What Causes Cancer
Many cancer patients have gone through these three steps:
1) The patient had chemotherapy, radiation and surgery to treat their cancer,
2) The patient was told they were “cancer free,”
3) Months later the cancer “came back,” which is called “regression.”
When talking about what causes cancer we need to talk about it at two different levels.
- The first level is at the systemic level, meaning what conditions in the body allowed the cancer to grow out of control and how to deal with this issue.
- The second level about cancer is what causes cancer at the cellular level. Why does a healthy cell become cancerous in the first place?
These two levels are totally different subjects
A cancer practitioner might research how to kill cancer cells or revert them into normal cells, but a cancer researcher might ask why the immune system was weak and why individual cells were cancerous.
What Causes Cancer – Systemic Level
Everyone has cancer cells in their body, so why does one person never get diagnosed with cancer and another person is diagnosed with cancer?
Cancer is almost always caused by the same multi-step sequence of events.
- Microbes and parasites get inside of organs and make their homes there. These microbes generally come from meat that was not adequately cooked, but they can come from other sources.
- These microbes intercept glucose which was headed for the cells in the organs.
- The microbes excrete (as waste products) mycotoxins, which are highly acid and totally worthless to the cells.
- The cells (in the organs) don’t get the food they need (because it has been intercepted), and because they are living in a sea of waste products (i.e. mycotoxins), the cells in the organ become weak.
- Organs are made exclusively of cells. In other words, if you took all of the cells out of an organ, there would be no organ. Thus, because the cells in the organ(s) are weak, the organ(s) are weak.
- Because one or more major organs are weak the immune system becomes weak.
- Because the immune system is weak it cannot kill enough cancer cells and the cancer cells grow out of control.
Thus, the “root cause” of cancer is microbes and parasites that are in the organs, colon or bloodstream, which weakens the immune system!!
However, other things can cause cancer. For example, a vaccination can weaken the immune system due to mercury and/or toxins. Waste in the colon can also lead to a weak immune system.
When thinking about the above steps, there are three major ways to deal with cancer:
1) Safely target and kill the cancer cells,
2) Kill the microbes inside the cancer cells and the cancer cells will revert into normal cells,
3) Kill the microbes that are causing the immune system to be weak (and this includes the microbes in the organs and the microbes in the bloodstream).
Without doing number 3, cancer could come back again.
Fixing the “Root Cause” of Cancer
While many natural cancer treatments do very well against cancer, what is missing in many natural cancer treatment protocols is getting rid of the microbes in the organs, which is the “root cause” of most cases of cancer.
In many cases the immune system can get rid of these microbes, but in fact some types of tapeworms, flukes and fungus, etc. cannot be killed by the immune system for one reason or another (e.g. the microbes are not accessible by the immune system).
Liver flushes and special nutrients may be required to deal with these microbes and parasites. But the fact is that many natural cancer treatments do very well without dealing with these special microbes.
By getting rid of the microbes in the organs, plus doing the normal cancer treatments, the balance (i.e. a strong immune system and a low number of cancer cells) is restored enough to keep the cancer from coming back. The person could be cured because their immune system has been fixed and the number of cancer cells has been reduced!!The cancer will not come back as long as the patient watches their diet.
The approach of orthodox medicine, however, is to severely damage the immune system with chemotherapy, radiation and surgery. This makes the imbalance even worse because they damage the immune system and do a very poor job of targeting the cancer cells and do an even worse job of killing the microbes in the organs.
Orthodox cancer treatments also kill many healthy cells and can damage organs, the lymph system, etc.
Is it any wonder the cancer always seems to “come back” after surgery or chemotherapy? This is called “regression.”
For example, how is cutting off a breast going to fix the immune system?
Most natural cancer treatments include immune builders and things that kill cancer cells. Some protocols also include things to clean the blood of microbes, which will also supercharge the immune system.
Even when orthodox medicine puts someone into “remission” (i.e. their cancer appears to be gone), they have not fixed the “root cause” of the cancer, so it is almost certain the cancer will come back!! That is why the true “five-year” cure rate of orthodox medicine is less than 3%.
Because the “root cause” of cancer is a weak immune system, YOU CANNOT CUT CANCER OUT, you have to deal with the “root cause” of the cancer!!!
Even in Natural Medicine the Cancer Can Come Back
Many natural cancer treatments, whether cancer treatments that kill the cancer cells or even revert the cancer cells into normal cells, can have significant regression rates!!
One reason is that the microbes in the organs and/or bloodstream were not identified and destroyed.
In other words, even natural cancer treatments that kill cancer cells or revert cancer cells into normal cells can have the cancer return!! If natural cancer treatments don’t fix the “root cause” of the cancer, by cleaning the blood, and especially the organs of microbes and parasites, the cancer can come back.
