Re: GreaterJoy FW: Asparagus & Cancer

Dear Dr. Ed,

I read your article on asparagus with great interest. I have had
the privilege of studying with several of the pioneers of natural
healing in the U.S., and I worked, personally, with Rev.Hanna
Kroeger, here in CO, for 21 years.

Hanna taught her students the asparagus treatment in the 70's, and
while I have shared it with people, over the years, and have actually
met people for whom the protocol has worked successfully, I have
never seen the amount of documentation that you've provided in your
email to the Greater Joy group.

Hanna simply had people with cancer eat asparagus three times a day,
in addition to their normal diet. Do you find it necessary to puree
it?

Thank you, so much, for taking the time to share this valuable
information with us today.

Sincerely,

Vicki Opfer

Hello all,

This isn't about oils but I think worth while to pass along.

Subject: Fw: Asparagus & Cancer

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 NewsJournal, 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 favorable 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,
including 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 no more skin lesions. This woman reported that the asparagus
therapy also cure 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 ofPennsylvania, 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
and Stokely, and I am satisfied that these brands contain no
pesticides or preservatives.
Place the cooked asparagus in a blender and liquefy to make a puree, and
store in the refrigerator. 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. God bless.

and a response to this was:Hello Dr. Ed and Group,

Just thought I'd add my two cents of concurrence with this article. I have a
friend who told me that he and his family have used this numerous times to
eliminate cysts, of any kind.

He said definitely canned asparagus, puree it, and then he said 3 Tbs, 3
times/day.

The cysts would be gone in just a short time.


May you be blessed with God's Greatness,

Millie Troth
