PHASE 5 OF CANCER: VITAMIN C DEPLETION

During phase 5, depleted adrenaline levels (caused by prolonged chronic stress) cause a depletion of ascorbic acid (vitamin C) in the adrenal glands. Ascorbic acid is the key ingredient used by dopamine to make noradrenaline (norepinephrine) in the adrenal glands, which is then converted to adrenaline. During prolonged chronic stress more and more adrenaline is pumped out and then depleted, meaning more and more ascorbic acid is used up in the creation of adrenaline. During chronic stress the adrenal glands also release ascorbic acid into the body to diminish the stressful impact of adrenaline [and other stress hormones] on the heart and blood pressure systems. Ascorbic acid is essential for preventing cell DNA damage caused by “oxidative stress”, converting oxygen waste product’s superoxide and hydrogen peroxide into oxygen and water within the cell mitochondria throughout the process known as Oxidative Phosphorylation. The continual loss of ascorbic acid [during prolonged chronic stress] thereby increases cell mitochondrial DNA damage and mutation, causing normal cells to mutate into cancer cells.

THE THEORY: BY GLEN RUSSELL,
PUNA WAI ORA MIND-BODY CANCER CLINIC

Ascorbic acid (vitamin C) is an essential nutrient required by the human body for survival. It is a key anti-oxidant used to breakdown superoxide and hydrogen peroxide in the mitochondria of cells, to prevent cell DNA damage and is an essential ingredient required by the adrenal glands to produce stress hormones, including norepinephrine and adrenaline. During prolonged chronic stress, ascorbic acid is used to create norepinephrine (noradrenaline) to be converted into epinephrine (adrenaline). Dopamine uses ascorbic acid and oxygen to synthesize norephinephrine via the pathway known as "dopamine β-hydroxylase" (also known as dopamine β-monooxygenase), and it is for this reason that 100 times more ascorbic acid is found in the adrenal glands than anywhere else in the body. During prolonged chronic stress, ascorbic acid is also released from the adrenal glands to protect the heart from cardiovascular disorders and arrhythmias. Yet as the condition of prolonged chronic stress continues for months and years and adrenaline levels are depleted, ascorbic acid (vitamin C) levels are also depleted as both are inextricably linked. Without an adequate supply of ascorbic acid [and other important anti-oxidants], superoxide and hydrogen peroxide are unable to be broken down into oxygen and water within the cell's mitochondria in the process known as Oxidative Phosphorylation, and normal cells are more likely to mutate into cancer cells due to cell DNA damage.

Ewan Cameron [senior consulting physician at the Vale of Leven Hospital, Scotland] and Nobel Prize Laureate for his work in Chemistry, Linus Pauling PhD were convinced ascorbic acid should be included in the treatment of cancer and undertook a four year trial to determine the effectiveness of ascorbic acid (high dose vitamin C therapy) in 2,860 cancer patients between 1978-1982. The trial [below] involved a ten-day course of intravenous sodium ascorbic acid, followed indefinitely by 10-30 grams daily of oral ascorbic acid.

Ewan Cameron, MD: “As a single-handed surgeon working in a relatively small hospital, it would have taken me a decade or more to collect a sufficient number of identical patients with an identical type of cancer, all at the same stage of their illness, to enable me to conduct a “proper” randomized double-blind clinical trial [of ascorbic acid]. We did the best we could; we conducted two controlled trials in which the survival time of groups of 100 cancer patients given supplemental ascorbate in the later stage of their illness was compared to the survival time of 1000 matched patients not given ascorbate. In the first study, the controls were selected “blind” by a young New Zealand doctor, specially employed for the purpose. I and a research assistant selected the controls for the second study. Both trials showed a definite survival advantage for the patients given ascorbate. These papers attracted world-wide media attention, and prompted a deluge of letters from cancer patients in many countries. Dr. Pauling and I wrote the book Cancer and Vitamin C in the hope of answering such questions, and lightening our mail-bags, but our effort has been unsuccessful. The letters and telephone calls continue unabated. Dan Rather of CBS network news in a recent broadcast stated that they estimated that 100,000 cancer patients in the United States were now taking vitamin C, with or without the tacit consent of their doctors. We have recently completed a four year trial involving 2,860 cancer patients attending three medium sized general hospitals in Scotland over the four year period from 1978 to 1982. This study was mainly funded by I.B.M. (United Kingdom) Ltd., who devised a computerized records system to suit our requirements. The data has been analyzed as follows: Firstly, patients who died within two weeks of first hospital attendance are excluded. Secondly, all patients who first attended the hospital less than six months before the study ended are also excluded. Finally, all patients who remain potentially cured (e.g. no known recurrence after primary curative surgery) are also excluded. This leaves 1,826 incurable cancer patients, some of whom received supplemental ascorbate (296) and the remainder (1532) who did not, effectively randomized by the date of first hospital attendance. The median survival time of the control patients, as measured from the date of first hospital attendance to the date of death (or to the end of the study, if still alive at that time), was 180 days, whereas the comparable time for the ascorbate group was 343 days. The results of this study, in much more detail, are contained in a manuscript submitted to The New England Journal of Medicine in 1984.”

