Video Length: 1:08:30 Download Interview Transcript Visit the Mercola Video Library Dr. Stanislaw Burzynski and his son, Dr. Gregory Burzynski, employ novel gene-target therapies in the treatment of cancer, which is the leading cause of death in the US. Born in the early 1940's in Poland, Dr. Stanislaw Burzynski was trained as a biochemist and a physician, and has been developing a treatment called antineoplastons over the past 35 years. He's also the Founder, President and Chairman of the Burzynski Institute, located in both Houston, Texas, and Stafford.
Twelve different antineoplastons are currently known, of which five have gone through clinical trials. The antineoplastons were initially obtained from blood. For a time they were then extracted from urine, but they've now been using synthetic antineoplastons since 1980.
We want to eliminate glutamine. Glutamine is an amino acid. It's great if you want to be a bodybuilder or if you don't have cancer, but if you do have cancer, for the most part, we encourage our patients to stay away from glutamine because that unfortunately is going to be one of the essential ingredients to cancer growth." Certainly, the diet depends on the context of the medications we are using for the patient. Certain dietary ingredients are going to support the medications which we prescribe. Some others may neutralize it. We have to take under consideration which medication we prescribe. And then make sure that the patient is not taking supplements or dietary ingredients that can fight these medications. This is also established for every patient."
It was extremely difficult to practice under such circumstances, but the clinic was open every day It was very tough. I remember waking up early in the morning, coming to the clinic at 5 or 6 in the morning, seeing patients then going to court at 8 o'clock, spending the entire day in court until 5 pm, then coming back to the clinic, seeing patients, taking care of medical records well after midnight. This was day after day. It was an extremely difficult situation but we went through it, and we won. At this moment, we have very good cooperation with FDA. We are working together and hopefully we will have successful phase 3 clinical trials." Amazingly, this legal fight dragged on for 14 years! It's hard to imagine anyone making it through such an ordeal. Most people don't. As for the cost, Dr. Burzynski describes it as "tremendous." After factoring in the actual legal expenses and the lost revenue, the tally comes to about $3 million. In addition, the FDA and Federal government allegedly spent about $60 million on the litigation alonejust to appropriate his patents for a pharmaceutical company! The pharmaceutical company in question eventually went bankrupt after Dr. Burzynski won the case. According to Dr. Burzynski, the full story will be detailed in an upcoming documentary.
Final Thoughts
His challenges certainly serve as a sobering illustration of the kind of courage required to really make advances in this area. In essence, anyone with the guts to try will usually have to pay a steep price for stepping on the toes of drug companies and threatening their future bottom line. Much of the resistance against alternative and complementary cancer strategies such as the protocol developed by Dr. Burzynski really flies in the face of common sense. Conventional medicine purports to be beholden to science-based medicine, yet it resists and denies solid science-based evidence again and again. Still, pioneers such as Dr. Burzynski and his son keep moving forward; laying the groundwork for the inevitable paradigm shift. "To sum it up, I think the 21 century is going to be known for personalized medicine and also preventing certain diseases in that sense," Dr. Burzynski says. "I hope with all the tools we have, we'll get really great results."

My mother can attest to this. In 1993 she was diagnosed with Stage IV Non-Hodgkins T-cell lymphoma and told that they'd do radiation and chemo but it wasn't likely to help and that maybe she had 6 months; it was hard to be sure. Instead, after much research, we selected Burzynski's clinic. He was thrilled to have someone who wasn't already depleted by standard ineffective therapies like chemo. She went to see him in his Houston clinic and after the first six months, we got so blase that it was like, ho hum, how much did the tumor shrink this time? It was a given she was improving. That was 18 years ago and she's since lived to see her son married and give her two grandchildren. There's no question she owes her life to Dr. Stanislaw Burzynski who persevered bravely when the AMA and other major forces were trying to shut him down. Cancer, after all, is a big money-making business and there's no room at the top for someone with the temerity to actually cure cancer. NIH studies back up his wonderful results and a book was even written (can't remember title offhand) by an author who set out to debunk him and ended up becoming a convert. Thank you, Dr. Burzynski! And thank you, Dr. Mercola, for bringing him further into the public eye.
My father had Stage IV Non-Hodgkins T-cell lymphoma and beat it with radiation chemotherapy. He is alive over 20 later. Chemo is not a death sentence and does work. It saves thousands of lives every year.

I'm so glad we have crimnial organizations like the FDA, to make sure our safety is always first priority. Thank god its ok to consume fluoride and aspartame...for a minute there, I thought they were unsafe. But the FDA says its ok, and that's good enough for me. I can't get enough tap water and diet drinks. What could be better? Oh, how about diet drinks made with fluoridated water? Doctors, FDA, Big Pharma, chemical companies, fund raisers, pink ribbons, hospitals...should all be put on trial, for the pain and suffering they've created, putting health aside in order to make a buck.
SUNSET: HOW RIGHT YOU ARE. CRIMINAL ORGANIZATION IS A FITTING DESCRIPTION. FEAR THE MAFIA, NO FEAR THE FEDERAL DEATH ADMINISTRATION, AND ALL THOSE EDUCATED FOOLS THEY EMPLOY. WATCH THEM MAKE EVEN BIGGER FOOLS OF THEMSELVES AS THEY TRY TO CENSOR THE TRUTH, AND NEW INNOVATIVE FORMS OF TREATMENT. I AM GLAD TO SEE THE LIST IS GROWING, AS FAR AS DOCTORS BUCKING THE SYSTEM, AND STEPPING OUTSIDE THE NORM TO FIND A CURE.

curious 7 It's not enough to say "I didn't know" anymore. There is plenty of truthful information, life savers like Dr. Mercola, combined with common sense, out there. If you and I can see the dangers of allopathy, why can't they? In this world of luciferian globalists, health will always mean sickness, war with always equal peace and education equals ignorance. I could see doctors and nurses claiming ignorance 40 years ago...but not now. Choosing the same path Susan G. Komen was on will have you definitely running from the cure, and will have the same outcome she had. When will people learn that the cure is the problem, not the disease.

