Someone made a great post recently on about fasting and it reminded me of quite a few stories I’ve heard of people beating cancer by going on a water fast.

I think most people here will agree that our current understanding of medical science is based more on what’ll make the most money rather than what will be most efficient in healing, so I was wondering what treatments you guys might have heard of.

Personally, I’ve come across stories of Chinese herbalists creating strange teas with mushrooms, some suicidal German guy picking mushrooms in a forest and brewing into a tea hoping to poison himself (ended up curing his cancer), a few people going on a water fast for 2 or so months, etc.

In other words, I’ve seen many examples of people tackling their cancer independent of a hospital, which would usually prescribe $500-a-pill medications, or completely destroy your immune system by flooding your body with chemotherapy.

TL:DR I’ve had many friends and family, too many to count, die of chemotherapy when trying to treat their cancer at a hospital (only one survived). Likewise, I know one person who went to a chinese herbalist after being told they had 3 months to live, and the tea they got gave them an extra 30 years...

So what do you guys think are some ways to treat cancer that the medical industry is failing/refusing to consider? I have to say, I’m especially pissed that not enough attention is being given to water fasting.

Go get a chemical composition of any part of your body and you'll find those exact same things. Your body is literally made up of a percentage of iron. Remove it and you'd die instantly.

Simply stated, you're just wrong.

There's a difference between inorganic and organic.

Meat is loaded with iron. It is very different to get your iron from meat Vs from a supplement. With meat you nourish yourself and get bioavailable iron, with a supplement, there are no enzymes, no bacteria, your body doesn't know what it is, so it doesn't utilize it and just stores it somewhere.

Women who have trouble getting pregnant often have an iron deficiency. Iron supplements are often recommended and used, but with little effect. Give the woman some more steak and her iron problems are solved nice and quick

The same with any nutrient.

There is ZERO difference between iron in your body and iron in supplements. You have been misled by quackery. You likely will never change your views but they are wrong. Iron is an element. It literally cannot change any unless a nuclear operation is applied to it.

I'm sorry but you've been brainwashed.

Lol the supplement industry is quackery just like big pharma.

Calling getting your nutrients from food quackery is kinda stupid man.

Put a baby on a supplement diet and see how fast it deteriorates
