I really don't know if survival is up because of bias in the way the patients are selected etc.
If cancer is a metabolic disease and it surely points to that being true then no matter of drugs
would be able to cure it.

The only way to deal with it would be to back peddle and accept
what evolution did to combat the disease i.e. restore the missing defence mechanisms...

Glad you got better. I am certainly not trying to persuade anyone to have or refuse any treatment. I found it an interesting slant and thought it worthy of more discussion. I think the relationship we have with health is different for all of us..

Thanks. I'm pretty blunt on the topic as I was once one of those folks who maintained that if they ever got cancer, they'ed go straight alternative. So when I got tapped on the shoulder, I started essiac, Budwig protocol, Zyflamend, and over the course of a few months, they did precisely squat. My oncologist said...here...this radiation will cure you, and it did. Yes, it had been diagnosed and treated early and that's key.
However, spend a while going through diagnosis and treatment courtesy of the University of Youtube, etc, you can lose that precious window of opportunity. Here's a tip...don't trust anyone who is not a doctor unless they themselves have had cancer and beaten it through alternative means. I don't care what any one may say...if they have not stared cancer in the face, they don't know what they'd do.
Rant over, eh?

No, no bias involved: survival rates have improved because of better detection techniques as interventions are most effective when cancer is detected at its earliest stages.
I have read a couple of articles that hint at a metabolic cause of cancer and not only genetics, but nothing confirmed. I have also read about metabolic therapy, mainly with diets and supplements, but they don't cure cancer. A healthy diet may help prevent cancer, but it cannot cure it. And true that cancer treatments are tough on the body, because they attack healthy cells too, but they have been proven to cure or control cancer and right now they are the best treatments we have.

How do you suggest we do that?

Dear OP
Another controversial and more modern analysis about chemotherapy.
www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov...
Google keywords : Ulrich Abel Cancer Chemotherpy
Limbo
My definition of "modern" when applied to the medical field is in the last 5 years.
This review was published in 1992 which if my maths serves me correct is 23 years ago.
That's a long time and medicine has changed considerably.

Science is science no matter what. I could care less if it is 50 years or 5 years.
If it has not been rebuked in peer review then there's a good chance it still stands.

How do you suggest we do that?
Stop poisoning enzyme systems in the body.
Well we could eliminate glyphosate and other enzyme p450 inhibitors for a start.
Stop using fungicides on plants which enables the plants to manufacture salvestrols.
(Organic produce contains plenty of salvestrols.)
Another solution would be to stop the inhibitors and introduce salvestrols into the food supply.
Work on better methods of agriculture that do not use these inhibitors.
Work towards more healthy foods which contain more minerals and anti oxidants.

Not surprising since radiation is obviously highly acidic to the body. Cancer is caused by cells mutating from being in an acid medium so what happens you put acids on acids? Hmm...why not address what caused the cancer in the first place like poor lifestyle, weak genetics, and the environment you reside in. We're talking chemistry here. Remove acids from the body by getting your kidneys filtering, leaving cooked acid forming foods in the dust and consuming alkaline living hydrating foods our bodies were designed to eat. Or you can go through chemotherapy and hope it works then hope cancer doesn't return since you haven't done anything to change the reason you got it in the first place. What a stupid ass way to treat a condition. I don't give an acrobatic f*** if it worked for you either. It's not the way, don't promote it.
Nearly.
But not quite.
Firstly, how is "radiation obviously acidic to the body"?
Be as specific as you can be and go into as much detail as you're able to please.
Cancer cells produce a transient, localised acidic environment due to the way they metabolise (it's also extremely weak and neutralised almost immediately).
They do not mutate nor do they grow due to an acidic environment in fact they require exactly the same pH levels as normal cells in order to grow.
That's physiological fact.
I'm talking BIOchemistry here.
Unfortunately the woo-meisters have either misunderstood this basic fact or are twisting it to sell books, therapies etc (my guess is the latter).
Even if this wasn't the case, eating alkaline foods would have no effect on the body's pH levels (food goes into stomach acid and anything alkaline is neutralised before it goes any further).
Homeostasis. Look it up.
I'll paraphrase your last sentence to bring it into the real world.
What a stupid ass way to treat a condition. There's no scientific way that it could work. The only way it could work is by magic but it doesn't anyway. It's not the way, don't promote it.

