We are going to talk about the irony of medical cancer “treatments”, and I use the word “treatment” very loosely…

If you are diagnosed with cancer, you are usually given one or more of the usual medical options for your “treatment”:

1. Chemotherapy, or chemical “therapy”, or in other words, doses of extremely toxic chemicals to try and slow down or kill the cancer cells. Unfortunately, it kills a lot of healthy cells and causes a lot of toxicity to all body organs, including to your immune system
2. Radiotherapy, or radiation “therapy”, or in other words, doses of radiation aimed at the cancer/tumour to try and kill the cancer cells. But also causes collateral damage to other cells and organs which surround or are close to the tumour too
3. Immunotherapy, or immune “therapy”, which is ironic really, in that you are typically initially given toxic chemotherapy medications to reduce (ie, to “wipe out”) your immune system’s white blood cells, then given new medications to “restart” your immune system to help it find the cancer cells again.

The irony is that all of these cancer “treatment” options can reduce or even destroy your immune system function, when your immune system is the MAIN thing which can really prevent cancer development and progression, or to kill the cancer cells!

Your immune system has several types of white blood cells, especially types of lymphocytes called cytotoxic T-cells and Natural Killer (NK) cells, whose purpose in life is to find damaged cells and cancer cells, and to kill them!

This shows the importance of improving the function of your immune system, and your white blood cells! Anything which affects your immune system function will increase the risks of cancer development and progression. And this includes the so-called cancer “treatments”. Or if you have cancer, it’s always a sign that your immune system hasn’t been working well to find and destroy the damaged cancer cells. That’s why people with cancer need more support to improve their immune system function.

There are many things which can affect the production of the white blood cells, so these causes and factors need to be found and then treated in each person, to improve your immune system function. This can then help to prevent cancer and/or treat and reverse cancer.

But all the medical “treatments” reduce your immune system function…

The other related issue with cancer is the importance of finding and treating all the root causes of cancer in each person. This is what I do for each person I see with cancer. But the medical approach to cancer is just to “treat” the symptom, which is the cancer itself, using chemotherapy, radiation and surgery. Never do doctors or oncologists ask “why?” or look into what CAUSED the cancer. If you only look at “treating” the cancer itself, especially with things which reduce immune system function, you can almost guarantee that the cancer will come back. If it doesn’t come back in the same organ or tissue, it can come back elsewhere in the body due to reduced immune function, toxicity from the chemotherapy and radiation, and from not actually addressing the root causes of it.

Hence the importance of finding and treating all the root causes of cancer and low immune system function in each person. There are many known root causes and factors for cancer development and progression, which need to be identified in each person, for a true holistic and personalised treatment approach. This can give quick symptom relief as well as long-term resolution, and long-term prevention too!

Melatonin isn't just your sleep hormone.

It is a major antioxidant and offers many benefits to the prevention and development of cancers.

Hence the importance of fixing any issues you have with sleep as part of your prevention of cancer, or cancer treatment plan.

See the full details in the linked article below.

So many patients I see have sleep problems, from difficulty getting to sleep (ie, sleep onset), restless sleep, interrupted sleep, and waking up tired for the next day. Like most things, taking medications or even supplements doesn’t fix the root causes or factors which are contributing to the sleep issues in each person. And different people can have different causes and factors to their sleep issues, so a different treatment recommendation is needed.

Poor sleep quality or quantity can lead to the following health issues:
1. Low energy and fatigue
2. Poor concentration and memory
3. Mood and behaviour changes, and worse mental health symptoms
4. Low immune function
5. Poor healing and tissue repair
6. Weight gain
7. Increased inflammation
8. Changes to many metabolic hormones including increased cortisol (stress hormone), increased ghrelin (hunger hormone), decreased insulin sensitivity, decreased leptin (satiety hormone), reduced testosterone and muscle protein production
9. Increased risks of cancers, partly due to the reduced immune system function and the other effects listed here (Zamfir Chiru, Popescu & Gheorghe, 2014)
10. And more!

There are so many factors which can cause sleep issues, that I could write a book on the topic! So I won’t go into everything here! One of the main factors or things we need for optimal sleep is for our bodies to make Melatonin, which is our “sleep hormone”.

The main thing we need to make Melatonin is sun exposure! We don’t make Melatonin from being indoors, but only from being outside! We don’t have to physically be in the sun and have sun on our skin to make Melatonin, like we do to make vitamin D, but from sun exposure through your EYES! Hence we can make Melatonin from being undercover or in the shade, or even if there’s a rainy or overcast day. The more time you spend outside during the day, the more Melatonin you make.

