Conventional Medicine May Not Be Your Answer

Many cancer patients regret not doing their own research prior to the removal of a part of their body.  I urge you to take the time to read, research, and talk with others that can help open your mind to other possibilities.  Many cancer survivors may have opted for the non-conventional methods of dealing with the cancer prognosis. if given the information to decide.

All drugs are toxic to your body.  While your body is trying to fight off a disease, do you really want to give your body more toxins to contend with?  There is nothing in your body that is a drug but there is plenty of evidence that a drug is toxic to your body.

Cancer is grossly mistreated by the medical community, insurance companies and the United States government. 

It is no secret that the medical community treats disease symptoms, not the disease itself.  The current status quo is that when a diagnosis is given, the cancer needs to be cut out.  Most people go the same route because that is what the medical community tells cancer patients. There are no options when you talk with medical doctors.  Even the insurance companies only allow the same treatment for each patient.  Is it any wonder that over 50% of the cancer patients suffer with depression after their diagnosis of cancer?

There are many options your doctor probably doesn’t know about.  Ask other doctors, such as a naturopath for their opinions, ask forums or cancer patients, but get your answers.

Many people have bought into that notion that there are only the medical options for decades.  I am not one of them.  I chose life on my own terms!  Thankfully, the number of people that chose non-medical alternatives is growing.

In the year 1992, 220,000 people died of cancer.  Twenty five years later the government threw 39 billion dollars at cancer, for research.  In 1996, 560,000 people died of cancer.  Twice as many people as in 1972.  Is the cancer cell getting smarter or are we wasting money on a cure that already exists?

Lots of people are still dying from the disease.  Yes, we have a lot more survivors but ask them how many times they have had reoccurrences and 50% of them will say at least once within five years.  Is surgery and radiation the only answer?  I say, NO.

Cancer can be managed and sometimes reversed with organic foods and highly concentrated juices.  If you have not heard of the Gerson Therapy, The Bruzinski Clinic, Dr. Joel Fuhrman, or any of the doctors that may be “controversial” to the medical community, you owe it to yourself to check them out.  Your answers may be different from mine.  Do what works for you.  For me, a naturopath doctor that happened to specialize in nutrition was my choice.  When diagnosed with cancer, just know that the medical community is not your only avenue.  You owe it to yourself to check out a variety of avenues.  The Gerson Therapy has been available since 1928 but very few cancer patients hear about it.  It is a huge commitment to your own health but you owe it to yourself to check it out.

The medical community does not give patients a choice in the matter.  If you are going to beat the disease, you have to take the responsibility.  It is not for everyone, but it was for me.  Taking responsibility is a tough pill to swallow for most patients but I have never gone for “status quo” in anything I have done and when it comes to the fight of and for my life, I will give it my all once again.  I knew what I had to do and chose not to go under the knife, have radiation and pray for a cure that wasn’t coming.

For many people, it is much easier to go to a surgeon, have a breast(s) removed and go through radiation treatments then chemotherapy and pray the cancer doesn’t come back.  That is certainly a choice many have chosen but what if they were given another choice?  What if the first steps were nutrition and psychiatric therapies instead of an appointment with a surgeon?  Would these people still have their body parts intact and still have a good life?  Would they never have to worry about cancer again?

There are many that believe the body can heal itself if given the right nutrients.  I am one of those.  You may be also if you are reading this blog.

I will be the first person to admit that it is really tough to find alternative medicine people, but they do exist.  The search is worth the time. I happen to find a naturopath doctor myself that specializes in nutrition.  I also spend a tremendous amount of time reading books, researching on the web (credible websites) and I have also learned to open my mind to more than just what the medical community had to offer me as a cancer patient.