Criminal organization is too mild a term for big Pharma. By suppressing information about nutrition, controlling medical schools, medical journals, Television, newspapers, magazines, legislatures, both state and national, the White House, and of course using the carrot and the stick on MD's, they commit nothing less than the greatest crime against humanity ever perpetrated. They are responsible for 90% of all deaths in this country, a staggering 3 million premature deaths a year. As Marshal Mcluhan said, "only small secrets need protection, big secrets are kept by PUBLIC INCREDULITY".
My dad had this therapy over 18 yrs. ago.He was a grade 3 nonhodgekins lymphoma and give 6months to 2 years to live before this treatment. They love Dr. B and actually went to D.C to lobby for him in the 1990s. Highly recommend this treatment. my dad had no side effects.
Dr. Julian Whitaker summed it up very well about the sad state of affairs, "How could the U.S. Patent Office be corrupted to the point that they issue patents on medical therapies that have already been patented and issue them to someone who had nothing to do with their discovery or use? And how could the Patent Office then assign fraudulent patents to some of the most powerful institutions in American government? And imagine, all of this was being done while these same government agencies were spending millions of the taxpayers' dollars trying to put Dr. Burzynski in jail so that he could not fight the criminal theft of his discovery. Well, what about the ten million patients who died of cancer over the last twenty years? The majority of them could have been saved if the government had not blocked the therapy that they knew could save them."
For me, this story is one of the many reasons to support alternative sites such as Dr. Mercola's. If we don't collectively speak up for responsible, fair and objective medicine and against unethical practices and practitioners then who will?
WHERE IS THE SUPER BIG, 'CANCER SOCIETY' IN ALL OF THIS? WHY IS IT NOT FINNACIALLY SUPPORTING THESE DOCTORS? What does the cancer society do with all the trillions of dollars it collects every hour, everywhere???????????????
It pays the administrators and their expenses. Very little ends up going to support cancer research, which is why I don't donate to cancer fundraisers or participate in the walks, runs or theatrics of the color pink.

The US government agency National Cancer Institute has a budget of $4.86 billion to fund research. According to Guidestar, the American Cancer Society has revenues exceeding $400 million with the CEO earning a $1.2 million salary.

Immagine. If just half of that money was spent towards prevention. How much better off we will all be. So much misery around the world this cancer is causing. I say TO THE CS: STOP ALL THIS RESEARCH SHARADE AND START SPENDING THIS MONEY TOWARDS PREVENTION. That is the only sane cure the world is crying for.

Part of it apparently is protecting the industry and part of it is just closed minded arrogance. This long essay explains some of the reasons and gives some history of western medicine. www.ahealedplanet.net/medicine.htm

@MdinaBoysSchool - The American Cancer Society is the most corrupt and bogus of all charities. Less than 10 cents of every dollar donated goes to research and none of it is done by the society itself. They cull published research info and regurgitate it to the masses. That's it. The rest of the money goes to salaries and administrative costs which includes an enormous amount of advertising and the printing of material to perpetuate the myths. The people who offer free rides to patients needing treatment are all volunteers as are most who run the supposrt groups and organize the walks. These people are all brainwashed into thinking they are working for the "cure" and truly believe they are. Conventional cancer treatment is an industry that cannot allow itself to be threatened. From the Pharma drugs used to manufacturing of the diagnostic equipment to the techs, specialty nurses and wards it's the most finacially lucrative of all health care. Oncologists are the highest paid specialists and have the priveledge to mark up the chemo drugs dispensed to whatever they want as the IV drips cannot be done anywhere but their offices. Their cost can be less than a hundred dollars for the drug and they will charge several thousand for one visit/treatment. Why should they or anyone give any of this up? Some do believe and have helped people get their cancer into remission since some cancers are responsive, but their success feeds into the public's belief of conventional therapy and hope and that it can't be done any other way. I personally know a regional director who works for the American Cancer Society and when I mentioned prevention and questioned the Society not promoting whole toxin free foods and a toxin free lifestyle, I was met with a long silence. This was five years ago and we haven't spoken since.

Anfurther thought on Btandywine"s post - Even the oncloogisrs know their treatments are fraudulent and would refuse chemo if they were to contract cancer

Curcumin is certainly the king of NF-kappaB inhibitors with 180 studies indicating its role in down-regulating this key modulator of inflammation www.greenmedinfo.com/.../nf-kappab-inhibitor
Dr. Burzynski makes the point that while curcumin has potent anti-cancer properties, it is poorly absorbed by the body. To make it more bioavailable, Dr. Burzynski mentions that they combine curcumin with "piperine." Piperine is the spicy alkaloid ingredient in black pepper. So, adding a little black pepper to your meals along with curcumin or tumeric (which contains lots of curcumin) should greatly enhance the absorption of the curcumin.

