Every cancer patient asks the same question: "Why is medicine powerless in the fight against cancer?" And no doctor can answer this question. The whole world understands that treating cancer with chemotherapy, radiation and suppression of symptoms is a global mistake of modern medicine. Such treatment has been brought to the point of absurdity and needs a complete revision, as it leads to a reduction in the life and death of patients. Nevertheless, ready-made treatment protocols containing fundamental errors are protected by law and create a legal press for physicians using natural, logical, harmless, physiological methods of treatment. Medicine continues to search for drugs to fight cancer, improve devices for irradiating tumors, and so on. All this brings oncology to a dead end, since after traumatic treatment, no organism is able to return to a state of self-regulation. And none synthesized medicinal product against cancer and no surgeon can ever replace the most complex and perfect system of self-regulation, self-control and self-healing of the body.
Everyone who has undergone treatment in oncological dispensaries experiences complete disappointment, severe stress and pain.
Unfortunately, the treatment of cancer patients in advanced cases, with a very severe course of the disease, as well as in old age, does not give a complete recovery. Despite this, you can live with this disease, control your condition and even completely recover from this serious ailment in 3-12 months.
Our specialists accompany patients during further treatment until recovery.
We hope that these materials will be interesting and in demand by practitioners and medical workers of various specializations, and patients will find in them comprehensive answers to questions that arise during treatment.
The scheme of the development of the pathological process according to Reckeweg
The diagram shows that stage VI of the development of pathological processes as a result of exposure to various stress factors leads to the destruction of self-regulation mechanisms and the appearance of cancer. As a result of insufficient drainage and the accumulation of toxins and toxins in tissues, the body loses control over billions of chemical reactions, new metabolic pathways appear that are unusual for these tissues, organs, cells. In this situation, the body produces large amounts of serotonin, the main regulatory neurotransmitter. Serotonin, in turn, is synthesized from the amino acid tryptophan. Tryptophan is also used to synthesize antioxidants that neutralize toxins in body tissues. Thus, tryptophan reserves are quickly depleted when the body is "slagged". Tryptophan is not synthesized, but comes exclusively from food, being an essential amino acid.
Each cell produces a number of highly acidic by-products of its chemical reactions. Drainage mechanisms in slagged tissues work very poorly, the tissue acidifies (the norm is an alkaline reaction). In the center of acidic pH, DNA synthesis is disrupted - the basis of the life of each cell, containing detailed plans for the action of a particular tissue and organ as a whole. There is a DNA repair system in our body, discovered by Claude Halek in 1985. This enzyme, consisting of lysine-tryptophan-lysine, cuts the defective DNA into pieces and glues these pieces together in a new way, correcting the error. Lack of tryptophan has a negative impact on the quality control mechanisms of the DNA reproduction process. When “defective” cells accumulate, they must be recognized and destroyed by the immune system. But the cells of the immune system are powerless in the acidic environment of this tissue. As a result of disruption of DNA, nutrition and respiration of these cells in the "slagged tissue", they acquire the ability to obtain energy from glucose in an oxygen-free way, which leads them to an acute energy deficiency and the transformation of protein kinase C into protein kinase M - an uncontrolled enzyme that stimulates cell reproduction, regardless of any spatial boundaries. Such cells become primitive and out of control of self-regulation. On the other hand, under these conditions, a large amount of histamine is produced, a neurotransmitter that distributes water in the body. In turn, histamine promotes the production of vasopressin, leading to cramping blood vessels... The process of degeneration of cells trapped in anaerobic conditions acidic environment, becomes an avalanche. The reproductive patterns of these cells are uncontrollable!
Histamine also suppresses the function of the immune system by stimulating suppressive white blood cells (suppressing the activity bone marrow).
Vasopressin stimulates the cortisone-releasing factor (CREF), and cortisone increases the production of interleukin 1. Interleukin 1 accelerates the breakdown of tissue to release protein material (primarily tryptophan). Cortisone interferes with the production of interleukin 2 and interferon, which are the first line of defense against infections and cancer cells. (Interferon initiates the release of ozone and hydrogen peroxide, which kill bacteria, fungi, and cancer cells.)
The growth of a tumor and the involvement of cells of other organs and tissues in this process (metastasis) is due to the fact that proteolytic enzymes of many cells lead to the dominance of cell decay and degeneration. Cell membrane receptors are less and less synthesized and do not accept physiological commands from the body.
Pain is one of the most undesirable and severe symptoms of cancer. This is a consequence of the acidic environment (nerve receptors transmit signals to pain centers) in the affected organ and tryptophan deficiency. An important function of tryptophan is a significant increase in the pain threshold, and its lack leads to the development of severe, debilitating pain.
The multisystem dysfunction of the entire physiology of the body looks like this:
DNA damage in the cell nucleus
Suppression of the DNA repair system up to complete cessation
Abnormalities and impaired synthesis of cell receptors and complete disruption of hormonal balance
General suppression of the immune system, even at the bone marrow level, leading to an inability to recognize and destroy "diseased" cells
Acidification of the environment and depletion of tryptophan, leading to severe pain
Cancer and malignant tumor treatment
People consider cancer to be an incurable disease, and medicine is useless in this respect. Simply put, for many, the word "cancer" sounds like a death knell.
So, the diagnosis is cancer. The person is scared, in oncology they know how to do it. Oncologists shout: "Don't go anywhere, we will do everything, cancer is treated!"
Further, the procedures are standard: surgery (what can be cut out - cut out), a beam gun, chemotherapy. Moreover, the procedures are not cheap. The result is that there is no immunity, the kidneys are destroyed, and the liver too. The person weakens, eats almost nothing. Doctors: “What did you want? Cancer! Take the documents in your hands, we can't help you with anything else. "
Behind the torment, passed Auschwitz, and voluntarily and for a lot of money. And only now the patient and relatives begin to search alternative treatment... And time was lost, irreparable damage to vital organs was caused, they were destroyed by rays and chemistry. Unfortunately, it is often impossible to help many people.
Or, as a continuation. For example, a person has cancer of the tongue, healed, the rays burned the thyroid gland, which produces tumor necrosis factor and participates in the subtle mechanisms of human defense systems. After many chemotherapy kidneys fail. Other problems developed. Seeing the uselessness of orthodox medicine, a person is treated for cancer himself using alternative methods. Cancer wins, but weakens, and it goes to death. Oncologists: "We told you you need to be treated, but you took all the nonsense!"
Cancer theories are relegated to the field of genetics, where no one can look, neither the doctor nor the common man. We have to take our word for it. Meanwhile, the human genome has not even been fully deciphered. I, like Simoncini, do not believe that genetics is the cause of cancer.
Doctors know very well that all cancer research is one big failure. Know that research is a lie. It's time to admit that nothing has been achieved in a hundred years. Vice versa. The truth is that the number of people who live well thanks to cancer is greater than the number of people who die from cancer.
This situation is very beneficial to many. And this is no coincidence. The system pushes and chases doctors who don't follow the rules.
The big secret does not need to be hidden too much, most people simply will not believe it.
The immune system is the key to recovery! She needs to be helped, not hindered. We can see a well-planned war against human immunity.
I would like this information about cancer treatment to be received in the early stages, before the decision is made to do gamma rays and chemistry. The effectiveness of treatment is an ambiguous question, much depends on how developed the disease is, what health indicators are now.
In some cases, there is no hope of complete healing. But you can try to stop the development of the tumor. Do not torture, cut, irradiate. The process can be held, removed or minimized pain. And when the time comes to die - to die as a man.
About operations. Surgical intervention causes tumor stem cells to enter the bloodstream and lymph flow, provoking tumors in new parts of the body. Oncosurgery has not made a revolution in the treatment of cancer, since this disease is systemic.
The less your body is damaged by radiation and chemotherapy, the more chances we have.
Studies say that 18 x x-rays of one site can cause radiation sickness and permanent damage. Do not rush to make a ray cannon - you will be burned and fried. There, the doses are tens of thousands of times higher than the X-ray dose. The beam cannon personnel are shot out of the room where the cannon is located. Gamma rays themselves cause cancer. An example is Hiroshima. A lot of people have already received severe burns of internal organs, adhesions, pains and additional problems.
Do not rush to do chemistry - you will be poisoned, all vital organs will be affected. It is possible to defeat cancer, but due to the damage caused by rays and chemistry, you may not survive. You live while your kidneys are working! After a few chemotherapy sessions, they stop working. And then - a person will die without cancer, very quickly.
It is not true that there is no alternative for the treatment of cancer and tumors, it is.
Cancer and malignant tumor symptoms
Cancer often develops against the background of existing chronic diseases. Some of them are called precancerous. Many diseases are considered precancerous, including:
... stomach cancer - polyposis, hypoacid (low acidity) gastritis, peptic ulcer;
... colon and rectal cancer - chronic. ulcerative colitis or proctitis, polyposis;
... breast cancer - mastopathy;
... thyroid cancer - nodular goiter;
... liver cancer - chronic viral hepatitis B or C;
... cancer Bladder- villous polyps;
... lung cancer - hr. tuberculosis;
... cervical cancer - erosion and dysplasia.
