Cut Poison Burn

3 Comments 24 September 2011

If you have a child diagnosed with cancer the government can force you to subject your child to chemotherapy and radiation treatments. And if you don't comply, Child Protective Services can take your child away. Hard to believe, but it's true. Cut Poison Burn is a very powerful documentary about the Cancer Industry and the Navarro family's fight with the government to get the cancer treatment of their choice for their little boy. I watched an advance screening of this film and met the producer at the Cancer Control Convention in LA, Labor Day weekend 2011. Every American should watch this film.

Q&A: How Effective is Chemotherapy?

18 Comments 06 August 2011

I received an email yesterday that I decided to answer on the blog. Here it is: "My wife found your blog and I find it very inspirational and resourceful. I've been diagnosed with Stage 3 cancer just like yours, but unlike your tumor, mine is located in the lower part of the rectal area. I have visited the oncologists and surgeons, they said the best way is to go through Chemo and Radiation in order to shrink the tumor size small enough to remove it during surgery. I will begin my treatment next week, the Chemo I'll be taking is the pill that I'll have to consume twice a day for 6 weeks with radiation. The doctors said I will be required to go through another chemo therapy after surgery, which would be different chemo treatment (through IV). That's where my wife feel most uncomfortable and began researching different options such as alternative therapy. And she found your blog with some insightful information. I changed my diet to raw organic vegetables the day I was informed that I had cancer. It was a life changing moment and left me a little confused what's on the horizon for me. Instead I began to eat more raw organic food and exercise than I have done before (I have been eating organic food and exercising moderately for years). While I have read through some of your blogs and stories, I know you mentioned that you had surgery to remove part of the large intestine and forego chemo and radiation with alternative therapy. I am still confused about the part when you had surgery...Did you have any treatment before your surgery? I understand your blog and stories mostly mention after surgery treatment but maybe I overlooked somewhere that says anything about before surgery? I am curious to know because my age is slightly older than your age right now and I have two young daughters, too. I just do hope that everything posted on your website is true. I am not doubting anything but I do praise your recovery and living cancer free. That's my goal too." Regards, Tris Continue reading for my answer and a surprising study about the effectiveness of chemotherapy.

Burzynski The Movie: Cancer Is Serious Business

13 Comments 13 June 2011

In 2004 I was resarching alternative cancer therapies and heard about Dr. Stanley Burzynski in Houston, Texas. I was told that he had developed a non-toxic "alternative" therapy that was more effective than chemo or radiation on even the most aggressive cancers.  So yeah, he was on my short list of doctors to see if I my natural approach didn't work. "Burzynski The Movie: Cancer Is Serious Business" documents the amazing cancer treatment discovered by Dr. Burzynski called Antineoplastons and how the FDA and the National Cancer Institute tried to shut down his clinic, prove his therapy didn't work, and put him in jail while the U.S. Government tried to steal his patent. Really! Micah and I just watched this and it is so freaking awesome I almost exploded.

Green Smoothies, Budwig, and Essiac: Cortney’s Lymphoma Survival Story

24 Comments 03 February 2011

In early January I received a message through the blog from a young woman diagnosed with cancer at 26, just like me. She shared a little bit about her survival story and alternative therapy strategy. I thought it was so great that I asked her if she would do an interview. And she said yes! Instead of chemotherapy she decided to make hardcore diet and lifestyle changes along with alternative therapies, and had a huge surprise along the way. I really enjoyed this interview and I know you will too. Very powerful stuff.

Breast Cancer at 32, What to do?

50 Comments 28 January 2011

Hi Chris, I stumbled across your website when I was looking for alternatives to Chemotherapy. I believe what you have done is very courageous and inspiring. I am 32 and have been diagnosed with Breast Cancer, no family history, generally healthy - so totally shocking. I have had 2 lots of surgery and the tumour was removed and my lymph nodes were clear. I am due to start Chemotherapy on Tuesday and I am scared. Since my diagnoses, I have changed my diet completely, pretty much vegan now and feel the healthiest I have felt in a long time. I have researched into healing myself with food and alternative therapies and it just makes sense to me, but there is also something in me that is saying I need to do the mainstream treatment as well, but the closer I get to it the crazier it seems, why would I want to go and get pumped full of toxic chemicals that will destroy my immune system when I feel so healthy and in tune with my body? I have already been given Zoladex (meant to suppress ovaries - in the hope to remain fertile) and already I notice the changes in my body, not sleeping, spaced out and off my food. I just can't imagine putting my body through this for 5 months with ongoing treatment for another 5 years.. I wish I had the courage you had. What do you think of doing the mainstream treatment alongside a plant based diet and alternate therapies?? Or is it counteractive? I am confused!! The hospital system here (Hervey Bay, Australia) just seem to want to through every treatment at me, Chemotherapy, Radiation, Herceptin for a year and hormone treatment for a following 5 years - they're reasoning for this is because of my age and that the tumor was grade 3 & triple positive - but the cancer could potentially all be gone already?? And when I ask what is the cause of my cancer, they say "its just one of those things" Isn't that ridiculous. I would appreciated any comments you have, you can be as blunt as you like. Maybe that's what I need. Thanks for taking the time to read my mail, and thanks for sharing your story. Kellee

THE BUSINE$$ OF CHEMO

4 Comments 15 August 2010

In January of 2004, one month after my surgery, my wife Micah and I went to the cancer clinic for the first time. It didn't go so well. I had already decided against chemotherapy after researching successful alternative therapies. To my dismay, my decision was not well received by my wife, family and friends. After many heartfelt and well-meaning "interventions", I reluctantly agreed to go meet with an oncologist to hear what he had to say.

Anti-Angiogenesis: Foods That Fight Cancer

1 Comment 12 July 2010

An unhealthy diet is a proven cause of disease. In fact, three out of four Americans die every year from diet related diseases such as cancer, heart disease, high blood pressure, stroke, and diabetes. So it's exciting to see scientific research proving what natural health practitioners have told us for the last 2,400 years. In this 20 minute video presentation William Li presents a new way to think about treating cancer and other diseases: anti-angiogenesis, foods that prevent the growth of blood vessels that feed a tumor.

Hi there!

My name is Chris Wark.
I was diagnosed with Stage 3 Colon Cancer in 2003, at the ripe old age of 26.
I had surgery, but refused chemo.
Instead I radically changed my diet and did every natural, non-toxic, alternative therapy I could find.
By the grace of God, I'm alive and kicking, and cancer-free!
People are always asking me about it, so I started this blog to share how I transformed my health and beat cancer without chemo.
This information saved my life!
