5th Biobran Workshop June 9-11, 2017 in Krakow Poland

About the 5th Biobran Workshop June 9-11, 2017 in Krakow, Poland


I am happy to participate in this workshop having been kindly invited to present some of my work and results in the field of cancer, using a protocol in which we include Biobran. In treating cancer patients I focus on 3 main directions that I am going to speak about in my lecture. Of course it is not the first time I have delivered seminars about Biobran, such as one I presented to the University of Vilnius-Faculty of medicine in Budapest as well as one in England. Biobran is a old story since I have been using this excellent compound for over 20 years. My friend Mr. Toshi Uchiyamada is the director of Biobran (DHD Europe) in Europe and through him I became acquainted with many new anticancer agents developed in Japan.

Immunotherapy
Apoptosis
Angiogenesis

These are the 3 main hallmarks of cancer. For instance P53 mutation appears necessary in many types of cancer, where without building blood vessels a tumor can't exist.

Biobran which is a compound made from modified rice bran cultivated on enzymes of shitake mycelia mushroom have some anticancer properties but especially when taken orally the Natural Killer cells are quickly activated that in turn become cytotoxic to cancer cells destroying them via apoptosis. I am most interested, in light of all the reports that lately have been published about Biobran, that it not only increasingly activates most of the immune cells, but when prescribed together with curcumin it work in synergy to increase the ratio BcL2/Bax, and then increases apoptosis resulting in the death of cancer cells.

This is a brief synopsis of what I am going to present in my lecture and I will show some cases of cancer patients treated according to the 3 hallmarks of cancer I am speaking about, showing scans, and a bone scan before and after with some really impressive results. Also if you see the program you'll notice the participation of several progressive Oncologists that will be so happy to meet and discuss this topic, especially my colleague and friend Dr. Joseph Brenner coming from Israel. He directs a clinic of Integrative medicine, having been in the past the Chief of Oncology in a hospital. What is interesting about Dr. Brenner is that he also was himself a victim of cancer and wrote a excellent book, “Living Without Cancer”, a real Bible for Oncologists. Dr. Joseph Brenner is a very modest man who came to Lisbon to meet me to learn some of my work in cancer, which should be the opposite of what most oncologists practice, but it really give me some strength.

Oncologists really need to change their paradigm of treating cancer and about which we will show a slide with a figure of my conception of a new paradigm. Lately we assisted in the international publication of articles in several countries speaking of a new revolution to treat cancer via the immune system, which is not really new for us, but it also shows the field of Oncology is really still searching for some effective treatment. This is what we are doing sine few decades and with Biobran for the past two decades. Too many cancer patients are dying, too many are suffering, too many are under disease recurrence, which emphasizes that Oncologists cannot close the door to other medicines which according to them are unproven and even dangerous. What about chemotherapy?? What about the patients who died not having any results with chemotherapy? Something must be done and anyone interested especially doctors working with cancer, particularly those working with chemotherapy should come to this workshop and meet me along with other colleagues like Dr. Joseph Brenner.

You Don't Have to Die from Cancer

 

A recent article published on March 23, 2017 in a local newspaper in Fresno, Cal. (USA) was about a mom who beat (apparently) cancer while pregnant while undergoing chemotherapy. However after giving birth to twins, a little later she died from heart failure. It is also questionable to me about the risk of taking chemotherapy while pregnant, but this we can discuss some other time. 

This unfortunate 30 year old woman was diagnosed with an aggressive form of cervical cancer during her pregnancy and even after taking as the article said, chemotherapy at Stanford University she later died. Now in my clinic, having been confronted with all types and grades of cancer, we already know that cardiomyopathy (heart failure) is caused by chemotherapy. Therefore there are many reasons to protect patients during chemotherapy along with some supplementation like CoQ10, mostly indicated to protect the heart against the deleterious effects of free radicals such as the hydroxyl radical family which strongly reacts with the heart's mitochondria components and even damages the genome which leads to the death of the patient.

