All those "blod cancers" - lymphomas and mielomas are actually problems with microbes, except leukemia, which is a psychosomatic disease, in most cases a reaction to noise. Besides Lugol you can also try garlic, alicin tablets and some good probiotic - Kefir, lactobacilus bulgalicus etc. Nutriotion change and healthy life is a must when someone suffers from a serious disease. You may consult Dr Richard Schultze, his videos and books for further help about nutrition. Should God help and lead you.
