You are a moron....So they are curing cancer in Europe with Mistletoe? Do yourself a favor and actually read the JHU study to see exactly what they were studying.

By the way, approximately 1.2 million Europeans died from cancer in 2022...



"Most studies did not show any effect of mistletoe on survival. Especially high quality studies do not show any benefit

Conclusions: With respect to survival, a thorough review of the literature does not provide any indication to prescribe mistletoe to patients with cancer."

M Freuding et al. J Cancer Res Clin Oncol. 2019 Mar.

Where is your reading comprehension? Who said it cured cancer? I didn't moron. It is a treatment used in other parts of the world as a adjunct treatment and you can get it in the US but insurance won't pay. You picked a quote from a Lit review from 2019. Good for you. Look up Jeff Charles and mistletoe and see his story. He worked with the Believe Big foundation to get the study started at JH and the results are good initially. It saved his life. Sadly he passed on a road trip at Tulane and he was cancer free still after 10 years. It wasn't by accident.
But you are missing the point. It's not about mistletoe. Having worked in healthcare and seeing how things work and my better half working in pharma, its about money.
Read up on crispr gene editing tech for example. We should be dumping trillions into this but we don't. Ask yourself why.
Most holistic medicine can be traced back to asian countries. China, hong kong, japan all have a life expectancy about 8 more years than the US. My physical therapy clinic does dry needling. It's a alternative holistic inexpensive way to help pain. Amazing results yet insurance will not approve payment for it. Ask yourself why.
Doctors cant do a lot of non pharma stuff because it is not paid for and they want to get paid. Their hands are tied. Pharma is in bed with insurance companies.
Holistic medicine doesn't exclude the normal course of treatment. It just doesn't only believe in doing the accepted course of treatment.

The cure for cancer is to stop letting food in the body. Cancer is like a stray cat and it will keep coming back for MORE while you are still feeding it. Stop feeding it and it will be gone. My half doctor will be the first to tell you. But you do not just sit around while you are NOT eating, you do things to make your mind busy like mop floors, swim in the lake and flip tires in the field. He has this all set up for his patients. And the water you drink should NOT be from a faucet.

Where should the water come from? Straight from the Ohio River? Yes, eating well and exercise is a help in preventing cancer. That is nothing new.

We missed a huge opportunity during covid to push a healthy lifestyle. Losing weight. Eating right. Exercise. Barely a word. Instead it was mask and vaccine. We have an epidemic of fat, unhealthy citizens and instead of addressing how to fix that we pushed a vaccine.

His story

I'm not interested in your rambling, holistic, mistletoe bullshit.

Insurers don't pay for dry needling because it has not been shown to be superior to sham treatment or manual therapy in a preponderance of studies.

Evidence-based medicine...not n=1 anecdotal stories about some guy who took mistletoe.

Dry needling is a great treatment. Gets great results. Read up on recent studies. It works as well as other treatments and better in many cases. More research is being done all the time. But we do it a lot with great results. Insurance won't pay because they are cheap. At some point that will change

Speaking of food..... walmart delivery. Got two watermelons that were rotten to the CORE. I have seen road kill in better shape. Will not be making this mistake again. I will pock my own produce. Do not make this mistake!
