"The doctor of the future will give no medicine, but will interest his patients in the care of the human frame, in diet and in the cause and prevention of disease."
- Thomas Edison
"...we routinely see the blood of patients change color as they improve in their health." - Dr. Donsbach, page 66.
Anemia is a shortage of red blood cells. Cancer patients with anemia are 65% more likely to die. - Cancer. 2001 Jun 15;91(12):2214-21
Radiation and chemotherapy often cause anemia.
Two of the world's largest drug companies are paying hundreds of millions of dollars to doctors every year in return for giving their patients anemia medicines, which regulators now say may be unsafe at commonly used doses.
"We know about hydrogen peroxide, but, frankly speaking, we are a profit motivated company and there is no profit in hydrogen peroxide." - Major Drug Company, quoted in McCabe, page 56.
Hydrogen peroxide is water with extra oxygen attached. The formula for water is H2O, and for hydrogen peroxide is H2O2.
In the 1950's, Dr. Reginald Holeman gave cancerous mice hydrogen peroxide in their drinking water. In 60 days the tumors disappeared. - McCabe, page 11.
In the 1980's, Winifred Wirth repeated Dr. Holeman's experiment twice with the same results. - McCabe, page 11.
The response of a tumor to chemotherapy or radiation is directly related to the level of tumor hypoxia. More hypoxia corresponds with greater resistance to treatment as well as increased tendency to metastasize. Testing the level of tumor hypoxia prior to treatment allows dosage of drugs or radiation to be adjusted.
Mice who receive hydrogen peroxide in their drinking water grow much larger and live twice as long. - McCabe, page 34.
3% H2O2 can be added to pets' drinking water at the rate of 1 ounce per quart of non-chlorinated water. - Dr. David Williams.
"We know it is oxygen which does the work of normalizing the joints in arthritis." - Dr. Donsbach, page 37.
Dr. Edward C. Rosenow, author of 450 published medical papers and an associate at the Mayo Clinic for over 60 years...proved over 80 years ago (1914) that bacteria could be found consistently in the lymph nodes that drain joints. He was probably the first scientist to postulate that H2O2 would help arthritis because of its ability to supply oxygen to oxygen-hating organisms causing arthritis (streptococcus viridans). - Dr. Douglass, page 6.
Putrefactive bacteria that break down our body when we die thrive in the absence of oxygen.
Viruses are "anaerobic" creatures which thrive in the absence of oxygen.
- Dr. Kurt Donsbach
Yeast, mold and fungus live in an anaerobic environment.
Most strains of harmful bacteria (and cancer cells) are anaerobic and cannot survive in the presence of oxygen or H2O2. - Dr. David Williams
Suppression of Oxygen/Ozone Therapy
Oxygen is FREE. Obtain all you can by ALWAYS using the full capacity of your lungs when you breathe. Slow, deep breathing.
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) dissolves dental plaque, creates healthy gums, and whitens teeth. A combination of baking soda, xylitol and hydrogen peroxide makes a good toothpaste.
Add to your bath water one pint to one quart of 3% hydrogen peroxide. It invigorates, relieves pain, and stimulates your mind. It reduces stiffness and soreness like no other treatment. We give all our patients a whirlpool bath with the equivalent of one gallon of the 3% in it every other day. - Dr. Donsbach, page 43.
"6 fluid ounces of the 35% food grade hydrogen peroxide is equivalent to 2 quarts of 3%..." - Dr. Donsbach, page 46.
"Use 6 fluid ounces of the 35% food grade hydrogen peroxide in a bathtub full of rather warm water. Be sure that the area you have problems with is fully immersed and soak for 20 minutes or more. I have seen joints that are stiff and sore relieved in just a few baths. Skin problems also respond to this form of use, including rashes, eczema, psoriasis, athletes foot, etc." - Dr. Donsbach, page 46.
" ...do not use more than 15 drops (of 35% H2O2) per enema bag of water." - Dr. Donsbach, page 47. (Editor's note: Healthy intestinal and vaginal bacteria are aerobic and will not be harmed by oxygen. In fact, they will appreciate it, whereas their anerobic competition will be destroyed.)
An effective douche or enema solution can be made using 3 tablespoons of three percent H2O2 in one quart of distilled water. - Dr. David Williams
"If you have a respiratory problem, use 12 ounces of the 3% hydrogen peroxide in one gallon of water in a cool mist vaporizer. It will be very beneficial in a wide variety of conditions such as emphysema, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, bronchitis, pneumonia, etc." - Dr. Donsbach, page 49.
