Natural Cure for Cancer?

Knockout by Suzanne Somers, Attacks Cancer Establishment

Suzanne’s new book, Knockout, relates her personal story with cancer in which she searches for doctors curing cancer with new techniques.  In the book, Somers interviews pioneering MD’s who successfully treat cancer patients using new or innovative treatments not recognized by the cancer establishment.  The book brings to light new information that the cancer establishment desperately seeks to suppress, and indicts chemotherapy and mainstream cancer treatment as largely ineffective.

The Establishment Fights Back- Larry King Canceled

Suzanne’s scheduled Book Interview on the Larry King Live show Monday night at 9 PM was canceled and hastily replaced by Wolf Blitzer’s pablum.  The canceled Larry King Show with Suzanne included two of the doctors from her book, Stanislaw Burzynski and Nicholas Gonzalez.  Wolf says the show has been rescheduled for Friday night at 9 PM.

Why the cancellation?  I suspect the networks are being pressured by the cancer establishment not to air the show.  After all, cancer treatment is a big business run by large corporations that fund the television networks with huge advertising revenues.  Allowing Suzanne Somers to highlight alternative cancer treatments that work is not in their best interest, nor is it in the best interest of the TV networks who depend on advertising revenue from these corporations.   The last thing their shareholders want is a huge bite out of annual profits.

Book Interview With Ann Curry Today Show

Suzanne appeared with Ann Curry on the Today show Monday Oct 19, in a brief 4 minute Book Interview (see clip below).

Susan’s Cancer Scare

Susan relates a frightening experience when she entered the hospital with respiratory symptoms and was told she had cancer spreading throughout her lungs.  Thankfully it was a false alarm.  A lung biopsy showed it was not cancer, rather it was a common fungal illness, Valley Fever, also called coccidiomycosis.  Years ago in my training days as a radiologist, we commonly saw evidence of old “Valley Fever” infections on Chest X-Rays as characteristic small rounded calcifications in the lungs.  These were incidental findings that required no treatment.

The Failed War Against Cancer

Regarding cancer treatment, I sense a general feeling of frustration in the population.  On a personal note, I can tell you that many people in my community are stricken and dying from cancer with little help from the mainstream medical system.  The medical treatments with cytotoxic chemotherapy are cruel and barbaric treatments, serving to prolong agony and suffering for a few additional months.  Friends and family stand by, helplessly, watching their loved one gradually succumb.

This dismal failure of conventional cancer treatment was recently highlighted by the rapid demise of Ed Kennedy with a fatal brain tumor, a glioblastoma.  In spite of the best care available in the US, a high profile personality who had actually crafted health care legislation himself,  suffered the same dismal 6-12 month survival as any one else.

The Time is Ripe for Health Reform

Perhaps Suzanne Somers also correctly reads this public frustration with cancer. and her new book is perfectly timed to take advantage of the changing tide of sentiment.

Suzanne Somers trots out onto the stage three MD’s working outside of the mainstream cancer paradigm with considerable success.  Here they are:

Stanislaw R. Burzynski, M.D., Ph.D

Dr. Burzynski isolated peptides called antineoplastins which have anticancer activity. Results have been impressive for brain tumors, such as the one that killed Ed Kennedy, and another type of cancer called lymphomas.

James W. Forsythe M.D

Dr Forsythe has considerable success treating cancer with a nutritional supplement called Poly-MVA, invented by Merrill Garnett.  This is a non-toxic nutritional supplement that contains palladium, and takes kills cancer cells while it spares normal cells.

Nicholas Gonzalez MD

Dr Gonzalez treats cancer with a protocol developed by William Kelly based on the work of embryologist John Beard called the Trophoblast Theory of Cancer.  Gonzalez uses high dose pancreatic enzymes along with a detailed nutritional supplement program.  Gonzalez has had considerable success with cancer remissions in advanced cases, especially pancreatic cancer.

Hounded by Regulatory Agencies

Rather than hailed has pioneers, all three have been hounded by regulatory agencies and persecuted for ”thinking outside the box”.  Forsythe for example, was set up by a rogue FBI agent who posed as a patient asking for growth hormone.  The case was thrown out of court.  Burzynski battled in court with the FDA for many years ultimately emerging the winner.  Gonzalez also has his brush with the New York State medical board.   He was reprimanded in 1994 and  license placed on probation for “departing from accepted practice”. He eventually resolved the issue and remains fully licensed.
