Grape Seed Extract May Beat Chemo in Late-Stage CancerHeidi Stevenson The more advanced cancer is, the less effective chemotherapy is. However, a new study has shown that grape seed extract has exactly the opposite quality: The more advanced the cancer, the less extract thats needed to kill it. On top of that, the study also shows that grape seed extracttargets the cancer cells that become most resistant to chemotherapy. In the face of this remarkable new development, its likely that grape seed extract is more effective in treating late-stage cancer than modern medicines chemotherapy. Not only does it take less and less of the substance to kill cancer cells, its able to target the cells that have become drug resistant, thus making chemo useless! Yet again, the common misperception that modern medicines treatments are stronger or more potent or better in any way is shown to be mistaken. Sadly, its a mistake that can kill. Once a plausible mode of action idea has caught on, research funds get directed towards it. A search goes on to find ways to control that presumed connection. Thats why we have statins. Theyre associated with heart disease. They dont cause it, but a seemingly plausible theory was produced saying that cholesterol causes heart disease. Therefore, since statins can reduce cholesterol, theyre the first thing a doctor prescribes when someone has any sort of heart disease signeven just being past the age of 40 or 50. Statins dont produce health. In fact, they destroy it, causing memory loss, muscle damage, and death. But theyre a perfect example of a plausible idea getting research funding, drugs being developed to cause a change in a marker, doctors prescribing it, and enormous profits getting funneled to Big Pharma. Ultimately, does it matter whether a treatment can meet some arbitrary marker, or is it more important that it heals you? The answer should be obviousand it is to everyone but a medical system thats gone awry. Modern medicine wants a product thats owned by Big Pharma because that apparently means its science-based. That it invariably costs an exorbitant amount and doesnt cure isnt of concern. All that matters is that arbitrary markers be met. Therefore, while its interesting to learn something about how a treatment works, lets get on with it. Lets focus on the fact that grape seed extract does work and inform people so they can take advantage of it. Every item in this list comes from a scientific study. We must all make our own choices regarding health. However, the medical world is waiting for a Big Pharma-sanctioned product made from grape seedsone that will likely have been sliced and diced until all symbiotic interactions with other ingredients are lost and harmful effects naturally mitigated through that symbiotic action are enhanced. Until that time, you wont see grape seed extract offered by any modern medical doctor. But that doesnt mean you cant take it. At least, right now. The day is coming when agencies like the FDA will tell us that we dont have that right, as discussed in FDA Gives Sole Herbal Product Rights to Big Pharma. Were already seeing parents denied the right to have their childrens medical needs treated naturally. If you care about your health, be sure that you can maintain access to all those natural substances that Big Pharma is maneuvering to have taken from us. Heidi Stevenson is Allopathys Gadfly.