During normal cell respiration within the mitochondria, superoxide and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) are damaging by-products of Oxidative Phosphorylation that must be converted into oxygen and water to avoid cell damage. Ascorbic acid and the enzyme "superoxide dismutase" are the key substances used to convert these harmful substances into oxygen and water, thereby avoiding cell DNA damage and cell mutations. This is the anti-oxidant effects of ascorbic acid that occurs within normal cells to prevent cancer. Yet the body has ingeniously designed ascorbic acid to have the opposite effect inside cancer cells, where instead of it being used as an anti-oxidant to remove superoxide and hydrogen peroxide, it is being used as a pro-oxidant to create superoxide and hydrogen peroxide to cause cell death within the cancer/tumor cell. In a landmark study conducted by the National Cancer Institute / National Institutes of Health, USA, researchers (led by Dr Mark Levine) documented this pro-oxidant mechanism of ascorbic acid within tumor cell lines in mouse models and found high levels of intravenous ascorbic acid (vitamin c) significantly reduced tumor cell growth.
Picture
Dr Mark Levine of the National Institutes of Health: "Ascorbic acid is an essential nutrient commonly regarded as an anti-oxidant. In this study, we showed that ascorbate at pharmacologic concentrations was a pro oxidant, generating hydrogen-peroxide-dependent cyto-toxicity toward a variety of cancer cells in vitro without adversely affecting normal cells. To test this action in vivo, normal oral tight control was bypassed by parenteral ascorbate (intravenous) administration. Real-time microdialysis sampling in mice bearing glioblastoma [brain cancer] xenografts showed that a single pharmacologic dose of ascorbate (vitamin C) produced sustained ascorbate radical and hydrogen peroxide formation selectively within interstitial fluids of tumors but not in blood. Moreover, a regimen of daily pharmacologic ascorbate treatment significantly decreased growth rates of ovarian, pancreatic, and glioblastoma [brain] tumors established in mice. Similar pharmacologic concentrations were readily achieved in humans given ascorbate (vitamin C) intravenously. These data suggest that ascorbate as a prodrug may have benefits in cancers with poor prognosis and limited therapeutic options.

Results: Given their relative sensitivity, the efficacy of pharmacologic ascorbate administration on the growth of Ovcar5, Pan02, and 9L tumors was examined in nude mice. Treatment commenced after tumors reached a palpable size of 5-7 mm in diameter. Xenograft experiments showed that parenteral ascorbate as the only treatment significantly decreased both tumor growth and weight by 41-53% for Ovcar5 (ovarian), Pan02 (pancreas), and 9L (glioblastoma) tumors. Metastases, present in ≈30% of 9L glioblastoma controls, were absent in ascorbate-treated animals. These preclinical data provide a firm basis for advancing pharmacologic ascorbate in cancer treatment to humans. The tumor xenograft results are especially noteworthy because ascorbate (vitamin C), considered a nutrient, was used here only as a single-agent drug. Pharmacologic concentrations of ascorbate decreased tumor volumes 41-53% in diverse cancer types known for both their aggressive growth and limited treatment options.   

The following studies reveal ascorbic acid (vitamin C) to be a powerful pro-oxidant and generator of hydrogen peroxide, causing cancer cell death (apoptosis).