The main sign of the transition of the disease to cancer is a change in the nature of sensations already known to the patient earlier. A patient who has noticed a change should see a doctor. In the presence of a malignant tumor, the following symptoms are observed:
General weakness. Fatigue occurs when doing daily work, at work and at home. General weakness is caused by tumor intoxication - constant poisoning of the body with the waste products of cancer cells: the larger the tumor, the stronger the intoxication. In the results of a clinical blood test, you can see a reduced hemoglobin, and the ph of urine falls from normal value 7.4 to 5 ... 6 units.
... Loss of appetite in cancer is also associated with intoxication. First, a person loses interest and pleasure in food, then selectivity appears in the choice of dishes - more often the patient refuses protein foods. V severe cases patients refuse any food offered to them, eat little by little and forcefully.
... Weight loss - this symptom is associated not only with intoxication, loss of appetite, but also with impaired protein, carbohydrate and water-salt metabolism. The harmonious background is disturbed. With tumors gastrointestinal tract and the organs of the digestive system, weight loss occurs due to poor intake of digestive enzymes, absorption of food masses. The most severe weight loss occurs in cancers of the pancreas, liver, esophagus and stomach. Less commonly - with intestinal tumors. Of the malignant tumors outside the digestive system, these symptoms are most common in lung cancer. With a malignant tumor of the breast, larynx, thyroid gland, uterus, tumors of the skin of the face - neither weakness, nor loss of appetite, nor weight loss in patients is observed.
... An increase in body temperature is one of the signs of tumor intoxication. The temperature rises in the evenings and is 37.2 - 37.4 ° С. An increase in body temperature to 38 ° C and above indicates severe intoxication during the decay of the tumor and attachment inflammatory process.
... Depression is a depressed state. The patient loses interest in everything, becomes withdrawn and irritable.
... Against the background of the listed symptoms, other "local" symptoms of cancer are noted. Only in advanced cases, cancers have such pronounced and vivid symptoms that the diagnosis is beyond doubt.
Lung cancer symptoms
The cough, at first rare and dry, in the form of a cough, then begins to disturb during the day, evening and even at night. The cough intensifies, later mucous sputum appears, which turns into purulent.
... Shortness of breath increases slowly. If the tumor blocks the lumen of the bronchus or fluid accumulates in the pleural cavity, shortness of breath can sharply increase.
... Hemoptysis is one of the most alarming and threatening symptoms. Once noted hemoptysis, even if it is only streaks of blood in the sputum, requires examination.
... Chest pains are intense and not associated with breathing. Often these pains are mistaken for "heart" pains. Pain in the anterior, posterior or lateral regions is often more severe, aggravated with deep breathing, coughing and is associated with the invasion of a pleural tumor. It happens without pain, doctors can treat pneumonia and bronchitis for a long time. Lung cancer is dangerous because there is often no pain, just a cough. And when, after a few months, pain appears in another place, due to metastasis, MRI is done - there is the fourth stage.
... Pains appear in the lower leg area, the phalanges of the upper limb fingers thicken, mobility in large joints is impaired. Sometimes patients suffer from inflammation of the veins, voice hoarseness develops, The lymph nodes in the supraclavicular areas.
Stomach cancer symptoms
Pain, often dull, in the upper abdomen and not associated with meals.
... Bloating and heaviness in the stomach, arising after eating, belching with air appears, and subsequently - and food.
... Vomiting of food eaten the day before occurs when a tumor narrows the outlet of the stomach. Vomiting brings relief. If the tumor narrows the entrance to the stomach, the passage for solid, and then for liquid food is impaired.
... Gastric bleeding - vomiting in the form coffee grounds or tarry stools.
... Pallor skin develops gradually, sometimes accompanied by tachycardia (increased heart rate), a decrease in blood pressure, headaches, an increase in abdominal volume due to ascites - the accumulation of fluid.
... The lymph nodes on the left in the supraclavicular region or a painless lump in the navel are enlarged.
Colon cancer symptoms do not differ much from chronic or inflammatory diseases... For a long time, people prefer not to pay attention to the manifestations of the disease that they have, which leads to the detection of a tumor in the later stages.
Colon cancer is accompanied by the following symptoms:
... decreased appetite, nausea, belching, feeling of heaviness and bloating in the epigastric region;
... constipation, leading to bloating, rumbling and resolution of diarrhea - the release of a large amount of liquid fetid masses, after which constipation occurs again. The swelling can cause stool and gas retention and cause acute or chronic intestinal obstruction;
... severe pain, paroxysmal in the left side of the abdomen, sometimes take on a diffuse character without a clear localization. In the absence of obstruction, pains are localized in the right half of the abdomen, are dull and aching;
... pallor of the skin, an increase in weakness, malaise, an increase in body temperature. In rare cases, a tumor can be detected by examining the abdomen or feeling it even in the absence of any manifestations.
Rectal cancer, symptoms:
Constipation; stool after constipation have fetid odor, semi-liquid consistency. Sometimes there is a violation of the shape of the fecal column - "ribbon-like feces", "sheep feces";
... feeling of incomplete bowel movement, false urge to stool;
... feces can be mixed with mucus, pus, sometimes only mucus is released when you urge. With development inflammatory response in the intestinal wall, diarrhea may occur;
... the release of unchanged blood during the act of defecation. Blood can be excreted before stool, be on their surface in the form of a strip, or be mixed with them. Heavy bleeding practically do not occur;
... dull pain, aching, can be given to the sacrum or coccyx. With tumors that occur in the lowermost parts of the rectum, pain occurs early and is quite intense. With cancer of this part of the intestine, there may be an increase in the inguinal lymph nodes.
Pancreatic cancer, signs:
Pain is one of the signs of the disease. Usually the pains are dull, aching and pressing, localized in the upper abdomen. Increased pain can occur after eating fatty foods or alcohol. With the addition of inflammation, the pain may have a shingles in nature. Sometimes the pain is severe due to compression of the solar plexus;
... jaundice, which is rapidly increasing, itchy skin appears. Characterized by dark coloration of urine and light (gray) feces. The feces are fatty, poorly washed off with water from the walls of the toilet;
... weight loss up to 10 - 15% per month;
... an increase in body temperature up to 38 ° C and above;
... on palpation, you can feel the presence of a round, painless formation in the liver area - this is an enlarged gallbladder. Spleen enlargement and pain in its area are rare.
Esophageal cancer, symptoms:
Drooling is the first and rather early symptom of a malignant neoplasm;
... violation of swallowing, when eating, there are unpleasant sensations, a scratching feeling when passing a food lump or its delay at any level. Difficulty swallowing solid food. Food has to be washed down, later liquid food passes with difficulty, In this case, the patient experiences a feeling of fullness. Choking when eating;
... bad breath due to food lingering in the esophagus;
... vomiting of food eaten;
... pain behind the sternum or in the interscapular region, cough, hoarseness;
... progressive weight loss.
Symptoms of brain tumors
Frequent headaches that are worse lying down.
... Nausea with or without vomiting.
... Weakened vision or double vision.
... Convulsions.
... Difficulty thinking, confusion, or even coma.
... Other symptoms depend on the position of the tumor and may include weakness or unsteadiness, paralysis on one side of the body, dizziness, difficulty speaking, memory impairment, loss of smell or hearing, or character changes.
Mammary cancer
The most common disease affecting women. In the early stages there is a lump, a painless formation in the area of the mammary gland the size of a "pea", later - with a "nut" and more. The increase in size may be violent or may not change size for months. The surface is bumpy, the tumor can be mobile with the gland relative to the chest or be associated with it. The patient has the following symptoms:
Discharge from the nipple, often bloody, nipple retracted;
... the skin over the tumor may be retracted, hyperemic;
... there is an increase in body temperature;
... in the nipple area, erosion, a weeping surface covered with scales and crusts is possible;
... there is an increase in lymph nodes in the subclavian and axillary regions;
... swelling of the upper limb on the affected side.
* * *
During external examination, attention should be paid to the change in the color of the skin.
Pallor of the skin can be short-term and long-term. Short-term pallor occurs with strong negative emotional irritation. Prolonged pallor of the skin, mucous membranes is associated with a decrease in the content of hemoglobin or erythrocytes in the blood; can be caused by blood loss associated with tumor growth and destruction of blood vessels and tissues, or the disintegration of the tumor itself.
Icteric staining of the skin and sclera indicates a disease of the pancreas, liver, bile ducts associated with malignant tumors or with compression of the bile ducts, or liver damage by metastases of tumors of the stomach, intestines. Jaundice is accompanied by itchy skin.
Darkening of the skin associated with bilateral lesions of the adrenal glands by primary tumors or metastases.
Pigmentation disorders. On the skin there may be various spots: completely pigmented, brown or nearly black. With the appearance of erosions, scales, warty growths in the place of age spots, fast-growing pigment formations and tumors should alert the patient.
Malignant melanomas - they never have hair growth. Melanoma is prone to decay and bleeding. The defect that appears may crust over, but not heal. If such changes are found, you should immediately contact your oncologist.
A dense formation in the area of the lower lip, painless, takes the form of a sore with roller-like edges or resembles growths in the form of "cauliflower". Growths can spread to the mucous membrane of the oral cavity, to the skin of the face, to capture almost the entire lower lip... When the first signs appear, the patient needs to consult an oncologist.
