The Growth of cancer cells

A German biochemist, Dr. Otto Warburg discovered the 'cause' of cancer back in 1923 and he received the 1931 Nobel Prize for doing so. In his book, "The Metabolism of Tumors", Dr. Warburg demonstrated that the primary cause of cancer was the replacement of oxygen in the respiratory chemistry of normal cells by the fermentation of sugar. The growth of cancer cells is a fermentation process which can be initiated only in the relative absence of oxygen.

One may wonder how any cell can survive, much less grow, in the absence of oxygen. But it so happens that plant cells are like that. Oxygen is a waste product that they discard. In other words, cancer cells are plant cells that live within an animal. I understand that the National Cancer Institute verified Warburg's theories in the 1950's; however, very little work has been done to determine the causes of a lack of oxygen to the human body.

Among American doctors, Dr. Sheldon Saul Hendler is perhaps one of the very few who is advocating oxygen deficiency as the causes of many illnesses. In his book, entitled "The Oxygen Breakthrough, 30 Days to an Illness-Free Life", Dr. Hendler teaches breathing exercises and oxygen rich diets to overcome the oxygen deficiency problems.

Ever since Warburg's discovery, researchers have been attempting to stop the fermentation process through drugs, radiation and surgery, which, in some cases, have been temporarily successful. In the mean time, the Germans are trying to find ways of getting more oxygen to all of the healthy cells in order to prevent the initiation of the fermentation process.

Oxygen therapies

There are devices and methods available for the purpose of supplying more oxygen to the cells. "Oxygen Therapies" by Ed McCabe describes a hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and ozone (O3) treatments. Drinking a diluted hydrogen peroxide solution or injecting ozone intravenously or rectally will place extra oxygen in the blood through a path other than the lungs.

Recently we are learning that doctors in Europe have long been making use of the body's 'third lung', the colon, during surgery due to its ability to absorb up to 70% of the oxygen introduced to it.

Although I heard a doctor claim to have destroyed 80% of a breast tumor by directly injecting ozone into the tumor, I question the validity of this kind of oxygen treatment unless the patient had a respiratory problem and was not able to breath in oxygen through the lungs. Oxygen infused in this manner eventually dissipates and it does not convert the acidic environment to an alkaline one.

The true cause of cancer

Herman Aihara, in his book entitled "Acid & Alkaline" states that:

"If the condition of our extracellular fluids, especially the blood, becomes acidic, our physical condition will first manifest tiredness, proneness to catching colds, etc. When these fluids become more acidic, our condition then manifests pains and suffering such as headaches, chest pains, stomach aches, etc. According to Keiichi Morishita in his Hidden Truth of Cancer, if the blood develops a more acidic condition, then our body inevitably deposits these excess acidic substances in some area of the body such so that the blood will be able to maintain an alkaline condition.

As this tendency continues, such areas increase in acidity and some cells die; then these dead cells themselves turn into acids. However, some other cells may adapt in that environment. In other words, instead of dying - as normal cells do in an acid environment - some cells survive by becoming abnormal cells. These abnormal cells are called malignant cells. Malignant cells do not correspond with brain function nor with our own DNA memory code. Therefore, malignant cells grow indefinitely and without order. This is cancer."

In chapter 2, I showed the relationship between alkalinity and excess oxygen in water. Mr. Aihara does not mention anything about the lack of oxygen but rather talks about the acidification of extra cellular fluids which causes cancer. Dr. Warburg states that the primary cause of cancer is the lack of oxygen in a cell, like a plant cell. He didn't know what caused the lack of oxygen.

I think Dr. Warburg was dealing with the symptom of acid build ups rather than the cause. Mr. Aihara was hitting the nail right on the head. For this reason, the German solution is to alleviate the symptoms, that is, to supply more oxygen, while the Japanese solution is to reduce the acidity, the very cause, by alkaline diet and/or alkaline water.

Alkaline therapies

When you drink alkaline water, you are drinking water with excess oxygen, not in the form of O2, but in the form of OH- which is very stable because it is mated with positively ionized alkaline minerals. Two of these hydroxyl ions can form a water molecule (H2O) and give out one oxygen atom. The alkaline mineral is used to detoxify poisonous acid compounds and when that happens the hydroxyl Ionize freed to supply excess oxygen to the cells to prevent the development of cancer. It is indeed the case of killing two birds with one stone.

We are talking about two kinds of oxygen. One is in a dynamic form, O2, and the other is in the stable bias form of OH- mated with positively ionized alkaline minerals. The body needs both kinds of oxygen. If you hold your breath, O2 is cut off and you die, and if your body pH goes down below 7, OH- is cut off and you would die also. When breathing stops, O2 is first used up and the body will use up OH- secondly, then death will occur. That takes about three minutes. Those people with high alkalinity, like babies, would live longer than 3 minutes.

Reflecting back on the research works done by the two scientists, what is happening in our body may be as follows. When the environment for the cells becomes too acidic, there isn't enough oxygen to go around for all the cells in the area. In order for some cells to survive under the circumstances, they selectively change some cells to plant cells so that they can take in CO2 and give out O2. The convenience of the moment may cause damage later on, but at least it caused the survival of life for a little longer.

Remember, the human body is a marvelously engineered survival machine.

Conventional medical therapies

Today's medical industry treats malignant cells as if they were bacteria or viruses. They try to destroy them at any cost and usually the cost is the immune system of the patient. Since malignant cells are derived from healthy cells, trying to destroy one will affect the other. Chemotherapy or radiation treatments may be able to destroy 'all' of the malignant cells, but by that time the healthy cells are damaged to the point that they cannot destroy simple everyday bacteria and that person can lose his life.

Surgery for a malignant tumor is perhaps more selective. However, even after 'successful' surgery where 'all' of the tumors were removed, they can recur because the acidic environment has not been changed to an alkaline one. Radiation treatment after the surgery is another mistake. It will destroy some healthy cells and when those cells die, they become acidic wastes. A shot of sodium bicarbonate may be much better than radiation treatment, provided that a proper ratio of sodium and potassium is maintained.

It is discouraging to see that cancer research is divided into so many specialties such as cancer of the liver, cervical cancer, cancer of the kidneys, cancer of the pancreas, etc. The cause of all cancer is a lack of oxygen caused by acidification. But when so many doctors are specializing cancer research in such narrow fields, they will never find the true overall picture. They will be forever lost in a maze.

Best cancer prevention means

Drinking high pH alkaline water will definitely help in preventing cancer. Research should be done by the National Cancer Institute to see how alkaline water may help in curing early stages of cancer, depending upon how far the cancer has progressed. I am sure that there is a point of no return. However, since the healthy cells are alkaline and the malignant cells are acidic, drinking alkaline water will not harm healthy cells while it may destroy malignant cells.
