A Natural Remedy For Healing Breast Tumors

Breast are sacred.  They are positioned over the heart symbolizing unconditional love.  They are soft and nurturing; their roundness symbolizes the circle of life. 
 
Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer for women.   The National Beast Cancer Foundation, Inc., estimates that one in eight women in the U.S. will be diagnosed with breast cancer; it is the second leading cause of cancer in women. 
 
Women, we are the life givers and the healers.  It seems only natural to turn to the Earth Mother for assistance when battling this dis-ease. 
 
(The following information came from Humbart Santillo BS, MH, in his book Natural Healing With Herbs – The First American System of Herbology, 1991)


Keep the bowls clean with herbal laxatives or enemas.  Three to seven day fast can be used, alternating with a vegetarian diet.  Do not use dairy products, fried foods, heavy starches or high protein foods.  Keep the diet simple and use cleansing foods.

INTERNAL: Chaparral tablets are excellent- two tablets four times daily.  Sassafras, red clover, chickweed and burdock root are good teas to drink to cleanse the blood along with the chosen formula.
 
Homeopathic silica is excellent for all tumors and swelling caused from a toxic lymphatic system.  Silica is found in plants, usually in the stalks or grains or grasses.  Hepar. sulph. 4x should be used first. to encourage the elimination of pus.  Silica will promote the healing process.  It is excellent for all suppurations (discharge of pus).  Take five tablets of 12x five times daily.
 
EXTERNAL:  Use hot and cold water packs over the tumor to bring circulation to the breast.  Exercise to maintain good circulation.  Skin brush daily.
 
Prickly pear cactus (optunia species) makes an excellent poultice for sore breast.  Slash the leaf and apply the pulp over the swelling.
 
Combine clay and macerated cabbage leaves and mix together with powdered flaxseed and water.  Make a thin paste, add a pinch of cayenne and spread on a linen and apply.  This can stay on for several hours.
 
Make a drawing, soothing poultice using equal parts of powdered plantain leaves, comfrey leaves, lobelia.  Mix these leaves with wheat germ and castor oil to a thick consistency.  Spread it ¼ inch thick on a linen and apply to the tumor.  Keep this on from four to six hours daily. 
 
Ichthammol and vegetable glycerin mixed together in equal parts as a poultice is very good for all tumors.  Ichthammol is found in drug stores.
 
Soak a cloth in castor oil and place inside a bra.  This can be worn during sleep or daily activities.  Poke root is also excellent for this.  Poke root tincture is a powerful lymphatic cleanser for all tumors and swelling.  Take five drops in ½ cup of water three times daily.
 
The Red Clover Combination carried by Nature’s Way Products is similar to Hoxey’s formula which is used for most of his cancer patient.  Take four tablets three times a day.
 
The tumor may get larger at the very beginning of detoxification, simply because there is so much toxic poison being released by the cells.  This is not a time to panic; once the body gets cleaner and the organs can handle the waste elimination, the tumor will shrink.
 
It is important to use a low sodium, high potassium diet so the fluids will not be held up in the tissues. 
 
Chlorophyll enema implants are very important during this therapy.  Use wheatgrass or parsley juice freshly squeezed.  Drink two to four ounces  of liquid chlorophyll juice mixed with water taken straight or with juice (celery or apple) twice daily.
 
St. John’s wort oil or a salve made from this plant applied daily to tumors, swellings, bruises and caked beasts is excellent.  The tincture, ten to fifteen drops three times daily, can be taken internally.
 
It is very important to keep the iodine level of the blood normal for both the thyroid gland and tissues to have proper cell oxidation.  Eat plenty of seaweeds and take kelp or dulse capsules daily.

FIGHTING CANCER

It's not unusual to flip through facebook and find friends who are battling cancer these days, especially along the Gulf Coast  Being a smoker and somewhat of drinker in my early years, I have become acquainted with vitamins and herbs to combat my bad habits and the damage they have had on my body.  I’ve been partaking in natural remedies since 1992, as a preventative to cancer.
 
I’m not a doctor, and I’m not giving medical advice, but if I had cancer, I think I would be willing to try anything to beat the disease.  So today I’m going to share some information from Earl Mindell’s Vitamin Bible.
 
L-glutathoine (GSH) has been called a triple threat anti-aging amino acid.  It’s actually a tripeptide, synthesized from three amino acids – L-cysteine, L-glutamic acid, and glycine, and it has been shown to act as an antioxidant and deactivate free radicals which speed up the aging process.  It is also an anti-tumor agent, a respiratory accelerator in the brain, and has been used to help in the treatment of allergies, cataracts, diabetes, hypoglycemia, and arthritis, as well as helping to prevent harmful side effects of high-dose radiation in chemotherapy and X-rays.  Additionally, it helps protect against the harmful effects of cigarette smoke and alcohol.
 
Chlorella (the emerald algae) has been touted as the perfect whole food.  Aside from being a complete protein and containing all the B vitamins, vitamin C, vitamin E and the major minerals (with zinc and iron in amounts large enough to be considered supplementary), it has been found to improve the immune system, improve digestion, detoxify the body, accelerate healing, protect against radiation, aid in prevention of degenerative diseases, help in treatment of candida albicans, relieve arthritis pain, and because of its nutritional content, aid in the success of numerous weight loss programs.
 
