What If Breast Cancer Is Really A Fungus?

According to the National Cancer Center at the National Institute of Health, the word cancer is “a term used for diseases in which abnormal cells divide uncontrollably and are able to invade other tissues.” We all know the rest of the story─thousands of lives lost from Breast Canceralone and billions of dollars wasted in the drive to “find a cure.”

Despite all this, surgery, chemo and radiation are still the only conventional options available. But what if conventional cancer research and the treatment plans that stem from them, have been asking the wrong questions?

The Cancer-Fungus Connection

“[The terms] ‘tumor’ and ‘cancer’ are formal descriptions. They do not say anything at all,” says Dr. Tullio Simoncini, a trained physician based in Rome, Italy who specializes in oncology, diabetes and metabolic disorders. His book, Cancer Is A Fungus (Edizioni, 2007), examines the causes of rogue cells dividing to form malignant tumors. His conclusion: “Cancer is a fungus that will do what all fungi do─form colonies and spread throughout the host area.”

He first made this “out-of-the-box” connection after he noticed the milky-white appearance inside the cancer tumors in his patients. As any woman who has suffered through a yeast infection can confirm, this is similar to how surface-area outbreaks such as candida albicans often appear.

Another link between fungi and cancer is their relationship with sugar. Healthy cells in our bodies use glucose and oxygen to produce ATP (adenosine triphosphate), which is the main source of energy for cell function. Cancer cells, on the other hand, use fermentation to produce ATP. Fermentation does not use oxygen and is, in general, a very inefficient way to produce energy. Cancer cells must consume large amounts of sugar in order to survive and grow.

Cancer cells love sugar and so do fungi. What is the first thing you do when candida gets out of control? That’s right─lay off the sugar and simple carbs like bread and pasta. Sugar feeds cancer and it feeds fungal growth as well.

In addition, growing fungi produce chemicals called mycotoxins, which have played some part in the development of cancer in humans according to experimental data.  The connection between mycotoxins and cancer lies in its ability to effect the protein production within cells. For example, it can effect protein 53 (p53), a protein that, when healthy, can activate other proteins that repair DNA. According to Dr. Lynn Jennings, family practitioner and medical writer: “A defective p53 protein could allow abnormal cells to proliferate, resulting in cancer. As many as 50% of all human tumors contain p53 mutations.”

If Cancer is a Fungus, Then Treat it Like a Fungus

Dr. A.V. Constantini, retired head of the World Health Organization’s center for mycotoxins in food, believes that an anti-fungal cancer medication may be just over the horizon. Over the last decades, there has been some anecdotal evidence to support this prediction. Dr. Simoncini, on the other hand, is more doubtful because of the basic nature of fungi itself. “They are social elements,” he says. “They network and they will adapt.”

Dr. Simoncini’s solution to heal cancer naturally is simple. It adheres to the basic principles of natural cancer therapies and to my 7 Essentials ™ System, an evidence-based approach to support and heal the body naturally: change the internal environment in the body from one of acidity (which cancer cells love) to alkalinity.

Dr. Simoncini recommends the use of simple Baking Soda, or sodium bicarbonate therapy. Because the most effective way to shrink tumors is through direct contact with the sodium bicarbonate, in most cases a catheter is used to go through the arteries to the organs within the body. For some cancers, including Breast Cancer, a simple local infiltration or injection can be used instead. Dr. Simoncini himself claims that this method carries a 99% success rate for healing Breast Cancer without surgery.

One can also enjoy an alkaline Baking Soda drink every day. In a glass of purified water, add the juice of ½ lemon and 1 teaspoon baking soda. Stir and enjoy. Because this is such an alkaline drink, always consume it 30 minutes before and at least two hours after a meal. Proper digestion requires an acidic pH in the stomach.

In order to prevent Breast Cancer naturally, follow a healthy anti-cancer regime that includes the “7 Essentials” of an anti-cancer diet, herbal supplementation, detoxing, emotional healing, biological dentistry, energy balancing and early detection. Maintaining the proper alkaline balance in your body is key to keeping fungal growth─and Breast Cancer─at bay.94 Comments. Share your thoughts below:

"Cancer is a fungus, called candida albicans, and it can be treated using sodium bicarbonate". So says Tulio Simoncini

Simoncini is a former Italian oncologist in Rome who developed a theory that all cancer is caused exclusively by a fungus called candida albicans.  His alternative cancer treatment is simple: To alkalise the body and tumour by the use of a cheap, common compound, sodium bicarbonate, tackling the candida, shrinking the tumour and stopping metastases. Thus it is also a natural cancer cure.