Thank you Dr. Mercola for posting this piece on Dr. Stanislaw and his cancer treatment work. I too can personally attest to the great efforts being made in Texas by this doctor and his team. My husband was diagnosed with a brain tumor(astrocytoma) years ago. After a couple of rounds of conventional chemotherapy, eventually followed by weeks of radiation treatment which had no effect other than to debilitate him terribly, I began to research alternative therapies. I live in Toronto and our attending oncologist recommended a further round of chemotherapy. We chose Dr. Stanislav's treatment instead which meant we would travel to Houston for a short but intensive training session on how to administer the round-the-clock antenioplaston IV treatment at home when we returned. To say that the treatment process was challenging and required dedication on both the part of the patient and caregiver would be an understatement. However we persevered. The story gets complicated after this but suffice it to say that every doctor I encountered after my husband was hospitalized was dismissive of the treatment including refusing to contact the attending physician in Houston for support in treating my husband. Repeated followup MRI scans did in fact demonstrate that the tumor had shrunk since beginning the antineioplaston therapy, something which our attending physician tried to explain away as an artifact due to the resulting brain swelling. The lack of support by our medical community was completely disheartening. Sadly my husband did not make it due to complications which ensued after his hospitalization, which I am certain in large part were the result of the hospital medical staff's unwillingness to consult Dr. Stanislaw's team for follow up. This "holier than thou" attitude by the conventional medical community results in preventable deaths...and MUST STOP!
Unless you got an autopsy you will not know 100% what killed your husband...suffice to say, you are dealing with psychopathic people in positions of power...everyone at the top is of the 'tribe' or their cohorts...no offense...just bring up the truth: Search 'I AM THE WITNESS', you got a lot to learn! (>_<)

My wife was diagnosed with a egg sized "glioblastoma multiforme" (brain tumor)back in Oct. 2001 (just after 9/11). She had brain surgery and opted for Dr. B's clinic rather than undergo the standard "chemo/radiation" route. We spent 3 weeks in Houston as they trained me how to administer their antineoplaston chemo to her thru a pump into a catheter to her heart. I was her "caregiver" for 7 months and it was the hardest job I ever had. She passed away 2/31/02 in a nearby care center during her daily p/t, with me about 3 feet away from her. The autotopsy Dr. told me that she "had no cancer cells in her body" and "the dead tumor mass pressure on her pulmonary control center caused her to die of pulmonary arrest." I would like to reccomend Dr. B to you and yours as opposed to the "conventional" route. We were about $35K out of pocket since Medicare and most insurance dont (or didnt) cover his "alternative" therapy. As I recall, the "antineoplastons" are dervied from "sheep urine" (real or synthetic) and to this day I still get an occasional whiff of it at my dinner table where I prepared her daily doses. From what I know, if I were diagnosed with the big "C", I would go to Houston FIRST, not as a "last resort".
Laigman, I work as an oncology nurse and I have seen A LOT over the years and I am completely with you on this. I don't think I would ever submit my body to conventional, allopathic cancer treatment, nor would I want my loved ones to undergo it either. It is a shame (and a sham) that insurance or medicare
doesn't pay for alternative treatments. Most people that are ignorant about what it's really all about will choose the conventional treatment because they will believe it's the safest most secure route for them. The fact that insurance will not pay deters people because 1) many people cannot really afford alternative treatments and 2) they think that alternatives must not be very safe other wise insurance would be paying for them. It's very sad when I see patients that I know don't stand a snowball's chance in hell to be cured choose the conventional treatment. I definitely would NEVER choose conventional treatment if it's stage 4 with metastasis. When the diagnosis is most hopeless, I would definitely say go for the alternative because at least that way you would have some chance of a cure or remisson of some sort. They almost always tell them they can help them though, even the most hopeless cases they will give them hope. I see it all the time.

The BURZYNSKI movie was an amazingly shocking story. It shows that BIG PHARM will NOT ALLOW credit for the cure for cancer to ONE MAN and they make it very clear. What I never understand is how Greed can come before compassion. If you ever have the opportunity to see the BURZYNSKI Movie you won't be able to stop watching.
Wow, $60 million of OUR tax-payer money went to try to ruin this man and steal his terrific work... really makes you want to pay taxes, doesn't it?! Ugh.
We really need to start asking more questions about how our gov't. Spends our money,just as we would with any employee. If we don't like the service, they should be fired, just like we all can be fired. Time to end the double standard between gov't and the rest of society.

God Bless this wonderful man for his courage and his tenacity through the witch hunt of Big Pharma and FedGov! I remember the trials he was undergoing as they were in the news back then - they tried to crucify this trailblazing hero! I wait for the day the whole lot of them...Big Pharma, the FDA, etc. are all brought to trial on mass murder charges because they are as guilty in so much death and destruction as those who pull a trigger except their victims number in the millions. Their modus operandi has been going on for far too many decades and too many millions of people are gone - a result of their fraudulent research, the lying, etc. It's also obvious that by trying, as in this case to steal Dr. B's ideas, they show themselves for what they are - CRIMINALS!! There can be no other solution for the whole evil lot of them!
"I wait for the day the whole lot of them...Big Pharma, the FDA, etc. are all brought to trial on mass murder charges" Don't wait - make it happen! Instead of talking about it/commenting about it - let's DO something about it. WE pay for THEM to be in business, we can take them down just as easy. All we need to do is get together & demand, it is our constitutional right.

