I read of apricot pips. The big pharma conspiracy... I was bought in but hubby said things that made sense. They make lots of money out of the cancer industry, mulitbillions, but lots have been put into research and clinical trials etc and it's probably fair.Zoffiel said:Please don't. If pot, peach pips prayer or any of the other dozens of 'natural and non-invasive' treatments worked there would be some science to prove it. There is no big pharma conspiracy (well there probably is, but not at this level) to keep us on the poison.
I did read that some chemo drugs are actually plant based e.g. From periwinkle for taxol (if I am not wrong!) and some are lab synthesized.
And the Chris who beat cancer refused to have chemo or radiotherapy, I admire him but he did have surgery before he jumped into alternative therapies to cure himself. I really do think surgery helped him though he did say given a choice he wouldn't have done it.
as I shared, several girlfriends around me have gone through similar experiences as I did with conventional treatment. It was also family and friends' support that helped me decide on conventional treatment. Hard journey but no turning back and I look forward to my full recovery and restoration! xxx
