It\u00a0has been becoming increasingly\u00a0apparent in recent years that there are a number of alternative cancer treatment methods which have proven to\u00a0either eradicate cancer cells on their own, or even assist with\u00a0the more\u00a0traditional methods of\u00a0chemotherapy and radiation. Many of these alternative treatments do not get the recognition that they deserve from either mainstream media or mainstream medicine. In fact, in many states alternative cancer treatments have been\u00a0banned or made illegal and, according to the law, one can even be forced to undergo chemotherapy against one\u2019s will. It is important to note, however, that choosing one of these natural, alternative cancer treatments does require you to do a lot of research, because there is very little funding, or merit, allotted to their study. The cancer industry does not want to look at these alternative methods and spends very little of their funds informing people about preventative medicine. In fact, one\u00a0particular vitamin that is believed to be extremely beneficial in fighting cancer cells has actually been\u00a0banned by the FDA and is illegal for treatment in the United States, and that is Laetrile.<\/p>\n
Amygdalin contains glucose, benzaldehyde, and cyanide, and it is the latter\u00a0which is\u00a0believed to be the active cancer-fighting ingredient of Laetrile. It is important to note, however, that cyanide is actually toxic to all cells, which makes the overall toxicity of Laetrile a concern. Yet\u00a0studies<\/a>\u00a0suggest that Laetrile is more toxic to cancer cells than to normal cells. After all, your chances of getting cyanide poisoning from apple seeds or almonds are extremely slim, and we mustn\u2019t forget that cancer is toxic to begin with. (And the\u00a0last time I checked, so are\u00a0chemotherapy and radiation.)<\/p>\n Question:\u00a0\u201cIf B17 is so powerful and helpful towards cancer elimination, then why is it not prescribed by modern physicians as a treatment?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n Simple Answer:\u00a0\u201cA control for cancer is known, and it comes from nature, but it is not widely available to the public because it cannot be patented, and therefore is not commercially attractive to the pharmaceutical industry.\u201d\u2028 \u2014 G. Edward Griffin.<\/em><\/p>\n Dr. Kanematsu Suigura spent the majority of his career at the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and has authored more than 250 papers; he has also received numerous awards, one of which included the highest honors from the Japan Medical Association for outstanding contributions in cancer research. He specifically studied Laetrile and discovered that it showed very\u00a0positive results with\u00a0preventing malignant lung tumors in laboratory mice. In control groups which received only plain saline, the lung tumors spread to between 80 and 90 percent of the mice, but in those given Laetrile, the tumors only spread to\u00a0between 10 and 20 percent.<\/p>\n By 1974 findings for Laetrile\u2019s cancer fighting properties were so positive that the Sloan Kettering Cancer Center had signed off on clinical trials \u2014 but then everything changed. The center started to get other scientists to perform the experiments involving Laetrile and whenever an experiment showed the possibility of a positive outcome, the research was completely scrapped and disregarded. Other scientists working at Sloan Kettering who had previously been on board with the cancer-fighting properties of Laetrile started to characterize these studies, and Sugiura himself, as fraudulent, even though nothing scientifically had changed to negate Sugiura\u2019s findings.<\/p>\n Ralph Moss was a friend and colleague of Dr. Sugiura\u2019s and was well informed about his\u00a0findings\u00a0in regards to Laetrile. When things started to go downhill, Moss found himself\u00a0stuck in a moral dilemma: he could lie to support his employer, Sloan Kettering, or tell the truth about Laetrile and sacrifice his job. In the end, Moss chose to tell the truth and came clean at a press conference that was held in July of 1977. This ended up being his final day as an employee of\u00a0the Sloan Kettering foundation.<\/p>\n According to Ralph Moss, the Laetrile cover-up really only makes sense when viewed through the lens of \u201cthe politics of cancer.\u201d\u00a0According to Moss<\/a>:\u00a0\u201cThe people\u00a0on Sloan Kettering\u2019s Board of Directors were a \u2018Who\u2019s Who\u2019 of investors in petrochemical and other polluting industries. In other words, the hospital was being run by people who made their wealth by investing in the worst cancer-causing things on the planet.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n This is only part of the story. To read the whole thing, click\u00a0here<\/a>.<\/p>\n Even though Laetrile is not an FDA-approved cancer treatment,\u00a0there are doctors who are choosing to use it \u2018illegally,\u2019 like John A. Richardson. He has been treating cancer patients at his clinic in San Francisco, California and it has been working a whole lot better than the traditional methods of treatment. His numerous success stories are documented in his book,\u00a0Laetrile Case Histories: The Richardson Cancer Clinic Experience.<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n The FDA considers Laetrile an unapproved form of cancer treatment and it is illegal for a practitioner to administer. As a result of these regulations, you cannot buy Laetrile in the United States, although you can buy Vitamin B17\/amygdalin in supplement form. Apricots themselves are not illegal, of course, so you can always\u00a0gather their seeds on your own, though this is immensely time consuming. If you do choose this course of action, be aware that you are doing it at your own discretion.\u00a0Because I am not a doctor and cannot give out medical advice, I highly suggest that you find a doctor who practices alternative medicine and who\u00a0can best direct you on how\u00a0to properly use this treatment.<\/p>\n Here\u2019s to the truth and health!<\/p>\n Much Love<\/p>\n By\u00a0Alanna Ketler<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" It\u00a0has been becoming increasingly\u00a0apparent in recent years that there are a number of alternative cancer treatment methods which have proven to\u00a0either eradicate cancer cells on their own, or even assist with\u00a0the more\u00a0traditional methods of\u00a0chemotherapy and radiation.
