How Laetrile and Vitamin C Help Kill Cancer

Posted by Marie on August 31st, 2011

Laetrile and Vitamin C are two lesser-known cancer treatments that can make a huge impact on the spread of this disease.  Used in conjunction with DMSO as an alternative cancer treatment program, these two vitamins offer an extremely effective cancer treatment with fewer side effects and far less stress to the patient.

What is Laetrile?
Also known as amygdalin or vitamin B17, laetrile is a substance that works to target and kill cancer cells using its own natural offenses.  A laetrile molecule consists of three substances:

  1. Glucose (a simple sugar)
  2. Hydrogen cyanide
  3. Benzaldehyde

A cancer cell contains many sugar transporters which grab sugar from the bloodstream and draw it into the cell to provide energy.  As the laetrile molecule approaches, the cancer cell drags it inside and attempts to metabolize it.  However, once inside, the laetrile molecule releases toxic cyanide and benzaldehyde and kills the cell.  Due to this release of a toxic substance, there has been much controversy over the use of laetrile in the medical field, but it is now known that this metabolism pattern does not occur in normal cells and the laetrile affects only cancerous tissue.

How Does Vitamin C Help Fight Cancer?
Laetrile is often used in conjunction with therapeutic doses of vitamin C.  It’s widely known that a diet rich in vitamins is an excellent way to prevent cancer, but vitamin C can also help fight cancer once it has already developed.

Vitamin C is an antioxidant, meaning that it scavenges damaging free radicals from the body and helps prevent cancer long-term.  These free radicals, or molecules with unpaired electrons, can cause DNA damage to cells in the body.  Since damaged DNA is what causes cells to mutate into cancer cells, vitamin C supplementation can help prevent the formation and spread of cancer.  It’s also essential for maintaining good health and a strong immune system, so supplementation during cancer treatment has additional benefits on top of killing cancer cells.

An alternative cancer treatment clinics consult can help determine the best course of action for treatment.  Used in conjunction with DMSO, laetrile and vitamin C have the potential to kill cancer cells and bring patients into remission.

4 Ways DMSO Works to Treat Cancer

Posted by Marie on August 23rd, 2011

DMSO, or dimethyl sulfoxide, is a byproduct of wood pulp that is completely safe for humans and has been proven extremely effective in alternative cancer care.  Though radiation and chemotherapy are the most commonly prescribed treatments for cancer, it’s important for patients to know that other options exist and DMSO could save their lives.

Originally discovered in Russia in 1866, DMSO’s therapeutic benefits were originally noted in the 20th century by Dr. Stanley Jacob.  It is FDA-approved as a treatment for bladder inflammation and to reduce brain swelling, but research has found it remarkably effective in reducing the size of malignant tumors and bringing cancer patients into remission.  DMSO works in four ways to fight cancer.

  1. Re-activates programmed cell death in cancer cells.  In a normal body cell, if the cell’s DNA becomes damaged it will “shut down” and cease to reproduce.  If the damaged cell can’t repair itself, it will go into programmed cell death to avoid causing damage to the body.In a cancerous cell, this programmed cell death doesn’t happen – meaning that the damaged cell becomes “immortal” and continues to replicate.  These ceaselessly replicating cells eventually form a tumor.  In a documented study, DMSO re-activates the programmed cell death mechanisms in cancerous cells.  This means that cancerous cells will begin to die off after exposure to DMSO, and the tumor will shrink over the course of treatment.
  2. Acts as a potent carrier molecule.  In the body, DMSO binds with water molecules and can pass through cell membranes, pulling in with it helpful substances that normally could not permeate the outside of the cell.  This allows medications and the immune system to destroy cancerous cells much more efficiently and without damaging healthy tissue.
  3. Helps to reverse malignant cells.  DMSO also helps to reverse or ”differentiate” malignant cells back into normal cells.  It decreases the energy level of cancerous cells and turns them benign.
  4. Scavenges free radicals.  Chemically reactive free radicals roaming around the body are a known cause of cancer.  A diet high in fruits and vegetables – particularly those high in vitamin C – is the core of any anti-cancer regimen, but DMSO is known to scavenge potent hydroxyl radicals and interfere with cancer’s development.

Taken during comfortable sessions in conjunction with Vitamin C and Vitamin B17, (also known as Amygdalin or Laetrile), DMSO is an astoundingly effective alternative treatment and a safe solution to cancer.  For more information on DMSO cancer treatment, visit us online.

