Feb 4 is World Cancer Day.
In many people who have cancer, and who have the typical medical "treatments" of surgery, chemotherapy and radiation, the cancer often comes back. This can be for a couple of reasons. The medical treatments focus on the SYMPTOMS, which is the cancer itself. To either cut out the symptom with surgery, or poison the symptom with chemotherapy, or to nuke it with radiation. For every cancer (or other symptom or condition) there are ALWAYS root causes which triggered the issue and which continue to cause its progression. In fact there's usually a combination of multiple root causes in each person which cause the issue. But the medical model doesn't work on the root causes. It's not in their training or how they work. At all. They just treat the cancer (the symptom), typically as a standard protocol, which means they are treating the condition or diagnosis, and not you as an individual. If you don't get your own root causes of your cancer (or other symptom or condition) identified and fixed or removed, then your cancer will return again and again until you do fix those root causes. Also, the medical "treatments" of chemotherapy and radiation are well known to cause additional toxicity and DNA damage to cells and the body, and to reduce immune system function. These are also causes of why cancers come back. There are a lot of known causes of cancer, numbered in the many hundreds, which MUST be identified, removed and treated. This can put the brakes on the cancer progression, and to allow the body to start to heal. Treating all the root causes in each person can also prevent cancer recurrence, and for long-term prevention. To find out more about the many causes of cancer, for prevention or for treatment, I have a 5-hour webinar on this topic! My Cancer Prevention Webinar 2023 includes the history and statistics of cancer to show how the medical model for cancer isn't working, the many common causes of cancer and the causes of the most common cancers, myths and misinformation about cancer prevention and treatments, testing for cancers, and more. This webinar is for those with cancer and their families, for health practitioners, and those who want to improve their general health and prevent cancer. Access to the recording is available immediately with a ticket, and you can access this webinar as often as needed and with no expiry.

The development and progression of cancer has a lot of causative factors, which can be different in each person. Cancer ALWAYS has known causes, and always has more than one cause in each person.
I have noticed a number of common factors in recent cancer cases, and one of the main factors is having low iron levels, or iron deficiency anaemia. Iron is needed, amongst other things, to make haemoglobin, the oxygen-carrying protein in the red blood cells. If there's not enough iron, haemoglobin production and red blood cell production and function will be affected, causing poor circulation, reduced oxygen supply to the cells and tissues, reduced function of all cells, reduced energy (as oxygen is needed for energy production), and other symptoms of muscle aches and pains, headaches and migraines, heart pains, higher heart/pulse rate (as the heart compensates for the lower oxygen supply), higher blood pressure, poor stamina, brain fog and confusion, fainting and dizziness, shortness of breath, pallor (pale skin), and more. The low oxygen level and poor circulation causes hypoxia, being low levels of oxygen in the body tissues. Other than with the above symptoms, hypoxia can be tested either with your doctor or other health practitioner with a "pulse oximeter" and confirmed with blood tests too. However, start with blood tests if you have any of the above symptoms, as a lower oxygen saturation level from a pulse oximeter can be slower to see the effects of the low iron and low haemoglobin levels. How does this relate to cancer? Hypoxia is a major contributing factor in the majority of malignant cancers (Muz, de la Puente, Azab, & Kareem Azab, 2022). Low oxygen levels alter cellular metabolism that can cause the cancer changes in healthy cells, as well as causing the dysfunctional blood supply around the cancer cells, increasing cancer cell signalling, causing spontaneous metastasis (spreading of the cancer to other parts of the body), development of a more aggressive cancer type, and reducing the effectiveness of typical medical cancer therapy treatments. But sadly, finding or addressing any hypoxia is not something that is a part of a normal medical cancer treatment or protocol. But this IS something that I look for and will include in my more holistic treatment plan where needed. Just taking iron supplements to improve haemoglobin or red blood cell levels isn't the answer to hypoxia. There are multiple root causes of low iron levels and