Treatment Using the Escharotic Approach

As those who read my book know, I favor the methods used by Dr. John Pattison— because they are gentler and more appealing to me; but I have no evidence that his success was any higher than that of those who used more aggressive escharotics and more decisive strategies. Pattison used goldenseal rather than bloodroot. I love bloodroot and have a little growing in my garden, but I have heard too many bloodroot stories to recommend bloodroot to the uninitiated. It is a highly unpredictable herb, very potent, interesting, dramatic, and precious, but not controllable.

Bloodroot escharotics are aggressive; they destroy cancer and probably some other conditions as well. Goldenseal salves are different. They seem to permit some cells to return to normal. They promote a separation of the tumor from the supporting tissue, i.e., they are "enucleating" rather than escharotic. They also work more slowly and are therefore not appropriate when time is an important factor.

There are many salve products and they are not all equal. I have deliberately not included instructions for salve use on this site because people really do need to read the book before commencing use of such products. This treatment is far too complex to be undertaken lightly, and cancer is too serious for errors.

If after reading my book, someone wants to use one of the methods described in the book, he or she can make the product needed (using one of the formulas in the book) or buy a ready-made product and proceed, but the book should be carefully understood before commencing.

Boluses

I do not feel this way at all about the boluses. They do not contain aggressive ingredients, and they pose no real risks beyond false complacency. No matter what treatment is selected, assessments of the effectiveness and thoroughness of the treatment have to be made at critical intervals so as not to waste time that might be used to overcome the disease.

Like many before me, I believe the herbal adjunctive treatments to be more important than the salves because they address constitutional imbalances and weaknesses that are vital to health. However, they cannot be expected to work if patients persist in unhealthy eating habits or dysfunctional emotional patterns. Therefore, I have come to see diet as more important than herbs and inner poise and balance as more important that the physical protocols.

Why? We eat three times a day; and what we eat is needed by the body to repair worn out tissues. If we lack the nutrients needed to build healthy new cells, it does not matter what else we do, the foundation of true health will be lacking.

There are many cancer diets—and it is inconceivable that they are all sound or that any of them work for everyone. I believe diets need to be tailored to the constitutional type and unique imbalances of the patient. In other words, though macrobiotic or Gerson diets may be improvements over many standard diets, they may not be specific enough for a given individual. With the new diets based on blood types, there will continue to be foment on this subject. My own dietary concepts are based heavily on Ayurvedic medicine and the strength or weakness of each system of the body.  I believe that the body breaks down where it is weak and that we must determine what the weaknesses are. In other words, there are few standard prescriptions but rather a need for careful evaluation for each person.

 

The book contains over 100 recipes for cancer salves, pastes, poultices, liniments, internal tonics, and teas as well as detailed instructions for use of the products.
