July 27, 2023 general

In last week’s blog, I discussed my suggested guidelines for solving health problems more effectively using the internet. I got that idea when someone sent me a link to an article about a very unusual alleged cancer cure. Before I addressed that topic, I thought I should start with a general foundation. I have seen many odd alternative ideas for treating cancer and so I understandably started out skeptical of this one. But when I noticed that the story was reported by Bill Sardi, I took a second look because I have so much respect for his work. Bill was very often ahead of the curve. As the report goes, Joe Tippens who was in very grave danger from ‘small cell’ lung cancer followed the advice of a veterinarian to take an anti-worming dog medication. Joe tried it because there had been exciting reports about the med and because he was desperate. A quote from that article: “His insurance company spent $1.2 million before Tippens switched to a $5 a week medicine that saved his life.  Daily vitamins and CBD oil were also an essential part of his curative regimen.  Here’s the video report.”

Now very curious, I searched on pubmed.gov to see if the medicine (fenbendazole) was being used against cancer and was surprised to get 61 scientific articles. The research covered many types of cancer and a surprising number had reached positive conclusions. Some did not show benefit, but then I didn’t see any that had used the whole protocol which included Vitamin E complex (tocotrienols, tocopherols), Curcumin (turmeric extract 600 mg/day) and CBD oil. Also saw very little that was negative (except when given to rats in extraordinary amounts. Also, use of this medicine for cancer apparently really took off in Korea, so there were several papers clucking about the brazenness of people daring to go around orthodoxy!…never mind if they were cured.)

Why haven’t there been a ton of studies and big newspaper headlines about this breakthrough? The answer is money. I addressed that aspect of research last week. There is no such thing as a cancer drug that is too expensive, but too cheap ($5) is a problem. Also, the patent on fenbendazole probably has expired meaning any company can make it. I recommend reading the whole Bill Sardi article on this cure because it goes into great detail about the impact of promoting a cheap cure like this would have not only on the business of cancer, but also the whole darn economy. The title of that fascinating article is “​A Cancer Cure Has Gotten Out of Control.” Also, an article in the HBN Library has a lot of useful cancer information.

My personal bottom line: If I had cancer, I would probably try fenbendazole and also another cure Sardi wrote about on HBN and on this website as well as upping intake of any nutrients that I know support immune function. I would listen patiently to the oncologist, paying special attention to any metrics so that I could track my progress. I hope I’d have the courage to inform the oncologist of everything I was doing. However, I’d be bracing for him or her to likely be royally p***ed off that I would dare fret about the significant dangers of conventional treatment…and worse yet, use non-pharmaceutical “nonsense”. I would not automatically refuse all conventional methods, but neither would I robotically do everything I was told. I like to think I would not panic and could rationally pick and choose whatever had the best evidence. But before such a dreaded day, I will work as best I can on prevention and prayer.