Immunotherapy Study Pushes Alternative Cancer Care into the Limelight

Posted by Marie on August 16th, 2011

According to a study recently published in the New England Journal of Medicine, a small group of patients with advanced cases of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (or CLL) responded extremely well to an unconventional treatment and are all in remission one year later.  The patients were given a genetically-modified version of their immune system’s own T cells, which destroy tumors by identifying specific proteins on another cell that mark it as cancerous.

In the study, researchers removed samples of each patient’s own natural T cells and gave the cells an artificial receptor for a protein called CD19, which is found on cancerous cells in leukemia patients.  The genetically modified T cells attacked more cancer cells than they would have had they not been modified.

The patients in the study had tried other, more mainstream treatments for cancer with less success, and the results they achieved with genetic T cell therapy are demonstrating that alternative cancer therapies are often an excellent choice for patients.  Mainstream medicine is beginning to recognize alternative cancer care as a viable and successful option more than ever before.

Several of Camelot Cancer Care’s treatments also focus on improving immune function with safe and FDA-approved therapies.  Ultraviolet blood irradiation, or UVBI, is an alternative treatment option that – like genetic T cell therapy – boosts the immune system to kill cancer cells.  Not to be confused with radiation therapy, UVBI involves passing the blood through crystal tubing and exposing it to a frequency of UV light that kills bacterial and viral cells.  These dead cells serve as antigens, which trigger the immune system and help it to recognize and kill cancerous cells.  This FDA-approved treatment has few side effects and is an excellent way to safeguard a patient’s body against recurrence.

Coley’s toxins, also called mixed bacterial vaccine or fever therapy, is another treatment which triggers an immune response that recognizes tumor cells as invaders and kills them.   The therapy introduces a mixture of bacterial cultures that activate the immune system, and it has been shown to be effective in many soft tissue sarcomas and osteosarcomas.

Mainstream medicine is beginning to accept and endorse other forms of cancer treatment.  This exciting new research is bringing patients’ and doctors’ attention to alternative cancer solutions and paving the way for other therapies to take a more prominent role in the treatment of cancer.

Camelot’s First Patient Discusses Success

Lorelaine Negron

Posted by admin on July 25th, 2011

Ms. Negron is a 39-year-old retail store manager, with Stage IV recurrent appendiceal/ovarian carcinoma, biopsy confirmed. She was first diagnosed in 2002 when she underwent surgery for acute appendicitis. Surgery and pathology reports revealed adenocarcinoma of appendix with perforation of the small intestine, and progression to the uterus, ovaries, peritoneum & omentum. Patient underwent radical hysterectomy & colostomy in October of 2007, and contracted VRE (Vancomycin resistant enterococcus) in the ICU, and her urine was found to have a heavy concentration of candida albicans, which is typical finding in most cancer patients.

Lori had extensive standard chemotherapy postop, but by December of 2010, scans revealed both lung & liver nodules. (The latter were successfully resected.) She began DMSO/B17 based intravenous treatment at Camelot on January 18th of 2010. She also received not only Coleys Toxins & UVBI (Ultraviolet Blood Irradiation, aka photoluminescence) but, at her brother’s insistence, she was treated with every weapon in Camelot’s alternative arsenal. Her colostomy has now been taken down. (Reversed, with reconnection.) Her recent post treatment PET scan was negative, much to the joy and relief of Lori and her family. Most significant was the radiologist’s note on her report that he found “no evidence of former cancer activity in the liver.” It should be noted that Dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO), when administered intravenously, saturates all soft tissues throughout the body… including, of course, lungs and liver. It also crosses the blood/brain barrier. It leaves nowhere for cancer cells to hide.

 

Anna Gumnitsky

Mrs. Gumnitsky, a 50-year-old female homemaker from Ohio, diagnosed with breast cancer. (Infiltrating ductile carcinoma) as confirmed by thermal imaging, mammography and core biopsy. Patient has a family history: mother, father and grandfather all died from breast cancer, therefore she likely carries the gene.

Patient scans and exam revealed lesion in right breast behind nipple at 9 o’clock position, confirmed by biopsy as invasive ductile carcinoma, scans showed numerous calcifications.

She began treatment at Camelot on January 25th, 2010. Her post treatment PET scan on February 22nd revealed the lesion had been contained, with no evidence of disease progression. There was also dramatic reduction in both size and metabolic activity level, (SUV numbers had dropped down to 2.6, which indicate reduced uptake in adenopathy of the glucose isotopes) after one 20 day round of DMSO based intravenous treatment, plus Coleys Toxins and UVBI (Ultraviolet Blood Irradiation.) She is continuing further intravenous treatment from home at this writing (Camelot provides training in aseptic technique for self administration.) The patient speaks broken English, but managed to convey that she feels well and has returned to her normal routine. At her current rate of response to treatment, we are optimistic this breast cancer case will eventually resolve as her treatment continues through another 20 day round, or perhaps two.

