That is an excellent question - one does diagnostic tests which look for specific molecules. Depending on the molecule that shows up, one can then go through a list of substances which work to address the production of the molecule. Azole compounds are fantastic for going after helminths (various types of parasites including "flukes").Posted by Denise/Dizi (here)
How would you know what pathogen you are treating? I am just curious. Do they tell people any more than "It's breast cancer.. it's this, it's that?Posted by Bob (here)
Me - I would take the fastest most effective route that got rid of the pathogen FAST.
If one doesn't deal with it specifically and FAST the pathogen can and usually will mutate to be un-treatable.
Low doses of "natural" or low doses of allopathic substances can give a pathogen the perfect opportunity to become STRONGER and thusly un-treatable.. Don't let invading organisms be they fungus, bacterial, worms or amoeba, or viral or now prions take hold by just tickling them hoping that one's immune system will deal with it if "boosted naturally".. I would consider such ticking things being used to "treat" issues a measure leaning towards biological disaster.. -- that's just me, others would do what they want of course
There is a school of thought that says (Hulda Clark) cancers are derived from parasite exposure - (or infestation). A treatment that addresses parasites quickly and safely would logically be a good substance to test if the cancer tumor recedes when exposed to the azole for instance.
Opisthorchis viverrini and Clonorchis sinensis are liver flukes (a type of flatworm) that have been linked to increased risk of developing cancer of the bile ducts. (see https://www.cancer.org/cancer/cancer...parasites.html)
I've personally noted with certain azoles that virus and bacteria can be radically stopped from reproducing. Nitro-azoles have also been known as a magnificent alternative to antibiotics. These work extremely well agains anaerobic bacterial and parasitic infections. There is also a school of thought that if one can break the cycle of the "big 3", fungus, bacteria, and viral infection that cancers can be stopped quickly. Anti-fungals plus the nitro-azoles then coupled with acyclovir should be a very good universal "magic bullet"...These infections come from eating raw or undercooked freshwater fish. They occur mostly in East Asia and are rare in other parts of the world.
Schistosoma haematobium is a parasite found in the water of some countries in the Middle East, Africa, and Asia. Infection with this parasite (an illness called schistosomiasis) has been linked to bladder cancer. Possible links to other types of cancer are now being studied as well.
I personally would like to see more work with adding DCA (di-chloro-acetate) which is known to stop a lot of tumors from growing into the above mix. It is also hardly costly (pennies per dose)..
