Not just Holistic, but how to use E: All of the Above!

I made this blog because I did tons of research on success stories and research worldwide and used it on my dog with nasal cancer named Lucy. So, now my hobby is molecular biology. The treatment uses combination of health store supplements, some prescription meds, diet changes, and specific Ayurvedic and Chinese medicinal herbs. I just wanted her to have a better quality of life. I thought this combination of E: All the Above (except no radiation or chemo and surgery for this cancer was not an option) would help that for sure, but it actually put her bleeding nasal cancer in remission!
My approach to cancer is about treating the whole animals biologic system. But I do hate the word 'Holistic'. Sounds like hoo hoo. This is science based, research based data and results of using active herbal compounds that happen to be readily available and common. Some call it Nutriceuticals. Others may call it Orthomolecular cancer therapy. Or Cancer Immunotherapy.
I FEEL DIVERSITY IN TREATMENT IS KEY:
-Slow cancer cell reproduction
-Make cancer cells become easier targets for the immune system
-Kill the cancer cells
-Rid the cancer cells
-Remove the toxins it produces
- Stimulate and Modulate the immune system
-Control secondary symptoms like bleeding, infection, inflammation, mucous, appetite, or pain for a better feeling animal
-Working with your vet for exams and prescriptions that are sometimes needed when conditions are acute.
Just by using a multi-modal treatment approach that is as diverse in attack as possible. Both conventional and natural.
The body conditions that allowed it to develop in the first place must be corrected. If caught early enough, like with Lucy, this ongoing maintenance correctional treatment is all that was required at this point to achieve, so far, more than 10 TIMES the life expectancy given (more than 60 months) after diagnosis WITH remission. I did not use radiation or chemotherapy or surgery.
I hope this cancer research can help your dog as well.

My Lucy
In Loving Memory my Lucy December 2016
CURRENT STATUS - It was for more than 5 YEARS after Lucy was diagnosed by biopsy in March 2011 with nasal cancer that she lived. And she was in remission for 4 of 5 years using no radiation or chemo! Now multiply that by 7 to be 35 years extended!! She was 12.5 years old - equivalent to almost 90 human years old. She ended her watch December 1, 2016. I miss her so much.

Chinese anti cancer herbs dog cookie recipe




I found a cookie recipe for feeding these Stasis Breaker and Wei Qi Booster Chinese cancer herbs to them, and they like the cookies. I crumble the cookies in with the meal, with that much less dry dog food. But she seems to also like them by themselves. Here’s that recipe for anyone who so desires it if you cannot get them to eat the herbs in their regular food. Keep in mind that many vets recommend a high fat content when treating cancer, since cancer cells grow best with carbohydrates as fuel, but they don’t grow well at all with fatty foods. The peanut butter in the recipe is a high fat food -medium protein and low-med carb(don't know what to do about that carb and still have tastiness). Here’s the recipe:

Peanut Butter Meringue Cookies. Makes 16 cookies

Let 3 eggs warm to room temperature (for easy whipping)
 Separate the whites from yolks, the whites will be whipped. The yolks I save to give as a cooked treat.

In one bowl:
 Whip egg whites
 Add the meds in question into the whipped egg whites (In this recipe I add 2 days worth of the herbs. probably could add 3 days worth)

In another bowl:
 add 1/4 cup of molasses
 add 1/4 cup of hot water
 add 1 cup peanut butter
 whip all that

add the peanut butter stuff to the egg white stuff, and whip more

spoon a teaspoon full of the mix onto a cookie sheet as one cookie. I put 8 onto a cookie sheet at at time, making two batches.
 bake at 350 degrees for about 15 minutes.
 do the next batch.

They actually taste quite good. Just a faint taste of the herbs, which taste awful to me anyway. Mostly they taste like peanut butter. The meringue adds some substance to them and bring up the protein -so they bake well. It's still has reasonable protein and fat overall, so the sugar/carb isn't horrible. 
But again, this is just stuff to try if they simply won't eat the powder in their regular food.

Homemade Chicken Dog Treat Recipe


Homemade Chicken Dog Treats

NO MORE CHINA DOG TREATS. ANOTHER RECALL AGAIN.