Randy Clair

Posted by admin on July 21st, 2011

Mr. Clair is a 63 year old male farmer from Illinois, with a family history of prostate cancer. (Both his father & brother suffered from it.) He had been experiencing the usual symptoms of frequency and mild voiding dysfunction, growing worse until his urination had become obstructive and he was no longer able to get a good nights sleep.

His biopsy confirmed the malignancy, but he refused the radical surgery offered, as well as standard chemotherapy and radiation. He had witnessed what the toxic side effects had done to other family members and wanted no part of it. Randy contacted Camelot in January, and asked how long it would take to go through treatment for his prostate cancer. His remark was “I am a farmer, so I need to get this taken care of in the dead of winter.”

Randy arrived at Camelot and began treatment on February 17th of 2009, continuing for 20 days. He completed it by mid- March, and reported back that he was relieved, but not surprised, when his PET scan report came back negative, meaning all clear, with no evidence of any “hot spots” left. He said he “could pretty much figure the problem was fixed” when his urinary symptoms had subsided. Randy’s wife, grown children and grandkids were all celebrating the news. And Randy? Always quiet and soft spoken, only said “I want to thank you folks for helping me put this behind me in time before spring planting.”

Christine Ferri

Posted by admin on July 21st, 2011

Mrs. Ferri, a 42-year-old homemaker and mother of 3, from New Jersey, with a history of recurrent glioblastoma . Christine’s brain tumor was first diagnosed back in 2000, when she had a seizure when she was six months pregnant. Her first surgery to debulk it was done soon after she had delivered her baby… the biopsy confirmed low-grade glioma. She declined conventional chemo and radiation, and was able to enjoy a relatively uneventful few years before the malignancy accelerated and became more aggressive, and the seizures began again. She underwent another craniotomy and subtotal tumor resection in March of 2009. Christine related the harrowing experience of being told the risks, with or without surgery: (chance of significant and near total paralysis of left side, cerebrospinal fluid leakage, infection, bleeding, stroke, coma & death.) Christine arrived at Camelot two weeks postop, and began treatment with intravenous DMSO/B17 formula. She completed two 20-day rounds and recently received her post treatment PET scan. The final impression paragraph of the scan report says it all: “There is no evidence of recurrent tumor in the postoperative cavity in the high right parietal region.” Christine reports that her symptoms have resolved and her life has returned to her normal routine. She remarked she was very relieved and grateful to be healed and able to see her three small sons grow up.

Dear Fellow Cancer Fighters,
I have been asked to write something detailing my experience using DMSO as my chosen treatment when I had adenocarcinoma of the colon. First I want to say, my prayers are with all of you, because I know the trauma of having been diagnosed with cancer. I was diagnosed with colon cancer of the ascending colon, July 2005. I went to CTCA (Cancer Treatment Centers of America-in Tulsa, OK) with the intent of having surgery, and was not informed that I was in Stage 3 (lymph node positive, with 85% chance of recurrence) until I awoke from surgery. I was told the next step was chemo. But, having seen the results of chemo with family and friends, I knew it was not something I wanted to go through. At the time I went to CTCA, I was under the impression that they offered alternative medicine. I was not aware that it was actually “integrative” medicine, meaning the use of surgery, chemo, radiation as well as nutrition, acupuncture etc.. The point, that chemo and radiation played a big part in their medical protocol. I was to learn that natural alternative treatments like DMSO were not offered nor sanctioned by CTCA. I only found out about DMSO through other cancer patients who were receiving it.

I chose DMSO as my only course of treatment, following my surgery. I’ve had a total of 11 rounds of treatment (editor’s note: 1 round = 20 days), never taken any drugs of any kind for the cancer. November 28, 2005 I chose to have a PET scan done to confirm what I knew by then, no sign of cancer was the result.

I know DMSO is something we are not taught as a method to deal with cancer. But when I looked at all the people I knew that did use the conventional method we are taught to use, I felt I didn’t have a choice but to give my body a better chance to fight on its own.

I don’t regret my choice. Maureen and Nancy are truly interested in helping people. I trust them and I would tell anyone, DMSO should be the first choice, not the last, because before you undergo standard chemo and radiation, your body still has somewhat of an immune system. I hope this helps. Please feel free to contact me.
