Re: A request for testimony

 

"But bring that up in the wrong forum and you are toast."

Toasted, roasted and fried in oil!

I swear, there's an FDA representative on the board who keeps everyone in check. Even mention anything non-"evidence based" and you'll get your head handed to you on a cardboard platter.

I would approach any illness like a marathon. Get in shape, for cryin' out loud! Stop smokin', drinkin', and get your ass out there and start movin' if you want to stay alive. Instead, it's "where do I go to stick my arm out; gimme your best chemicals."

I don't get it. Nope, I sure don't.

Barb,
The progression, as I understand it, is that aracihdonic acid (from
eating beef) is converted into 5-HETE (the substance cancer eats)
through 5-lo. 5-lo inhibitors are many times also cox-2 inhibitors
(the ones that the doc prescribes for arthritis etc) They are
finding that some of these cox-2 inhibitors also inhibit 5-lo and
therefore inhibit 5-HETE which is in turn is supposed to starve the
cancer. Among the list of cox-2 inhibitors are: aspirin, ibuprofen,
celebrex and naturals like gingerol, curcumin and boswellia. Some
of
the cox-2 inhibitors are also reported to help with apoptosis (cell

Re: Interesting data about sunshine

 

Unfortunately, Dr. Holick's studies, underwritten by the tanning
industry, may cause more damage than lack of vitamin D every could.
Our society is already becoming tanaholic... and the incidences of
melanoma are rising rapidly. As a stage III melanoma patient, I urge
you not to spread that article around to people who would interpret
it to mean that getting a tan is healthy. A tan is the body's way of
reacting to sun damage. UV Rays (A and B) are toxic. Be careful not
to overexpose yourself. There are other ways to get vitamin D.

Re: A request for testimony

I do not have prostate cancer but a high psa and enlarged prostate. I have
been on the flaxseed oil protocol for about two months as a preventive
measure. I injured by knee playing tennis years ago and have worn a knee
elastic band for years. Probably 15 years or so. I could not walk to the
bath room first thing in the morning without a slight limp. I cannot explain
it but about three weeks ago I noticed my knee not hurting and no
discomfort. I have not worn my knee band now for about three weeks and
cannot believe how it feels. I can only explain that since I started the
FO/CC that something has happened to my knee. After 15 years of discomfort
without the elastic knee band what can I say. I take FO/CC religiously every
day. I also noticed several early morning "old age aches and pains" are
gone. Taking FO/CC cannot hurt you. You have nothing to loose and everything
to gain. Follow the plan, don't change anything and after three to four
weeks you be the judge.

I have enjoyed everyone's feedback for a few weeks now. Without
going into the archives to attempt to determine the answer myself, I
would like to ask the group if the majority of you are, in fact,
battling a disease or do you take flaxseed oil as a preventive
measure? Personally, I'm convinced of the efficacy of Essential
Fatty Acids to protect us from a variety of ailments and I use it for
that purpose (in my case, mild arthritis).

The reason I ask is this: I participate on a discussion board where
melanoma patients of every "stage" post their treatments--the vast
majority of which involve conventional medicine (radiation, drugs and
surgery). I mentioned that I had read quite a bit about Johanna
Budwig's alleged cure for a variety of ailments, including cancer.
Since the "treatment" is innocuous and involves a nutrient (EFA) we
need anyway, why not incorporate the Budwig Diet with the view
that "it can't hurt and might help, so why not?"

Well, you'd have thought I asked them to dance naked in Times Square
as part of their treatment. On a conventional discussion board,
you're practically drawn and quartered for endorsing (or even
suggesting) anything other than pharmaceuticals, surgery or
radiation, it appears, but that particular board is dedicated to
melanoma (my particular focus), so I continue to visit and post. Now
I'm wondering, however, how many Budwig success stories of cures for
actual diseases do we have among the 600+ members of this board?

Any feedback? Thanks.

PROSTATE SIZE REDUCTION WITHOUT DRUGS

 

DIET OVERHAUL!!!!!!

Will reduce your prostate inflammation, not drugs.
Speaking from my own experience,,,,,
I no longer:
Dribble after peeing.
Suffer from ejaculation jet lag.
Run to the WC (water closet) in a frenzy.
Carry a jar by my side in the car.
Get up 2 + Xs (plus times) throughout the night with urgencies to urinate.
My bladder still does not empty first time around, and by pressing
repeatedly below stomach, backflushing and kegeling I've shown improvement. (from a
weak to a strong stream)

Processed foods, alcohol, spicy salsa, coffee, carbonated drinks, and downing
3 + beers to name a few will cause me to tailspin, and bring back the bad old
days.

