Here’s a short video of me sharing my story at the 2011 CCS Cancer Convention.

Study: Chemo Is Only 2.1% Effective Toward 5 Year Survival [8 Min.]

I received an email yesterday that I decided to answer on the blog.
Here it is:

“My wife found your blog and I find it very inspirational and resourceful.
I’ve been diagnosed with Stage 3 cancer just like yours, but unlike your tumor, mine is located in the lower part of the rectal area.

I have visited the oncologists and surgeons, they said the best way is to go through Chemo and Radiation in order to shrink the tumor size small enough to remove it during surgery.

I will begin my treatment next week, the Chemo I’ll be taking is the pill that I’ll have to consume twice a day for 6 weeks with radiation.

The doctors said I will be required to go through another chemo therapy after surgery, which would be different chemo treatment (through IV). That’s where my wife feel most uncomfortable and began researching different options such as alternative therapy. And she found your blog with some insightful information.

I changed my diet to raw organic vegetables the day I was informed that I had cancer. It was a life changing moment and left me a little confused what’s on the horizon for me. Instead I began to eat more raw organic food and exercise than I have done before (I have been eating organic food and exercising moderately for years).

While I have read through some of your blogs and stories, I know you mentioned that you had surgery to remove part of the large intestine and forego chemo and radiation with alternative therapy. I am still confused about the part when you had surgery…Did you have any treatment before your surgery? I understand your blog and stories mostly mention after surgery treatment but maybe I overlooked somewhere that says anything about before surgery?

I am curious to know because my age is slightly older than your age right now and I have two young daughters, too.

I just do hope that everything posted on your website is true. I am not doubting anything but I do praise your recovery and living cancer free. That’s my goal too.”

Regards,
Tris.

What Is CrossFit?

Exercise is a critical component to getting healthy and staying healthy.  
Everyone knows this.  Moving your body gets your all juices flowing.  
Mostly importantly it increases blood and lymphatic circulation,
both of which are imperative in the healing process.

I exercised a lot in the first few years of my cancer diagnosis.
Especially short runs and rebounding. But I didn’t do much weight training…
And I’m a little embarrassed to admit that I had a local gym membership
that I’ve barely used in the last 10 years.

CrossFit got me excited about working out again.

The Waterwise Countertop Water Distiller

We’ve used our Waterwise 8800 Countertop Water Distiller since 2004 because steam distillation removes more contaminants than any other method.
Only steam distillation and select reverse-osmosis filters remove fluoride, a known carcinogen, from your drinking water.  

We fill up our distiller every night before bed and the next morning we have a gallon of pure, clean H20 ready to drink. It’s especially gratifying to look in the boiler and see all the crud it has removed from our drinking water like fluoride, chorine, lead, and bacteria.

The 8800 distills a gallon of water every 4 hours. If you have a large family, you should order an extra carafe. That way you can always have one in the fridge and one filling up in the distiller. They have several different size models and even one that distills without electricity!

Burzynski The Movie: Cancer Is Serious Business

In 2004 I was resarching alternative cancer therapies and heard about Dr. Stanley Burzynski in Houston, Texas.

I was told that he had developed a non-toxic “alternative” therapy that was more effective than chemo or radiation on even the most aggressive cancers.  So yeah, he was on my short list of doctors to see if I my natural approach didn’t work.

“Burzynski The Movie: Cancer Is Serious Business” documents the amazing cancer treatment discovered by Dr. Burzynski called Antineoplastons and how the FDA and the National Cancer Institute tried to shut down his clinic, prove his therapy didn’t work, and put him in jail while the U.S. Government tried to steal his patent. Really!

Micah and I just watched this and it is so freaking awesome I almost exploded.

Bend Over: The Unpopular Opinion on Vaccines

Before you jump to any conclusions, I am not anti-vaccine. My family has had vaccinations, but I wouldn’t call myself pro-vaccine either… Vaccinating children every year is a billion dollar annual business for the pharmaceutical companies. But do they really help or do they do more harm than good?

The Champion Juicer

Juicing is the best way to quickly extract massive amounts of vital nutrients from vegetables and fruit and get them into your body. I drank eight glasses of veggie juice every day for several years as part of my anti-cancer diet, but you don’t have to drink that much!  
Just 1-2 glasses per day will do you a ton of good.

I’ve used all kinds of juicers over the years and the Champion Juicer is still my juicer of choice.  Why?  Because it extracts a lot of juice; it’s super easy to clean up; and it’s built to last.  Our Champion has been in our kitchen working like a “champ” since 2004.

I recommend spending the extra $30 for the one with the commercial motor.

Quercetin: The Most Powerful Flavonoid in the Galaxy!

I first heard of this flavonoid from one of my heroes, Dr. Russell Blaylock, M.D.

Blaylock is a recently retired board-certified neurosurgeon and one of the rare M.D.’s out there that has also devoted his time to become an expert on natural therapies despite criticism from the medical community at large.

He’s an expert on the specific nutrients within food that strengthen your immune system, help your body fight cancer, and minimize the side effects of chemotherapy and radiation. Alright, enough about Blaylock, the super flavonoid is…