hypoxia, which all need to be checked and confirmed or ruled out, before implementing a plan to fix the causes of the low iron and low circulation and low oxygen levels. However, you need to get your blood test results interpreted properly from an IIFP trained practitioner (via the Institute for Integrative and Functional Pathology) and not your GP. Finding and treating the hypoxia and iron deficiency anaemia isn't difficult and doesn't take too long! And people with chronic iron deficiency anaemia and hypoxia will start to feel improvements and reduction of symptoms quite quickly! Cancers are a complex and chronic result of multiple root causes and causative factors, which must all be found in each person, to improve whole body function, and to start to heal. Or you can, at least in part, prevent cancer development and progression by finding and treating any iron deficiency anaemia issues. If you have had a history of low iron levels, then you need this investigated further to find the causes of this in you, for prevention of long-term health issues, and for long-term resolution. Stay healthy! References: Muz, B., de la Puente, P., Azab, F., & Kareem Azab, A. (2022). The role of hypoxia in cancer progression, angiogenesis, metastasis, and resistance to therapy. Hypoxia (Auckland), 3: 83–92. doi: 10.2147/HP.S93413 More unnecessary fear-mongering on mainstream media - this time about Australian health authorities recommending that schools remove ham sandwiches from their menus due to an alleged risk of cancer from the ham... See the Sunrise video here - fb.watch/cNo_YV1owO/
Ironically the Cancer Council made this recommendation, but they have ignored the huge risks of cancer-causing chemicals in their own toxic sunscreens for years. I analysed their own sunscreens 6 years ago and I found 5 known cancer-causing chemicals in their products. Ham and other processed meats have been classified by the dodgy World Health Organisation as having an alleged cancer risk, based on questionable studies that lack any evidence of true causation of the ham causing cancer. I suggest they are blaming the wrong thing, as usual... by hypocrites who are causing the very same thing. A recent investigation by the Environmental Working Group (EWG) on the US Department of Agriculture data found that nearly 60% of kale samples tested were contaminated with a likely carcinogenic (cancer-causing) herbicide (EWG, 2022).
The toxic pesticide, known as DCPA or Dacthal, was classified by the US Environmental Protection Agency as a possible carcinogen in 1995, but only recalled by its manufacturer 10 years later in 2005 (but only on some crops), banned in the European Union in 2009, is STILL being used in the US on crops such as kale, broccoli, sweet potatoes, eggplant and turnips. Other leafy greens in the US were also found to be contaminated with the same chemical. And this was not the only chemical used on these plant crops. Kale production has increased by 56% in recent years due to more interest in their nutritional value. Dacthal is also being used in Australia for brassica vegetables (broccoli, cauliflower, kale, cabbage, spinach etc), legumes, alliums (onions, garlic, etc), potatoes, carrots and many other crop types (NuFarm, 2022). This information stresses the importance of knowing what you are eating, and what your foods are exposed to, such as pesticides, herbicides, and other chemicals. Just because someone is natural, green, or plant-based, doesn't mean it's going to be good for you. This is why certified organic foods or home grown vegetables can be healthier and safer for you to eat. Be healthy. References: Environmental Working Group (EWG). (2022).

Perhaps you shouldn't, as an independent investigation in the US found toxic amounts of cancer-causing benzene chemicals in many hand sanitiser products. Benzene is known to cause Leukaemia, a type of blood cancer.
An independent laboratory (Valisure) that tests drug products for safety tested 260 hand sanitiser products and found elevated levels of benzene in 21 of them (CBS New York, 2022). Benzene was still found in most of them, but within alleged "safe" limits, which might also be questionable. Some products did have no detectable benzene in them (Valisure, 2022). The US regulator of such products, the FDA, apparently relaxed their standards on benzene in products, which allowed companies to get away with adding more into hand sanitiser and not be investigated. So this is another warning message to always check the ingredients list of products you buy, whether it be food or washing or cleaning products, make-up, or anything that can come in contact with your skin. Check your hand sanitiser product ingredients and if there is any benzene in it, throw it out. Just using soap and water is enough to keep your hands clean. Be healthy! References: CBS New York.

