Essiac®
With the permission of her aunt’s physician, Dr. Fisher, Rene began making the
herbal remedy and giving it to her dying aunt. With only the herbal tea for
treatment of her stomach and liver cancer, after two months Mireza’s health had
improved substantially. In fact, her improvement was such that she lived for
another 21 years.1,2
Rene wrote:
“Dr. Fisher was so impressed he asked me to use the treatment on some of his
other hopeless cancer cases. Other doctors heard about me from Dr. Fisher and
asked me to treat patients for them after everything medical science had to
offer had failed.” 2
Rene then teamed with Dr. Fisher and began experiments on mice inoculated with
human cancer. Rene discovered the best results could be obtained by injecting
part of the formula and administering the other part orally.
The other doctors who had heard about Rene’s work through Dr. Fisher began
sending her their ‘hopeless’ cases. These cases were usually the advanced or
terminal cancer patients which orthodox medicine had given up on. After seeing
the results Rene was obtaining, eight doctors including Dr. Fisher of Toronto
signed a petition, requesting her work be proven on a large scale. The
department of Health and Welfare responded, intending to arrest Rene, but
instead decided to allow her to perform tests on mice with them.1
Shortly after opening a treatment clinic where Rene helped cancer sufferers
free of charge, Rene’s mother at age 72 was diagnosed with inoperable liver
cancer. According to Dr. Roscoe Graham, she had only days to live. Rene
treated her mother with Essiac® and her mother made a full recovery. Rene’s
mother lived free from cancer until the age of 90. People suffering from
cancer, including those ‘given up on’ by orthodox medicine continued to seek
Rene’s help for years at her clinic. The support for Rene among the people
grew.

In 1938 a Bill was presented to the 2nd Session of the 20th Legislature of
Ontario for: "An act to authorize Rene Caisse to practice medicine in the
province of Ontario in the treatment of cancer and conditions resulting
therefrom.”
Along with the Bill was a petition which had gathered 55,000 signatures.2
The bill failed by only 3 votes, but not without some influence from the
Canadian Medical Association. The next move against Rene was the passing of a
new act for the investigation of remedies for cancer.2
In march of 1939, Rene and 387 of her supporting patients attended a public
hearing before the full cancer commission. The Royal Commission allowed only 49
of the patients to testify. The commissioners did not care what the patients
had to say. Most of the testimonies were dismissed as incorrect original
diagnoses, with some doctors even denying their own previous diagnoses. 1
In short, they ruled on the claims that:
Patients who received treatment from Rene had been wrongly diagnosed (by
trained doctors making many life or death evaluations)
Patients who did recover experienced “Spontaneous Remission” (A blatant lie)
In December 1939 the cancer commission effectively stated in their report after
the hearing Essiac® had no merit and unless Rene disclosed the formula she would
be subject to prosecution under the Kirby bill.
Rene stated: “I want to know that suffering humanity will benefit by it. When
I can be given the assurance, I am willing to disclose my formula, but I have
got to know that it is going to get to suffering humanity.”1
Rene kept her clinic open but closed it in 1942 when the fear of being
prosecuted and imprisoned by the Kirby bill became too much for her.
In 1959, by invitation Rene teamed with Dr. Charles Armao Brusch, who was one
of the most respected physicians in the United States and personal physician to
president John F. Kennedy.
Rene, working with Dr. Brusch and the director of research Dr. Charles McClure
tested Essiac® on cancer patients in the Brusch clinic. Essiac® proved its
worth on all patients. Rene and Brusch then attempted to improve Essiac® by
adding additional ingredients, which proved to be successful, increasing it’s
potency.
Soon after, the medical establishment applied it’s dictatorial force by making
it increasingly difficult for Rene and Dr. Brusch by refusing to accept further
results and forbidding it’s members to refer patients to ‘unproven remedies’.
At that point Rene returned home to Bracebridge, whilst she entrusted Dr.
Brusch to continue treating the few patients that came to him with Essiac®.
Rene remained active from 1962 to 1978 by supplying Essiac® to Dr. Brusch.
In 1984 Dr. Brusch treated his own bowel cancer solely with Essiac®.
Dr. Brusch wrote:
“I endorse this therapy even today for I have in fact cured my own cancer, the
original site of which was the lower bowel, through Essiac® alone.” 1
In October 1977 Rene signed a contract with David Fingard. The contract
agreements were that for rights to the Essiac® Formula, David’s company Resperin
would open five fully staffed clinics across Canada and give Essiac® free to
terminally ill cancer patients. Shortly after signing Resperin applied to the
department of Health and Welfare asking permission for Essiac® to be tested in a
pilot program on terminal cancer patients. Hundreds of doctors across Canada,
plus two hospitals were to administer Essiac® to their patients and monitor the
results.