1. In a study conducted by the National Institutes of Health, researchers found ascorbic acid (vitamin C) to be a powerful tool for generating Hydrogen Peroxide H2O2 to initiate cancer cell death. "Our goals here were to test whether ascorbate (vitamin C) killed cancer cells selectively, and if so, to determine mechanisms, using clinically relevant conditions. For five of the nine cancer cell lines, ascorbate (vitamin C) concentrations causing a 50% decrease in [cancer] cell survival were less than 5 mM, a concentration easily achievable from i.v. (intravenous) infusion. All tested normal cells were insensitive to [a higher amount of] 20 mM ascorbate. [In addition] four cancer cell lines were incubated with 5 mM ascorbate (vitamin C) or untreated media for 1 hour. Cells were diluted and plated and growth assessed after 14 days. All four untreated cell lines grew in soft agar, whereas three of four [cancer cell lines] exposed to ascorbate displayed at least 99% growth inhibition. Human lymphoma cells (JLP-119) were studied in detail to determine the effects of ascorbate on cell death. Ascorbate [thereby] induced concentration-dependent cell death, which was nearly 100% at 2 mM. Cell death was independent of metal chelators and absolutely dependent on H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide) formation. Taken together, these data indicate that ascorbate (vitamin C) at concentrations achieved only by i.v. administration may be a pro-drug for formation of H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide), and that blood can be a delivery system of the pro-drug to tissues." [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1224653/]

2. In a study conducted by the University of Massachusetts Medical Center, researchers found ascorbic acid (vitamin C) generating hydrogen peroxide H2O2 is a potent treatment for killing prostate cancer cells. "Androgen-independent (DU145) and androgen-dependent (LNCaP) human prostate cancer cell lines were both treated in vitro with vitamin C (0-10 mM). Treatment of DU145 and LNCaP (prostate cancer) cells with vitamin C resulted in a dose- and time-dependent decrease in cell viability and thymidine incorporation into DNA. Vitamin C induced these changes through the production of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2); addition of catalase (100-300 units/ml), an enzyme that degrades hydrogen peroxide, inhibited the effects of ascorbic acid. Our results suggest that ascorbic acid is a potent anticancer agent for prostate cancer cells." [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9254898] 

3. In a study conducted by the Samsung Medical Center, Sungkyunkwan University School of Medicine, Seoul, researchers found hydrogen peroxide H2O2 generated by ascorbic acid (vitamin C) successfully kills leukemia cells. "L-Ascorbic acid (LAA) is being investigated clinically for the treatment of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) based on the observed effects of LAA (ascorbic acid) on AML (acute myeloid leukemia) progenitor cells in vitro. LAA (ascorbic acid) at concentrations of 0.25-1.0 mM induced a dose- and time-dependent inhibition of proliferation in three AML (acute myeloid leukemia) cell lines and also in leukemic cells from peripheral blood specimens obtained from three patients with AML. Flow cytometric analysis showed that LAA (ascorbic acid) at concentrations of 0.25-1.0 mM could significantly induce apoptosis (cell death) in the AML (acute myeloid leukemia) cell lines. LAA (ascorbic acid) induced oxidation of glutathione to oxidized form and subsequent H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide) accumulation in a concentration-dependent manner, in parallel to induction of apoptosis (cell death). The direct role of H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide) in the induction of apoptosis (cell death) in AML (acute myeloid leukemia) cells was clearly demonstrated by the finding that catalase could completely abrogate (block) LAA-(ascorbic acid)-induced apoptosis (cell death). In conclusion, LAA (ascorbic acid) can induce apoptosis (cell death) in AML (acute myeloid leukemia) cells, and this is clearly due to H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide) which accumulates intracellularly as a result of oxidation of reduced glutathione by LAA (ascorbic acid)." [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15313465]

4. In a landmark study conducted by the University of Iowa College of Medicine, researchers found hydrogen peroxide H2O2 generated by ascorbic acid (vitamin C) successfully inhibits the growth of nearly all pancreatic cancer cell lines, in vitro and in vivo. "We hypothesized that ascorbate concentrations achievable with i.v. dosing would be cytotoxic in pancreatic cancer for which the 5-year survival is <3%. Pancreatic cancer cell lines were treated with ascorbate (0, 5, or 10 mmol/L) for 1 hour, then viability and clonogenic survival were determined. Pancreatic tumor cells were delivered s.c. into the flank region of nude mice and allowed to grow at which time they were randomized to receive either ascorbate (4 g/kg) or osmotically equivalent saline (1 mol/L) i.p. for 2 weeks. There was a time- and dose-dependent increase in measured H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide) production with increased concentrations of ascorbate. Ascorbate decreased viability in all pancreatic cancer cell lines but had no effect on an immortalized pancreatic ductal epithelial cell line. Ascorbate decreased clonogenic survival of the pancreatic cancer cell lines, which was reversed by treatment of cells with savengers of H2O2. Treatment with ascorbate (vitamin C) induced a caspase-independent cell death that was associated with autophagy. In vivo, treatment with ascorbate inhibited tumor growth and prolonged survival." [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20068072]