CELL PHONES & Brain Tumors On the phase 2 & 3 clinical trials, Dr. Burzynski stated that ".....currently, our efforts are directed to those patients with malignant brain tumors...." This reminded me that CNN's Dr. Sanjay Gupta has a show on this weekend about CELL PHONES and the current research into whether they can cause brain tumors. According to Dr. Gupta, the data showed people who used a cell phone 10 years or more doubled the risk of developing a glioma, a type of brain tumor. The show airs today, Saturday, 7:30 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. ET and tomorrow, Sunday at 7:30 a.m. ET. Read about the study here: thechart.blogs.cnn.com/2011/05/20/gupta-cell-phones-brain-tumors-and-a..
Malfunctioning genes didn't just malfunction! They were epi-genitically methylated/acetylated or oxidized/eroded by OXIDATIVE STRESS! The overall key to reversing cancers and most other diseases is raising electron presence/charge and raising pH. Then oxygen can penetrate cells to encourage mitochondria to produce more electrons,...genetic expression can be restored. Some of the big causes of oxidative stress are bad fats which produce weak membrane charge, improper electrolyte mineral balances, acid-forming oxidized foods with low antioxidant content, free radical generating toxins and pathogens noted by Islander above, unrelenting immune response/inflammation and un-serene emotions. Curcumin is an exceptional antioxidant as is Vitamin D but so are all the other electron rich nutrients noted by Dr. Mercola. Omega 3s and appropriate saturated fats, Mg, K, S, bicarbonates, earthing, all antioxidant phyto-pigments, proper breathing and a joyful self-responsible personality independent of externalized authority/religions. The problem ultimately resides in our misapplied shortcut technologies combined with an unrelenting corporately complicit media erecting a delusional collective consciousness. Oxidative stress is destroying the entire biosphere. See my bio/website.
This point is more important than this whole article! Working with damaged genes is after-the-fact, and revolves around complicated factors (which genes are affected and what is the specific treatment for each malfunctioning gene type). Other cancer treatments actually cure cancer also, and are ignorant of genetics, but work the cure with a combination of omission of toxic substances, introduction of a healthy diet, and a healthy attitude. I'm not saying these considerations of genetics is irrelevant, just that to put it as a first line of cure is ignoring the cause of cancer, which, as you say, is oxidative stress. And as you also say, removal of oxidative stress is a relatively simple process of removing stressors (damaging food and toxic chemicals) and restoring a primitive diet that has always been high in anti-oxidants.

Piperine is an extract from black pepper and can help the body absorb up to 60% more from different nutrients.
I have been following Dr. Mercola since I first found him sometime in 2000 - 2002. What a tremendous gift he has given us with this web-site where I have learned so much. I had earlier made a note to research piperine and then saw your post. I am interested in using Tumeric as a supplement, and have in the past, but that was before I learned from this web-site that the rate of absorption is extremely low. Can you tell me if piperine is available, or I wonder if it would work to take turmeric with black pepper? You mentioned "different nutrients", so it would seem to make sense to make piperine a regular part of supplementation? Thank you so much for your help. Cynthia
Mark as Spam Posted On 5/21/2011 10:26:54 AM
Most experts are NOT recommending the use of piperine and curcumin as it has some downsides and I would NOT recommend it. We are working on some alternatives and are doing some clinical research with cancer patients. However this really is only a major issue with cancer. If you are using turmeric as a spice there is no reason this should be an issue for you. Just use a high quality turmeric supplement like the one we sell in our store. If you struggle with cancer we hope to have a highly effective curcurmin extract once we finish our testing.

What my research says is there is no one cure for cancer, and various causes. One continued discussion is the absorbability of different nutrients. Dr. Revici used fish oil and treated inflammation and pain with customizing Ph by diet, Dr. Hannah Budwig used flaxseed oil with sulphurated proteins, etc. Dr. Hulda Clark studied parasites which not only create inflammation with their waste and larvae cases left in organs, but deplete nutrients. Detoxing with organic coffee enemas and sodium? alginate for heavy metals and using pancreatic enzymes is part of Nick Gonzalez's approach. Vitamin D I believe is best received naturally by sun, and maybe indicates the increase of flu, etc. in winter. Some meds today create sun sensitivity, and of course kill gut bacteria and imbalance the immune system, while toxifying the system. So much to absorb. We all should be biochemists, lol. I see a future where people may finally begin to focus on prevention, which will be about diet, exercise, sun, detoxing and using non-toxic cleaning products, safer building products and personal items, etc. I like sites like 101 cookbooks that encourage the use of whole foods, which of course tend to avoid the GMO that is in 80% of our foods. Perhaps more people will begin tending to their own organic gardening...or join co-ops. Challenging
universe...

Piperine needs to be used with caution. It has horrible laxative effects for some people and can also cause nausea and stomach/intestinal irritation. Regular black pepper used in high concentraion can also do this.

How about just banning all the cancer causing foods and drugs!
More effective would be a ban on the over 100,000 chemicals/toxins/pollutants/carcinogens in our environment, from pesticides like Imidachloprid and Methyl Iodide sprayed on our crops, to Tris in fireproofed children's pajamas, to the offgassing from our sheetrock, carpeting, upholstery, and of course that "new car smell."
Nah, forget it, it's way too late. DDT is still found in mother's milk, despite its being banned in the U.S. in 1972.

