Leukemia [Bone Marrow/Blood Cancer]: Possible Natural Treatments
« on: October 16, 2007, 10:01:50 PM » by faith

we just heard a friends of our son in law's brother's 9 year old son Ryan, became pale and collapsed in school today. He was taken to the hospital and diagnosed with leukemia. They have given him a blood transfusion.
We are praying. Please pray for Ryan and his family.
I was also wondering if there is anything health wise that can be done.
Thank you for your prayers. Faith

I don't have much to base this on but my first thoughts are to suggest you research Pau D'arco and also Goldenseal.

My mom researched childhood leukemia and kept up with a few parents of kids that were diagnosed this way. She noted that in many cases a fungal systemic yeast problem was also present. One child she knew was sent home to die as a no-hope-of-recovery case, and given Nystatin for the yeast overgrowth, to help insure comfort until he died. He recovered. The parents linked it to Nystatin (anti-yeast drug.) http://health.howstuffworks.com/define-nystatin.htm

A second couple read mom's research (just a letter) and asked that their child be taken off of chemo and put on Nystatin. The hospital refused, of course. I believe the child was also released to go home, between chemo, with very little hope of survival. The parents treated for yeast, and the child recovered. I don't know the end of that story, or how it turned out...

Quote

Some doctors implicate fungi as a cause of leukemia. In 1999 Meinolf Karthaus, MD, watched three different children with leukemia suddenly go into remission upon receiving a triple antifungal drug cocktail for their "secondary" fungal infections.

In 1997 Mark Bielski stated that leukemia, whether acute or chronic, is intimately associated with the yeast, Candida albicans, which mutates into a fungal form when it overgrows.

Milton White, MD. believed that cancer is a chronic, infectious, fungus disease. He was able to find fungal spores in every sample of cancer tissue he studied. Some other doctors agree with him. Such as the Italian doctor who has his patients take a teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda, baking soda, in a glass of water half an hour before breakfast. This alkalinized the digestive tract so that it would help eliminate candida.

That is very intresting. My younger sister had a friend who died from leukemia after having two reocurrences. She too was sent home to die and did. Her diet never changed-- typical SAD diet. Her parents believed the doctors so completely that at the end of the girl's life she was treated to special meals. One of her external last symptoms was bleeding steadilly from the nose and ears. We became good friends with their family after she was having her last recurrence, and I don't think she ever was anything but an unnatural pale. Blood transfusions were the norm. I wonder if on top of treating for yeast infection some herbs that strengthen and clean the blood and blood vessels would help as well, like Burdock.

Interesting. Both Pau D'arco and Goldenseal are powerful yeast-killers. (I wonder if I read something on this before and don't remember.)

Isn't leukemia also an auto-immune disease? My first thought would be to build up the immune system with LOTS of Vit.C, and other immune boosters, which would also help the whole body. My brother had leukemia as a small child, and while he was treated with chemo and the whole medical route, he made it through, went into remission and has been cancer-free for almost 15 years. My parents found a naturopath dr. after he was "cured' who gave him a whole bunch of herbal supplements to detox his system from all the treatments he received. Echinacea/goldenseal was a big one I remember, along with others, and we also all started taking garlic regularly. I know you're looking for more treatment options, but if you have to go the typical way, it's good to know you can help yourself at the end.

May God's healing hand be on Ryan! It's a devastating change in life, but God's grace is sufficient.

I have been thinking about autoimmune diseases recently. These are only thoughts Wink

but is purposeful immune boosting the best way to go? The immune system is already hyper active...what about anti-inflammatory supplements and diet instead. Cleansing and diet restrictions to reduce internal irritations and supplements to calm the immune system so that it can reset?

I can see where you're coming from... I guess one would have to learn what exactly the immune system is doing, in order to know how to treat it. I had thought that being the immune system was not working properly, it would be good to help it, but it makes sense to not over activate it too. Hmm, guess it'd be good to read up some more.

Wow, HB, did that all make sense to you? Shocked

I enjoy stretching my mind when I read, but that was a real stretch! I think I got a few points, though.

I can see the prevention of cancer there... What do you know, it starts with the diet - surprise, surprise! (not) I guess if I had cancer then, I would start with a yeast cleanse and total diet change as the very first step...

Study shows that 76% of leukemia cells exposed to Grape-seed Extract, died within 24% hours.

http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2008/12/081231005257.htm

I also wanted to say that I did find that Pau d'Arco is effective against some cancers and a mainstream hospital in Brazil has used it that way. Leukemia was one of the cancers they treat with it.

Thanks WR! Someone (else Roll Eyes

) told my dad about the Grapeseed Extract, so he's been taking it. He goes back in for blood tests in a couple of weeks, so we will see if it has helped any.

I've also read about Pau d'Arco being used for leukemia.

I recently began doing some research on the benefits of Barley Grass Powder....and we have begun putting it in our smoothies each morning.

There were some research facts listed regarding different forms of Cancer with Barley Grass extract being found effective.....

"There have been no clinical trials of barley grass. In an experiment at George Washington University, Goldstein and his colleagues exposed leukemic cancer cells to dehydrated barley grass extract. The extract killed virtually all of them. Encouraged, the researchers then subjected brain cancer cells to the extract. It eradicated 30 to 50 percent of these cells. In a third trial, the extract inhibited the growth of three types of prostate cancer cells by 90 to 100 percent."

here is the link to the site/article
http://www.healingcancernaturally.com/barley-green-powder-medicine.html

also I found the cheapest place to purchase it was
www.vitacost.com
I bought it in a one pound package and am very happy with the product...it was under $10
NUTRIENT PROFILE for barley grass

BY WEIGHT, dehydrated barley grass has 11 times the calcium of cow's milk, 5 times the iron of spinach, and more protein than sirloin steak. About 2 teaspoons (6 g) of barley grass powder contains the following*;
