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 for 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 favourable 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,includin g
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 asking
specialist as advanced. Within 3 months after starting on asparagus, her
skin specialist said that her skin looked fine and nomore
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 in 1854 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.
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 Giant and Stokely, and I am satisfied that these brands contain no
pesticides or preservatives.
** * PROCEDURE:*
1) Place the cooked asparagus in a blender and liquefy to make a puree, and
store in the refrigerator.
2) Give the patient 4 full tablespoons twice daily, morning and evening.
Patients usually show some improvement in from 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 inacting 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* .
*
Please spread the news...*
...the most unselfish act one can ever do is paying forward all the kindness
one has received even to the most undeserved person * *
All the very best *