The clinical trials did not go to plan. Again the medical establishment
dictated proceedings in their own way. However, there is validity to the
results of the Resperin treatment program failing in the treatment of cancer as
Dr. Brusch, along with a private investigator found out.
Resperin failed to conduct the clinical trials adequately, which the Department
of Health and Welfare knew – stating in their 1981 internal memorandum “The
results of the clinical studies are impossible to evaluate”. Despite this, in
1982 the department of Health and Welfare shut down the testing program. 1
The original Essiac® formula in a product form is still available at the time of
writing through Essiac® international. See the resources section for details.
For reasons you may still be learning at this point, no medical claims can be
made for Essiac® by the manufacturer or the distributor.3
In 1984 Dr. Brusch met a woman from Vancouver named Elaine Alexander. Elaine
had been following the work of Rene for some time. In 1988 Elaine told Dr.
Brusch of her idea to bring Essiac® to the people. Instead of trying to get the
medical establishment to realize the worth of Essiac®, Elaine’s idea was to
simply market the remedy as a harmless, detoxifying herbal tea.1
With this plan, they would not be able to use the name Essiac®, nor would they
be able to make any claims regarding any benefit the tea might have for cancer
sufferers, as they knew the medical establishment would not allow it. The
medical establishment was after a drug to aid in the battle against cancer.
Essiac® is not an exclusive drug, and for that reason it could not be marketed
for profit by the pharmaceutical/medical establishment complex.
Elaine selected carefully and then approached Flora – a Canadian health product
company. Flora is owned by Thomas Greither, one of three sons of Dr. Otto
Greither Jr. with his own independent health company. Together, Thomas, Elaine
and Dr. Brusch developed Flor·Essence® herbal tea. Flor·Essence® is not simply
the original Essiac® formula, but the improved formula that Dr. Brusch and Rene
Caisse discovered.
The story you have just read has been shortened for purposes of this report,
but is still an accurate account of the history of Essiac®. For further
information and for a more complete account of Rene Caisse, Elaine Alexander or
Dr. Charles Armao Brusch, consider the resources listed or do your own
research, for all three people have done amazing things in their lifetimes.

Antoine Prioré
Italian born Antoine Prioré, after the end of the 2nd world war, living in
France, built and tested electromagnetic healing machines of startling
effectiveness. In hundreds of strictly controlled tests with laboratory
animals, Prioré's machine cured a wide variety of the most difficult kinds of
terminal, fatal diseases known today. Still little understood, L’Affaire Prioré
(Prioré’s machine) works by amplifying a cells natural regenerative mechanism.
Pautrizel then came under suppression himself, with funds being pulled,
postings being denied, etc. Pautrizel eventually became so emotionally
overwrought that he gave up his medical career and retired and gave himself
over to alcohol. Every one of the collaborators of Pautrizel saw their careers
put in jeopardy, compromised, or broken.
About this time Prioré's doctoral thesis, backed by both Pautrizel and Nobel
Laureate André Lwoff himself, was summarily refused by the President of the
University of Bordeaux.
In 1974, a change of local government lost Prioré his government supporters,
his support and funding were lost, and subsequent attempts to restore his
technology into the public domain were viciously suppressed.

Vitamin B17
Also known as Laetrile (LAEvo-mandeloniTRILE-glucoside) or Amygdalin
Laetrile is possibly the most well known of all alternative treatments for
cancer. The battle for awareness of Laetrile has been a long one and continues
presently. You may have ‘heard’ things about either Laetrile or Vitamin B17
throughout your lifetime. There have been many lies and much disinformation
spread over the years and it continues today. The political and power agenda
is the main reason why.
Laetrile has not been approved by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) in the
United States. Laetrile has not been put through the extensive testing that all
new drugs must go through to be approved. (Although the FDA may label Vitamin
B17 as a drug, it is not) This process takes years, tens of thousands of pages
of reports and costs hundreds of millions of dollars. Only the huge
pharmaceutical/drug companies can afford this process which the FDA knows.7
Since Vitamin B17 is found naturally, knowledge of its ability among the entire
population would likely mean reduced instances of cancer and little to no
reliance on high costing orthodox treatments. This could pose a huge financial
let-down for both the medical establishment and big pharmaceutical companies.
Fewer people getting cancer, and even fewer taking chemotherapy, radiation and
surgical treatment. Clearly there is billions of dollars involved in this
agenda. Indeed, there is more money to be made in searching for a cure for
cancer than actually finding one, and the ACS (American Cancer Society) and AMA
(American Medical Association) certainly know this. Most doctors are unaware of
alternative treatments for cancer including Laetrile. This includes those doing
research in the field. Those that do often have only read the literature of
their respected establishment.
So we have two groups – those that have accepted the reports and findings of
the FDA and the ACS; and those that have accepted the reports and testimonies
of the doctors who have worked with Laetrile on cancer patients. Only one side
holds the truth.
Ask yourself: Are you really living in the world you think you are?
For the sake of this report we will return to Laetrile itself, rather than the
politics.
Vitamin B17 is found naturally in certain foods which are normally absent in our
diets. Laetrile is the pure form of Vitamin B17; Ernest T. Krebs Jr, PhD and
Byron Krebs, M.D. with their father, Ernst T. Krebs Sr, M.D. perfected Laetrile
in 1952. 1

