Adjunctive Immune Support

The use of GlycoEssential 7 along with Conventional Treatment

The single most important thing you may ever read on cancer treatment.

Cancer results from the body failing to recognize and destroy cells that do not replicate normally. Why? In the average human, about 100,000,000 cells replicate every day. Just by the shear number of cells replicating, some of them will replicate with errors. And one of the main functions of the Immune System is to identify and destroy these aberrant cells. It is only when the immune system fails to either recognizes the bad cells, or if it does recognize them it fails to destroy them, that it becomes cancer. This means that cancer is first and foremost an immune dysfunction disease. If the Immune System were working perfectly there would have been no chance for the cancer to begin. It would be destroyed on a cell-by-cell basis as it happened. This is actually the process that occurs in almost everyone from the moment of birth. But sometimes errors happen.
For cancer to occur, there are three things that must take place:

The point at which the tumor is large enough to detect can take a long time, even as long as 10 years. But by the time it is large enough to detect, it is already hundreds of millions of cells in size. By this point it is very difficult for the immune system to mount an effective defense against the invader, the tumor.

The concept of cancer treatment followed in America is essentially to cut, burn and poison in an attempt to kill off the bad cells (cancer cells) while supporting the good cells (healthy cells). Surgery, chemotherapy and radiation are the methods of choice, the best we have to offer. While this may be the best treatment option available in America today, most of the world adds another component to these standard methods. Adjunctive Immune Support.

The largest class of anti-cancer drugs being used in the world today is the polysaccharide immunomodulators. These are the compounds that trigger Immune Function. They bind to surface receptors on the various Immune cells and activate them. They either turn the cell on, or turn it off, or trigger the production of more of those cells or trigger the release of cytokines such as the chemical substance called Tumor Necrosis Factor. The reason this Immune System adjunct therapy being used along with conventional therapy is essentially as follows:

Some might say it is easy to get rid of cancer. You can simply take a knife and cut it out. But unfortunately, in doing so you have not removed the cause of the cancer, which is the immune dysfunction that allowed the cancer to proliferate in the first place. Nor have you addressed this cause when you kill the tumor off with chemotherapy, or if you burn the tumor out with radiation. All of these methods are useful, but ultimately they will fail unless adequate steps are taken to trigger an effective and appropriate Immune Response. With conventional cancer treatment the recurrence rate is so high that doctors in America are forbidden to even use the word “Cure”. They are required to use the term “In Remission” instead. That is because we know that the cancer is almost certain to return in the next 5 years. Why? Because the same cause that allowed the cancer to start the first time around is still present after all the chemo and the radiation and the surgery are over and done with.

Most people won’t change their eating habits. Or their stress levels, or move to a place with lower EMFs and less chemical pollutants in the soil and water. But once cancer occurs, these are some logical steps to take. Eat right. Drink clean water. Stay away from toxic chemicals. Quit Smoking. If you live in the farmland where everyday someone is spraying pesticides and herbicides, move away. These are just logical, common sense steps you can take to reduce the likelihood of a reoccurrence of the cancer.

But by all means, the most important thing you can do is taking a daily supplement to optimize your Immune Function. There are several good ones on the market. The best is GlycoEssential 7, but there are other good ones as well. MGN-3™ and AHCC™ from Diawa Pharmaceuticals are both good, although GlycoEssential 7 has more of the same active ingredients than either of those products. Transfer Factor Plus™ by 4Life Research is another good product, and works by a different mechanism than the others mentioned. The combination of Transfer Factor Plus™ and GlycoEssential 7 together may have the most powerful effect, as well as being quick acting. Most people on this combination experience dramatic improvements within the first ten days of use. Once you see it for yourself, there is not much question of whether it works or not.

While there are only a few clinics and doctors in America who are willing to speak out for this type of alternative combination therapy, this type of treatment is the norm rather than the exception in almost all other countries. America has the lowest remission rate for cancer of any country today. To assume that somehow U.S. doctors are better than German doctors, or British, or Japanese or French doctors is unfounded to say the least. As time goes by though, more and more American doctors are risking the censure of the AMA and FDA, and are using these combination therapies with their patients. Those that are willing to go outside of the box with their treatment methodology are experiencing greater results than those that refuse anything not being sold by the big U.S. Pharmaceutical companies.

Ultimately, it is our own decision, each and every one of us, to try and maintain good health or not. We make decisions on a day-by-day basis that affect our long-term health. When we were 20, life seemed so long and the grave so distant that we thought we could get away with anything. As life goes on though, we realize more and more the importance of good health. Now is the time to take the decision into your own hands. Go with your doctors advice, but don't fear to add what common sense tells you is right. If your doctor resists this, then please refer him to this and other health websites. We are proud to share our research materials with anyone who takes the time to ask. There are more than 10,000 independent research papers available on polysaccharide immune modulators and their use in cancer treatment. These are research papers from the National Institute of Health, Harvard, Japanese Cancer Society and all of the other major, mainstream research organizations. When someone says, “"Why aren't these methods being more widely used in cancer treatment?"” We can only point out that these are naturally occurring compounds and therefore difficult to patent. It is unfortunate that money rules medicine, but there are many cases where this is true. Until these immunomodulator compounds are synthesized and patented, the large U.S. Pharmaceutical companies will not bring them out. And when they do, you can bet your life they will cost a few bucks more than they do now.
