All cancer therapy should include focus on eliminating causative factors and directly fighting tumors-especially in latter-stage cancers. Furthermore, therapies should differ depending upon the type and causative agent(s) of the cancer.

Since cancer is a disease with multiple initiating factors, optimal therapy practices utilize a multi-pronged approach. Alternative cancer treatment approaches attempt where possible, to zero in on eliminating the significant underlying causes of cancer so that the body can heal itself.

Because the body's immune system fights off and helps reverse many early cancer formations, all therapies need to address strengthening of the immune system to help the body fight any cancer cells that are formed every day.

What is Cancer?

Cancer begins when the normal cycle of cell birth, creation, growth and death becomes disrupted. The genetic material within cells that controls this cycle is altered, which causes those cells to begin reproducing uncontrollably. They also form a parasitic relationship with the body by diverting food and energy from non-cancerous cells while developing their own blood supply.

The area of cancerous cell growth becomes a tumor that creates toxins that poison the body and eventually spread cancer cells to other parts of the body (metastasis).

Therapeutic intervention becomes necessary to eliminate the tumor and slow or prevent the progression of the disease.

The Problem Worsens

Cancer rates, especially in the industrialized countries of the world, are increasing. In the United States, about one in three people eventually contract cancer.

The Five Categories of Cancer

Cancers are categorized according to the tissue in which they originate:

  1. Sarcomas - cancers of the connective tissue, muscle, bone and lymph. Although rare they are very deadly.
  2. Myelomas - cancers of the plasma cells in the bones.
  3. Leukemias - cancers that begin in the bone marrow, spleen and lymph nodes.
  4. Carcinomas - cancers beginning in tissues lining organs or tissues. These include lung, prostate, skin, breast and gastrointestinal cancers.
  5. Lymphomas - cancers within the lymph system such as Hodgkins and non Hodgkins lymphomas.

Prevalent Types of Cancer

Alternative Cancer Treatments Target Cancer Initiators & Promoters

Initiators of cancer can include environmental toxins, internal toxins, heavy metals in the oral cavity, nutritional factors, viruses, radiation and hormones. These initiators are thought to alter cell DNA, thereby causing alteration of the cell-reproduction process.

Once the cell reproduction process is altered, other factors indirectly allow these cancers to proliferate unchecked. Factors that promote this proliferation of cancer throughout the body include heavy metals, low dietary fiber, immune system suppressors and acidic tissue.

Factors that either initiate or promote cancer formation and growth include:

  • Emotional stress
  • Genetics
  • Low oxygenation of tissues
  • Viruses
  • Pleomorphism - change of existing healthier microbes to deadlier more pathologic types of microbes due to an unhealthy tissue environment.
  • Radiation
  • Environmental chemicals
  • Hormones - especially estrogen
  • Smoking
  • Diet and nutrition - unhealthy sugars and processed foods
  • Magnetic fields - high tension electrical wires
  • Dental materials - mercury, nickel, aluminum and fluoride

When taking all of these factors into account, an alternative cancer treatment center that considers the entire body often becomes a viable option.
