Pang1 (1) Clifford Hospital, 8 Shiguang Road, Panyu, Guangzhou, Guangdong Province, China Corresponding author: cpang@ Oncothermia Journal, June 2013 35 Progress of research of hyperthermia integration with TCM in the treatment of cancer With the development of clinical oncotherapies, integrative treatments have generally been recognized by the Oncology Association. Hyperthermia has proven its effectiveness in the treatment of cancer which is different from surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy and biotherapy. Besides integration with the above therapies, using this with TCM is a unique approach. The progress of research of hyperthermia integration with TCM in treating cancer will be presented according to the following six aspects:l 1. The advantages of hyperthermia in the treatment of cancer 2. The advantages of TCM in treating cancer 3. The advantages of hyperthermia in combination with TCM 4.

The future of hyperthermia integration with TCM in treating cancer 1. The advantages of hyperthermia in treating cancer 1.1. Hyperthermia is part of the field of Natural Medicine. It targets cancer cells directly, improves the immune system, induces apoptosis of cancer cells, suppresses the formation of cancer vessels, destroys cancer vessels, and relieves pain caused by cancer. At the same time, hyperthermia has demonstrated no damage to normal tissue. 1.2. Hyperthermia can be utilized in conjunction with other cancer therapies and integrated into a comprehensive anti-cancer protocol.

  • Detoxification Protocol
    Dr. Joel Cone/Dr. Alexis Dobson www.diagnosticnaturalmedicine.com (512) 577-7234 Detoxification Protocol Periodic detoxification makes sense in keeping your body as fine tuned and healthy as possible. We know many disease states, including heart disease, cancer, and chronic inflammatory disease states have a strong correlation with diet, lifestyle, and environmental factors. There are many different cleanse ideas, but if we start with the knowledge of the anatomy and physiology of the body we can make the best approach to a detoxification process possible. We know that there are several systems by which toxins and waste products are eliminated through the body. By having knowledge of these systems we can increase our ability to aggressively detoxify our body. There are four major detoxification systems our body uses. The first is the respiratory system which eliminates gaseous waste products such as carbon dioxide, a waste by product of glucose metabolism. Another system is the integumentary system, in which lactic acid and various other wastes are removed. We also use the digestive system, especially the hepatobiliary system to remove some cholesterol, bile secretions, and other toxins bound in bile. The liver is also the primary congugator of metabolic toxins into water soluble products which can be sent to the kidney for removal. The remaining system is the renal system, in which the kidney removed nitrogenous wastes, including urea, ammonia, creatinine, and other drug metabolites from the body. I have also added the lymphatic and circulatory system as an elimination component, as they play a crucial role in the mobilization of compounds that need to be removed from the body.

  • Coffee Enemas
    Scientific Basis of Coffee Enemas We would like to briefly reiterate the purpose of coffee enemas because many people new to the therapy ask about this, and also as a reminder to “veterans” for how we can explain this to others. Coffee enemas are a vital part of the detoxificaAon process of the Gerson Therapy. The purpose of the enemas is to remove toxins accumulated in the liver and to remove free radicals from the bloodstream. In the 1920s, two German professors tested the effects of infused caffeine on rats. They found that the caffeine travels via the hemorrhoidal vein and the portal system to the liver, opens up the bile ducts and allows the liver to release bile, which contains toxins. The theobromine, theophylline, and the caffeine in coffee dilate blood vessels and bile ducts, relax smooth muscles, and increase the bile flow. Doctors at the University of Minnesota showed that coffee administered rectally also sAmulates an enzyme system in the liver called glutathione S- transferase by 600%-700% above normal acAvity levels. This enzyme reacts with free radicals (which cause cell damage) in the bloodstream and makes them inert. These neutralized substances become dissolved in the bile, are released through the bile flow from the liver and gallbladder, and are excreted through the intesAnal tract. A Gerson paAent holds the coffee enema in the colon for 12-15 minutes. During this Ame, the body’s enAre blood supply passes through the liver 4-5 Ames, carrying poisons picked up from the Assues. So the enema acts as a form of dialysis of the blood across the gut wall.

  • 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.

  • Coffee Enema
    Liver Detox Secret: Coffee Enema The use of coffee in enemas for detoxification purposes is well known. It is a common herbalogical remedy that has been suggested by holistic and alternative medicine professionals for many years. Why it works The effects of a coffee enema are different than most enemas. The most important difference between most enemas and a coffee enema is the presence of caffeine in the coffee. Caffeine, theophylline and theobromine, combine to stimulate the relaxation of smooth muscles causing dilation of blood vessels and bile ducts. The effects of having a coffee enema are not the same as drinking coffee. The veins of the anus are very close to the surface of the tissue. The caffeine is therefore absorbed more quickly (and in higher concentration) than it is in when coffee is drunk. Liver Benefits Additionally, coffee has a chemical makeup that is stimulative. The enzymes in coffee, known as palmitates, help the liver carry away the toxins in bile acid. The coffee is absorbed into the hemorrhoidal vein, and then taken up to the liver by the portal vein. With the bile ducts dilated, bile carries toxins away to the gastrointestinal tract. Simultaneously, peristaltic activity is encouraged because of the flooding of the lower colon. Thus, when the colon is evacuated, the toxins and bile are carried out of the body. The perfection of the caffeine dialysis enema came with research into its mechanism. • The alkaloid, caffeine, dilates the bile ducts throughout the liver. • All the clogged channels filled with toxins that force incoming toxins to continue to re-circulate causing pain, are instead, emptied rapidly.
