This article is not intended as medical advice. I am simply sharing information gathered from a number of other published sources.
Some cancer patients have refused chemotherapy and radiation. Instead, they've fought their disease with natural remedies.
They're still alive to talk about it.
A growing number of "chemo-free survivors" have become Internet crusaders, helping others navigate the often uncharted maze of alternative medicine.
Kelley Eidem is one. He was covered with big brown blotches that suddenly appeared on his skin. He realized it was serious. He took a pregnancy test and it was positive.
Since he wasn't pregnant, Eidem, a medical writer, knew, without a doubt, he had cancer. People with cancer and pregnant women both produce human chorionic gonaditropin (HCGH). A person with cancer will get a false positive result if the cancer is advanced enough, or if the test is sensitive enough to detect HCGH.
Not Curable with Conventional Medicine
As the tumors had spread throughout his body, Eldem, if he had gone to a doctor, would have been diagnosed with Stage IV cancer, which is considered terminal.
Eidem didn't have a biopsy, because, as he explains, he believed this could disrupt the cancer and cause it to spread.
He also didn't panic. Years earlier, he had written a biography about cancer researcher named Emanual Revici, M.D., who developed a successful method of treating, and often curing, even the most desperate cases.
Eidem knew what to do. First, he took cod liver oil to correct an imbalance. His body was too acidic, and he needed to raise his ph level. What makes Dr. Revici's work so unique, as Eidem has written in his book, The Doctor Who Cures Cancer, is that Dr. Revici found that cancer patients suffer from one of two imbalances. Their metabolism has become either too acidic or too alkaline.
Correcting the Acid/Alkaline Imbalance
Correcting this, by ingesting proper oils, can often restore health, and make the cancer disappear, claims Eidem.Eidem supercharged his treatment. He took cod liver oil to put his body into a more alkaline state. He also ate daily sandwiches of sprouted bread filled with garlic, habanero peppers and butter. This is something he gleaned from Dr. Richard Schulze, an herbalist and author who hs developed a program called "The Incurables."
Within days the blotches started to fade. Eidem stopped the sandwiches and the blotches returned. He returned to his protocol for a few more days and they went away for good.Now, 14 years later, Eidem moderates a popular website where he answers questions about Dr. Revici's work, which turns a bit of alternative medical dogma upside down.
The standard advice is to juice and eat a lot of raw vegetables in order to combat acidity and raise one's alkaline level. That's good only if someone is too acidic to begin with,according to Dr. Revici's findings.
If, however, someone suffers the reverse condition, alkalosis, such a diet will make their cancer grow. What they need is balance. In this case, eating hard-boiled eggs or other acid-forming foods is a much better choice.