This is a great testimonial for treating cancer or any other disease for that matter, on an individualized basis. It is however, not a new concept. The basis for Homeopathic medicine has been around for over 200 years and its basic premise is individualized treatment for the person, not the disease, per se. The treatment stimulates the immune system to heal itself. Homeopathic treatment has had great success with treating individuals with cancer,as well as so many other conditions, but unfortunately, it is not widely known and certainly not accepted or acknowledged in this country. I'm glad to see doctors who will take a risk outside the known treatment protocols in the effort to assist their patients.
I am interested in donating money to Dr. Burzynski research. Where can I send my donation!
We took my Mom to the Burzynski clinic in April 2010 to be treated for a GBM (glioblastoma multiforme), the most lethal, aggressive brain tumor in existence. The FDA had recently ruled that before receiving Burzynski's antineoplaston treatment, one must go through traditional therapies (surgery, chemo, and radiation) and fail, i.e., the tumor comes back. We weren't aware of this new rule. You can't imagine how disheartening this was for us to hear. My mom passed away after a year of going through all the traditional treatments and "failing." We never got a chance to use Burzynski's safe, non-toxic treatment. It makes me so angry that the FDA has this kind of power and control. It is disgusting.
I am sorry to hear. There was person in the film .. Jodi Gold/Fenton that could bypass that rule because it had progressed to far.. maybe they didn't tell you. www.youtube.com/watch Sometimes you shouldn't take no for an answer, just push until you get kicked out of the office.
Kudos and congratulations to the Drs. Stanislaw and Gregory Burzynski! I am very proud of them and our local Dr. Mercola! Thank you all for your work.
My father went to the Burzynski clinic in 2007 in hopes of beating advanced prostate cancer that had metasticized to his bones. He was there for 3 weeks undergoing tests and diet modification (high calorie). He came home with Sutent and Tykerb which were drugs used in traditional chemo treatments for various types of cancer though not usually used in prostate cancer. This was off label use of these drugs and they were extremely expensive. His blood counts dropped dangerously and he had to discontinue the medications. My father's insurance would not pay for the Dr's care, blood work, or treatments. He spent $50,000 of his own money in three weeks. As part of his treatment plan, he purchased some of the Dr's proprietary amino acids. They wanted him to come back in 3 months, but I called to ask what would be offered to him and they had nothing different to offer so I convinced him to not return. I wish they had been more honest with my father and not given him the false hope that he received.
Stay away from the conventional treatments they are garbage they don't work . If you really want to die take them. Its a good way to commit suicide. Try the CARROT juice 4-5 glasses spread out throughout the day.
THE CARROT STORY This story is about a women in my neighborhood named Annette Lecika. Around 20 years ago Annette came into my friends electrical supply house because she was having problems with her driveway lights. My friend told her that this was a supply house and that they did not do service work. Being that Annette was a senior citizen Pat decided to help her after work. He went to her house and found that the timer clock went bad. The next day Pat return with a new clock and replaced it. Annette later offered pat something to drink and told him to open the refrigerator. When he opened up the refrigerator door it was filled with carrots. She told him an amazing story that when she was a little girl in the early 1900's she had thyroid cancer and was put in a sanitarium to die. Her mother and father did not want to believe you couldn't do anything so they sought out a new doctor. This new doctor examined her and told them to take there daughter home and recommended that she is to eat strictly carrots. Boiled, raw even cookies made from carrot. Within one month she was totally cured. This women lived to a very ripe old age. My first experiment was with my friend Joe Rae a DEP inspector here in NYC. Joe had liver cancer and multiple tumors all over the inner lining of the belly. After juice for 6 weeks the tumors disappeared. He died 4 years later from a pace maker that weakened his heart. I have told many other people who used it with positive results.

