The story of Dick, a man 11 years a diagnosis of an incurable melanoma with metastases survived with the help of the Houtsmuller diet, additional supplementation and a healthy lifestyle. Dick died after a relapse in the lungs in October 2004.
Dick has survived nearly 10 years after the diagnosis of a malignant melanoma with metastases, with the help of healthy diet, lots of fruit and vegetables, and extra food. (Editors note: Dick his diet closely resembles the Houtsmuller Diet / Moerman diet )
His way of dealing with this life-threatening "problem" is both very simple and very basic: one side up to optimize the metabolism of the body, and thus the immune system (T cells) and on the other hand, maximum minimization of living and growing conditions for tumor cells.
Dick had told me his story briefly sent via email and invited me to his home to another one and another by talking. He told me he was some interesting books and other information for me that might be interesting would be for the site. As part of his medical diagnosis of early 1993 as evidence.
Well I can say that my visit to Dick has impressed me. What a wonderful story and what he knows a lot about how he dealt with melanoma deliberate and sober. He gave me very important and useful information for people with other cancers.
Brief outline of the course of his illness so far:
In March 1993 was diagnosed with Malignant Melanoma Cancer (Clark level IV-V, 5.7 mm Breslowdiepte.) after the removal of a mole by the doctor who gave nuisance. A week later, the melanoma excised in a broader ziekenhuis.Â
Already four months after this operation appears there is already a visible tumor on his side, which is surgically removed in September 1993. A month after this operation there is already a new tumor in the side, in early November 1993 is removed. Unfortunately after just over three months, on January 31, 1994 appears yet another tumor. These tumor is surgically removed in February 1994.
It is remarkable that there are still about 3 ½ months after the previous surgery. We go forward again.
Miraculously, the following tumor exactly one year away. Only on 3 February 1995 appears again a tumor in his armpit area, which is also surgically removed. Fortunately so far the last surgery.
The story behind the schematic overview:
After the first surgery was Dick since become members of the Association Moerman .
Through this association, he contacted physician-biologist Drs. E. Valstar from The Haag.Â
Only months later, when Dick physician-biologist Drs. E. Valstar for an initial consultation visit where they complement the food supplements and vitamins, which Dick used for some time.
Valstar was very pleased with what Dick himself had all been figured out for the life-threatening disease. Dick tells me that the surgeon had told him that it was remarkable that the tumors growing as a solid sphere as in the surrounding tissue could be lifted. The tumor was not ingrown / intertwined with healthy tissue. According to Dick that was using a lot of vitamin C.
According to Dick strengthened because the mega-dose vitamin C is collagen tissue, the "reinforcement" of the cell walls of healthy cells. This allows a cancer cell with the cell wall enzymes are not the healthy cells dissolve and penetrate into the healthy cell. This cancer is in fact only able to grow into themselves, but not other cells into cancer cells. The diet and other dietary supplements must do the rest by the living conditions of cancer cells as well as possible to minimize. (Editors note: angiogenesis inhibitors do basically the same that connect the power supply to the cancer cells. Also methylglyoxal would do otherwise).
dated 23/11/2002: Dick commented on what I write above, the following:
For the metabolism of a cancer cell is sodium (salt) a necessity. Therefore, use as a cancer patient no sodium ascorbate, which is mopping with the tap, but only calcium ascorbate. A healthy body cell potassium needed for his breathing. (Ao in carrot). So Dick says, optimize your body metabolism, so your immune system through good nutrition and extra supplementation of vitamins and minerals, and minimize the lives of cancer
Miraculously, the next, and fortunately so far last, tumor one year away. Only in February 1995 will see another tumor in his armpit area. This, together with all nodes in the armpit, surgically removed perfectly with savings of nerves while maintaining all the functions of arms and muscles. Dick is obviously very happy there.
But as is discussed that it is remarkable that the tumor is already one year has stayed away, and Dick thinks that's because the diet, additional supplementation of vitamins and minerals and a healthy lifestyle, then the oncologist not to in: "instead of vitamins you might well take licorice. Juicy detail: the oncologist had serious physical problems because of that year quit his job.
Dick still fills with the following statement regarding the relationship and blood cancer.: Â
As may be known, there are 4 types of blood in human nature: A, B, AB and O.Â
The name refers to the presence or absence of certain proteins in the blood. of. In blood group O, or zero, contains no blood proteins. (Compared with distilled water) People with blood type O can give blood every reason, because they have no blood proteins, and are sometimes called universal donors. They can only blood type O received, since the proteins from bloedgroepA, B or AB, in their blood, blood clotting or thrombosis cause. Precisely because of the lack of blood proteins, people with blood type O is a much better natural protection against cancer than people with a other blood group. are not in group O blood proteins.
