Supportive Therapy for Cancer Patients
by Jane Smolnik –N.D., Iridologist, C.I.H., and Nutritional Herbalist
NOTE: All of the following suggestions are not intended to diagnose, prescribe, cure or treat, but to inform and
educate. They can be included as part of a daily routine, whether or not you are also involved in other medical
treatments. Each individual should educate them self and make informed decisions regarding intensive radical
therapies, including surgery and chemotherapy, as well as herbal medicine. I believe that the body needs
assistance in eliminating accumulated toxins, immune support, and a healthy, vibrant diet, along with other useful
therapies.
it. Take charge and take back your power! Speak to it, name it, ask it what its purpose is, what is the
lesson you need to learn from this? Let it know that you are in control and working on eliminating it
completely. Look for and let go of the buried emotions such as any unresolved anger or hate! It may
have come from excessive fears, guilt feelings, or the inability to cope with change. Self-hate, denial
1. Attitude and Positive Imagery! and low self-esteem can also accompany any auto-immune
disease. When we are in the habit of using negative self-talk, our body responds with internal
attacks. It is important NOT to feel powerless and overcome, or to ignore DECIDE to learn from and
release any unresolved issue. Look for the good that came from it, how has it made you a better
person, taught you valuable lessons? Be thankful, and completely let go of any leftover anger. Take
responsibility!
Combine relaxation techniques with positive imagery.
Take several deep cleansing breathes, and imagine breathing in vibrant, white light into ALL parts of
your body. Breathe OUT the ugly toxins, and allow them to disappear. Breathe IN positive
affirmations about yourself and your body, Breathe OUT any doubts, fears, guilt, any unreleased
emotions. Imagine and FEEL what it feels like to be totally healthy, every single cell in your body!
Hold that feeling for as long as you can. It feels wonderful and right. Practice this daily. Spend time
outside, surrounded by nature, with fresh air and sunshine whenever you can. Please use any other
techniques such as Yoga, Meditating, Tai Chi, Dancing, Reiki, Chakra balancing, etc.
2. Daily Supplements - Take important anti-oxidant vitamins to limit free-radical damage to your
cells. Eat DAILY Beta-Carotene (preferably from a food source such as carrots, squash), 400-800 IU
natural Vit. E, and 1000 mg. Or more of Vit. C (calcium ascorbate is best). I highly recommend an
organic liquid called Pro Vitamin Complete for a full spectrum of minerals, trace minerals, all your
amino acids, vitamins, antioxidants, Co-Q10, essential fruits and vegetables, and more! (Call us to
ask for free info sheet) If not, you should at least take good, natural plant-based vitamins, preferably
in liquid form, not the cheap synthetic tablets. Be sure to drink plenty of good spring, filtered, or
distilled water, not public water supplies.
Flax Seed Oil is VERY important in the treatment of Cancer patients It is rich in the Omega 3 & 6 UN-
saturated oils, linolenic and linoleic acids, that your heart, lungs, and entire body needs for optimal
health. The typical American diet is extremely poor in GOOD quality oils. Take 1 TBSP. daily, or 1 tsp.
before each meal, (can mix it with cottage cheese or yogurt) or take 2-3 capsules before each meal.
Include digestive enzymes with each meal, and good quality pro-biotics for the intestinal tract, such
as acidophilus and bifidus.
3. Herbal Support - Use ‘Easiac’ Tea or concentrated extract from Crystal Garden Herbs (an herbal
folk cancer remedy) daily, by taking three doses in spring water. This includes Burdock root, Slippery
Elm, Sheep Sorrel, and Turkey Rhubarb (please read our Easiac brochure for further info). This will
help flush the body of toxins, help to reduce tumors, inhibit any further tumor growth, help the liver to
function optimally to reduce toxins, and soothe and protect the entire digestive tract.
Or you may use the ‘Enhanced Easiac’ which contains the same Easiac herbs with Pau D'arco bark
to help inhibit tumor growth, Astragalus as a deep immune enhancer (especially important while
undergoing intense treatments and x-rays) to support and build your weakened immune system.
Also St. Johnswort extract, (which oxygenates your cells to make the whole body healthier and is
considered an herbal anti-depressant which helps rejuvenate your zest for life) and Mistletoe which
has also been shown by current research to have some anti-tumor effects. I recommend taking 1/4-
1/2 tsp. of the extract 2-3x day. Other herbal support may be needed depending on your particular
conditions, to help tone, support and heal different organs, drain the lymph glands, etc. Please
consult your local naturopathic doctor or trained herbalist for more information.
4. Diet - Macrobiotic is considered the BEST diet to be on for complete nutritional support with no
toxins, for optimal health. ALL Animal products should be eliminated, including dairy, eggs, beef, and
pork. Eliminate ALL sugars, refined, processed foods. No additives, preservatives, colorings, or
hydrogenated oils. Eat lots of delicious fresh, (ORGANIC whenever possible) vegetables and fruits,
(especially broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, brussel sprouts), whole grains (like wheat, oats, rye,
brown rice, millet, etc.), sprouted grain breads, beans and soy products, fermented foods like miso,
tamari, sauerkraut, kombucha tea, etc. Homemade soups are great! Pick up a book on Macrobiotic
Diets by Michio Kushi, a leading authority on healing Cancer with macrobiotics. The key is to eat
foods as close to nature as possible, not processed! These foods, along with positive emotions, are
alkalizing for your body, not toxic and acid forming.
