Homeopath Leonard Haimes, M.D. Nutritionist, Holistic Physician and Chelation Therapist Practicing holistic medicine for over fifty years with specialties in chelation therapy and homeopathy, Leonard Haimes, M.D. is much loved and respected by his vast number of patients, friends, and other well-wishers. He has preserved lives, limbs, and longevity for upwards of no less than sixty-thousand people. Dr. Haimes eliminates their requirement for any hospitalization simply by keeping them in optimal health, and he does this without resorting to the use of laboratory derived drugs. Specialty health problems which are successfully treated by Dr. Leonard Haimes include erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, balancing for bio-identical hormones, sexual organ rejuvenation, general sexual enhancement, weight management, immune system improvement, allergy system rejuvenation, human growth hormone enhancement, pain management, and correction for environmental & internal medicine dysfunction. The Haimes Centre Clinic had been directed by Leonard Haimes, M.D. but Dr. Haimes closed its doors during the second month of 2011. His patients miss him. The Gonzalez/Kelly Therapy Pancreatic enzyme therapy first utilized against all kinds of cancers by the non-conventionally practicing biological dentist William Donald Kelly, D.D.S., has shown remarkable success as a non- invasive and non-pharmaceutical healing technique. CAIM oncologist Nicholas J. Gonzalez, M.D., conducted a double-blind, placebo-controlled study and treatment trial on enzymatic applications for pancreatic cancer. He had studied under the now deceased Dr. Wm. D. Kelly, and today Dr. Gonzalez uses proteolytic enzymes extracted from the organs of New Zealand lambs. His investigations are carrying the Kelly method much further than the originator had gone. Dr. Gonzalez exclusively administers to patients affected by malignancies of the pancreas; for this condition he uses only proteolytic enzymes and does not permit any other therapies, including Beljanski’s botanicals and RNA fragments. In fact, he is experiencing a relatively high rate of success in causing pancreatic cancer remission by his application of proteolytic enzyme therapy. The Gonzalez NCI study group is now filled with trial recipients so that no more patients are being accepted at this time. However, people may receive more information about the proteolytic enzymes derived from the animal pancreas by contacting the offices of Dr. Nicholas Gonzalez at 36 East 36th Street, Suite 204, New York, New York 10016 USA; telephone (212) 213-3337; telefax (212) 213-3414. The Gerson Therapy Another holistic dietary, detoxifying, and nutritional supplement program that shows success for the treatment of nearly all cancers is the Gerson Therapy that had been developed by Max Gerson, M.D. It is such a stringent and disciplined treatment that someone achieving success with this program requires a strong will to live as the motive for accomplishing it. The Gerson Therapy incorporates a daily drinking of large amounts of carrot, apple, and green juices. Additionally, The Gerson Therapy necessitates another somewhat unusual practice, the instilling of multiple daily coffee enemas for detoxification of the liver and other organs. The program’s five required coffee enemas a day tend to pull out the accumulated cellular poisons produced by cancer cell pathology. It’s acknowledged by most CAIM health professionals that the Gerson Program recommended by Charlotte Gerson, daughter of the program’s developer, has saved more people from dying of numerous types of malignancies than any other therapy in the health-care profession today. Charlotte Gerson is founder of an excellent and highly respected cancer correction information and treatment source, The Gerson Institute. Dr. Morton Walker and Charlotte Gerson co- authored a detailed text about the Gerson treatmen program, The Gerson Therapy. You may contact the organization’s executive director, Anita Wilson, located at 1572 Second Avenue, San Diego, California 92101 USA. The Gerson Institute’s international telephone for the U.S.A. and Canada may be found at (800) 838-2256 or for the U.S.A. only telephone to (888) 443- 7766 or (619) 685-5353; FAX (619) 685-5363, website is www.gerson.org or www.gersonmiracle.org.

  • Integrative Oncology for Clinicians and Cancer Patients
    原 著 Integrative Oncology for Clinicians and Cancer Patients Michael B Schachter MD, CNS Director & Owner of Schachter Center for Complementary Medicine Abstract Worldwide medical literature supports the notion that environmental and nutritional factors play a role in the development of cancer. Nutritional recommendations to the public to help prevent cancer are available from the USA’s National Cancer Institute, the American Cancer Society and other organizations. However, when it comes to treating patients who have been diagnosed with cancer, the vast majority of oncologists fail to deal with nutritional and life- style factors to help their patients manage their cancers. Evidence continues to mount that some of the same recommendations designed to prevent cancer should also be applied to patients who already have cancer. Implementing such a program of lifestyle modifications, improvement in diet, exercise, stress management, optimal exposure to sunlight, improving energy flow and nutritional supplements should improve cancer patients’ survival statistics and the quality of life of these patients, including significantly reducing the side effects of conventional treatments. This article focuses on dietary changes and nutritional supplements to help clinicians educate cancer patients, so that they may better deal with their illness. Highlighted are: principles involving an optimal diet, avoidance of harmful chemicals and use of nutritional supplements. Some of the controversies surrounding nutritional supplements are reviewed. Specific topics covered include: a broad range supplement program, vitamin C, amygdalin, iodine, fermented wheat germ extract, mushroom extracts, supplements developed by the late Mirko Beljanski PhD and the antineoplastons of Stanislaw Burzynski. Finally, there is a discussion about paradigms in health care and the effects of politics and economics on how health care is practiced today.