Swelling in the area lower jaw... The cause may be a malignant tumor of the salivary glands. In the lower part of the neck to the left or to the right, from the center at the isthmus, a tumor of the thyroid gland can be observed, more often it is benign. The supra- and subclavian areas should be examined, since various pathological processes are often localized there.
Swollen lymph nodes. When the lymph nodes are affected by tumor metastases, they increase, they can merge with each other into conglomerates. The skin above them is of normal color.
The appearance of puffiness, pastiness of the face and neck, and then puffiness with hyperemia or cyanosis. The emerging symptoms are associated with compression or invasion of the tumor of vascular or nerve formations localized inside the chest.
When examining the chest, symmetry and equal participation in the act of breathing of both its halves is important. Tumor processes lead to a lag in one of the halves of the chest, which indicates a violation of the breathing process of certain areas or the entire lung.
With a strong increase in the liver or spleen, less often with tumors of the stomach and intestines, pancreas, deformation occurs abdominal wall and its asymmetry, but this is very rare.
Changes in the contours of the upper and lower extremities, edema associated with a compressed tumor of the vessels. Swelling of one upper limb occurs with cancer of the apex of the lung or metastases of breast cancer. Swelling of both upper extremities - with metastases in the mediastinum.
Swelling, deformation large joints, as well as thickening of the nail phalanges of the fingers of the hand (like drumsticks with rounding and bulging of the nail plates like watch glasses) accompany lung cancer.
When examining the mammary glands (standing in front of a mirror), you need to pay attention to possible appearance asymmetry, changes in the contour or shape of one of the mammary glands due to retraction of the nipple or protrusion of the skin or uniform enlargement of the mammary gland, sharp swelling of the nipple. The appearance of tuberosity, a change in the color of the skin over the mammary glands, the appearance of erosions, crusts in the nipple area are a manifestation of cancer.
After examination, palpation is necessary. Palpation is based on subjective sensation and assessment of the examined organs and tissues. During this study, the density, elasticity, mobility and soreness of the examined area of the body or organ are assessed. The pads of the fingers are involved in palpation, the nails should not touch the skin. The study is best done in the bathroom, when the body is fresh and warm enough, or right in the shower, when the hands and body are lathered. You can use a cream to make it easier to slide your fingers over your skin.
Palpation begins with palpation with stroking movements:
Skin and facial tissues;
... scalp;
... the front and back of the neck;
... supraclavicular and subclavian areas;
... chest front and sides;
... the mammary glands are palpated separately;
... armpits;
... stomach;
... groin areas;
... upper and lower limbs.
Tumors of the salivary glands can be felt in the form of dense, lumpy, slightly painful or painless formations in the front and slightly down from the external auditory canal in the lateral parts of the face or in the submandibular region. In the neck, supra- and subclavian, axillary and groin areas lymph nodes are palpated. Normally, they are not palpable, they are small, oblong, painless formations. When a malignant tumor is affected, the lymph nodes increase in size and become dense to the touch. Sometimes they merge with each other into a conglomerate, which, on palpation, is defined as an irregular bumpy formation.
It is better to palpate the abdomen in the supine position with light stroking movements clockwise. You can find dense formations, an enlarged liver in the right hypochondrium, the spleen - in the left hypochondrium. Palpation reveals the place of pain, intensification of the already existing pain.
In the groin areas, lymph nodes are determined by palpation, normally they are rarely palpated.
Palpation of dense, painless formations on the external genitals is a reason for consulting an oncologist. Self-examination is necessary at least once a month.
A detected tumor, which has not yet shown itself in anything, should alert and force you to immediately seek the advice of a specialist for a diagnosis. The earlier a tumor is detected, the better the result of its treatment. However, not with rays and chemistry - this is a separate topic. Try not to worry, not to despair, but to tune in to fight the disease, believe in your healing.
If an alarming symptom occurs, you need to urgently:
... check hemoglobin, pass tumor markers, measure urine ph;
... make an x-ray, tomography;
... women can be examined by a gynecologist, in the presence of mastopathy, they can be examined by a mammologist or oncologist 2-3 times a year, only to be examined;
... at the slightest changes in the stomach, it is necessary to carry out fluoroscopy, fibrogastroscopy;
... in case of changes in the intestine, a proctologist's examination is recommended, endoscopic examinations - colonoscopy, sigmoidoscopy, X-ray studies, irrigoscopy.
Important! What not to do with cancer:
1) Radiation therapy. The rays leave severe burns, give adhesions and problems (with the intestines, the thyroid gland, lungs are burnt). The rays themselves cause cancer and radiation sickness. If it seems to you that this is a trifle, I will give non-fictional examples.
a) Kryvyi Rih. The woman has rectal cancer and was prescribed a course of radiotherapy before the operation. She stopped walking. Because of the burns, she could only lie with her legs apart. The burns led to perforation of the rectum and rectovaginal fistula - feces are released not only through the anus, but also through the vagina.
b) Moscow. Lungs' cancer. The man received radiotherapy in Germany. In place of the lungs - burns and holes. For three months he did not live and did not die. While they were pouring it into a vein in a private clinic in Ukraine, I held on. He died two weeks after being discharged.
2) Chemistry - without chemistry, you can live longer, with less pain. Chemistry destroys the circulatory system, causing ischemia (lack of blood circulation) and hypoxia (oxygen deprivation), which makes the situation worse. These two procedures have shown their uselessness. It's time to admit that nothing has been achieved in the treatment of cancer over the past 100 years. In diagnosis - yes, in treatment - no. From experience I can say that those who started alternative treatment without going through rays and chemistry, the treatment is more successful, and the prognosis is more favorable, compared to those who underwent several sessions of rays and chemistry.
3) Also, you should not do a biopsy (piercing and pinching off pieces of tissue for histological analysis). The biopsy provokes rapid tumor growth. The body seeks to encapsulate the problem, forming cysts and local neoplasms. In the case of a puncture of such a capsule, trophoblasts are sent to this place, which stimulate the uncontrollable growth of cancer cells. Survival rates after these three procedures plummet and the prognosis is poor.
Many patients experience panic when identifying a tumor during self-examination. Fear is an indefinite, pointless, anonymous, unmotivated emotion. Fear changes the direction we bull; Pain, often dull, in the upper abdomen and not associated with meals, sleep and behavior. Experiencing fear, the patient has only probable forecast possible trouble and acts on the basis of this (often insufficiently reliable) forecast. Also, there are many examples of "fake" cancer diagnoses.
Meanwhile, heroes and cowards share the same fear, they just react to it differently.
Your attitude will make a big difference. Do not panic! First, paint yourself a picture of the worst that can happen. Then - come to terms with it. It is important. After that, you can calmly and effectively solve the problem. Now twist a hefty figure in your thoughts to cancer and go
Survival of patients after chemotherapy for 5 years
In the medical journal " Clinical oncology”(Dr. Morgan et al.) In 2004, an article was published that is startling and terrifying at the same time. The article analyzes the results of the use of chemotherapy for various types of cancer in patients with stages 3 and 4 and shows the survival rate of such patients.
To conduct this study, scientists took patients who were strictly carried out according to the requirements of scientific medicine (the requirements of double-blind published studies on chemotherapy drugs recommended as effective) and traced the survival rate of patients taking chemotherapy for 5 years (from 1998 to 2003).
These facts are not known to the general public, and what is even more dangerous, they are not known to most doctors. The collected data show zero rates of effectiveness of modern chemotherapy in patients with pancreatic cancer, soft tissue sarcoma, melanoma, prostate cancer, bladder cancer, uterine cancer, kidney cancer, myeloma. Not a single patient with these types of cancer who received chemotherapy treatment survived 5 years. For other cancers, chemotherapy also shows very low survival rates of 0.7% to 3%. Practically today, we can state the effectiveness of chemotherapy only for two types of cancer: Hodgkin's lymphoma and testicular cancer. See tab. at the bottom.
Analyzing the research data, the scientists in this article ask the question about the meaning of the fundamental application of chemotherapy in the form in which it is used today. The alarming situation of the ineffectiveness of the use of modern chemotherapy poses for doctors and scientists the task of urgently increasing its effectiveness and changing the current situation in the treatment of stage 3-4 cancer patients. It is unlikely that this task will be solved by them, since this conveyor of death (operation, rays, chemistry) has other goals.

"Everything ends someday - both good and bad. Behind the operation, radiation, chemotherapy. Hair begins to grow back, no longer dizzy and cloudy in the morning. The body is slowly recovering", - this is how Alexander Myasnikov begins in his new book on cancer treatment chapter on life after surgery. How many years of life after cancer treatment can you expect? Can your prognosis be improved with diet, an active lifestyle, or medication?
The fate of all patients with oncology is different: someone is observed during the first years and slowly forgets everything that happened, someone has relapses and it is necessary permanent treatment... The main thing for everyone is firmness of spirit, faith in yourself, in your destiny and your Guardian Angel! Never give up!
When I came to work in the oncology department at the New York hospital, the head of the department asked me if I knew what was most important for determining the prognosis of treatment for a cancer patient? I began to list: the type of tumor, its localization, the presence and number of metastases ... "Yes," agreed the head, "but this is not the main thing!"