5. In a study conducted by the Program in Integrative Medicine, University of Kansas Medical Center, Missouri, researchers found hydrogen peroxide H2O2 generated by ascorbic acid (vitamin C) induced cell death in all tested cancer cell lines and significantly reduced pancreatic tumor volume in mice. "The results showed that pharmacologic AA (ascorbic acid) induced cytotoxicity (cell death) in all tested cancer cells, with IC(50) less than 4 mM, a concentration easily achievable in humans. Treatment in mouse pancreatic cancer xenografts showed that intraperitoneal AA (ascorbic acid) at 4 g/kg daily reduced tumor volume by 42%. Although all treatments (AA, GSH [glutathione], and AA+GSH) improved survival rate, AA+GSH inhibited the cytotoxic effect of AA alone and failed to provide further survival benefit. These data confirm the pro-oxidative anti-cancer mechanism of pharmacologic AA (ascorbic acid) and suggest that AA and GSH administered together provide no additional benefit compared with AA alone." [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21672627] 

6. In a ground-breaking study conducted by the Fukuoka Torikai Hospital and Kamioka Kozan Hospital, Japan, researchers found terminal cancer patients administered large oral doses of ascorbic acid (vitamin C) had significantly longer survival rates than those on low doses. "Clinical trials administering supplemental ascorbate (vitamin C) to terminal cancer patients were conducted at two hospitals in Japan. During the period 1973-1977 there were 99 patients with terminal cancer at the Fukuoka Torikai Hospital. The average times of survival after the date of designation as terminal were 43 days for 44 low-ascorbate patients and 246 days for 55 high-ascorbate patients. Three of the high-ascorbate patients were still alive, their average survival being 1550 days, on April 1, 1980. Similar effectiveness of ascorbate (vitamin C) was also observed at the Kamioka Kozan Hospital. There were 31 patients with terminal cancer during the period 1975-1979. The average survival times were 48 days for 19 control patients and 115 days for 6 high-ascorbate patients. One of the high-ascorbate patients was still alive, his survival being 215 days. In addition to the increase in survival times, the administration of large doses of ascorbate (vitamin C) seemed to improve the quality of life." [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6811475]

7. In a joint study conducted by Nobel Prize Laureate Linus Pauling and Ewan Cameron of the Vale of Leven Hospital, Scotland, terminal cancer patients increased survival dramatically with high dose oral ascorbic acid (vitamin c). “A study has been made of the survival times of 100 terminal cancer patients who were given supplemental ascorbate, usually 10 g/day, as part of their routine management and 1000 matched controls, similar patients who had received the same treatment except for the ascorbate (vitamin c). The ascorbate-treated patients were found to have a mean survival time about 300 days greater than that of the controls. Survival times greater than 1 yr after the date of untreatability were observed for 22% of the ascorbate-treated patients and for 0.4% of the controls. The mean survival time of these 22 ascorbate-treated patients is 2.4 yr after reaching the apparently terminal stage; 8 of the ascorbate-treated patients are still alive, with a mean survival time after untreatability of 3.5 yr.” [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/279931] 

Within the 5th Phase of Cancer the following sequence of events can be observed in the cancer patient:

12 Step Cancer Survivor Program

Step 1: Healing the root psycho-emotional cause of cancer

As revealed in the 6 phases of cancer, it is suppressed negative emotions (principally anger, hate, resentment and grief) which cause and continue to fuel cancer at the cellular level. Finding a way to remove these toxic emotions is critical to long term cancer recovery. The 93-page evidence-based thesis, "Psycho-Oncology: The 6 Phases of Cancer", reveals exactly how cancer develops in the body due to the suppression of toxic negative emotions. It is recommended you undertake sessions with an experienced healer of emotions (such as an EFT specialist) who can work with you to permanently remove these toxic emotions. Continuing a daily self-healing program to express and release cancer-causing emotions is also strongly advised and the Cancer Healing Guide is designed for this purpose. The Vipassana meditation technique is also beneficial for releasing toxic emotions. You are also encouraged to explore the link between anger, unforgiveness and cancer and unresolved complicated grief and cancer. The book, "Healing Dis-ease in the Mind of Christ", will help you uncover the spiritual cause of why dis-ease is present. We are aware of illnesses having spontaneously healed during the reading of this book.

