Crash course for newbies - on metabolic approach to stage 4 cancer (Dr Thomas Seyfried) - protocols using Fenbendazole, Ivermectin, Mebendazole generic drugs - and oncologists reversing stage 4 cancer
On the "metabolic approach" to cancer (Dr Thomas Seyfried - based on the Warburg Effect) - the protocols currently using generic drugs - standalone or in combination with standard chemotherapy
UPDATE: May 26, 2025 - Added links to Dr Annette Bosworth section
.
UPDATE: May 24, 2025 - Mary Beth Pfeiffer of the FLCCC/IMA has a great article on the experience of different doctors treating cancer - Dr Darrell DeMello, Dr Mollie James and Dr Pierre Kory
UPDATE: May 24, 2025 - while Dr William Makis is active on Twitter, he says he is unable to respond to direct messages on Twitter - as he has a huge backlog of direct messages - so e-mail remains the best way to contact Dr William Makis
UPDATE: May 24, 2025 - more recent reports suggest the Dr William Makis consultation fee can be $650
.
UPDATE: May 3, 2025 - added to Owen Hemsath stage 4 cancer reversal section - summary of his fasting schedule (taken from his videos) - and filled in more details from the videos.
.
UPDATE: April 24, 2025 - added to section on Chemothermia clinic in Istanbul, Turkey - they endorse use of Ivermectin (as well as Fenbendazole/Mebendazole - as mentioned already). They also prefer as patients those whose existing treatments are failing - for example, for a stage 4 pancreatic cancer patient if they are in pain or jaundiced - which they see as indication that existing treatment has stopped working. That is, they are willing to treat the most extreme of cases at their clinic.
UPDATE: April 20, 2025 - added sections Safety of Ivermectin for COVID-19 and the section Regarding concerns about high doses of Ivermectin at 1mg/kg to 2mg/kg bodyweight for cancer - doctors report using 1mg/kg without issue and higher if needed for aggressive cancers
UPDATE: April 20, 2025 - added section How effective are these alternative protocols for cancer? - Dr William Makis suggests "significantly higher" than 50% of cancers show reversal
UPDATE: April 20, 2025 - added headlines for the different sections - now can link directly to each section (copy link next to the headline)
UPDATE: April 17, 2025 - changed section Vitamin D levels - changed suggested Vitamin D blood levels for cancer treatment from "40-50ng/ml or higher" to "80ng/ml to less than 100ng/ml (i.e. 200-250nmol/ml)"
UPDATE: April 13, 2025 - added: Notes on choosing an oncologist - choose an "integrative oncologist"
UPDATE: April 12, 2025 - added section Jane McLelland - How to Starve Cancer. She is famous for her pioneering book "How to Starve Cancer". Her website also has a list of doctors who use these approaches - which includes some of the doctors mentioned here - like Dr Abdul Kadir Slocum of Chemothermia in Istanbul, Turkey and others - see below.
.
UPDATE: April 11, 2025 - added to section on Dr William Makis - his report that he now receives 1000 e-mails per day from prospective cancer patients.
.
UPDATE: April 11, 2025 - Added sections on impersonators of Joe Tippens, of Dr Mary Talley Bowden and of Dr William Makis. A number of unscrupulous scammers, imposters and fake accounts on various social media platforms, are trying to defraud desperate cancer patients who are looking for alternative cancer treatment doctors - by offering wrong e-mail addresses, or WhatsApp links or creating websites that suggest they are affiliated with those doctors. The lesson here is to contact doctors using their known contact information - not just assume a profile photo or name on a random social media platform is the actual person.
.
UPDATE: April 8, 2025 - in section on Joe Tippens - removed reference to fake Twitter account @JoeTippen (without the s) - after realizing that it was fake. This account had been active since September 2024 and seemed to behave like the legitimate Joe Tippens. This illustrates the extent to which scammers will go to create a believable identity. Joe Tippens' website says he is only available via his website and his Facebook groups.
.
TODO: March 5, 2025 - Care Oncology UK was one of the early ones using metabolic and Mebendazole type treatments - however, I am unsure if they are using the full set of tools - as described here. Will have to do more research to be sure if they are using protocols which lead to high success rates in all cases. Care Oncology UK seems to have undergone staff changes as well - Dr Charles Meakin headed it - but now has own clinic etc.
UPDATE: February 17, 2025 - changed title of article - original title was: Ivermectin for cancer - Dr John Campbell prominent YouTuber covers the evidence - including Dr Kathleen Ruddy oncologist video on treating long hauler whose stage 4 prostate cancer reversed
UPDATE: February 17, 2025 - added section on Chemothermia clinic in Istanbul, Turkey - Dr Abdul Kadir Slocum co-author on glioblastoma paper with Dr Thomas Seyfried
UPDATE: February 17, 2025 - added for Dr William Makis - typical consultation cost is $350 for a consult , according to some patients.
UPDATE: February 10, 2025 - added section on Joe Tippens Protocol
UPDATE: January 5, 2025 - many updates - more Dr William Makis, Dr Syed Haider videos - expanded section on chemotherapy effectiveness - Vitamin D ignored by many oncologists - examples of appeals to emotion - sodium bicarbonate as Arm & Hammer baking soda - FDA tweets on Ivermectin and eventual retraction - mainstream appeals to lack of clinical trials
.
.
SUMMARY: For a crash course on the new treatments that are showing cancer reversals in stage 4 cancers, read through this article and watch the videos - it will take a day or two, but you will be in a much better position to ask questions and research these new treatments.
In addition to the Dr John Campbell and Dr Kathleen Ruddy interviews mentioned in the original title of this article:
.
- I have added references below for those interested in the "metabolic approach" to cancer - based on the Warburg Effect - as advocated by Dr Thomas Seyfried of Boston College - low carbohydrate and intermittent fasting (glucose - under pressure) - and the drug DON (6-Diazo-5-oxo-L-norleucine) and others (glutamine inhibitors - pulse dosing) - which is called the “press-pulse protocol”
.
- as well as the protocols being used currently using generic drugs Fenbendazole, Ivermectin, Mebendazole, Vitamin D3 high dose with Vitamin K2, Vitamin C high dose intravenous, Vitamin B17 (Amygdalin/Laetrile - this is used by some doctors but is not mentioned in the protocols below - may post on it in a later substack article) - standalone or in combination with standard chemotherapy - by practicing physicians and oncologists Dr William Makis, Dr Syed Haider, Dr Mollie James, Dr Mary Talley Bowden, Dr Darrell DeMello, Dr Igor Atabekov. To follow these protocols under the supervision of a doctor or oncologist who understands the protocols, you can contact one of these physicians below.
.
- and the protocols that are outlined by Adam Gaertner, the FLCCC/IMA by Dr Paul Marik, Dr Syed Haider and others
.
- Owen Hemsath - video series on his stage 4 cancer timeline and recovery
.
- Ron Piana - science writer videos - views on the cancer industry and the commercial pressures that avoid generic or cheap solutions
.
- Chemotherapy effectiveness - in the words of Dr Paul Marik and others
.
- Vitamin D, sodium bicarbonate (to counter acidity around tumor cells) - the language used in mainstream media to smear generic treatments using an appeal to emotion
.
.
TAKEAWAY: is that on first signs of cancer - one should start Ivermectin + Fenbendazole - alternating etc. - if you have only one then just use that - (if you have neither then still do the rest of the protocol) - following one of the protocols - normalize Vitamin D levels (with supplements or the sun) to 80ng/ml to less than 100ng/ml (i.e. 200-250nmol/ml) - adopt an anti-inflammatory supplement and diet regime - omega-3, switch to meat, animal fat, butter/ghee, coconut oil, olive oil - avoid other seed oils (which are now being seen as inflammatory) - and adopt a low carb, low sugar diet - with a few days of intermittent fasting (not the same as starvation - as with intermittent fasting you are not necessarily reducing calories but just creating a long enough period of fasting to stress the cancer cells which are preferentially more affected by this type of stress) 16 hour fasting/8 hour eating window (preferable 18 hour fasting window) - starting with 1 day a week and then increasing a bit more as you see fit (see Owen Hemsath fasting schedule below) - if this is done before your next scan or before your scheduled surgery which may be 1-2 months later, you may find that the tumor sizes have reduced (which may make decisions around surgery, or the surgery itself simpler) - and it will give an idea whether this course of action can possibly offer a better route for your cancer (since surgery and biopsy can lead to cancer cell leakage to other parts of the body - and metastasis) - for this reason even if it is unclear if it is cancer (i.e. biopsy has not been done) - it may be wise to adopt these protocols before the biopsy even to see if can see reduction in scan at that time (may possibly be able to avoid biopsy if the plan is to adopt these protocols i.e. if they seem to be working). The protocols mentioned have low side effects - with Fenbendazole one should do liver function tests and lower dose if see issues - the other supplements and Ivermectin have low side effects and good safety profile.
.
NOTE: low carb/intermittent fasting - similarities to Type 2 Diabetes reversal protocols - in many ways if you choose to adopt a low carb diet and switch to meat and animal fat (as outlined above) and do intermittent fasting to create periods of ketosis - this has similarities to the current strategies for reversing Type 2 Diabetes - which often can show results (lower glucose levels and reduced insulin resistance) within 1-2 months along with 5-10kg reduction in weight. These protocols for reversing Type 2 Diabetes are by now well known - you can check out Dr Jason Fung on YouTube and for a more accessible presentation, the videos by Glucose Goddess on YouTube. Like Ivermectin and cancer reversal, the reversal of Type 2 Diabetes is now so common in segments of the public, that for videos on this subject you can find the comment section is full of people who report similar results. There are also patient groups who do seminars and report reversal of Type 2 Diabetes (insulin insensitivity) - and for Type 1 Diabetes (lack of insulin production) a modest reduction in the insulin doses needed has been observed - due to reduction in insulin resistance. The basic principle of these strategies is to smooth out the curves for glucose (as seen on a continuous glucose monitor - not huge peaks/pulses) and for insulin levels - as a result in addition to the short term benefit - over time you see an improvement/increase in the insulin sensitivity (Type 2 Diabetes is a disease of insulin insensitivity).

