The Budwig Anti-Cancer Diet -
"by Lynn Hinderliter
Middle Earth Inc.
When I learned that a CT scan had detected a large tumor in my abdomen, my first re-action was "where do I turn"?
I find this ironic, since of all people you would think I would have the process at my finger tips. This kind of news, however, is overwhelming: knowing that whether at this point one choosesthe correct path will determine life or death, can focus the mind wonderfully.
My first step was to discuss with my husband how we should react to this news. My proposal was to take a 3 month period, implement all the therapies I chose, and then check our results and make further decisions based on that. Fortunately, I have a supportive and unique husband, who also works along with me here at our business!
I had heard of the Budwig diet previously, but the concept of cottage cheese and flax poll affecting the outcome of a killer cancer -
nno, it sounded ridiculous.
Research changed my mind. Reading Dr. Budwig's books changed my mind. And the (admittedly ongoing - admittedly not the only thing I am doing) results confirm my choice. I want to put that in right here, so you know that the results to date are cautiously positive.
I also would like to add that this diet has applications beyond cancer:
Dr. Budwig recommended it to help most chronic diseases
My first criterion for a viable therapy, was that it not be something I was being sold. In other words, I was not looking for a solution or product based on testimonials, preying on the desperation of the cancer victim, nor something I had to pay a fortune to go to a specific clinic to experience.
This cut out a number of possibly valuable therapies: even with my life at stake, our resources are limited. My thinking was, there are no guarantees: if we spend everything, and then the result is still negative - the only thing that would have changed is that I would leave my family penniless.
At this point too, I think it would be appropriate to express my anger at the health system in this country , the only major industrial country where you have to be rich or old to get the treatment you need for a deadly disease.
I fall into the latter category, or probably even the CT scan
would have been beyond my means.
Dr. Johanna Budwig died in 2004 at the age of 94. She was a German Biochemist who became interested in the relationship between fatty acids, and chronic disease. She built her theory on the research of Dr. Szent Gyorgy, who won the Nobel prize in 1937 for showing that essential fatty acids need sulfur containing amino acids to carry oxygen to the cell, and that of Dr. Warburg, who won the Nobel prize in 1931 for proving that cancer cannot grow where oxygen is present in high enough concentrations.
Interview with Dr. Budwig The Budwig Diet - guidelines. Warning: total dedication required: I did not have time to do much else!! :0) The diet requires the elimination of
any sugar not naturally present in food
red meat
hydrogenated and animal fats
almost all alcohol (except the champagne)
all caffeine ( except the occasional cup of black tea before noon).
white flour, white rice and other denatured grains
preservatives, chemicals and processed foods.
Daily exposure to sunlight is important. Foods should be fresh, preferably organic and eaten raw where possible, or very lightly cooked. Cook fresh every day - no re-heating!
This is the routine:
First thing in the morning, a glass of sauerkraut juice.
For breakfast, green tea and either a Budwig smoothie, or the Budwig Muesli.
Midmorning -freshly juiced vegetable combo juice, : mainly carrot juice.
Before lunch: 2 tblsps ground flax stirred into a small glass of champagne
Salad with the Budwig dressing/Mayonnaise. OR steamed fresh veggies with nutritional yeast flakes and Budwig's OLEOLUX. Desert: one of her recipes with fresh fruits and the flaxseed/cottage cheese (CC) blend.
Mid afternoon: 2 tblsps ground flax stirred into a glass of papaya juice. Early evening: 2 tblsps ground flax stirred into a small glass of champagne
Soup from fresh veggies serve with nutritional yeast and the OLEOLUX.
Follow the links for recipes for the mainstays of the diet, and note a link to her books in RESOURCES at right.
I followed this regimen strictly for 2 months, then was forced to make some changes. For example, the champagne mid-morning made me sleepy: at first, I think that was beneficial because my energy was depleted.
I replaced that with papaya juice and flax.
I added Essiac after the sauerkraut and before bed.
I moved the fresh juice to the afternoon to better reflect my work habits.
I also have to tell you, though this would never be my choice, nor my recommendation, that there have been people who have simply added the cottage cheese mixture and done nothing else, and have still seen results. My question would be, if you do the regimen partially and do NOT experience results, who do you blame?? Who can tell which detail it is that is the deciding factor for you? No, all or nothing is my motto here!
