Asparagus
-- Who knew ?
From a
friend –
My Mom had been taking the
full-stalk canned style
asparagus that she
pureed and she took 4 tablespoons in
the
morning and 4 tablespoons later in the day. She
did
this for over a month. She is on chemo
pills for Stage 3
lung cancer in the pleural
area and her cancer cell
count went from 386
down to 125 as of this past week.
Her
oncologist said she does not need to see him for
3
months.
THE
ARTICLE:
Several years ago, I had
a man seeking asparagus for a
friend who had
cancer. He gave me a photocopied copy
of an
article, entitled, Asparagus for cancer 'printed
in
Cancer News Journal, December 1979. I will
share it
here, just as it was shared with me:
I am a
biochemist, and have specialized in
the relation of diet
to health or over 50
years. Several years ago, I learned
of the
discovery of Richard R. Vensal, D.D.S. that
asparagus might cure cancer. Since then, I
have worked
with him on his project We have
accumulated a number
of favorable case
histories. Here are a few
examples:
Case No. 1,
A man with an almost hopeless case
of
Hodgkin's disease (cancer of the lymph glands)
who
was completely incapacitated. Within 1
year of starting
the asparagus therapy, his
doctors were unable to
detect any signs of
cancer, and he was back on a
schedule of
strenuous exercise.
Case No. 2,
a successful businessman 68 years old
who
suffered from cancer of the bladder for 16
years.
After years of medical treatments,
including radiation
without improvement, he
went on asparagus. Within 3
months,
examinations revealed that his bladder tumor
had disappeared and that his kidneys were
normal.
Case No.
3, a man who had lung cancer. On
March 5th 1971, he
was put on the operating
table where they found
lung cancer so widely
spread that it was inoperable.
The surgeon
sewed him up and declared his case
hopeless.
On April 5th he heard about the Asparagus
therapy and immediately started taking it By
August,
x-ray pictures revealed that all
signs of the cancer had
disappeared..
He
is back at his regular business
routine.
Case No.
4, a woman who was troubled for a
number of
years with skin cancer. She finally
developed different
skin cancers which were
diagnosed by the acting
specialist as
advanced. Within 3 months after starting
on
asparagus, her skin specialist said that her
skin
looked fine and no more skin lesions.
This woman
reported that the asparagus
therapy also cured her
kidney disease, which
started in 1949. She had over 10
operations
for kidney stones, and was
receiving
government disability payments for
an inoperable,
terminal, kidney condition.
She attributes the cure of
this kidney
trouble entirely to the asparagus.
I was
not surprised at this result, as `The elements
of
materia medica', edited in1854 by a
Professor at the
University of Pennsylvania ,
stated that asparagus was
used as a popular
remedy for kidney stones. He even
referred to
experiments, in 1739, on the power
of
asparagus in dissolving stones. Note the
dates!
We would have other case histories but
the medical
establishment has interfered with
our obtaining some
of the records. I am
therefore appealing to readers to
spread this
good news and help us to gather a
large
number of case histories that will
overwhelm the
medical skeptics about this
unbelievably simple and
natural
remedy.
For the
treatment, asparagus should be cooked
before using, and therefore canned asparagus
is just
as good as fresh. I have
corresponded with the two
leading canners of
asparagus, Giant and Stokely, and I
am
satisfied that these brands contain no
pesticides or
preservatives.
Place the
cooked asparagus in a blender and liquefy
to
make a puree, and store in the
refrigerator. Give the
patient 4 full
tablespoons twice daily, morning and
evening.
Patients usually show some improvement in
2-4 weeks. It can be diluted with water and
used as a
cold or hot drink. This suggested
dosage is based on
present experience, but
certainly larger amounts can do
no harm and
may be needed in some cases. As a
biochemist
I am convinced of the old saying that `what
cures can prevent.' Based on this theory, my
wife and I
have been using asparagus puree
as a beverage with
our meals. We take 2
tablespoons diluted in water to
suit our
taste with breakfast and with dinner. I take
mine hot and my wife prefers hers cold. For
years we
have made it a practice to have
blood surveys taken as
part of our regular
checkups. The last blood survey,
taken by a
medical doctor who specializes in the
nutritional approach to health, showed
substantial
improvements in all categories
over the last one, and
we can attribute
these improvements to nothing but
the
asparagus drink.
As a biochemist, I have
made an extensive study of all
aspects of
cancer, and all of the proposed cures. As
a
result, I am convinced that asparagus fits
in better
with the latest theories about
cancer.
Asparagus contains a good supply
of protein called
histones, which are
believed to be active in controlling
cell
growth.. For that reason, I believe asparagus
can
be said to contain a substance that I
call cell growth
normalizer.
That accounts for its action on cancer and
in
acting as a general body tonic. In any
event,
regardless of theory, asparagus used
as we suggest, is
a harmless substance. The
FDA cannot prevent you
from using it and it
may do you much good. It has
been reported
by the US National Cancer Institute,
that
asparagus is the highest tested food
containing
glutathione, which is
considered one of the body's
most potent
anticarcinogens and
antioxidants.
