Ivermectin Isn’t the First Cancer Cure Pushed by Alternative Medicine Providers
The Real Truth about Alternative Medicine
You probably don’t remember the first cancer cure that was pushed by alternative medicine providers, do you?
Here’s a hint - it wasn’t ivermectin!
Ivermectin Isn’t the First Cancer Cure Pushed by Alternative Medicine Providers
Long before anti-vaccine influencers and other alternative medicine providers began pushing ivermectin as a cure for turbo cancer, they were promoting many other natural cancer cures.
Have you heard of folks using the Gerson therapy (strict diet, coffee enemas, and supplements) as a cancer cure?
“The Gerson clinics make all sorts of claims about euphoric patients returning home, cured of their disease. But no follow-up is ever carried out. And whenever independent researchers have tracked Gerson patients, they have found that most had succumbed to cancer within five years of having been “cured” of the disease.”
What is Gerson therapy?
What about Hoxsey Therapy (restrictive diet and herbal tonics)?
Or Krebiozen, metabolic enzyme therapy, laetrile, megadoses of vitamin C, the Budwig diet (flaxseed oil mixed with cottage cheese and low-fat milk), shark cartilage (sharks do get cancer!), Burzynski antineoplaston therapy, NORI protocol, FitScript, black salve, German New Medicine, or cannabis oil?
Have you heard of all the people who have died because they skipped or delayed getting their cancer treated as they pursued these kinds of alternative treatments?
From Steve Jobs, Steve McQueen (died after being treated at a clinic in Mexico with hoax cancer treatments), Andy Kaufman (went to a psychic surgeon in the Philippines), and Coretta Scott King (died while being treated for ovarian cancer at a holistic clinic in Mexico) to many more people who only became famous for this choice, the victims include:
Kim Tinkham - was influenced by Oprah recommended The Secret to skip chemotherapy and died following ‘The pH Miracle’ regimen.
Sharyn Ainscough - died while using the Gerson protocol for her breast cancer
Jessica Ainscough - like her mother, she died while using Gerson therapy for her epithelioid sarcoma
Ananda Lewis - a former MTV VJ who had refused to get a mammogram for years because she was afraid of the radiation, she tried alternative treatments, including high dose vitamin C, when diagnosed with stage III breast cancer. Tragically, she died as it progressed to stage IV.
Paloma Shemirani - was only 23 years old when she died with non-Hodgkin lymphoma because she skipped chemotherapy
Makayla Sault - was only 11 when her parents stopped her chemotherapy for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) to try traditional indigenous medicine and other alternatives instead. She died soon after.
Corissa Macklin-Rice - had terminal cancer because she rejected conventional treatments in favor of the Gerson protocol and then went to Peru to be treated by a Shaman with frog poison and plant-based hallucinogenic treatments. She died while being treated at Amaru Spirit natural medicine and holistic healing center in the heart of the Amazon rainforest.
Chad Green - was only 3 years old when he died after his parents stopped his chemotherapy for acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) and fled to Tijuana, Mexico so that they could treat his cancer with laetrile.
Josia Cotto - a 6-year-old with an inopperable brain tumor who had been getting chemotherapy and radiation, but died shortly after being treated by Stanislaw Burzynski.
Haydn Owen Jones - while being treated for multiple myeloma, he died of multiple organ failure after he took a herbalist’s remedy that included mistletoe
Laura Hymas - was treated by Stanislaw Burzynski. She died, after being touted as a success story, although her brain tumor was said to be untreatable in the UK.
Helen Lawson - was treated with black salve by Dennis Wayne Jensen for her ovarian cancer. She died a few weeks later as the black salve had eaten her flesh away…
Katie Britton-Jordan - died with a treatable form of breast cancer and instead sought alternative treatments, focusing on a vegan diet and hyperbaric oxygen therapy. She died.
Thomas Navarro - a 4-year-old whose medulloblastoma was treated with surgery, but his parents refused recommended chemotherapy and radiation. They instead opted for natural treatments in Mexico and then antineoplastons at
Stanislaw Burzynski’s clinic in Houston. He died a few years later.
Margaret Antwi - died while taking an herbal treatment for her melanoma sold by Dr. Christine Daniel.
Sam Ravelle - refused chemotherapy when she was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2012, choosing instead to drink her own urine and alternative cancer therapies. She even promoted Ty and Charlene Bollinger’s Truth About Cancer series. And likely died soon after.
Christina Bedient - a 10-year-old who died after being treated by Stanislaw Burzynski for her brain cancer.
All posts from Sam Ravelle stop in late 2015. And all of her websites disappear at this time too. Mari Lopez - claimed her cancer was cured by a vegan diet, but it didn’t and she died
Sean Walsh - at age 18 years, he was diagnosed with stage 2 Hodgkins Lymphoma, which went into remission with chemotherapy. Unfortunately, it returned a few years later and he opted for treatment at the Northern Baja Gerson Centre in Mexico and a Merseyside homeopathy clinic. He died a few years later.