It was also important for me to be choosing my foods from those high in B17, or laetrile. I have not yet added the actual apricot pits, but am planning on doing so. Foods high in laetrile are the following:
Apple seeds, alfalfa sprouts, apricot kernels, bamboo shoots, barley, beet tops, bitter almond, blackberries, boysenberries, brewer’s yeast, brown rice, buckwheat, cashews, cherry kernels, cranberries, currants, fava beans, flax seeds, garbanzo beans, gooseberries, huckleberries, lentils, lima beans, linseed meat, loganberries, macadamia nuts, millet, millet seed, peach kernels, pecans, plum kernels, quince, raspberries, sorghum cane syrup, spinach, sprouts (alfalfa, lentil, mung bean, buckwheat, garbanzo), strawberries, walnuts, watercress, yams.
Read the other articles in this series ( see RESOURCES at right) to see what other strategies I implemented to address this tumor. I will say that at the end of the 3 month period, the main tumor had regressed by 1/2 centimeter, and the many other lymph nodes which were enlarged on the original scan, now all measured under 1 cm, which is arbitrarily considered to be the danger mark.
Generally, the Budwig Diet is considered to show some effect by 90 days my understanding is that she claimed it then took up to 5 years for the disease to be totally controlled.
For those who are allergic to dairy products - no useful studies have been done comparing the results of people using alternatives such as yoghurt,
so there is no good substitute I can recommend. Remember, though, that mixing the flax with the cottage cheese in this manner changes the consistency of the food - changes it almost into another food altogether: so perhaps we need to rely on Dr. Budwig's comment that she has never had a patient who couldn't tolerate quark (cottage cheese) as part of her Oil-Protein Diet.
Monitoring my progress
I should have known better, of course. All my studies had convinced me that cancer could not grow in a body with an alkaline pH, yet over the years, I had never managed to keep my results anything but acid - I react very badly to stress, and even all the right things I did with diet and lifestyle were not enough to move my readings into the beautiful green area on the litmus paper where they should be.
I made sure I had a good supply of pH strips on hand, and immediately after starting the Budwig diet, I was comforted to see my pH readings perfectly alkaline: I have been sure to check every day that they remain where they should be.
Recipe for Dr. Budwig's Muesli
6 tblsps organic, low fat cottage cheese
3 tblsps flax oil
2 tblsps milk9 raw and/or unhomogenized)
1 tsp honey
2 tblsp ground flax seed
Fresh fruit and berries to taste
Blend in blender until no oil is visible.
This really does taste good. I added 1 tblsp Tart Cherry concentrate to the mix, and did well for quite a while. However, I have a problem eating "thick" food, and after a while it began to gag me. I switched to making it into a shake - just upping the milk content - and had no further problem Recipe for Dr. Budwig's Salad Dressing/ Mayonnaise
2 tblsps Flax Oil
4 tblsps organic, low fat cottage cheese
2 tblsps milk (preferably raw and/or unhomogenized)
2 tbsps of Lemon juice or Apple Cider Vinegar.
Blend together, and add: mustard, chopped (organic) pickles, spices and herbs to taste. I used a small half pint canning jar on my blender.
Recipe for Dr. Budwig's OleoLux 9 tblsps Flax Oil
18 tblsps Coconut Oil, no chemicals
half a medium onion
10 cloves of garlic.
Heat the coconut oil, add chipped onion and garlic, and cook until lightly browned. Strain through sieve, and let cool slightly. Add to flax oil, and refrigerate.
The Vitamin Lady's Juice combo Couple of slices fresh ginger
2 cloves garlic
1/4 lemon
1 apple
2 lbs carrots
Some broccoli, zucchini, beet or other solid fresh veggie
Some kale, chard, bok choy, spinach or other leafy green
Some pineapple, strawberries, blueberries or other soft fresh berry/fruit 2tblsps ground flax
Powdered muscadine grape
Aloe vera juice - 1 or 2 fl.oz
Noni juice - 1 fl.oz

Fucoidan - Causes Cancer
Fucoidan has scientifically been proven to enhance the immune system and cellular health to the point where it helps heal wounds, supports normal blood pressure, detoxifies the body against heavy metals, helps prevent the common colds and flu as well as, yes fight Cancer.