Robert Stroud, the Birdman of Alcatraz, healed birds with hydrogen peroxide and sodium perborate. Sodium perborate in water creates hydrogen peroxide. - McCabe, page 11.
Obesity is actually the biggest killer disease. Overweight people are twice as likely to contract a disease. Clean healthy bodies utilize food more efficiently and effectively. Highly oxygenated people require less food. - McCabe, page 87.
When the body lacks sufficient oxygen, then the body adapts. Foods and wastes are incompletely oxidized and a chain reaction towards ill health begins.
A few drops of 3% hydrogen peroxide in the ears may help remove ear infections.
Jehovah's Witnesses who refuse blood transfusions have been saved by hyperbaric oxygen chambers. Their limited blood supply became saturated with oxygen and the hypoxia (lack of oxygen) was removed.
12 drops of 35% hydrogen peroxide in a quart of milk may be an alternative to pasteurization.
"Ozone selectively inhibited the growth of human cancer cells." - Rao Sweet, et al, Science, 1980.
"The FDA won’t spend a dime on ozone research, but they spent over $1 million intimidating, harassing, and persecuting me alone." - Dr. Jonathan Wright
Researchers have found that, for some reason, the addition of copper to peroxide increases the lethality of peroxide on bacteria by 3,000-fold. - Dr. Douglass, page 63.
There is a definite correlation between mental clarity and more oxygen in the blood.
Hypoxemia or, as Olney called it, "blocked oxidation," followed by fermentation of sugar in cells, is the prime factor in malignant, viral, bacterial, and allergic diseases. - Dr. Douglass.
Being able to increase arterial oxygen levels following a stroke can dramatically influence the degree of brain damage. - Dr. David Williams Alternatives November 2001.
"My wife is quite faithful in tending her roses. She sprays them with a very dilute solution - 8 tablespoonfuls of 3% hydrogen peroxide in a gallon of water - and has the finest roses in the neighborhood. You should also spray the ground at the base of your plants. Spray the same solution on cut flowers and add a little to the water to make them last 50% longer." - Dr. Donsbach, page 49.
The friendly aerobic bacteria in your garden soil will be killed by the chlorine in chlorinated water. It is better to water your garden with oxygenated water.
President's Choice "Green" bleach sold by Loblaw's contains no chlorine. The active ingredient is hydrogen peroxide. The label describes the product as "color-safe, active oxygen bleach".
Chlorination of drinking water removes oxygen. Cooking and over-processing of our foods lowers their oxygen content.
- Dr. David Williams, Alternatives, June 1992.
Dr. Johanna Budwig of Germany has shown that for proper cellular utilization of oxygen to take place, our diets must contain adequate amounts of unsaturated fatty acids. - Dr. David Williams, Alternatives, June 1992. (Use flax oil in your salad dressing to get the omega-3 essential fatty acids recommended by Dr. Johanna Budwig)
DMG (Dimethylglycine) is an inexpensive nutritional supplement that strengthens the body in a wide variety of ways, including helping to prevent hypoxia (low oxygen) by improving oxygen utilization. For this reason, DMG is often used by athletes, however virtually everyone would benefit from supplementing their diet with DMG.
MSM is another nutritional supplement that is often found to increase energy, as well as provide other health benefits.
There are two kinds of iodine used by different parts of the body - elemental iodine and potassium iodide. The use of potassium iodide to protect the thyroid from radioactive iodine only does half the job. It would be better if medical authorities advocated the use of Lugol's solution (a mix of iodine and potassium iodide) so that the breast, ovary and prostate which use elemental iodine are also protected from radioactive iodine. - editor, Alkalize for Health
Iodoral is Lugol's iodine in tablet form.

The brighter red the color of your blood, the more oxygen it carries. The darker its color, the less oxygen it carries.
Arterial blood is generally a brighter red because it has recently passed through the lungs. Venous blood is generally a darker red because it has passed through the capillaries where the oxygen is transferred from the blood to the tissues.
"All normal cells have an absolute requirement for oxygen, but cancer cells can live without oxygen - a rule without exception." - Dr. Otto Warburg, quoted in Philpott, page 74.
Deprive a cell 60% of its oxygen and it will turn cancerous. - McCabe, page 192. Deprive a cell 35% of its oxygen for 48 hours and it may become cancerous. - Dr. Otto Warburg. Read Dr. Warburg's papers in the Library: Lecture 1, Lecture 2.
When the oxygen saturation of blood falls, conditions become ripe for the creation of cancer. Oxygen is removed from the arterial blood as it passes through the capillary system. If arterial blood is deficient in oxygen or if the blood flow is restricted by blocked arteries, then tissues oxygenated by the latter stages of the capillary system may be so deprived of oxygen as to become cancerous. Damage to the arteries also helps cancer spread throughout the body. (See The Terrible Two: Cancer and Circulation).
