Individualized Nutritional Protocols

The Treatment Method

Although our published research deals with pancreatic cancer, in our office we treat patients with all types of cancers.  We also treat patients with a variety of other problems, ranging from chronic fatigue syndrome to multiple sclerosis.  Each treatment protocol is individualized for each patient, regardless of the underlying problem.

The regimen can be broken down into the following basic components: diet, supplements (with proteolytic enzymes for cancer patients) and detoxification routines.

Diet: The prescribed diets are quite variable, and can range from nearly vegetarian to diets requiring red meat 2-3 times a day. Each patient receives individualized dietary recommendations. All the diets, however, require that the patient consume primarily organic foods, and avoid synthetic and refined foods such as white flour and white sugar.  (A more detailed explanation of the rationale behind the diets can be found in the interview from Clinical Pearls News).

Supplements: Like the diets, the supplement protocols are individualized for each patient, depending on their health problems and biochemical makeup. The prescribed supplements include a variety of vitamins, minerals, trace elements, anti-oxidants, animal glandular concentrates and other food concentrates.

Proteolytic Enzymes (For Cancer Patients):  The main anti-cancer supplements are specially manufactured proteolytic enzymes made from pig pancreas. You can read more about the History of Enzyme Therapy elsewhere on our website. Patients on the Gonzalez regimen take up to 45 grams of proteolytic enzymes a day, taken orally and spread throughout the day.

The proteolytic enzymes we use were developed by us specifically for use in this program and are not commercially available in pharmacies, health food stores, on the Internet, or through multi-level health promotion plans.

Overall, cancer patients will consume 130-175 capsules a day, including nutrients as well as enzymes. Non-cancer patients might consume in the range of 80-100 capsules a day, the exact number depending on their health status and medical problems.

Detoxification:  On this therapy, patients - whatever their underlying problem - routinely develop a variety of symptoms, most commonly described as "flu-like," such as low grade fevers, muscle aches and pains, even rashes. We hypothesize these symptoms result from the body's repair processes which release all manner of waste material. "Detoxification " refers to procedures such as the coffee enema, which are believed to enhance liver function and in turn, the processing and excretion of metabolic wastes. The coffee enemas are done twice daily, and patients most commonly report symptomatic relief.

Our patients must comply with all three areas of the treatment for the greatest chance of success.