Elizabeth Ashley King - died at age 12 years with untreated bone cancer. Her parents, Christian Scientists, were charged with child abuse for letting her die.
Kris Ann Lewin - a Christian Science child who died at age 13 years of untreated bone cancer
Justin Barnhart - a two-year-old who died after his parents, members of the Faith Tabernacle Church, failed to seek medical treatment for his Wilms tumor, which has survival rates of over 90%!
Michaela Jakubczyk-Eckert - stopped chemotherapy, opting for alternative treatment for her breast cancer.
Sarah Valentine - opted for a vegan diet to treat her breast cancer. She died a few years later.
Mario Rodríguez - was 21 years old when he died while his leukemia was being treated by José Ramón Llorente, a homeopath.
Valerie… - a 14-year-old in Austria who died after her cancer was treated with ginger tea, vitamin shots, energy healers, hand layers, and shamanic healers. Her parents received a sentence of 13.5 months each, suspended, after her death.
Sylvia Millecam - a popular Dutch actress who died after her breast cancer was treated by Jomanda, a faith healer, and two alternative providers who had convinced her that she didn’t have cancer.
Joseph Hofbauer - a 7-year-old whose parents refused chemotherapy and radiation when he was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s lymphoma, opting for nutritional and metabolic therapy, including injections of laetrile in Jamaica. The case went to court, which allowed the parents to continue alternative treatments. He died in the Bahamas a few years later.
Tamar Jemima Stitt - a 10-year-old with liver cancer whose parents refused chemotherapy and opted for clay wraps and other natural cancer cures in El Salvador after consulting with Alastair Nuttall. She died a few months later.
Oshin Kiszko - a 6-year-old who had surgery for a brain tumor, but his parents refused recommended chemotherapy and radiotherapy. The case went to court, which allowed him to only receive palliative care, and he soon died.
Carissa Gleeson - tried high dose vitamin C and other alternatives to treat her cancer, before finally turning to conventional therapies. She died a few years later.
Cassandra Callender - refused chemotherapy when she was 17 with Hodgkin’s lymphoma, but a court intervened, and she was successfully treated. When a new mass was found in her lung the next year, she opted for alternative treatments with Ty and Charlene Bollinger. By the time she agreed to conventional treatments, it was too late. She died when she was 22 years old, after spending four months in hospice care.
Daniel Hauser - was diagnosed with Stage IIB nodular sclerosing Hodgkin disease when he was 13 years old. His Catholic parents rejected chemotherapy and opted instead for Nemenhah, a Native American healing practice. A court ordered chemotherapy, which he eventually completed, after first fleeing from the state to avoid it. He is now in remission.
Anthony Hauser - Daniel Hauser’s father was diagnosed with leukemia a few years after he went into remission. He opted for treatment with dietary therapies and soon died.
Abraham Cherrix - refused chemotherapy when he was 15 years old for his Hodgkin’s lymphoma, triggering a legal battle in which the court intervened to make sure he continued chemotherapy and radiation. In a settlement, the family agreed to some treatment, including radiation, that didn’t actually cure his cancer. As an adult, he finally accepted chemotherapy and a stem cell transplant, acknowledging that he would have died if the court had not stepped in. He is now in remission at age 35!
Irena Stoynova - she nearly died while trying to treat her non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma with juicing, before finally turning to conventional treatments
These are not stories that you will hear from Ty and Charlene Bollinger or others promoting fake cancer cures.
“In this study, patients who received complementary medicine (CM) were more likely to refuse additional conventional cancer treatment (CCT), and had a higher risk of death. The results suggest that mortality risk associated with CM was mediated by the refusal of CCT.”
Complementary Medicine, Refusal of Conventional Cancer Therapy, and Survival Among Patients With Curable Cancers
Instead, they push anonymous testimonials (or hide their last names…) from people just starting their fake cures, making it nearly impossible to find them later to see what happens to them. Or they don’t mention that they had also used conventional treatments, which is what actually cured their cancer.
“The second independent review of Burzynski came in 1985, again from Canada. This time investigators from the Canadian Bureau of Prescription Drugs reviewed the records of thirty-six patients. Thirty-two had died from cancer without benefit from antineoplastons. Of the four remaining patients, one had died after a slight regression of the tumor; one had died after being stable for a year; and two were still alive at the time of the survey. Of the two who were still alive, one had metastatic lung cancer and the other cervical cancer—neither had been cured.”
Do You Believe in Magic by Paul A. Offit
They tell you that ‘we’ are hiding the cure for cancer and that chemotherapy doesn’t work or will make you worse, while trying to sell you expensive alternatives that definitely won’t work.
Stop listening to them!
Conventional treatments are your best chance of treating and surviving cancer. Get a second opinion if your provider suggests alternative remedies (yoga, massage therapy, healthy eating plans, etc.) and doesn’t make it clear that they are to complement your conventional treatment, not replace it.