Step 2: Systems change (Removing stressful conditions)

As revealed by world-renowned cancer researcher Lothar Hirneise, 100% of all late stage 'miracle' cancer survivors of the hundreds he interviewed had all made dramatic system changes in their life before getting well, and had typically left a highly stressful job or relationship or highly stressful living condition. This is because those diagnosed with cancer have significantly elevated stress hormone cortisol levels, which deplete all-important adrenaline reserves (as outlined in phase 2 of cancer), breaking the cell's Kreb's Citric Acid Cycle, causing cell mutation and cancer. By removing anything in your life that is causing significant stress, this will help to normalize cortisol and adrenaline levels, and thus halt the condition known as cancer.

Step 3: Active relaxing to lower stress cortisol levels

Over many years the typical cancer personality has trained their body to remain rigid and tense in response to life stressors. And when the body is not relaxed the mind will not relax sufficiently enough to enter the deep-sleep-cycle to produce melatonin, which is the primary hormone responsible for inhibiting cancer cell growth. It is this "body stress" which continues to deplete all-important adrenaline reserves in phase 2 of cancer. You should ideally spend 2 hours each day in active relaxation mode to lower stress hormone cortisol levels, which in turn will help restore adrenaline reserves and enable you to enter the deep-sleep-cycle to produce melatonin. Here are some ways to actively relax: sitting amongst nature, walking on the beach, swimming, tai chi, aromatherapy massage, watching funny movies, join a laughter therapy group, holistic pulsing, meditation, deep breathing exercises, lavender oil therapy, and listening to a guided relaxation recording.

Step 4: Using meditation to increase melatonin levels

As revealed in phase 1 of cancer, melatonin is the primary hormone responsible for inhibiting cancer cell growth. It does this by producing interleukin 2 (IL-2) which governs the production of (cancer killing) immune system T cells, B cells, natural killer cells, macrophages and neutrophils. Melatonin is produced in the pineal gland of the brain between the hours of 1am and 3am in the morning during uninterrupted deep sleep. The cancer personality who suppresses for long periods toxic emotions (of anger, hate, resentment, and/or grief) is generally unable to enter this critical deep sleep cycle and therefore becomes depleted of melatonin over time -- one day at a time. Removing the toxic emotions that disrupt deep sleep and lowering stress hormone cortisol levels will naturally correct the problem, however studies have demonstrated meditation can also be used to produce melatonin by stimulating the pineal gland. Consider meditating for 30 minutes per day as part of your 2 hours of daily relaxation.

Step 5: Supporting / boosting the immune system

There are a number of conditions that suppress or weaken the immune system: including high stress hormone cortisol levels, depleted melatonin and dopamine levels, parasites, pathogen microbes (viruses, bacteria, fungus), as well as chemotherapy and radiation. When the immune system is suppressed or weakened, the "cancer fungus" in phase 3 thrives. We recommend you incorporate at least one protocol to support and boost your immune system. High Dose Vitamin C Therapy can be used for this purpose and should wherever possible be used PRIOR to chemotherapy and radiation. Consider also: Fever Therapy, DMG, Lemon Juice Therapy, and Avemar. Note: If you are undertaking chemotherapy or radiation, consider Graviola capsules to prevent side-effects such as hair loss, nausea, and general malaise and energy loss. This natural product also prevents cell-resistance to chemotherapy.

Step 6: Removing the cancer fungus

As revealed by the Holy Spirit of God in phase 3 of cancer, what we know as cancer is in fact seven different types of fungus. When the cancer personality experiences prolonged chronic stress, somatids (tiny microorganisms necessary for life) that live in our body pleomorphise [or change] into yeast-like-fungus to ferment rising glucose and lactic acid in cells. In a healthy person, somatids are limited to 3 stages in their life cycle - somatid, spore, double spore. However, in a highly acidic (low pH) lactic acid environment, somatids pleomorphise into a further 13 stages. These stages include viral-bacterial-yeast-like-fungus forms that: a) migrate to the cell nucleus releasing "mycotoxins" causing cell DNA damage and the mutation of normal cells into cancer cells, and b) ferments the glucose in cancer cells, providing a natural growth factor for cancer and tumor cells to metastasize in the body. For this reason it is recommended you include at least one of the following protocols to remove and keep at bay the cancer-fungus in your body: Apple Cider Vinegar, Garlic, Baking Soda, Essiac Tea, Clarkia, and Hyperthermia.

