Thank you for these inspiring stories and for getting the word out. It is sad to think how so many providers prey on people’s fears at such a vulnerable time.

Most people (~70%) would rather die under the care of a doctor than survive under their own.

Unfortunately this is true. A dear friend was diagnosed with metastatic esophageal cancer. I printed out these substacks and several case studies from Stanford. I even bought supplies. All fell on deaf ears, because the "white coat" would notice in the blood work and "get mad". His cancer actually grew during the chemo and he is now dying.

My husband is taking IVM and Fenben for bladder cancer the last 3 weeks. His question is do you divide the doses (he is taking 2 each of the IVM (222 and fenben 440). He has been dividing them into morning and dinner. Is this better?. Thank you!!! He is tolerating them well.

There are fb groups that have a lot of information. Try searching for Fenbendazole support group.

Can someone please direct me to a veterinarian who would help me with my dog who, on ultrasound, shows a “cyst” and a “mass” on her pancreas/gallbladder area? I want to try fenbendazole/ivermectin but have no idea about dosing and would prefer someone who knows what they’re doing to oversee her care.

If you don’t find veterinarian, you can read a few cases here described for dog’s cancer treatments.

Feeling very angry, upset and frustrated today at an unnecessary death, brought about by Cancer Therapy. The second loss in a friend’s family from Cancer in 5 years. I sent videos, your info , studies, research and everything I could find and was ready to give the medicinals in support of the person, but they didn’t take the step because they were in hospital. I was told, rather angrily, by a relative, “ if the doctors find out he’s taking these, they’ll stop treating him.” They (the doctors) wasted the last few weeks of his life, - he was trying to get home - treating him, with an incorrect treatment that worsened his health within days leading to coma and death. It need not have happened. Now there’s just more heartbreak and regret. Lives ruined. How do you convince someone to try this protocol? My observation is that people are not clear that most Cancer treatments are only about prolonging life, not curing the disease. People become dependent on their doctors and are vulnerable and fearful of even considering an alternative and relatives, though beside themselves with anxiety at the thought of losing another loved one, are also too frightened to even try. I had proposed it ALONGSIDE the Chemo and Radiotherapy if the person was worried to choose one or the other. And, to my knowledge, there is a queue of acquaintances, relatives, friends bringing up the rear with all sorts of cancers at different stages and degrees of ferocity but people don’t seem to be able to pull themselves away from Hospital Cancer Wards. What can we do about this?

Unfortunately, you can't convince some people. My mom had ALS and there have been some people diagnosed with ALS who actually had Lyme. She didn't want to consider it ( she had lived in PA and had dogs). I had to let it go...

I find myself biting my tongue, and swallowing bile, constantly, as friends, family are shocked, dismayed and taken aback by all the recent untimely deaths. What on earth could it be?🤔

Should one take this as a preventative measure? Which would be better than the other? I cannot take any form of CBD as I get red flag warnings that it would be a bad thing to combine with other prescriptions, I take which are Suboxone and Xanax.

What do you use for fuel for your body then if you eliminate carbs? The story of no sugar for cancer is much more complicated than that. Cancers can also use fatty acids. They can use any substrate. Fats have little to no actual nutritional value as well. It’s not magic. People lose weight because they eat less calories. Less appetite. Less nutrients . That’s it. Duh. Protein is used differently, mainly muscle. Less food and energy production leads to destruction of the body the same that chemo does. I’d not myself go that route. Easy to digest carbs are burned quickly for energy. I can’t see where eliminating the fuel that your body and brain prefers over even ketones can help. I think we are not getting the real truth about this either. I would eat a balanced diet heavy on fruit, rice, lean meats, potatoes, clean cooked veg, no seed oils or modern GMO grains whatsoever, dairy if tolerated. My sister did basically a keto diet. She’s dead.

Keto. Your body will convert fat to energy.

Using your stress pathway. It is the pathway that was evolved to give extra energy for sudden needs of energy. Like running away from danger. Gluconeogenisis. If you are using it for energy 24/7 cortisol and adrenaline and other STRESS hormones are used in a complicated system to create only about 2 ATP (energy) at the mitochondria—your energy engine. .. much much less than glucose. Typing your comment used energy. Blinking uses ATP. What does gluconeogenisis use then—. Lacking substrate (glucose) it begins to take from tissues, organs and bones. The liver is involved. More stress. It’s a backasswards way to fuel and I believe that’s not the way to heal from cancer or go long years that way and neither do others. There is benefit to getting off toxic food and that’s what is probably going on plus the repurposed drugs and should be the focus but hardly all cancers feed on sugar. They feed on fatty acids also. Eventually it will feed on anything to replicate. Cancer feeds on energy by Destroying the mitochondria along with the cells. Why add the stress ? Why lower metabolism when you will need energy? Fat has no real nutrition. It’s not some magic substance. Butter has barely any nutrients . Eat good clean food. All we have is air water and food to run our body. Why deprive it at the most destructive time of life? Why add stress caused by those unregulated stress hormones when you need a functioning body and brain and metabolism ? I don’t have cancer but 12 years of low carb and keto caused much damage to my metabolism and thyroid. I was filled with anxiety (stress hormones ). I can gain weight on 800 calories. Underfed. Thinned my bones. Raised my BP. My sister ate little to replace energy and she didn’t last long under the ravages of chemo. I think we’ve been fooled by keto etc. Getting off toxic food is the best thing anyone can do. Cancer patients too but I believe “starving” it is too simplistic and ignores how our bodies really operate. My husband is going on the full nutrition course which builds the immune system. He has under eaten for years and if he took out sugar, he would be overcome im sure by disease. But each to their own. Take care.

Thank you for sharing your insights and experience! You're not the first person I've heard from who's found strict keto to be damaging over time

I’m older and didn’t eat enough calcium. Keto kills appetite. I had 2 surgeries for broken bones in 3 years. One required a half hip replacement. OMAD could be a disaster in time. I didn’t do that but intermittent fasting was bad enough. I’m on a forum for peop,e trying to recover. It can actually cause insulin resistance in time and glucose metabolism irregularities. There are many of us trying to recover. 1 year and still trying to raise my metabolism and calorie level. Get my thyroid to function correctly again. Gained weight but I was doing that anyway by the time I got off. But info is getting out now. I recommend the Jay Feldman Energy Balance Podcast or Kate Deerings book or her appearances on podcasts YouTube. It’s pro metabolic eating in a nutshell. Take care. I truly believe substack has saved my life and it’s only here I learned about IVM and Fenben for cancer. My hubby is now on these. 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

Is it possible an “everything in moderation” and “eat when you are hungry” diet would work? Yes, I know some people that would eat all the time. However, most people won’t.

Kind of where I am now. I was low carb for 12 years and my metabolism was damaged along with my thyroid and thinner bones. Good clean food. It’s harder and harder to find unpolluted and toxic food so I’m glad I live in the country surrounded by local food. My husband eats poorly and very skinny. Just getting him on real food should help him get through this cancer challenge. Of course, folks should do what works and short term fasting has a place there too.