5. Eliminate Parasites and Toxins – It is essential to cleanse toxins from the bowels. By changing
your diet to include more fiber and less constipating foods like cheese, meat, and white flour, you will
improve bowel movements. Ideally eliminating 2-3 x a day is important so that your body is
eliminating a little more toxins every day.
According to Hulda Clark's book The Cure for All Cancers, the human intestinal fluke and other
parasites are associated with all cancers. Poor diet, smoking, and toxins are the contributing factors.
Of course these need to be cleansed as the parasites reside in your weak, damaged tissues, or
cells. When the fluke and all stages of the parasite have been killed, the ortho-phospho-tyrosine
disappears which is the cancer indicator present in cancerous tissues.
I recommend a simple organic herbal parasite formula, along with an herbal cleansing formula,
which helps your body eliminate the parasites and other toxins. It is also very important to stop using
and applying synthetic toxins, which are often used daily in body care products and foods. The major
culprit is propyl alcohol, which is in almost ALL shampoos, deodorants, hair spray, cosmetics,
mouthwash, shaving supplies, white sugar, carbonated beverages, decaf coffee, etc. It also goes by
the names propanol, propylene glycol, isopropanol, isopropyl alcohol, and rubbing alcohol. Propyl
alcohol damages tissues, which feeds the parasites, and is found present in all cancerous tissue.
You may also want to check for and eliminate radon, asbestos, and other toxins, which may be found
in your home. Most cleaning products are toxic. Replace all cleaning products (except bleach for
cleaning the toilet), including laundry detergents and fabric softeners, with Washing Soda, Borax,
boric acid, white distilled vinegar, and natural soaps. Essential oils such as lavender, can be added
to kill bacteria. Avoid ALL colognes (use a drop of essential oil for fragrance!), nail polish and
remover, etc. Mercury-amalgam fillings in your teeth may also cause toxicity. All metal fillings can be
replaced with plastic. You may also want to flush the parasites from your pets as well.
6. Castor Oil Packs - Yes, hot castor oil packs can be used anywhere on the body where cysts,
tumors, or fibroids are to help break up and draw out toxins. (We do eliminate through our skin!) Hot
packs can be used 3-4x a week for at least 30-40 minutes at a time. Place a hot water bottle over the
pack to keep it warm. Essential oils can be added to make it more beneficial and pleasant, such as
Ylang Ylang, Rosemary, Lavender, Rose, etc. They can help relieve depression, uplift the spirit,
reconnect you with your inner being, your inner child, or your sensuality. They should be used
regularly. Ask for further instructions.
7. Hot Salt Water Baths, followed by a cold rinse. This is extremely beneficial! Use 4 handfuls of
good unrefined sea salt, mineral salt, or epsom salt in your tub every time you take a bath! This can
help your skin act as a second kidney in eliminating toxins, it opens your pores, conditions and
heals. You can add different essential oils for added benefit and enjoyment, such as Juniper for
achiness, Melissa for depression or insomnia, Rosemary to rejuvenate, Thyme, Pine, or Eucalyptus
for congestion, Lavender for Pain, and many others. It is very healing and soothing for the skin as
well. A cold rinse is always best, even after a hot shower. It boosts your white blood cells, improves
your immune system, and helps to eliminate toxins.
8. Massages - Are a very beneficial way of releasing stored lactic acid and moving toxins through
your body. Be sure to drink plenty of water (add lemon for added benefit) afterwards, and soak in a
hot, salt water bath to help flush the toxins out of the body so that they are not reabsorbed. They are
also very relaxing and therapeutic for the mind.
9. Life style Habits and Stress Reduction - It is important to take a look at any lifestyle habits that
may create imbalance in the body. Chronic stress, anger and resentment, control issues,
perfectionism are some, as well as the most obvious like smoking, drinking, drugs use (both
prescription and recreational). Exercise and relaxation are vital to good health. Fresh air, meditation,
visualizations, stretching (like Yoga), walking, dancing, music, artwork, and playing are very
therapeutic for body, mind, and soul. Also important are good eating habits - not just WHAT you eat,
but also How, When, Where, and Why you eat! Be sure to sit in a relaxed atmosphere, chew your
food slowly and THOROUGHLY before you swallow. Do not watch TV, talk on the phone, read the
paper, or eat while driving. It disconnects your body from your mind, and doesn't register that you are
eating and digesting. Be aware of your body and look for ways that compliment and bring balance
back into your life. Also look for unresolved emotional issues that may have been stuffed down and
stored in the body, rather than dealt with and released. It is ALWAYS better to be honest with yourself
as well as others, and express your feelings. Counseling or supportive group therapy can be very
helpful.
All of the above suggestions should be included as part of your daily routine. Remember to eat, drink,
and live as naturally as possible. It actually feels great to take really good care of your body! Take
good care of your inner child, that little boy or girl that lives inside of all of us. These suggestions
should not be limited to just Cancer patients, as it is beneficial to everyone for optimal health.
