There are numerous
discussions on treatments of cancer and tumour , the effectiveness and survival ratings, chemo
therapy treatments, and other alternative therapy like the practice of Natural Healing, are practical topics amongst us worldwide. Despite being a layman in medicine, we should have a duty to know the whole truth and find the right doctor as this is a matter of life and death.
Some suggests that Study shows Chemo is only 2.1%
effective toward 5 year survival and declined against Electrotherapy and chemotherapy on cancer.
Professor PC Leung considered that Exercises involving stretching and control breathing are
among the most important measures for the maintenance of health and natural
healing, according to the ancient Chinese Classic on Medicine.
As to Dr. Jeremy Henson, Cancer is a leading
cause of death in Australia accounting for 3 in every 10 deaths and claiming
the lives of more Australian children than any other disease. Cancer cells have
activated an immortality mechanism that allows them, and the tumour, to keep
growing forever. Normal cells don't have these immortality mechanisms; they
simply get old. The current treatments do not work for many cancer
patients and have long lasting side-effects in survivors. Jeremy is
"Finding a way of doing in cancer patients that could provide a
low-side-effect therapy to treat the disease.”
It is also said that Cancer is a disease of the immune
system and inappropriate treatments and unhealthy way of living may
weaken immunity.

The popularity is clear. The popularity is historically
and culturally linked. The practice requires little cost. The practice can be
easily verified at different levels of personal practice. But if one considers
that scientific proof is of paramount importance, what we are clear today,
remains scanty, non-specific, and partial.
Meditation is another essential component in the pursuit
of health.
Natural
Healing is strongly linked to the philosophy of Taoism. Natural Healing for
Traditional Chinese Medicine compiles the three components of physical,
physiological and psychosocial harmony which are all interlinked. The ancient
healers, through so many years of practice, have worked out varieties of means
to help boostering the state of harmony.
Indeed, Natural Healing in Chinese Medicine exists as a
complete system with a strong philosophical basis, involves careful
professional, i.e. medical conceptualization, defines complicated methodologies
of practice, and in recent years, commands organized social networks for its
promotion (Wang, 2007; Lic, 2003).
Respiration is controlled
which include extra-long inspiration or extra-long expiration. Abdominal or
diaphragmatic breathing and the pelvic diaphragm and anal sphincters are also
squeezed at will. Intentional controlled breathing is making use of the somatic nervous activity to initiate
stimulation on the autonomic nervous system, which has wide connections with
the internal organs and therefore opens up new channels of communication with
the internal organs under rational intension that the practice pushes the qi
through the internal organs to help building a state of physiological harmony.
In 2004, the Beijing Sport
University conducted a clinical study on the effects of Qi Gong on the physical
ability of a group of people aged from 50 to 70. This is a clear indication
that the ability of the heart among this group of middle age and older age
people to adapt to higher demand of physical activities improved with the Qi
Gong. Respiratory function also improved after the period of training (Tsang
and Chow, 2005).
Like Qi Gong, Tai Chi is
believed to have preventive function against infection and other pathological
changes. Investigating immunology related changes should throw light on the
assumption. The interleukins (IL’s) are a group of cytokines created by
mononuclear cells regulating cellular activities. IL2 is probably the most
important member which controls the survival of T cells, NK cells and B cells,
and is actively involved in anti-cancer activities.
As to Dr. Jeremy Henson,
Cancer is a leading cause of death in Australia, accounting for 3 in every 10
deaths and claiming the lives of more Australian children than any other
disease. Cancer cells have activated an immortality mechanism that allows them
,and the tumour, to keep growing forever. Normal cells don't have these
immortality mechanisms; they simply get old. The current treatments do not work for many cancer
patients and have long lasting side-effects in survivors. Jeremy is
"Finding a way of doing in cancer patients that could provide a
low-side-effect therapy to treat the disease.” [2]At the heart of Jeremy’s field of interest is alternative
lengthening of telomeres (ALT), one of two mechanisms which cancers rely on to
keep growing indefinitely. These mechanisms are active in cancer cells but not
in normal human cells, so inhibiting them can kill cancer cells without harming
the regular ones. Ultimately, he would like a blood test for cancer that he’s
developed to become a clinical test, which could benefit many patients,
including those with lung cancer.
Electrotherapy and chemotherapy
Case: Here’s what I did. I had surgery to remove the tumour
first.
I did not have chemo or radiation before the surgery.
During the surgery the doctor discovered that the cancer had spread to my lymphnodes (Stage 3). After surgery the doctors recommended 9-12 months of chemotherapy.
I declined, which was not a popular decision. Most of my family thought I was crazy and it took several years and multiple cancer free reports before they came around.

I believe that in some cases surgery makes sense; to get
as much cancer out as possible and give your body a jump start in dealing with
whatever cancerous cells are left.
In other cases surgery can cause the cancer to spread.
It’s a bit of a gamble…
Knowing what I know now, I probably would have postponed
surgery,
pursued hardcore natural methods first and had the doctors monitor my progress closely.

If you’ve read my posts on chemotherapy then you know that my
reasons to reject chemotherapy were:
-It causes permanent damage throughout the body
-It destroys your immune system, which is the most
critical component in getting well.
-It is a highly toxic carcinogen that can cause secondary
cancers throughout the body.
-The reports of its effectiveness are grossly
exaggerated.
A groundbreaking 14 year study was published in the
Journal of Clinical Oncology in December 2004 called “The Contribution of Cytotoxic Chemotherapy to 5-year
Survival in Adult Malignancies”.
One very powerful approach is converting to the Raw Vegan Diet to alkalize, detox, and flood
your body with the nutrients it needs to heal itself.
This consists of:
