    Caffeine As A Potential Treatment For Cancer

    Ray has written many times about the anti-cancer properties of substances like caffeine and aspirin, but official research has been lagging behind in explaining how these substances work. A few months ago, I posted another study showing that adenosine antagonism reduces hypoxia in cancer cells...

    It has been known since ancient Greek times that during pregnancy skin color in women changes drastically. Doctors have long suspected that hormones are involved but until now the mechanism was not known. This study shows that estrogen and progesterone are involved in skin color changes...

    Many Officially Diagnosed Cancers Are Not Cancer At All

    While this study is mostly about thyroid "cancer" it actually highlights a problem that Ray has written a lot about - i.e. the manipulation of official diagnostic criteria to skew disease cure rates in favor of modern medicine. Thankfully, the trend seems to be reversing and thyroid "cancer" is...

    Achilles Heel Of Cancer Found - Its Addiction To Fat

    The public propaganda message has always been that cancer cells are addicted to glucose. As a result of that belief, one of the so-called "new wave" therapies in the treatment of cancer is to "starve" the cancer cells of glucose and hope that they die on their own. This usually has disastrous...

    Aspirin Now Officially Recommended For Cancer Prevention

    I was shocked to see this recommendation come from the director of the NCI. While he only mentioned liver and colon cancer, I think this is a huge change attitude in regards to aspirin, and one that should be all over the news. However, given that medicine still does not have a plausible...

    Plant Diet Increases Risk Of Cancer And CVD Due To PUFA

    This article is a little odd but I decided to post it anyways. It basically claims that humans have a mutation that was caused by eating high plant diet and that mutation makes arachidonic acid so dangerous. I don't know if buy the genetics argument, but I do like the fact that the author openly...

    Prolactin As A Causative Agent In Prostate Cancer

    Just wanted to post this, given the almost perfect correlation between prolactin and expression of estrogen "receptors" in tissues. If prolactin is a causative agent in prostate cancer, than the current idea of treating prostate cancer with estrogen is laughable. I also posted a study showing...

    Baking Soda (Sodium Bicarbonate) Studied For Cancer

    If you go to the American Cancer Society website, there is a special section on "quack" treatments for cancer and one of the listed quacks is baking soda. As is usually the case, bashing something publicly does nor prevent big pharma of studying it privately for fun and profit (i.e. see my posts...

    NSAIDs, With The Notable Exception Of Aspirin, Linked To Fatal Kidney Cancer

    Most doctors now routinely recommend ibuprofen, naproxen, acetaminophen, etc instead of aspirin due to some (mostly unfounded) concerns about bleeding caused by by even low-dose aspirin. It has been known for a long time that NSAID (other than aspirin) use increases the risk of heart attacks...

    The Herpes Viruses Are Activates By Stress, And Can Cause Cancer

    Over the last few months, I received at least 20 emails from people questioning Peat's statements that viruses are activated by physical or emotional stress, estrogen, NO, prolactin, etc. Keep in mind that estrogen, NO, and prolactin are all biomarkers of stress themselves. This study explains...

    Niacinamide Fully Prevents Breast Cancer Metastasis

    In yet another winning day (as Trump likes to say) for niacinamide, this study shows that the metastatic process of breast cancer is controlled by the NAD/NADH ratio, and NAD precursors like niacinamide can be effective chemotherapeutic agents. The human equivalent dose was 3g - 3.5g daily for a...

    Patient Surived Metastatic Cancer For 4 Decades, Killed By Chemotherapy

    Ray wrote ones that cancer is best left alone, and that the only reason we are seeing so many deaths and so few survivals from this disease is probably because the medical industry is so keen on cutting, poisoning or burning the tumors. Forum user burtlancast asked a few months ago for a study...