Each cancer cell has on its surface, however, certain proteins are. These are used by people with blood type O is absolutely not tolerated, but as destroys. The destruction of cancer cells starts with blood type O on its first discovered cancer ..
Of all cancer patients have only a very small proportion of blood group O. Sturdy older smokers, because the natural protection, it also usually people with blood type O.Â
Because many cancer proteins resemble natural proteins present in blood from blood group A or AB, then tumors may easily become, as it is not directly by the immune system as a hostile body recognize. . More than three quarters of all kankerpatià "Restaurants has bloodtype A, says Dick. (Editorial Note: It is a blood type diet is not that bad. I'll see if I get some more information can get, I know a few people that this blood type diet use).
Since the last operation in early 1995, Dick remains happily free from the occurrence of new melanoma tumors. Today is November 11, 2002 as I sit opposite Dick, who has an excellent quality of life, is wonderful in his own skin feeling down, and not expected back soon to get a new melanoma tumor. Yet he assumes that he has not been completely cancer free.
Melanoma cells are highly intelligent and determined. While the living conditions of these cancer cells are extremely unfavorable, they keep quiet. Will they, for some reason or another food opportunity, all problems begin again.
As an example he seeds of plants, which are carried by the wind, ended up in the desert. As long as there is no water, the seeds remain untouched in the sand.
Once rain falls, then the seeds alive and flourishing even a desert!
It is therefore absolutely essential and vital to all body cells, and thus the immune cells in optimal condition, and the living conditions of tumor cells as unfavorable as possible. According to him, the metastases are still quiet. Dick is convinced that as long as it does not cut, and he remains as loyal as he eats dinner and the extra vitamins and minerals continue to use, then he is not worried that his melanoma will be active again. But you can never know. Dick is now two years no longer had control. Inhospital, they want nothing more to his story. According to him is to follow a diet especially for those patients' healing, unemployed and without will not suffer the disease, but who want to keep working intensively to survive. You were lucky the only thing they can say. Statistically, he would very much and because of striking lucky with a melanoma diagnosis like Dick and then also the five recurrences in the statistics always end of story.
Unfortunately casuastiek still not taken seriously in science.
Further reading on cellular medicine and the role of vitamin C in it would be the book of Dr.. Rath can order: The claims of Cellular Medicine.
It is fairly clear and simple language how this process of adding as vitamin C and lysine takes place. I liked to notice when I got home and the book of Dr.. Rath once leafed that reflected almost verbatim what Dr. Dick. Rath says as he describes all Dr. Rath did not know.
From this book a short test for yourself how your vitamin C tolerance can bepalen.Â
I quote from: The claims of Cellular Medicine, page 60 section 6.4. Vitamin Tolerance Test p. 61: First take a high dose multivitamin therapy as a basis. Then take supplemental vitamin C, preferably in complex with buffered vitamin C (magnesium and calcium ascorbates) and fat-soluble vitamin C (eg ascorbilpalmitaat). Take each day one gram more, as long until you notice that your stool is thinner. At that time, you reduce the dose by 1 or 2 grams, which is your individual vitamin C behoefte.Â
Dr. Cathhart, an American doctor in clinical trials found that patients' serious illnesses much higher doses of vitamin C can take before diarrhea occurs other than a healthy control group. For healthy people 8-10 grams per day extra is enough. Patients' with infections and other serious diseases, however, can be easily between 40 and 60 grams of vitamin C per day were tolerated. This is due to the higher body's need for vitamin C.
Because the specified protocol is a general obligation to monitor the excised tissue to send. Dick will end in March 1993 the overwhelming results of the GP:
The study shows that Dick is a very fast growing, malignant melanoma has
( malignant melanoma ), with special Clark Level IV - V Breslowdiepte 5.7 mm.
The doctor says in passing, that this story does in fact end - maybe a few weeks of life prognosis - and within five minutes Dick is outside. About bringing a bad news voice.
The doctor: "Unfortunately at this stage is a melanoma as untreatable and incurable to consider. I will still make an appointment at the hospital to the skin still slightly wider cut away, as the report also says that the lesion is removed too tight and this should be done according to protocol broader ". Dick is stunned. He tells me that the first weeks after the diagnosis completely overwhelming his mind several times outside his body spontaneously entered. He says: "I saw myself on the couch while I hovered above my spirit." Apparently the human mind such an unexpected death sentence not announced, and responds by withdrawal of the body, which is comparable to become unconscious, as the pain threshold is too high.