The oxygen transport system from the lungs to the cells can be interrupted at numerous points, and so there are many opportunities to deny oxygen to cells. Also, there are many ways that cells and their mitochondria can be directly damaged, thereby reducing the cells' ability to utilize the oxygen that is available."

"The High pH Therapy for Cancer Tests on Mice and Humans"
Steps Leading to the Formation of Cancer Cells:
1. Glucose can still enter the cell, but oxygen cannot. The cell thus becomes anaerobic.
2. In the absence of oxygen, the glucose undergoes fermentation to lactic acid. The cell pH then drops to 7 and finally down to 6.5.
3. In the acid medium the DNA loses its positive and negative radical sequence. In addition, the amino acids entering the cell are changed. As a consequence, the RNA is changed and the cell completely loses its control mechanism. Chromosomal aberrations may occur.
4. In the acid medium the various cell enzymes are completely changed into very toxic compounds. These toxins kill the cells in the main body of the tumor mass. A tumor therefore consists of a thin layer of rapidly growing cells surrounding the dead mass. The acid toxins leak out from the tumor mass and poison the host. They thus give rise to the pains generally associated with cancer.
Mass spectrographic and isotope studies have shown that potassium, rubidium, and especially cesium are most efficiently taken up by cancer cells. This uptake was enhanced by Vitamins A and C as well as salts of zinc and selenium. The quantity of cesium taken up was sufficient to raise the cell to the 8 pH range, where cell mitosis ceases and the life of the cell is short. Tests on mice fed cesium and rubidium showed marked shrinkage in the tumor masses within 2 weeks. In addition, the mice showed none of the side effects of cancer. Tests have been carried out on over 30 humans. In each case the tumor masses disappeared.
Also all pains and effects associated with cancer disappeared within 12 to 36 hours. The more chemotherapy and morphine the patient had taken, the longer the withdrawal period. Studies of the food intake in areas where the incidences of cancer are very low showed that it met the requirements for the high pH therapy.
Cesium, rubidium and potassium cations (positively charged ions) are all strong electron receptors which can be attracted into the membrane because of the negative potential gradient which exists across all living membranes. Elements below potassium in the Electromotive Series, like calcium, are only taken up sparingly, if at all, by cancer cells. Therefore potassium, which transports glucose, can readily enter cancer cells, but Calcium, which transports oxygen, cannot. Warburg pointed out this anearobic state of cancer cells in 1925. In the normal cell the glucose, upon entering the cell, reacts with the oxygen in the cell and is burned to carbon dioxide and water with the liberation of heat.
This heat in turn is absorbed on the membrane surface and raises it to an energized state which permits it to attach more Ca++ ions. Thus it will be seen that the amount of oxygen entering the cell is determined by oxidation within the cell, primarily that of glucose. This action is responsible for the pH control mechanism of the cell which maintains a value near 7.35.
The ready uptake of cesium and rubidium by the cancer cells lead the writer to the High pH therapy. This consists of feeding the patient close to 6 g of Cesium Chloride or Rubidium Chloride per day . It is sufficient however to give rise to the pH in the cancer cells, bringing them up in a few days to the 8 or above where the life of the cell is short. In addition, the presence of Cesium and Rubidium salts in the body fluids neutralizes the acid toxins leaking out of the tumor mass and renders them nontoxic.
In tests on mice, tumors implanted where significantly smaller at the end of the test in mice fed Rubidium than the controls. In addition, the test animals were showing none of the adverse effects of having cancer. Similar experiments with cesium chloride had similar successful results. Many tests on humans have been carried out by H. Nieper in Hannover, Germany and by H. Sartori in Washington, DC. It has been observed that all pains associated with cancer disappear within 12 to 24 hours. In these tests 2 gram doses of Cesium Chloride were administered three times per day after eating. In most cases 5 to 10 grams of Vitamin C and 100,000 units of Vitamin A, along with 50 to 100 mg of zinc, were also administered. Both Nieper and Sartori were also administering nitrilosides in the form of laetrile.
There are good reasons to believe that the laetrile may be more effective than the vitamins in enhancing the pickup of cesium by the cells. In addition to the loss of pains, the physical results are a rapid shrinkage of the tumor masses. The material comprising the tumors is secreted as uric acid in the urine; the uric acid content of the urine increases many fold. About 50% of the patients were pronounced terminal, and were not able to work. Of these, a majority have gone back to work. Two side effects have been observed in some of the patients. These are first nausea, and the second diarrhea. Both depend upon the general condition of the digestive tract.