Step 7: Detoxing the liver and colon of toxins

Those with cancer are typically overloaded with toxins in the key immune system organs of the body: the liver and colon. Toxins include "mycotoxins" or acidic waste products caused by: 1) the cancer-fungus, 2) a poor diet, 3) chemicals, alcohol, tobacco, 4) antibiotics, 5) chemotherapy agents, 6) fermentation of stress hormones, 7) poor exercise regime causing a build-up of lactic acid, and 8) dead microbes, parasites and cancer cells. These toxins build up primarily in the liver -- the master immune system organ. When the liver is overloaded with these toxins, your immune system is weakened and you feel sicker, and cancer and viral-bacterial-yeast-like-fungus thrives. Thus it is very important to have a plan to detox the liver (the master immune system organ), the colon (the intestinal immune system), as well as the gall bladder and kidneys -- especially if you are undertaking a treatment to kill cancer cells or the cancer fungus. If you don't, your liver simply cannot remove all the dead microbes and cancer cells, which remain overloaded in the liver. It is strongly recommended you include a daily treatment plan for detoxing the liver and colon. See Liver-Colon Cleanse for further details. Ozonated Water should be considered also, for it is a superb body detoxifier, but should NOT be used by those with lung cancer or lung conditions.

Step 8: Restoring the Krebs' Cycle with niacin & vitamin C

Cancer can only exist when the Krebs' Citric Acid Cycle of a person's body cells is broken. And this is due to adrenaline depletion (in phase 2), niacin deficiency (in phase 4) and vitamin C depletion (in phase 5), all of which are caused by prolonged chronic stress. Dr Abram Hoffer, the department head of psychiatry at a major hospital in Canada, started using niacin and high doses of ascorbic acid (vitamin C) to treat psychiatric patients and found (by accident) that it also effected a cure in some of his patients with cancer. He subsequently found of 132 patients he treated in his own private practice with advanced stage cancer, 101 patients who followed his program (below) lived on average 16 times longer than the 31 patients who did not or could not follow his program. Dr Abram Hoffer and Linus Pauling presented the following study findings: "Mean survival time for the 31 patients who did not follow the regimen is 5.7 months. Of the others, who did follow the regimen, 20% were poor responders, with mean survival time 10 months, and 80% were good responders, with mean survival time 122 months for 32 patients with cancer of the breast, ovary, cervix, and uterus and 72 months for 47 patients with other kinds of cancer." [Click here to read the full Abram Hoffer/Linus Pauling study and patient survival times.]

Dr Abram Hoffer recommended the following regime to his patients: "The first thing I try to do is to cut their fat way down. So, I put them all on a dairy free program. I reduce, but I don't eliminate, meat and fish, and I ask them to increase their vegetables, especially raw, as much as they can. I think it's a good, reasonable diet, which most people can follow without too much difficulty. Having spent some time with them going over what they ought to eat, I begin to talk about the nutrients. The first one, of course, is vitamin C. The dose is variable. I find that most patients can take 12 grams per day without much difficulty, that's the crystalline vitamin C sodium ascorbate or calcium ascorbate. They take one teaspoon three times per day. If they do not develop diarrhea, I ask them to increase it until this occurs and then to cut back below that level. I think in many cases it would be desirable to use intravenous vitamin C. I also add vitamin B-3, either niacin or niacinamide. I prescribe from 500 mg to 1500 mg per day. I also add a B (vitamin) complex preparation 50 or 100. I think vitamin E is an extremely important anti-oxidant and I use that as well, 800 to 1200 I.U. They also get 25,000 to 75,000 units of beta carotene. I s
ometimes use vitamin A. (One cup of raw carrot juice contains 36,600 units of beta carotene, which converts to vitamin A). I like to use folic acid for lung cancer, and for cancer of the uterus. I use selenium, 200 mcg, three times per day. I use some zinc, especially for prostatic cancers and I do use calcium-magnesium." [Click here to read Dr Abram Hoffer's complete Niacin and Vitamin C Protocol]

[Note: Sourcing the correct ascorbic acid is important. NutriBiotic Ascorbic Acid 100% Pure Vitamin C 5lb from www.iHerb.com appear to offer the best value bulk pharmaceutical grade crystalline ascorbic acid.]