Melatonin is made in your pineal gland during the day from sun exposure through the eyes. Melatonin is stored in this the pineal gland until the sun goes down and again your eyes are used as sensors to detect the fading light, and your eyes signal the pineal gland to start secreting the Melatonin to help tell your body it’s soon time to sleep, and keep you asleep through the night.

However there are a number of factors which can interfere with Melatonin production including:
1. Wearing of sunglasses – this can block sun exposure into the eyes and reduce Melatonin production
2. Shift work – people doing shift work don’t get enough time outside during the day
3. Nutrient deficiencies can affect the production of Melatonin, even if you get enough sun exposure
4. Thyroid function, liver function, stomach function – all are needed to be functioning well for a number of metabolic functions in order to produce Melatonin.

Hence Melatonin production and sleep issues are a WHOLE BODY issue, and cannot be fixed from taking medications or supplements alone, including from taking Melatonin supplements.

In my experience, I find that 95% of the time that people try to improve their sleep with taking Melatonin supplements, it doesn’t work. Because the root causes of the sleep issues are not being addressed. This shows the importance of finding and fixing the root causes of sleep issues, and not just trying to address the symptom of poor sleep!

Melatonin as a natural hormone or in a supplement isn’t actually a sedative and doesn’t make you tired or sleep, or bring on sleep! It’s a circadian rhythm (day/night) regulator for your body, to tell your body WHEN to sleep.

Melatonin isn’t only just your sleep hormone, but it is also a major antioxidant in your body to reduce oxidative damage! As such, it reduces oxidative damage to cells and organs, reduces damage to immune system cells, reduces inflammation, and other benefits, all of which can reduce the risks of cancer development. A number of published studies do show many people with cancers have low melatonin levels (Zamfir Chiru, Popescu & Gheorghe, 2014).

If you have troubles with sleep, such as difficulty getting to sleep, interrupted or restless sleep, poor quality sleep or if you do shift work, or if you have any health issues alongside sleep difficulties such as weight gain, low energy or fatigue, mental health issues, or even cancers, then you need to fix your sleep issues for your long-term health. I can help find all the root causes and factors which can be affecting your sleep as well as other related health conditions and symptoms!

Stay healthy!

The rates of cancer diagnosis have hugely increased in the last 5 years, due to one major reason.

What do you think that reason is?

In the last couple of years I’ve seen so many new and sudden cancers, recurrent cancers, aggressive cancers, younger people with cancers, turbo cancers, or initial cancer diagnosis at stage 4 and/or with metastasis (spread to other organs) already, which are more usually seen in more advanced cancers.

Q: So what has changed?

A: The number of people who got the COVID “treatment” since 2021, and the number of them that people got, or were mandated to get. And many studies confirm this.

An Italian study followed 300,000 people for 30 months from 2021 and compared those people who didn’t take the COVID injections with those who did, for cancer admissions, as well as for other chronic health issues. For most types of cancers, the study found that those with even just one of the COVID injections had 200% the incidences of cancer compared to those who didn’t get the injection (Acuti Martellucci et. al., 2025). For people who had 3 or more of the COVID injections, there were up to 250-300% increases in the incidences of cancer, and even 500% more for prostate cancer, compared to those who didn’t get the injections. The study found similar increases in other chronic issues in those who took the injections, for incidences of high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, chronic lung disease and kidney disease too.

A study from Korea which followed 8 million people for 12 months, again looking at the rates of various cancers in those who didn’t take the COVID injections vs those who did (Kim et. al., 2025). This research confirmed the findings of the Italian study, that many cancer rates had significantly increased in 12 months after having a COVID injection, especially for cancers of the thyroid, stomach, colon and re**um, lung, breast and prostate.

These are not the only studies to find such large increases in cancers in people who took the COVID injections.

