Alternative Cancer Treatment - The Budwig Protocol

Johanna Budwig was a German biochemist who lived from 1908-2003. She was nominated seven times for the Nobel Prize, and is especially known for her work regarding "healthy fats." Over a period of 50 years, she worked with severely ill cancer patients and claimed a 90% success rate with treating their cancer.

Her protocol is best known for the use of flax oil mixed with quark (most people today use organic cottage cheese or organic yogurt cheese). However, there is much more to it than that. While it may seem a little overwhelming when you first begin to implement the protocol, it quickly becomes the new norm. Because Dr. Budwig strongly discouraged most supplements, her protocol is very inexpensive to implement compared to other alternative cancer protocols.

Choosing an alternative path to healing can be very lonely. Often your friends will not understand, and your doctor will almost never be sympathetic to the choices you are making. You will find absolutely awesome support and information regarding the Budwig Protocol on the Yahoo Group, flaxseedoil2 (click the blue letters to go there). You can learn everything you need to know about this protocol from this group at absolutely NO COST to you. The information is true to Dr. Budwig's writings, and the support is priceless. This group is quickly approaching 9000 members and is very active. The moderator, Sandra Olson, has studied Dr. Budwig's materials very thoroughly and does a great job of keeping the group on track. When you ask for advice from this group, you might not always get the answer you were hoping for, but you will always be encouraged to follow Dr. Budwig's plan precisely.

Another great resource is the website, budwig-videos.com. Members of flaxseedsoil2 encouraged Sandra Olson to start this website to help newcomers with implementing the protocol. Sometimes you just need to SEE it in order to understand. There is a wealth of information on this site. Much of it is free, but to see the full content there is a membership fee. If you have cancer, it would be well worth your money to join this website at least temporarily. Even though I have read all the content I enjoy being a member of it because I know that a lot of money was spent to get it up and running and to keep it updated. I want to support the cause as well as be able to see any new content that is added.

If you got your information on how to mix the flax oil and cottage cheese from Dr. Budwig's books, the Yahoo Group flaxseedoil2, or budwig-videos.com, all the recipes will match because they are based directly on Dr. Budwig's writings. If you got it from somewhere else, the information is most likely inaccurate. Two things are important: the 2:1 ratio of cottage cheese to oil and the thorough blending of the two together. Any source that does not mention these two things is not giving you the information you will need to effectively implement the protocol. Further, the protocol is so much more than just the flax oil and cottage cheese. You can learn about this in detail from the books, the group, or the website.