Step 9: Re-alkalizing the body's natural pH balance

As discovered by Otto Warburg, cancer cells only survive in a low pH highly acidic environment, and this is why those with cancer typically have a low pH of between 4.0 and 6.5pH. This highly acidic environment occurs when the Krebs' Citric Acid Cycle of the cell is broken due prolonged chronic stress depleting all-important adrenaline reserves. As the cell can no longer produce ATP energy via the Krebs' Citric Acid Cycle, the cell instead ferments glucose [to obtain smaller amounts of ATP energy] via the process known as Glycolysis, causing lactic acid levels to rise sharply within the cell. This lactic acid problem is further compounded when the somatid in phase 3 of cancer pleomorphises into the cancer-fungus to ferment rising glucose and lactic acid, itself releasing acidic waste products called "mycotoxins". As cancer cells find it difficult to survive in a high pH alkaline environment of 7.5 or greater, it is therefore essential to: 1) Remove the lactic-acid forming psycho-emotional stress (i.e. toxic negative emotions), 2) introduce alkaline-based foods, and 3) include dextrorotatory lactic acid, which is administered in homeopathic form as prescribed by Dr Waltraut Fryda in phase 2 of cancer.

Step 10: Reversing the subconscious desire to "exit life"

As revealed by the Holy Spirit of God in phase 6 of cancer, cancer manifests as a result of a subconscious wanting to "exit life", caused by the individual feeling overwhelmed by the pain of life and no longer having a strong desire or will to live. This desire to exit life -- experienced not so much consciously, but at the subconscious "feeling level" of the mind -- sends subliminal messages to the immune system to shut down and stop working, enabling cancer cells and the cancer-fungus to thrive. God reveals it is important to examine this subconscious desire to exit life and to see whether 2-4 years prior to diagnosis you felt this way, and to make the decision to re-activate the immune system, by generating an energy of wanting to live that is greater than the energy to exit life. The Cancer Healing Guide will help you examine your will to live in greater depth, and of course, removing the toxic negative emotions (emotional pain) that caused the subconscious desire to exit life is a critical key component.

Step 11: Connecting to God / your Higher Spiritual Self

At Puna Wai Ora, we regularly receive messages from God to guide us in the work we are doing. When we asked what is the best late stage alternative cancer treatment available, the first reply we received was prayer. The Angels spoke of the Lord's Prayer spoken out loud daily - preferably in Latin - was the most effective late stage cancer treatment. They indicated it was important to: 1. Ask God for forgiveness of any wrong-doings, 2. Ask God to fill them with white love and light, 3. Ask for the pain to be diminished in Jesus' name [or another spiritual being you pray to], 4. State "Please bless me with white love and light in Jesus' name and let the healing begin", and 5. Thank God, Jesus and the Angels for their healing and your recovery. These are the words of God delivered by the angels: "God will decide if a miracle happens. They need to connect with themselves more that they are on the right path to awareness of spiritual realms and God. They must believe in God to get through, to have more faith and trust in God. Once they open up, they will be open up in more ways than one. Their pain will not be as intense, they will be comforted."

Step 12: Choosing an alternative cancer treatment

It is important to choose at least one alternative cancer treatment to target and eliminate cancer cells within the body. In most cases you should only need to choose one treatment in addition to the above 11 steps. We highly recommend your alternative cancer treatment include at least one dietary treatment such as the Johanna Budwig Cancer Diet, the Gerson Therapy Cancer Diet, the Bill Henderson Diet Protocol (based on the Budwig diet), or the Brandt Grape Cure. The 42 day organic juice fast known as the Breuss Cure or Breuss Treatment has also been used in the treatment of cancer. Remember, always choose a diet you enjoy that fosters a will to live. To view a list of further treatment options, see: Alternative Cancer Treatments.

God reveals Cancer is
​seven types of fungus

In this extraordinary revelation, the Holy Spirit of God reveals cancer is in fact seven different types of fungus. The Holy Spirit of God also reveals the two natural remedies for reversing this disease at the outer physical level.


God reveals the cancer-fungus is caused by a subconscious wanting to "exit life"

In a further extraordinary revelation, the Holy Spirit of God reveals cancer is caused by a subconscious wanting to "exit life". Healing the mind-body-spirit is thus a crucial step to fostering a will to live.


Glen Russell: The weed that is cancer must be cut off at the root, to ensure it does not regrow. Many cut off the top of the weed (what we see at the surface) by taking physical remedies; but the root of the dis-ease, the spiritual and mental dis-ease, is often left behind.