Here is the website for the FLCCC/IMA clinical trial for cancer using repurposed drugs:
https://covid19criticalcare.com/cancer-study/
Detailed list of providers (PDF) - doctors and clinics participating in the trial (Dr Mollie James - James Clinic - is a participating provider - see below):
.
Regarding the cost of participating in the trial (from PDF above) - it seems the FLCCC/IMA trial will not cover the cost of the generic drugs (which are usually cheap) or the doctor consults via tele-medicine (i.e. over internet/phone calls):
(if these costs are prohibitive, consider contacting Dr William Makis or Dr Syed Haider)
>Please Note: While there is no cost to enroll in the study, each patient will be responsible for the medical advice and treatment therapies provided by the participating clinics. Costs vary, since each clinic sets its own pricing – some focus on complementary care and work with the patients’ existing oncologists, while others provide end-to-end cancer care including a combination of traditional cancer treatments as well as complementary care using repurposed drugs. Clinic-based therapies are typically more expensive than telemedicine and costs will vary based on each patient’s medical history.

Her bio from the FLCCC/IMA PDF above:
Dr. Ruddy is a retired cancer surgeon trained at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center. During her 28 years in practice, she took care of more than 10,000 patients in the United States and abroad. She has a Masters degree in International Healthcare Leadership from McGill University. She served on the Leadership Council of the Harvard School of Public Health and was deeply involved in mobilizing international support for West Africa during the outbreak of Ebola in 2014. Dr. Ruddy authored the first book about the human breast cancer virus, The End of Breast Cancer: A Virus and the Hope for a Vaccine. She is now a scientific investigator in an observational study whose objective is to answer the question, "Do repurposed, FDA-approved drugs like ivermectin improve the survival of patients with cancer?"