Do you know what turned out to be the main thing? How active the patient is! Does she go to the store, does housework, prepares food, serves herself, does she look after her appearance. There is a special scale for all types of activity with a system of points for each. The amount is used to determine the forecast.
For a cancer patient, everything is now important. For others, “the thunder has not yet struck,” but for him the countdown of a new life has begun. New both physically and psychologically. Time acquired tangibility, the naive thoughtlessness familiar to the majority was replaced by the understanding that it has a measure.
Today, that cancer, that atherosclerosis, that diabetes, that hypertension - all these are chronic diseases. All of them are not completely cured, they all require constant monitoring and treatment, they all impose certain obligations on the patient's lifestyle and behavior. Only a cancer patient lives under the constant pressure of the term "malignant process", while a heart disease or a diabetic does not.
But let's look with an open mind: with timely detection of oncology with the overwhelming number of tumors, the survival rate over a 5-year period is 85-95%. That is a chance unfavorable outcome 5-15% over 5 years.
Now let's calculate the unfavorable outcome for a 50-year-old man with no signs of any other heart disease, formally healthy. But - overweight, high sugar, cholesterol, blood pressure, smoker, with a family history of heart disease, or.
Let's introduce all the risk factors and see the chances of an unfavorable outcome by age 55, i.e. after the same 5 years. Do you know what number will appear in the answer? 33%! And nobody, with rare exceptions, cares about it! They continue to lie on the couch, smoke, eat dumplings and sausages ...
It is high time to rearrange the accents. Oncology has become a chronic disease. A lifestyle full of stress, unhealthy diet, physical inactivity, bad habits, kills faster and more persistently. But for a patient with oncology there are also advantages! He no longer needs to explain the seriousness of the situation - the only bad thing is that he is scared half to death.
Let's understand that a lot is in our hands, the main thing is a sober view of things and no panic. So, what a person needs to know after the primary treatment of a tumor.
Diet
After the experience, people sometimes rush to extremes: they start eating high-calorie foods based on the postulate "where the fat dries, the skinny dies" or are led to numerous (and, as a rule, unreliable) reports about the anticancer ability of certain foods and begin to consume them in horrifying quantities , to the detriment of everything else.
Rule # 1: cancer patient it is necessary to adhere to the same principles of proper nutrition as everyone else. A focus on fruits and vegetables, more fiber, less meat, and more fish, limit animal fats, cooking meats, baked goods, minimize salt intake.
Firstly, numerous studies have shown that such a diet is optimal for almost all types of cancer. Secondly, the transferred cancer is not an indulgence: it is stupid to recover after an oncological operation and die from a heart attack or stroke!
The benefits of certain diets for cancer are periodically discussed. For example, there has been a study analyzing the effect of special diets (lacto-vegetarians, potassium-rich foods, with low content sodium, fruit juices and vitamins) to prevent development. Another study looked at the benefits of a "macrobiotic" diet for cancer (predominantly vegetarian, limited in fat, high in fiber and carbohydrates). With the initial favorable impression, the researchers could not convincingly prove any special advantages over the usual principles of healthy eating (with which these diets, by the way, are similar!).
Rule # 2: keep a stable weight if you have a normal body mass index. Extremes are not needed here. Excess weight should be especially avoided. It is associated with a higher relapse rate in diseases such as breast, bowel, and prostate cancer.
Rule # 3: do not get hung up in search of specific products with supposedly antitumor activity. Their effect is usually questionable, but excessive consumption can be problematic.
For example, green tea. The polyphenols it contains may be beneficial in prostate and ovarian cancer. However, they are metabolized in the same biochemical chain as some chemotherapy drugs, and thus can alter their action. The same applies to vitamin C - during chemotherapy, you should avoid taking large doses of it.
The role of lycopene in the prevention of prostate cancer has been studied for several years. It is found in high amounts in tomatoes, red peppers, and other red vegetables. Clinical trials have not yet confirmed its effectiveness. The same applies to Coenzyme Q-10, St. John's wort and melatonin.
About alcohol. There is no absolute prohibition. Statistics show that for the majority of patients who have undergone cancer treatment, moderate (moderate!) Alcohol consumption (a glass of wine or beer per day) is harmless.
Exercise stress
The next thing to pay constant attention to is physical activity. In cancer, chronic fatigue can become the leading symptom, and we can only oppose it with regular exercise.
Numerous studies prove that even the most weakened patient (not necessarily oncological), even bedridden, adequate regular physical activity improves the prognosis and quality of life! As long as you have the strength to move, you have to do it!
As for the overwhelming number of people who have undergone cancer treatment, they include the general postulate of all doctors: everyone should devote at least half an hour a day to some kind of physical activity, five times a week!
Preventing relapse with medication
Prevention oncological diseases(primary or relapse) with medication is called "chemoprophylaxis". Doctors noted that taking some drugs used for another reason can prevent the development of cancer. These observations reflect statistics large numbers, an individual fate can develop in different ways, but the chances of avoiding the disease increase. So...
Acetylsalicylic acid. Many years ago, doctors noticed the properties of acetylsalicylic acid to delay the development of colon cancer. Since then, numerous studies have been introduced to support this action. For other types of cancer acetylsalicylic acid it can also be useful - this is prostate cancer, lung cancer, ovarian cancer, esophageal cancer and some others. Therefore, when doctors are hesitant to give a patient aspirin for the prevention of heart disease or not (there are pros and cons), a family history of cancer, such as colon cancer, may bias the doctor's opinion in favor of aspirin.
Metformin. The active substance of several first-line drugs for the second type of treatment. It has the unique effect of reducing the resistance of our receptors to the action of insulin. It is also used to treat infertility, polycystic ovary disease, metabolic syndrome and to lose weight. Strictly speaking, diabetes is a precancerous condition: insulin resistance is at the root of not only diabetes and heart disease, but many cancers.
Statins- drugs that lower cholesterol. These drugs may reduce the risk of ovarian, esophageal, and colon cancer. There is no exact explanation for this fact yet, and I do not want to bore you with hypotheses. The situation here, as with aspirin - at the moment the scales fluctuate: to accept or not - the presence of risk factors for oncology can facilitate the choice.
Drugs used for prophylaxis. If we reduce the logic of their appointment to a primitive, it will sound like this: an increased level of estrogen can lead to breast cancer, so drugs that reduce the tissue's susceptibility to estrogen can have a prophylactic effect in terms of oncology.
Pain relievers
Yes, it also happens: the final stage of the disease can be accompanied by severe pain. Modern medicine has everything it needs to prevent this from happening. That is not to allow it at all. There is a whole branch of anesthesiology - "pain management" aimed at just this.
However, there are often cases when terminal cancer patients did not receive adequate pain relief, and sometimes it ended tragically. And the problem here is the excessive regulation of the issue of painkillers. Often, the doctor runs away from their discharge like fire - more papers have to be filled out than getting an American visa!
I really hope that this criminal state of affairs will change in the near future! And for those who admitted the very existence of this problem, I wish to spend an eternity on bonfires in Hell (which, if not, it would be good to specially create it for such individuals!).
Discussion
Thank you very much for the interesting and useful article to Dr. Myasnikov.
On all medical issues of interest to me, I often turn to his opinion first.
Answer all possible questions without avoiding sharp corners!
Sometimes he even goes against the established authoritative stereotypes!
And it's hard to disagree with him.
This article helped me a lot (2 months ago I watched a YouTube show on this topic!)
And then, lying in oncology (ca.sigma 4-grade), she served me as the right guide in my new life.
Namely: daily loads of walking for 30-40 minutes. 2 times a day, morning exercises, a shower and going to work (I switched to 1/2 rate - this is feasible) every two weeks chemotherapy courses.
I'm going through the third well already.
A charge of cheerfulness and optimism against the background of a healthy diet.
I dropped from 118 to 100 kg.
It became easier to walk.
But there is a need to rest more often.
Every 4-5 hours.
So it is with food.
The appetite is good, but you have to eat at two and three nights, because there is not enough until the morning.
However, I am getting enough sleep!
Thank you for his mentality and correct deep and at the same time popular approach to all medical topics!
Despite the fact that the doctor himself has 40 years of experience - it is not possible to cover everything!
Men - do sigmoidoscopy on time as it should be!
Colon cancer is very insidious and not very symptomatic !!!
I completed a course in nutritional science. One of the topics was led by an oncologist. Her words: "Now medicine is at a very high level in the treatment of this disease. The only question is to sustain the patient's liver after chemotherapy." I drink phytocomplexes to clean it. Better to be on the safe side.
I liked the article. It confirms my rules of life. I underwent an operation to remove a cancerous tumor along with a kidney. Now diet + exercise. The main thing is not to lose heart and not cry.
04/03/2018 08:45:48, TamaraThe attending doctor advised my aunt to take biobran for the fastest recovery of the body after chemotherapy, and generally drink it periodically in courses - strong immunity will not harm anyone. Biobran, being a plant immunomodulator, maintains immunity at the proper level.

5. To hospitalize and treat by directive, compulsory. 6.Promise cancer pills for vitamins or any other pills. Cancer: life after treatment. Diet, exercise, medication.
Diet, exercise, medication. How many years of life after cancer treatment can you expect? Excess weight should be especially avoided. It is associated with a higher relapse rate in diseases such as breast, bowel, and prostate cancer.