There are a number of ways that the COVID injections can cause increased rates of cancer (Valdes Angues & Perea Bustos, 2023, Seneff et. al, 2022), including:

1. Causing high and chronic inflammation from the lipid nanoparticles in the mRNA injections or from the spike proteins, which affects many body functions and reduces immune system function
2. Causing oxidative damage to different organs and cells, including the heart, thyroid, liver, kidneys, reproductive organs and brain, potentially leading to cancer in these organs
3. The spike proteins target the ACE-2 receptors on the cell walls of major organs and tissues, to get into cells and cause damage
4. Causing oxidative damage to your white blood cells – your immune system cells, to reduce their number, and distract them from their normal function of finding and killing cancer cells
5. Specifically causing lymphopenia (low numbers of lymphocytes, the type of immune system white blood cells which are your anti-cancer immune cells)
6. Inhibiting the normal cancer-suppressing genes that we have, including p53, BRCA and others which can prevent cancers, or keep cancer in check
7. Promoting activation of cancer cells through a number of different genetic mechanisms
8. DNA contamination in the injections, including the SV-40 cancer-promoting proteins
9. The COVID injections being shown in studies to change cellular DNA via reverse transcription, which damages DNA or causes mutations, which can lead to cancer development
10. Impairing other immune system functions, including interferon signalling, which can reduce normal cancer surveillance functions of the immune system
11. The constant and high production of the spike proteins from the injections isn’t able to be stopped or cleared naturally by the body, so studies have shown that people are still producing the spike proteins 3.5 years after their last injection. And the damage is higher with each injection you get.

In people with cancer and who had the COVID injections, any one of these factors can lead to cancer, but the big problem is that all of these factors together is devastating to your body, your health and your immune system function.

This is also why people who had previously had cancer or their cancer was in remission, their cancer returned or suddenly got aggressive and accelerated again. One study found up to 98% of cancers being reported as a side effect of all v@ccines which were reported to the US’s VAERS database (of v@ccine side effects) were from the COVID injections in just 2021 alone (Seneff et. al., 2022). In some cases of cancers reported in the VAERS database, 100% were from the COVID injections – bladder cancer, pancreatic cancer and ovarian cancer.

What can you do to either reduce your risks of cancer occurring, recurring, or to help treat an existing cancer which may be in part the result of the COVID injections?

All the root causes of cancer in each person need to be identified and treated or removed, and this includes the damage that the COVID injections are doing. The root causes and factors will be different in each person. Luckily there are things which can help with this! And this is what I can do to help!

A very recent study was published in the Nature journal on the causes of cancer, especially the “modifiable” causes of cancer, being those you have control over or can change. This new study (Fink et al, 2026) suggests that while cancers are a leading cause of mortality and burden on personal and national health budgets, there are 30 modifiable factors which can greatly prevent or reduce the risks of cancer. As such, up to 30% of cancers in women, and over 57% of cancers in men are preventable!

Some of the modifiable factors to prevent cancer include smoking, alcohol intake, having a high body mass index (ie, being overweight), low physical activity, UV radiation, infections, exposure to various toxicities, and more.

But the study didn’t even look at foods or diets that people eat, of nutrient deficiencies or excesses as modifiable risk factors! So the cancer prevention rates are actually very much higher than stated above!

One study in the past, entitled “Cancer is a preventable disease that requires major lifestyle changes” (Anand et. al, 2008) looked at the cancer prevention rates in a different way, such as the percentage of cancers which may have a genetic cause compared to non-genetic or environmental and lifestyle (ie, modifiable) causes. This study showed that the largest modifiable factors for cancer development were your diet (30-35%), smoking (25-30%), infections (15-20%), and obesity (10-20%), but genetics only contributes a 5-10% risk to cancer development. Therefore 90-95% of cancers are driven by your modifiable choices! Hence in reality, 90-95% of cancers are preventable!

This information is important for prevention of cancers, but also in the treatment of cancers too!

When has a doctor or oncologist ever mentioned how you can reduce your risks of cancer, or improve your chances of recovery from cancer, by recommending dietary and lifestyle improvements which make up 95% of the causes (and treatments!) for cancer?! You can have all the surgeries, chemotherapy and radiation treatments that doctors recommend, but if you don’t make environmental changes to your diet and lifestyle, you can pretty much guarantee that the cancer will come back. Nobody wants that.

I have detailed consultations with cancer patients, especially in the initial consultation, to ask a lot of questions to find all the root causes and factors for the cancer development and progression in each person. Then I recommend specific and personalised dietary, lifestyle, and other treatment recommendations. This gives the best possible outcomes for your cancer treatment.

Today (February 4th) is World Cancer Day, to raise awareness of many different types of cancers, which affects most of us in some way directly or indirectly, and is the cause of death of one in two men and one in three women. These are incredible statistics, but not in a good way.

If you know me or have read some of my articles here, you may know that the topic of cancer comes up a lot, because it has been my main area of interest in natural health treatments for many years.

I was initially drawn to natural cancer treatments because the general public believe that this is the biggest and baddest of health problems (yes, even more than covid!), because a diagnosis of "cancer" fills people with such dread and fear, that it reminds people that we really are mortal. We shouldn't fear cancer at all, but welcome it as it is your body giving you warnings and telling you that it is not liking what you are doing to it. It may take some time to change this perception of cancer, but we can start now.

