Toxins and cancer progression

The majority of the so-called heavy metals (i.e. arsenic, cadmium, chromium, lead, mercury and nickel) have been defined as carcinogens, increasing the susceptibility of tumor development and progression in humans.

Moreover, nickel, cadmium, chromium, lead, mercury together with zinc and iron, may be capable of stimulating the progression of breast cancer and reducing a patient’s sensitivity to treatment

In patients with gastric cancers, levels of various heavy metals are augmented and hypothesized to amplify the expression of the human epidermal growth factor receptor type 2 gene. Cadmium may increase the risk of lung cancer development and have a negative impact on the overall survival of lung cancer patients, according to this 2024 systematic literature review

Clearing toxins (Detoxification)

The main methods of detoxification are Strenuous Exercise / Sweating and Safe removal of root canals and amalgams. The latter is crucial if you have cancer.

Strenuous Exercise / Sweating

This study says: Sweating offers potential and deserves consideration, to assist with removal of toxic elements from the body. Arsenic, cadmium, lead, and mercury may be excreted in appreciable quantities through the skin.. 

This study says: The results not only showed that physical exercise has a significant effect on the balance of trace elements but also indicated that perspiration during physical exercise can effectively remove the toxic heavy metals from the body and reduce the accumulation of trace heavy metals in the body.

A 2011 study says:
Induced sweating appears to be a potential method for elimination of many toxic elements from the human body.

Safe removal of root canals and amalgams

There are four major causes of dental toxins that can directly affect your health:

  • Root canal-filled teeth
  • Cavitation sites where teeth have been extracted
  • Mercury amalgam fillings
  • Metal in the mouth that causes a body reaction

97% of cancer patients had root canals
Dr. Josef M. Issels, MD, a German doctor, became internationally known for his remarkable rate of complete long-term remissions of “incurable cancers” in patients who had exhausted all standard treatments, such as advanced cancers of the breast, uterus, prostate, colon, liver, lung, brain, sarcomas, lymphomas, and leukemias.

After completion of Dr. Issels’ treatment, these patients remained cancer free for up to 45 years, leading normal healthy lives. Dr. Issels found that in his 40 years of treating terminal cancer patients, 97% of his cancer patients had root canals.

Dental toxins were almost always a direct cause of the cancer.
The late Bill Henderson (cancer coach) claimed that in his experience with patients with cancer, dental toxins were almost always a direct cause of the cancer. Those patients who deal with this issue competently get over the cancer much more frequently than those who don’t.

Study found (98%) had one or more root canal-filled teeth
The Paracelsus Clinic in Switzerland in Switzerland has treated patients with cancer since 1957. In 2004, the clinic’s Director, Dr. Thomas Rau, feeling that most patients with breast cancer they were treating had root canal teeth, decided to do a study.

He reviewed the records of the last 150 of their patients with breast cancer. He found that 147 of them (98%) had one or more root canal-filled teeth on the same meridian as their original breast cancer tumor. He believes there is no doubt that this was the primary cause of their cancers. The other three had cavitation problems.

Note: Root canals should be removed only by a holistic dentist.

Other ways to Detox

Food and Supplements
This
scientific review says some foods and supplements support natural detoxification pathways.
Flax seed
Modified citrus pectin
Alpha lipoic acid
N-acetyl-cysteine


Zeolite
This study concluded: This study was able to provide data that zeolite in all three different preparations tested proved to be a safe substance for human consumption. The powdered zeolite preparation (Zeolite Pure by ZEO Health) has shown to be an effective oral chelation agent for detoxification of several toxic metals. When properly prepared as an oral supplement, zeolite can provide support to the human body to rid itself of heavy and toxic metals with minimal or no side effects. The use of zeolite can be used in cases of lead, mercury or radiation poisoning to
remove the harmful metals without further taxing the body.

Signature Chelate by Sylvie Beljanski®
helps the liver expel its toxic load of cadmium, lead, mercury, iron and arsenic. It then binds to those pollutants and supports their complete removal from the body. 

Selenium
This study found that selenium protects against the toxic effects of metals: lead, cadmium, arsenic, mercury, and organic compounds

Probiotics
This study review says probiotics are capable of detoxifying pesticides through secretion of hydrolytic enzymes

DMPS
This 2024 study says DMPS (2,3-dimercapto-1-propane sulfonic acid) is a suitable chelator for cadmium, arsenic, and both organic and inorganic mercury (Aposhian 1983). The DMPS is preferentially administered intravenously, rapidly transformed into a disulfide form, and excreted in the urine and bile.

This 2020 mini review says:
Numerous human studies have failed to uncover any significant adverse impacts of DMPS upon human renal function.


Note: EDTA, BAL, DMSA, and D-penicillamine are also effective chelators but are not covered here due to their potentially serious Adverse Effects.

How to detox for breast cancer, fast

Source: Judy Seeger, ND

Did you know that between 1999 to 2006 breast cancer rates decreased!
Why?
Personally, I believe that women were using LESS HRT – hormonal replacement therapy because they got scared. Some of you will remember the WHI study (Womens Health Initiative) that followed over 161,000 women over 10 years to see the effect of synthetic hormonal replacement therapy on those who had a uterus and those who did not. The results?
A horrible experiment gone wrong!

Women started dying after 5 years! They stopped the study and also found that HRT also INCREASED:
– the risk of heart attack
– the risk of stroke
– the risk of blood clots
– the risk of breast cancer
Wow! Who wants to be on HRT? Any takers?

Detox Method #1
Ok, so common sense tells us that if breast cancer DECREASED when women were getting off the HRT, then to detox more of those chemicals makes sense, right?

The WORSE toxins are those you put on your body. These include:
• shampoo, conditioner, body soap
• hair gel, spray
• underarm deodorant
• cosmetics
• body lotion

Poison is poison – it can cause rashes and if you have enough poison over many years, deadly diseases like cancer are the result!

Switch to all natural products – go on a shopping spree to your local health food store to get products that are safe for you! As long as you’re on a roll, go through the rest of your house and eliminate the air fresheners to household cleaners. Make a clean sweep!

Detox Method #2
Eat fruits high in ellagic acid – raspberry, blackberry, strawberry, blueberry, pomegranate. Studies have now shown that ellagic acid is able to cause apoptosis (cell death) in cancer cells.

Detox Method #3
Clean your lymph nodes! Did you know your lymphatic system protects your body from excess poison? Your lymph fluids can ONLY MOVE when YOU move! THIS is why exercise is VITAL when you have breast cancer!

Here’s a secret tip: Exercising just once a day is NOT enough. You see, your lymphs are pumping all day long doing their job, so they need you to exercise 2-3 times a day in short bursts. 20 minutes, 3 times a day is better than one full hour.
