Dr Koch and Glyoxylide/Malonide

May 28, 2003

He used a weak dilution with a carboxyl group to oxidize all type of

disease. Would this work for Cancer today, as it did than???

This information was derived from Haley's book, " Politics In

Healing. " All quotes have a bracketed page number by them. Thank you.

Dr Koch and Glyoxylide/Malonide

These days polio is a virtually unheard of disease in America. But

there was a time when it was devastating and greatly feared. In

August 1949, 19-year-old Lou ' leg gave way. The next day

the leg became paralyzed and their doctor, Harold , told them

it was Polio. injected with 2cc of Glyoxylide. The next

day sensation returned to 's leg and that evening she came down

to dinner. The news of 's startling recovery immediately made

headline news across the country. This was the first time had

used Glyoxylide and he asked city hospital authorities if he could

try it on more Polio cases. Permission was denied. The AMA had

blacklisted the drug. In December 1952 the local branch of the AMA

expelled from membership thereby denying him hospital

privileges. It didn't matter that Dr. had done his job and

saved from at least severe physical problems, probably

paralysis. What was important to the AMA was that he had done it

using a drug unapproved by them.

Glyoxylide/Malonide was developed by Dr. Koch

(pronounced " Coke " ). Koch (1885-1967) received his BA, MA and PhD

(Biochemistry) all from the University of Michigan. In 1914 he became

professor of physiology at the Detroit College of Medicine where he

earned his MD in 1918. Koch noticed that cancer and other diseases

broke down the bodies oxidation system; if there was healthy

oxidation in the body there was no disease. Koch decided to develop a

non-destructive cancer therapy that would work with the body's

natural chemistry. He found that heart and brain tissue was

particularly resistant to oxygen starvation. He identified carbonyl

compounds as being responsible for producing energy and was vital to

the body's oxidation process. Now it was time to test his theory, and

in 1917 he was given his chance. A woman in late stages of metastasis

liver cancer in a Detroit hospital was only expected to live a week.

Koch gave her a carbonyl rich extract of heart and brain tissue. When

visiting the following week Koch found the hospital bed empty and

assumed she had died. The following June however Koch was astounded

to bump into the woman on the street who gave him a big hug. The

woman said she'd asked after him but the hospital had lied and told

her he went off to work for the U.S. Army.

After Koch wrote an article about this in the Detroit Medical Journal

an AMA representative came to visit. He asked for all rights to the

treatment as well as all the research and methodology of creating it.

Not surprisingly, Koch refused. A couple of months later Koch was

denounced as a quack in the Journal of American Medicine (JAMA). Koch

soon developed a method of creating oxygen rich carbonyls

synthetically that was far cheaper and easier than the complex heart

and brain tissue extract. They were called Glyoxylide and Malonide. A

simple explanation of Koch's treatment is that it kick starts the

body's oxidation system.

In 1919 Koch requested the Wayne County Medical Society to appoint a

committee to test his treatment in five terminal cancer cases. The

committee chose five " stretcher " cases, all at deaths door. Koch

treated them and in three weeks they were all up and about, cheerful

and gaining strength. The committee immediately ordered them all home

and " forbade them any more care from Koch. " (p 55). The committee's

final report was no results. Koch wrote about one of the patients'

recoveries in his 1955 book, " Survival Factor. "

" Mrs. Edith Fritts had cancer of the uterus proven by laporotomy as

extending throughout the abdomen and perforating the stomach so as to

cause severe bleeding. She lived fifteen years in good health after

the treatment and died from an accident. The coroner's autopsy showed

no cancer was present… " Koch had given Edith one shot of

Glyoxylide. " (p55.)

In 1923 Koch appealed to the committee to change its false report

made in 1919. They refused. Dr. Dewey M.D., a professor of homeopathy

at the University of Michigan had observed the Cancer Committee's

official review and wrote to Koch on October 25, 1924.

" I have received what is termed the latest report on your treatment.

This claims to be an account of the séance held on Nov. 5, 1923, at

which I was present and took notes of each case. For a studied intent

to falsify, a premeditated determination to condemn everything, and

an unscientific, un-American assumption to be judge, jury, and

prosecuting witnesses, the report of this so-called committee

outstrips in bias, unfairness, and mendacity anything that has ever

been my lot to observe in a medical practice of forty-two years. " (

p56/57.)