Dr Thomas Seyfried - Boston College - origins of cancer as a metabolic disease
Dr Thomas Seyfried is active in advocating for the metabolic approach to cancer therapy.
The mainstream view of cancer is as a genetic disease. Much of the research energy and commercial activity is devoted towards this line of reasoning. Mainstream doctors will usually go apoplectic when an alterative to the genetic theory of cancer is presented. This is probably because it goes against the major thrust of modern cancer research and commercial drug development.

.
Dr Thomas Seyfried of Boston College - in a 2014 paper, demonstrated in experiments that replacing the nucleus (which contains the DNA) of a cancer cell did not seem to change it’s cancerous behavior.
In addition, replacing the nucleus of a normal cell with that from a cancer cell - did not seem to make the normal cell behave cancerous.
This convinced Dr Thomas Seyfried that the DNA information alone must not be the only answer.
And is related to the rest of the cell (the mitochondria - the energy engine of the cell being one culprit).

Dr Thomas Seyfried - Warburg Effect from 1930s - cancer cells use an alternate metabolic pathway
This tied in to what was already known as the Warburg Effect from the 1930s (which won him the Nobel Prize) - where cancer cells were seen to use 200x the amount of glucose that normal cells used (this behavior is used in PET scans for tracking radioactive tagged glucose to observe areas of high activity which reveals cancer presence in the body).
Cancer cells did this by using a metabolic pathway that used glucose inefficiently, but overall in much larger quantities - and did not use oxygen in this process (even when it was available). This metabolic pathway is often called the fermentation pathway - lactic acid is produced (much as happens in muscles when you exercise under conditions of oxygen depletion).
.
Here is a 2024 review of the Warburg Effect (100th anniversary) by two Stanford researchers:

Dr Thomas Seyfried - press-pulse protocol
Dr Thomas Seyfried advocates starving cancer by intermittent fasting and ketogenic diet.
To create periods of reduced glucose (the press part of the press-pulse protocol).
And pulse dosing of drugs like DON (glutamine inhibitor) - since glutamine is essential these drugs are used for short periods (pulse dosing).
When this is done repeatedly over long periods - the cancer cells (which rely on high glucose use 200x more than normal cells) - experience stress and experience attrition.
This strategy is called “press-pulse protocol”.
.
While the Warburg Effect and the utility of restricting glucose or glutamine individually or both, could be debated. The final impact of glucose restriction or glutamine restriction will be decided by real-world performance - are patients able to reduce tumor size with just glucose restriction alone or with both (regardless of the theoretical reason why it should not work - practical data in humans is what is key to answer this question).
(NOTE: even when glutamine inhibiting drugs are not used - there is plenty of anecdotal evidence of stage 4 cancer sufferers who adopted aggressive intermittent fasting protocols - and were able to slow the growth of their tumors - and then reduce them in size - however fasting alone may not remove the “seeds” or cancer stem cells - and for this reason most of these cases report that they are able to “manage” their cancer - if they slack off on the intermittent fasting, the cancer starts growing back, so they have to get back on the fasting protocol)
(TODO: add in Dr Berg interviews with stage 4 users who reversed with aggressive fasting protocols)
(NOTE: thus it is clear that fasting alone is a means to stress the cancer - and reduce it in size - and provide more time to the stage 4 patient - to allow them to add additional supplements and therapies which will eventually remove the “seeds” as well)

Dr Mary Talley Bowden - fake social media accounts that impersonate
Use this direct link to point people to this section: https://stereomatch.substack.com/i/153490248/dr-mary-talley-bowden-fake-social-media-accounts-that-impersonate
Like Joe Tippens, and Dr William Makis, Dr Mary Talley Bowden has also reported that unscrupulous scammers on various social media platforms are trying to defraud cancer patients who are looking for alternative cancer treatment doctors (the lesson here is to contact doctors using their known contact information - not just their profile photo or name on a random social media platform - as those could be impersonators):

EDIT: May 24, 2025 - Mary Beth Pfeiffer of the FLCCC/IMA has a great article on the experience of different doctors treating cancer - Dr Darrell DeMello, Dr Mollie James and Dr Pierre Kory.
She describes the experience of Dr Darrell DeMello with sixteen cancer patients and the patterns of recoveries he has seen - as well as the protocols he is using.
Dr Darrell DeMello also has the same observation that cancer patients are reluctant to try these alternative protocols in the early stages (when they are heavily invested in their oncologists) - it is only when they are at stage 4 (and jettisoned by their oncologist) that they consider alternative therapies.
He also suggests he has seen better results with those in the earlier stages - and that it becomes harder with severe patients who have gone through the damaging impact of chemotherapy and radiation.

FLCCC/IMA - Dr Paul Marik - 2nd most published ICU doctor
Dr Paul Marik is one of the founders of the FLCCC/IMA (FLCCC has been renamed to the IMA) - a group that compiled an easy to use protocol for COVID-19.
And lobbied the US Senate to restart use of steroids for COVID-19 - prior to that NIH/CDC/WHO had recommended steroids not be used (they relented after RECOVERY UK trial on steroids appeared):
.
.
Dr Paul Marik played a crucial role in elucidating the role and need for high enough dose steroids in the post-day8 hyperinflammatory stage of COVID-19 - and that capping steroids to Dexamethasone 6mg per day was the main reason large US hospitals were having such a high death rate (20-22% overall and 80% for ICU - in the mid-2020 period):
.
.
Dr Paul Marik is also credited with creating the first effective treatment for sepsis (which claims a large portion of hospital deaths) - although there is much criticism of this protocol because of contrary studies it is likely he was correct in this regard as well.
Dr William Makis, Dr Paul Marik and others have published a peer-reviewed paper on a treatment protocol for hard to treat cancers (see Dr William Makis section below).