Cancer: life after treatment. Diet, exercise, medication. Statistics show that for the majority of patients who have undergone cancer, the problem here is in the excessive regulation of the issue of painkillers.
The diet for cancer depends on many different factors: the stage of development of the disease, the affected organ or system, the patient's condition, the degree of violation of mineral metabolism in cancer ( protein-energy malnutrition , hypercalcemia , Iron-deficiency anemia , water-electrolyte disturbances, and so on), the methods of treatment used at the moment.
In addition, in cancer, many patients develop concomitant damage to organs and systems, which also requires correction. health food... Therefore, in case of oncological diseases, a single diet does not exist and, in principle, cannot exist.
Oncodiet for malignant diseases in the initial stages, in the absence of concomitant diseases, outside the period and radiation exposure, it is based on a rational (healthy) diet. Nutrition should ensure energy adequacy and prevent development.
The diet should include all food groups, but milk should be predominant. herbal products... The diet must include at least 500 g of vegetables / fruits per day, as well as fermented milk products. It is recommended to reduce the consumption of any red meat, especially fatty, fried, smoked and sausage-meat products from it, by increasing the consumption of meat, poultry and fish. Limit consumption table salt and foods high in salt.
Do not exceed the consumption rate ethyl alcohol(20 g / day) when taking alcoholic beverages. Do not eat too hot / cold food.
Food should be tastier and more varied than that of healthy person, since many cancer patients suffer from appetite and taste and habits are disturbed, especially with limited mobility of the patient, which often leads to refusal to eat. It is necessary to include in the diet more often fresh vegetables, fruits and juices from them, whole grains.
First of all, the patient's tastes should be taken into account as much as possible and his favorite dishes should be prepared. In the absence of specific contraindications, the patient should eat what he wants at the moment.
The drinking regimen is usual for the patient. In the absence of kidney disease, it is advisable to increase fluid intake through fermented milk drinks (kefir, yogurt) and milk, vegetable and fruit juices, tea, table mineral waters.
The progression of diseases in cancer patients is accompanied by nutritional disorders since malignant tumors cause metabolic disorders with shifts in various types of metabolism (protein, carbohydrate, energy, and others). This is especially pronounced with oncological tumors at 3-4 stages. As a rule, at this stage, patients are prescribed intensive antitumor treatment (radical surgery to remove a tumor, intensive courses, radiation exposure ), which negatively affect the nutritional status of patients.
Chemotherapy drugs and radiation therapy are especially effective, causing nausea, taste changes, aversion to food, vomiting, and later, intestinal fistulas and strictures appear. Many patients with grade 3-4 oncology develop psychogenic anorexia ... These phenomena lead to the development cachexia and protein-energy malnutrition with a pronounced depletion of protein reserves.
In such conditions, in the intervals between courses of treatment, after improving health, it is necessary to increase the amount of food taken and the frequency of meals. It is necessary to take food at any desire, to eat, even if the meal time has not come.
Meat pâté is an energy-intensive and satisfying product
In the absence or poor appetite, it is recommended to include in the diet energy intensive products , allowing, with a small volume, to obtain a sufficient amount of nutrients: red caviar, pates, eggs, sprats, honey, nuts, chocolate, cream, creams. They can also be consumed between meals. To improve appetite, it is necessary to add spices to dishes, seasonings in the form of sauces of pickled vegetables, sour juices, which contribute to the secretion gastric juice, and speed up the digestion of food.
In the period between courses of chemotherapy, in the absence of contraindications, it is allowed to consume table dry wines, beer or stronger alcoholic beverages in an amount of 20-30 ml before meals. During the period of chemotherapy courses, fluid intake should be increased, mainly due to juices and fermented milk drinks. In the presence of edema or effusions in the abdominal / pleural cavity, fluid intake, on the contrary, should be reduced and not exceed the volume of excreted daily urine by more than 400 ml.
Nutrition for cancer is adjusted depending on the symptoms and condition of the patient. So, the leading symptoms during chemotherapy are severe nausea and prolonged vomiting, which leads to dehydration and impaired water-salt metabolism.
- do not take liquid and food for 1-2 hours before the introduction of a chemotherapy drug;
- with frequent bouts of vomiting, you should refrain from drinking and eating for 4-8 hours, and then take a little food, mostly liquid;
- take food in small portions, 6-7 times a day and chew thoroughly, avoiding stomach overflow;
- nausea is reduced by the use of acidic and salty foods (cranberries, lemons, pickles);
- food should be at room temperature;
- exclude from the diet foods that have a strong odor and a specific taste, whole milk, too fatty and spicy foods (you can include it again in the diet after the disappearance of nausea);
- do not take liquid with meals, but take more of it in between meals.
When increasing severe complications patients are often due to severe nausea and vomiting from food intake completely refuse. In such cases, exhaustion increases already from forced starvation and the patient must be switched to artificial nutrition, starting with parenteral nutrition and enteral nutrition (through a tube) is prescribed simultaneously with it or after it.
Parenteral nutrition for cancer is carried out by introducing nutrients bypassing the gastrointestinal tract, directly into the vascular bed or others internal environments organism. The main components of parenteral nutrition are divided into: energy donors (fat emulsions, carbohydrate solutions) and protein nutrition (solutions), which are introduced into the patient's body according to special schemes.
Enteral nutrition for cancer patients with increasing depletion of the body is a fairly effective way of feeding patients. Probe diets consist of liquid and semi-liquid foods and meals that go directly to the stomach / small intestine through a tube. Dense dishes are ground or grinded and diluted with a liquid corresponding to the nature of the nutritional mixture (broth, milk, tea, vegetable broths, fruit juice). The temperature of the dishes is about 45 degrees.
Most commonly used Diet number 1 or 2 , and at concomitant diseases- disease-appropriate liquid dietary food. For probe feeding, we recommend a special industrial food: composite , inpitan , enpits , ovolact other. You can also use specialized baby food, such as Nutricia products, which can be bought at baby food stores. Such mixtures are well balanced and enriched with vitamins and microelements. They can be used as stand-alone meals or to be added to other meals and drinks.
A frequent manifestation of the negative effects of chemotherapy and radiation therapy is stool disorder, more often - diarrhea ... The diet should be aimed at sparing the intestines and compensating for nutrients lost due to malabsorption ... For this purpose, the diet includes foods that reduce intestinal motility: grated cereal soups, cereals on water, soft-boiled eggs, mashed potatoes on water, steam meatballs from meat, poultry and fish, freshly prepared cottage cheese dishes, bananas, jelly, mashed apples, green tea, blueberry, chokeberry and currant mousses.
The consumption of foods rich in animal proteins is limited. Take food fractionally, in small portions. With the normalization of the stool, the patient is transferred to a more varied and less sparing diet with restriction of food rich in fiber. Meals according to the type of diet of pureed and not pureed diet options for chronic enteritis .
A large group of complications is made up of ulcerative complications that make it difficult to eat and inflammation of the esophageal mucosa ( esophagitis ), manifested by difficulty and pain when swallowing solid food, chest pain, less often vomiting or regurgitation. Diet food in such cases should be based on the maximum sparing of the oral mucosa and esophagus. Spicy, hot, salty and sour foods, dry foods should be excluded.
The diet should only contain well-mashed food, consisting of semi-liquid warm dishes (slimy soups, omelets, steamed meat and fish purees and soufflés, cereals, milk and jelly). Bread, hot sauces and spices, fried and whole lumpy dishes are excluded from the diet. Alcohol, coffee, hot and cold foods are prohibited. In the acute period - you can use specialized children's dietary concentrates (cereals, meat, vegetables, fruit), yogurt, cottage cheese, non-acidic jelly, mild grated cheeses; as the acute symptoms subside, lightly salted broths, soups (cream soup) and then well-grated dishes.
Varieties

Menu (Power Mode)
The menu and diet of cancer patients is determined by the characteristics of the diet, depending on the affected organ or system, the stage of the disease, the patient's condition and specific treatment methods and is compiled individually.
In the early stages and in the absence of violations of the gastrointestinal tract, the menu is compiled on the basis of a physiologically complete diet based on the caloric content of the daily diet at the level of 2900-3000 Kcal (proteins - 95-100 g, fats - 100-105 g, carbohydrates - 450 g).
The use of almost all products is allowed, with the exception of those not recommended and all types of culinary processing. Spicy and hard-to-digest foods are excluded from the menu. Eating 4-5 times a day.
Drinking regime - up to 2 liters of free liquid.
During the period chemo- and radiation therapy the menu is drawn up on the basis of the enhanced diet assigned to the patient, based on the inclusion of energy-intensive, high-calorie foods in the diet. The energy value of the daily diet should be at the level of 4000-4500 Kcal. Practice 6-7 meals a day with additional snacks between meals. The liquid is consumed outside of meal times.
The menu for cancer of any organs of the gastrointestinal tract is based on dietary Tables No. 1 - 5 , depending on the affected organ.
