ALTERNATIVE CANCER TREATMENTS

Mushrooms

You should all know by now how important NK (natural killer) cells are in your fight against cancer. MGN-3 and Agaricus mushrooms are among my personal favorites for boosting NK activity. Now there is another mushroom, called the AHCC (activatied hexose correlate compound) and is sold in a formula called ImmPower that fights both cancer and the side effects of chemotherapy.

AHCC is an extract of an hybridization of several medical mushrooms, each of which has a long history of medicinal use in Japan. However, AHCC's action is so much more powerful than the mushrooms from which it comes, that studies show it has been effective against liver cancer, prostate cancer, ovarian cancer, multiple myeloma, breast cancer, and AIDS.

It is suggested that AHCC is successful because of its molecular weight. It is so small that it is easily absorbed in the stomach instead of digested. Studies published in Society of Natural Immunity [1997], Anti-Cancer Drugs [vol. 9, pp.343-350, 1998], and International Journal of Immunology [XI (1), pp. 23-28, 1995] show that AHCC boosts immune response in the following ways:

  • stimulates cytokine production
  • increases NK cell activity as much as 300% as well as increasing the explosive granules inside the NK cell
  • increases interferon levels (editor's note: if you get interferon from your physician you know that if the cost doesn't kill you, the side effects might)
  • increases formation of Tumor Necrosis Factor (which destroy cancer cells)
  • Increases the number and activity of helper T-Cells up to 200%

We don’t know yet which is more powerful, MGN-3 or ImmPower, but since everyone is different, it's really up to you. Reports are amazing. Some users swear that ImmPower gives them more energy to get through the day. And again, and probably most important, there are no side effects. 

ImmPower can be purchased from Harmony Company (P.O. Box 93, Northvale, NJ 07647-0093) at 800.404.4428. It costs 49.95 for a 30 capsule bottle.
