For years, doctors and medical science believed the only way to effectively burn cancer out of your body was with radiation. Of course, they still hold to that dogma. But you do not have to. Theres another way to burn cancer out of your body. And this method is completely safe to the surrounding tissues and the rest of your body.
You may know that conventional medicines cancer management system does anything but protect your healthy tissues. Surgery will often expose healthy cells surrounding the tumor to the cancer cells. This makes it much easier for the cancer to spread. Standard chemotherapy poisons your entire body, not just the cancer cells. And radiation can burn everything in its path, whether its healthy or not.
The thinking behind these treatments does have merit. Even many alternative-minded doctors will use these treatments as appropriate. Ive occasionally used chemotherapy as part of my cancer treatment regimen. But usually at 1/10th the dose, with insulin (IPT).
So the idea of burning your cancer out is a good idea. We just need to be able to do it without damaging the healthy tissues. And now there is a way to do it.
Researchers in two separate studies have found a way to burn your cancer cells with capsaicin rather than radiation. Capsaicin is the very hot extract of red peppers.
In the first study, scientists evaluated the herbal extracts effect on mice implanted with human prostate cancer cells. The extract killed 80% of the wayward cells. How? It induced them to commit apoptosis. Apoptosis is preprogrammed cell death (cell suicide) for when cells turn abnormal. In cancer, the mechanism of apoptosis is turned off and the cells become immortal (until something kills them or the host dies). Turning on that mechanism in cancer cells would be a major breakthrough.
Capsaicin also had a profound effect on the cancer cells ability to multiply. In addition to killing 80% of the cancer cells, it dramatically slowed the development of tumors from the remaining 20%. That is enough to allow other treatments to step in and successfully kill these cells.
This study’s researchers found that capsaicin affected a protein called NF-kappa B. This protein protects cells from apoptosis and is involved in inflammation. Capsaicin may inhibit its action both in apoptosis protection and promoting inflammation.
The hot stuff also affected androgen (male hormone) receptors. By doing so, it caused many hormone dependent cells to freeze in time. That does not mean a cold freeze. The cells merely entered a cell cycle of no growth and stayed there. That is what hormone therapy does for men who choose to take hormone blockers. However, with capsaicin, you are not likely to suffer breast growth, impotence, or other signs of male hormone wipe out, or estrogen excess (as you would with hormone therapy).
But the news gets far better. A British study led by Dr. Timothy Bates has found that capsaicin directly attacks the mitochondria (energy furnaces) of cancer cells. But it leaves the mitochondria of normal cells untouched. The team found that lung and pancreatic cancer cells incubated with the hot extract died from the direct assault on their energy furnaces. Pancreatic cancer cells are particularly hard to kill, so this is great news.
Study after study is showing the incredible healing power of spices and herbs such as red pepper and turmeric. I have already suggested to some people battling cancer to try capsaicin. Cayenne extracts can be extraordinarily hot and very uncomfortable. So I have asked Farmacopia (800-896-1484) to carry a dried extract in capsules (40,000 heat units each). I suggest you take seven capsules three times per day, but only for three days a week. If you find that this dose is too uncomfortable for you, please contact Farmacopia and let them know.
I will definitely report back to you on the progress of those who try the nontoxic cancer burn of hot pepper extract. And I certainly would rely on this more than a petrochemical synthetic version.
