The Budwig Cancer Diet

For the last 40 years a German Doctor, Johanna Budwig, has been studying the effects of diet and sunlight for the treatment of cancer.  She has been nominated six times for the Nobel Prize in Medicine.  

The key point of her work is that cancer cells are really weak.   We typically think of cancer as strong and overwhelming. But Dr. Budwig’s work shows that cancer cells cannot survive well in the presence of oxygen.   This has been confirmed by numerous other studies.   So if we can oxygenate the cancerous tissues they will die.   Dr. Budwig found a way to increase the oxygen in all cells. 

The basic formula is very simple.   All of our body’s cell membranes are made up of lipo-proteins.   These are a combination of fats and proteins.   The quality of the fats that make up these lipo-proteins determine how much oxygen can be transported into the cell through the cell membrane.   If these fats come from trans fats or saturated fats, they cannot transport oxygen very well.   Cells need highly unsaturated fats and the best sources of these are seed oils like flax seed oil.   These oils unfortunately are very unstable and become rancid very easily.  If you grind flax seed, it needs to be used within one hour.   If there are any liver or gall bladder issues it is hard to get these good oils absorbed and into the cell membrane where they can transport oxygen. 

Dr. Budwig discovered that mixing the flaxseed oil with the protein from low fat cottage cheese, before eating it, solved both problems.   The protein will bind with the flaxseed oil to make a stable, water soluble lipo-protein which does not become rancid quickly and is easily absorbed and assimilated into the cell membrane.   Using this daily will greatly increase cellular oxygenation and cancer cells will not be able to survive.  

For prevention use one tablespoon of good flaxseed oil in one quarter cup of organic low fat cottage cheese (good for B blood type only)  or yogurt daily.  Fresh fruit or organic honey can be added for taste.    For treatment make up four tablespoons of flax seed oil per one or two cups of organic yogurt (cottage cheese for B blood types only) and eat some of that four times per day.  

You must avoid all trans fats and deep fried food.

Holistic Approach to Cancer Treatment

     At the Healing Center our approach to all illness is Holistic.  Nutrition is first, herbs to build and cleanse are next, Homeopathy may be needed to treat specific conditions, and prescription medications, surgery, etc only if needed. 

Cancer is no different except there is a huge fear factor associated with it.   There are good homeopathic remedies for the shock of the bad news and fear of the future.   The nutrition system we use is usually,  "Eat Right for Your Blood Type" by Dr. Peter D'Adamo.   Herbs to build and cleanse are always part of the program.   We often use Essiac Tea which builds the immune system.   Herbal Paw Paw is frequently used to enhance chemotherapy.    

Homeopathic medicine are used to reactivate the body‘s natural healing system to recognize the abnormal cells and eliminate them.  We can help you understand your chemotherapy, radiations, and surgical options. 

We have developed two  Mental Training CDs for people taking chemotherapy and radiation treatments.  These Mental Training Exercises will help everything else you are doing to work better. 

Helping you organize a program which includes all the options is what we do well.   Our motto, “Put Your Health in Your Own Hands”, means helping you be more in control of the healing process of your illness.

Many years ago, I worked with cancer patients doing something I called Cancer Therapy Coaching.    This used Mental Training Exercises which where a combination of Hypnosis, Neuroluingistic Programming (NLP), Guided Imagery, and Prayer.   The purpose was to reduce side effects and improve the benefits of radiation therapy and chemotherapy using the power of the mind and emotions.   It proved to be very successful, but took too much of my time and I was unable to continue that work.    I did promise myself that I would someday put this material together on a recording so anyone could use it.    So after nearly twenty years, we have prepared these CDs for the benefit of people with many health issues, not just cancer.

There are two versions of the CD.   Some people, when they face life’s challenges, feel a reliance upon God.   So, we have prepared "Christian Coaching for Perfect Health", which makes reference to God and Jesus throughout the Mental Training Exercises.    Many other people do not share that view, so “Coaching for Perfect Health” was created without the religious language.    Use which ever version fits your needs at this time in your life.

It is my belief that all serious health issue have physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual components.    “Mind Coaching” addresses all of those as you prepare your body to accept and create Perfect Health.    This material has been used for the following:  Cancer, Arthritis, Pain Syndromes, Preparation for Surgery, Gastritis, Ulcers, Colitis, High Blood Pressure, Anxiety, Depression, and many other stress related conditions.    A more complete description of the content of these CDs can be found elsewhere on our website or you can call us at (989) 352-6500.
