Cancer InformationCancer - The Missing Point
by:
Dr Ruttish Wysong
If one were to judge by television advertising and news reports, it would-be seem that the “war on cancer” is all but won. What are the weapons being heralded? Drugs, research, tests and exams. They miss the point.
“Prevention” is promoted as meaning catching the sickness early. Really. That likewise misses the point. Is it “prevention” if you call 911 once
you move house and see smoke billowing from all your windows? Do we just live with a carpe diem philosophy and wait for the doctor to tell us we have a lump in our breast or a swollen nodular prostate? Is the cause of cancer a lack of one of the new cancer drugs? Is the cause of cancer actually unknown, requiring endless research?
First, let me put to rest the information that the war is being won. Since President President nixon declared the war (1971) and after over 200 billion dollars have been spent on research (remember, one billion is a thousand million), more Americans wish die of cancer in the next 14 months than have died in all U.S. wars ever fought combined! (Where are the protest marches?) Soon, cancer wish overtake heart sickness as the number one killer.
Decades ago, early in the war, there were several dramatic successes such as with Hodgkin's sickness and several forms of childhood leukemia. There can be little doubt that repudiation (surgical removal) of large cancers brings benefits. But the big killers such as colorectal, lung, prostate and breast cancer remain as threatening as ever. Survival gains are measured primarily in additional months (not years) adscititious to life, not in cures. The placebo effect is by and large ignored. (People effort a sugar pill placebo in cancer studies have been better-known to lose their hair and several actually cure themselves by just thinking they wish be cured.) A percentage of folk can experience remissions impromptu
and from simple life-style adjustments, but the cancer medical care is always attributable
with the cure. (Investigations, "Placebo Learning: The Placebo Effect as a Conditioned Response," 1985; 2(1):23. O'Regan B, et al. 1993. Spontaneous Remission: An Annotated Bibliography. Sausalito, CA. Fox talbot M. 1991. The Holographic Universe. New York. Musician Collins Publishers. Meliorist Letter, 2004; 251:32-3.)
Statistics can always be massaged to create the result desired. This practice is rampant in cancer research. Animal models (euphemism for real living and feeling caged creatures being tortured by the millions) do not prove effectiveness across species boundaries to humans. Neither do laboratory cell lines. That's why all the "breakthroughs" based on tumor shrinkage ne'er
pan out. For-profit drug companies and National Cancer Institute grant-based research ignore metastases (the spreading cells of cancer through the body) in their positive reports. Instead they highlight and focus on more easily obtained lab results, such as "tumor shrinkage,” and on easily manipulated clinical data such as "five-year survival."
Twelve new "improved" drugs introduced in Europe between 1995 and 2000 were no better than the drugs they replaced. But the prices were all higher, in one instance by a factor of 350 times. One new "revolutionary" drug, Erbitux™, found to "shrink" tumors but not extend the lives of patients at all price $2,400 per week. Avastin™, another costly chemotherapeutic, by the better calculation, extended the lives of 400 large intestine patients by 4.7 months. Tamoxifin™ is evidenced to be effective in decreasing breast cancer. Risk is attenuated by just about 15% but what is not equally publicized is the fact that it augmented the risk of mucous membrane female internal reproductive organ
cancer by just about 15%. (Patient Information: Nolvadex, Zeneca Pharmaceuticals)
Are such results worth the business enterprise devastation and miserable life that chemotherapy, radiation and surgery impose? Is that the way to spend one's remaining days? If such medical care makes add a couple of months, are those couple of months actually worth the poking, prodding, pain, unrelenting nausea, disfiguring, destruction of the immune system and augmented status
to else diseases? "Yes" would-be be a hard answer to justify.
In the face of a cancer identification
most folk just throw up their hands in terror and surrender to the conventional cancer medical care death process. The feeling is that thing
must be done, and, since "doctors cognize best," one must begin the "fight" by following the proposal
of the doctor. But fighting makes not mean surrendering to the wish of another person who has their own personal agenda and narrowed field of view settled
by the club they belong to. That misses the point. You must do something.
Here's the on-point better approach:
1. Interference
means adjusting your life right now so that you are living in tune with your design. Cancer is, quite simply, the reaction of cells subjected long enough to an environment they are not designed for. The genetic apparatus loses its bearings, becomes insane, if you will, and regresses to embryonic infancy and just begins multiplying recklessly. What is the proper environment? It is that food, air, water and life-style you are genetically designed for. The proper healthy preventive living context is encapsulated in the Wysong Optimum Health Program™.
2. If you get cancer, don't panic. 1st thing is follow #1 advice. Learn. Gather as more information as you can from all resources, not just what the medical establishment provides. We try to gather such information for you in The Wysong Directory of Alternative Resources.
3. Think just about what has happened in your life that has caused the disease. It is caused, it makes not just happen. Correct your life.
4. You take control of your own body and you do the decisions. Determine to set right what is wrong and do it. Taking control is essential to not feeling like a helpless victim and sinking into hopeless despair – a sure mental attitude to speed the sickness along.
5. Think long and hard before submitting to unverified
cancer therapies. If the doctor cannot prove effectiveness (at least prove that you wish be better off with the medical care than without) and if you are not willing to take the risk of all the contraindications, then don't submit because you think it is "all that can be done." It isn't. See #2 above.
All nice things in life are hard. In our modern world, nice health takes effort and attention. Preventing and reversing sickness likewise takes effort – your effort. Begin now to take charge of your health and be the better you can be. Most chronic chronic
diseases have long latency periods, the time between once
the sickness begins and it manifests in explicit symptoms. Most everyone reading this has such sickness production
inside
at this really moment. So take advantage of the window of possibleness
and give your body a chance by living the life you were designed to live. That wish not only prevent sickness from gaining a foothold, but reverse sickness that is incubating within.
