The Power of Repurposed Drugs and Natural Compounds in the Fight against Cancer

With the advent of the BCF education review, combating cancer has taken a paradigm shift towards employing a wholesome, well-rounded strategy. The approach incorporates facets of lifestyle modifications, non-toxic metabolic treatments, and the prudent use of repurposed drugs and natural compounds. This program aims to repair the immune system, foster an alkaline environment within the body, provide essential supplements, minerals and enhance the detoxification processes – all contributing to a more potent defense against cancer.

Firstly, it's crucial to understand that oncologists typically do not prescribe herbs or supplements. Instead, our approach is to guide you through comprehensive cancer-fighting strategies. These strategies aim not only to defeat the disease but also to nurture the individual, fostering a robust, healthy body that is optimized to resist cancer.

Repurposed Drugs: A New Dawn in Cancer Treatment

Several drugs, initially not designed for cancer treatment, surprisingly show promising anti-cancer properties. These benefits might include cutting blood sugar levels, reducing inflammation, lowering platelets, and, importantly, possessing the potential to attack and kill cancer cells. Such repurposed drugs may offer compelling advantages in terms of safety and cost-effectiveness compared to new drug development.

However, it's essential to judiciously choose the right compounds to construct an anti-cancer program that considers each individual's unique needs and condition.

Evidence-Based Functional Medicine: The Underpinning Philosophy

At the core of this approach lies the philosophy of functional medicine, as aptly stated by Dr. Henry Friedman, "It is naive to believe you can treat a cancer with one drug." Functional medicine underscores the principle of treating the person as a whole, aiming to create a body conducive to health rather than merely eradicating the disease.

Hence, as Hippocrates said, “healing people starts in the gut, because that's where illness starts”. We also believe health is driven outwards from the gut microbiome.

Your microbiome and your gut lining control 85 percent of your immune response. 85 percent of immune cells being present in the gut, there is an intricate interplay between the intestinal microbiota, the intestinal epithelial layer, and the local mucosal immune system. Do you want to diminish your gut it when you are trying to fight cancer?

“Should you be diagnosed with cancer, it indicates your body has inadvertently become a hospitable environment for the disease. Our objective is to assist you in restructuring your body into a fortress of health, creating an environment where cancer struggles to thrive.”

Beat Cancer Foundation uses a mixture of Enhancing and Repairing the immune system, Diet, Exercise, Supplements, Herbs, Repurpose Drugs, and Detoxing. Please understand you can help fight your cancer, alongside or instead of conventional treatments. See our Elite Eleven Approach:

Purposes for the Elite Eleven Approach & Customizing Treatment Strategies

Recognizing that every individual and their cancer are unique, we advocate for tailored treatment approach.

1. Intake & Assessment

To build a health-promoting environment, we need a thorough understanding of your current health status. This first stage involves meticulous collection and analysis of your health data.

2. Repairing the Immune System

Central to this journey is the restoration of the immune system, focusing mainly on gut health. By creating an optimal environment in your gut, we're empowering your body's natural defense system.

3. Alkalizing Diets

We propose diets that create an alkaline environment hostile to cancer. These diets offer the necessary nutritional support while also starving the cancer cells.

4. Non-toxic Treatment Evaluation

We closely evaluate non-toxic treatments to identify those with the best potential to bolster your cancer-fighting regimen without debilitating side effects.

5. Repurposed Drugs

Many non-cancer drugs show promising anti-cancer potential. For example, Fenbendazole has exhibited promising results in cancer research. It has been studied for its effectiveness against cancers like GBM, NSCLC, lymphoma, metastatic colorectal cancer, and prostate cancer.

6. Alternative Therapies

We also explore a range of alternative therapies that might be complementary to your treatment regimen.

7. Complementary Supplements

The BCF program highlights a spectrum of natural compounds, from herbs to supplements, that are known to inhibit cancer growth, and some even enhancing the efficacy of conventional treatments. These include but are not limited to Berberine, Resveratrol, EGCG, Turmeric, Sulforaphane, Genistein, Ursolic acid, Piperine, and Feverfew.

8. Exercise

Exercise is crucial for individuals battling cancer as it triggers the release of myokines, proteins that aid the immune system in combating and even eradicating cancer cells. Incorporating moderate activities like walking and strength training can counteract the muscle loss that frequently occurs during cancer treatment and recovery.