At this point we would like to remind readers of our often repeated stance that we do not believe that any single thing is the cause of all cancer. In 2012 MD Anderson analysed the histology and biochemistry of all their recent DCIS breast cancer patients (over 1400 women) and concluded that every person was different.

We cover Simoncini purely because people write in and ask about him. Also, much of what is on the internet is inaccurate. We are not fans of Simoncini or his theory and approach.

Candida, beneficial bacteria, acid bodies and cancer

The background to Simoncini´s work involves the following theoretical elements:

Firstly, acid bodies are known to be linked to ill health and cancer. (Click here for article on Acid Bodies and Cancer)

Secondly, sodium bicarbonate can alkalise your body. It has been used in many preparations as an antacid; an indigestion aid. You can buy a small pot of it in high street chemists for a little over one pound.

Thirdly, the beneficial bacteria in your intestine are now known to direct up to 85 per cent of your immune response, to release anti-cancer vitamins (like biotin, B-12, folic acid, vitamin K) from your foods and even to produce a compound (sodium butyrate) which causes cancer cells to self-destruct. Beneficial bacteria work imperfectly if the acidity of the gut increases. (Click here to read about beneficial bacteria.) We have a book on the importance of a healthy microbiome called ´The Secret Source of your Good Health´.

However, fourthly, at night when you sleep, beneficial bacteria digest vast quanities of microbes, fungus and yeasts that you consumed during the day with your food. In fact their favourite food is the yeast or fungus, Candida albicans. So, they are your first line of defence. We have another article on how you might use diet to rid your body of excesses of candida - Click here to read, Can Candida cause cancer?

So how might candida cause cancer?

Candida albicans is known to be able to escape the intestine and travel around the body in the blood stream. Oregano oil and cinnamon can kill the yeast in the blood stream. About 25 per cent of type-2 Diabetics were shown to improve when given cinnamon. This is because the fungus sits on the outer membranes of cells, preventing crucial receptor sites from working properly - in the case of diabetes, those receptor sites are for insulin. However, candida also produces a sugar-like waste product. people with higher blood sugar levels develop more cancer; and survive less.

But there is a second potential problem. Yeasts like candida are anaerobes - this means they generate their energy in the absence of oxygen. Once in the blood stream they can colonise certain local areas of the body and greatly reduce the oxygen levels in that area. The result is that the local cells do not die, but switch their own energy production from an oxygen-based system to one that doesn´t use oxygen.  This is the system employed by cancer cells, which also do not use oxygen to generate their energy from food molecules. In fact, Otto Warburg won a Nobel Prize in 1931 for telling the world this property of cancer cells and that oxygen was their enemy!

Is it, then, any surprise then that women who had taken antibiotics more than 25 times during their lifetime had twice the risk of breast cancer, according to research covered in CANCERactives research service Cancer Watch? Their friendly bacteria were reduced allowing candida more chance to survive in the gut and move to the blood stream. Their immune systems were weak, indicated by the illnesses that required the antibiotics. And so on.

Dr Simoncini was a respected Italian Oncologist until he developed his theory ... His theory is that all cancer is caused by the fungus, candida albicans. His cure is to alkalse the body to produce conditions in which the candida could not thrive. His main weapon is the inexpensive, sodium bicarbonate. He was struck off, in Italy.

Yeast infections and candida

At CANCERactive we have drawn cancer patients attentions to candida albicans and yeast as one possible driver of cancers before. We have given ideas on testing for yeast infections (for example, Vega testing, and colonic irrigation), we have provided an anti-yeast diet.

We have also covered research on yeast infections which are known to play a negative role in orthodox treatments for cancers such as leukaemia and multiple myeloma where all the defence white cells are killed off and the patient has extensive treatment with antibiotics to prevent infection.

There can be little doubt that yeast and candida infection can be a cause for ill health, and is known to be a complication in some cancers.

We also note comment in the American medical magazine Contemporary Oncology, 1993, which contained the following quote:

´Cancer patients having chemotherapy did not succumb to the cancer but to an infestation of candida albicans.

