Chemotherapy causes cancer….yet again
On November 30th, researchers from Harvard Medical School published a paper revealing another mechanism by which chemo can spread cancer. They found that when cytotoxic drugs attack tumours, they leave behind the “debris” of dead and dying cancer cells – like bodies on a battlefield. Harvard’s extraordinary discovery is that these moribund cells can rise up from the dead and become even more carcinogenic than before. “Chemotherapy designed to kill tumor cells may be a double-edged sword that directly contributes to tumor progression and relapse because tumor cell debris stimulates the survival and growth of living tumor cells,” says Dr. Dipak Panigrahy, one of the 21-strong research team.
Wounded and dead cancer cells have been found to create so-called “pro-inflammatory cytokines” which paradoxically are some of the very “signalling molecules known to promote tumor growth”. And it’s not just chemo that causes this, radiation therapy can too.
The response to yet another bombshell finding has been predictable. Rather than questioning the value of conventional cancer therapies, the hunt is on to find ways of clearing the cancer cell debris….using, you’ve guessed it, yet more drugs.

Then what should be other cancer treatment options?

It is also unfortunate that in some countries the Chemo and Radiation treatment is forced upon minors, regardless of the parent’s wishes - even when the parents are told of the dangers and harmful side effects.
When looking for answers the parents have found that there are alternatives that can be used during these treatments. These alternatives can not only reduce the dangers and side effects but also found the addition of supplements improving the benefits sought by the medical treatments.
We have listed a report on using supplements with Chemo and Radiation. A highlight in this is the section about using Glutathione. Keep in mind this report about Glutathione is based on traditional methods for raising Glutathione levels. There can be issues with these methods in relation to costs, side effects with manufactured substances and the refusal of the treating doctors to allow the use of alternatives.
An interesting benefit has been found with use of Photobiomodulation Glutathione patches. These simple to use patches do not induce any drugs, supplements or any other substance into the body. Working with infra-red light they communicate with the energy system in the body for near immediate and powerful effect. The Glutathione patches can not only raise the level of Glutathione far higher, safer and more effectively than ever before but are very low in cost, easy to use and have NO Harmful Side Effects. These facts are already well proven with extensive clinical studies. Another great advantage is that the patches can even be placed on top of clothing and will still work the same as when applied direct on the skin – this fact alone will often convince a negative medical person to allow the use of the patches during treatments as the patches are not introducing anything into the body to interfere with their treatments.
There are no medical claims made with this report. The patches mentioned are simply a means of assisting the raising of the Glutathione level in the body. As there are now over 90,000 studies on the benefits of raising Glutathione levels this could be of interest for anyone subjected to the risky Chemo and Radiation treatments?