9. Eliminating Cancer Stem Cells

Aiming to reduce the stubborn cancer stem cells that evade standard care, we rely on drugs like Doxycycline or natural compounds that target these elusive cells.

10. Detoxification

Detoxing, a pivotal step in the program, aims to purge the body of harmful toxins that can exacerbate cancer or hamper its treatment.

11. Preventing Cancer Recurrence

Our final objective is to arm your body against recurrence, enabling it to maintain the balance achieved through the program.

By understanding these repurposed drugs and their potential benefits, patients and practitioners can tap into a powerful arsenal in the battle against cancer. Harnessing these underutilized resources could revolutionize cancer treatment and survival rates, helping us make significant strides toward a future free of cancer.

Providing assistance in establishing a repurposed drug program

1. For accessing these repurposed drugs, you may need to find an online group of prescribers. Additionally, you could consider incorporating natural compounds like berberine and lycopene that work similarly to some of the mentioned drugs, or drugs like Metformin and Atorvastatin that could potentially have anti-cancer benefits.

2. Cancer uses histamines to form tumors and spread. Anti-histamines like cimetidine, desloratadine, and loratadine have been shown to increase survival times in cases of colorectal and breast cancer.

3. Beta-blockers like propranolol have shown promise in increasing survival times for a range of cancers, including ovarian, colorectal, breast, pancreatic, stomach, prostate, leukemia, angiosarcoma, and lung cancer.

4. Also, you might want to explore natural compounds known to correct cancer stem cells like vitamin D3, feverfew, ursolic acid, EGCG, genistein, lycopene, curcumin, resveratrol, ashwagandha, and delphinidin.

5. Some additional off-label drugs to consider include Low Dose Naltrexone, or LDN, which can boost the immune system and provide some pain relief, and drugs like Celebrex, which has a unique dual-action approach against cancer.

Let’s start to build a body conducive to health and beating cancer. If repurpose drugs can help you, you should use them.

5 Common Denominators of Individuals with Cancer:

1. Weak Gut Health: Many individuals with cancer have a weakened gut that lacks sufficient acidity and beneficial bacteria. A robust immune system plays a pivotal role in combating cancer cells, and a healthy gut with good bacteria contributes significantly to immune strength. Approximately 85 percent of your immune memory is generated in response to the presence of gut bacteria.

2. Acidic Body pH: Cancer thrives in an acidic environment, typically with pH levels ranging from 5.5 to 6.2. On the contrary, an alkaline body with pH levels between 7.25 and 7.45 is crucial. Extensive research suggests that cancer flourishes in an acidic setting but deteriorates and dies in an alkaline one. Therefore, maintaining an alkaline environment is essential for combating cancer.

3. Low Oxygen Levels: Adequate oxygen supply to your blood cells is essential, as cancer cells can’t live in the presence of high oxygen levels. Unlike healthy cells, cancer cells do not utilize oxygen for their metabolic processes. Ensuring optimal oxygen levels in your bloodstream and cells can help kill cancer growth.

4. Dietary Choices: Individuals who haven't made dietary changes to restrict the nourishment of cancer cells face challenges in combating the disease. Both healthy cells and cancer cells rely on glucose as their primary energy source. While healthy cells can adapt to alternative energy sources like ketone bodies, cancer cells are heavily dependent on glucose. They require substantial energy for growth, which is why they possess about 15 times more insulin receptor sites. Medical professionals use glucose in conjunction with radiological dyes during PET scans to identify cancerous tissues. Adopting a diet that provides essential nutrients while starving cancer cells of glucose is crucial.

5. Overlooking Cancer Stem Cells: Many individuals do not address cancer stem cells effectively, which are the primary reason why cancer returns. Currently, there are no conventional cancer drugs available to target these stem cells. Extensive research suggests that a combination of Doxycycline and high-dose IV Vitamin C disrupt the energy production of cancer stem cells, and converting them into normal cells. Additionally, subst

Creating a Healing Environment: To overcome cancer, it's essential to provide your body with the optimal conditions for healing. This involves maintaining an alkaline pH, bolstering gut health, ensuring proper oxygenation, adopting a cancer-fighting diet, and addressing cancer stem cells through innovative approaches.

CANCER CAN’T LIVE IN AN ALKALINE, OXYGEN RICH ENVIRONMENT