The letter concludes " I hope that some day your treatment will have

an investigation before a body of seekers after the truth. These you

will not find in American official medicine, which is a trust to keep

all progress not coming from it's own out of the field. " Incredibly,

during 30 some years of Koch's therapy being used in the U.S. the

Wayne County Medical Society's " trial " is the only official test ever

carried out despite repeated requests from Koch.

Dr. C. Everett Field of the Radium Institute of New York reviewed the

Institute's October 1923's " Investigation of Thirty-Four Koch Cases " .

Field wrote, " The exhibit without doubt formed the most remarkable

experience of my medical career. " (p57) Field spent many years

documenting and publishing the results of many of Koch's cases. Field

was also reprimanded by the AMA for supporting Koch and suffered as a

result.

In 1935 Koch went to Belgium at the invitation of Dr. Maisin who was

a world-renowned cancer expert. Six weeks later a group of powerful

American doctors came to Belgium and tried to convince Maisin that

Koch was a fraud. But Maisin was only interested in the truth and

told them, " I am convinced it is scientifically sound and clinically

efficient. " (p63) The motive for the American's visit was that one of

them had large investments in radium and did not want competition

from Koch's treatment.

Dr. Arnott was acquainted with Maisin and told the Ontario Cancer

Commission (1939) what Maisin had told him. (p64)

Dr. Koch's formula is a new method for treating disease. The Koch

formula should not be called merely a cure for cancer. It is a very

important step and is likely to change the whole picture of medicine

and pathology because of the clinical results.

In January 1943 Koch was in court fighting the first of two trials

brought by the FDA for supposed labeling fraud . It is in large part

because of these two trials that we know how effective and how much

evidence there was to support Glyoxylide's effectiveness. Koch

organized a large amount of case histories with biopsies and patient

testimonials.

The Koch lawyers presented hard evidence of cures of cancer of the

bone, uterus, stomach, liver, spleen, pancreas, ….,breast…as well as

cures of TB, polio, asthma, heart thrombosis, leprosy, hyperthropic

arthritis…The government lawyers presented various experts who

admitted they had no experience with the Koch therapies. Still, they

testified, Glyoxylide and Malonide could not be effective " in their

opinion. " (p71-72)

One particular case was Wesley Roebuck, who had surgery in 1926 for

cancer of the stomach. The disease returned so he went to Koch and

received a shot of Glyoxylide. The cancer cleared up and he testified

at Koch's trial over 14 years later and cancer free. In the first

trial, two newspapers closely followed the proceedings, the " Detroit

Times " and the " Detroit Free Press. " Headlines taken form court

testimony read, (p72)

Three Cancer Cures Put in Record at the Koch Trial…Hospital Executive

gives Case Histories as Defense Witness…Doctor Testifies Koch Formula

Aided 16 Cases…Cancer Doctor Says Koch Cure Replaced X-Rays.

Even though Koch provided vast amounts of evidence that his treatment

worked it was a hung Jury. The country was at war. Americans found it

difficult to believe the government would suppress an effective

cancer treatment. Koch's second trial in 1946 was declared a

mistrial.

Dr. Albert Wahl of Mt. Vision, NY, is an interesting example of how

people can change dogmatic opinions when they investigate, or are

forced to face, the facts for themselves. For years Wahl dismissed

Koch's treatment as worthless, basing his opinion on JAMA

misinformation. His sister became ill with cancer and his father took

her to Koch, over Wahl's objections. " She promptly recovered in

characteristic fashion " (p81) Wahl wrote in his 1947 book " Least

Common Denominator, " in which he documented 150 cures he had observed

using the Koch treatment. Wahl said of the Koch treatment, " The most

startling element is the utter simplicity of the Koch treatments…

After using them, I felt I'd never practiced medicine before. " (p81/82)

Fearing further government harassment and possible further trials

that he could not afford to defend against, Koch left the U.S. in

1948 never to return. He died in 1967 and with him went Glyoxylide.