What Causes Cancer – Cellular Level – Part 1
How does a normal cell, which is not cancerous, become cancerous?
In a normal cell, molecules called ATP (adenosine triphosphate) provide the energy of the cell. ATP molecules are created inside the mitochondria which are inside of every human cell. In fact, there are thousands of mitochondria inside of every human cell.
The very definition of a cancer cells is low ATP energy!!
The normal (Highly Simplified) process of creating ATP molecules is this:
1) Glucose gets inside the cell from the bloodstream,
2) Some of the glucose is converted into pyruvate,
3) Pyruvate gets inside the mitochondria,
4) Once inside the mitochondria, pyruvate is at the beginning of two sequential chemical reactions. It is these two cycles which create most of the ATP molecules in the cell.
Cancer cells consume 15 times more glucose than a normal cell. Thus, a person would logically expect a cancer cell to create 15 times more ATP molecules than a normal cell.
But in reality, cancer cells create a very small number of ATP molecules!! Cancer cells are ATP molecule starved and they have to revert to fermentation to create what little ATP molecules they create.
With so much glucose there should be an abundance of ATP molecules!! Why do cancer cells consume15 times more glucose and yet not be able to create a significant amount of ATP molecules?
The thing that blocks the production of ATP molecules is a very special pleomorphic bacteria that is inside the cancer cells!!.
Researchers believe the microbe is Helicobacter Pylorior. In some cases, Fusobacterium may be involved as well, as it is also known to get inside of cells.
While everyone has H. pylori bacteria in their body (generally in their digestive tract), how does H. pylori get inside of a healthy cell? Generally it doesn’t. But in some cases an acidic diet can make bacteria highly aggressive and it can literally drill itself into a normal cell to get away from the acidity in the blood, as discovered by Robert O. Young, PhD.
Another way microbes can get inside of cells is because asbestos or the chemicals in tobacco cut the cell membrane. This can allow microbes inside the cells. But remember that even though all of us have cancer cells; don’t forget we also have an immune system.
So how does a bacterium block the production of ATP molecules and thus turn a cell cancerous after it has gotten inside the cell?
The bacteria blocks ATP production in two different ways:
First, bacteria eat glucose, so as the bacteria proliferate inside the cell they intercept more and more glucose. This means less and less pyruvate is made because there is less glucose to be converted into pyruvate. This means less ATP is made!!
Second, microbes excrete mycotoxins, which are highly acidic and totally worthless molecules.
Both items contribute to the mitochondria not obtaining enough pyruvate and this hinders the chain reaction that blocks the production of an adequate amount of ATP in the mitochondria.
In any case, due to the lack of energy in cancer cells (i.e. due to the lack of ATP molecules), cancer cells are very weak, which is the definition of a cancer cell. But because cancer cells steal glucose from the body the non-cancerous cells have less glucose and are very sick!! They are sick for other reasons as well (e.g. cachexia cycle as cancer cells excrete lactic acid).
One method that cancer cells use to spread quickly (at least for some kinds of cancer) is for the cancer microbe to come out of the cell, travel through the blood and create a new “colony” of cancer cells far from the original colony.
This is just the beginning.
The cancer microbe also excretes enzymes that coat the outside of the cancer cells. This coating of enzymes blocks the immune system from identifying the cancer cells as being cancer cells!!
It was also discovered, around the 1950s, that natural pancreatic enzymes, made in the pancreas, could dissolve this protein coating so the immune system could identify and thus kill the cancer cells.
This discovery in turn led to the advice that natural cancer treatments should prohibit the cancer patient from eating meats or other foods that the pancreatic enzymes cut apart. In other words, these foods “use up” the pancreatic enzymes while in the stomach so less of them are available to expose cancer cells to the immune system.
When a cancer patient is using pancreatic enzymes in their protocol, they should not eat meat or dairy products. In fact, no cancer patient should eat very much meat and they should not eat or drink any dairy products (for multiple reasons) or sugar.
It gets worse. Dr. Matthias Rath discovered that these microbes excrete enzymes that “cut a path” along tissue so the cancer can spread more easily along tissue
In summary, cancer at the systemic level is caused by an imbalance between the strength of the immune system and the number of cancer cells. At the systemic level many, things can cause cancer, especially things that weaken the immune system. A weak immune system is almost always caused by microbes and parasites which are inside organs, but are not necessarily inside the cancer cells.
But cancer at the cellular level is caused by very unique and common microbes which are inside the cancer cells. These microbes help cancer cells do their damage and also protect themselves!!
