Natural Infections Help To Prevent and Cure Cancer

Did you know that the immune system also targets and destroys cancer cells? Many studies have
shown that acute infectious diseases, especially when accompanied by a fever, appears to have a protective effect against cancer (see links below). In other words, being exposed to common infectious diseases, including measles, mumps, chicken pox, and the flu, appears to make the immune system more resilient and effective even when dealing with cancer cells. According to "Miller's Review of Critical Vaccine Studies:"

"Several diseases have oncolytic (anti-cancer) properties. For example, tumour remissions after measles infection are well-documented in the medical literature. Scientists have known for quite some time that infections in early life protect against various cancers later in life. Later born children have less cancer than their siblings. Children who go to daycare in early life are more protected against cancers for the same reason. Vaccinations denied babies opportunities to become naturally infected, and with this reduction in exposure to disease there was a trade-off - increased rates of cancer."

It is quite clear that acute infectious diseases, especially those that cause a fever, can serve an important purpose in detoxifying the body and boosting the immune system. This has been known for hundreds of years. Even Hippocrates, the father of modern medicine, once said, "Give me the power to create a fever, and I shall cure any disease." It's also important to note that most, if not all, vaccines are not evaluated as a potential cause of cancer. Fortunately, we already have a power within us that heals us and initiates a fever timeously, and that is the body's nervous system, which is constantly working to keep us healthy and resilient. By improving the function of the nervous system, it's easy to see how chiropractic can indirectly also help to prevent and fight cancer.

Chiropractic Can Help Regulate Blood Pressure

As with many problems in the body, high blood pressure has a strong neurological component. The medical term used to diagnose this condition is hypertension and the drugs used to decrease blood pressure mostly target the nervous and endocrine systems. Did you know that about 30% of people are likely misdiagnosed with high blood pressure? Many people get tense and stressed when they have their blood pressure measured at a doctor's office, resulting in a higher reading, and being falsely diagnosed and medicated for high blood pressure. In fact, there's even a medical term for this, called White Coat Syndrome, as well as a diagnosis code.

While having high blood pressure is indeed dangerous, using drugs to reduce your blood pressure has a wide range of risks and side effects, depending on the type of medication used. About 10 years ago, one of my patients who was a retired medical doctor, told me that he refused to take high blood pressure medication, because it can weaken the heart muscles and lead to the necessity of a pacemaker. Fortunately, there are many ways of reducing your blood pressure naturally. In this video, Dr Adam Story demonstrates how to reduce your blood pressure naturally in just a few minutes, with simple deep-breathing exercises. While many doctors blame high blood pressure on genes, lifestyle habits play a much more significant role.

Specific, neurologically-based chiropractic adjustments have also been shown to reduce blood pressure, by improving the function of the nerves that control the muscles of the heart, lungs, and the blood vessels of the entire body. According to a study published in 2007, "50 individuals with a misaligned Atlas (C1) vertebra and high blood pressure, showed that after a one-time specialized chiropractic adjustment, blood pressure decreased significantly. The decrease was equal to taking two blood-pressure drugs at once." Regular care will likely have a longer-lasting effect. It's truly amazing what the nervous system and the body can do when it's functioning well.

Are EMFs Contributing To Severe COVID-19?

(Click on image to enlarge)

While many neurological problems are being blamed on the covid virus, the evidence to support this theory is circumstantial at best, considering that the test used to diagnose an infection has been proven to be inaccurate. According to a paper published in 2020, "More than a third of cases displayed neurological involvement, and many severely ill patients developed multiple organ infection and injury. However, less than 1% of patients had a detectable level of SARS- CoV-2 in the blood, raising a question of how the virus spreads throughout the body." Considering that many people are now overexposed to wireless radiation, it is not far-fetched to see that this additional stress on the body can compromise health and even weaken the nervous and immune systems. In a paper published last year, the researchers "identified several mechanisms by which wireless communication radiation may have contributed to the COVID-19 pandemic as a toxic environmental cofactor." While the wireless industry and governments claim this radiation is safe, independent scientists that have been warning us for decades. I have also seen many patients report positive effects when they do limit their exposure. Unfortunately, most people today are unable to eliminate this radiation, but there are steps you can take to reduce your exposure (see infographic). Chiropractic care also reduces dysfunction in the nervous system, allowing your body to withstand this stress much more effectively.