He also found it striking that he immediately following night after the diagnosis is crushing on a broad basis in his dreams with the actual plight was doing. Still, Dick and senses alert and still tries to keep grip on the situation by direct action. While the end of March 1993 in a hospital before the doctor removed mole reamer is removed, Dick has extensively in libraries, the Internet did not exist, the investigation started that he himself could do to prolong survival by tumor growth and metastasis as much possible. Dick explains to me in this easy to understand manner how the process of metastasis in melanoma and many other types of cancer can take place ..
By tumor tissue to pry, but to cut a biopsy, there will be, according to what Dick in medical books read in the blood, a "warning or signal substance" free, other tumor cells elsewhere in the body warns of danger . Medically speaking, taking a biopsy for cancer patient therefore dangerous. (Editors note: in breast cancer is there any scientific studies, and also partially proves this theory. see cancers, breast cancer)
And we speak not only on tumor spill, but according to Dick than any tiny cancer metastases throughout the body by the 'danger signal substance' to be enabled to share, spread and mutate in the body. Later turns out to Dick because the primary tumor a mole-like structure on his back, which there probably twenty to thirty years and still sits quietly Sat. Only by cutting away a relatively small mole elsewhere, metastatic cancer was already stimulated and activated again, says Dick ..
Dick read many books but he mentions me some, especially in the early days of his illness has had much support. Based on that information, they are vitamins and minerals selected and their diet adjusted so that it is very much at Moerman / Houtsmuller diet seems. (Editorial Note: We suggest that it does not do as Dick, and as always seemed an orthomolecular doctor for a consultation and any nutritional supplementation for your specific type of cancer is good. Addresses of well-qualified - orthomolecular - doctors are on page useful addresses ).
Dick is the theory and the studies of Professor Linus Pauling (1901-1994) became enthusiastic and convinced of the great qualities of vitamin C possesses. By Pauling vitamin C was shown that the survival time of kankerpatià "Restaurants with a factor of 20 can extend. If scientists could produce a substance withthe properties of vitamin C, the world would be too small for that as a huge turnaround in the fight against cancer to treat. Now avoids any regular doctor vitamin C, if that is the greatest poison to humanity. Linus Pauling was a very respected scientist in the field of chemistry. He even twice a Nobel Prize, which really should be called unique. In 1954 for his research in chemistry, and in 1963 for peace, because of his overt hostility to testing of nuclear bombs and increased radioactivity in the air. When Linus Pauling, based on the wonderful results of his scientific research, the world tried to convince the great effects of vitamin C in the human body, he was despised and rejected by the scientific community. Linus Pauling used himself as a healthy man under his theoria "N, 10 grams of vitamin C / day, he died a few years ago, with good quality of life, at age 93. (Editorial Note: For who is interested in studies of Linaes Pauling looking at pages and nutrition research with a direct deep link is to all his diary entries. very rewarding for a doctor or medical interested. Or read on this page information on intravenous vitamin C, also for pain relief instead morphine.)
Dick took a sneak vitamin C. Later a brief explanation of how and what vitamin C in cancer treatment does. Dick stressed that a kankerpatià 'nt often a very low vitamin C levels have. Apparently the body uses to fight cancer, high in vitamin C. Vitamin C is a water soluble vitamin, and binds water to itself.
Only when you get diarrhea you can say that there is no apparent vitamin C is absorbed by the body and the stool leaves the body.

Dick has mentioned books in the bookcase for years, probably once bought at the bookshop bad, because he and his wife had always been very interested in developments in medical science. Dick says that his regular oncologist had told him that his melanoma cancer chemotherapy or radiation makes no sense, and only affects the body. Another was hit deep in the pit by a statement from his oncologist, not Dick. Now he had no degrading therapies to follow the effect of which was highly questionable. Now he is in good quality of life carry his fight against cancer.
Melanoma cells because they are black pigment, protects against radiation so that normal cells already have laid the wayside, while the melanoomcel nothing of radiation noted. By comparison, in regions of the earth where the sun shines very intensive, only people with black skin is maintained. These people get in temperate regions, as here with us, again because their black skin health too much solar radiation shields. Melanoma cells have the property that they realize full well that they are not wanted in the body, and know that they are therefore constantly in danger. To survive and not get caught growing melanoma tumors very quickly, Dick tumor content doubled in just over one week, mutate quickly, and many (changing properties), and swarm quickly in all directions, (metastasis), and sand a fast flowing river.
There will therefore always malignant melanoma cells, cells with particular properties, wholly immune to that specific chemotherapy. Moreover, according to Dick reached the chemo is not the brains, because these chemicals, with relatively large molecules, the blood-brain barrier often can not pass. Metastases can result in the head just fester. Hence, despite chemotherapy, brain tumors are still frequently occur.