Additionally, cancer cells create and excrete large amounts of lactic acid because they process large amounts of glucose inefficiently. This lactic acid goes into the bloodstream and gets to the liver. The liver converts the lactic acid to glucose. This “ping pong ball” cycle, where the cancer cells convert glucose into lactic acid and the liver converts lactic acid into glucose, is called the “lactic acid cycle” or “cachexia cycle.”
This cycle is what kills about half of all cancer patients because so much energy is consumed at both ends of the cycle. The patient becomes very weak and eventually dies.
Lactic acid also blocks many key nutrients from getting to the cancer cells!!
Dealing with the lactic-acid cycle is frequently a major effort of a cancer treatment. It may involve using hydrazine sulphate, Methyl-Sulphonal-Methane MSM (which helps flush the lactic acid out), D-Ribose (to get energy to the non-cancerous cells), Vitamin C (ditto), etc.
What Causes Cancer – Cellular Level – Part 2
One possibility is DNA damage where the DNA damage causes defective proteins and the defective proteins cause a loss of some ATP energy.
However, it is doubtful that more than a few thousand cancer patients worldwide have cancer caused by DNA damage.
But it is almost certain that certain chemicals, i.e. asbestos, can cause cancer. It is almost certain that asbestos causes cancer by cutting the sides of cells, thus allowing bacteria to get inside the cancer cells more readily. Let’s talk more about the possibility of DNA damage causing cancer.
Orthodox medicine claims that ALL cancer is caused by DNA damage. However, in theory in rare cases DNA damage may cause cancer.
Take the famous BRCA2 gene as an example. Can a defect in this gene cause cancer? It is not clear whether the BRCA2 gene is a cause of cancer or that the microbes inside the cancer cells cause the BRCA2 gene damage. Orthodox medicine would never examine this issue because they are looking to sell drugs, not save lives.
Let’s talk about the BRCA2 gene defect. A DNA strand is between 3.2 billion and 3.5 billion nucleotides long. Only a very small percentage of DNA codes is for proteins, about 3%. Only a very small percentage of these proteins are involved with the creation of ATP energy. The proteins of interest are the proteins needed for the conversion of glucose to pyruvate.
In other words, we are only interested in the structures inside the cells which are involved in the conversion of glucose to pyruvate.
It is possible, but highly unlikely, that DNA damage could affect one of the proteins needed for the creation of ATP energy.
As the cell with this DNA damage divides, all of the “daughter” cells” will have this same genetic damage.
So how does a bad gene create a cancer cell? In a cell, genes are the patterns used to make enzymes or proteins. If a gene is damaged then the enzymes or proteins made by this gene will be defective.
Everything that goes on in a cell is controlled by proteins. There are worker proteins, supervisor proteins, etc. If these are damaged then one or more of the large number of chemical chain reactions inside the cell may fail. This may mean the creation of ATP is damaged.
If a significant amount of ATP energy production is blocked inside the cell, then by definition the cell is cancerous.
So how exactly could the BRCA1 or BRCA2 defective genes cause cancer? The truth is that no one really knows whether these defective genes cause cancer at all. In order for these defects to cause cancer they must create defective proteins that are needed in the conversion of glucose to pyruvate.
A genetic defect may have absolutely nothing to do with the creation of pyruvate. In other words, genetic defects may be a symptom of the cancer, meaning this damage may be caused by the DNA of the microbes which are actually causing the cancer.
These defects cannot block the ATP production completely or the cell would fall apart. So we do know it must be a partial interference if at all.
Focusing on the Microbes Inside the Cancer Cells
Have there been any cancer treatments that cured cancer by killing the microbes inside the cancer cells?
In the 1930s Dr. Royal Rife, a microbiologist, was able to cure cancer with gentle electro medicine, which had two frequencies. One frequency was designed to kill the cancer bacteria and the second frequency was a “carrier” frequency which got the other frequency through the cell membrane (and actually through the entire body) to get inside the cancer cells to kill the microbes.
Dr. Rife had a 100% cure rate of cancer patients, but he was shut down by the FDA after refusing to sell his technology to the American Medical Association which he knew would bury his technology.
Two modern day “Rife Machines” have replicated both of the types of “Rife Machines” that Rife built. These are the High RF Frequency Generator family of very gentle electro medicine devices, which were mentioned above.
The Independent Cancer Research Foundation, Inc. (ICRF) researches both electro medicine protocols (such as Rife developed) and has also designed several cancer treatments using: DMSO, MSM, honey, maple syrup or molasses as carriers (i.e. Trojan Horses) to get microbe killing substances inside of cancer cells. These treatments have been very successful.
If you kill the microbes inside the cancer cells, the cancer cells will REVERT into normal cells.
DMSO is used to get these microbe-killing substances inside the cancer cells.