It is available in tablets, powder and water soluble extracts (which contain the highest concentrations of Chlorella Growth Factor [CGF]).  Be aware, though, that although chlorella products are widely available, they differ depending on the particular strain of chlorella used.
 
The average dosage is:  5-8 tablets 3 times daily.  I’d suggest starting with only 1 tablet 3 times daily and working up, just to make sure you have no allergic reactions.  Possible adverse reactions include:  gas, bloating, bowel irregularity, nausea, green stools and mild skin breakouts of eczema.  (These reactions, unless severe, are not unusual and should clear up in a few days.  If not, discontinue supplementation and consult a nutritionally oriented doctor.  See section 293.)
 
Dr. David Steenblock, author of Chlorella, Natural Medicinal Algae, has found that for detoxification purposes, chlorella is best taken on an empty stomach; however, because it is a food, it can be taken with other foods as well as medications.
 
Cystine is the stable form of the sulfur-containing amino acid cysteine (an important anti-aging nutrient).  The body readily converts one into the other as needed, and the two forms can be considered as a single amino acid in metabolism.  When cystine is metabolized, it yields sulfuric acid, which reacts with other substances to help detoxify the system.
 
Sulfur-containing amino acids particularly cystine and methionine, have been shown to be effective protectors against copper toxicity.  (An excessive accumulation of copper in humans is a sign of Wilson’s disease.)  Cystine/Cysteine can also help “tie up” and protect the body from other harmful metals as well as destructive free radicals that are formed by smoking and drinking.  A cysteine supplement (L-cystine) taken daily with vitamin C (three times as much vitamin C as cysteine) is the regimen that’s been suggested for smokers and alcohol drinkers.  (Supplements need not be taken on an empty stomach.)  Recent research also indicates that therapeutic doses of cysteine can offer an important degree of protection against X-ray and nuclear radiation.
 
CAUTION:  Large doses of cysteine/cystine, vitamins C and B1 are not recommended for anyone with diabetes mellitus, and should only be undertaken on the advise of a physician.  (The combination of these nutrients could negate insulin effectiveness.)
 
Chaparral is one of nature’s best antibiotics used both internally and externally.  It is good for treating bacterial, viral and parasitic infections.  It is also an excellent addition to formulas in the treatment of kidney and bladder infections.
 
As a fomentation it is applied topically for skin diseases, herpes, scabies, eczema and arthritic pains.  It contains an anti-tumor substance called NDGA (nordihydroguararetic acid) which has anti-cancer properties.  It is very bitter and is usually mixed with other herbs or taken in tincture form.  I do know of several people who drink it as a tea.  Chaparral is a good addition to hair rinses.
 
Garlic has several outstanding characteristics.  It is used for all lung and respiratory ailments.  Use garlic as a tea or add it to syrups for coughs, colds, tuberculosis, fevers and blood diseases.  It is good to use the tea as an enema for worms and bowel infections.  Garlic is excellent for both high and low blood pressure, infections, stomach problems, indigestion and nervous headaches.
 
The best preparation is to use the fresh extract oil or eat the raw cloves.
 
Parsley root or leaves is excellent for difficult urination, dropsy, jaundice, stones and obstructions of the liver and spleen.  Combined with Echinacea, plantain and marshmallow root it is a good remedy for kidney and bladder infections.  The fresh juice of the leaves (2 ounces daily in apple juice) is an excellent blood tonic and remedy for anemia.  Use the fresh leaves in salads.  The root is excellent for jaundice.  The seeds contain apiol, which is considered safe and effective emmenagogue and is used in amenorrhea and dysmenorrhea.  Combine with buchu, cramp bark and black haw for female problems.  The high chlorophyll content of the leaves makes this herb an excellent treatment for cancer.  Drink the fresh juice daily.
 
Red Clover is an excellent blood purifier when used alone or in combination with yellow dock, dandelion root, sassafras or other blood purifiers.  It is a powerful remedy for cancerous growth.  It is soothing to the nerves and is good for whooping cough and stomach problems.  Red clover can be used in salves for all skin afflictions.
 
Yellow Dock is an astringent blood purifier.  It will tone up the entire system and is good for diseases such as skin infections, tumors, liver and gall bladder problems, ulcers and skin itch.  It acts as a laxative because it stimulates the flow of bile.  It makes an excellent salve for itchy skin diseases and swelling of glands or otherwise.
 
Yellow dock is high in iron and is used in the treatment of anemia and will nourish the spleen.  Use in formulas when treating jaundice and hepatitis.  Combine in teas and salve with Echinacea, burdock root and sarsaparilla.
 
Echinacea is one of the best blood cleansers and seems to be tolerated in large amounts.  It is good for blood poisoning, carbuncles, all pus diseases, abscesses of the teeth, gangrene, all lymph swellings, snake and spider bites.
 
And of course meditation is always a great way to heal.  Below is a healing meditation I found on youtube.  If you do not like this meditation, please search for one on youtube that you feel comfortable with.
