I personally visited Dr. Johanna Budwig in Germany in the year 2000. She passed away in 2003 at the age of 95 from a fall. Dr. Budwig was nominated 7 times for the Nobel Prize Dr.Budwig had over a 90% success rate with this protocol with all kinds of cancer patients over a 50 year period. Dr. Budwig worked with many patients who were terminally ill and some who had only hours to live. Dr. Budwig explained in her books that her healing plan works on improving the cells of the body. It doesn't matter where the cancer cells are located or what name if given to your cancer because the Budwig program gives cells what is needed in order for them to normalize in their functioning process. Her approach successfully treated the cause of all types of cancer, such as breast cancer, lung cancer, brain cancer, prostate cancer, Bone cancer, Carcinoma, bladder cancer, cervical cancer, esophageal cancer, stomach cancer, Leukemia, Hodgkin's disease, skin cancer, etc., and other common serious illnesses such as such as Arthritis, Asthma, Fibromyalgia, Diabetes, Blood Pressure, Multiple sclerosis, Heart Disease, Psoriasis, Eczema, Acne, and so on. She used a unique formula of cold pressed flaxseed oil and low fat cottage cheese with a little honey. Many people of heard of Dr. Budwig and may even have tried to follow her recipe. However unfortunately there is a lot of misinformation on her protocol on the Internet and if it is not followed exactly as she discovered and explained in her research the results could be very disappointing. As I obtained copies of all her research and have shared it with many others todate I would be happy to share her exact formula with any who request it on this forum. I often write about Dr. Budwigs formula for a local English Newspaper here in Southern Spain.

Don't forget Asparagus and Garlic.. Asparagus is packed with anti cancer molecules.. And garlic slows the cell division down to the point where the immune system cleans the cancer cells up. If you add some Cayenne to this mix, with time it should come right. The Urine will smell on Asparagus but that's nothing. Fresher the better for the veg. And hotter the better for the cayenne. Cancer cells can't stand it.

Hi Gavin, thanks for all the good advice! One question about cayenne pepper, I was using as much as possible in my food and drinking a bit of Tabasco in water once in a while as suggested on this site but now I read in a book that cayenne pepper makes the intestine porous causing leaky gut syndrome. Now I am confused.... But then I am in a permanent state of confusion as far as health goes! Eating asparagus is great advice but at least here the asparagus season is very short, maybe everywhere? After that one can buy them tinned and the green ones frozen, no idea whether those are of any interest as far as health goes!

Francisca, I am as confused as you are about all the info out there. I'm still reading and reading and hoping to find answers, and also, I have an appointment with a homeopath finally!

A few things I did find out are: 1. Cayenne is useful in smaller amounts. A big capsuleful (I fill them myself) gave my husband heart palpitations and strange feelings for quite a few hours, but a small capsuleful is fine.

2. I experimented with cutting out all grains and starches for a few weeks, and the only difference I noticed was that my white/geografic tongue, is now pink and normal. Anything else I was "testing" for, stayed the same.

3. When I was cutting out grains, I added more nuts and seeds than usual to my diet (I did take animal protein but not anywhere near what low-carb diets recommend) and after a few days got a BIG breakout of canker sores - I had thought those days were over! So now I am fairly sure that nuts and seeds must be eaten in moderation (maybe because they are concentrated foods).

4. So basically for now my diet is mainly fruits and veggies (raw and cooked), some whole grain foods, and some animal protein (like once in a day or two, some eggs or fish. Once a week some chicken and meat). I'll be adding back my bit of almonds and flaxseeds and sesame seeds to my morning smoothie when these cankers are gone. Thank G-d they are on their way out now!

5. Writing all this has made it clear to me that "everything in moderation" is the key, and each person has to find his/her "moderation" level!!

Hi Francesca, I'm pretty sure the effects of Cayenne are accumulative so, a little regularly is probably the best way to go, I've been smearing it into the butter along with some turmeric, at least once a day with no ill effects.. Probably about a fith of a teaspoonful for both.. Then adding some juienned ginger. In fact just using it like a condiments.

I have had prostrate cancer and leukemia for over 20 years and have kept both in control with the Budwig diet. One thing many have overlooked is that the purpose of mixing the cottage cheese and oil is to make the oil water soluble so it can be absorbed. I don't know how many people I have talked to who do not add any water. I use 1-2 TBS flax seed oil with 3 heaping TBS of cottage cheese 3-4 large strawberries and enough water to make as thick as thin milkshake. (if you use a Magic Bullet Mixer this makes 1 container full) if berries are not to sweet add a little stevia (stevia by the way is only sweetener that is alkaline)

Good Health To All,

There is a YouTube video in which Charlotte Gerson explains how her father discovered that, whenever a patient followed the diet and got rid of their tumor and then included fats back into their diet, the tumor would return. The only fat that didn't cause this reaction was flax oil.