Restoring the Krebs' Citric Acid Cycle: A two-pronged approach

As the patient makes a sustained effort to cut off the root of the cancer weed (the spiritual and mental dis-ease), this will begin the process of normalising the Krebs' Citric Acid Cycle naturally, through the normalisation of adrenaline levels and niacin and vitamin C levels. Yet this takes time. And if the cancer has progressed to such a point, that as revealed by God in phase 6 of Cancer may be difficult to reverse, the approach taken by Dr Abram Hoffer and Linus Pauling in Step 8 (below) demonstrates that even in a high percentage of late-stage cancer patients, long term survival is possible using simply this outer physical "Krebs" approach. An analogy one could equate is such: The house is on fire (the cancer in the body) and all the conditions for creating the fire are in the process of being removed (in steps 1-4), yet the fire still burns. So a two-pronged approach is often necessary to both contain and stamp out the existing fire, while at the same time removing all conditions that could restart the fire anew.


Dr Lorraine Day's experience with the Gerson Therapy

Dr Lorraine Day, former Chief of Staff of Orthopedic Surgery at San Francisco General Hospital, reveals how after using the Gerson Therapy Cancer Diet for 8-9 months to cure her cancer, without addressing the root underlying psycho-emotional cause, that the cancer came back even more aggressively.

About this
​Program

The 12 Step Cancer Survivor Program has been prepared by Glen Russell of Puna Wai Ora Mind-Body Cancer Clinic. It points to critical areas to be considered when one is seeking to reverse the 6 phases of cancer outlined in Psycho-Oncology: The 6 Phases of Cancer.

FAQ

1. Is it necessary to include all 12 steps in this program?

The answer is no. For example, you may address healing the root psycho-emotional cause of cancer (in Step 1) and do this successfully, and combine this with killing the cancer fungus (in Step 6), or with restoring the Krebs' Citric Acid Cycle (in Step 8). If you restore the Krebs' Citric Acid Cycle, this automatically prevents normal cells mutating into the cancer fungus, so in effect Step 6 would not be necessary; although you can do both (Step 6 and Step 8) to super-charge the effect.

Similarly, you could combine Step 1 with a cancer diet (such as the Gerson Therapy Cancer Diet) in Step 12. Both of these steps contribute to eliminating the cancer fungus (in Step 6) and also contribute to normalising pH acid/alkaline levels (in Step 9). Step 1, that is the healing of the root psycho-emotional cause of cancer, also contributes to normalising melatonin, adrenaline and stress hormone cortisol levels, so steps 2-4 are not crucially important if you are already implementing Step 1 correctly.

Deciding which steps to include comes down to personal choice; for not every step of this program is either suitable or well-tolerated; and some of the therapies may present as a contraindication to a patient with a pre-existing condition (such as ozone water should not be consumed by those with lung disease or lung cancer). With that said, one could certainly do all 12 steps of this program (which predominantly are natural therapies) under the supervision of their doctor.

2. Should I undertake chemotherapy / radiation while on this program?

The 12 Step Cancer Survivor Program includes therapies which generally fall under the category of "complementary and alternative medicine" or CAM. For the most part, these therapies support the immune system and the healing process during harsher treatments, such as chemotherapy and radiation. For example, vitamin C is known to protect the immune system during chemotherapy, and hyperthermia is known to increase the effectiveness of radiation.

While there is some anecdotal evidence of survival rates being greater amongst those who do both mainstream medicine and CAM, deciding whether to undertake chemotherapy and radiation remains always a personal choice.

It must also be stressed that Linus Pauling concluded in his research that the effectiveness of high-dose vitamin C was not as effective if used AFTER chemotherapy, versus prior to chemotherapy.

3. Do people recover from cancer on this program?

A number of individuals with late stage cancer who have worked one-on-one with Glen Russell to heal the root psycho-emotional cause of cancer (in Step 1) have entered into complete remission within 2 weeks of having completed their sessions. Some of these patients, including two medical doctors, are mentioned as case studies in Psycho-Oncology: The 6 Phases of Cancer. This, however, does not mean the cancer could not return if the patient does not change their mental outlook, and "re-creates" the psychological conditions that leads to a new bout of cancer.

Apart from these cases who have worked one-on-one with Glen, it is difficult to ascertain the effectiveness of this program, as many combine this program (or parts of it) with other alternative or mainstream therapies.