Thank you!
Pardon? has provided you with UK graphs too that back up what I said earlier.
I have to admit that the UK's statistics regarding childhood cancer look a lot better than the US ones, I'm still trying to think why. But, we cannot deny that survival has improved a lot, up to 80% which is three times more than 30 years ago! That says a lot about medical advances.
Cancer have always existed but in the past people used to die pretty quickly. Now most people can survive for decades and most manage to live a good life, I have met many.

Please enlighten us with your solution regarding weak genetics: how can we fix it?
And the acid theory, I'm sure you have good evidence to share here.
There is no simple answer to cancer, it can happen even if you live a very healthy life away from civilization. Of course there are clear things we can do to prevent it, like not smoking for example, but scientists are yet to discover exactly why cancer happens, especially childhood one.
I don't usually do testimonial type things on here but currently, the 16 year old daughter of a good friend of mine is about in the middle of her chemo treatment.
A while ago she noticed a lump on her leg and after a few checks she was diagnosed with a rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS).
This, in simple terms, is a cancer which effects muscle and connective tissues.
Immediately after diagnosis she went through a course of radiotherapy to limit the cancer spread (it's a pretty nasty one and can spread very quickly.)
She tolerated the rad reasonably well and that was successful and as I said, she's now halfway through her chemo.

You can reach genetic potential and strengthen weaknesses by simply feeding your cells what they require. Bathing yourself in high energy fruits, massive herbs and doing away with damaging hazardous cuisines. It's simple really. I was born with asthma, genetic weakness, couldn't run down the street with medicines. Had to be home schooled for quite some time. Switched my lifestyle up and I run miles non stop no medicine, just coconut water and fresh grape juice. I have begun to strengthen what was once weak.
The medicines I took for years (prednisone, albuterol) and other crap have taken a toll on my pituitary and adrenals among other glands. With the herbs I am regenerating what the medical system has once poisoned with their lousy way of helping. I have healed tumors effortlessly this way and many others have done so and much more for their bodies by consuming alkaline foods, removing acids from the body, and staying consistent.
Ask yourself, what are you composed of? Think abut everything you have ever eatin...what was that sh**? Who made it? What was it laced with and what has it done to your evolution...now imagine you knew everything you ate was beneficial to your body in an organic non tampered with way. No human interaction for profitable reasons, no lab made chemicals to keep the food from rotting sooner, no burning up of nutrients by cooking what is supposed to hydrate and nourish your cells...who would you be then? Would you have cancer? Na jack. You'd be the one helping others to cure themselves from cancer with the truth. Don't believe this scientific game. The puzzle has been solved...now go put the pieces together for yourself

Once again, if you read my post you'll see that cancer have always existed even when man made chemicals had not been invented yet!
I'm talking thousands of years ago!
I don't think you read people's posts, you are in such hurry to write the same thing in many different forums!!
BTW, I'm 45, I look at least 10 years younger, no illness, no medication: should I now tell people to follow my lifestyle just like you do?

Thousands of years ago to today people have damaged their cells with a high protein diet which equals wrecked eliminative organs which equals acidosis and cancer.

How is radiation acidic to the body? What is the pH of chemo? Tell me please. The cancer cells are mutated healthy cells that sat in an acidic environment because the body was unable to eliminate properly. Had the kidneys, the lymphatic system and the skin not been clogged by acid wastes/proteins/mucus/toxins then there is no cancer. The body is constantly detoxing itself when organs are working because the body isn't being fed crap.
You have much to learn about what cancer is, and how to remove it from the body. Lymph is our sewer system and surrounds every cell, when it's backed up that's called acidosis which is the cause of minor issues like acne or something potentially fatal like cancer. You say you cannot change the pH of the body...pH test your saliva on your current diet then go on a high fruit diet for 3 days and recheck. Mr Mackey mmkay for ya buddy. Get your lymph moving and kidneys filtering with specific herbs and a raw vegan, high fruit way of life to remove cancer naturally by providing your highly intelligent body the tools it needs via the Earth to do what it can do without RADIATION. RADIATION HAHAHA seriously? Go read some books, Jensen, Arnold Ehret, Dr Morse or you can youtube videos. You're still in programmed land by the AMA. Wake the f*** up and get with the truth. You'll see one day
