The Budwig protocol is a popularization and an evolution of a

protocol that began approximately 400 years earlier. It is a good

protocol because it corrects a severe unsaturated fatty acid

distortion in our modern diets -- the omega-3 to omega-6 ratio. We

need both, but the overuse of omega-6 oils has contributed to the

dumbing down of our cell mediated immunity -- the main type of

immunity on which we depend to dispose of aberrant cells. (Another

major factor that adversely affects immune function is the many

untested chemicals in our modern environment.) The modern versions

of flaxseed oil protocols exclude the use of turpentine. The

terpenes do have their own separate time lines that antedate their

use with flaxseed oil.

There have been been attempts at improving strategies that use of

flaxseed and similar oils to fight cancer. A popular one in the

Ukraine and Russia is the emulsification of seed oils with

alcohol. Another is the a method of covalently bonding selenium with

flax seed oil instead of the using sulfur as in the earliest examples.

More recently there has been an effort to use enormous dosages of

flaxseed oil to cure cancer. The mechanism of action seems to be

quite different and the biology seems to require calcium for an

effective anti-cancer action. I am currently investigating the other

end of the calcium axis and determining how well the strategy of

calcium deprivation can contribute (or not..!!) to certain anticancer

protocols. There are similar axes featuring high vs. low iron, high

vs. low pH, oxidants vs. antioxidants, orthomolecular therapy vs. the

withholding of select nutritional components, etc., etc. I can

certainly appreciate the difficulty that most cancer patients have in

trying to sort this out as the hourglass runs down. Unfortunately,

most alternative therapy cancer patients -- either desperately or

blithely -- throw almost anything at the cancer without adequate

reflection. Oddly, people constantly tell me, " I don't want to learn

anything, I just want the medicine. "

Wow, I find it amazing that people actually tell you this and constantly...

It's a real shame people cannot think for themselves...always listening to

others' " opinions " and not doing their own research to find out if these

opinions are true or not.