©Almeirhria The truth about cancer
The cyanide scare was widely used in the 1970’s and still today the idea that
Laetrile is toxic is believed by some due to this tactic. An example was the
posters ordered to be put in all government buildings which read “Beware of
Laetrile! It is toxic!” 8
Thousands of Americans each year travel to the Oasis of hope hospital in Mexico
to seek the help of Dr. Ernesto Contreras Rodriguez (and now his son Dr.
Fransisco Contreras). His patients are quite often terminal cancer patients who
have been told they have only months to live. The Oasis of Hope hospital uses
“B17 Metabolic Therapy”. More than 100,000 patients have sought Contreras' care
since 1963. 2
“The facts are, as partially detailed in the letter of March 22, 1974 from Dean
Burk to Seymour Perry, that positive, statistically highly significant,
anticancer activity by Laetrile in animal tumor systems has been observed in at
least 5 independent institutions in 3 widely separated countries of the world,
with a variety of animal cancers.
When you have power you don't have to tell the truth. That's a rule that's
been working in this world for generations. And there are a great many people
who don't tell the truth when they are in power in administrative positions."
Wrote Dean Burk, former head of National Cancer Institute Research.9

©Almeirhria The truth about cancer
In 1972 Sloan Memorial Kettering Cancer Research commissioned their top senior
cancer researcher to conduct tests over a 5 year period between 1972 and 1977
and finally put an end to this Laetrile quackery. They asked Dr. Kanematsu
Sugiura, their most senior researcher with over 60 years experience in cancer
research and who had been under their employment since 1917 and totally
dedicated to cancer research.
Dr. Kanematsu Sugiura's work was trusted and his honesty and integrity was
admired and unquestioned by all. Hundreds of Sugiura's research papers were
published.
Dr. Chester Stock, the Head of Sloan Kettering's laboratory-testing division
wrote:
"Few if any names in cancer research are as widely known as Kanematsu
Sugiura's....Possibly the highest regard in which his work is held is best
characterized by a comment made to me by a visiting investigator in cancer
research from Russia. He said "when Sugiura publishes, we know we do not have
to repeat the study, for we would obtain the same results he has reported"'.
At the conclusion of the trials, on June 15, 1977 Sloan Memorial Kettering
Cancer Research released a press statement. Over 100 reporters and half a dozen
film crews from the leading television stations had been assembled to hear the
long awaited official verdict on Laetrile from the worlds most prestigious
cancer research centre. On the Dais were physicians with impeccable
credentials. Dr. Robert Good began to speak. After general remarks condemning
Laetrile and its use, he passed the microphone to Dr Stock. The same Doctor
Chester Stock who had praised Sugiura's work took the microphone and began
describing the finer details of the testing. As his voice droned on... it was
evident all eyes were on Dr. Sugiura but he was not given the opportunity to
speak.
Dr. Sugiura reported Laetrile was more effective in the control of cancer than
any substance he had ever tested. (Incidentally Dr. Sugiura had been
researching cancer since 1911) His results were not acceptable to his
superiors, so they brought in other researchers to duplicate Sugiura’s work in
the hope to prove the results false. Instead the follow-up studies confirmed
Sugiura. Undaunted, his superiors called for new experiments over and over
again, following procedures designed to make the tests fail. Eventually they
did fail, and it was that failure that was announced to the world. 3
Author Dr. Ralph Moss worked at Sloan-Kettering during the amygdalin trials and
went public on November 18, 1977, exposing the lies told by Sloan-Kettering
about the Laetrile/amygdalin trials. He was fired the next day. 5