Virotherapy, as it's called, isn't entirely new, but some new developments in research in Brisbane has found that injecting a genetically-modified common cold virus into Basal Cell Carcinomas (the most common type of skin cancer) cleared the cancers in 84% of cases, and reduced other cancers in the patients too. Virotherapy can work as it stimulates an increased immune system response in the body. And since your immune system is designed to find and kill cancer cells naturally, it makes sense that this therapy can reduce cancers. You can, of course, improve your immune system function against cancers naturally in many ways, with an improved nutrition intake, better sleep, improved lifestyle, reduced exposure to toxins and chemicals, and other factors - which is what I can help you with! https://www.abc.net.au/news/2020-10-14/common-cold-virus-shows-promise-as-cure-for-bcc/12759188 Introduction to the Gardasil vaccine The Gardasil vaccine has been considered to be a breakthrough vaccine for women and women's health, marketed incorrectly and somewhat ironically as "the cervical cancer vaccine", allegedly for the prevention of cervical cancer. But does it really do this? No! The Gardasil vaccine is not going to prevent cervical cancer, as it is an HPV vaccine - a vaccine against the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV), a viral infection that is mostly, but not completely, a sexually-transmitted disease. With over 100 HPV viruses in the wild, can this vaccine really prevent an HPV infection or even cervical cancer? Again, no! In 2007, the first Gardasil vaccine became available for public use, containing 4 strains of HPV - 2 which can cause genital warts, and 2 that may cause cervical cancer. Hence this version is now known as Gardasil 4. In 2018 a new Gardasil vaccine became available, with 9 strains of HPV viruses - still a long way short of the 100 possibles (WHO, 2019). The Gardasil vaccine was initially given only to girls of pre-teen or teenage years. In more recent times, teen boys are now recommended to get this vaccine too, as while they do not have a cervix, they too can carry the HPV vaccine and infect their sexual partners. This article will look at what you are not being told about this vaccine, why it is one of the most dangerous vaccines to ever come onto the market, and why you need to read this and confirm this information, BEFORE you inject your children with it... This is called "informed consent" - the right to know what you and your children are being injected with in this medical procedure, of the risks vs benefits, side effects and possible adverse outcomes of which there are many, so that you can make up your own minds as to whether you wish to submit your children to this almost untested vaccine, and the right to decline based on being given this information. Yes Gardasil is "almost untested" is actually true - it wasn't tested in a true scientific way, as explained in these referenced facts below. In this article and the following facts, I will refer to the original Gardasil vaccine as "Gardasil 4" to differentiate it from information from the new 2018 version of "Gardasil 9". The following is a summary of key points in the history, testing, and use of the Gardasil vaccines, including side effects and severe adverse reactions:
Risk factors for contracting HPV and development of cervical cancer Studies have shown that cervical cancer isn't only caused by the HPV virus. In fact, other causative factors must also occur for the development and progression of cervical cancer, especially:
Other factors which can increase the risks of HPV and cervical cancer include (Burd, 2003):
If these risk factors are identified and minimised, the risks of contracting HPV and it causing cervical cancer can be greatly reduced. All without a dangerous vaccine. Independent investigation into Gardasil 9 In 2019, an independent team of Italian scientists from a group called Corvelva, started investigations into many common vaccines and their ingredients. They reviewed the Gardasil 9 vaccine ingredients from several batches, looking at the genetics of the RNA and DNA of the pathogens and other ingredients in the vaccine. They found the following (Corvelva, 2019):
Clinical Observations In my clinical practice, I have seen many female patients who have presented with very strange symptoms that no doctor was able to find the cause of, or diagnose, or be able to treat to reduce their symptoms. My detailed questioning in my initial consultations picked up on the onset of their symptoms, which was around the start of their teen years. On intuition initially and lately from experience, I asked what may have happened at that time, or whether they had the Gardasil vaccine. In many cases, they said the symptoms appeared shortly after this vaccine. Sure this is what is known as “anecdotal evidence” but the published evidence referenced here, and from many more studies since the Gardasil vaccine became available, confirms that these side effects and adverse reactions are from the vaccine and are very real. Because doctors don't try to trace the root causes of health conditions, they don't know that Gardasil has these reactions. This can lead to the patient suffering for years to a decade or longer before being diagnosed, if at all. A very common ongoing adverse reaction I have seen in practice is a combination of chronic digestive complaints together with heart symptoms. The heart symptoms often present as a racing heart (tachycardia) which the person may or may not feel, or slow pulse (bradycardia), or arrhythmias (irregular heart beat), or having all of these - a fast heart beat becoming slow then racing again in