In Atlanta, Georgia a medical doctor was curing cancer patients using DMSO and very low dose chemotherapy (about 10% of a normal dose). Why was such a low dose so successful? Because the DMSO allowed the chemotherapy to target the cancers cells and avoid damaging healthy cells!! This doctor was shut down by the FDA.
Using DMSO in a cancer clinic in the United States is a magnet to get the FDA to raid the clinic.
Vitamin C, which also kills microbes, is also used as an I.V. for cancer patients.
There are likely many natural molecules which cure cancer by killing the microbes inside the cancer cells, but which have not yet been identified as working in this manner.
Vitamin C and Vitamin D3 are good examples. These are highly anti-microbial vitamins which cannot possibly kill cancer cells, so the only way they can treat cancer is by killing the microbes inside the cancer cells (in the case of Vitamin C, hydrogen peroxide is also made).
The number one plant or herb in the world, which has been identified as successfully killing H. pylori is turmeric. Turmeric is also one of the top herbal treatments for cancer!! You can combine turmeric (or curcumin, which is more powerful) with honey. Ginger is also used with honey. Both of these combinations are known to have cured cancer by themselves!!
It is much easier to kill microbes than to kill cancer cells, if the substance can get inside of the cancer cells. DMSO, MSM and honey are all “Trojan Horses” to get microbe-killing substances inside of cancer cells. Maple syrup or molasses is also commonly used with baking soda and has been very successful!!
The Immune System
A normal person will not be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime. The reason is that there is enough of a balance between the power of their immune system and the number of cancer cells such that the cancer cells do not get out of control.
However, what most people do not understand is how sophisticated and potent the immune system is if it is fully functioning.
Natural medicine can supercharge the immune system beyond imagination. But orthodox medicine rarely work with natural medicine researchers, but orthodox medicine researchers control 99.999% of the research money. So while much is known about how to supercharge the immune system (natural medicine), little is known about what the immune system “looks like” when it is supercharged (orthodox medicine).
It is a fact that if a person’s immune system was fully functional no one would ever get cancer. This would be a scenario that orthodox medicine never wants to see. BIG PHARMA
What is known is that the immune system creates two key anti-cancer molecules called: interleukin and interferon. These molecules are called neuropeptides or nerve proteins. There are more than 2,000 different types of neuropeptides in the body, but the cancer-fighting effects of most of them are unknown.
In fact, no one knows how many different types of neuropeptides could be created by the body.
Interleukin and interferon, and likely several other neuropeptides, are absolutely deadly to cancer cells!!
The problem is that the human body generally does not produce an optimal amount of these neuropeptides. In fact, the body only creates a very small number of neuropeptides.
The reason is microbes, but not the same microbes that live inside cancer cells. It is the microbes that live outside of the cancer cells.
The average person has about 2 pounds of microbes in their bloodstream and in other places in their body. It is these microbes which interfere with the immune system’s ability to create key neuropeptides.
Junk Foods
Many people say that sugar and other junk foods “cause cancer.” Well, to some degree that is true.
What junk foods do is put high levels of highly concentrated acidic foods in the body. Microbes LOVE an acidic environment!!
Thus, junk foods create the perfect environment for the microbes that are in the bloodstream, the microbes in the organs and even the microbes inside the cancer cells!!
That is why “cancer diets” avoid highly acidic foods and focus on whole (i.e. unprocessed), alkaline foods.
How To Deal With Cancer
In summary, there are several ways to deal with cancer:
1) You can safely and gently kill cancer cells with nutrients, such as laetrile or Vitamin B17,
2) You can safely and gently kill the microbes which are inside the cancer cells with DMSO, MSM, honey, as Trojan Horses, and electro-medicine.
3) You can safely and gently kill the microbes which are in the bloodstream and thus supercharge the immune system to create interleukin and interferon and other neuropeptides, which in turn kill the cancer cells
4) You can target and kill the parasites and microbes in the organs, which will also help supercharge the immune system. This is called a “liver flush” because the most important parasites are in the liver. There are many generic liver flushes.
5) You can supercharge the immune system with nutrients. This can also cure cancer though it does not work as fast as some of the other treatments. Many natural plants have been identified which can build the immune system without killing all of the microbes in the bloodstream
6) You can block the “lactic acid cycle” with hydrazine sulphate (this is not a direct cure, but it extends the life of the patient so other treatments have longer to work),
7) You can supercharge the non-cancerous cells with nutrients and minerals. Note: this is not a direct cure, but is very commonly used to extend the life of the patient until other treatments can become effective.
A typical cancer treatment will actually do three or four of the above things and maybe all seven of them.
In summary, cancer is a systemic disease.
It is caused by microbes in the organs (which weaken the immune system), microbes inside the cancer cells (which block the production of ATP energy), microbes in the bloodstream (which block the immune system), and so the cycle continues.