There's a very informative site (non-commercial) called 'Stop the Thyroid Madness'. Check the part about Adrenals because they can be part of the problem. I have had a poorly diagnosed thyroid problem myself and found this very useful. Good luck and stay well. Nickie

Sandie - Google "Budwig Diet Natural Therapies" and 'Budwig Center' will come up. You will find the recipe there. You will need a hand-held electric STICK MIXER, because it's almost impossible to get the flaxseed oil to blend thoroughly with the quark/cottage cheese with an ordinary electric whisk, and to do it in a liquidiser would be far too wasteful. My first stick mixer was a dud, but I'm very happy with my present one - a Bosch 600 watt.

Do also look up Father Romano Zago's aloe vera cancer cure. I see no reason why you shouldn't do both.

And don't forget apricot pits (laetrile or B17), to be used with EXTREME CAUTION as they contain cyanide. Again, look them up.

My prayers are with you.

An emulsion is created when you can no longer see the oil as you mix it with the cottage cheese. Use a regular dinner plate and put the cottage cheese on it, spread out. Pour the oil over the cottage cheese and begin working the mixture up with a fork. Continuously smash and swirl the fork into the mixture until the oil disappears and a creamy emulsion is obtained. This should take maybe 5-minutes. The cottage cheese will become much finer in consistency during the process.

Many today use an electric mixer or a little hand-held electric whisk-blender and combine the cheese with the oil in a mixing bowl; it certainly is faster with that tool but it is not necessary.

❤ Digi ❤

For your Dad's pain consider cayenne, turmeric, aloe vera, sulfur/MSM/sulfur containing foods like wasabi, horseradish, mustard, cabbage and garlic, CBD/hemp/cannabis, vitamin E (natural, not synthetic).

I would like to suggest you start by giving him aloe vera inner leaf gel (fresh if possible) and wasabi (the cheap horseradish kind in the little tube is fine) as much as he will tolerate. Also he should have plenty of clean water. And he should lay in direct sunlight during midday/noon (10 to 15 minutes per day) with his bare back and/or chest in the direct sunlight. And get lots of rest.

The aloe can be blended into water or juice and given as a drink often as he likes. The green outer leaf contains latex that may irritate the kidneys, so probably only give the inner gel for now.

The wasabi is very hot and may make his stomach uncomfortable which can be reduced by giving it with food or some coconut oil to dilute the strong nutrients in it. Maybe try a quarter teaspoon once a day with food and gradually increase to probably not more than a tablespoon per day as it is very spicey. Let him tell you how much to give.

If he were me I would start with that. You can look up the health properties of aloe and wasabi to learn how they benefit the body. Aloe is known to be a pain reliever. Cannabis/marijuana is a pain reliever and is believed to cure cancer when injested as oil or food, though it may be more difficult for you to obtain it because of laws. Opiates are believed to reduce the function of the central nervous system, which I suspect would also reduce his ability to fight the cancer, so probably avoid opiates. And coffee/caffeine will probably also need to be avoided.

Zinc, and vitamins C, E, and D boost the immune system which may enable his body to naturally rid the cancer without fancy treatments (though I would not wait to find out but would do other treatments immediately). The body naturally looks for cancer cells and destroys them every day, so he is probably lacking those essential nutrients.

People who are exposed to more toxins (like smokers) use detoxifiing nutrients like vitamin C and E and sulfur faster than usual and need to intake those more to keep up with the body's need for them. If they are unavailable lots of things go wrong in the body - such as cancer.

I'd like to suggest massage and castor oil packs but it may spread the cancer if his body is just too weak and toxic in general (which may be why he is sick). So ensuring the "eliminative functions" - the detox functions such as the bowels, kidneys and liver - are able to function as well as possible may be the thing to begin with.

I am not a medical professional. This is from the reading and researching I have done. You should begin researching, too. You will see that there is hope for your Dad. If your Dad has energy he may feel better and more optomistic if he helps you research. He must have been quite a hard worker in his life and loves you very much.

❤ Hello Digi!! ❤ Blessings to your Dad!! You must be so scared and worried.

How did he get sick? Was he a smoker? Did he work with asbestos? Round-up weed killer?

If it is from asbestos we may not be the people you need to be talking to, he might require a specialist. If he is a smoker he should stop, at the very least until the cancer is gone.

Probably the first step is to make sure his "eliminative functions" are working well. And continue to work well.

This means plenty of rest, wholesome food and clean water, clean air, sunshine. Things like aloe vera, chlorophyll (chlorella, spirulina, leafy green foodsb etc.), castor oil, coffee enema's, magnesium, diatomaceous earth, chanca piedra, psyllium husk powder, vitamin C can improve his "eliminative functions".

Baking soda has been considered effective for curing cancer by reducing the body's acidity:

Hydrogen peroxide is used carefully in very specific ways:

Start researching :) There is plenty of hope.

I am praying for your Dad's speedy recovery. ❤ When he is well come tell us what worked :)

The best and most proven cure for cancer is the Budwig Diet. Cottage cheese mixed with flax oil blended together with a hand blender. Also coconut oil as well is also known to cure cancer.