quick succession. Heart rate testing can show a very wide range of beats, often a difference of 20+ beats per minute from low to high and low again when rested. Orthostatic testing of heart activity, of testing blood pressure and pulse when laying down, and immediately on standing, can show a steady BP but an even higher pulse rate on standing, and an overall difference in pulse of 30-40+ beats per minute. In teens who have these symptoms, many cannot tolerate any exercise, and some athletic teens have had to give up on their sports because of a sudden reduced performance after their Gardasil vaccination. Other related symptoms from the heart dysfunction include frequent fainting and dizziness, headaches, weakness and fatigue, chest pain, shortness of breath, poor thinking or low memory and concentration (NHS, 2019). Together with the irregular heart function, the same patients also have chronic digestive complaints, of pains, cramps, IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome), Ulcerative Colitis, hypochlorhydria (low stomach acid), chronic nausea, and other digestive complaints. The digestive system is affected together with the cardiovascular system, as both systems are controlled by nerves, or more particularly, branches of the autonomic nervous system. The dysfunction of these systems can suggest a diagnosis of Dysautonomia, or "dysfunctional autonomic nervous system". The particular dysautonomia diagnosis I have found as a direct result of the Gardasil vaccination is Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome or POTS. In my investigations of many patients with Gardasil reactions, I have diagnosed POTS from their symptoms, history, and orthostatic testing of their blood pressure and heart rate. I have referred patients to their GP for a formal testing and diagnosis, only to be told that they don't know what POTS is or who to refer to. Luckily, POTS can be diagnosed, treated and reversed, but not with medical interventions. It can be treated with nutritional medicine, lifestyle improvements, and herbal medicines. I have also seen cases of cervical cancer being diagnosed in women who tested negative for HPV, but some had the Gardasil vaccine (which is known to cause cervical cancer). They also had hormone imbalances, and other factors like stress and nutrient deficiencies. Conclusions This document is a summary of many published studies into the Gardasil vaccine, information from the manufacturer, official government statistics, information from drug regulators, and from my own clinical experience with patients who have had many side affects, adverse reactions and chronic health conditions resulting from the Gardasil vaccine. The Gardasil vaccine was not thoroughly tested, and not tested to accepted scientific protocols before being approved for use. Testing did not include using an inert placebo in the control group, which enabled the manufacturer to claim very little difference in side effects between the vaccine and an active placebo. This is an unconscionable act which was done deliberately to hide side effects in order to gain a fast approval. It also shows a lack of thoroughness of the drug regulators to not see this deliberate ploy of deception, prior to the vaccine being approved. The Gardasil vaccine does not do what it claims to do - to reduce incidences of cervical cancer in women. In many countries, including in Australia, cervical cancer incidences have increased every year since Gardasil was introduced. And any protection from antibodies has only a short lasting effect of 4 years. After this time, there is no immunity to HPV. Gardasil has been shown in studies to actually cause cervical cancer. Gardasil simply does not work. Gardasil causes many side effects, long-term health effects, and causes many deaths. One of its key reasons for this is the use of an aluminium adjuvant, used to heighten the immune response to producing antibodies, and many recipients still do not develop antibodies to HPV. Aluminium in the body is a neurotoxin - it damages nerves of the autonomic nervous system, to cause a great many symptoms and health issues, such as heart conditions and digestive conditions. HPV alone is not the only cause of cervical cancer - an imbalance in male and female hormones and a dysfunctional immune system are also required factors for the development and progression of cervical cancer. Improve the immune system function and improve the hormone imbalance and cervical cancer can be prevented or reversed, without needing the dangerous Gardasil vaccine. All parents of teenage children must be given full informed consent of all the risks of the Gardasil vaccine, including the chronic health conditions and reactions it can cause, including death. I do not see this information being given to parents or teens. Where there is a risk with a vaccine, and there are many with Gardasil, parents and teens must be fully informed and also allowed the right to decline this medical procedure. Luckily there are other options available to reduce the risks of this infection and to also reduce the risks of cervical cancer. Schools around the country (and in other countries too) are the target for government-funded mass vaccination programs for the Gardasil vaccine. All Year 7s in Australia are rounded up and taken somewhere in the school for this shot. Often, letters or forms by concerned parents to not get this vaccine are ignored by teachers and the health department staff who simply assume that all children will get the vaccine. It is best to inform your children of the dangers to this vaccine, and keep them home on the allocated day, or to avoid it by hiding during the time it is being done.