Fucoidan strengthens our immune system and helps keep it in balance.
U-Fucoidan: Anti-Cancer Substance
Cancer treatments place the entire body in jeopardy in order to kill cancer cells and unfortunately healthy cells get damaged and the immune system is placed in total shock in the process.
• Fucoidan supports the normal disposal of non-native cells.
• Fucoidan may help stimulate immune response when the body is attacked.
• Fucoidan supports normal cellular health.
• Fucoidan supports blood circulation to native body cells.
• Fucoidan may help regenerate healthy skin tissue.
• Fucoidan supports healthy joint mobility at all ages.
Fucoidan is said to be the Ultimate Molecular Immunity Boost.
U-Fucoidan is said to Cause Cancer Cells to Self-Destruct.
Fucoidan is a sulfated polysaccharide that possesses a complex structure. Its chief components include a sulfuric esterified L-fucose, and the trace elements of galactose, xylose, and glucuronic acid.
In the presence of certain substances, as well as under other unusual environmental conditions, cells may self-destruct and disappear altogether. This self-destruct phenomenon is known as apoptosis. It should be distinguished from necrosis, which is the death of cells directly brought about by external stimuli such as poisonous substances or physical damage to the cell.
Properly speaking, apoptosis is brought about by a mechanism that is programmed into the natural makeup of cells. Organisms activate this mechanism when necessary.
Once the apoptosis mechanism has been triggered, the genetic blueprint of the cell (DNA) is rendered useless, through activation of the deoxyribonuclease found within the cell itself. Apoptosis thus can be described as a natural means through which living organisms manage to eliminate harmful cells from their systems.
Konbu (Laminaria ssp.) contains a substance that causes cancer cells to self-destruct. It has only been recently discovered in Japan that this substance is U-fucoidan, a complex polysaccharide, one among many polysaccharides found in konbu. In research in Japan, U-fucoidan administered to cancer cells in a laboratory dish were virtually wiped out within 72 hours. The process by which these cells withered away was self-induced, in that the DNA within each of the cancer cells was broken down by digestive enzymes contained in the cells themselves.
This process is known by the technical term "apoptosis".
Although U-fucoidan is found in other seaweeds and plants, konbu is particularly rich in this substance. And, very importantly, in order to consume fucoidan in its pure and effective form, one has to eat konbu raw or dried without heating. It is interesting to note that Okinawa, Japan has the lowest cancer mortality rate in Japan where the people eat their konbu mostly, versus other parts of Japan where it is used mostly in cooking.
(Reference: Takara Shuzo Co., Ltd. Biomedical Group, Otsu, Shiga, Japan)
Modifilan contains nothing but the central vein of Laminaria which has been gently dried without heating, and without any chemical sprays or preservatives. Modifilan, unlike plain dried seaweed, contains a much higher percentage of complex polysaccharides or alginates (40%), in which the U-fucoidan is contained.

If you Give Your Body the Tools it Needs,
You may just Be Shocked at what your Body can do
For and With You.
Your immune system works on three different levels. The first level is the anatomic response. It consists of anatomical barriers to foreign particles and it includes the skin and acid in the stomach. Anatomic barriers prevent foreign substances from entering the body.
If foreign particles pass through the first line of defense the second line of defense called the inflammatory response kicks in. The third line of defense is the immune response. It is the main player in specific immune defense.
In order for cancer to occur, the immune system must have failed. The normal sequence of events when the immune system comes across tumor cells follows.
An immune cell called the macrophage (also called a monocyte) comes into contact with a cancerous or precancerous cell. This cell has some strange surface features. The strange features signal the macrophage that the cell is not healthy and that the macrophage should take a bite out of it.

Natural Cures - Last Resort
Why Not Try what is Natural First, and Western Medicine, Mutilations Surgery, Chemo, and Burning as a Last Resort. So many folks that end up healing with Natural Cures have been failed by Western medicine and told to go home and make themselves comfortable. After hearing there is no cure – some go ahead and make themselves comfortable and others seek out Alternative Therapies.
Why Not Seek Alternative First before you have body parts removed and let folks cut on you and “Experiment” with you.
Your Worth The Best First.
