High dose vitamin C used along side cancer treatment

Therapeutic Effects of High Dose Vitamin C

  • High Dose Vitamin C  has an anti-viral, anti-bacterial and anti-cancer effect.  It is very important in preventing growing tumors from invading other tissue.
  • Natural killer (NK) cells are among the the many components involved in fighting cancer.  It is essential, however, to have large amounts administered.  Hence the term, “High Dose”.
  • High doses of Vit. C also boost the body’s ability to produce interferon, another anti-cancer agent.
  • Vitamin C reduces the impact STRESS has on the immune system.
  • Vitamin C improves hemoglobin status and in turn the oxygen supply of tissue.
  • It has also been proven to be an important component in building new collagen tissue.  This is very important in healing trauma and re-building ligaments, tendons and cartilage.

DCA and how it is used in cancer treatment

There is a DNA program contained inside every normal cell of the body called apoptosis.  This program tells the cell to commit suicide if it determines that the cell is abnormal or damaged beyond repair.  Without this program, humans would not have the ability to shed old cells for new. * The apoptosis program gets turned off when a cell becomes cancerous.

Through a series of chemical reactions, DCA re-activates the apoptosis program in what is called the mitochondria of the cancer cells.

Cancer treatment options

There is so much dis-information out there these days about cancer treatment options.  We are amazed that so few people, and that includes doctors, know of these innovative, integrative new therapies.

Cancer treatment does not have to be just surgery, full-dose chemo and radiation.

Reno Integrative Medical Center has many unique and science driven therapies to isolate and treat cancer cells, de-cloak cancer that hides from even the best immune system while at the same time enhance and build up the immune system.

We want to educate patients about options to conventional cancer treatment.  There are options.

We encourage patients to learn about these therapies.  No, they are not in the mainstream media but that does not mean they do not exist.

How GcMAF therapy and Nagalase testing work together in treating cancer

Macrophage cells are a specific type of white blood cell whose job it is to kill cancer cells.

Tumor cells release an enzyme known as Nagalase.  Nagalase degrades GCProtein to the point it is unable to become GcMAF. This is a problem because it inhibits the effectiveness of the body to fight cancer.

Since GcMAF only lives for about a week in the body, without continuous conversion of GcProtein, the stores of GcMAF are depleted rapidly in the presence of the enzyme Nagalase.  However, Nagalase can only destroy GcProtein and not GcMAF.

What does this mean?

It means that the body cannot make its’ own GcMAF. Thus, the introduction of external GcMAF through injection into the body has been shown to be effective. This keeps the Macrophage cell activity against the cancer cells optimal.

At Reno Integrative Medical Center, we utilize a blood test that can monitor the level of Nagalase in the body.  This is helpful to evaluate success of treatment.

What is Nagalase and why is it important in treating cancer?

The Nagalase enzyme has the ability to completely shut down the activity of the localized immune macrophage cell, whose job it is to destroy any cell that has been harmed or is not functioning normally.  It effectively “cloaks” the cancer cells from detection by the immune system.  This is the reason that someone can have a strong functioning immune system and still be growing a tumor.  The Nagalase blood test is a good way to check the progress of treatment.

Elevated Blood Sugar=Higher Breast Cancer Risk

bloodsugar

Breast cancer is the disease most women fear most. An abundance of published research links high-normal blood sugar levels to increased breast cancer risk.

In a recent issue of Life Extension magazine (Feb. 2013), an analysis of the scientific literature was published. Of 12 separate studies identified, nine showed an association between higher fasting “normal” blood sugars and higher breast cancer risk.

For example, premenopausal women with a fasting blood sugar above 84mg/dL, (normal range is 65-100), had more than two times the risk of developing breast cancer compared to those with a blood sugar below that number.

In another study involving more than 10,000 women in Italy, it was found that women in the highest glucose “quartile” (average 96mg/dL) had a 63 percent increased risk for breast cancer compared to those in the lowest “quartile”(average 73mg/dL) after being fully adjusted for multiple variables. The authors stated, “we found that elevated fasting glucose levels were significantly associated with subsequent occurrence of breast cancer in both pre and post-menopausal women.”

High-normal blood sugar is a leading cause of premature death overlooked by mainstream doctors today. Most people with these high-normal blood sugars are not diagnosed with diabetes, but just by having a fasting sugar above 85mg/dL, their risk of death from cardiovascular disease increases by 40 percent. This is according to a long term study of close to 2,000 people.

A large body of published scientific research documented that people with higher “after meal” glucose spikes have sharply increased risks for diseases, such as cancer, Alzheimer’s, kidney failure, retinal damage and vascular blockages.

So…what to do? You can start by reducing the ingestion of simple sugars and starches, while eating a higher protein, lower carbohydrate diet. High sugar foods are being cited as the “tobacco issue” of the 21st century. A growing body of evidence indicates this just might come true!

Use of the prescription drug Metformin (as discussed in one of my past articles) can lower blood sugar levels by impeding excess production of glucose in the liver and improving insulin sensitivity. The down side is you have to get a prescription from your doctor and most of them won’t prescribe it to “healthy” people. The good news is that close to the same effects can be accomplished by taking green tea extract, green coffee bean extract, chromium, vanadium and lipoic acid.

One study showed that consumption of 12 cups of coffee daily shows similar benefits, but then there is the issue of all that caffeine!

IPT therapy : An alternative to full-dose chemo

Bobsphotosized

 

The question so many of our patients ask when we tell them about IPT therapy is, “Why isn’t this being offered in mainstream medicine?”  That’s a good question.  We ask, “Why poison the entire body when there is a therapy that can isolate the cancer cells and use only 10% the dose of chemos?”

At Reno Integrative Medical Center we us what is called Insulin Potentiated Therapy or IPT.

GcMAF: A new therapy used in the treatment of cancer

Reno Integrative Medical Center

GcMAF cancer therapy

The MAF in GcMAF stands for Macrophage Activating Factor.

Gc stands for the type of protein molecule.

GcMAF is created in the body by the release of two sugar molecules from a GcProtein molecule.

WHY is this important?

Macrophage cells are a specific type of white blood cell whose job it is to kill cancer cells.

Tumor cells release an enzyme known as Nagalase.  Nagalase degrades GCProtein to the point it is unable to become GcMAF. This is a problem because it inhibits the effectiveness of the body to fight cancer.

Since GcMAF only lives for about a week in the body, without continuous conversion of GcProtein, the stores of GcMAF are depleted rapidly in the presence of the enzyme Nagalase.  However, Nagalase can only destroy GcProtein and not GcMAF.

What does this mean?

It means that the body cannot make its’ own GcMAF. Thus, the introduction of external GcMAF through injection into the body has been shown to be effective. This keeps the Macrophage cell activity against the cancer cells optimal.

At Reno Integrative Medical Center, we utilize a blood test that can monitor the level of Nagalase in the body.  This is helpful to evaluate success of treatment.

This therapy has also demonstrated that it inhibits cancer cell induced angiogenesis (development of new blood vessels), thus depriving the tumor cell mass of the blood, oxygen and nutrient supply that it needs to grow and metastasize.