Antioxidant Intake During Chemotherapy

We can speak about the carelessness of the conventional Oncology that denied the use of antioxidants and COQ10 during chemotherapy since according to them it may decrease the effectiveness of chemotherapy. In this particular case can we say that everything was done by oncologists to avoid the heart failure and the death of the mom? While cardiomyopathy or peripheral neuropathy is caused by chemotherapy, which the doctors already know, yet nothing is done about it. One day I found a very interesting lecture online on cancer by a medical doctor. However I was astonished with one slide which said, “After all of what we know the patient is dying!” Not just from the cancer but he gave a list of damage that leads to death from chemotherapy treatment, can you believe this! But most people, patients do not know or have any idea. Some hospitals in Lisbon display posters on the wall in oncology patient waiting room for to warn them against taking dietetic supplementation and antioxidants. Very strange since so far no one has died from taking high doses of antioxidants yet so many people die from the adverse effects of chemotherapy without taking antioxidants. According to my experience CoQ10, Vitamin E, SOD, beta-carotene, Vitamin C, methionine, glutathione, Omega 3, are some of the antioxidants I suggest taking during chemotherapy. During my lifetime of practice (50 years) I was frequently confronted with similar cases of pregnant women diagnosed with cancer but no one died from heart failure.






Conventional Medicine is the Same Everywhere

Now the other problem is also the mistaken belief that only chemotherapy treatment is supposed to cure cancer itself and usually by going either to a Stanford University or to a simple cancer hospital, the results are usually about the same since they is based only upon chemotherapy/radiation. I have had some experience with patients flying to MD Anderson Center in Texas who came back with not much results, the same as those going to Paris to be treated in reputed hospitals, also with no result. People believe that treatment from the Oncology Departments of reputed Cancer Institutes or treatment in an Oncology department of a University will make a difference, but usually not! You have also to ask oneself some questions.

Cancer Patients Must Ask Themselves Some Questions

What more can I do for myself besides chemotherapy? Can I help myself with other treatments? We have to finish with the fictitious story that we see cancer as localized disease but we are otherwise healthy and that chemotherapy alone will destroy it. When I ask some patients coming to me about how chemotherapy kills cancer cells they are unable to answer me. This is not like shooting with a magic bullet that kill something but it is associated with the cell cycle ( Read my previous article, “What is cancer” ). Unfortunately so many people still believe that chemotherapy/radiation is the only solution and refuse to consider any other alternative. How many thousands of patients die as consequence of chemotherapy? I was personally confronted with cancer patients that were not convinced that we could do something for them and had a strong iron-like belief in chemotherapy. This was too sad because they died soon after.

Sometimes you are confronted with an aggressive cancer and in this case such cancer cells are resistant to chemotherapy and invade other organs more quickly. Such cells are just minimally damaged by chemotherapy and continue to divide and get even stronger, where medical protocol becomes useless. In such cases I perform molecular markers testing to see which oncogenes or inhibitors of apoptosis is highly expressed and responsible for the cancer cell resistance. This can be also be related to some activated receptors like the EGFR and HER2 in breast cancer for instance. Survivin is one other inhibitor of apoptosis usually overexpressed in breast and prostate cancer and if highly activated can induce a strong cancer resistance to chemotherapy. I will then target this gene to decrease or totally inhibit it's activity as I have done hundreds of times and then you may expect some better results from chemotherapy. Hyperthermia, Vitamin C, antioxidant enzymes,homeopathic preparations in IV is very efficient together with some chemotherapy and greatly help to kill resistant cancer cells. One of my patients with a second aggressive breast recurrence from a primary cancer diagnosed in 2003, but not treated with me at the beginning but with some other colleague, developed metastasis on the neck and ganglions was in a critical situation. In fact in the spring 2016 she was going back for radiotherapy. As one medical doctor said just for PREVENTION, since she was fine with my treatment. I then told her if you do more radiotherapy you will get worse, but even with her coming to my clinic the decision of medical doctors is like the word of God, but it began to progress exactly like I told her. In January 2017 she came to me with the relapse and the CA.15.5, 239 very high. Well I got mad at her and this time I told her that to try to save her it was best to go to the Integrative Medicine Clinic of my colleague and friend, Dr. Joseph Brenner, a highly regarded Oncologist in Israel, himself a victim of cancer. This time she get really scared as well as her family. She is the mother of a lovely little girls so she really had this responsibility looking over her shoulder. Instead of returning to chemotherapy in Lisbon she accepted this option and would be treated with Hyperthermia, galvanotherapy, I.V. Vitamin C and some of my own remedies while in Israel. After 2months of treatment her tumor markers decreased by 50% and the ganglions on the neck were no longer palpable which is a first positive result, but we need to wait more for more results, but as I had said before she was too confident about the benefit of chemotherapy/radiation but thank God she realized that she had to do something different. 2 disease recurrence are very difficult to treat because you may have cancer stem cells that are very resistant to chemotherapy and the apoptosis channel. Anyhow this was already a 14 years battle and will see if we can win but its difficult to say At least she didn't die from heart failure. Now this is an option for every one.