Dr William Makis - radiologist & oncologist (Canada)
Dr William Makis is an oncologist based in Canada.
He has been active in pushback against the healthcare authorities in Canada for their intransigience in adapting to new models of cancer therapy.
He does tele-health consultations - specifically for cancer - worldwide.
.
Twitter: https://x.com/MakisMD
Substack: https://makismd.substack.com
E-mail: makisw79@yahoo.com
.
Dr William Makis maintains a very active substack - he had started off by first reporting on cancer reversal cases that were being reported on social media. But after he started taking on cancer patients himself using these protocols, he has started reporting on his own experiences with cancer reversals in patients using metabolic plus Fenbendazole/Ivermectin/Mebendazole - also sometimes in combination with traditional chemotherapy.
His substack requires a paid subscription, but his Twitter posts (tweets) provide plenty of information on each case report - screenshots of e-mail correspondence and feedback from patients (anonymized so no patient identification is present).
If you cannot afford to subscribe to his substack, you can still glean much of the information from his Twitter posts.
.
.
Dr William Makis - contacting
Dr William Makis prefers to be contacted via his yahoo e-mail address - after which the patient is scheduled for tele-health over Zoom video calls - i.e. a link will be sent which can be opened in a web browser to do a video conference call.
UPDATE: April 27, 2025 - Dr William Makis receives over 1000 e-mails a day (see below) - as a result many patients report a wait of 5-6 days before they receive a reply. But his team does take effort to reach all those who send them e-mails.

Dr William Makis - consultation costs
Typical costs for consultation seems to be $350 according to some patients. The drug costs will be in addition to that.
https://x.com/KimmieSue42/status/1873291645220983175?t=KD6uwOkhDjenpaniKHzxEA&s=19
I sent him an email and received a response within 24 hours. He charges $350 for a zoom appointment. His protocol is posted throughout his feed as well.
.
EDIT: May 24, 2025 - more recent reports suggest fees can be $650 - zoom call may be less common - but his staff does try to improve response time via e-mail:
https://stereomatch.substack.com/p/ivermectin-for-cancer-dr-john-campbell/comment/118191170
May 18, 2025
It was $650 USD ..
We didn't get a zoom call, just communication through email and whenever we ask questions we get replies from his assistant probably because he's busy but recently we got a reply from himself because his assistant flagged my dad's case due to our concerns. He replied saying at the very least to stick to the repurposed drugs because those are the key things that work. I forwarded the email to my dad for encouragement.
He gave us links to find IVM and Fenben so that was very helpful. I ordered 12mg tablets so I can ship to him so that he doesn't have to take so many 3mg tablets which is what he has access to where he currently is.

A number of accounts on Twitter (X dot com) can be seen replying to people saying that Dr William Makis is hard to reach - but can be reached at some new e-mail address (which is fake). Those profiles are made to look like legitimate followers of Dr William Makis - and they engage with other users - but occasionally they will offer the new e-mail address to unsuspecting patients. Often the profile photos on these accounts are those of innocuous looking old ladies - perhaps the intent is that if anyone reminds them of the correct e-mail address - they can claim they made a mistake or are forgetful.
Other Twitter accounts are active offering up WhatsApp links - as a fast way to reach Dr William Makis - both these fake e-mails and the WhatsApp links are fake - and designed to lure in people who can then be defrauded.

How effective are these alternative protocols for cancer?
One hears of anecdotal reports of cancer reversals with Fenbendazole/Mebendazole, or Ivermectin, or in combination. On social media - in the comments section of YouTube videos about cancer. And from the reports of doctors using these alternative therapies.
However, anecdotal reports suffer from "selection bias" i.e. the ones who survive usually will feel motivated enough to post about it. Those who get worse will not be energetic enough to post about their experience. So you will tend to get a unrepresentative (positive) view of the effectiveness of these alternative treatments.
A patient therefore may not feel they have the answer to the question - how effective are these alternative therapies - can they be constructed (or dosed high enough) - to ensure 100% reversal for 100% of the people?
There is way to judge - and that is to assess how frequent the reports are of stage 4 pancreatic cancer reversals. Because only a handful or fewer of such cancers reverse in the whole of the United States in any given year.
When one physician or a set of physicians using a new protocol start to show many such reversals - that is a statistically significant event i.e. there is a signal of efficacy there.
I demonstrate in an article that three consecutive stage 4 pancreatic cancer reversals with a new protocol - is statistically significant in comparison with RCTs (randomized controlled trials) of anemic chemotherapy drugs - see article:
.
https://stereomatch.substack.com/p/is-chatgpt-a-better-judge-of-probability
Is ChatGPT a better judge of probability than doctors? - discussing case studies vs RCTs as reliable indicators of efficacy
.
While this shows that there is a signal of efficacy i.e. there is a proof that stage 4 pancreatic cancer cases can reverse with regularity.
The general pattern from all anecdotes is also clear - most report reversals in cancer blood markers in 1 month, and tumor reversal visible in 2 months - and usually within 6 months are achieving NED (no evidence of disease).
But this still does not tell a patient if HIS stage 4 pancreatic cancer will reverse - do 90% of such cases reverse to NED (no evidence of disease) or 70% or 50%? If all other conditions are favorable - patient can walk, can eat well, and is not yet showing large weight loss (cachexia).
Because if this number is closer to 100% then it changes how you strategize for cancer - can avoid disfiguring surgery, damage to lymph nodes (and lymphatic drainage) and avoid biopsy altogether - and just treat first (given these alternative treatments are generally safe - i.e. without serious side effects).
.
To get a better idea of reversal, you need to hear from a doctor who has seen many cases - so much so that he has a feeling for how many percentage of each cancer type can achieve NED (no evidence of disease).
.
Dr William Makis has suggested that Fenbendazole/Mebendazole plus Ivermectin protocols are effective in "significantly higher" than 50% of cancer cases:

