I last posted several correlations to nervous system cancers but I just read about a substance that may serve as hope and as an explanation as to why alcohol consumption was one of the highest factors I correlated to gliomas.
It is a known fact that alcohol consumption increases the chances of breast cancer in women and that the combination of cigarette smoking and alcohol significantly increases the probability of head and neck cancer development.
While surfing on my mother's iPad I noticed that she found a good article while looking for a cure for me. Sad but true, mothers suffer with their kids no matter how old their kids are and keep researching to save them, thanks mom!
The article states that a substance called lithocholic acid has an amazing propriety: it kills neuroblastoma cells while sparing normal neuronal cells. The substance also killed cultured rat glioma cells and human breast cancer cells. A link to the scientific article is found below:
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21992775
The substance is a bile acid that acts as a detergent that makes fats soluble for absorption and is produced by bacteria in the colon through the reduction of chenodeoxicholic acid, one of four bile acids produced in the liver. It is insoluble in water but soluble in alcohol and is synthesized from cholesterol.
I am now going to excuse myself to share two personal stories that are leading to smoke, and where there is smoke there is fire.
When I lived in Pittsburgh a good friend of mine died of colon cancer and while his family searched for a cure his wife talked a lot about a treatment that used a very expensive juice maker that could save him. Unfortunately his case was fast and furious and his body gave up to the heavy chemo and radiation therapies, but two years later, through a high-school friend and later through a work contact that gave me a few DVDs, I became acquainted with the Gerson Therapy. I watched the movies and learned that the juice machine my friend's wife wanted was develop by a Nazi-time German doctor called Dr. Gerson, whose relatives now run a clinic in Mexico where they practice his treatment protocols.
To summarize and possibly bastardize the Gerson therapy the treatment consists of eating a lot of raw food that is in essence pressed raw - which according to Dr. Gerson provided the body with all the nutrients the body needed - let the liver remove toxins from the body, and send the toxins to the colon, where all the bad substances that entered the body are clean through an organic coffee infusion.
Yes, the Gerson Therapy sounds extremely odd and I need to mention that most patients that claimed to be cured under his treatment also underwent traditional treatment. I want to highlight to all the conspiracy theorists that think the drug companies are holding off cures that the most dangerous and deadly form of anti-conspiratory action is to avoid standard treatment protocols. As a personal friend to many researchers who devote their lives to find cures and as a patient nearly cured through traditional treatment with Temodar I highly recommend that you listen to your doctor and the drug companies, there are still a lot of great people that devote their lives to cure patients.
Getting back to lithocholic acid, it struck me that bacteria present in the colon produce a substance that may act as a deterrent to cancer cell proliferation and that an unorthodox Nazi-time German doctor who probably exposed numerous patients and possibly victims to his experiments somehow got to the colon as he searched for cancer cures. Back in an era when observation, trial and error were the only means to find cures to diseases it is incredible that both led to bacteria in the colon, just another example of what an amazing eco-system the human body is.
My proposal is that, possibly by solublilizing chenodeoxicholic acid, alcohol might be just reducing the production of litocholic acid and therefore reducing the body's natural ability to fight cancer.
I hope that researchers get to the same conclusion and quickly enable companies to manufacture a cure for cancer, we might just be watching a "cancer penicillin" come to market. Good luck!