Also, sugar is a killer if you let it get out of hand.
Exercise 3-5 Xs weekly, watch your weight (BMI 19-24)
Stay within range of all your lab work.
Incorporate Flax oil (Barlean's) blended with cottage cheese daily.
Just like it worked for me so can it work for you.
Hang in with us & your system will reward you with improved good health.

Re: Can one drink the occasional black coffee

Hi Roy

Coffee will deplete the necessary 'B' vitamins used in the
conversion/elongation of the omega 3s. However if you were to
compensate for loss of 'B' vitamins or take FO/CC at a different time,
you might not 'stop the Budwig from ridding cancer'?

Roy,
I would avoid coffee. It is not in the Budwig Diet. If you want to get well on this Diet or on any nutritional program, you try to optimize in everything you eat, drink or do. Here is a website on coffee (there may be better ones):

A note to the moderator

cathcoy
 

Immediately after posting my "Request for Testimony," I realized that
the "Files" section of this group contains a wealth of information--
practically exactly what I asked for, except that there are no
testimonials for melanoma.

I think, then, that you can disregard my previous post as I believe
I'll get my answers from "Files."

Many thanks.

I love it...and so true. Your point is well-taken -- if it can't hurt, and
might OH MY GOSH HELP...why not give it a go. But bring that up in the wrong
forum and you are toast. My personal situation is one of watchful waiting.
Almost two years ago, I was treated for breast cancer -- chemo, radiation,
surgery -- and am keeping the Budwig protocol on the back burner in case it is
needed. In the meantime, I take 3 T of freshly ground flax seed everyday and make
sure to get my sunlight.

fo/cc and digestion

Barb
 

When I have the flaxseed oil and yogurt, it takes
me a while to digest it!!! It kills my appetite.
Is that because fats take longer to digest? I
am using more yogurt than necessary. It makes
the flaxseed oil go down better. However I have
never had trouble with yogurt before so assuming
it's the flaxseed oil. I am using the lignant
type but I am not adding the actual flaxseed yet.

Re: F/O and Champagne for the extremely ill

Paul Cates
 

This is where I red about the use of alcohol being used to transport
nutrients.

"Resveratrol :- Red Wine, Richest source ¨C Hu Zhang or Japanese
Knotweed.
Resveratrol ¨C research at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Centre in
1998 showed Resveratrol to be a powerful COX-2 inhibitor and an
inhibitor of cancer promotion. MSK and Cornell Medical Centre later
noted that in human breast cancer cells and malignant oral tissue,
resveratrol worked in a two fold way ¨C it inhibited the cellular
expression of the COX-2 gene and also inhibited the actual enzyme
activity of COX-2. As breast cancer cells and usually prostate cancer
cells are hormone dependent, it is possible that resveratrol could
have a similar impact on CaP. A report from the New York Medical
College indicated that resveratrol triggered apoptosis [programmed
cell death] in Prostate Cancer cells. Unfortunately my `source' did
not indicate whether the study was in vitro or in vivo. University of
Illinois researchers reported in `Science' that resveratrol stops
cancer Initiation and Promotion and in Leukaemia it promotes
differentiation. National Univ. of Taiwan researchers found that
resveratrol stops production of NFkB which inflames tissues
surrounding the tumour. Problem for men getting stuck into the red
wine is that the alcohol provides a lot of calories ¨C not what
you need if you are trying to restrict calories to stimulate one's
immune system. The alcohol also creates a lot of free-radicals that
can nullify other cancer fighting anti-oxidants that one might be
taking. On the other hand as one ages , the portals in the blood
vessels through the liver tend to close up making it more difficult
for large fat molecules to get through for processing in the liver.
Apparently a small amount of alcohol regularly consumed can open
up these portals .<<<<< The strategy should be no more than two
standard glasses of red wine per day and not just at one time. Spread
the wine
consumption. It is possible to obtain powdered red wine marc that has
the resveratrol and the other polyphenols but no alcohol. [ `The Red
Wine Affair' produced by Hilde Hemmes ¨C Herbal Supplies Limited,
Ridgehaven, can be obtained through Health Shops ¨C powder equivalent
to 74 glasses of wine for about $25.] On the other hand, men who have
forms of heart disease that include significant numbers of weakened
heart cells, should think twice about consuming significant amounts of
resveratrol. University of Minnesota researchers noted that
resveratrol tends to activate the p53 gene which acts as a sort
of `molecular patrolman' telling cells to self destruct when things
go wrong. This is great for CaP if you have a cancer where p53 is
mutated so that it does not operate properly. Unfortunately this also
just might `gee up' the p53 genes in the weakened cells in your heart
condition leading to the destruction of the cells and a massive heart
attack."