Chemothermia clinic in Istanbul, Turkey - Dr Abdul Kadir Slocum
UPDATE: April 24, 2025 - Adding some more information on Chemothermia. They seem to be accessible - a patient contacted Chemothermia via e-mail and was offered several consultation times scheduled for a few days later - with Dr Abdul Kader Slocum. The patient discussed their stage 4 pancreatic cancer patient's current condition and ongoing treatment (currently getting traditional chemotherapy at low dose - plus Ivermectin and Mebendazole - along with other combinations). Chemothermia indicated they endorse the use of Ivermectin plus Mebendazole (they already mention Mebendazole on their website - so this confirms that they are also using or open to using Ivermectin).
UPDATE: April 24, 2025 - They also prefer patients whose existing treatments are failing - for example, for a stage 4 pancreatic cancer patient, if they are having pain or jaundice - which they see as indication that existing treatment has stopped working. While for a stage 4 pancreatic cancer patient (on traditional chemotherapy plus alternative therapy), if they are not having pain or jaundice - that suggests to them that treatment is working - and they do not need to come to their clinic. Only if existing treatments stop working do they think the patient is suitable for their clinic. That means they are willing to treat the most extreme of cases at their clinic.
UPDATE: April 24, 2025 - The reason to limit stage 4 cancers or the most extreme cases - may be strategic (not wanting step on the toes of the existing cancer industry) - and logistical as well (they cannot treat all the cancer cases in the world - so they are focusing to treat the most extreme cases). There is another aspect to this - mostly stage 4 cancer patients are being treated with alternate therapies - because before that point, most patients are 100% invested in their traditional oncologist. It is only when they reach stage 4 and the traditional oncologist gives up - that they are free to consider other options - before that they are too afraid to try anything their traditional oncologist doesn't endorse.
UPDATE: April 24, 2025 - The logistics of visiting Chemothermia is that (for a patient who can go home easily) - the schedule would be 10 days in Chemothermia's Istanbul clinic - during which they will be treated with traditional chemotherapy (low dose - which usually has minimal side effects) - and Ivermectin, Mebendazole, Vitamin C high dose intraveous and the other supplement combinations that are meant to attack cancer stem cells (CSCs). Then the patient can go back to their home country if they prefer - for 10 days. Presumably the visit to Istanbul is to get the chemotherapy and Vitamin C high dose intravenous infusions. The other multi-pronged approaches to attacking cancer stem cells (CSCs) can probably be done from home - as explained in the FLCCC/IMA Dr Paul Marik Cancer Care Guide - and in Dr Justus Hope's article covering that - the treatments could be Vitamin C plus Doxycycline low dose - Curcumin plus Piperine supplement.
.
Prof. Bulent Berkarda, Prof. Mehmet Salih İyikesici and Dr. Abdul Kadir Slocum at the Chemothermia clinic seem to have been using metabolic approach since 2012 - as attested by their publications:
https://chemothermia.com/publications/
They seem to have increased longer survival times with this approach - with stage 4 pancreatic cancer and other stage 4 cancers.

>We are now able to offer appointments with one of our doctors in London for those interested in finding out more about Chemothermia and discussing the suitability of our treatment for their condition.
>Appointments are available one Saturday a month.
>Please email us for further details.
.
From the videos of their stage 4 cancer patients, they use lower dose traditional chemotherapy - combined with metabolic approach, ketogenic diet along with Vitamin C high dose intravenous, hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT), antioxidants. For a better experience for the patient.
50% of their patients come from outside Turkey
.
List of therapies they use:
https://chemothermia.com/therapies/
.
NOTE: their website does mention Mebendazole (they may also include Ivermectin - but the negative press may have prevented them from including it in their publicity material?):
UPDATE: April 24, 2025 - I can confirm from a patient consult with Chemothermia - that they endorse the use of Ivermectin as well as Mebendazole (mentioned here already)
https://chemothermia.com/therapies/repurposed-drugs/
Since when have they been using or aware of Mebendazole (and by association, Fenbendazole, Ivermectin)?
Looking at the archive.org snapshots of this webpage, there are 6 snapshots between October 5, 2023 and November 12, 2024. And all of them mention Mebendazole - so they have been aware of Mebendazole since Oct 5, 2023 at the very least.

It should be recalled that a stage 4 pancreatic cancer reversal is rare - a typical oncologist will not see even a single case of stage 4 pancreatic cancer reversal in his lifetime of treating thousands of cancer patients with traditional chemotherapy and radiation.

Joe Tippens Protocol - Fenbendazole
Joe Tippens was the only survivor out of a 1,100 patient clinical trial for an anti-cancer drug (reported to be a trial for Keytruda/pembrolizumab). He was taking Fenbendazole, CBD oil, Curcumin on the side. He started using Fenbendazole after he was informed by a veterinarian friend of the effectiveness of the drug for cancer in dogs (TODO: correct this - it may have been a friend who pointed to research paper which mentioned mice had reversed cancer on this drug).
Joe Tippens’ story has inspired many over the years - if there is widespread public awareness of Fenbendazole as cancer treatment, it is because of the activism of Joe Tippens. While Jane McLelland emphasized diet and metabolic approach as well as repurposed generic drugs, Joe Tippens and the cancer patients who followed his approach, demonstrated that simpler protocols where there was not as much adherence to diet/metabolic approach, could also demonstrate cancer reversal. This does not mean that all cancer patients will experience reversal at a particular dose - may require escalation after which cancer reversal may be seen - as Dr William Makis has demonstrated.
However, Fenbendazole has higher name recognition in the cancer community, mainly because of the efforts of Joe Tippens - now Ivermectin and Mebendazole (alternative to Fenbendazole) are also gaining acceptance.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, a whole new class of doctors started to become comfortable with Ivermectin’s many uses. Early treatment doctors who treated COVID-19 early - found use for long COVID-19, reversing post-day8 anosmia - became experienced in using Ivermectin at a range of dosing and duration schedules. Comfort about the safety of the drug increased. The extensive scrutiny of Ivermectin - and the Big Pharma hostility to it - led to greater awareness of the pre-existing evidence for Ivermectin for cancer. FLCCC/IMA and other researchers created anti-cancer protocols that included Ivermectin and Fenbendazole. Over time more reports emerged of benefit with Fenbendazole + Ivermectin tandem attack on cancer.
Joe Tippens’ protocol led to the creation of Fenbendazole related Facebook forums for cancer reversal - during the pandemic they also were censored by the fact-checking industry that emerged out of the military-style pandemic response. As a result Joe Tippens protocol related forums on Facebook also experienced censorship.
.
There currently are Joe Tippens protocol related forums on Facebook - but are kept private to avoid attention and censorship - you will have to ask the moderators to get approval to view and comment there.
During the pandemic, censorship was carried out at industrial scale. After the acquisition of Twitter by a group led by Elon Musk, it was renamed to X dot com, and many early treatment doctors were reinstated. As a result Twitter (X dot com) emerged as one of the few mainstream social media forums where alternate therapies could be discussed.

