Why Cancer Treatment Should Target Body-O2 Levels

What are the causes of cancer? What are conclusions of research studies? Are there any successful alternative natural therapies for cancer treatment? You probably know about Dr. Tullio Simoncini (Rome, Italy) who uses baking soda or sodium bicarbonate as a cure or treatment of cancer tumors. This is probably the most effective Western method for cancer. Can baking soda cure cancer? How can sodium bicarbonate influence tumors? What are the key causes of cancer? All these questions are investigated in this YouTube video that you see on the right side.

Natural cancer treatment is possible only if we have clear understanding of what causes this disease. Once the cause of removed or altered (improved), we can expect disappearance of the tumor. The suggested new cancer treatment therapy is based on breathing normalization. Consider medical evidence.

Doctors Who Cure Cancer (Kindle Book)

The main features of this book:
- over 100 clinical studies quoted
- cutting-edge medical research articles about the cellular causes of cancer (low O2 content in cells of the body leading to low pH, generation of free radicals, immunosuppression, and fast growth of tumors)
- the cause of low O2 in cells (ineffective breathing patterns) confirmed by numerous studies
- detailed analysis of the clinical trial on metastatic breast cancer that reduced mortality in metastatic cancer about 6 times
- why breathing pure O2 is very dangerous for health

Do cancer patients have ineffective breathing? Yes, breathing rates of cancer patients is an independent predictor of their survival (Chiang et al, 2009; de Miguel Sanchez et al, 2006; Groeger et al, 1998). Those who breathe more do not benefit from any cancer treatment, die sooner or have lower survival rates. Read more about breathing parameters in terminal cancer ...	How and why does ineffective breathing of cancer patients reduce oxygenation of their body cells and efficiency of cancer treatment? During normal breathing human blood has 98-99% O2 saturation. Hence, over-breathing cannot increase blood oxygenation in any significant degree, but decreases carbon dioxide Read more...
So what: less carbon dioxide and less oxygen in cells. Do cancer patients need oxygen in cells and tissues? Since the times when Nobel Laureate, Dr. Otto Warburg many decades ago discovered that cancer is based on cell hypoxia, hundreds of new studies have found the same. Read more...	Ok, if carbon dioxide is so beneficial for cell oxygenation, is there any evidence that cancer patients can benefit from extra CO2? Numerous studies and trials proved that additional CO2 improves oxygenation and perfusion of tumors. Read more about Carbogen and CO2 effects on cancer.

Hence, medical evidence indicates that cancer patients breathe more than medical norms and, as a result, have less CO2 in body cells causing reduced oxygenation of their tissues. This will promote development of tumors, while supplemental CO2 improves blood supply and oxygen delivery to malignant cells. Now we can suggest a possible answer to the question "What causes cancer?". However, in order to find effective cancer cure, let us consider the influence of risk lifestyle factors and any cancer clinical trials that involved breathing normalization or breathing retraining.

Can tissue pollution affect our breathing? Presence of toxic substances (medical drugs, carcinogens, tobacco smoke, etc.) in certain organs of the body intensify respiration (our outer breathing) due to stress on the immune system and organs of elimination (the kidneys, liver, skin, etc.). Hence, a person’s breathing will be deeper (increased tidal volume) and heavier (greater minute ventilation).

Lifestyle factors and their interactions with breathing. Our breathing reacts to any changes during our interaction with the environment. Hence, there are numerous lifestyle factors that influence breathing. Some lifestyle factors can intensify breathing 2-3 times, while we usually do not notice these changes. Read more ...

Cardio-respiratory parameters of terminal cancer patients (their heart rate and respiratory frequency) are predicted by 1960 Buteyko table of health zones, as a group of Spanish doctors from Madrid revealed in their study “Palliative Performance Status, Heart Rate and Respiratory Rate as Predictive Factors of Survival Time in Terminally Ill Cancer Patients” (de Miguel Sanchez et al, 2006) published in the Journal of Pain and Symptom Management.

Metastasized breast cancer clinical trial: Fivefold reduction in 3-year mortality for breathing normalization group. One hundred twenty patients with metastasized breast cancer participated in this controlled study published in Oncology Journal (Kiev). Read more ...

According to clinical experience of Russian and Ukrainian medical doctors, the Buteyko method can reverse earlier stages of cancer (stages 1 and 2), while there is a definite improvement in the quality of life for patients who have cancer in stages 3 and 4.