To repeat: At CANCERactive, we are always extremely wary of people who talk about one single cause for cancer; and one single cure. We believe it unlikely that there will ever be a single cure for all cancer. Not Herceptin, Glivac, not B-17 or sodium bicarbonate.

There is little doubt that acid bodies make you unhealthy and can cause cancer. Sodium bicarbonate may help (along with a plant based diet) to alkalyse the body.Certainly the researchers found that this seemed to stop new metastases.

We are well aware of the detrimental effects of candida. 

But to say ALL cancer is candida, and that ALL cancer can be treated using a single compound like sodium bicarbonate stretches the bounds of credibility for us.

Research on sodium bicarbonate treatment from US Cancer Centers

Research published online (March 10th 2009) in Pubmed (19276390 - Cancer Res 2009; 69 (6); 2260-8) from Arizona Cancer Center (University of Arizona); the Department of Pharmacology, Wayne State University, Detroit and the H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center Florida seems pretty convincing. It is entitled

´Bicarbonate increases Tumor pH and inhibits spontaneous metastases.´

The researchers start by commenting on the acid drivers of tumours, saying that the internal pH of solid tumours is acidic due largely to glucose metabolism. The external surrounds are also acidic, and this seems to encourage metastases. The researchers comment that the pH inside a tumour can be 6, whereas a healthy body should be 7.2 to 7.5. Oral ingestion of sodium bicarbonate reduced the formation of new metastases in breast cancer models in mice. The equivalent human consumption would be 12 gms of sodium bicarbonate a day. It reduced metastases to the lungs and intestines. No lymph node infection occurred.

When using injections directly into the tumours, the tumours regressed. 

The research stated that the treatment also worked with prostate cancer, but not with melanoma. The researchers now have a grant to conduct clinical trials.

No mention of candida albicans

Simoncini quoted the above research. However ... the research at no point mentioned candida albicans or yeasts - it talked about the alkalysing effects of sodium bicarbonate stopping or interfering with the acid processes of cancer.

The theory and use of Sodium Bicarbonate

Dr Tulio Simoncini notes that Sodium Bicarbonate has been used for years. It is, of course, basic baking soda, and has been used as a simple solution for indigestion. It produces an alkalising effect in the body, and seems to be perfectly safe a dilutions of 5 per cent.

Simoncini argues that there are vast numbers of fungi, but few mycetes are pathogenic to humans. He notes that mycosis is typically divided into external (for example in the hair and nails) and deep (where the fungi can attack the lungs, bones etc)

Out of all the possible forms, he believes the one responsible for cancer is Candida. Systemic candiosis starting in the gut, progressively moves through the blood system and then penetrates certain tissues.

Simoncini argues that Sodium Bicarbonate is extremely diffusible throughout the body. And that it changes the pH and then the structure of a fungus so fast that the fungus has no time to adapt (as it can do to drugs). The treatment is thus intense but only using a 5 per cent solution taken continuously for 8 day cycles.

He also clarifies that the dose used is indeed used for a number of other diseases as orthodox treatment (for example, in pharmacological toxicosis, and hepatopathy).

Dr Tullio Simoncini - Cancer Is A Fungus - Bicarbonate Of Soda Treatment

How to treat cancer - Cancer is Fungus - Dr Tullio Simoncini

Dr. Simoncini, an oncologist in Rome, Italy has pioneered sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) therapy as a means to treat cancer. The fundamental theory behind this treatment lies in the fact that, despite a number of variable factors, the formation and spreading of tumors is simply the result of the presence of a fungus.

Sodium bicarbonate, unlike other anti-fungal remedies to which the fungus can become immune, is extremely diffusible and retains its ability to penetrate the tumor, due to the speed at which the sodium bicarbonate disintegrates the tumor. This speed makes fungi's adaptability impossible, rendering it defenseless.

The sodium bicarbonate solution is administered directly on the tumor, if possible. Otherwise, it can be administered by selective arteriography, which basically means selecting specific arteries through which the solution is administered, which subsequently dissolves the tumor.

Selective arteriography represents a very powerful anti-fungal weapon that is painless, leaves no after effects, and has very low risks. It is possible to reach almost all organs with a sodium bicarbonate solution, resulting in treatment that is harmless, fast, and effective.
