Information about oleander, S/OPC and the S/OPC suggested protocol

Bret -

While it is true that cardiac glycosides such as digoxin/digatalis have had some success against cancer and oleandrin does cross assay with digoxin/digitalis, the oleandrin and other cardiac glycosides in an aqueous extract of oleander are only a part of the story - a point that was vividly and tragically brought home when an ethanolic extract of oleander from Russia was used by a scam company and found to be much less effective due to the loss of polar compounds, such as long-chaing polysacharrides, which precipitate out during that extraction method.

(If you are interested in what happened - and it is the stuff of Oprah or a book or movie - see: http://www.tbyil.com/mystory.htm That was a wild and wooly ride, my friend!)

As you will see from reading my articles, oleander contains a very large number of cancer fighting and immune boosting compounds (including the long chain polysacharrides, quercitin, ursolic acid and much more) - and no one really knows exactly how they work together synergistically, just that they do. 

For a 200 pound man, depending upon the stage and agressiveness and type of cancer, anywhere from one to three bottles of OPC per month would be used.  It costs $45 for the capsule version and $60 for the extract including shipping worldwide (the difference in cost is due to the extra weight of the liquid version - both are supposed to be equally effective).

Here is some further information from Marc Swaneoel, the natuopathic PhD who developed Sutherlandia OPC:

Suggested Protocol for Sutherlandia OPC from Marc Swanepoel

To maximize the effectiveness of the S/OPC I also suggest the protocol below (for cancer, HIV/AIDS, Hep C, Lupus, ALS and neurological problems). The 5 most important items are (a) S/OPC (b) NAC (c) Curcumin (d) liver cleanse and (e) try to cut out animal proteins.

Protocol for cancer

(1) Take the Sutherlandia OPC regularly.

(2) Cut out ALL animal proteins (meat, milk, eggs, yoghurt, fish) as well as sugar. If you are worried that you won't get enough protein, then take un-denatured whey protein.

(3) Get rid of stressful situations in your life and put past traumas behind you otherwise they will surely kill you.

(4) Go to bed by 10:30 pm

(5) Drink enough water (6 - 8 glasses per day).

(6) Eat only starches, vegetables (excluding potatoes) and fruit. Carrot juice is a good example.

(7) Get at least half an hour of direct sun per day.

(8) Do a liver cleanse every 4 weeks until you don't pass any gallstones.

(9) Take 200 micrograms Selenium per day with your food.

(10) Take Inositol/IP6  as suggested in Tony Isaac's Anti-cancer protocol     http://www.tbyil.com/anticancer.htm )

(11) Add curcumin as a supplement (as per the work of Dr H Kremer).

(12) For very advanced cases of anti-fungal infection, take a prescription medicine like Nystatin or Diflucan for 2 weeks. For those who do not want to take prescription medication, take an anti-fungal like Colloidal Silver or olive leaf extract on a daily basis.

(13) Take 1 teaspoonful of Black Seed Oil (Nigella Sativa) 3 times per day after meals.

(14) Take 2 x 600mg Time Release capsules of N-Acetyl Cysteine (NAC) with fruit juice three times per day on an empty stomach (to help the body synthesize Glutathione). If wasting (weight loss) is already advanced, these amounts can be doubled. There are reports that high dosages of NAC can lead to the loss of Zinc, Copper and other trace minerals and it may be advisable to take a trace mineral supplement to prevent this possibility.

(7) Take 600mg Alpha Lipoic acid  (ALA) per day with your food (to help increase the amount of Glutathione in the body). There are reports that high dosages of NAC can lead to the loss of Zinc, Copper and other trace minerals and it may be advisable to take a trace mineral supplement to prevent this possibility.

(11) Take 1000mg Acetyl L Carnitine (ALC) per day on an empty stomach.

(12) Eat fresh vegetables (spinach, carrots, broccoli, brown rice, Brussel sprouts  and legumes) every day and try to cut back on all animal proteins (meat, milk, eggs, cheese). If you are worried that you won't get enough protein, then take un-denatured whey protein.

Suggested Dosages

Sutherlandia OPC (500ml Liquid)

Start off by taking 5ml (1 teaspoon) once per day during mealtime for 2 days.

Increase dosage to 5 ml twice per day with meals for a further 2 days.

Increase dosage to 5ml three times per day with meals for 1 month.

If no improvement, increase dosage to 10ml three times per day for 2 months.

If still no response, the dosage can be increased to 45ml per day (3 x 15ml)

Sutherlandia OPC ( 60 Capsules)

Start off by taking 1 capsule with breakfast for 2 days.

Increase dosage to 1 capsule twice per day (2 caps total) with breakfast and lunch for a further 2 days.

For more serious ailments increase dosage to 2 capsules twice per day (4 caps total) with breakfast and lunch for 1 month.

If no improvement, increase dosage to 3 capsules twice per day (6 caps total) with breakfast and lunch for 2 months.

It is also advisable to do the following 5-day liver cleanse.

5-day liver cleanse.

It is best to have day 4 on a Saturday or at a time when you are staying at home.

Day 1: Drink 1 liter of apple juice during the day. Eat as normal otherwise.

Day 2: Drink another liter of apple juice. Eat normally

Day 3: Drink a 3rd liter of apple juice. Eat normally

Day 4: Do not take any sold food after lunch time

6pm - Take one level tablespoon of Epsom salt in a glass of water

8pm - Take another tablespoon of Epsom salt in a glass of water. You may find

that you already have to take a trip to the toilet before the 8pm Epsom salt.

10pm - Mix one half glass of olive oil and three quarter glass of freshly squeezed

grape fruit juice by shaking it very well in a jar with a lid so that it mixes well and immediately get into bed after drinking the mixture. You will probably make more than one trip to the toilet during the night as well as during the next day.

Day 5: 6am: Take another tablespoon of Epsom salt in a glass of water

            8am: Take one final tablespoon of Epsom salt in a glass of water.

You will find that many gallstones from the liver will be passed and one will notice them in the toilet. They will vary in size from about pin head size to 10mm. Gallstones in the liver are a major cause of many health problems.

The above liver cleanse can  be repeated every month until one finds that for two months in succession no more gallstones are passed. The liver will then be clean.

(You can read about this in much more detail in Andreas Moritz's book ' "The liver and gallbladder miracle cleanse" which you can download from his site at www.ener-chi.com).

S/OPC results to be expected

The normal situation is the following (For stages I – III. Stage IV can take twice to three times as long) :

(a) The rate of growth of the tumor/s slows down (after 3 - 6 weeks)

(b) The cancer stabilizes (after 6  - 10 weeks)

(c) The tumor starts to reduce in size (10 - 16 weeks)

Here it must be noted that sometimes there is only a slow decrease in size due to the fact that the bulk of the cells inside the tumor may be normal cells. So, even if al the tumor cells die, then the remainder of the normal cells will retain their size. The tumor/s may then become hard (encrusted) and may take a long time, even years to be re-absorbed by the body.

(d) Patient in remission (8 - 12 months)

All the above should take place PROVIDED one follows the suggested protocol especially the S/OPC, the NAC, the Curcumin and the restriction of animal proteins.

Remember, it is the RATE OF GROWTH that will initially slow down even if there is still some growth.
