Cancer - The Missing Point

Cancer - The Missing Point
By Dr. Randy Wysong

If one were to judge by television advertising and news
reports, it would 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 disease early.
Really. That also misses the point. Is it “prevention” if you
call 911 when you come home 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 a lack of one
of the new drugs? Is the cause of really unknown,
requiring endless research? 

First, let me put to rest the propaganda that the war is being
won. Since 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 will 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 will overtake heart disease as the number one killer. 

Decades ago, early in the war, there were some dramatic
successes such as with Hodgkin's disease and some forms of
childhood leukemia. There can be little doubt that debunking
(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) added to life, not in
cures. The placebo effect is by and large ignored. (People
getting a sugar pill placebo in studies have been known
to lose their hair and some actually cure themselves by simply
thinking they will be cured.) A percentage of people can
experience remissions spontaneously and from simple lifestyle
adjustments, but the therapy is always credited 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.
Talbot M. 1991. The Holographic Universe. New York. Harper
Collins Publishers. Townsend Letter, 2004; 251:32-3.) 

Statistics can always be massaged to create the result desired.
This practice is rampant in 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
never pan out. For-profit drug companies and National Cancer
Institute grant-based research ignore metastases (the spreading
cells of 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 costs $2,400
per week. Avastin™, another costly chemotherapeutic, by the best
calculation, extended the lives of 400 colorectal patients by
4.7 months. Tamoxifin™ is proven to be effective in decreasing
breast cancer. Risk is decreased by about 15% but what is not
equally heralded is the fact that it increased the risk of
endometrial uterine by about 15%. (Patient Information:
Nolvadex, Zeneca Pharmaceuticals) 

Are such results worth the financial devastation and miserable
life that chemotherapy, radiation and surgery impose? Is that
the way to spend one's remaining days? If such therapy does add
a couple of months, are those couple of months really worth the
poking, prodding, pain, unrelenting nausea, disfiguring,
destruction of the immune system and increased susceptibility to
other diseases? "Yes" would be a hard answer to justify. 

In the face of a diagnosis most people just throw up
their hands in terror and surrender to the conventional cancer
therapy death process. The feeling is that something must be
done, and, since "doctors know best," one must begin the "fight"
by following the advice of the doctor. But fighting does not
mean surrendering to the will of another person who has their
own personal agenda and narrowed field of view dictated

by the
club they belong to. That misses the point. You must do
something. 

Here's the on-point best approach:

1. Prevention means adjusting your life right now so that you
are living in tune with your design. 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
lifestyle you are genetically designed for. The proper healthy
preventive living context is encapsulated in the Wysong Optimal
Health Program™.

2. If you get cancer, don't panic. First thing is follow #1
advice. Learn. Gather as much 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 about what has happened in your life that has caused
the disease. It is caused, it does not just happen. Correct your
life.

4. You take control of your own body and you make 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 mindset to
speed the disease along.

5. Think long and hard before submitting to unproven cancer
therapies. If the doctor cannot prove effectiveness (at least
prove that you will be better off with the therapy 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 good things in life are hard. In our modern world, good
health takes effort and attention. Preventing and reversing
disease also takes effort – your effort. Begin today to take
charge of your health and be the best you can be. Most chronic
degenerative diseases have long latency periods, the time
between when the disease begins and it manifests in overt
symptoms. Most everyone reading this has such disease brewing
within at this very moment. So take advantage of the window of
opportunity and give your body a chance by living the life you
were designed to live. That will not only prevent disease from
gaining a foothold, but reverse disease that is incubating
within.
