In 2014, I was diagnosed with folicular lymphoma (cancer of the blood). I was very much against chemo, due to all the things I had read and heard. In my case, I tried many things. Apricot seeds was on of them.
Unfortunately, they did absolutely nothing at all. They taste extemely bitter, and did nothing beneficial. I would not recommend them.
I tried some other things, none of which worked. My situation was complicated by something else, and ultimately, I agreed to do the chemo. Chemo saved my life.
I do not trust the medical industry -- less now than then. But there was a chemo cocktail that was very effective for my type of cancer. It wiped it out, and I have been very healthy since (7 years now).
If I ever have any type of cancer again, I will tell you what I would do. First, let me tell you my perspective on cancer.
I don't know about prostate cancer, specifically, but I have studied cancer for personal reasons. I have a theory that I can't prove, but it makes sense, and has to do with what I would do if I have it again.
In a nutshell, everybody has cancer cells floating around in their body. Doctors and nurses will confirm this. But a person is only diagnosed with cancer when there are so many cancer cells that it overwhelms the immune system's ability to deal with it. From there, it can spiral out of control as the cancer cells take over for the healthy cells, and the person dies.
I think the entire key is the immune system. Due to some things in my life at the time, my immune system got shot to hell, and I was also not living a healthy lifestyle (poor diet, etc.).
The key is the immune system. MUST strengthen the immune system (why do you think the vaxxes being pushed are targeting the immune system?).
So, understanding how to strengthen the immune system and starve the cancer cells is what I would personally do.
The #1 way to do this, in my opinion, is DRY FASTING. This is a scary thought for those who have never heard of it or tried it, but that is quackery medical industry trying to scare you.
Humans evolved following herds and hunting meat. We went days without eating at times. The body NEEDS this rest to allow a cleansing process, called autophagy.
The biggest health problem in the West today is that people eat to much AND TOO FREQUENTLY. Our bodies NEVER get a chance to rest and cleanse, other than when we sleep.
USC did a study that showed that regular (water) fasting rebooted the immune system after just 3 days of not eating:
Here is a paper on fasting and cancer. They are talking about intermittent fasting, but for someone already with prostate cancer, I don't think that would be aggressive enough.
Just consider: the ultimate calorie restriction is going all the way down to zero calories.
Dry fasting (no food or liquids, including water), cleanses the body faster than regular water fasting.
In FEB 2020, I think I might have got the coof. When I woke up in the morning, I felt a sore throat. So, I dry fasted all day. That night, I was nauseous and I went to the sink to throw up. But I ended up dry heaving because I had no food in my stomach. By Day 3, I was back to pretty much 100% normal. In the past, colds get me down for 2-3 weeks. They just dragged out. Now, I dry fast and my body deals with the virus in 24-48 hours, and I'm back to normal.
Now, I realize that selling a pill or seeds is a hell of a lot easier than selling the idea of not eating or drinking at all. But I believe this is by far the #1 way to heal any sickness.
How I would do it is this:
Eat a meal with zero carbs (cancer feeds on sugar) -- so, meat, sausage, eggs, cheese, but no dairy or plant foods.
Then, 3 days with no food or water (tough to do the first time, but you get through it if you really want to -- it gets easier the next time)
After 3 days, eat another single meal of zero carbs (eat as much as you want until feeling full), then back to 3 days of dry fasting again.
I would repeat this for a few months, and then have another cancer checkup.
If it got to a point that I just could not go 3 days dry fasted, I would eat and drink only 1 time per day, and dry fast the other 23+ hours each day. Zero carbs in each meal.
If you or your family member wants some hard core motivation on dry fasting, this is the guy to watch (he is EXTREMELY offensive the way he talks, but you get used to it and he's actually very funny. Probably the world's expert on dry fasting because he has done so many experiments on himself and coached hundreds, if not thousands of others.
He focuses on weight loss because that is the market that is the biggest, but he has also done videos about people who have cured various health problems.
P.S. I'm sure you know (but normies don't) that you will never find a clinical study on fasting because the Rockefeller Medical Industry will never make any money on not eating as a health remedy. Keep that in mind when you do your research. The USC study is probably about as close as you will get.
This is a very interesting post. I would think water would be helpful for removing toxins. If you don't drink anything doesn't the dehydration harm your body?
No. Your fat cells are made up of fat, but also water. More water than fat, actually.
When you fast, the fat cells must break down to supply the body with fatty acids, some of which are converted to ketones, which are used for energy. This is the main reason why our bodies store fat in the first place -- it is stored energy for future times when food is scarce. It is a natural process.
Dry fasting forces the body to break down the fat cells even faster because the body needs not only the fatty acids, but also needs the water in those cells for various functions of the body. This is why dry fasting makes you lose bodyfat faster than water fasting -- it forces your body to break down those fat cells at a faster rate.
Also, the water in your fat cells is a much healthier type of water for your body than the water you drink.
The water in fat cells that is released during dry fasting is deuterium depleted water, which is healthy for your body. It may also help prevent cancer.
Deuterium depleted water delays tumor progression in mice, dogs, cats and humans.
If a person is underweight already, then they will not be able to dry fast for very long, because they do not have much bodyfat. In that case, 1 meal per day (zero carb) and dry fasting for 23+ hours is probably best.
For people of normal weight or overweight, dry fasting for longer periods is relatively easy to do.
Also, you should understand the feeling of hunger and what it really is. When you get the feeling of hunger, it is not your body saying you NEED to eat. It is your body saying it is TIME to eat.
Ghrelin is the hormone that kicks in at the time of day you usually eat. If you usually eat breakfast, lunch, and dinner, grehlin will kick in around breakfast. If you don't eat, you will feel hungry. But if you ignore it and don't eat, it will go away in an hour or so.
If you keep doing this for a few days, you will eventually not get hungry at breakfast time anymore. If you fast for a few days, after about 3 or 4 days (if you want to go longer), you won't feel hungry at all. Many people report of feeling euphoric.
Personally, I would not go more than 3 or 4, maybe 5, days at most completely dry fasted. The known longest anyone went dry fasted was a man who was locked in jail and they forgot about him. He was in there for 18 days with no food or water, and he survived just fine.
The world record for fasting (not dry, but just drinking water) was a man in the UK who fasted for 374 days. He was over 400 pounds when he started, and under 200 pounds when he ended the fast.
If you ever watch those survival shows with military spec ops guys saying you can't go more than 3 days without water of 21 days without food or you will die, guess what?
They are full of shit.
Also, for trying to kill cancer or other illness, it might be best to not work out with weights. Weight training activates mTOR, which brings anabolic processes into play and works against autophagy. It's like a see-saw. Up/down. One system is up (building the body) while the other is down (breaking down and cleansing the body), or vice versa. They are never both up or both down.

Might not be easy to get someone to agree, but it costs nothing and is worth giving a try.
Here is a medical doctor who advocates fasting for health. Has lots of info on the subject regarding health in general:

Wow, thanks for the thorough feedback. That is all so interesting.
The last time I heard of deuterium water was when the Nazis were making heavy water in Norway and we sabotaged their effort.

Just a random thought.