Advantages and disadvantages
Results and reviews
- « ... My father has lung cancer, underwent surgery and underwent several courses of chemotherapy. The condition was serious, severe vomiting and nausea. No special diet was prescribed. He was fed with high-calorie foods: soups in chicken broth, red fish, honey, chicken, various vegetables and fruits. Basically, they bought everything he asked for. Now his condition has returned to normal, he was discharged from the clinic, but still his mother buys him more high-calorie foods. So I want him to live a little more»;
- « ... Underwent surgery for stomach cancer, removed 1/3 of it, underwent a course of chemotherapy. I eat Diet # 1. Everything is sparing, frayed. The doctors said that this is my diet for the rest of my life, although over time you can switch to a non-shabby diet.».
Diet price
The set of products varies significantly depending on the prescribed diet. The calculation was carried out at the average food prices with a physiologically complete diet, as well as with enhanced nutrition during the chemotherapy period, when energy-intensive foods (red caviar, honey, cream, red fish, etc.) were included in the diet, which are the most expensive.
The average cost of food for a week with a physiologically complete diet varies between 2500-3000 rubles, and with enhanced nutrition, 4300-4800 rubles.
Categorically can not be used for canceror even if you suspect the presence of a malignant tumor, the following procedures and methods.
Electrotherapy : galvanization, impulse currents of low frequency, electricity high frequency(darsonvalization), alternating magnetic field of low and high frequency, electric field of ultrahigh frequency and electric field of ultrahigh frequency (decimeter and centimeter range).
Infrared and external radiation, ultraviolet radiation, that is, you cannot sunbathe or take physiotherapy procedures using these radiations, especially in tanning salons.
It should be remembered that ultraviolet radiation from the sun damages the DNA molecules of skin cells and contributes to the development of malignant skin tumors. If the sun is outside and you are out for a walk, you should wear Sunglasses and headdress;
Vibrotherapy and ultrasound therapy; aeroionotherapy; treatment with variable air pressure (local pressure chamber); alpha and beta therapy.
A general contraindication for all neoplasms, including benign tumors with a tendency to grow, is the course applicationcold and thermal hydrotherapy proceduresas well as usingmud therapy and ozokerite therapy.
Precautions should be taken when using household appliances with electromagnetic radiation. There are reports of the development of brain tumors with frequent use of radiotelephones. A working TV and computer, which are sources of weak electromagnetic fields, should be turned off at night. When watching programs on TV, you need to be at a distance of 1.5 meters from it.
"Grandfather's" mechanical methods for removing unwanted hair are a thing of the past. They were replaced bylaser hair removal, a safe and comfortable method to get rid of hair permanently. On the website of the Oxford Medical clinic www.oxford-med.com.ua you can learn about the benefits the latest technology- Elos hair removal.
What drugs should not be used for cancer.
In case of malignant neoplasms, the following should not be used:
1. Preparations containing bee venoms, for example, apizartron, etc.
2. Preparations from the vitreous body.
3. Indirect anticoagulants, such as dicumarin.
4. Estrogenic hormonal drugs eg folliculin.
5. Contraceptives such as infectious disease.
6. Hormonal gonadotropic drugs of the pituitary gland, for example, serum gonadotropin or chorionic gonadotropin.
With great care and only as directed by the attending physician, anabolic hormonal drugs and various stimulants of proliferative processes should be used.
Vitamin E in cancer treatment
At the University of Glasgow, scientists have done interesting research. Back in the 90s, it was noted thatvitamin E (tocopherol)slows down the growth of a cancerous tumor in the mammary gland. Now, studies have been carried out confirming that vitamin E has a destructive effect on tumors in the skin. The extract was injected into the blood of patients vitamin E. Within a day, the tumor decreases in size, and after 10 days it generally dissolves.
As already mentioned, the healing effect of tocopherol has been noticed for a long time. However, most of the research in this area has been suspended due to the fact that it was not possible to deliver a large concentration of the vitamin specifically to cancer cells. The fact is thatvitamin E extracttogether with a therapeutic effect directed at cancer cells, it also has the strongest destructive effect on healthy tissues. Therefore, the treatment remained unsuccessful.
Scientists have proposed to put the healing extract in small balls, the walls of which are made of fat. Then the drug can travel through the bloodstream without damaging those tissues that do not need therapy.
Interestingly, vitamin E is found in almost all foods that a person consumes. Its greatest amount is found in cocoa butter, palm, barley and wheat germ.
The problem of the selective effect of the extract is solved as follows.
Cancer cells attract transferrin to them because they need iron to grow. There are many receptors on the membranes of cancer cells that capture transferrin. Therefore, the fat globules with tocopherol were coated with transferrin. As a result, the balls with vitamin E, attracted due to this protein, located on the surface, go directly to the cancerous tumor and destroy it.
Formerly vitamin E used as a powerful antioxidant that prevents free radicals from damaging healthy cells. This was an effective way to protect against many serious diseases... Now the appropriateness of the dose is being revised vitamin E , which was recommended by doctors.
To prevent the occurrence of a disease, including cancer, it is imperative to eat foods that contain vitamin E. These include: vegetable oils, nuts, eggs, green vegetables (dill, parsley, basil, onions) and, of course, cereals.
Cabbage cures cancer
In recent years, dark green vegetables such as Brussels sprouts, asparagus (broccoli), kale (kale), kale, kohlrabi and mustard have been receiving huge headlines in the press as more scientific and medical research proves that they are help people prevent cancer. Such prestigious American journals as the Journal of the National Cancer Institute and the Federal Bulletin reported that sulfur and histidine contained in green vegetable plants can inhibit the growth of cancerous tumors, help cleanse the human body of toxic environmental compounds, and prevent the development of colon cancer and increase the formation of anti-cancer substances in the body. In addition, they help to reduce the concentration of lipoproteins - "bad" cholesterol, which cause hardening of the walls of the arteries. They also improve metabolism and inhibit the development of fungal infections.
Statistics show that in recent decades in a number of countries, primarily in Japan and Finland, the percentage of stomach cancers has significantly decreased.
Experts associate this fact with an increase in the consumption of orange, tangerine and other high-carotene juices by the population of these countries, as well as with an increase in the consumption of green-yellow vegetables, including various types of cabbage.
Scientists are confident that cabbage cures cancer.
Professor T. Hirayama from Japan's National Cancer Center has studied the relationship between the lifestyle of people, the consumption of green-yellow vegetables and the incidence of cancer. The vulnerability of the human body in the worst way of life (unbalanced diet, systematic consumption of alcohol and regular smoking, etc.) was taken as 100%. However, even with this lifestyle, inclusion in daily diet Eating green-yellow vegetables reduces the risk of cancer in half.
Statistical studies have shown that the highest average life expectancy is observed precisely in Japan, which, no doubt, is also associated with the Japanese consumption of a large amount of green-yellow vegetables. Similar examples can be found in Russia. For example, in the mountains of Dagestan, which has long been famous for its long-livers, the population daily eats a wide variety of cultivated and wild green plants, including green-yellow vegetables (an average of 0.5 kg per day).
Any improvement in oxygen supply to healthy cells is primarily used by cancer cells to accelerate the proliferation and spread of metastases.
A carbohydrate diet, refusal to consume proteins are contraindicated. The only food for the tumor is glucose, so the amount of carbohydrates and the total amount of food should be reduced. Losing weight is beneficial. However, proteins (boiled meat, poultry, fish) must be included in the diet. Fasting during treatment with poisons is not recommended.
You can not help poisons with other medicinal herbs and remedies, since every useful action on cancer cells partially or completely destroys the effect of the poison.
Urine therapy, acupuncture, manual therapy, hirudotherapy, mummy can only bring harm in the treatment of cancer.
Smoking and alcohol in any quantities, fresh strong tea and coffee, sour food and sour drinks (neutralize poisons), seaweed, spicy, salty and fried foods are categorically contraindicated for cancer patients in the treatment of poisons.
What can and cannot be done with oncology?
People with cancer often wonder if certain foods and drinks can be consumed in oncology, and what can and cannot be done in general.
There is a general range of foods that doctors recommend for patients with malignant tumors. These include:
- fresh, frozen, dried fruits and vegetables without syrup;
- whole grain products (bread, cereals, pasta), as well as wheat germ, various seeds with elevated level fibers;
- protein foods such as beans, peas, lentils, Tofu soy cheese, eggs, low-fat meats, seafood;
- healthy fats (avocados, nuts, seeds, nut or olive oil, olives).
What is strictly forbidden to use in oncology?
- Products with high content carbohydrates (bakery products made from premium flour, baked goods, white rice, refined sugar in all types), since they feed the tumor cell.
- Alcoholic drinks. Therefore, the question "Is alcohol possible with oncology?" has only a negative answer. The less alcohol a person generally absorbs, the better for his health. Regular consumption of alcohol contributes to the development of oncological diseases of the oral cavity, pharyngeal gland, esophagus, larynx, breast, intestines and liver.
- Fatty, chemically processed and fried foods (pork and beef, as well as store products from them, fried potatoes). These are strong carcinogens.
- Semi-finished products, products with the presence of various stabilizers, conservatives, etc.
Some points are worth considering in more detail.
Can I drink with oncology?
It is not only possible to drink liquid with oncology, but also necessary. Proper hydration of the body is especially important for patients who receive chemotherapy or radiation therapy. The side effects of these treatments (nausea after chemotherapy, vomiting, diarrhea) increase the risk of dehydration. Therefore, it is recommended:
- Drink six to eight glasses of liquid a day. In order not to forget about drinking, you can keep a bottle of water near you and use it in small sips even when you do not feel like drinking.
