A new study out of Marshall University found that eating two ounces of walnuts a day for two weeks slowed breast cancer growth or reduced the risk of developing the disease.1 In the study, researchers gave a group of women who had a breast biopsy two ounces of walnuts every day until they had surgery two weeks later. They found …
If you’re unfortunate enough to get cancer, it seems like the first option from your oncologist – even today – is endless rounds of chemotherapy drugs. Why? One reason is that it’s all they know. But there’s another very concerning reason… Chemotherapy drugs can make oncologists very, very rich. You see, most doctors will just write you a prescription for …
When my son Dylan had a bad sore throat as a kid, I took him into our backyard and chopped a small piece of root bark from one of my favorite flowering trees. I rinsed it off and handed it to him. “Chew on that. Your sore throat will be gone in a little while.” I learned about the acacia …
There’s definitely something fishy about recent news reports claiming that eating more than two portions of fish per week increases your risk of skin cancer. These headline-grabbing reports were based on a large study from scientists at Brown University. According to their research, people who eat around 300 grams of fish a week – about 10.5 ounces – have a …
Big Pharma loves the endless stream of steady profit that cancer delivers. In business terms, cancer is a “cash cow.” And the industry really does milk cancer patients for money. That keeps Pharma execs motivated to make high-cost, long-term treatments, regardless of whether they work in any meaningful way. They line their pockets at the expense of patient care. These …
Sadly, conventional medical doctors don’t recognize the value of medicinal herbs. But when something has been documented to heal for thousands of years, it’s more than proven its worth. Archeological studies have proven that the practice of herbal medicine dates as far back as 60,000 years ago…1 I’m proud to keep this tradition moving forward. In the early days of …
I tell my patients there’s a good reason why countries like Japan, China, and South Korea have some of the lowest cancer rates in the world. Two words: green tea. In one breakthrough study, researchers from the University of Arizona Cancer Center found that chemicals in green tea dramatically boosts your body’s metabolic defense against toxins that can cause cancer.1 …
A little under a year ago marked the 50th anniversary of the “War on Cancer?” A lot of people thought the disease would be eradicated within a decade. But, the only real “winner” is Big Pharma. A decade ago, the annual global cost of cancer drugs was $56 billion. It’s been going up ever since and next year it’s projected …
Most doctors will tell you that cancer is all about damaged DNA. And that cancer malignancies are caused by gene mutations inside your cells, which lead to runaway cell growth and tumors. New cancer research is focused almost entirely on genetics. Sadly, they’ve got it wrong. The real cause of cancer – and its most effective treatment – was discovered …
Most doctors and researchers tell you cancer is all about gene mutations inside your cells. That’s why today’s cancer treatments involve gene therapies that target specific mutations. But you don’t get cancer because there’s something “wrong” with your genes. Cancer is a modern metabolic disease — a condition that arises from a problem with the ability of the mitochondria in …
Bayer Pharmaceuticals, the company that acquired Roundup when it bought Monsanto, announced last month it will stop selling its weed killer to U.S. consumers in 2023. It sounds like progress, but it’s nothing more than a public relations cop-out. Almost 280 million pounds of Roundup are sprayed in the U.S. each year. That’s because consumer use of the weed killer …
I tell my patients there’s a good reason why countries like Japan, China and Korea have some of the lowest cancer rates in the world. Two words: green tea. I’ve written to you before about how green tea can protect against a number of chronic diseases, including Alzheimer’s, diabetes and depression – and cancer is no exception. In one breakthrough …
I’ve been lucky enough to travel to some of the most beautiful and exotic places on Earth. But one of my favorites is Uganda. My wife is from Kampala, and almost every year we spend time there with her family. I was fortunate enough to get up close to an elephant in Africa. Uganda has by far the most incredible …
There’s no doubt antibiotics have saved a lot of lives. But because they’ve been overprescribed for so many years we’ve ended up with a slew of health problems. For one thing, overuse of antibiotics wreaks havoc on your microbiome… That’s your body’s ecosystem. Your microbiome has 100 trillion or so bacteria, viruses and fungi. It affects just about every organ …
It’s no secret that stress can be deadly. It weakens your immune system… It increases your risk of heart disease… But new research shows that stress can be particularly deadly for people with cancer. A recent study in Australia found that stress allows cancer to spread six times faster. Aussie researchers tracked breast cancer cells in mice. They tagged the cancer …
If you're a woman with a family history of breast cancer, your doctor may recommend you start taking a toxic chemo drug like tamoxifen to lower your risk of developing the disease. Even if you have no signs or symptoms of cancer. Tamoxifen is what's known as a chemopreventive agent. That's a fancy phrase that means it's something that …
If your doctor puts you on a statin for cholesterol, prepare to be on it for life. If you have high blood pressure, you can be sure you’ll be filling that prescription forever. Diabetic? You can look forward to decades of metformin. Big Pharma seems to have a “treatment” for every disease. But they rarely have a “cure.” You see, …
You may think if you live long enough, it’s inevitable that you’ll get cancer. Most people feel like every time they turn around, they hear about another person who has the disease. But that doesn’t have to be the case. It doesn’t take “good genes” or a drug with dangerous side effects to prevent cancer. It takes exercise. That’s as …
