Many may wonder why I wouldn’t agree that the traditional orthodox cancer treatments are the best route to go for cancer. Why not consider surgery, radiation and chemotherapy?
While surgery may remove many of the cancer cells by removing a tumor, it does not address the cause of the cancer, nor does it guarantee that all of the cancer is removed. Radiation and chemotherapy kills cancer cells, but it also destroys multitudes of healthy cells, making it very difficult for a person’s body to fight the cancer.
According to Cancer Tutor:
Orthodox methods have a true cure rate of less than 3%.
Alternative, natural methods have a cure rate of 90%.
For patients that try orthodox methods first, and then proceed to natural, they have a cure rate of about 50%.
The reason for a lesser success rate in the latter statistic is due to the fact that so many healthy cells are destroyed with orthodox methods and only 50% of the time is a patient able to recover and heal their bodies with natural means.
We of course know that cancer is not something that is contagious, but a condition that develops in the body. Cancer happens when there are more cancerous cells than there are healthy cells. A healthy body fights cancer on a regular basis. When poor lifestyle choices are practiced continuously, cancer cells may rapidly multiply, causing them to become life-threatening. In order to naturally fight cancer, you have to address the main things that cause cancer: toxins and poor diet.
There are several different natural means that have been successfully used to heal cancer. I encourage anyone who has cancer to thoroughly research and decide on the plan best for them, but here are a few basic ways to beat cancer:
Cleansing
Removing toxins from the body is essential to fighting cancer. From the colon to the blood, the entire body has to be cleansed on a regular basis. I typically cleanse on a yearly basis.

Eat foods that fight cancer.
It is said that consuming 5 servings of organic raw fruits and vegetables does more to fight cancer than a treatment of radiation or chemotherapy. Other healthy foods are raw nuts, herbs, coconut oil, flax, raw apple cider vinegar, seeds from apples and apricots, etc. According to Dr. Krebs, a cancer patient should start with eating a few apple or apricot seeds a day, and build up to about 30 seeds a day. Don’t eat the seeds all at once, spread them throughout the day. Apple and apricot seeds are very high in vitamin B17 {apricot is the highest}, which fights cancer! Flood your body with herbal teas and infusions also.
Avoid all foods that feed cancer.
White sugar, white flour, artificial sweeteners, coffee, processed foods, soda, etc. Only eat pure foods of mostly fresh fruits and vegetables.
Supply your body with essential enzymes.
Our food supply is deficient of living enzymes. Enzymes cause food to spoil faster, therefore the food industry removes them to give food a longer shelf life. However, enzymes are essential to a healthy life. One of the best ways to get the enzymes you need is by juicing fresh fruits and vegetables. According to Webster Kehr, wheatgrass juice is one of the best juices to fight cancer. I would consume fresh wheatgrass juice daily, plus a large variety of other fresh fruits and vegetable juices.

Build the Immune System
Flood your body with good probiotics. Homemade kefir is one of the best!
Exercise every day!
Rebounding is one of the best possible exercises. Whichever exercise routine you choose, be sure to add rebounding to it! A rebounder boosts red blood cells, get oxygen circulating through each cell and builds new, healthy cells.
I will repeat that I realize there are other specific natural remedies for cancer, but I have covered basic methods in taking a natural approach. There are many, many people that have beat their cancer by completely changing their diet and lifestyle.
What natural cancer remedies do you have knowledge of?
Jill is a Christian and has been married to her dear husband for 12 years. She’s a homeschool mom of 4 and is thankful for God’s goodness in her daily life. As a certified family herbalist, her passions include reading and researching about health and home remedies, and sharing with others the knowledge she gains. You can find her blogging at Jill’s Home Remedies and connect with her on Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest.
I agree with you completely, Jill. My mom had this videotape of these 5 oncologists speaking about cancer and they said the key to cancer is to prevent it. I have read that cancer cells can’t survive in raw foods but mulitiply in sugar. Even smokers who eat tons of raw fruits and vegetables have clear lungs. Raw foods are powerful.
A grape juice fast is another way to fight it.
There is some fascinating research on using essential oils to cure cancer at:

I think in addition to the lifestyle changes you listed above, the certified pure theraputic grade essential oils can be a powerful way for the body to heal itself. I don’t have any personal experience with oils and cancer, but the research is pretty amazing!
This is a great article, Jill. Two wonderful women I knew did combine natural & orthodox methods but leaned more toward conventional medicine. I don’t fault either of them for doing so because I don’t even want to imagine a choice like that and the fear involved in it. Though they were both “healed” at some point in treatment, they both died from cancer within a couple of years.
It is a horrible disease, and I agree 100% with your view: Heal the body naturally!
Thank you for all the comments and great info, ladies!
Great post. I have also heard of other remedies like Limu Juice and the Bob Beck Protocol. The Bob Beck Protocol also aids in curing of AIDS, hepatitis, etc.
Awesome, Felicia! Thanks for sharing! I love learning new things!