There are a number of areas where the incidences of cancer are very low. At the 1978 Stockholm Conference on Food and Cancer it was concluded that there is definitely a connection between the two.
The Hopi Indians of Arizona have a very low incidence of cancer: 1 in 1000 as compared to 1 in 4 for the USA as a whole. Analysis of their diet shows that it meets the requirements for the high pH therapy. Hopi food is very high in potassium and exceptionally high in rubidium. Since the soil is volcanic it must also be very rich in cesium.
Some 20 years ago the incidence of cancer among the Pueblo Indians was the same as that for the Hopi Indians, but they have adopted a modern American diet and now have the same cancer rate as the rest of the US. Supermarket foods is essentially lacking rubidium and cesium and low in potassium.
Cancer is virtually unknow among the Hunza of North Pakistan and their diet also meets the requirements of the High pH therapy. They are essentially vegetarians, and are great fruit eaters, eating ordinarily 40 apricots per day; they always eat the kernels, either directly or as a meal. They drink at least 4 liters of mineral spring waters which abound in the area and has been found to be very rich in cesium. Since the soil is volcanic in nature, it must be concluded that it will be rich in Cesium and Rubidium, as well as Potassium.
The Indians of Central America and on the highland of Peru and Equador also have very low incidences of cancer. The soil in these areas is volcanic with fruit in the area very high in rubidium and cesium. Cases have been reliably reported where people with advance inoperable cancer have gone to live with these Indians, and found that all tumor masses disappear within a very few months. Clearly the food there meets the high pH requirements.
Cesium and Rubidium salts, when present in the adjacent fluids, the pH of cancer cells will rise to the point where the life of the cell is short, and that they will also neutralize the acid toxins formed in the tumor mass and render them nontoxic.
In later writing, Dr. Brewer wrote: "The goal of the high pH therapy is the transport of large quantities of Cs+ Rb+ and glucose-free K+ across the membranes of cancer cells. During high pH therapy, Dr. H. Nieper, M.D., observed a loss of potassium which should be replaced." Two booklets discussing Dr. Brewer's final theories about cesium are available from the Brewer Science Library: "High pH Cancer Therapy with Cesium," and "Cancer Its Nature and a Proposed Treatment," both by A. Keith Brewer, Ph.D.

KILL CANCER CELLS
Cancer is characterized by proliferation of abnormal cells which multiply out of control, destroying healthy tissue and endangering life. This unchecked "cancerous" growth spreads throughout the body, interfering with the ability of cells, organs, and other structures to perform their normal functions.

How to Do the Saliva pH Test Strips
strong>Wait at least 2 hours after eating. Fill your mouth with saliva and then swallow it. Do this again to help ensure that the saliva is clean. Then the third time, put some saliva onto pH paper.
The pH paper should turn blue. This indicates that your saliva is slightly alkaline at a healthy pH of 7.4. If it is not blue, compare the color with the chart that comes with the pH paper. If your saliva is acid (below pH of 7.0) wait two hours and repeat the test.
There are many suppliers of pH paper. Look for laboratory suppliers in the phone book. You want narrow range pH paper measuring pH 4.5 to 7.5 or pH 4.5 to 8.5. One source is Micro Essential Laboratory Inc., Brooklyn, N.Y. 11210 telephone 718-338-3618. They will send you a catalogue. When sending a container of pH paper through the mail to a friend, a single roll dispenser (catalog #334 that measures pH 4.5 - 7.5) is quite sturdy and should not break. However, the Jumbo strips (catalog #3827) in the more fragile plastic tube container are larger and easier to read. These pH strips to measure acid/alkaline balance belong in every family medicine kit, right beside the thermometer to measure body temperature.
Saliva pH and Cancer
"When healthy, the pH of blood is 7.4, the pH of spinal fluid is 7.4, and the pH of saliva is 7.4. Thus the pH of saliva parallels the extra cellular fluid...pH test of saliva represents the most consistent and most definitive physical sign of the ionic calcium deficiency syndrome...
The pH of the non-deficient and healthy person is in the 7.5 (dark blue) to 7.1 (blue) slightly alkaline range. The range from 6.5 (blue-green) which is weakly acidic to 4.5 (light yellow) which is strongly acidic represents states from mildly deficient to strongly deficient, respectively. Most children are dark blue, a pH of 7.5. Over half of adults are green-yellow, a pH of 6.5 or lower, reflecting the calcium deficiency of aging and lifestyle defects. Cancer patients are usually a bright yellow, a pH of 4.5, especially when terminal.
