Cancer Natural Alternative Therapies & Treatments

Iscador (mistletoe)

Iscador is the commercial name for a preparation made from mistletoe. It has been utilized by physicians in Europe since 1920.  Iscador is made from certain fermented extracts of the European mistletoe plant (Viscum album).  Some of the preparations are blended with small quantities of metals to give anti-cancer results.  The preparation was originally conceived by an Austrian scientist, Rudolf Steiner, who was also the founder of anthrosposophical medicine. There are nearly 5,000 case studies reporting success in treating cancer with Iscador.  In experiments with animals, it has been discovered that Iscador markedly inhibits the formation of tumors, promotes immune system activity and kills cancer cells.  When Iscador is given by injection, the activity of NK cells and other various immune cells elevates significantly.  There have  been two scientific reviews of Iscador clinical research and both have stated that therapy with Iscador increases the quality of life, lengthens the life, shrinks tumors, causes cancer to stabilize and generally promotes the overall wellbeing of the patient.  Iscador’s effectiveness as a therapy for cancer is clearly supported by these findings:  (1) After 3 years, the survival rate for patients with skin cancer who took Iscador was 80 percent compared to 65 percent for those not taking it; (2) 75 percent of bronchial cancer patients taking Iscador were living after 4 years compared to only 35 percent of those not taking it; (3) persons with bladder papillomas not taking Iscador experienced a malignancy rate of 50 percent while the rate for those taking Iscador was 14 percent; (4) an 83 percent five year survival rate was realized for women with cervical cancer if they had surgery, radiation and Iscador while the rate was 69 percent for those who had radiation alone; (5) a significantly larger number of women with breast cancer treated with Iscador were doing well after 10 years than those who had none.

Maitake Mushroom (Grifola)

Clinical researchers at the National Cancer Center in Japan demonstrated total elimination of tumors in approximately 80% of animals with cancer who were given maitake mushroom extracts.  Compounds in the mushroom enhanced the tumor fighting ability of NK cells and improved the response of antibodies. The researchers found that Maitake exhibited powerful action against cancer impeding both metastasis and carcinogenesis. Research with animals demonstrated the maitake supplements elevated the body’s ability to destroy tumors.  Compared to conventional chemotherapy, maitake showed better ability to impede the growth of tumors by 85% to 45%.

Chinese Herbal Treatment

Chinese traditional medicine often treats cancer with Fu Zheng therapy which utilizes herbs and especially ginseng and astragalus.  JAMA (The Journal of the American Medical Association) reported that patients with rapidly advancing cancers who added Chinese herbal therapy doubled their life expectancy. Patients who had Fu Zheng not only lived longer but more easily tolerated their conventional treatment.
