Fort Lauderdale, FL, December 18, 2012 – Author Dr. Raymond Francis has debunked many cancer myths in his career, and now research keeps proving him right in his belief that “the mainstream medical community is taking the wrong approach by believing chemotherapy is the only effective way to treat cancer.”
Dr. Francis covers this and so much more in his remarkable book, Never Fear Cancer Again (Health Communications, Inc.). He insists that health is a choice and that we make ourselves sick by making bad choices but we can also get healthier and stay that way by making good ones. “We can often help ourselves with substances we already have in our home,” says Francis. Adding, “Natural alternatives don’t get the attention they deserve because there is little profit in them for the major drug companies.”
A recent study published in Nature Medicine Journal shows that a team of researchers looking into why cancer cells are so resilient have accidentally stumbled upon a far more important discovery. “The scientists’ findings were completely unexpected; they discovered that chemotherapy actually heavily damages healthy cells and subsequently triggers them to release a protein that sustains and fuels tumor growth,” says Francis.
Peter Nelson of the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle explains: “WNT16B, when secreted, would interact with nearby tumor cells and cause them to grow, invade, and importantly, resist subsequent therapy.”
The team then complimented the statement with a word of their own: “Our results indicate that damage responses in benign cells… may directly contribute to enhanced tumor growth kinetics.
“Meanwhile, dirt cheap substances like turmeric and ginger have consistently been found to effectively shrink tumors and combat the spread of cancer.”
Dr. Francis adds: “These findings and my own are a huge slap in the face to mainstream medical organizations that have been pushing chemotherapy as the only option to cancer patients for years. Conventional medicine views cancer as a thing that needs to be killed or removed, but it is not a thing you can cut out, poison or burn, it is a biological process affecting the entire body.” Adding, “Once you understand the process, you can see how to turn it off -- just like turning off a lamp in your living room!”
Francis is an MIT-trained scientist and an internationally recognized leader in the field of optimal-health maintenance. In addition to being a best-selling author, Francis is the creator of the internationally-presented Beyond Health Seminar, author of the “Pathways to Health” newspaper columns, and has been a guest on more than 1500 radio and television shows.