I read that glutamine doesn't hurt a person with cancer...doesn't make it worse. Most cancer maybe due to gluten/dairy which can make the immune system go down...soy blocks thyroid and lowers oxygen/sugar feeds cancer. Pain killers make the immune system go down and spread cancer.
While we're on the subject of genetics and individualized treatment, it seems like I saw on the national news on one of the major networks years ago that genetic testing could determine whether or not an individual would "tolerate" certain medications. This story was about people who died because they had overdosed on prescribed medication. It turned out that they had indeed taken the medication just as prescribed by the "doctor", but the medicine didn't leave the body so, therefore, the overdose occurred. I have not been able to find any information on this since then, or maybe I've just been looking in the wrong places? I thought that they also said that other countries like Britain do genetic testing before prescribing medicine. Wouldn't this be expensive to do on everyone before prescribing meds? Not that it shouldn't be done, but that might present a problem somewhere on that "healthcare chain".
I have inherited a stomach cancer gene that killed my mum when she was 30 (1982). My brother & 2 cousins have the same gene & are having their stomachs removed next month. Is there anyone to talk to about treatment that may help me with this. Is there further genetic research that may help me to not have my stomach out as this has not gone so well for another cousin who had the same procedure for the same reason about 7 years ago. The gene is e-cadhedrin & my family is from the East Coast Nez Zealand where lots of studies about this have been conducted. Any information would be great to receive. Thanks.
I congratulate Dr. Burzynski for his brilliant work and his dogged persistence to overcome the mafia organisations, truly inspiring story. I have to accompany my wife to the cancer clinics, she absolutely refuses conventiional approaches and get s the usual '...it will kill you...'. May or may not, she has made up her mind to pursue every possible other means besides cut and burn. I am a retired psychiatrist. I went to a conference recently and heard one of the top scientists say that only 40% of antidepressants work. That shook me, no wonder I only got a 40% success rate! Kris Thanks Dr. Mercola for really good health education and highlighting the injustices in conventional medical institutions. These are difficult times when every person is called upon to take responsibility in all walks of life, that includes above all health.
great stuff, brillant man......just surprised that Drs Burzinsky still mentioned some use ( in certain cases?) of i.e.chemo and aspirin??
It is common knowledge through internet research that "Food Grade Hydrogen Peroxide" can cure cancer, by flooding your system with oxygen. Cancer cannot survive in an oxygen environment. PERIOD! Pretty simple.. eh.. Also DMSO-hematoxylon solution is highly effective as well. I am completely shocked that most of the population including doctors are not being educated as to the healing properties of these very inexpensive treatments. I hear of people dying everyday when they didn't have to. I want to SCREAM IT from the rooftops all over the world. THERE IS A CURE. They have known about it since the early sixties. People aren't dying of cancer their dying from the treatment of cancer. Buy the book "The one minute Cure" by Madison Cavanaugh and "DMSO" Natures healer by Dr. Morton Walker and READ READ READ... I would love to know Dr. Mercola's thoughts on these remedies.
I looked up Glutamine after reading this article and where it was found in foods. This is what it said for Dietary sources for glutamine: Glutamine is plentiful in both animal and plant protein. Dietary sources of glutamine include plant and animal proteins such as beef, pork and poultry, milk, yogurt, ricotta cheese, cottage cheese, raw spinach, raw parsley, and cabbage. Glutamine is found in many foods high in protein, such as fish, meat, beans, and dairy products. Small amounts of free L-glutamine are found in vegetable juices and fermented foods, such as miso and yogurt. I found this from this website:www.vitamins-supplements.org/.../glutamine.php. All these things sound healthy to me. I know people with cancer are NOT suppose to not eat this, but what about people who don't have cancer? Seems to me that all these foods are nutritious. Is something fishy going
on here???
They wont' stop persecuting this guy. Shame on them. Yet another case (after five or six grand juries without any findings) coming April 2012. See this film. Your blood will boil. www.anh-usa.org/new-attack-on-dr-burzynski http://www.burzynskimovie.com/ Louisianas neighbor, Texas, has an infamous state medical board, and you may recall our story last November about Stanislaw Burzynski, MD, PhD. Dr. Burzynski developed (using his own money) a nontoxic gene-targeted cancer therapy called antineoplastons. It has been shown to effectively help cure some of the most incurable forms of terminal cancer. In the 1980s, the Texas Medical Board charged him with breaking a law that didnt actually exist, and tried to revoke his medical license. Numerous investigations laterincluding an appearance before the Texas Supreme Courtfound no violation of any law or standard of care. The FDA, the pharmaceutical industry, and the National Cancer Institute, knowing how promising Dr. Burzynskis therapy was proving to be, tried to duplicate his invention, then tried to steal his patentsbut failed. Now the Texas Medical Board is making yet another attempt to revoke Dr. Burzynskis medical license which, if successful, would result in the closure of his clinic, the abandonment of all his patients, and would forever end any possibility of antineoplastons gaining FDA-approval. Now it is coming to a heada date has been set for the beginning of the court case: April 11, 2012. Dr. Burzynskis fight was chronicled in a stunning documentary film, Burzynski: The Movie. More info on the documentary can be found at the films website, while the movie itself can be viewed online for a limited time. ANH-USA sent DVDs of the Dr. Burzynski documentary to all the members of the Texas legislature, as well as to Texas Governor Rick Perryand his copy was signed by the films director! If you are a resident of Texas, please write to the Texas legislative Oversight
A very interesting article. I think the concern for anyone with a cancer would be to, step one, ensure they do nothing to compound the problem or assist cancer cell growth. Is there a list of supplements/vitamins which should be avoided once diagnosed with cancer or is it more complex than that?
Burzynski + Russian research = Dr. Hamer !!! The only differences between Burzynski and big pharma are pricing and succes rate, but that can change. For a truly fundamental difference we need to add russian research showing that our dna is actually multi lingual and can be accessed and reprogrammed with ease. No cutting and slicing or Burzynski' s stuff needed. Research shows that dna has a linguistic structure (rather, our languages are dna based) and can be manipulated with words, light and thought. This explains why shamans can mumble their patients into a better state and why...Dr Hamer is highly successful in curing cancer and far ahead of everybody else. In fact, he represents the last stage of external help that will be followed by the end stage, our realisation that we are self healing entities, energy structures, that we can heal our selves by believing it, willing it and talk to ourselves in a way that our dna can relate to. GROWING NUMBERS OF PEOPLE ARE IN FACT ALREADY DOING THAT. This is to be the NEW human being in the NEW time, after the old world has disintegrated (in full progress). Check out Dr Hamer and his NGM (neue gemanische medicin), a fully scientific method and officially recognized as such, while official 'medicin' is totally void of any scientific basis and nothing more than a series of (more than 5000) hypotheses. In other words, a religion.
Dr. Hamer's work has been heavily suppressed for decades but certain circles are using his knowledge for themselves while not allowing the world at large to hear of it.
One thing (of many, lol)escapes me though about this story - with so many generous independent patrons out there, how come no one is supporting this Dr & his research? There is enough privet money to do a lot of good in this case. Why didn't it happen?
Dear Dr. Mercola, I am a 62 year old w/f, RN, who has been in nursing for 40+ years, including oncology nurse for 2 years. I lost my mother to cancer,4 of her brothers,2 of my father's sisters & one brother to cancer. I attributed most of these related to life style, as there was a lot of smoking and alcohol involved, as well as high electrical exposure & actual direct high voltage exposure of my mother's one brother,causing 5 years later to develope breast cancer & after lumpectomy,5 years later developed colon,liver and brain mets; the other brother had leukemia,for which the treatment was a success, but the patient died from complications of the side effects of the drugs given within 4 months after diagnosis. Another maternal brothers died of Hodgkins disease after mustard gas exposure during WWII; the other one died after testicular cancer, which 20years later developed metastatic disease. On my father's side, 1 sister died of lung cancer due to chain smoking,as did his one brother for the same issues & alcoholic. The other sister died of lymphoma. She was at one time a heavy smoker. In Sept. 2007, I was clinically diagnosed with inflammatory breast cancer by MRI because I refused a mammogram, knowing it compressed the breast tissue to the point of potentially rupturing cancer cells that might be present.I also refused biopsy, because to me,it was logical that by inserting a needle and cannula into the area,left a channel for which the cancer cells could travel and spread more rapidly.I had known in March of '07 that I had breast cancer. Since that time I've followed no medical intervention of chemo or radiation. Maintained neg. markers for more than 2 years, until antibiotic persipatated fungal inf. traveled to 2nd breast,declined until this year. Now on Arimidex with great response within days. Diet mostly raw foods, jucing & immune support suppliments.resolving s/s. Body,mind,spirt work,diet and supp.work! Lillian. Genesis 1:29 diet to follow.
The way Dr. Burzynski has been treated is a crime, but I'm so very glad to read he's prevailing despite such obstacles.
Eighteen years ago my husband was told he had about one year to live after being diagnosed with colon cancer. His doctor started him on chemo to prolong his life, not to cure him. He passed away after three months of pure misery. He had felt completely fine, other than some pain from the surgery to remove his colon, until starting on the chemo. I wish we had known about these natural options that people like Dr. Mercola and Dr. Burzynski are making us aware.
Could we now see if dr Simonsinske( ithink that is his name)can start trials and show proof that his therapies work.Have there ever been any trials conducted of his therapies????
I am curious what your thoughts are on the John Kanzius (targeted radio wave procedure using nanoparticles)Cancer Research? It seems this would be a minimally invasive treatment with little to no side effects. Thanks for your input.
I saw the documentary at our Sedona Film Festival...it is called, simply, Burzynski. Highly recommended! A great production that we all need to see to get us to wake-up regarding the current medical system. People were crying afterward, undoubtedly remembering what their loved ones had endured during their unsuccessful cancer treatments. A man with a trembling voice spoke up during the Q&A. He said he was in charge of the Race for the Cure in our town, and that his sister had died last year while coming to join him for the last lap. Of cancer, of course. He did not think he could again be involved with the very system that knowingly tries to destroy the lives of anyone who comes close to a cure for the very diseases that line their pockets. Cat scans and mammograms CAUSE cancer, as do radiation and the chemo drugs, many of which still in use now were introduced decades ago, and carry huge side effects. Please see the movie and share it with your family and friends. Found this link about the DVD with most of it offered free here: www.ovguide.com/.../burzynski.htm
Heavy metals including mercury & halogens including fluoride, chlorine, bromine are found everywhere you look. They block or mimic many enzymes, hormones,& minerals, amino acids in the body ;including the GILEAN enzyme which allows you to digest gluten. I became gluten intolerant after Hg & F poisoning from amalgams & fluorinated pharmaceutical drugs at age 50. Many autistic children who are being chelated PROPERLY for heavy metals are able to resume eating gluten when their gut heals and they avoid re-exposure. It is an arduous long term commitment but better to address the cause so you don't have to stay sick or just manage symptoms.
Caws, that's an interesting take on the gluten intolerance/sensitivity issue. I am 51 y/o and in the last year I have come to recognize that I am most likely gluten sensitive at least if not completely intolerant. I have never read anywhere about heavy metal toxicity causing it.

