Chinese find arsenic treats blood cancer
Chinese scientists have recently discovered the mechanism through which the deadly arsenic poison can destroy cancer cells in the blood and save more lives.
Arsenic, long known for its toxic effects, had been used in traditional Chinese medicine for treating various health conditions for at least 2,000 years.
Previous studies had reported the efficacy of the substance in treating acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), a cancer characterized by low red blood cells and platelets count due to the incapability of the bone marrow in producing these cells; its mechanism of action, however, remained unclear.
According to a study published in Science, arsenic targets and destroys specific proteins required for keeping the cancerous tissue alive.
"Unlike chemotherapy, the side effects of arsenic (in treating acute promyelocytic leukemia) are very low. There is no hair loss or suppression of bone marrow (function). We are interested in finding out how arsenic can be used in other cancers," said lead researcher Zhang Xiaowei.
Scientists stressed that more than 90 percent of APL patients in China will have at least five years of disease-free survival using this therapy.

Hmm ... "a retired cancer expert for the USA, this man had more experience in cancer treatments in the USA than any other man in USA history. He asked out of ALL of the methods used in the USA, what would "YOU" reccomend. He had but one answer: 30 raw appricot seeds ground into powder and consumed daily. After well, then 7 seeds daily for life"

Dr. John R. Christopher had one warning:
To be safe, eat the whole fruit and not just the seeds.
Some seeds are toxic and some seeds like apple are toxic in large dose, even fatal. Apple seeds have been known to kill a person with only a 1/4 cup of pure seeds or this may be a wives tale, I don't know.................. People normally eat the safe seeds that are made in to nut butters, etc.
The apricot/peach seeds cure the cancers because of their toxic arsenic and normally a dose of 30 seeds per day which is a HUGE amount compared to the apple seed.
The vets still use arsenic allot to kill heart worms, etc. in dogs. Many years ago most all houses had a bottle of arsenic in the medicine cabinet. A old horse trainer told me he used arsenic his entire life and never seen a doctor. He smoked cigars all the time and lived into his eighties. He would take a drop of arsenic and add a drop each day to 10 days, then reverse it bacwards, so a treatment would be 20 days total. He did this with all of hs horses that were race horses. I would think eating apricot seeds in a similar manner would have a similair effect. Some people eat apricot seeds every day of their life.
I can only suggest that eating any seed other than the common seeds is risky.... It would be like eating unknown plants until you found the toxic one that you didn't wake up from. For thousands of years people have consumed plants/seeds and learned which ones kill and which one heal and plenty of books written about such things. I say learn from the past and don't repeat the bad experiments over again.

Dr. John R. Christopher always seeked info on cancer. He interveiwed a retired cancer expert for the USA, this man had more experience in cancer treatments in the USA than any other man in USA history. He asked out of ALL of the methods used in the USA, what would "YOU" reccomend.
He had but one answer: 30 raw appricot seeds ground into powder and consumed daily. After well, then 7 seeds daily for life.
I have seen 7 seeds make a cancer person very nausiated, but soon they can work up to 30 a day.
Dr. Christopher took it 1 step better, he suggest you eat the whole appricot, because with out the friendly bacteria/enzymes the arsenic will not work well.
So the ideal cancer treatment would be to eat 30 appricots daily and nothing else, to me this would be a perfect cure for all diseases known to mankind. There were well over 1,000 perfect cures by 1950, this being one I just made up today!
Natural arsenic in plants is not harmful in my opinion, I use to study the theory of appricot seeds and see it completely harmless.