The disease is not only the concern of doctor that in fact thinks only about protocols but also your own concern as well. Now another interesting example comes to mind while it is not one of my patient but a Naturopath in USA diagnosed few years ago with a breast cancer of 8cm, stage 3. I know her because a few years ago she published a nice book on Iridology and made contact directly with me asking for my contribution in her book. I didn't hear any more news about her until I decided to send her my new book published this year. She was very happy to receive my book but told me that she had to face breast cancer and agreed that she was eating junk food and had too much stress . I have felt since the beginning of my practice that Naturopathy was not only a medicine but a philosophy of life to live better with rules for our patients, but even more for ourselves . Do we believe in what we do and what we teach our patients? However she decided to do something for herself and started a treatment before having a mastectomy (Also wrong in my opinion ) and when coming from surgery a new Scan showed an 8mm tumor only so she could avoid as she way the barbaric surgery. After surgery however she refused as she said to put poison back into her body and so no more chemotherapy/radiation, having her doctors mad at her, as we can well understand. She really changed her diet radically and started a protocol with different vitamins, minerals, Pau d' Arco, Essiac tea, Saga mushroom, insole-3-carbine, proteolytic enzymes, iodine and more. She especially started a new way of life with Music therapy, relaxation, physical exercise and it worked. As a result, even some doctors said maybe the initial tests were wrong since as we know medical doctors are usually uninformed about complementary treatment which according to them has little or no efficacy at all. But here we have a good example of what a person can do when facing a disease like cancer.


Women are Too Confident About What Medicine Can Offer

So we not only have the problem of chemotherapy but also the problem of patients that were as we often say, “Brainwashed” and run to chemotherapy not doing anything to help on their own and they may die as a result. Unfortunately the bad new is that women for instance are more confident than they should be about the advancements in medicine made in treating cancer. I remember a 40 year old woman, a movie actor in Portugal coming to see me with an aggressive breast cancer, who had already been taking chemotherapy for some time and nothing else. Unfortunately It was too late when she came to my clinic, I didn't see her again but one month later I read in the local newspaper a large article about her tragic death not from the disease but from a chemotherapy collapse. Last week I saw in my clinic a 42 year old woman with breast cancer. When she started chemotherapy she had no metastasis but after 6 months of treatment, metastasis had spread to her liver and bones and she was suffering from pain. So I told her what can you now expect from chemotherapy. She answered me that she was afraid to arrest treatment and preferred to continue. We knew that soon these patients would enter into an irreversible phase but this was her mind. But why let her die without fighting her disease?

International Workshop Biobran and Cancer-Krakow, Poland 2017

This coming Jun9/12, I will be presenting a paper at the 5thInternational Biobran workshop in Krakow, Poland together with other important figures such as Dr. Joseph Brenner Oncologist, Dr. Handgretinger, Professor of Hematology and Oncology and Professor Hajto, Specialist in Immunology, along with more experts. We will show some clinical cases, including some with advanced metastasis cancer that were supposed to be soon fatal but so far with a 6 year extension /survival (and those taking chemotherapy as well), along with other cases of cancer recurrence with quickly spreading metastasis during chemotherapy regimen, but afterwards with a significantly decrease of local large metastasis after coupling chemotherapy with my treatment, quite visible on Scan. I remember the case of my wife's cousin diagnosed with a colon cancer and even while he knew me he just accepted conventional medicine, surgery and chemotherapy.