>In August 2016, fenbendazole garnered global attention as a potential anti-cancer therapy following the complete recovery success story of Joe Tippens, who was diagnosed with small-cell lung cancer. At the time, Tippens was undergoing a clinical trial for a novel anti-cancer drug. Meanwhile, under the guidance of a veterinarian, Tippens began self-administering 222 mg fenbendazole orally, along with vitamin E supplements, CBD oil, and bioavailable curcumin. After three months of self-administration, a PET scan revealed no detectable cancer cells in his body. Notably, Tippens was the only patient cured of cancer among the 1,100 clinical trial participants (3). While the Joe Tippens case is compelling, it remains an anecdotal report. It underscores the need for rigorous clinical trials to validate the efficacy and safety of fenbendazole as an anti-cancer therapy.

An Odd Cure for Incurable Cancer
An inexpensive drug has cured thousands from "incurable" cancers. Mainstream cancer researchers admit it has proven efficacy against cancer but refuse to use it. Here's how it was discovered.

Joe Tippens - fake social media accounts that impersonate
Use this direct link to point people to this section: https://stereomatch.substack.com/i/153490248/joe-tippens-fake-social-media-accounts-that-impersonate
Like Dr Mary Talley Bowden, and Dr William Makis, Joe Tippens also reports that unscrupulous scammers on various social media platforms are trying to defraud cancer patients who are looking for alternative cancer treatment doctors (the lesson here is to contact doctors using their known contact information - not just their profile photo or name on a random social media platform - as those could be impersonators):

Hey Blog Readers! VERY IMPORTANT
Over the past six months, the number of fraudulent sites exploiting our story has grown increasingly audacious and sophisticated. They are using their platforms to deceitfully steal money from vulnerable and frightened cancer patients. I understand it’s disturbing. My fellow volunteer moderators and I have tirelessly sought assistance from social media sites to address this issue, but to no avail.
The sophistication and effort these individuals employ to deceive unsuspecting cancer patients would astonish you. This includes using AI to replicate my likeness, commandeering my phone to steal a picture of my driver’s license, and even utilizing AI to mimic my voice while imitating my facial expressions and movements to trick people into thinking they are interacting with me.
I want the 50,000+ members of this site to understand the seriousness of these fraudulent actors and communicate to anyone you know not to be fooled by them, and under no circumstances send them money. And to be clear, the Facebook group, “mycancerstory.rocks”, is the only group that I am associated with and the only group I will ever be associated with. If you find any other group using my name, it is not me and will likely be scammers. I will never offer anything for sale.
I would also like to enlist this entire army of cancer warriors to reach out to Meta (Facebook, YouTube, WhatsApp, Instagram), primarily, as well as X and LinkedIn, to alert them to this blatantly fraudulent activity and to inform them that these individuals are exploiting the most vulnerable and insecure consumers who have cancer. Perhaps a critical mass of complaints could prompt them to actually pay attention.
The following groups are, so far, the biggest offenders (These Sites are Scammers and People Pretending to be Joe Tippens):
“JOE TIPPENS PROTOCOL.”
“Joe Tippens Protocol for Pets”
“JOE-TIPPENS-PROTOCOL..”
“MYCANCERSTORY-ROCK”
“FENBENDAZOLE AND RSO OIL AWARENESS – CANCER SUPPORT COMMUNITY”
“NEVER GIVE UP CANCER ISN’T A DEATH SENTENCE/BEAT CANCER WITH A SMILE” FORMERLY CALLED “BEAT CANCER WITH JUST FENBENDAZOLE/JOE TIPPENS PROTOCOL/SUPPLEMENTS”
“FENBENDAZOLE – CANCER GROUP FOR ALL”
“Fenbendazole Cancer Support Group”
Thank you in advance for helping in the cause.
The real Joe Tippens
.
.
This type of behavior has not been seen during the COVID-19 pandemic (for patients seeking early treatment doctors). I do not recall a single impersonator. Perhaps with cancer, scammers know that cancer patients are more desperate and are willing to spend more.
Cancer patients have become aware of alternative cancer treatments - but don’t know how to contact doctors who know enough about how to proceed with treatment.
Some may not be comfortable using the veterinary form of the drugs - and may want the human version via prescription.
Dr William Makis has suggested that patients who cannot find the human version of these drugs - can use the veterinary versions. Thus everyone should be able to treat their cancer.

I notice that a lot of people are specifically seeking ivermectin and fenbendazole, and I'm able to supply these to you. However, it's important to understand that using only these two components might not be sufficient for effective treatment. For a more comprehensive approach, consider combining these substances with other crucial ingredients such as vitamin B17, vitamin E, vitamin C, TUDCA, FECO, and onco adjunct pathways. Each of these plays a significant role in supporting the treatment process. Nevertheless, if you are interested in acquiring just those two ingredients, I can provide them. The ivermectin comes in a 12mg pill form, with each bottle containing 150 pills priced at 160, while fenbendazole is available in 444mg pills, with 100 pills priced at 140. If you want to purchase these, feel free to reach out to me via WhatsApp at +1 (775) 313-3866 or through text message at +1 (209) 284-3429.

