Guest guest Posted September 30, 2004 Report Share Posted September 30, 2004 Dear Tammie, From: " Tammie Forbes " <tforbes6@...> > I was diagnosed with Hodgkin's Disease last month. I'm sorry to hear that. > Someone told me not to eat any sugar absolutely, particularly w/lymphoma > wheat It's not NECESSARILY bad, but non-whole wheat's bad, and nonsprouted wheat's high-glycemic and has a lot of gluten, which many people have problems with. I'd limit myself to sprouted wheat (Ezekiel & Manna bread). > or dairy products Cottage cheese ( & butter) contains butyrates/butyric acid, which are effective w/lymphoma, all the more reason to consume flaxseed oil & cottage cheese (FSO/CC). Also, w/lymphoma, it's not necessarily as important to avoid fat & meat, but I'd always avoid Omega 6 fat. > Also, is there another way to get rid of Hodgkins Disease other than chemo? Yes, there are effective alt. therapies for Hodgkins. I don't know how their success rates compare w/chemo. Unless I was prepared to do a very intensive alt. treatment regimen, I would get chemo, at least low-dose or IPT. However, I think it's a difficult and very personal decision. > what is the best type of chemo? If I was doing chemo (for Hodgkins) would do vincristine or bleomycin, because I believe they do the least damage to the immune system. If I did chemo, I'd also do alt. therapies simultaneously. I believe the following are amongst the most effective alt. therapies for lymphomas Kelley- PANCREATIC ENZYME therapy-- large amounts of high-quality enzymes on empty stomach (under medical guidance. BioImmune.com IV-vit. C-based protocol. Contact them for a practitioner near you. HOXSEY FORMULA (available at health food stores) FSO/CC juicing (particularly ASPARAGUS, CARROT, & BEET juices) grape leaf pectin (MCP) do intense parasite, fungal, & viral cleanse and liver flush/detox Lymphoma's reportedly viral-based, so take antiviral supplements. " Epstein Bar virus and Helicobacter Pylori have been associated with the various lymphomas..good idea to have yourself tested for their presence and treat accordingly " Gammill, 11/03 " Naltrexone [prescription drug] 3 mg/day seems to stop any lymphoproliferative disease. It takes about 4-6 months though. " (Gammill 10/00). " very good idea to use naltrexone with any lymphoproliferative disease. If aggressive then metenkephlin can be added.transdermally " (Gammill, 11/03) " immunotherap[ies].that stimulate the B-lymphocytes are potentially disastrous with certain lymphomas. The ones that support T-lymphocytes can be very helpful " " when you have a b-cell lymphoma. The last thing you want to do is to stimulate b-cells--which many substances normally given will do, for instance, Echinacea " Best wishes, Leonard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