Six months later his son is diagnosed with an aggressive lymphoma and went to take chemotherapy as well, also not coming to me for other treatment. He was getting worse and after talking to him about doing something with me he just answered that he was waiting for a new “Miraculous” treatment coming from USA. Of course he died before his father which also was getting worse with chemotherapy and really felt in a very bad way. So my wife told me she asked him to consider dropping chemotherapy for some time and be treated by me. But he answered, “This was not my decision but that of my doctor”. One month before he died he finally came to my clinic but it was too late. 10 years later his grand daughter was diagnosed with an aggressive breast cancer and ran to hospital for chemotherapy refusing my help, so of course she died. This tragedy is just to show that our life can also rest in our own hands and not only in those of the medical doctor. We have to realize that if we have a cancer we may have done something wrong in our life, where it is up to us to correct it and to choose a better direction.

So again you don't have to die from cancer if you really choose to do something more for yourself. Of course we cannot always win but we can delay, we can expect better result by joining the 2 medicines and minimizing the side effects. More especially and definitely we have to change the way we eat, the way we live, the way we think and have more power and self confidence in ourselves. Remember that the autonomic nervous system and the immune system are cross-talking meaning they are both related. So yes relaxation and meditation are probably very positive. Fear doesn't help either, nor anxiety so just try to take positive actions and of course if necessary some supplementation to strengthen the nervous system. Helping the psyche may really be beneficial as well. We are doing this in my clinic but psychology and helping the patient is also a important part of the time I spend with my cancer patients. However we may have also some bad experience with patients diagnosed with bad cancers coming to me but apparently with an agitated state of mind that makes them angry, aggressive and unable to make the good decision.

Lately I had a very bad experience with one couple, where the wife was diagnosed with one of the worst cases of nasopharyngeal cancer, already with an expansion of metastases in the neck and little hope from chemotherapy as she already had said. The husband was quite aggressive and the patient was not very open and emotionally conflicted even just from facing such a cancer where no answer remained from conventional medicine. It had come to such a complicated discussion with her husband that I was obliged to tell them that if they were not satisfied with my work, my 50 years of experience, my reputation and as they could see with several cancer patients in the waiting room, most of them already in treatments with excellent results, then the best choice was to walk out of my office and nothing more. This is what they done and it really upset me since I know this women was condemned to death but unable to realize that she had no solution. But yes this is a very difficult cancer and she would need all the help possible to start fighting that could go on for months or possibly years but as we can also realize the human mind is sometimes difficult to understand. Since you have to be prepared to understand the disease and make an in informed decision which was not the case of this patient. “You don't have to die”, means you can do something different for yourself outside of conventional medicine, but unfortunately you will because if your mind is blocked up with negative emotion, you can easily make the wrong decision.



Oncology is Still Denied the Value of Complementary Therapy

So it is interesting to ask one question and particularly patients should ask this of themselves. Why deny asking this especially when you have the evidence in front of your eyes ! The life of the patient is our main interest. Either we are or we are not an Oncologist or we may using some as they say unproven therapy, but that can save the patient's life. Cancer treatment is not the monopoly anymore of Oncology since we are in a new Era where we are discovering new theories, new mechanisms of cancer and new non-toxic treatments but simply the system does not accept it for reasons that some people have started to understand. The International conventional medicine for reason of prestige cannot accept other way to treat cancer and therefore the life of patients do not enter in their consideration. Outside of their protocols developed at higher levels, whether efficient or not the Oncologist is totally looked up to by patients, and needs to open his/her mind to something different.

Recently a new article published in May 2017 in the serious French magazine SCIENCE and Avenir under the tittle New Anticancer strategy to attack cancer via the metabolic pathway opened the door to a new paradigm to understand and treat cancer by reactivation of the mitochondria function. Other incredible news coming from the Sloan Kettering Cancer Institute that suppose now to treat differently cancer with a revolutionary method which is: The immune system which is how I have been treating my patients for the past 35 years. This is what Biobran does to activate Natural Killer cells that kill cancer cells. We have been using Biobran for nearly 25 years and have given seminars about Biobran in different countries even invited at the Faculty of medicine of the University of Vilnius in Lithuania. Secondly Big Pharma controls the whole of medicine, all the medical congresses, the specialized magazines, local newspapers and politicians. This is why chemotherapy remains the cornerstone of cancerology and that cancer patients run to hospital without asking questions. Unfortunately many of them at the end are not improving but get even worse and then they start to seek some other type help, but for many of them it's too late! So if you are diagnosed with a cancer even before going on surgery start to do something to support your body your immune system, activate the tumor suppressor genes, adopt a better diet,detox your body and be prepared for a long fight.

