Aloe Therapy for Cancer Patients: Aloe Therapy & Aloe-Based Cancer Care Supplement

As you find out in the book, Cancer Can Be Cured!, it began in Brazil with Father Romano Zago, a Catholic priest who discovered the natives their using it against all types of degenerative diseases. He then developed the original all-natural formula. It has the ability to supercharge your immune system. This helps your body to more naturally and safely kill the cancer cells and at the same time will infuse your body with several super-nutrients.

Many health practitioners and alternative cancer experts rate aloe as a stage IV supplemental treatment, and can be taken along with highly potent stage IV protocols, including radiation and chemo (if the patient elects to use them). An increasing number of clinics are using aloe to help the effectiveness of the chemo agents cyclophosphamide (Cytoxan, Neosar) and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU).²

Aloe also provides the nutrients necessary to activate Macrophages. These are another type of white blood cell that collect and digest cell waste, and cells that don’t have the regular protein markers of a healthy cell. Cancer cells fall into this category, as well as most types of bacteria, and other intruders.

Simply, Aloe can be used as a powerful immune stimulant to help kill cancer and invading organisms.³  Many medical studies have confirmed aloe’s anti-cancer effects. The main reason for this is Acemannan, found in aloe leaves. Acemannan has immune-stimulating properties, glycoprotein, along with anthraquinone and phenolic antioxidants. Aloe also increases nitric oxide, a strong anti-cancer compound used by your own body’s immune cells.⁴

Throughout a lifetime, each of us will experience a number of illnesses caused by infectious organisms or exposure to chemical agents that cause allergic responses. These reactions are initiated and usually carried through to healing by the immune system. The immune system is the major entity that protects the body against potentially harmful foreign substances and the multiplicity of potentially infectious agents.

Aloe is a genus of plants with a notable history of various medical uses. Basic research studies over the past couple of decades have revealed the growing extent of pharmaceutical potential, particularly against neoplastic diseases. The two most used aloe species are Aloe arborescens and Aloe barbadensis (Aloe vera).

These aloe species contain several very large polysaccharides (many sugars? Consisting of glucose (blood sugar) and mannose (various plants) which, when administered to animals and humans, cause the release of substances from certain white blood cells that form and activate natural killer cells (NKC) that attack cancer cells and cause their demise (death).

1. Natural killer cells are part of the natural immune system and they kill tumor cells and cells infected by viruses.

2. Natural killer cells do not require programming by prior contact with antigens.

3. Natural killer cells attach to the cancer cell and inject chemicals that can kill the cancer cell in less than five minutes.

One of the greatest advantages of such a system for destroying cancer cells is that it can destroy every last cancer cell, something none of the other modes of treatment can accomplish.

This Brazilian immune health formula was published by Brazilian scolar Father Ramano Zago and was used in clinical studies in collaboration with Paolo Lissoni, Oncologist at the Division of Radiation Oncology, St. Gerardo hospital, Monza, Milan, Italy.

A study was planned to include 240 patients with metastatic solid tumors who were randomized to receive chemotherapy with or without Aloe. According to tumor histotype and clinical status, lung patients were treated with cisplatin and ectoposide or weekly vinoselbine, colorectal patients received oxaliplatic plus 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), gastric cancer patients received weekly germcitobine. Aloe arborescens was given orally at a dose of 10ml thrice daily of a mixture consisting of 300g of Aloe fresh leaves in 500g of honey plus 40ml of 40% alcohol, every day without interruption, either during or after chemotherapy, until the progression of the disease, starting six days prior to the onset of chemotherapy. Aloe mixture was supplied by Deca (Isernia, Italy). The percentage of both objective tumor regression and disease control was significantly higher in patients concomitantly treated alone, as well as the percent of 3-year survival patients.

The study suggests that aloe may be successfully associated with chemotherapy to increase its efficacy in terms of both tumor regression rate and survival time.

Honey has also been shown to have anticancer properties, including inhibition of tumor cell transformation and proliferation and induction of apoptosis. Based on ethonopharmalogical studies, the combination of honey and Aloe arborescens or Aloe vera is a common practice in alternative medicine, especially used in Brazil and South America.
