Dandelion root- another cancer killer herb

The University of Windsor Canada conveyed a study and the results gave new hope to cancer patients. It was found that the dandelion root effectively “kills” the cancer cells without harmful effects on the other healthy cells in the body.
John Di Carlo, 72 year-old man, was personally convinced in the healing properties of dandelion. After undergoing intense and “aggressive” chemotherapy for three years, the doctors sent him home to spend the last days with his loved ones.
Due to the fact that there was no positive effect of chemotherapy and doctors advised him to try alternative remedies to treat cancer, John began to drink tea from the dandelion root as a final attempt to defeat cancer. Only after four months, he defeated cancer for good.

Anti Cancer herbs

Anti-Cancer Herbs

by Dr. Bhavana Joshi
Triphala Fruits and PowderTriphala :
How It Works
Bottom Line: The anticancer effect of Triphala has not been confirmed in humans. 

Triphala is an herbal formulation used in the Indian medicinal system of Ayurveda for the treatment of various ailments. It consists of three medicinal plants: Emblica officinalis, Terminalia chebula, and Terminalia belerica. It is used for anemia, jaundice, constipation, asthma, fever, chronic ulcers, inflammation, obesity and to strengthen the immune system against infections such as pneumonia, tuberculosis, and AIDS. Triphala was shown to have beneficial effects in studies done in laboratory and in animals. However human data are lacking.
Purported Uses
  • To treat Infections. Studies done in mice showed that Triphala can reduce infections. No studies have been done in humans.
  • To decrease high levels of cholesterol. Triphala was shown to reduce cholesterol levels in rats with high cholesterol. However, this has not been studied in humans.
  • To strengthen the immune system. Studies in rats have shown that Triphala can improve immune function but human data are lacking.
Research Evidence

Several laboratory studies have shown that Triphala has beneficial effects. However, it has not been studied in humans. 

Side Effects 

Intestinal gas Stomach upset Diarrhea.

Constituents

Amla (Emblica officinalis) Myrobalan (Terminalia chebula) Belleric Myrobalan (Terminalia belerica). 

Mechanism of Action 

The exact mechanism of action is not known although the polyphenols and flavonoids are thought to be responsible for many of Triphala's effects. Gallic acid, a major polyphenol in Triphala, has antioxidant property. Triphala also increased the reactive oxygen species (ROS) in breast cancer cells (MCF-7 and T-47D), resulting in apoptosis. Terminalia chebula, one of the components of Triphala, was shown to be a potent hyaluronidase and collagenase inhibitor that prevented degradation of cartilage. Triphala also protected mice from radiation-induced mortality. Oral administration of Triphala enhanced the immune functions in rats. 

Adverse Reactions

Intestinal gas, stomach upset, diarrhea.
Ashwagandha : How It Works 
Bottom Line: While ashwagandha has shown an ability to hinder the growth of cancer cells in laboratory tests and enhance radiation therapy in animals, it is unknown if these effects can be replicated in humans. 

AshwagandhaA popular Ayurvedic medicinal substance derived from the root and berry of the plant. Ashwagandha contains numerous biologically active components. It is thought that some of these components can influence potent hormone-like substances that cause arthritis inflammation. Extracts of the root also increase the number of red and white blood cells and platelets in the blood. Ashwagandha has been shown to relax the central nervous system in animals. Studies in laboratories have shown that extracts of ashwagandha kill some cancer cells and enhance some immune cells. It is thought that the structure of ashwagandha extracts may damage the cancer cells ability to generate the energy it needs to reproduce. Ashwagandha also reduces the level of glutathione, an antioxidant, in tumor cells which may enhance the effects of radiation therapy against those cells. Studies in animals have demonstrated possible toxicity, however comparable effects have not been observed in humans. 
Purported Uses 
To treat cancer 

While ashwagandha has shown promise in animal and laboratory studies, few trials have demonstrated an effect in humans.

To treat diabetes
No scientific evidence supports this use.

To treat epilepsy
No scientific evidence supports this use.

To reduce fatigue
Ashwagandha has been shown to increase blood cell counts in the lab, however it is unclear if this will reduce fatigue in humans.

To treat digestive disorders
No scientific evidence supports this use.

To maintain health
Ashwagandha has antioxidant properties in lab tests, however it is unclear if it will have any effect on humans.

To reduce pain
Ashwagandha has been shown to have a tranquilizing effect in animals. It is unclear if this will reduce pain in humans.