- Alternate food and water intake. Be sure to pause between them.
The following substances also help to keep fluid in the body:
- decoction of fruits and dried fruits;
- freshly squeezed juices (but you should take into account the peculiarities of their action);
- green tea, nutritional supplements, baby electrolytes;
- soups, gelatin dishes.
Is it possible to use vitamins for oncology?
Our body needs nutrients such as vitamins, minerals, healthy fats and amino acids. Therefore, in the case of a malignant process, it is extremely important to adhere to balanced diet... But this is not always feasible.
All cancer patients should monitor their levels of nutrients such as:
- vitamins A, C, D;
- minerals such as zinc, calcium, selenium and magnesium;
- essential amino acids: phenylalanine, valine, threonine, toiptophan, isoleucine, methionine, leucine and lysine;
- some plant substances: carotenoids, flavonoids, isoflavones.
In modern medicine vitamins are widely used and biologically active additives(Dietary supplements) in various pharmaceutical forms as additional or even alternative agents for the treatment of cancer.
Can I use honey for oncology?
Honey has a powerful anti-carcinogenic effect, as it contains natural biological components of flavonoids. They are antioxidants known for their anticancer effects. When ingested, antioxidants reduce capillary permeability and fragility and inhibit collagen breakdown in the body.
The healing properties of honey are enhanced in combination with cinnamon, frankincense, turmeric, ginger.
However, you need to be extremely careful with the use of honey. It is forbidden to put honey in boiling water. In this case, it becomes very toxic. Honey can only be consumed with drinks chilled to 42 ° C.
Is it possible to have dairy products with oncology?
On the given time there is still no clear information about the effect of dairy products on the body of a cancer patient. On the one hand, they include calcium that a person needs. On the other hand, dairy products contain certain components that can negatively affect cancer formation.
Based on the World Data Survey, the following links have been identified between dairy products and some cancers:
- reducing the risk of developing and spreading colorectal cancer;
- increased risk of developing prostate cancer;
- regular consumption of dairy products can reduce the risk of development and metastasis of ovarian cancer and bladder cancer.
Is it possible to have coffee with oncology?
In recent years, judgments about coffee have changed a lot. If earlier it was believed that this drink has a negative effect on human health, then today most of the research points to the anti-cancer properties of coffee. And we are not talking about one or two cups, but about the amount of more than four per day.
Due to the antioxidant properties of coffee, it reduces the possibility of the occurrence and recurrence of such malignant diseases:
- 4 cups of coffee reduce head and mouth cancers (by 39%);
- 6 cups of coffee reduce prostate cancer by 60%;
- 5 cups of coffee prevent brain cancer by 40%;
- 2 cups of coffee reduce colon cancer by 25%. In people who consume 4 or more cups of coffee a day, the risk of recurrence of intestinal cancer after surgery and treatment is reduced by 42%;
- 1-3 cups of coffee reduce the risk of developing hepatocellular carcinoma by 29%.
Is massage possible with oncology?
Massage is one of available forms influence on the quality of life of cancer patients, as well as a way to improve the physical condition of the patient. But most schools of therapy say that massage is contraindicated in malignant tumors. There is a concern that massage can provoke the spread of the disease due to its effect on blood circulation.
Researchers refute these suspicions. However, it is recommended to seek help only from qualified massage therapists-oncologists. They are trained in special techniques that can positively influence the health of a person with malignant formation.
Can antibiotics be used for oncology?
Antibiotics for oncology can be used. And research from the New York Institute of Oncology even claims that these antimicrobial drugs can destroy mitochondria in cancer stem cells.
The effect of antibiotics has been studied on such oncological diseases as glioblastoma (the most aggressive brain tumor), neoplasms of the lungs, prostate, ovaries, mammary and pancreas, and skin.
In modern science, many innovative studies have been identified on the influence of certain factors on the malignant process. Therefore, it is important to know what is possible and what is not, as well as whether this or that remedy or action is possible with oncology.

Nutrition and diet for oncology
One of critical components treatment is the correct choice of diet and nutrition in oncology. In this case, the advice of relatives and friends should fade into the background, because the recommendations of an oncologist and a professional nutritionist are priority. Eating right is so important that a well-chosen diet often has a decisive influence on the future prognosis of the development of the disease.
It is very important that a sick person does not abruptly change one product for another. It is necessary to make changes in the diet gradually so that the body does not feel unnecessary stress. Useful food groups for various oncological diseases have been known for a long time and will be discussed below. Following a proper diet for cancer is a step towards complete recovery.
What tasks does nutrition solve for cancer
- Help in increasing the energy of the sick person's body.
- Ensuring the usual activity of the immune system.
- Getting the patient's body of the required nutrients that inhibit the development of the disease.
- Neutralization and further removal of the decay products of the neoplasm.
- Support for the work of various digestive organs.
Energy is simply necessary for a sick person so that he can live on and he would have the strength to fight the disease. The use of a diet in oncology is necessary to release, save and collect as much energy as possible, because part of it is spent on the assimilation of incompatible foods by the body: fried, smoked, too fatty. If a person's diet has been wrong for a long time, then this, naturally, will negatively affect his health. It should be noted that obtaining vitamins in oncology is especially important.
If you take into account the advice of professionals, then the products used for cancer should be as natural as possible, fresh, not exposed to heat treatment... An excellent solution is berries, fruits, vegetables that have been recently picked. Also, food contains a huge amount of energy for a sick person. That is why many doctors recommend that cancer patients live in nature: in the country or in the village, where in summer time there is access to similar products. Fruits, vegetables and others fresh food have a positive effect on the body.
It should be noted that an increase in energy in the human body will necessarily lead to an increase in immunity, which will independently fight cancer cells. Immunity cells are most active in a weakly alkaline environment, therefore contraindications for oncology are any groups of products that lead to blood oxidation.
Anti-cancer foods
Blackberries are a source of health
Oddly enough, products of this kind are ubiquitous, inexpensive and readily available. Representatives of the cruciferous group are considered especially valuable: Brussels and White cabbage, broccoli. The preparation of these products, taking into account the advice of nutritionists, should be done with steam. However, they are best consumed fresh, because during heat treatment, many useful substances are lost.
In addition, tomatoes contain lycopene as an effective anti-cancer agent. In order for the beneficial substances of tomatoes to be better absorbed in the intestines, it is recommended to use them with olive oil.
Interestingly, just 4 grams of garlic per day also helps fight benign and malignant growths. However, garlic is not recommended to be consumed prior to surgery.
Green tea also has an inhibitory effect on neoplasm, which also has a stimulating effect on the liver, helps in blocking carcinogens and detoxifies the body from harmful toxins. The daily norm is 4-6 glasses of green tea. It is best to use green tea in combination with soy.
Anti-cancer spices and herbs
Of the spices and herbs that are commonly used in oncology, turmeric can be noted, which helps to partially prevent the further development of cancerous growths. For turmeric to be absorbed better in the body, it needs to be mixed with ginger or black pepper. It is recommended to take a teaspoon of turmeric during meals. Ginger root has an antitumor effect. It is best used as a decoction or grated. In addition, ginger can help reduce nausea in cancer. Along with this, ginger should be excluded from the diet if an operation is expected to be carried out soon. It is better to change it to fruit of suitable properties.
The development of cancer cells is inhibited by chili peppers. A similar effect is possessed by: red beets, carrots, as well as any other vegetables and fruits that have a yellowish and reddish tint. Carrots should be eaten raw in combination with olive oil. It should be noted that the systematic use of half or a whole tablespoon olive oil helps not only stop the development of the disease, but also prevent the spread of metastases and prevent relapse. Taking vitamin E in oncology is especially important.
Oncology onion
Any natural soy product is a natural source of complete protein. In addition, they contain a huge amount of substances that help neutralize harmful compounds and stop the development of malignant neoplasms.
Many herbs have a blocking effect on oncological diseases: thyme, basil, rosemary, mint, marjoram. In addition, they help in limiting the spread of cancer cells to neighboring tissues and organs.
Oddly enough, mushrooms also help in the fight against cancer, which have a stimulating effect on the immune system. Of course, any mushrooms must be pre-processed before use - all the same, a lot of useful substances will remain in them.
Berries (blackberries, raspberries, blueberries, blueberries, strawberries, wild strawberries), forest and walnuts(pistachios, almonds).
Among the fruits that have a positive effect on cancer, it is worth highlighting the citrus group: tangerines, oranges, grapefruits, lemons. In addition, the peel of these fruits is often used to brew it with tea or make compote. Pomegranate juice also helps.
Nutritional standards for cancer also require foods that contain omega-3 fatty acids in the patient's diet. Surprisingly, fatty acid flaxseed oil and seeds may also be helpful.
In the process of treating cancer, it is extremely important to maintain the correct microflora in the intestines. This can help following products: onions, tomatoes, wheat, asparagus, garlic. Alimentary fiber in large quantities contained in prunes, which also has a good laxative effect. Blueberries will help to reduce the formation of gases, which will also eliminate fermentation and putrefactive processes from the intestines.
