Free Defeat Cancer by Connie Strasheim

the B-vitamins, and Vitamin C. They don’t do well with Vitamin E. Meat eaters have great results with calcium, zinc, selenium, and Vitamin E, but don’t do well when they take magnesium and potassium. They also don’t do well with most B-vitamins (except for B-12 and a few others), large doses of Vitamin C and D, manganese and chromium, whereas vegetarians tend to do well with the latter minerals. Balanced people are somewhere in-between and do well with all kinds of vitamins, minerals and trace elements.
    The approach that conventional medicine takes to researching nutrients and their effects upon people is nonsensical. The conventional approach yields results that are “all over the map.” For instance, when testing the effects of selenium upon the body, researchers will give the same dose of the same type of selenium to everyone, but a vegetarian needs a different dose of selenium than a meat eater, so the results will be skewed because of this factor. Also, doing tests this way doesn’t take into account a person’s entire system. In my practice, we prescribe different forms of calcium, depending upon the patient’s metabolism. Nutrients facilitate everyreaction in the body, and they are extremely powerful, for good and for bad. The wrong dose of the wrong nutrient to the wrong person will cause chaos in the body, which is also why the “one-size-fits all” studies are crazy. They also don’t make sense because their results are assessed independently of the impact that the particular tested nutrient has upon other nutrients in the body. Thus, the overall effect of a given nutrient upon the body cannot be accurately determined in isolation. Nutrients work together with other nutrients; for example, Vitamin E protects selenium and selenium protects Vitamin E; Vitamin C protects both Vitamin E and selenium, so if I give a patient Vitamin C with selenium and vitamin E, I don’t need to give high doses of any of these nutrients, because they are preserving the effects of each other. There are very complex interactions between all of the nutrients, and vegetarians need different supplements in different doses than meat eaters do, so it’s important to give the right supplements to the right people. When this principle is respected, and patients are prescribed a proper diet, every system in the body works better, from the neurological system, to the endocrine system, to all the others.
    It’s important to support the entire body and all of its systems, so that it can better fight cancer, and we do this in our practice. Conventional oncologists don’t do this though. They don’t care if their patients eat ice cream, but we do. We worry about everything, because we want every system in our patients’ bodies working well and functioning as close as possible to 100 percent capacity. Only then can they effectively fight cancer.
    The supplements that I prescribe to my patients include a variety of vitamins, herbs, anti-oxidants, trace minerals and glandular formulas. We are big on glandulars, which are comprised of concentrated animal glands and organs that contain minute amounts of hormones and other beneficial factors to heal and balance the body. All of our glandular formulas and other animal products come from New Zealand, a country that has never had mad cow disease and which remains the cleanest, most unpolluted place on earth. New Zealand has the strictest cattle-raising laws in the world, so theyhave been able to avoid mad cow and other diseases. Some of the glandular formulas that we use include freeze-dried heart, adrenal glands, dried ovaries, and lungs, which are effective for supporting the body in a variety of ways. For instance, if patients have weak lungs, I might give them a lung glandular formula. Some of my colleagues laugh at me for doing this kind of therapy, but I tell them that it really works, because, for instance, there are growth factors in the freeze-dried lung of an animal that heal human