Sometimes we believe that doctors do not tell the truth to patients but between them they know that some cancers are incurable and yet they refuse trying other approaches ! In one medical doctor's conference slide I was astonished to read the following: “The disease might make the patient's life miserable or cause mortality” (About prostate cancer with bone metastasis). Even worse it also read, “Bone metastasis in prostate cancer really means the beginning of the end for the patient”. Incredible! Essentially, what he said was applicable to all cancers, not only prostate cancer, probably breast cancer as well! He further stated on another slide, “Unfortunately we have never cured a single patient with hormone therapy”. He was very honest but then continues to use hormones and denies some other interesting approaches like the ones I had published!

My tip is to take some Mgn3/Biobran to activate your Natural Killer cells and Dendritic cells. Curcumin is not only a powerful antioxidant but target cell's signaling pathways and most of the hallmarks of cancer and works very well in synergy with Biobran,Alpha Lipoic acid,Co-enzyme Q10, resveratrol, Pau d'Arco, melatonin, chorella extract (Sun-Chorella) and Indole-3-carbinol for breast cancer. Enzyme yeast cells (Zell-Oxygen preparation the bed rock of my method) and you read all about in my new book, “Health and Disease Begin in the Colon”. The same can be said about chorella. I also have a chapter on breast cancer and colon cancer but overall it shows also how you can prevent cancer which should be the main concern of people, particularly women. If you read my articles, “The Evidence of Cellular Respiration to Target Cancer” and “Mitochondria and Cancer”, published in 2006 in The Townsend Letter Magazine they actually give the same information but with all the details about what say this article about the New strategy to treat cancer. The article explains that beside chemotherapy some agents that can regenerate or reactivated damaged mitochondria that use glucose as their main fuel to synthesize molecular energy instead of oxygen, but in much less quantity can be one important step.

Some Oncologists Now Use Alpha Lipoic Acid Together with Chemotherapy

Curiously, Dr. Laurent Schwartz, a French Oncologist but with some advanced ideas about how to treat cancer is using some Alpha Lipoic acid together with chemotherapy which is what I suggested above. We ourselves have been using Alpha Lipoic Acid for over 20 years. It works as a strong antioxidant but also ALA works on the cellular level to help producing energy acting as a co-enzyme-a helper of enzyme-in the cell's energy cycle. ALA also appears to have extraordinary ability to prevent damage to the cell at the genetic level and thus important to take during chemotherapy to protect healthy cells. Co-enzyme Q10 works under the same way even very efficient on the respiratory chain of transport to carry electrons with the finally to synthesis ATP production which helps to restore the cellular function and cellular differentiation meaning a cancer cell been much less active and returning to a normal state. While we explained at the beginning of this article Co-enzyme Q10 protects the heart during chemotherapy from any damage done in the mitochondria. Few articles published in the past have shown the evidence that in certain cases of breast cancer larger doses of Co-enzyme Q10 leads to a complete remission but also now Alpha Lipoic Acid. Burt Berkson M.D., Ph. D, wrote an interesting small book , “ The Alpha Lipoic Acid Miracle”, that gives a list of diseases that can be treated with ALA including cancer. So again if you are taking conventional therapies follow also a complementary treatment to not only protect your body from toxic damage but also targeting cancer mechanisms and help the killing of cancer cells together with chemotherapy/radiation. Do not neglect an anticancer diet, the ketogenic diet being popular today and improve your Microbiome or intestinal micro-flora that work to strengthen the immune system increasing the destruction of cancer cells. Find a doctor offering Live Blood Analysis and a Dried Blood test so you may have a better idea about your blood status and oxidative stress level during chemotherapy.

The other day came a 65 year old man was suddenly diagnosed with colon cancer and a liver metastases up to 7 cm, very extensive, and he was supposed to first start chemotherapy. He was very weak and had lost much weight. When doing his LBA we found really only damaged red cells, platelet aggregation, fungal invasion, lipid plaques and this is the way he was going into chemotherapy that would make his case even worse. See my book, “Health and Disease Begin in the Colon”, where I explain and show photos of both tests before and after treatment or as result of chemotherapy damage.
