Liz and Catherine,
these topics repeat themselves. That is no fault of yours - it is just the nature of these lists. There are always new members coming on stream who don't know what has been discussed before.
First of all let me say that I don't know whether Dr.Budwig wrote of herself that she had been nominated for the Nobel Prize. She was always very factual, truthful and scientific without any exaggerations. She alienated the money makers of this world because she chose to pursue the truth rather than bend to their demands. That is why she is not better known and not accepted by the establishment.
We have discussed Dr.Weil's off-handed and misleading remarks about Dr.Budwig at some length. I don't want to get into it now. Check the archives and you will find a lot on it. But since the Nobel Prize nominations are brought up again, check message # 17779. I will copy the gist of it here:
"Hi Rick,
Coming back to the German web page you posted.
It says near the beginning, in a letter written by Brkki Halme, Professor, Senator h.c., that he nominated Dr.Budwig for the Nobel Prize in 1985. So much for Dr.Weil's statement that the nominations don't mean much because anybody can nominate. Prof. Halme is not just anybody! He also runs (or is instrumental in) a clinic in Finland where Dr.Budwig's method is used with great success (I read that elsewhere)."
Yes, that is only one of the 6 or 7 nominations usually quoted but does it matter? I am sure more proof of other nominees will come to light as we keep reading.

Yes, this is true...I never placed much credence in it b/c early on in my
cancer searched I went to andrew weil's website and he says to take with a grain
of salt all her nominations because you can nominate youself. However, it
hasnt made a particle bit of difference in my opinion of the Budwig
protocol...which I hope and believe is a very worthwhile, helpful treatment.