To treat rheumatoid arthritis
A clinical trial showed effectiveness of a herbomineral formula containing ashwagandha. To what extent ashwagandha played a role in the reduction in pain severity and disability is unclear.

As a sedative
Ashwagandha has been shown to have a tranquilizing effect in animals. It is unclear if it has a similar effect in humans.

To treat skin infections
No scientific evidence supports this use.

To relieve stress
Ashwagandha has been shown to have a tranquilizing effect in animals. It is unclear if it has a similar effect in humans.

Research Evidence

Arthritis Pain:

Forty-two volunteers with osteoarthritis participated in a trial of a herbomineral formula containing ashwagandha. Volunteers were randomly assigned to receive either a combination of herbs and minerals or placebo for three months. After a fifteen-day washout period, treatments were reversed. Volunteers in the treatment group reported significant drops in pain severity and disability score with few side effects. Because a combination of herbs was used, it is unclear if ashwagandha played an important role in the results. 
Warnings: Do Not Take If
You are pregnant.
     (Ashwagandha  may induce abortion.)
You are taking sedatives.
     (Ashwagandha may increase sedative effects.)
Scientific Name : Withania somnifera.
Family: Solanaceae

Constituents
Alkanoids: isopelletierine, anaferine
Steroidal lactones: withanolides, withaferins
Saponins: sitoindoside VII and VIII Iron 

Mechanism of Action 
Alkaloids, steroidal lactones, saponins and withanolides are thought to be the biologically active components. Studies have pointed to cyclooxygenase inhibition as the cause of the herb's anti-arthritis properties. Ashwagandha's anti-inflammatory effects were comparable to hydrocortisone sodium succinate in rats. The root extract of the herb produced significant increases in hemoglobin concentration, red blood cell count, white blood cell count and platelet count. Ashwagandha has been shown to exhibit antioxidant effects in the brain and to have a tranquilizing effect on the central nervous system in animals. In vitro, isolates from the root of the plant have cytotoxic properties against H-460, HCT-116, SF-268 and MCF-7 cell lines. Ashwagandha increase cytotoxic T lymphocyte production. Other studies show ashwagandha's cytotoxicity is related to its structure and that it enhances ATPase and inhibits succinate dehydrogenase activity, impairing oxidative phosphorylation. In animal studies, ashwagandha can increase the effects of radiation therapy and inhibits tumor growth. The herb also reduces tumor GSH levels which may contribute to the enhancement of radiation response. Ashwagandha can reverse paclitaxel induced neutropenia in mice. Significant toxicity was observed at high doses in animal studies, however, toxicity studies in humans are limited.

PLANTS AND FLEX SEED OILD TO PREVENT CANCERS

University of Sao Paulo, Brazil, scientist, Eduardo Schenberg,  published a piece in Sage Journals, detailing his belief that Ayahuasca has cancer-fighting abilities, essentially encouraging the legalization of research in the field.Ayahuasca’s active principles, especially DMT and harmine, have positive effects in some cell cultures used to study cancer, and in biochemical processes important in cancer treatment, both in vitro and in vivo, by diminshing blood supply to cancer cells, activate apoptotic pathways, diminish cell proliferation, and change the energetic metabolic imbalance of cancer cells, which is known as the Warburg effect
The DMT in Ayahuasca is primarily found in the leaves of the Psychotria Viridis plant, or the seeds of Syrian Rue, or both.

MUSHROOM-ANTICANCER PLANT/FUNGUS

Mushrooms provides nutrients and  also boost immune system. Research done by Robert Murphy, M.D., a naturopathic doctor in private practice in Torrington, Connecticut.
The active polysaccharide in maitake mushrooms, called beta-glucan or D-fraction, has been highly effective in shrinking tumors in laboratory animals, maybe even more effective than lentinan, say experts.

CAMPHOR- AN PROVEN ANTICANCER DRUGS HELPS TO STOP CANCERS.I can not use CURE.