Cancer is an anaerobic disease and cannot thrive in an oxygen rich environment, Nobel Prize winner Otto Warburg discovered in the 1930's. Johanna Budwig a famous German Biochemist used Warburg's discovery to create a cancer cure and it is as follows: 4 Tablespoons of Organic Flaxseed Oil mixed with 8 Ounces of Organic Cottage Cheese. The oil is loaded with electrons and electrons attract lots of oxygen. The protein in the cheese acts as a vehicle carrying the oil and oxygen to every cell in your body, flooding the cells with oxygen. Since cancer CANNOT thrive in an oxygen-rich environment, it falls apart. The side effect: You feel wonderful! When you mix the flaxseed oil and the cottage cheese together it is important that the oil "vanish"; then it is ready to eat. If you put the oil and cheese in a regular blender and add a couple of ounces of SKIM milk, it makes it easier to mix. Keep all ingedients refrigerated until eating. Johanna Budwig was used by the Lord to cure thousands of people with cancer, including many of whom had Stage 4 Cancer, some of whom were at death's door. I found out about this cure while doing research on a book about natural cures that the Lord is having me write. About 21 months ago the Lord had me pray and fast about the book and also about cures for different disease, including cancer. The day after praying and fasting I went to a local college where I was doing my research, got on the computer and within a couple of minutes the above cure was on the computer screen. Praise The Lord! I have told many people who have cancer or who family members or friends have cancer about this cure and the feedback I am getting back is wonderful. Two stage four cancer patients are doing wonderfully and a friend of mine who had an aggressive form of breast cancer, in her latest tests cannot find any cancer.

I forgot to mention on my 11-27-07 cancer cure that I posted what type of organic cottage cheese you should buy. You should buy the 1% or non-fat organic cheese to use in the cancer cure along with the organic flaxseed oil.

Follow-up on 11-27-07 flaxseed oil/cottage cheese cancer cure.When I first made this post I wasn't sure about how long the post should be so I didn't add the following: It is also important to stop eating foods that are unhealthy and that help to cause cancer especially partially hydrogenated oils(trans fats,) chemical preservatives, food dyes, aspartame and any other chemical sugar substitute, msg, public water(chlorine,) farmed-raised fish especially salmon, meats and poultry that have antibiotics and growth hormones, sugar, white flour, high fructose corn syrup, and Fast Food. Also stop using your microwave oven. Some foods to ADD to your diet would be as much organic food as you can afford especially broccoli and carrots(juicing carrots would be great,) nuts, beans, seeds, and of course other vegetables and fruits. Plenty of non-public water is also helpful. Spices such as garlic, ginger, and curry are excellemt. Finally, a colon cleanse is also beneficial.

How much of the flaxseed oil/cottage cheese blended mixture do most people try to have each day? Does the blended mixture stay well for a couple of days in the refrigerator?

The FOCC mixture has to be eaten straight away. All ingredients need to be organic.

The actual quantities are 6 tablespoons Cottage Cheese (Quark) to 3 tablespoons Flax Seed Oil. You need a immersion blender (stick) to mix. Add a couple of tablespoons of low fat milk to make a very creamy mixture then add some honey, fruit, nuts, ground flax seeds.

There is a complete protocol you can find on yahoo groups

http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/FlaxSeedOil2/

It has the complete protocol and videos on how to make the mixture.

I have never had cancer and don't want it. I have read all of Johanna Budwigs books and they are facinating. She recommends eating this mixture once a day as a preventative measure. I have been eating this once a day either for breakfast or as a desert and it is delicious! I would recommend that everyone look this up by following the link to the yahoo group that someone posted here.She also recommended saurkraut juice first thing in the a.m., which is why everyone is having great success with the acv, I believe. And sunlight, everyday. No sunscreen! You don't need to bake in it, just a healthy amount of sunshine. Light excercise like walking, is beneficial (if you are not too sick). And vegetables, vegetables, vegetables! Both raw and cooked. I eat about 8 ounces of protein (meat) a day because I feel better when i do, but I am a healthy person, if you are sick, no meat that includes fish. I recommend that people buy one of her books, the woman was brilliant! She was not only a scientist, but a pharmacist, doctor and more, because she needed first hand knowledge of these sectors. I hope this helps someone who is desperate for answers. Lisa

fran from montreal, I can hear the deep need in your message! You need to find out about the Budwig Diet.Read the information at www.cancertutor.com/Cancer/Budwig.html.

Dr. Johanna Budwig was the foremost expert in the world on fats and oils. She was able to heal people even from their deathbeds using flaxseed oil and cottage cheese. (It's all about the electrons!) She also recommends veggies and fruit. (no meats, animal fats, or sugar.) She lived into her 90's. and was a nominee for the nobel prize many times. Earth Clinic should be all over this one. It helps all sorts of diseases, Heart Infarction. arthritis, cancer etc, and is good for athletic performance and in fact, the whole family. I have done oil pulling for only a short time and it has helped the floaters in my eye get smaller & less dark. (they were the result of a burst capillary.)