It is both fascinating and frustrating exploring the world of alternative therapies and the educated readers of this website get what's really happening... here is an interesting site to begin exploring deeper, and of course Dr. Stanislaw Burzynski is mentioned. www.mnwelldir.org/.../altthrpy.htm
There is a cure for cancer already... Rick Simpson from Nova Scotia Canada Has found it... Google his name and you will see him on you-tube.. Those to Guy's on the video, come on give me a break...
Thanks, Dr. M for providing us with so much quality information. I have found no site that even comes close to yours on the web. And I so appreciate that you charge NOTHING!!! I feel so thankful to have found it several years ago. One more thing, what do you think about dichloroacetate(DCA)? Last week, articles appeared in the news (not mainstream) about its amazing ability to kill cancer cells. See below to read one of the articles. nutritiondietnews.com/canadian-researchers-obtain-a-simple-cure-for-ca..
So is there a new thrust about vitamin D that I missed. Had blood work done this week and had Vit D checked, since I supplement during winter months, and my DR warned against excess as kidney problems are showing up. Here Dr M mentioned it to the drs in the 2nd section of video. SO is it the practice of taking less frequently but in higher doses the problem?(this tends to be how I do it) Should I really make it daily but smaller doses? Also Glutamine has proven so useful to me that I thought to mention it. If you have permeable gut it is very much a part of healing that and restoring soundness in the tissue. I have read this and only have proof in that using it I have much better digestion, less pain and there is a weakness(shakiness after exertion) after being ill that it really quickly resolves. Unfortunately I have encouraged my sister who ended up with a colostomy after a horrific cancer event to use it to heal her gut from all the surgery and antibiotics. But this use is not continuous just theraputic. Thanks for any sound advices here... (I have enough uneducated opinions at the moment... lol)
Glutamine is very useful but I do NOT recommend using isolated amino acid supplements. They should be taken as part of a whole food with other balanced amino acids.

watercuregal: Are you taking Vitamin D2 or D3? Hopefully you can get most of your Vitamin D from the sun or a safe tanning bed so that there is no excess to stress your kidneys.
Mark as Spam Posted On 5/21/2011 10:14:35 AM
Definitely Vit D3 and only until gardening weather comes.. Then I get plenty of sun. But I am dealing with some very serious health challenges and that seems to require more D to keep topped up. I was at 42 this week even after spending a few days doing garden work last week. That down from 65 last testing 6 months ago. I also do not take calcium supplements but eat very well((mega greens and some dairy) so no free floating mineral calcium to muck things up. We are entering the true warm months and I should be able to top up naturally but just wondering what the protocol for winter needs to be(no access to tanning bed here). Some,I hear, do 50,000 Vit D units once a week others 2-5000 units daily... which is better and why? Thanks Dr Mercola I do agree, but with damaged villi from CIPRO poisoning I seemed to be getting no nutition and ceased to be able to eat almost all legumes, grains, meats, milk and eggs until I did some repair work. Still not able to eats the grains but now I see that as a better thing for my health and no antibiotic meats is the rule if there is any meat. Recently my fluoride filter failed and I had a serious setback so have used L-Glutamine (once daily following a protocol for leaky gut) and things are settling down after a week... whew! No body building aspirations here... lol
Mark as Spam Posted On 5/21/2011 12:21:49 PM
Do you think that maybe the damaged villi from CIPRO poisoning are having trouble absorbing Vitamin D3? According to Dr. Holick in "The Vitamin D Solution", there is no difference between taking Vitamin D3 in one large dose per week vs smaller daily doses. However, you may absorb more total Vitamin D if taken daily--probably the best way to find out is to give daily doses a try and see how that affects your Vitamin D levels.
Mark as Spam Posted On 5/21/2011 3:46:27 PM
Have you tried taking Dr Mercols's Vit D3 spray? Absorbtion is sublingual and avoids the intestinal digestive tract and kidneys.
Mark as Spam Posted On 5/22/2011 3:17:28 AM
Yes brandywine I will be trying it this winter as it is now clear that between celiac reactions and damaged villi my uptake of Vit D seems to not be sufficient for winter use.