CamphorCAMPHOR is anticancerous properties  714-X claimed by supporters to have anticancer activity is camphor that has been chemically modified by the addition of an extra nitrogen atom. Chemical analysis of 714-X by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration found that it consists of 94 percent water; about 5 percent nitrate; 1.4 percent ammonium; less than 1 percent each ethanol, sodium, and chloride; and less than .01 percent camphor. 714-X is used as a complementary/alternative method in Canada, Western Europe, and Mexico to treat cancer, AIDS, and other diseases. It is not legally available in the United States.
DISTRIBUTOR

Camphor is a white crystalline substance, obtained from the tree Cinnamonum camphora, but the name has been given to various concrete odorous volatile products, found in different aromatic plants. The commercial Camphor comes only from C. camphora and Dryobalanops camphora (fam. Dipterocarpacaea). The first gives our official Camphor, the latter the Borneo Camphor, which is much valued in the East, but unknown in Europe and America. C. camphora is an evergreen tree looking not unlike our linden; it grows to a great size, is manybranched, flowers white, small and clustered, fruit a red berry much like cinnamon.READ MORE

How is it promoted for use?

According to its proponents of 714-X, people with serious illnesses, such as cancer, carry tiny living particles in their bloodstream called somatids. Proponents claim that disease can be diagnosed and monitored by noting the number and forms of somatids in a person's blood. 714-X is said to cure cancer and AIDS by interfering with the flow of somatids through the bloodstream. This interference is said to cause the immune system to grow stronger and cause diseases to regress.
Proponents claim that cancer cells produce a substance called co-cancerogenic K factor (CKF), which protects the cells from the immune system. 714-X supposedly supplies the body with nitrogen, which strips this protective substance and leaves tumor cells vulnerable to attack by the immune system.
Evidence to support these claims has not been published in any available peer-reviewed, scientific journals.

What does it involve?

714-X is prepared as a sterile solution and injected into a lymph node in the groin. Ice packs are used to cool the area of injection both before and after. A course of treatment involves daily injections for 21 days, followed by 2 or 3 days of rest. The cycle typically repeated several times.
714-X can also be given nasally, using a nebulizer. This route is more commonly used for lung or oral cancers.
In Canada, 714-X is available only on a compassionate use basis. While it is not approved for general therapeutic use, doctors may request it under the Emergency Drug Release Program of Health Canada. It is not approved, however, for general therapeutic use. In October 2004, Health Canada instructed Naessen's company CERBE, the company that sells 714-X, to remove statements concerning 714-X from its public Web site.
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has not approved 714-X for use in the United States, and it is illegal to import it into the country.

What is the history behind it?

Early in his career, French-born scientist Gaston Naessens developed the somatoscope, a special microscope that he used to examine blood at extremely high magnifications. Using the somatoscope, Naessens claimed to have discovered tiny living organisms called somatids in the blood of people with serious diseases, including cancer. He believed that somatids were different from bacteria, fungi, viruses, or other microbes previously identified by other scientists and that they were responsible for the development of disease.

SOURSOP IS > 100K STRONGER KILLING CANCER CELLS.

sorsopfruitThe soursop contains a long, prickly green fruit which happens to kill cancer up to 10,000 times more effectively than the strongest chemotherapy drugs, all without the harmful horrible side effects. Graviola contains cytotoxic compounds that destroy cancer cells with ‘lethal precision’ while leaving healthy cells unharmed.
Over a quarter of a century ago, a study was performed on the seeds of the soursop fruit, which at the time demonstrated such amazing cancer-fighting potential, that those exposed to it within the conventional medical community looked upon it with complete incredulity.
Since the 1996 study, little research on Graviola was performed. There was a cell study in 1999 which showed it had anti-prostate cancer and breast cancer activity; another 2002 cell study showed that Graviola exhibited anti-hepatoma (liver cancer) activity, but nothing as promising as the original 1996 study ever followed.

Researcher say:
“A a 5-wk dietary treatment of GFE (200 mg/kg diet) significantly reduced the protein expression of EGFR, p-EGFR, and p-ERK in MDA-MB-468 [breast cancer] tumors by 56%, 54%, and 32.5%, respectively. Overall, dietary GFE inhibited tumor growth, as measured by wet weight, by 32% (P < 0.01).”
“These data showed that dietary GFE induced significant growth inhibition of MDA-MB-468 cells in vitro and in vivo through a mechanism involving the EGFR/ERK signaling pathway, suggesting that GFE may have a protective effect for women against EGFR-overexpressing BC [breast cancer].”
Research shows that with extracts from this miraculous tree it now may be possible to: Attack cancer safely and effectively with an all-natural therapy that does not cause extreme nausea, weight loss and hair loss Protect your immune system and avoid deadly infections Feel stronger and healthier throughout the course of the treatment Boost your energy and improve your outlook on life.