Jane McLelland - How to Starve Cancer
Dr Thomas Seyfried had published his original paper in 2014 on the metabolic approach to cancer and has been trying to publicize it and add new findings from his research (glucose and glutamine as drivers - and press-pulse protocol to address both).
However, Jane McLelland's book "How to Starve Cancer" published in 2018 - which described her approach to reversing cancer - introduced the wider public to the metabolic approach to reducing the growth of cancer - as well as the use of multi-drug protocols to attack the pathways for cancers.
And she did it by example - describing how she was able to reverse her terminal cancer. This type of public exposure is important because otherwise pharma and media which is dependent on advertising by pharma, are not that interested in pushing repurposed generic drugs, or diet as treatment options for cancer. As an example, many mainstream cancer related sub-reddits (reddit dot com) explicitly forbid discussion of metabolic approach - only the genetic explanation for cancer is to be discussed. A similar fate awaits repurposed generic drugs - some of which are also prohibited from discussion.
The multi-drug protocols she used, included metformin, statins, aspirin and doxycycline. Some of these drugs are also included in the other protocols from Joe Tippens - to the more recent protocols that developed during the pandemic. See section on FLCCC/IMA Cancer Care guide by Dr Paul Marik - which covers the full spectrum of treatment options - that is inspired by Dr Thomas Seyfried (metabolic), Jane McLelland and Joe Tippens (Fenbendazole) and their own experiences with Ivermectin (and their increasing comfortableness with higher doses) during the COVID-19 pandemic.
This history has set the stage for high dose Fenbendazole/Mebendazole and Ivermectin as part of treatment protocols.

Jane McLelland maintains a list of doctors who are receptive to these alternative approaches - some may not use the full spectrum (for example some may still avoid Ivermectin if it is problematic in their country - i.e. risks losing their medical license then they may avoid):
Her list includes some doctors mentioned here already - like Dr Abdul Kadir Slocum of Chemothermia in Istanbul, Turkey - and some like Dr Charles Meakin and Dr Hariharan Kuhan - who were associated with Care Oncology UK (an early adopter of these approaches). Care Oncology UK seems to be disbanded now (their website doesn't work) - and it seems the doctors there have moved on to their own clinics.

Notes on choosing an oncologist - choose an "integrative oncologist"
In general, when you are looking for a physician (for non-cancer issues), a "functional medicine physician" is likely to have a wider awareness of treatment options - including supplements like Vitamin D3 + Vitamin K2, Vitamin C high dose intravenous, HBOT (hyperbaric oxygen therapy) - and even sometimes herbal remedies and acupuncture.
These functional medicine physicians are more likely to use a multi-pronged strategy and protocols to attack complex diseases (auto-immune, chronic diseases). And more likely to understand that type 2 diabetes can be reversed within 1-2 months with a ketogenic diet + intermittent fasting - and that this can control blood pressure (leading some to avoid BP medicine altogether), and normalize other blood markers (as well as reduce weight by 10kg or so).
These functional medicine doctors are also likely to understand that high cholesterol can sometimes be a secondary marker - in response to inflammation - and they are more likely to be skeptical of routine use of statins "to lower cholesterol".
In a similar way, for cancer the "integrative oncologists" are better aware of the wider set of treatment options - and more likely to agree to a multi-pronged approach - where supplements and therapies are used simultaneously to reverse cancer - and to use supplements that are likely to kill cancer stem cells (not just reduce tumors as chemotherapy often does).
So if you are looking for a physician for a multi-pronged approach to reversing cancer - you are more likely to find an understanding ear in an "integrative oncologist" - than a mainstream oncologist (who may simply be following hospital protocol).
Many mainstream oncologists even fail to mention Vitamin D blood levels - and fail to advise use of high dose Vitamin D3 + Vitamin K2 - to keep Vitamin D blood levels in the 80ng/ml range (below 30ng/ml is usually considered deficient by mainstream medicine - though most in the public will have much lower levels like 15ng/ml esp. if they have an inflammatory or auto-immune condition). So if mainstream oncologists are unaware of even Vitamin D as a risk factor - how much other information are they unaware of?
An "integrative oncologist" is also more likely to be receptive to the use of Fenbendazole/Mebendazole/Ivermectin. And may already be aware of the metabolic approach to cancer (Dr Thomas Seyfried).
A mainstream oncologist meanwhile will argue with you that cancer is a genetic disease primarily - and it needs to (only) be targeted with costly-to-manufacture high tech drugs. Some will get angry if you mention "metabolic approach to cancer" (even though they know that the PET scans that screen for cancer are relying on the as much as 200x use of glucose by cancer cells).
Mainstream oncologists will also flip their top if you mention Fenbendazole or Ivermectin. Firstly because their training has not prepared them for it - and they lack that experience. But also because they cannot prescribe it due to their hospital protocols - so whatever they cannot prescribe, they usually do not want to know about (otherwise how will you justify willingly and knowingly denying a treatment that you know of and have researched well already?).
So there is a degree of willingness to be ignorant - in order to make their current jobs less morally troubled - "ignorance is bliss".
This extends to when stage 4 cancer patients find they have achieved NED (no evidence of disease) to the great surprise of their mainstream oncologist - however when the patient tells the mainstream oncologist what they were using on the side, they usually do not want to know - the better ones will say "just keep doing whatever you are doing" - but will most often not be interested in knowing what additional therapy the patient used that might have had an effect. This is the level of scientific inquiry existent in mainstream oncology.
At least this pattern of behavior is what one hears time and time again from stage 4 cancer patients who achieve NED using Fenbendazole/Ivermectin on their own in addition to the (usually palliative i.e. will not achieve NED) chemotherapy treatments. If doctors are surprised by something, ideally they should also ask what new thing the patient was doing on the side - just for their own information.
The above is a caricature of a "mainstream oncologist" - and there surely are curious and moral mainstream oncologists - but the general bulk of mainstream oncologists will usually fit the above pattern.
.
Simple Test
But if your mainstream oncologist has not bothered to check your Vitamin D levels - or raise your Vitamin D blood levels to 80ng/ml up to 100mg/ml - that is a sign of an oncologist who is not an integrative oncologist.
If you mention whether Vitamin C high dose intravenous 50grams to 75grams - would be of any benefit - and they have no clue - that is also a sign they are not reading beyond their script or protocol they have at their hospital.
These are basic things most "integrative oncologists" will know - but mainstream oncologists are known to not be aware or not emphasize these things to their patients.