  • Nicholas Gonzalez Treatment for Cancer: Gland Extracts, Coffee Enemas, Vitamin Megadoses, and Diets
    Nicholas Gonzalez Treatment for Cancer: Gland Extracts, Coffee Enemas, Vitamin Megadoses, and Diets Saul Green, Ph.D. Nicholas Gonzalez, MD, has developed a treatment for cancer that is a duplication of one devised by William Donald Kelley, a dentist from Grapevine, Texas [1,2]. Gonzalez heard about Kelley's methods from a friend, and during his second year in medical school, he visited Kelley in Texas [3]. Gonzalez learned the details of Kelley's cancer treatments by reading patients' charts in which were recorded diagnoses, treatment regimens, and various anecdotes. Gonzalez continued his observations intermittently for five more years, wrote up his findings, but did not publish them. The Kelley Treatment The Kelley treatment, as outlined in his Newsletter on Cancer Remedies [4], is based on a belief in a relationship between diet and "detoxification" with coffee enemas as outlined by Max Gerson, MD [5,6]. According to Kelley, all cancers are one disease caused by a deficiency of protein digestive enzymes, which allows cancer cells to grow. Kelley explained that because this cause of cancer is so clear and simple, it is ignored by the medical establishment [7]. He offered this explanation: The direct cause of cancer according to our research, is the changing of an ectopic germ cell into an ectopic trophoblast cell. An excess of female hormones brings about this change. Both men and women have sex hormones and when the delicate male- female sex hormone balance is upset, a cancer starts. Thus cancer is the growth of normal tissue, i.e. basic germ cells, in the wrong place.

  • Coffee Enema
    The Coffee Enema Its Unique History and Amazing Detox Properties The following information is quoted from “The Royal Enema” by Dr. Ralph Moss An enema is “a fluid injected into the rectum for the purpose of clearing out the bowel, or of administering drugs or food.” The word itself comes from the Greek en-hienai, meaning to “send or inject into.” The enema has been called “one of the oldest medical procedures still in use today.” Tribal women in Africa, and elsewhere, routinely use it on their children. The earliest medical text in existence, the Egyptian Ebers Papyrus, (1,500 B.C.) mentions it. Millennia before, the Pharaoh had a “guardian of the anus,” a special doctor one of whose purposes was to administer the royal enema. The Greeks wrote of the fabled cleanliness of the Egyptians, which included the internal cleansing of their systems through emetics and enemas. They employed these on 3 consecutive days every month said Herodotus (II.77) or at intervals of 3 or 4 days, according to the later historian, Diodorus. The Egyptians explained to their visitors that they did this because they “believed that diseases were engendered by superfluities of the food”, a modern-sounding theory! Enemas were known in ancient Sumeria, Babylonia, India, Greece and China. American Indians independently in- vented it, using a syringe made of an animal bladder and a hollow leg bone. Pre-Columbian South Americans fash- ioned latex into the first rubber enema bags and tubes. In fact, there is hardly a region of the world where people did not discover or adapt the enema.

  • Gerson Regimen | Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center
    PATIENT & CAREGIVER EDUCATION Gerson Regimen This information describes the common uses of Gerson Regimen, how it works, and its possible side effects. Tell your healthcare providers about any dietary supplements you’re taking, such as herbs, vitamins, minerals, and natural or home remedies. This will help them manage your care and keep you safe. How It Works The Gerson regimen does not treat or prevent cancer. The Gerson regimen was developed by Max Gerson in the 1940s. It involves a strict metabolic diet that emphasizes fresh fruit and vegetable juice, high carbohydrate and potassium, no sodium or fat, and low animal protein. The diet is often supplemented with digestive enzymes, coffee enemas, and various supplements, including laetrile. This diet is based on the theory that it addresses the cause of cancer by detoxifying the body and stimulating metabolism so that the body can heal itself. These Gerson Regimen 1/4 toxins, Gerson claimed, build up from environmental pollution and processed foods, and eventually alter cell metabolism. However, this proposed toxin build-up has never been proven, nor has the diet’s ability to remove such toxins from the body. Coffee enemas are used in several metabolic therapies. Theoretically, they may help excretion from the liver and colon, but it has not been proven. Coffee enemas can actually be dangerous when used repeatedly, causing electrolyte imbalances in the blood and impaired nutrient absorption. Because the high levels of fruits and vegetables are eaten raw, they may not be absorbed as easily, especially in patients with gastrointestinal cancers or chemotherapy-induced gastrointestinal disorders.
