A PROPOSED PROJECT
TO HELP CANCER PATIENTS IN THE PHILIPPINES
WHO CANNOT AFFORD THE CONVENTIONAL TREATMENTS

I am a chemical engineer, a graduate of Mapua Institute of Technology. I had taught in Mapua and De La Salle University for many years, and a year in UST as a visiting professor. I became an advocate in nutrition against disease because of my wife. My wife who considered herself a Bicolana from Naga City became a victim of cancer more than 9 years ago, she was treated by all three conventional modalities, surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy, but her cancer marker CEA started from single digit in the beginning and increased to more than 1000 before she succumbed to the disease in less than 3 years. Since then I promised myself to search for a cure outside the conventional treatments and to help cancer patients so that my dear wife would not be a cancer victim to die in vain. For almost 10 years, I have bought and read many shelves of books, attended many of the annual cancer conventions in every September Labor Day weekends organized by the Cancer Control Society of Los Angeles and seen many testimonies of former cancer patients cured by the altenative treatments in the conventions (see attached 38th convention in 2010 below). I have also visited many cancer clinics in Tijuana, Mexico, the most concentrated center of the alternative cancer treatments of the world.

I have concluded that cancer can be cured by the basic treatment of nutrition, which includes detoxification, proper nutrients, physical exercise, mind and faith. Furthermore, the recovery may be expedited by some other alternative treatments (use back arrow to return here) that do not involve the conventional surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy.

This basic treatment of nutrition is a natural way of curing not only cancer but all other kinds of chronic diseases, but I will concentrate on cancer. It is not only for the rich but also for the poor because it doesn't require too much money in addition to our daily food requirements. It is ideal for the poor patients.

Aside from the misinformation that nutrition has nothing to do with cancer promoted by the old schools of American medical orthodoxy that is hard to remove, the most difficult part in this treatment is the discipline and the habit of old unhealthy lifestyle such as eating the wrong foods, smoking or drinking that is almost impossible to change except for the most determined patients. Moreover, the commercial markets and restaurants are full of unhealthy processed foods it is almost impossible to get the healthy foods without much effort.

I understand there is the so-called code of ethics in the medical community that the medical staff should give the patients the best advice and treatment, but what is the meaning of the best if the nutrition is not part of the treatment, if the medical staff members were not trained in the nutrition against disease, if they have never heard of the successful treatments of cancer by nutriton through the work of Dr. Linus Pauling, Dr. Max Gerson, Dr. Ann Wigmore, Dr. William Donald Kelley or Dr. Lorraine Day in America, Dr. Johanna Budwig or Dr. Josef Issels in Europe, and many others (you can search for them through Goggle or Bing search engine). I would also venture to say that 90% or more of them have never heard of the great American health teacher Dr. Paul Bragg and his Bragg Health Crusades in Santa Barbara, California, promoting nutrition against disease and for optimal health almost a century ago and is continuing today by his daughter Patricia.

I am sure that nutrition and medicine will be integrated in the future medical education, but at present nutrition is a step child of medicine not worthy of attention. What I hope is to disseminate the information on nutrition I believe may cure cancer to the staff of these centers for them to read, discover, analyze, and make their own conclusion. If they believe that the information is correct I know they would use it for their own family or relatives as well as for their patients in their own individual capacity even if the medical authority rejects it, because they are like myself who has an independent mind and a golden heart to help others.

What I would like to propose is to establish a forum via this website for all of the interested staff members of the district health centers in the Philippines to discuss the use of this basic nutrition treatment to cure cancer. I will disseminate the information I have collected in my last 10 years on this website to allow the interested individuals to test the validity of this basic nutrition treatment and to discuss its applications to help their community. I am sure with the ingenuity of the staff members local vegetables, fruits, and nuts can be used to replace the western foods mentioned in the information. There are many local Philippine vegetables, fruits, and herbs that have been found to be beneficial in detox and treating cancer as well as other chronic diseases, the staff members can study them or get more information from University of the Philippines Agriculture Department to integrate them into the basic nutrition treatment.

Although I am convinced of the value of nutrition in curing cancer, conventional medicine has always neglected it, for the staff members who were trained in the conventional schools, curing cancer with nutrition is new. We have to consider this project experimental. Using nutrition to cure disease is very individualized because of the so-called biochemical individuality introduced by Dr. Roger John Williams of the University of Texas, food to one may be poison to another such as in the case of allergy. This is one of the reasons research in medicine doesn't like to involve nutrition because of the large number of variables. Each patient has to be considered individually in trying out the basic nutrition treatment, this is where the staff members can help to identify the individual conditions and suggest the appropriate variation in the basic nutrition treatment. This is a very difficult task for the staff, but if even one poor patient who cannot afford the conventional treatment and is saved by this treatment, the reward of helping fellow human is beyond words.

This basic nutrition treatment may be used together with conventional treatments. However, since radiation and chemotherapy are highly toxic to the body, the detox procedure of fasting and enema may not be used at the same time when these toxic conventional treatments are used. Fasting may be used to detox the residual toxicity after the conventional treatments, it is important that the oncologist of the patient be consulted to combine the treatments. In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), there is a modality of using poison against poison that is similar to the action of chemotherapy against cancer, but TCM always includes other herbal treatments to enhance the immune system. The combination of conventional cancer treatments with TCM herbs for the enhancement of immune system is being practiced with success in most of the hospitals in China today. The combination of conventional treatments with basic nutrition treatment fits very well to TCM philosophy and may increase the effectiveness of conventional treatments. I hope the medical staff of the District Health Centers can see the logic of this combination and have the courage to try the experiment. Since poor patients cannot afford the conventional treatments, this basic nutrition treatment is ideal for them. I hope the staff will also have the courage to experiment the nutrition treatment on the poor patients.

As each interested staff member gains experience in this basic nutrition treatment experiment the findings can be published on an individual capacity on this website for others to verify and follow. Interested staff of district health centers or cancer patients can contact me through the email mculbertresearch@yahoo.com
