Doctor's Article: Cancer Industry Fights To Maintain Control
by Dr. Joseph Mercola
What's wrong with the entire system? Ignoring the fact that cancer is likely a man-made disease caused primarily by toxic overload.
Just a few months ago, I wrote about a fascinating study into ancient mummies that determined cancer is not a “natural” disease at all, and genetics are not a primary factor. Tumors were extremely rare until recent times, when pollution and poor diet became issues. So why are the medical and science communities, by and large, ignoring these basics?
I strongly believe the cancer rates are escalating because they are in no way shape or form addressing the underlying cause of most cancers. Instead, most of the research is directed towards expensive drugs that target late stages of the disease and greatly enrich the drug companies but simply do not prevent cancer.
If ever there was an area in which an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure it is cancer. I strongly believe that if you are able to work your way up to the advanced health plan, that you will virtually eliminate the risk of most cancers.
Environmental – and lifestyle factors are increasingly being pinpointed as the primary culprits fueling our cancer epidemic. This includes:
Pesticide- and other chemical exposures
Processed and artificial foods (plus the chemicals in the packaging)
Wireless technologies, dirty electricity, and medical diagnostic radiation exposure
Pharmaceutical drugs, Obesity, stress, and poor sleeping habits
Top Herbs For Overall Health
I'll most likely miss some since I had to dig through a pile of notes, but hopefully someone will fill in the blanks. These are herbs you can make a part of your everyday diet as a preventative medicine and overall health regimen.
I had close to 20 but could only find the following. I'll keep looking and adding
HERB-LIST
- Shilagit: maintain healthy blood sugar levels, general physical strengthening, anti-aging, promoting healthy brain function and bone healing, organ rejuvenation (kidneys and spleen specifically), and lowering hypertension. In Sanskrit, Shilajit is defined as “conqueror of mountains and destroyer of weakness.”
- Tulsi: Antioxidant, Restorative, Relieves stress/adaptogen, Bolsters immunity, Enhances stamina, Provides support during cold season, Promotes healthy metabolism, A natural immuno-modulator
- Shatavari: impotency, infertility, menopause, diarrhea, dysentery, gastric problems, coughing and headache problems, and gonorrhea (my interest is mainly it’s effect on connective tissues, like those that support the organs)
- Turmeric: (curcuma longa or simply curcumin), Indigestion or dyspepsia, overall digestion disorders, liver problems, skin diseases, infections, some cancers, inflammation, bile flow, gall bladder
- Brahmi: heightening mental acuity and supports the physiological processes involved in relaxation, main rejuvenating herb for nerve and brain cells, cognitive disorders of aging
- Neem: Candida (candida albicans fungus), fungus, reduce tumors, chronic fatigue, immune response at cellular level, pain and inflammation (prostaglandin mechanism), rheumatism, arthritis, diabetes, overall immune system functions, overall skin problems
INTRAVENOUS VITAMIN C AS CANCER THERAPY:
Free Access to Twenty-One Expert Video Lectures Online
(OMNS Apr 14, 2011) Scientists have long studied the effects of mega-doses of vitamin C to treat a wide variety of illnesses and diseases. Research documents vitamin C as one of the best antiviral agents available. Vitamin C has been shown to neutralize and eliminate a wide range of toxins, and to enhance host resistance, greatly augmenting the immune system's ability to neutralize bacterial and fungal infections. Most importantly, there is extensive published research demonstrating vitamin C's anti-cancer properties.
In the 1970s, Hugh D. Riordan, M.D. and colleagues began studying the underlying causes of cancer and ways to treat cancer in a non-toxic fashion. From this research came the Riordan Intravenous Vitamin C Protocol for Cancer. This protocol is widely recognized in the integrative and orthomolecular medicine community and is commonly used as an effective adjunct to conventional oncologic therapy.
