NHWC Among Top Alternative Cancer Clinics

Natural Horizons has been selected as one of the top alternative cancer treatment clinics through Alternative Cancer Resources, a new online resource dedicated to providing cancer information and solutions beyond standard conventional treatments.  The project is a collaboration between Burton Goldberg and former actress Suzanne Somers. 
 
Mr. Goldberg is a two-time cancer survivor and pioneer in the alternative medicine community.  He is the former publisher of Alternative Medicine Magazine, author of multiple books and an alternative medicine filmmaker.  Suzanne Somers has become a highly recognized spokeswoman for the promise of alternative cancer treatment, following the success of her best-selling book “Knockout” about the alternative cancer industry.  Both are passionate about building broader public awareness for the effectiveness of a range of integrative modalities and treatments, many of which have been around for decades.
 
Alternative Cancer Resources features cancer treatment clinics across the country, like Natural Horizons Wellness Center, that are having tremendous success using integrative treatment modalities for the treatment of all types of cancer.  The website offers a wealth of information on the multiple causes that lead to cancer and the steps that can lead to removal of the disease.  Natural Horizons is honored to be part of a project that promotes our clinic's approach to eliminating cancer from the body:  detoxifying the body, boosting the immune system with vitamins and diet/nutrition, and creating an individual treatment program for each patient utilizing less toxic methods of treatment, including Insulin Potentiation Therapy (IPT).   
 
“There are many successful alternatives to conventional care that can remove the root causes of cancer and restore you to health without further poisoning or damaging your body. There are also ways to minimize the side effects of chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery.  The information [on this website] is here to work for you, to empower and inspire you, and to show you ways you might experience a successful outcome in reversing cancer,” Mr. Goldberg states on Alternative Cancer Resources. 
 
Patients can use the website to search for solutions by specific clinic, region, doctor or treatment modality.   Learn more at www.alternativecancerresources.com and click here to view Natural Horizons’ profile.

Insulin Potentiation Therapy (IPT) for Cancer

The most commonly used cancer treatments are chemotherapy, radiation and surgery. There are additional treatment options such as low-dose chemotherapy that offer a targeted approach to eliminating cancer in the body while simultaneously building up the immune system.  Low-dose chemotherapy can be used to treat patients with all types of cancer including but not limited to colon cancer, breast cancer, pancreatic cancer, ovarian cancer, prostate cancer, and lymphoma.
 
The dynamics of low-dose chemotherapy are really quite simple.  Cancer cells need glucose to burn for energy. With few exceptions, all cells require insulin to allow glucose to enter the cell. Since cancer cells are totally dependent on glucose as their only energy source, they have many more insulin receptors on their cell membranes which allow the glucose to enter the cell for consumption. In fact, cancer cells have anywhere from 6-15 times the number of insulin receptors as normal cells, giving them a real competitive advantage in swallowing up fuel.
 
But insulin has other effects as well. In addition to insulin opening up the path (the membrane) for the glucose to enter the cell, it also makes the cell membrane more permeable to other substances including chemotherapy drugs. Because insulin receptors are so concentrated on cancer cells, increasing the insulin in the cancer patients’ body opens up the cancer cells.  When this happens, chemotherapy can selectively target the cancer cells without affecting the normal cells, and more of the drugs will enter the cancer cells in the presence of insulin. In fact, a study in the early 1990s showed that the chemotherapy drug methotrexate had the ability to kill breast cancer cells at a rate 10,000 times greater when the cells were prepared with insulin!
 
In addition, insulin has properties that encourage the cancer cells to enter a specific phase of DNA synthesis and cell division where cells become most vulnerable. More of the chemotherapy is able to enter the cell during this vulnerable time in the cell cycle.  This means that smaller quantities of chemotherapy drugs are needed to achieve effectiveness. Anywhere from 5-10% of the standard dose of most chemotherapy drugs can be effective for the patient with fewer of the standard side effects from the chemotherapy.
 
The results using this treatment regimen are dependent upon many factors. The success of this protocol varies with each patient, but in most cases the standard side effects from chemotherapy can be minimized or eliminated with lose-dose chemotherapy treatment.

Curried Egg Salad
Serves 2

Egg salad is a simple and nutritious solution for a healthy lunch or easy snack. Eggs are full of healthy fat, protein and amino acids.  This egg salad recipe contains curry and pistachios to give it a little zing.

Ingredients:
4 eggs;
1/4 cup mayonnaise;
1/2 teaspoon curry powder;
2 tablespoons chopped pistachios;
Salt and black pepper, to taste
3 ounces mixed green salad
4 cherry tomatoes
2-3 cucumber slices
1 stalk sliced celery

Directions:
Place eggs in a pot large enough to hold them all in a single layer. Cover by 3 inches of cold water and place on the stovetop over high heat. Once the water starts simmering briskly, reduce heat and cook eggs at a gentle simmer for 12 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer eggs to a bowl of ice-cold water. Let cool for 5 or 10 minutes, then peel.
In a medium mixing bowl, mash eggs with the back of a fork. Combine mayonnaise, curry and pistachios in a small mixing bowl. Add mayonnaise mixture to eggs and combine well. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.  Spoon onto mixed green salad and garnish with cherry tomato, cucumber and celery.
