An Enzyme-Based Nutritional Protocol In Metastatic Cancer: Case Reports Of A Patient With Colon Cancer And A Patient With Lung Cancer

Altern Ther Health Med. 2019 Jul;25(4):16-19.

Abstract

Context: The author and others have previously published case reports demonstrating positive results in patients with cancer utilizing lifestyle modification which includes high doses of a product rich in pancreatic enzymes.

Objective: The study reports on outcomes of two patients utilizing this nutritional protocol, one with colon cancer metastatic to the liver and lung, another with lung cancer metastatic to the brain.

Design: Retrospective case studies.

Setting: The patients were seen in an outpatient clinic in New York City, and implemented their protocols in their homes in the United States of America.

Participants: The patients in these case reports are two men in their 60s.

Intervention: The patients were instructed in the self-administration of a nutritional protocol consisting of dietary modifications, a supplement protocol including high doses of a pancreas product naturally rich in enzymes, and detoxification including the use of coffee enemas.

Outcome measures: Records were reviewed for evidence of prolonged survival and/or improvement or resolution of radiographically apparent disease.

Results: The patients experienced both prolongation of life and resolution of radiographically apparent disease.

Conclusions: While case reports cannot be considered as proof of efficacy, these cases added to others of patients treated with the same method would suggest that this is a viable option for those patients whose disease cannot be treated successfully with other modalities.
