The average length of life now is somewhere around 75 years right? Which is crazy when you consider the dramatic increase that this number represents in the amount of knowledge and technology that medicine has experienced in the last 30 years. The problem is that we get people to live longer and we find out the next major factor that is limiting the length of our life. At this moment that limiting factor is cancer and our lack of definitive cancer treatment.

It isn’t that we don’t understand cancer very well–because we do. We know that it goes back to errors that occur in our DNA in one cell most of the time that enable that cell to break out of the normal and healthy limitations of growth and connectivity to other cells. This rogue cell than goes and reeks havoc by invading areas critical to life and destroying (more…)

On Dec. 15, 2008, Benno Schmidt of the CBS Early Show reported on a BSA medical paper that will be released in a few weeks, telling about a new therapy treatment for 4 serious cancers. John Kanzius Cancer Research Foundation is the founder and inventor of a new research technique that can target and kill cancer cells with little invasion to the body and no side effects!

The inventor, John Kanzius, is not a doctor, nor even does he possess a college degree. And yet, he has discovered a ground breaking research technique that with 100% accuracy, can kill 4 types of cancer cell tumors in rabbits. The quest was to find a way to deliver nano-particles, which are little nano sized pieces of carbon and gold delivered directly to the cells by sending it through the bloodstream. Once the nano particles reach the cancer cells, then Kanzius uses a radio wave therapy to heat and kill the cancer cells. A big obstacle Kanzius strove to overcome was getting the nanoparticles to the cancer cells without harming the healthy cells. Another obstacle, was the radio wave device itself. Currently it’s only large enough to treat a small rabbit. So the device has to be built larger and power intensity increased. John Kanzius is already working with a manufacturer to develop a larger and stronger radio wave machine.

Those two obstacles are not so impossible now. The delivery system has worked on rats. The next step is to test more than 10,000 rats to prove the results. The new and improved radio wave system will start testing on large animals and hopefully it will be ready for human testing in 5 years. Now that sounds like a long time, but most treatments take at least 10 years to finally be approved for human testing. The new therapy is moving along much faster than anyone expected.

Why is this particular treatment moving faster than others in the past? John Kanzius says it is because of the great financial support the Research Center has raised to take the dream from his garage in 2005 to this point of scientific experimentation and validation; starting out with one researcher and now utilizing 13 project researchers. The research has garnered excitement and is moving forwards quickly with large health centers and hospitals joining the ranks of the impressed observers. There will be 4 major health centers involved in testing.

Steven Curley, M.D is the primary investigator of Kanzius’ new cancer killing machine. Curley is from the M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston. He is convinced the radio wave therapy will work. He and Kanzius went to The Regional Cancer Center in Millcreek Township to investigate the likely hood of this center being a testing facility for humans in the next couple of years. This happens to be in the same city where the inventor himself lives. If the government approves, this will be an exciting cancer research project for the local research center to lead.

Inventor, John Kanzius personally takes calls from people who are suffering and have been given a terminal cancer diagnosis. They want to be treated with the new radio wave therapy. Dr. Steven Curley says he speaks to 40 people compared to every 1 person Kanzius encounters. The treatment cannot be used to treat people until the tests are run and the government gives the final OK. Dr. Curley thinks the time is close at hand, and hopes to see human testing in the next 2 years.

We at Boomer Yearbook are excited and thrilled by the prospect of this type of cancer treatment. We’d love to hear your thoughts.

Product Description
Is effective non-toxic cancer treatment being suppressed? Hundreds of people who wrote to the court in Jimmy Keller’s defense in 1991 thought so. Many wrote that he had kept their cancers in remission when nothing else would. This is the true story of a man who cured himself of a near-fatal cancer after conventional medicine had mutilated and then abandoned him. He spent the next thirty years helping others with the disease. In the struggle to keep his clinic open, he faced raids and robberies, a near-fatal beating, a kidnapping, and a prison sentence many called justice gone wrong. The details of his therapies, and the history and vicissitudes of the non-traditional health care movement that his life personifies, are woven throughout his story.

Forbidden Medicine: Is Effective Non-toxic Cancer Treatment Being Suppressed?

Current cancer treatments are only as good as the doctor and the hospital providing the treatment – and the stage of the cancer being treated. I am amazed sometimes at how quickly someone, who appears to be quite healthy, happy and full of life, suddenly goes down hill when diagnosed with cancer. Is it the cancer that is affecting them or the knowledge that they have cancer.

There has always been the theory that once they operate and the air gets to the cancer, it is downhill from there. When you look at the many people who have cancer, who then have surgery, and are then worse off, you have to wonder. Perhaps it is an illusion. Perhaps they would have gone downhill anyway.

We seem to be fairly good at detecting cancers, at least those in mid to late stages. Most treatments are ineffective at this stage of the disease. (more…)