©Almeirhria The truth about cancer
A 16 year old Virginia boy named Abraham Cherrix was diagnosed with Hodgkin’s
disease (a cancer of the lymph nodes) in 2005. After his initial diagnosis,
Abraham submitted to chemotherapy, which made him feel sick and weak. His
cancer went into brief remission before returning earlier this year, when he
decided he would not undergo more chemotherapy, but rather try alternative
herbal treatments. Abraham's parents supported their son's decision and began
taking him to the Hoxsey Clinic in Mexico for treatments involving cancer-
fighting herbs and an organic diet.
However, the Virginia Department of Social Services decided to get involved,
and asked the state court to require Abraham's parents to return him to a
hospital in Virginia for conventional treatment, which would include stronger
chemotherapy than he'd previously undergone, as well as radiation therapy. The
court agreed and ordered Abraham's parents to give consent for their son to be
treated with harsh chemo treatments at Children's Hospital of the King's
Daughters in Norfolk. 2
Harry Hoxsey is the founder of the "Hoxsey Method" with which Abraham Cherrix
was attempting to treat his cancer. Hoxsey is the great-grandson of John
Hoxsey, an American physician who discovered a remarkably effective cancer
treatment in 1840 by watching horses with cancer cure themselves by foraging
for certain rare herbs.
Harry Hoxsey, a coal miner with no formal medical training, began promoting his
great-grandfather's cancer formula -- which contained a number of herbs,
including bloodroot, burdock, red clover, licorice root, pokeroot, barberry
root, buckthorn, prickly ash, stillingia root and cascara -- in the 1930s.
Hoxsey was not a doctor, so he partnered with various MD’s and let them perform
the treatments. Hoxsey grew to running numerous clinics in various states
across the U.S. The medical establishment (the FDA, AMA and NCI) attacked
Hoxsey by first revoking licenses of the physicians he employed, then
forbidding him to operate his clinics and announce to patients his treatment
was no longer available, then finally padlocking all his clinics in a single
day. At the same time false reports were being spread in the Journal of the
American Medical Association about Hoxsey.
Having no choice Hoxsey relocated to Mexico. 2,15
At the age of 41, Rod Czlonka was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer and told
he was about to die. Rod fought his terminal cancer with nutrition and won.
Rod is still alive today. 5
He is just one individual who has learnt that in the same way we get cancer
from our diets and our surroundings, we can eliminate it with proper nutrition
and reducing the toxicities in our environments.

In one Japanese study, scientists placed lab mice on a chlorella regimen for
ten days, then injected the mice with three types of cancer. According to Dr.
Moss, over 70 percent of the chlorella-strengthened mice did not develop
cancer, while all of the untreated mice died within 20 days. 2
Samuel S. Epstein, M.D. writes:
“The American Cancer Society, together with the American College of
Radiologists, has insisted on pursuing large-scale mammography screening
programs for breast cancer, including its use in younger women, even though the
National Cancer Institute and other experts are now agreed that these are
likely to cause more cancers than could possibly be detected.” 12
In 1931 Dr. Warburg won his first Nobel Prize for proving cancer is caused by a
lack of oxygen respiration in cells. He stated in an article titled The Prime
Cause and Prevention of Cancer that "the cause of cancer is no longer a
mystery, we know it occurs whenever any cell is denied 60% of its oxygen
requirements."

...After the vote went against providing Medicare coverage for chiropractic,
the AMA took the campaign to a new level of intensity. The AMA's consumer
magazines began printing articles that repeatedly called chiropractic
"quackery," and greatly exaggerated its dangers.
In 1976 Wilks and three other chiropractors filed suit against the AMA. Knowing
it would be disastrous for the AMA if the truth of their activities were to get
out, they offered to buy off the chiropractors. Needless to say they refused to
accept the money. In December 1980, the case went to trial, beginning an epic
court battle. In August of 1987, the AMA was ruled guilty of trying to
eliminate the chiropractic profession. The AMA appealed, but in February 1990,
the ruling was upheld.
Finally, in December 1991, 15 bitter years after Chester Wilk and the McAndrews
brothers had filed suit, the AMA agreed to make a US$53.5 million payment for
the chiropractors' legal costs and to revise its position. 3, 9
"Everyone should know that most cancer research is largely a fraud and that the
major cancer research organizations are derelict in their duties to the people
who support them." - Linus Pauling PhD (Two-time Nobel Prize winner). 10
So what do you really know about the world you live in? Do you keep a close
watch on the television for news and current affairs programs? Perhaps read a
newspaper everyday? All very well, but it would be seriously naïve to believe
these sources of information tell all that matters and are always truthful in
what is reported. Sadly, at present money rules. It rules in that profit is
given precedence over everything else, including health. We are no longer seen
as people – we are seen as consumers. Consumers who generate profit with every
financial decision we make. To influence our decisions, our thoughts and even
our beliefs, the propaganda machines run continually.
To know the truth one must first see the lies. To see the lies we must
scrupulously seek knowledge, considering both sides of the story.
Having completed reading this report, regardless of whether you believe the
information, are unsure or disbelieve it, it would be wise to investigate as
necessary for yourself. Uncover the lies and deception and the truth remains.
