Use of Iscador/Mistletoe Extract

ChrisforAnn

Does anyone have any first hand experience using Iscador in Stage IV Breast Cancer. Has anyone seen tumors slow down or stop alltogether? Any other observations?

Sorry I have no personal experience with Iscador but I've read about clinical trials conducted in Europe that reported success. I can also remember actress Suzanne Sommers announcing back in 2001 that, following surgery and radiation, she would treat her breast cancer unconventionally with Iscador instead of chemotherapy. Most people thought she was crazy and that the cancer would kill her. I am not privy to her medical condition but I know she just closed a show on Broadway earlier this month. Speaking for myself, I treated my breast cancer by standard methods but I do take doctor approved supplements, like CoQ10, to enhance my immune system and strengthen my heart. Iscador has been shown to kill cancer cells both in vitro and in vivo. It's also reported to boost the immune system which, may itself, work to defeat the cancer. European doctors have been prescribing it for years. The National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine is currently sponsoring a clinical trial recruiting "Patients 18 years of age or older with pancreatic, colorectal, lung, or breast cancer that cannot be surgically removed, has recurred, or has spread beyond the primary site. Patients with breast and colorectal cancer must have received first-line chemotherapy without being cured, before being eligible for this study."
Find an oncologist who will work with you to outline a treatment plan that includes alternative medicines. Too often we forget it's our bodies and our lives. Best of luck.