Oncologist Victor Marcial, M.D., has experience using it. He says: “We studied patients with advanced cancer (stage 4). 40 patients received 40,000-75,000 mg intravenously several times a week. . . In addition, they received a diet and other supplements. The initial tumor response rate was achieved in 75% of patients, defined as a 50% reduction or more in tumor size. . . As a radiation oncologist, I also give radiation therapy. Vitamin C has two effects. It increases the beneficial effects of radiation and chemotherapy and decreases the adverse effects. But this is not a subtle effect, is not 15-20%, it’s a dramatic effect. Once you start using IV vitamin C, the effect is so dramatic that it is difficult to go back to not using it.”
In 2009 and 2010, Riordan IV- C and Cancer Symposiums brought together medical professionals, researchers and IV- C practitioners from the United States and abroad. The latest advancements in intravenous vitamin C cancer therapy were presented in detail, recorded on video, and are now available for free access at riordanclinic.org/education/symposium/2009 (twelve lectures) and www.riordanclinic.org/education/symposium/2010 (nine lectures)
OMNS readers are urged to have their physicians (especially oncologists) watch these important presentations.

Chlorella will help your body eliminate unwanted metals and toxins
I've been using Clorella, or Spirulina, for about 8 years now. I have absolutely no problem recommending it to anyone. There are no bad side effects. It's just food. Some use the term Superfood. Well, it's super enough for me to keep using it.
I use GREENS Plus ™ which is a 100% natural blend of 29 nutrient-rich Superfoods, Sea Vegetables and High-Energy Herbal Extracts. Or I get Clorella or Spirulina by itself - there are a lot of places to get them - but read the label. You don't want to eat anything grown using pesticides and herbicides. That would kind of defeat the whole purpose.
I want add this about water. I've been meaning to do this for a while now. Since the facts about fluoride have come to light I've been drinking distilled or otherwise purified water. The problem with doing this is that these waters lack the good stuff as well as the bad stuff. I've been looking for ways to re-mineralize water, but I have no complete answers. I've looked at products like alkalife and other minerals for water which I could add. But like I said I'm not really up to suggesting anything. I just wanted to put it out there that pure water will bond to (absorb) any minerals from it's environment.
Anyway, here are some facts about single-celled micro-algae (Chlorella) used as a detoxifying Superfood:
Chlorella is a "green food", a single-celled, micro-algae. It's a useful detoxification tool. Its molecular structure allows it to bond to metals, chemicals and some pesticides.
Chlorella binds to lingering heavy metals, chemicals and pesticides found in your digestive tract which is the body's pathway to the bloodstream through which toxins are delivered and deposited into your body's cells.
Chlorella will not bind to the minerals your body naturally needs. It does not bind to minerals like calcium, magnesium, or zinc.
Chlorella has been the subject of medical research in the USA, USSR, Germany, Japan, France, England and Israel. Chlorella has been studied as a food source since it is made up of 50 percent protein and is considered a complete amino acid-based food.
Studies in Japan show chlorella may help reduce body fat percentage and may be useful in fighting obesity and weight related diabetes. It may also help reduce both cholesterol and hypertension.
Chlorella cleanses your bowel and elimination processes, adds protection of your liver and helps promote clean blood. Healthy blood helps assure metabolic waste get efficiently carried away from your tissues.
Chlorella is rich in chlorophyll, which is known to:
- Aid you in processing more oxygen
- Cleanse key elimination systems like your bowel, liver, and blood
- Help purify your blood and clean away toxins
- Aid you in promoting optimal blood pressure
- Support elimination of molds in your body
- Help neutralize bad air you might breathe in
- Promote growth and repair of your tissues
Chlorella: beyond detoxification:
- Boosting your immune system
- Improving your digestion, especially if constipation is a problem
- Provide B vitamins from an animal source
- Enhancing your ability to focus and concentrate
- Increasing your energy levels
- Balancing your body's pH
- Normalizing your blood sugar and blood pressure
- Reducing your cancer risk
- Freshening your breath