From the foregoing, it can be distinguished that in case of cancer, many foods can be included in the diet that will not only help in the treatment of cancer, but also prevent the development of secondary diseases that are provoked by chemotherapy and radiation therapy. A diet for cancer should be prescribed by a nutritionist and an oncologist who are familiar with the characteristics of the patient's body and can provide for the appearance of all negative aspects.

Cancer - Treatment and Prevention Can Accept Any Traffic Thanks to WP Super Cache
Cancer treatment options are not limited to chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and surgery. Along with the implementation of the basic treatment regimen, patients can follow some additional recommendations. This will help strengthen the immune system, improve well-being and help the body fight a serious illness.
1. Try to protect yourself from stress
For successful treatment, it is necessary to mobilize all forces, both physical and mental. And nervous experiences, troubles in the family, conflicts at work - all this has a colossal destructive effect on health. Therefore, the first thing to do is to create for yourself the most comfortable psychological conditions, in which it will be easier to heal and recover.
2. Get more rest, avoid sleep deprivation
The relationship between sleep deprivation and breast cancer is being actively studied abroad. Several research groups have already published the results of their work. It has been found that lack of sleep disrupts the production of sex hormones, so women who work at night or suffer from insomnia are at increased risk of developing breast cancer. There is also evidence that sleep deprivation contributes to the appearance of prostate tumors in men ...
- If your doctor has advised you to change your diet in a certain way, follow the diet recommended by your doctor.
Its main principle is to eat freshly prepared food three times a day. buckwheat porridge from 100g of buckwheat. The dish is cooked in water, you can add herbs (parsley, dill) and garlic to it. Also, half an hour before each meal, you need to eat rosehip flour gruel (fruits ground on a coffee grinder). Keep in mind that the seeds of the rosehip are difficult to grind, so you should not be especially zealous in grinding them.
More detailed information about the Laskin diet and its varieties, as well as a detailed description of the menu options can be found on the Internet or read in the book "Dr. Laskin's Anti-Cancer Diet" by V. Dobkin.
1. After chemotherapy or radiation therapy, patients often develop nausea and aversion to food. But even in such a situation, it is necessary to fully eat so that the body has enough strength to fight the disease. To improve appetite:
- try to cook your favorite dishes that you will eat more willingly;
- season food with spices, they enhance the taste of dishes and reflexively cause a feeling of hunger;
- take "aperitifs": infusion of dill, anise seeds, wormwood; you can look for ready-made products in the pharmacy, for example, “Appetizing” drops.
2. Prefer natural honey to sugar. This product contains several hundred biologically active substances that are beneficial to health. But it is better not to "abuse" them - 2 teaspoons a day will be enough.
4. Drink more, especially during the notorious chemotherapy. This cleanses the body of toxins and metabolites. Pay attention to natural juices and green tea - these are rich sources of antioxidants that help the body to resist disease.
5. Add foods that have anti-cancer properties to your diet. For example, parsley has such. The substance contained in it apigenin is a flavone, a compound with powerful antioxidant and some antitumor effects. Also, similar properties were found in the fruits of mango, avocado, pomegranate.
Supplements and preparations
Below are some of the most popular dietary supplements and drugs that can be used in cancer patients. The list is quite long, so, as you can imagine, we are talking about choosing between the names, and not about accepting them all at the same time.
The drug contains special molecules that are carriers of information about the correct functioning of the immune system. When a medicine is taken, this information is transmitted to the human immune system, which normalizes its work. Numerous studies have shown that the agent enhances antitumor immunity, increases patient survival, improves well-being, which worsened after chemotherapy and radiation therapy, and in some cases even stops the progression of the disease.
2. Alveo (manufactured by Akuna). Dosage - up to 180 ml. in a day.
Alveo herbal harmonizing tonic promotes the drainage of intercellular spaces, the establishment and encouragement of the body's systems. It is also important as a preventive and auxiliary treatment, because it contains unique plant substances, which are little or not at all in food, which harmonize metabolism and optimize physiological functions.
Alveo can be of great help to the body, especially after chemotherapy, which greatly weakens the immune system.
3. Extra-Befungin (produced by Tentorium). Dosage - 1 tsp. three times a day.
The supplement is created on the basis of the extract of the mushroom chaga, St. John's wort and propolis. All of these components are known in traditional medicine as anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial and anti-cancer agents, as well as sources of health-promoting compounds. In cancer patients, dietary supplements can be used for a general improvement in well-being, in the complex of combating anemia, while eliminating the consequences and complications of the main treatment.
The supplement contains the components of three mushrooms (shiitake, maitake, reishi), which are used in traditional medicine in Japan and, according to some reports, have antioxidant and anticancer effects. ANSS helps to avoid or reduce the severity of side effects of therapy, strengthens the immune system, and helps the body recover faster after aggressive and traumatic treatment of tumors.
5. Refnot. A dose of ED per day, is administered in the form of injections according to a specific scheme associated with chemotherapy.
Refnot contains tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF). Normally, this substance is secreted in the human body by macrophages and monocytes. It "stands guard" of the antitumor defense of the body, as it has a detrimental effect on atypical cells... The introduction of tumor necrosis factor in the composition of Refnot improves the condition of patients, improves the effect of chemotherapy.
Incorrect dosages and the wrong dosage regimen can be harmful, so treatment should be carried out only under the supervision of a physician. As an alternative to Refnot, you can use funds that increase the production of your own TNF, for example, the Transfer Factor mentioned above.
In one of the schemes, it is recommended to start taking Melatonin (or Melaxen) with 3 mg and increase the dose by one tablet every day until their number reaches 7. Melatonin is a safe drug for health, and even in a very high dose it will not cause poisoning. However, today this scheme is not approved by specialists, so, perhaps, it should not be used.
The components of the supplement are embedded in cell membranes and maintain their structure. This prevents free radical oxidation, the rate of which increases markedly due to the action of ionizing radiation and chemotherapy drugs, as well as under the influence of the tumor process itself.
Many people are critical of health advice and dietary supplements for cancer. Like, if official medicine cannot defeat cancer, then full sleep, juices, dietary supplements and Transfer Factor will not have the slightest positive effect on a person. This opinion is actively supported by some doctors.
By all "norms", this woman should have already died or be at the last stage of cancer. But for some reason the disease develops in her much more slowly than "it should be". Now she feels well, works, continues to be treated in her own way.
Contraindications for cancer
Predictions for a decrease in the number of cancer patients are not yet very encouraging. But still, millions of people are already known who have overcome the disease or are in a state of stable remission. Every year, about 10 million cases are registered on the planet, but the almost 30 million who have overcome this disease are also impressive.
What foods shouldn't be consumed and why?
The nature of the diet plays an important role in the development of malignant and benign tumors. Cancer patients are advised to reduce their intake of high-calorie and fatty foods, especially those high in fat. On the other hand, proteins should not be abandoned; their amount in the diet can be increased.
Vitamins only as prescribed by a doctor!
Recent research by scientists suggests that thoughtless intake of vitamin supplements not only does not protect against cancer, but can also contribute to its development. For example, although vitamin E acts as an antioxidant for the body and protects it from the action of harmful molecules, however, in large doses it affects oxidative processes the opposite way, damaging cells.
No smoking!
About 20% of the responsibility for morbidity is assumed by this bad habit. It is she who is among the most famous factors that contribute to the rapid development of the disease. The carcinogens contained in the smoke are in the tens. Having learned about cancer, you will have to quit smoking once and for all. It has been scientifically proven that cancer patients who smoke cancer develop faster than non-smokers due to a weakened body and poor immunity.
Saunas and sun tanning: contraindications and their causes
There is a stereotype in society that speaks in favor of heat for health and associates cold with our diseases. But any thermal procedures during an exacerbation of cancer are categorically contraindicated.
Cancer and alcohol are incompatible!
You should also fight excessive alcohol consumption. Doctors recommend eliminating alcoholic beverages even for patients with milder illnesses. For cancer patients, especially during the period of chemotherapy, alcohol is contraindicated and can lead to unpredictable consequences, up to and including death. If spirits increase the likelihood of developing cancer in the liver, mouth and esophagus, then imagine how seriously they can destroy the already damaged parts of the organs?
Massage only from trusted specialists!
Most therapy schools are in favor of the fact that massage is contraindicated in malignant tumors and can provoke metastasis due to its effect on blood circulation. Some scientists refute these statements, however, they recommend contacting only experienced oncologists. If your doctor does not prohibit massage, then it is not contraindicated for you, but the specialist should be familiar with the technique of the procedure for cancer patients and consult with your doctor about the duration of the course and its intensity.
Other contraindications for cancer
Cancer patients should avoid anything that stimulates metabolism, negatively affects the body, or somehow weakens the immune system.
About the dangers of self-medication
You should not self-medicate, get involved in non-traditional methods (hirudotherapy, aromatherapy, cryo- and urine therapy, acupuncture, manual therapy), drink healing herbs and fees, unless agreed and prescribed by the attending physician. For example, aromatherapy, shown for many diseases, can worsen the health of cancer patients, since essential oils often help to remove drugs from the body and can negatively affect the final result of therapy. You should also exclude all measures for intensive cleansing of the body, and refrain from any kind of diets. They weaken your body and allow disease to progress.