My fears of cancer disappeared when I started reading cancer research over 15 years ago, when I found that your body's white blood cells, in particular the Cytotoxic CD4+ T-cells and NK (Natural Killer) cells, have a primary task every day in our bodies to find and destroy virus-infected AND cancer cells! Hence it is your own immune systems that CAN and DOES fight cancer every day!

I have linked a short video showing this - your immune system cells attacking cancer cells and destroying them! Watch this video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ntk8XsxVDi0

This information and this video highlights the importance of your immune system for the prevention and treatment of cancer! Just as a strong and healthy immune system is needed for the prevention of infections, such as the current coronavirus circus, your immune system can prevent and fight cancer too!

Chemotherapy, radiotherapy and surgery are NOT the only options for cancer treatment! These actually don't help you much at all, because both chemotherapy and radiotherapy (ie, chemical therapy and radiation therapy, respectively) actually CAUSE more cancer by poisoning the body and destroying the immune system - the main part of your body's defence against cancer! It just doesn't make sense to do this. The medical system also does not offer any advice for prevention of cancer, which I believe is much more important!

I still read a lot of cancer research, and I put this knowledge into practice with my clients. There is no one cure for cancer (and never will be using the medical system model) as treatment requires a personalised and holistic (whole body) approach using a combination of correct nutrition and avoiding some specific foods, supplementation, stress relief and management, detoxification, mindset, lifestyle, exercise and other treatments. Each person's causes for their cancer will be different to the next person, hence why any cancer treatment MUST be a personalised one based on finding all the root causes of each person's cancer - which is not done in the medical system.

If your immune system is not strong, or you get frequent infections or illnesses, or if there is a family history of cancer or autoimmune conditions, preventative investigations can be done to reduce your risks. This is where I can help - this is what I do!

In this month of January, being Cervical Cancer Awareness Month, one of the recommended “treatments” for prevention of cervical cancer is the HPV v@ccine, which includes the Gardasil v@ccine. But is this alleged treatment or prevention actually beneficial in reducing the incidence of cervical cancer, or worth being forced on millions of teenagers every year, and what are the risks and dangers of this?

I’ve spent a LONG time researching the Gardasil v@ccines and cervical cancer, and I have published a detailed and fully referenced article in the attached link on my website. You can also download the PDF document of the article to save and share.

In short, I found from research and in clinical practice, the following:
1. The rates of cervical cancer were reducing for many years before the Gardasil v@ccine was first introduced in 2007
2. Rates of cervical cancer started increasing every year since Gardasil was introduced
3. Rates of cervical cancer increased by over 90% in some age groups after the Gardasil vaccine was introduced
4. There are over 100 HPV viruses which can allegedly cause ge***al warts or cervical cancer, but the Gardasil vaccine only contains antigens for 4 or 9 of them, so the potential coverage for prevention is pretty low
5. One of the main causes of serious side effects and chronic health issues after the Gardasil v@ccine is due to it containing aluminium as an adjuvant, to stimulate the immune system response
6. Aluminium is a neurotoxic heavy metal, and can damage your brain, nerves and nervous system function. The newer Gardasil 9 v@ccine (with 9 HPV antigens) has twice as much aluminium than the original Gardasil 4, making it potentially twice as dangerous
7. Aluminium particularly damages the autonomic nerves, which controls your heart and circulation, breathing, digestive system, and more. This is why so many people who have this v@ccine have side effects and symptoms of digestive issues such as constipation and nausea, and/or heart issues such as dizziness, fainting, light-headedness, tachycardia (racing heart), blood pressure issues, and more issues
8. The heart and circulation side effects of the Gardasil v@ccine can be diagnosed as some of the Dysautonomia conditions such as POTS (Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome), Orthostatic Hypotension, Orthostatic Hypertension, or others.

There are many more issues with the Gardasil v@ccine and what you are being told (and not told) about cervical cancer. See my full article in detail in the comments.

If you have had the Gardasil v@ccine and had long-term health problems since, I have successfully reversed its side effects, including the Dysautonomia/POTS symptoms and other symptoms, and the high aluminium levels too.

All parents of children and teenagers should read the linked article and be aware of the possible risks and potential chronic health issues from this unnecessary v@ccine. Unnecessary as I have explained in previous articles, that the HPV virus isn’t the only cause for cervical cancer, and to consider avoiding this one.