Re: Can one drink the occasional black coffee

 

I think that you can drink coffee. One can go overboard with all this stuff.
Some of the healthiest people in the world are the French and Japanese; the
French drink coffee and the Japanese drink tea, both of which have caffiene.
Coffee does not give people cancer.

As to your next post on this topic, I don't know the exact purpose

All I remember reading is that Dr.Budwig said in one of her books

HI Group (Wie gehts Wilhelm?),

I haven't posted in a while but I thought this may be of
interest. My
friend Jose passed away last Sunday most likely due to the
effects of
a chemo-regimen his doctor talked him to getting. The Dr. swore
this
was the ONLY way he would be able to travel to Spain to see his
family. A week later the "Dr." turned him over to Hospice and
went on
vacation! Prior to this Jose was 'holding his own'. As he lay in
bed,
he reminded me of "E.T"- bony chest and arms and a big swollen
belly-
the ascites (fluid) was terrible and his testacles looked like 2
pink
water balloons.
On Friday,I knew he was dying (he couldn't eat because of all
the
narcotics they were giving him), and I thought of Dr. Budwig's
proceedure using 8 oz. of FO, some raw honey and champagne
for "in
extremis" patients. So I bought a bottle of champagne (wondering
what
the hospice people would say)and talked the nurse into letting me
see
if he would take it. She got interested and we decided to give
him 2
oz. of oil, a little honey, and about 5 oz of champagne (just
stirred
it all up in a glass- a gross looking 2-layer concoction). He did
manage to keep it down and said it tasted good! (I think I would
mix
the oil and honey-let them sip it, then give a champagne chaser-
next
time though). I left for work and the nurse said she would repeat
it
before her shift was up and tell the next nurse to continue the
proceedure. I returned about midnight and found out the other
shifts
thought this was "nuts" and stopped giving it to him- put an IV
morphine line in his arm instead- at this point there were alot
of
his friends here and I didn't say anything-just accepted this was
the
end-he died early the next day-just as I got there by the way.
Anyway, a few days later I ran into a woman who used to be a
customer of mine when I was practising community pharmacy. She
was
helping to look after Jose (as part of a mediation group Jose
belonged to). She told me that about 2 hours after the
second "dose"
of the FO/Champagne, Jose voided 1100 ML of fluid! We both
thought 'what if' we could have continued with the treatment.
Once
again Dr. Budwig's brillance astounds me. You know most people
would
look at a person in Jose's condition and say 'he's a goner', yet
I
remembered the pictures of Civil War soldiers from Andersonville
or
the liberated prisoners of Auschwitz and they looked like that
(or
worse) yet many survived. The human body is truly a remarkable
creation and when given the right nutrition is capable of
remarkable
things. Poisons beget death-I wonder why this is such an alien
concept to "learned medical minds"- a second grader can tell you
that!
Jose had 7 months (instead of 3 weeks-that he was told in
January)
and I cherish the time we got to know each other. He was a
wonderful
man (over 200 people came to the 2 memorials that where held for
him
and his family)and I certainly learned alot: about life, medicine
and
Dr. Budwig. If I ever get another opportunity to help some one
with
this protocol, I will be a better "coach" thanks to my experience
with Jose.

CLA

Paul Cates
 

After more study on CLA in the diet, I have decided not to add it to
my list of supplements.

My Doctor was the one that suggested it.

Going back and researching it further, I find that is not necessary
to human consumption and might even be harmful. I had previously read
a report from Udo Erasmus, that CLA would create a balance in the
Omega 3 - Omega 6 faster (in the good direction) and that sounded
good. Since then, I have read reports that it may act differently in
humans than the animal studies done. I would hate for it to deter the
progress already made by the FO/CC and I am returning to suggested
levels of fo/cc and fs and without CLA.