I really need to add that the fluoride filter failure I mentioned before was NOT the filter failing but my not keeping up with maintainance and it was not until another breach of the mucosal layers of my small intestines before I thought "Hmm... when did I put that filter in?" This sounds like a mild thing but peritonitis can kill you and I am shaken by how lax I was with replacing it. I just installed a new one and today ordered another fluoride filter replacement for January so this NEVER happens again! The Drs Burzynski say ~~~these abnormal genes "hijack" normal genes, forming a malignant network~~ Genes react to stimuli, food, exercise, stress, rest, and obviously chemicals... Don't think I will make this mistake again...

also check out "soulmasters movie" - its another opinion on preventing health challenges such as this illness. Norm Shealy thinks: "This film is a journey into true healing, worth many thousands of words."
I am somewhat confused about the information that it is the genes, which cause cancer, because that seems to contradict Bruce Liptons evidence that it is the environment which causes cancer as only about 5% of genes are malformed and that it is the trigger from the outside which modifies the behaviour of the gene. Please explain this to me?
The two interact. An environmental trigger causes cancer with a receptive gene. Think of a smoker who never gets cancer, no receptive gene. Gene therapy can cut the response causing rogue cancer cells at the source. Lifestyle/environment choices can help prevent cancer, but aren't so effective at treating cancer already started.

I've enjoyed Dr Mercola's site for years but this dreadful load of rubbish does it no credit. People are throwing away a couple of hundred grand for drugs already available on prescription, with no likelihood of prosecution! disappointing..
There are no genes for cancer this is a big fallacy and the medical fields way of brain washing people which makes big money. They are looking for something that is not there and never was there. GOD did not give us 10 commandments and then put cancer genes in us to harm us. This never was the case from the beginning of man's creation. He made man in his image meaning perfect. There are thousands of things in nature that cure cancer and the CARROT is one of many that I have seen work with amazing results. GOD left the cure within walking distance. A trip to your local supermarket that is all. The key thing in life is not to fear death this is God's department of expertise and when he decides to take you it will be his will. On the other hand if you fear death the medical field will suck you in like a vacuum cleaner and kill you will all these chemo drain cleaner treatments. Imagine being treated for cancer when you never had it. Everybody has some kind of grow in there bodies. When they tell you its cancer they plant the seed of fear in your mind and this alone is how you they get you to submit to treatments that actually kill you. Cancer does not kill you the treatments do. Best to leave it alone if you die you die but by doing this you will live and for a very long time unless a bad accident gets you.
Celiac maybe the cause of cancer...wrecks intestines so you don't absorb and makes the immune system go down...cells are not made right or work right...they are low in oxygen. pH is low due to not absorbing minerals. Chemo/radiation wreck the intestines more...so they die faster. Cancer doctors are blind to the Celiac...tests may not work to diagnose it. People can inherit Celiac...it is due to low sunlight heritage or people who eat it and never did in past history so they get hurt by it. Fear makes it worse...uses up more B vitamins and zinc which would lower oxygen. A positive attitude does help and knowing that you can heal with the right help. God is real.Great book: How to Cure Cancer for about $5.15 a day.

the late great Dr Christopher said ~~~There is one basic cause for any disease and this is simply malnutrition. Poor food, poor digestion, poor assimilation, poor utilization, poor elimination. (then) Add stress to this picture~~~ Cancer tumors and conditions are like mushrooms you can pluck them all you like but the parent plant, underneath, simply continues on until it is dismantled. The parent plant in this analogy are the processes Dr Christopher mentioned. ~~~Antineoplastons are peptides and derivatives of amino acids that act as molecular switches... Dr. Burzynski discovered that antineoplastons also work as genetic switches.Basically, we are using molecular switches that work on approximately 100 genes involved in cancer.~~~ They could have just as easily said we are affecting the genes that cause improperly assimilated food and make energy for cells that should be dying off but don't... That is what causes the cancerous condition and stress is also a HUGE part of it. We are living in some of the most stressful times there have ever been, with the worst food and medical treatment thrown in for good measure...
But I agree with you in that the proper food goes a long way toward fixing things but I wonder if for those who only awaken when caught in this trap there simply isn't time for all of them to catch up on the learning curve we have already entered upon... And so far as Creation goes quoting you~~~GOD did not give us 10 commandments and then put cancer genes in us to harm us. This never was the case from the beginning of man's creation. He made man in his image meaning perfect.~~~ The Word says Adam and his wife unplugged from God's power and they started to die as did all their offspring as God said they would... The choices WE make can hasten it and magnify the pain of that passing...
Cancer is a fear mongering term for 100,000 types of malnutrition useful only in that it should be a wake up, a call to arms. My Uneducated Opinion...
