Complementary therapies for ovarian cancer

[Barney22]

I'm a new member so not sure if this has been covered.  I live in the UK and use the internet to find out what's happening with different areas of research.  Having had surgery and chemo (successful)last year for stage 3c/4 ovarian cancer I now suspect things are changing - my CA125 jumped from 7 to 36 in 3 months and I'm now being called back in 2 weeks for checks on the CA125.  I also have some lower abdo pain and pressure when I pass urine.  Getting very anxious!



Have been looking at how to improve my chances before further chemo etc has to be brought forward, and have been looking at complementary methods - acupuncture, Gerson's regime (can't face coffee enemas or the diet!), breathing exercises, vitamin and mineral supplements etc.  



Found a website www.cancerprevention.com on Amazon when I was looking at books in this area - promoted on a number of other websites.  My question - does anyone know about the source of the material on this site and its claims?  It provides very comprehensive info on reasons for cancer developing and a list of supplements (mainly) to stop it in its tracks and claims of cures.  You can't see any author or source - I found a link to a site selling these products (in Alaska) which are pretty expensive.  Does anyone have any knowledge or experience or is it yet more marketing of snake oil?  Their main promotion is of Cellular Zeolite - recently patented in the US but I can't find any really useful references to this elsewhere and it doesn't appear to be available in the UK.



Any help out there?



Thanks

I am not familiar with the website and supplementation that you mention. However, there is a  nutritional supplement that  recent studies have shown to have a beneficial impact on ovarian and lung cancer. Called IP-6, it is Inositol hexaphosphate.  The initial studies were done in the late 1990s, and a recent study (dating from this past summer) produced the same results as the original study.  The supplement, which occurs normally in grain, appears to assist chemotherapy treatments in fighting the cancer.



Given the recent study, your doctor or cancer treatment specialist will likely be able to assist you in finding the supplement and properly dosing yourself.  Be certain that you consult with your treatment provider before taking any supplement, as some can interfer with the drugs being used to fight the disease.

[Barney22]

Sorry, I misled you - the website is www.Cancer-Prevention.net



I'm not on any medication at present, just trying to improve my immune system and use supplements or activities to slow down any further cancer cell development.  I checked out the IP6 you mentioned but could only find pretty lukewarm/negative reports on its usefulness for cancer.  Do you have the info on the reports from this last year?  Would be very useful.  Many thanks.

Someone else asked about this news report and I could not find it.  I could not find it because there were too darned many links to sort through them all.  The reports, both from the late 1990s and the recent edition, studied cancer treatment responses when inositol hexaphosphate was used in conjunction with standard cancer treatments.   The reports specifically mentioned lung cancer and ovarian cancer as having improved treatment response.   That, unfortunately, is all that I recall, and I did not cut the article out of the newspaper after I read it so I do not even know who released the study report nor do I know how the inositol hexaphosphate was administered.  I do know that the supplement is available in capsule form from herbal supplement providers.  I think it is sold as an "immune system support" nutrient.



A naturopathic or homeopathic specialist could probably provide you with more, and better, information.

Sorry I think your name is Barney in the UK... I read about this Cellular Zeolite today and the only one claiming to have the patent is at www.waiora.com hope this helps as I am in the same boat rowing, the claims the other site are a little too much to beleive but what the hell do we have to loose.

Hi Everyone,



I have been reading about zeolite and other products on the www.cancer-prevention.net website as well.  I was going to look for a supplier of zeolite on google and when I searched for "cellular zeolite" I read this post and also found a website that says the product itself can cause long-term cancer!  Please see http://www.cqs.com/zeolite.htm



thought I would bring this to your attention...

I was wondering if that cellular zeolite worked for anybody??????

[dmahoney22]

I have given Zeolite for my dog the last 3 weeks. Advanced agressive tumor in his hip. Only atrophy is a sign he has problems. Zeolite can't do anything about dysplasia but he is doing great and doctors can't figure it out.

[kraipur]

From where did you hear about Zeolite first? It seems like this product has been recently introduced in the market. Do you think it was zeolite that worked on your dog?



Thanks,

Kirti

Hi everyone, I'm also very interested in Cellular Zeolite. My dad has stomach cancer that can't be operated on and the doctor believes Chemo/radiotion isn't going to have any effect.

My dad also read the www.Cancer-Prevention.net article and we will try Vitamin B17 and Cellular Zeolite. It's correct that Waiora is the only company selling it (it has the patent). There are apparently other types of Zeolite, but their product has been engineered to be more effective.

I would've ordered it already, but the Order Form only lets you select USA/Japan/Canada and a few other Asian countries where they are based. We're in Australia, so I'm trying to find out why they can't ship overseas. So far they haven't responded to my email. ANY information or comments on this would be great.

Hi,

I read all the articles about cellular Zeolite and I feel it is not fake. I also talked to one of its independent distributor and she said her dad had prostate cancer and this product reduced his PSA level to below normal which I think is great.My dad is recently diagnosed with Colon cancer and I already have ordered it.

The distributor's  name is Alexine and you can visit her website at www.zeolady.com and her contact number is 856-764-0319. I guess if you can request her she can ship the product to Australia.



Thanks,

I am in England and have recieved 2 consignments of cellular zeolite (Natural Cellular Defence) from www.gethealthyagain.com

They are in Alaska and I have found them to be very prompt with despatch - sameday with my  last order and most helpful.



Hope you find this information useful

[tom_kauf]

Thanks kraipur and marmo. I ordered it and asked a friend in the US to pass to package on to Australia. It's good to know that more people are using it and beleive in it.



Thanks,