Stay healthy!

January is cervical cancer awareness month, to raise awareness and funding for cervical cancer charities and research (WHO, 2024).
There have been a number of major changes to screening for cervical cancer in recent years which will make you wonder why they were made as they actually increase the risks of cervical cancer, and will make you wonder why anyone would give any donations or support to so-called cancer charities.

The issues I have with the various changes to cervical cancer are listed below:

Change to Pap smears being replaced with CST testing:

In 2017, the Qld Cancer Council announced that the National Cervical Screening Program of pap smears for women every 2 years was replaced by the new Cervical Screening Test (CST) (Cancer Council, 2017). In recent times since 2022, women can still get the CST test done via their GP or also now from a home testing kit. This article will explain why the CST test isn’t as good as the pap smear tests, and why the home test kit is next to useless and can actually be very dangerous for women.

The previous pap smear tests checked for abnormal cervical cells by a trained pathologist. But the CST will only check for the HPV (Human Papilloma Virus), which is just one alleged cause of cervical cancer. The HPV testing in the CST is only done via computer. And the CST will only be required every 5 years instead of 2 years for the pap smear test.

The CST will still require the same uncomfortable procedure to obtain cervical cells as the pap smear, just less frequently. Only if the HPV virus is found will someone actually visually check your pap smear for abnormal cells.

The issues here are several:
- The CST test is only looking for ONE possible causative factor of cervical cancer, being the HPV
- The CST ignores all other possible causes of cervical cancer, so if you don’t have HPV, the cervical cancer will not get picked up until it becomes much more developed and serious and presents with serious symptoms.

Increased duration for recommended testing:

The less frequent testing (being a money saving measure, in my opinion), from every 2 years for a pap smear to 5 years now, is a major concern that will increase the risks of increased development and progression of cervical cancer.

I’ve had female patients who have gone from a negative test to CIN 2 or 3 cervical cancer within the 2-year repeated tests. But now it’s a 5 year duration in retesting...

If you are female and have a family history of female hormone or s*x organ related cancers, or who have had cervical cancer in the past, you can and should retest much more regularly than 5 years apart. Even if there is no family history of cervical cancer but for ongoing health and prevention, you can and should test more frequently than these organisations say.

Home testing for cervical cancer:

Since 2022 the at-home testing kits for cervical cancer have been available (Cancer Council, 2024), but as you can see from the infographic of this article, the swab doesn’t even get close to the cervix for obtaining any worthwhile cervical cells (or cancer cells) to actually test. It’s just a vaginal test and not a cervical cancer test. It’s next to useless. Or worse, it can be very dangerous (and even deadly) if a woman actually has unknown cervical cancer, and tests her vaginal cells instead of the cervix, and the cancer remains unknown after the at-home test kit. Then because of the cost-cutting measures of the Cancer Council and government health budgets, the woman waits another 5 years to test again – so the cervical cancer can develop and progress much further and become far more serious, or deadly.

Women should continue to see their GP or Gynaecologist for a proper and accurately taken cervical swab, as well as other testing I suggest here.

No other testing recommended for cervical cancer:

Having the HPV virus and testing positive for this in the CST test, isn’t the only cause or factor for the development and progression of cervical cancer.

Research suggests that an HPV infection alone is NOT sufficient to cause cervical cancer! (Spurgeon et. Al., 2017). Cervical cancer, and other reproductive cancers in women, are related to female hormones and often an imbalance between the hormones oestrogen and progesterone. The same research also suggests that an immune system dysfunction and chronic inflammation are also equal causative factors in the development and progression of cervical cancer. This study says these other factors are mandatory for the development of cervical cancer. So pap smears or the new CST are simply not good enough screening tests for this type of cancer.

As a better preventative for cervical cancer, or other female cancers, or in fact ANY cancer, you can (and SHOULD) get your immune system function checked, inflammation levels tested, and female hormone levels tested regularly for a much better picture for the prevention of ALL female reproductive cancers, and for your overall health.

Summary:

I believe all of these changes to cervical cancer screening will in fact put more women at risk of cervical cancer, and developing more severe cancer due to less frequent testing, and will likely kill far more women as a result. More regular, more accurate, and more holistic testing is needed for the prevention of cervical cancer.

More women need to be informed of these changes to cervical cancer screening and the likely increased risks to cervical cancer. The more women are aware of these issues, and that additional testing is needed too, the less cervical cancer we may see due to prevention, or at least to catch it earlier. Please share to your female friends and groups to let them know!

Stay healthy!
