An Alternative View for Cancer Sufferers
by Kirsty Tuxford

Part time Costa Blanca resident, Tom Malley, has a vested interest in cancer research; having fought and beaten the disease, he has spent countless hours investigating the myriad of treatments available. Tom has scoured many scientific reports and newspaper articles with a view to finding out what cancer sufferers can do to help themselves. He has come up with some interesting information that he wishes to share. This two- part article will take a glimpse into these findings.

"I'm not telling people what to do," says Tom. "I just want them to read the information I have and make up their own minds."

Naturally anyone affected by cancer will turn to their doctor for help. However, in addition to the expertise that can be provided by those in the medical profession, there are many 'alternative' and more natural ways to help your body beat cancer. Tom's research has led him to uncover countless scientific reports and personal accounts of natural remedies that are believed to have significantly facilitated the recovery from cancer in many people.

"In 1900, cancer rates in Europe were 1 in 80. Today, they are 1 in 3 and with prostate cancer, I became one of those statistics. It is estimated that unless we do something, the rate will become 1 in 2 by the year 2010!" he explains.

Tom goes on to say how the world around us is becoming more polluted as our diet includes more chemicals, and modern farming techniques wipe out many valuable minerals. Add to this the number of chemicals used in the home, and some would say we are living in a 'toxic soup'.

Upon being diagnosed with cancer, Tom recalls, "Being a 'belt and braces' sort of person I had orthodox treatment for which I was very grateful. I also looked at how I could support my body's nutrition, reduce free radical exposure in my home and protect my body against the free radicals that I couldn't avoid. In addition, I cut out meat and dairy products from my diet and sourced organic produce where possible."

The eradication of dairy products from the diet has been documented by cancer sufferer Jane Plant in her book 'Your Life in Your Hands'. Having developed breast cancer five times, Jane, who is a scientist, began to research what could be causing its recurrence. In her book she says, "The first clue to understanding what was promoting my breast cancer came when my husband Peter, who was also a scientist, arrived back from working in China." After some discussion about life in China, it came to Jane's attention that the women in China don't suffer from breast cancer in the vast numbers that women in Europe do. Jane says, "The disease was virtually non-existent throughout the whole country. Only 1 in 10,000 women in China will die from it."

Jane's research painstakingly eradicated all the extraneous variables that could be casual factors in the different rates of cancer between the European and Chinese cultures. Her breakthrough came when she realised, 'the Chinese don't eat dairy produce!'

Throughout the world statistics show that 70% of the population are unable to digest the sugar in milk. This is diagnosed as 'lactose intolerance' and viewed as a deficiency in the body. The Chinese population on the whole are 'intolerant' leading them to dismiss dairy as a non-viable food source. Perhaps the body that cannot tolerate dairy is trying to tell us something? Jane eradicated dairy, and within six weeks her cancerous lump (that had stubbornly remained the same size throughout chemotherapy) - had completely disappeared.

During my chat with Tom, he offered me some apricot kernels; the small almond-like parts that are found inside the stone of an apricot. As I began to chew, I remarked upon the bitter taste.

"That'll be the cyanide!" said Tom. To say I was horrified would be an understatement.

However, I am still here and suffered no adverse effects. Why? To explain briefly, there are several reports by scientists that show apricot kernels (and other foods) to contain vitamin B17. Part of its make-up is cyanide, although in a small enough quantity not to be deadly - thank Goodness. B17, in combination with other vitamins and minerals is thought to be an excellent way to break down cancerous cells in the body. If taken and there are no cancerous cells present it simply flushes through the system. Dr Harold Manner and Ernst T Krebs are among the many scientists who believed in the curative powers of B17. Tom Malley himself swears by the kernels, and buys them in from a remote Himalayan village where they are grown organically. Indeed, further studies show that the tribes who live in the mountains not only live to a ripe old age but also that they have no history of cancer.
