Cancer does not kill people.
Chemotherapy, radiation, surgeries, and biopsies do.
Cancer is not an enemy…
You cannot fight or kill it.
‘Cancer’ is a protective mechanism of your body to keep you alive, even though it is
overloaded with toxicity.
Poisoning the body with chemotherapy, radiation, colonoscopies, surgeries, biopsies, and chemical medications only causes further deterioration and degeneration of an already compromised body.
What you can do is support and nourish your body to allow it the ability
to detoxify and heal itself completely.
Cancer tumors are just pockets of acidic waste that the body uses to protect your organs and glands!
The body is just trying to heal and regain homeostasis.
Tumors shrink when you stop eating inappropriate food and open your
elimination channels to expel acidic waste!
Create the right environment for your body and then don’t hinder its efforts to heal everything!

Quoting ‘Dr. Robert Morse’, the post claims that cancer is not the killer, but rather ‘chemotherapy, radiation, surgeries, and biopsies’. It suggests that cancer is actually a protective mechanism of the body. According to the post, ‘Cancer tumors are just pockets of acidic waste that the body uses to protect your organs and glands’, and they shrink if the patient ‘stops eating inappropriate food’.
However, it is important to clarify that Robert Morse is not a medical doctor. According to his official website, which mainly promotes supplements, he is a naturopath.
Faktoje has previously debunked the claim that chemotherapy is deadly, not cancer itself. At that time, Dr. Orges Spahiu, Head of the Radiotherapy Unit at University Hospital Center ‘Mother Teresa’ Oncology Service, confirmed to Faktoje that:
‘Treatments based on scientific evidence are what ensures effective cancer treatment. Advances in Radiotherapy, Chemotherapy, and Surgery have led to a significant cure rate, reaching up to 99% for some types of tumors, depending on the type and stage of the disease.’
Doctor Spahiu also emphasized that the two main scientifically proven and internationally certified therapies to fight tumors are radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Radiotherapy uses varying energy radiation to eliminate tumor cells, minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissues and organs. Chemotherapy involves anti-tumor drugs that travel through the bloodstream to fight cancer cells.
Finally, the doctor offered a crucial piece of advice to all readers: ‘Consult a doctor for any concerns or doubts you may have, and do not fall for false alternatives. The treatments for this disease are only those that are scientifically proven.’
The claim that cancer can be cured by changing one’s diet is also false. There is no reliable evidence to support this assertion. The advice from dietitians, which is often misinterpreted, actually emphasizes the importance of consuming a healthy diet and maintaining a regular physical regimen to prevent the development of cancerous cells. Therefore, while nutrition is crucial for prevention, it is not a viable treatment once cancer has already manifested in the body.
According to the Australian charitable organization Cancer Council, individuals with cancer should adhere to a well-balanced diet to help maintain their weight during treatment. There is no specific diet that can ‘cure cancer’ and there is no evidence that adhering to a strict diet would offer any advantage.
While there is no definitive cure for cancer, there are treatments available that have the potential to cure some individuals of certain types of cancer.
