I have taken my personal experience in practice along with the details of
treatment of patient together with published literature and proposed a
testable theory of breast cancer. The lack of a theory of cancer and
especially breast cancer has made treatment difficult and empirical.
The book is divided into four parts. The first part discusses iodine. From
published facts, we can arrive at a proposal that iodine could be the first
phase of a two phase cancer defence system. It appears that iodine in the
extra-cellular fluid outside of the cells is the main surveillance system
for abnormal cells. Iodine also triggers the natural death of normal cells
in the body. There are many cells types in the body undergoing a natural
death. For example some of the cells in the stomach have lives of only 2-3
days. The name of this process is apoptosis.
Carefully documented descriptions of the cancer process at different places
in the body reveals most cancers have similar stages through which it
passes. The cancers are not really cancer until the cells start to move by
invasion through the nearby connective tissue. Cells develop abnormalities
for a variety of reasons and can continue to become abnormal all the way up
through atypical cells and to carcinoma in situ. Carcinoma in situ is the
dividing line between the two phases of cancer development. Iodine in
correct doses will reverse all of the changes up to and including the
carcinoma in situ.
The thyroid hormone controls connective tissue function. So connective
tissue around organs forms a structural biological barrier to the spread of
cancer. Cancer spread to distant organs only develops in the connective
tissue of those organs. Therefore, if the connective tissue defence is not
strong then the cancerous cell from a distant site can land there and grow.
If however the thyroid hormone level in the connective tissue is high enough
then the connective tissue will perform its normal defence duties and not
allow the cancer cell to enter it and develop.
Using these principles, fibrocystic disease and breast cancer become more
understandable. Supplemental iodine in the correct doses will remove all
lesions from carcinoma in situ back to just an abnormal cell by triggering
death of these cells by apoptosis. Spread of cancer cells in the connective
tissue can be arrested by adequate treatment with thyroid hormone to
strengthen the connective tissue barrier.
My experience with patients using this approach so far has been successful.
The principles are that there are two phases to cancer one controlled by
iodine and the other by thyroid hormone. Thus the book deals with the
prevention and survival of breast cancer.
