Why is Alternative Medicine For Cancer Treatment Ignored?

I don't have to tell you how dangerous cancer is and how big of a problem it is, that is common sense. Huge amount of money is spent for cancer research every year and you would expect that things are getting better and more and more people are beating cancer. But the results are opposite - cancer is rapidly increasing and people can't beat cancer. Alternative medicine for cancer treatment is ignored like a hot potato. Why?

Why don't the cancer "experts" want you to know about alternative medicine for cancer treatment?

A lot of natural remedies and cures have been found for cancer over the years. But the problem is that each one of them is categorised as "unproven remedies." Okay, I understand that some remedies would be classified as "unproven," but you would expect that at least a few them would be heavily researched and found to have some use. But no! Even worse, some discoverers of these remedies were sued and even sent to jail. All of these remedies of course can't be patented and sold for huge profits.

Drug companies have a lot of power and they can influence pretty much everything. The goal for these drug companies is to sell drugs for profits, not to help the average person. That is the conclusion that a lot of people come to. You may agree or disagree, but surely alternative medicine can't have 0 benefits.

It would be great if both synthetical remedies and natural remedies would co-exist, so every person could make a choice. but that is not the case because the U. S. Federal law states that no natural substance can be advertised as a cure for any condition. But you can get a very expensive prescription drug for every illness or disease.

A lot of money is made from selling chemotherapy drugs. Drug companies spend billions of dollars each year for advertising their drugs. The fight against cancer itself, is much less of a problem, than the fight against greedy drug companies. There is no need to exercise, eat healthy and take essential vitamins and minerals, if you can get a prescription drug, that solves all the problems.

This is told to the people every single day for years and years. Finally this brainwashing has to pay off and it has. Only now are people breaking free from this and re-discovering alternative treatments and remedies for cancer and other diseases.

The more people know about cancer treatments, the more effective the treatment is. For example the "Cancer Free" e-book by Bill Henderson, is a fantastic source of non-toxic natural cancer remedies. If you combine that with conventional medicine, then your chances of beating cancer increase dramatically.

Cancer Remedies - If Medicine Can't Help Are There Any Natural Cancer Treatments?

It is devastating for someone to be told that medicine has run out of options and there is no more treatment that can be offered. Some patients adapt to what they consider the inevitable. However some people fight tooth and nail to have a longer period of time before they die. They want to explore every option. Is this realistic? Are there any cancer remedies or natural cancer treatments that have been shown to work?

The official medical answer to that is, no, or medicine would be using them. However it has to be acknowledged that there are some people who, despite their medical prognosis, do much better than expected, and most medical people have no idea why that is. Much research has been done but few doctors know of it and even fewer believe that it is their role to tell patients about it.

I was talking to a medical professor about the research which showed that cancer patients who exercised did much better, on average than those who didn't exercise and about other research which showed that psychological stresses lead to reduced immune function. He knew the research existed, but did not believe it was his role to tell people how to live their lives and so was very vague about the results.

When asked whether a woman with breast cancer would want to know that if she undertook three hours of moderate exercise a week she might cut the chance of future cancer problems in half, he just shrugged his shoulders. It was the same when asked if someone with high blood pressure might like to know that good social support helps regulate their cardiovascular system. He made some comment about such research coming up in the year 3 medical curriculum but there was no emphasis on it thereafter. It wasn't his role to go into the psychosocial mire of people's lives.

It was similar when we talked about diet. When presented with evidence that some foods can reduce the damage done by sunlight (hence a skin cancer preventive), other foods which reduced the chance of mutation damage, nutrients which helped the body attack the cancer cells, he drew himself up to his full height and said, "I very much doubt it." He turned away.

What is really sad is that this doctor is one who believes he is open to research, open to alternatives and there to meet the needs of his patients.

To be fair, there is a huge amount of research out there. It is impossible for one person to stay up to date in regards to every aspect of medicine. This is even more difficult for the family physician or general practitioner who must cover all disciplines. Most of them make do with the guidelines given to them by governments and drug companies.

There is also the huge impact of the pharmaceutical companies who provide instant answers to dealing with the patient in the consultation. If the patient can leave the surgery with a prescription, in very many cases, both practitioner and patient are happy.

A great many when faced with matters of severe illness need to trust their doctor and just accept what they are told.

However there are a group who remember the few that do much better than expected and the cases of miracles they hear about in their religious tradition and on the TV. Many of these want to know, in detail, everything possible which might improve their outcomes. Sadly few medical professionals can tell them.

But now with the internet and the huge amount of information online it is possible for people who need to know to find out what they can do to improve their chances of recovery. I do offer a word of warning. It is not likely that there is just one herb, or highland berry, or magical elixir which will make the difference in terminal disease. It is much more likely that your cancer remedy will be a mixture of a healing diet, exercise, good self care, a useful psychology, social support and a connection to nature and place.

The fact that some people do much better than expected indicates that there is a physiological process by which cancers can regress and sometimes disappear altogether. So do keep hope alive and in the meantime explore what improves your quality of life. As one of the survivors in my research said, "Quality, quality, make every second count."
