for you and hold your hand

and

that won't be me or you can jump in and give 110% and take responsibility
for you health and healing. Nothing less will do." Dr. Schulze