Homemade Chicken Treats for My Dog

Need:

o   Chicken breasts
o   Costco: Kirkland, skinless, boneless, breast; 13 to 16 per bag (Consider: beef, liver, turkey)
o   Baking sheets or pans for baking and drying
o   Tin foil (optional)
o   Cutting surface and knife
o   Oven
o   Storage/freezer containers or bags
o   Space in freezer


1. Storage
o   Put market bag(s) of chicken in fridge (not freezer) overnight for next day cooking
o   Bag instructions state that cooking frozen is ok

2. Cooking
o   Pre-heat oven to 375
o   Chicken is placed uncovered on sheet (with tin foil is best for reusing sheets for drying)
o   No seasoning, no salt
o   Bake semi-unfrozen chicken at 375 for ~ 50 minutes
o   Bag instructions suggest less time, but looking for thorough cooking

3. ‘Chips’
o   Slice thin, 1/8 to 1/16”
o   Cut while still warm
o   Cut ‘medallions’ by cutting at angle rather than down, especially at thin end of breast. At ‘fat’ end, can be cut down.
o   Use flat of fork to hold chicken while cutting. Avoid poking holes in chicken with fork
o   Resist the staring dog

4. Drying
o   Spread chips on a baking sheet. Do not stack
o   Bake at about 200 degrees for 2+ hours. Wedge oven door open an inch or two while baking
- Length of time depends on thinness and other factors
- Flip the chips during cooking at about 1 ¼ hours, until crisp. Looking for leathery to crisp texture after cooled.
- The ‘white’ of the meat should be gone
o   As chips will be stored in the freezer, they do not have to be jerky
o   Continue to resist giving the dog all the chips now.

5. Storage
o   Store chips in plastic freezer bags in the freezer; not truly dried, must be frozen
o   Date the bags
o   Take one bag from freezer at a time and keep in fridge for current use

Are Dogs Carnivores or Omnivores and How does this effect Cancer Treatment

While it is true that wolves are predominantly carnivorous, they are omnivorous, opportunistic feeders. They eat what they can get, be it plant, bug, or animal. They are an ancient species that has developed a wide range of survival skills, this includes a variable diet.  Which would include hoofed animals, beaver, squirrel, rat, fish, bird, bugs, and yes berries and other fruits can all be found on the wolves dinner plate. So it is in their genes to be able to eat some of this non meat stuff ok. And maybe they find it nutritionally useful. And tasty...
Coyotes will eat voles, prairie dogs, eastern cottontails, ground squirrels and mice. They also eat small birds, snakes, lizards, deer, javelina(A kind of hog), cattle and small insects. Coyotes also eat some fruits, nuts, and vegetables during autumn and winter months.


Wolves and coyotes do enjoy berries, fruit drops, nuts, and other plants and all carnivores apparently eat grass at times (possibly for medicinal value, though scientists aren't sure). This doesn't mean that wolves or coyotes are "optimally" designed to eat plants as "healthy" staple foods. But they are eating them regardless for some reason.

What does this mean. Hmmm. Well, animals know what they want to eat or should eat at any given time. Unless starving and will eat just about anything. Since they do appear to eat a little fruit, berries, or grass, they must want it and can use it for nutrition. So, fresh real foods of mostly meat protein/fat and some veggies or a little fruit is probably what they do need optimally. And have done so for millenia, so they must be adapted genetically to that diet. So since these fruits, grasses, vegetables, and berries have high nutrition and health potential, it would be, well, healthy to give it to them. Seems like.  Kewl video huh.

Grain Free Dog Treat Biscuit Recipes

    Here are 2 very low grain usage and wheat free and gluten free dog treat recipe. High protein, medium fat.

    Gluten Free Dog Biscuit Recipe

      - 1 Lb ground meat ( lamb, beef, chicken, turkey ) Lamb and beef tend to be higher in fat. Chicken and turkey might be a better choice for an overweight dog.
      - 1 large sweet potato ( cooked and mashed ) 
      - 1 large egg - 1/4 tsp garlic powder ( not garlic salt )or one large clove pressed 
      - 5 tbsp. large flake rolled oats ( organic if possible ) or 4 tbsp. ground flax seed meal
      Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees. Combine all ingredients in a bowl, mixing up very well. Lightly grease a cookie sheet with olive oil. ( very slightly ) Dump ingredients on cookie sheet and spread evenly and flatly to the sides of pan. This should be about 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick. Bake for one hour at 350 degrees. Remove pan from oven and use your cookie cutter at this time, if you want. If you don't have a cookie cutter, just score the 'cookie dough 'with a knife or pizza cutter, into squares. Put back into the oven and bake for another hour at 250 degrees. This will dry these healthy dog treats out. Keep an eye on your oven. The time could be more or less, depending on how hot your oven runs. These dog treats should be fairly dry and a little crispy, but not burned.