Owen Hemsath - stage 4 cancer reversal - case study
His story is interesting because he covers the gamut of treatments - from his experience with traditional chemotherapy and radiation.
To the metabolic approach (fasting, ketogenic diet) and sauna hot/cold therapy.
He initially had a stage 3 cancer diagnosis for which he used chemotherapy and radiation.
Five years later the cancer came back - as stage 4 cancer.
This time he used no chemotherapy and no radiation.
He used intermittent fasting along with Fenbendazole or Mebendazole and Ivermectin and supplements usually mentioned in the alternative cancer protocols.
And was able to reverse the stage 4 cancer.
.
He too was inspired by Jane McLelland's book "How to Starve Cancer" to look for fasting to starve cancer - and alternative therapies i.e. combinations of drugs and supplements that have activity against cancer.
He recommends some books for diet changes.
And he also recommends the Dr Thomas Seyfried book "Summary of Cancer as a Metabolic Disease" - which covers starvation of cancer fuel sources (glucose and glutamine) - primarily glucose restriction by reducing sugar and carbohydrates. And use of periodic intermittent fasting to create periods of ketosis (usually achieved at the end of a 16-18 hour fast).
His videos provide a good explanation of the timeline, and what to expect at each stage.
And how long it took to show results with the metabolic approach (reduced tumors by 50% i.e. halved - within one year - and cancer free within 2 years).

Owen Hemsath timeline
- lung tumor
- surgery
- chemotherapy
- radiation (which damaged tissue)
- 5 year gap
- then cancer detected again as multiple tumors all over body - stage 4 metastatic terminal cancer
- within one year he reduced tumors by 50% with fasting and ketogenic diet (see fasting schedule below)
- within 2 years he was cancer free (see second video above from May 13, 2024) - and he did this without chemotherapy and without radiation - using only the alternative approaches
.
NOTE: using fasting to reduce tumors does not necessarily mean that the cancer is gone - but that it has reduced or is not thriving. To ensure cancer is gone for good - the cancer stem cells need to be attacked (for example with Ivermectin, Curcumin, Vitamin C + Doxycline combination, Vitamin C high dose intravenous).
.
He does include in his level 2 treatments:
- Ivermectin
- Fenbendazole or Mebendazole
In his videos, by his level 1 treatments he means - fasting, keto, sauna.
And level 2 treatments refers to his use of supplements and repurposed drugs like Ivermectin, Fenbendazole or Mebendazole.

Owen Hemsath fasting schedule
Owen Hemsath outlines his fasting schedule in the videos above:
- 18 hour water fast - for 5 days (Monday to Friday)
- 24 hour fast - once per week (Sunday dinner to Monday dinner)
- 3 day fast (72 hours) - once a month
- 7 day fast - once a year (first time did at a fasting clinic for better monitoring - next time in a hotel with friends visiting)

>Dr. Paul Marik Exposes the Truth About Cancer
>Only “about 5% of all cancers that are actually curable with chemotherapy.”
>For the remaining 95%, “Chemotherapy is palliative at best” and comes with several nasty side effects:
>Nausea and vomiting
>Hair loss
>Anemia
>Infections
>Bruising and bleeding
>Skin and nail changes
>Cognitive changes
>Sexual and reproductive issues
>Peripheral neuropathy
>Edema
>“Knocks out the bone marrow”
>Et cetera
>So, are conventional cancer treatments working?
>Despite advancements in chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and surgical treatments over the past 30 years, the overall life expectancy of a cancer patient has been extended by a measly 3.9 months.
>As such, Dr. Marik advised cancer patients to ask this question: “Is this chemotherapy going to cure my cancer, or is it just going to palliate and extend my life a month or two with terrible side effects?”

Here is another similar view from Dr Michael Greger - on the efficacy of chemotherapy - and how sometimes treatments that are later found to not be effective - yet still retain FDA approval - and how minor improvements are used to justify costly treatments:

Mainstream appeal to emotion against alternative therapies
While alternate therapies are usually individually examined in the popular press, what is often not examined is the impact of a combination of such therapies - esp when they have low or no side effects.
And their impact when in combination with traditional chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
A standard technique often observed in such activism in the mainstream press is to herd the public away from treatments that are cheap - and towards treatments that are expensive and commercially attractive.

FDA "horse dewormer" smear tweets against Ivermectin
Smearing a generic drug treatment by appeal to emotion was used during the pandemic - in the FDA "horse dewormer" tweet against Ivermectin "you are not a horse" - suggesting it was a drug that was not used by humans (Ivermectin won a Nobel Prize for use in humans!).
FDA later had to retract their tweet after a lawsuit by Dr Mary Talley Bowden and others against the FDA:

Is Ivermectin safe? Let me break it down for you.
(Video)
.
Transcript of video clip:
Voiceover: This doctor successfully treated over 6000 COVID-19 patients - and she answers the question - is Ivermectin safe?
Dr Mary Talley Bowden: There is something called the LD50 which stands for lethal dose 50 - it's a benchmark number that's used to gauge how toxic a medication is - so the higher the number, the lower the toxicity.
In COVID-19 we were using higher doses of Ivermectin than what you used to treat parasites.
So I wanted to make sure these higher doses were ok.
Once you look at the LD50 of Ivermectin - there were from 11-82 times what we were giving for COVID-19.
So we were far under the threshold.
And then I did a literature search and tried to find accidental and intentional overdoses from Ivermectin.
And I couldn't find anything.
.
.
.
.
Regarding concerns about high doses of Ivermectin at 1mg/kg to 2mg/kg bodyweight for cancer
While Ivermectin has few side effects - at the dosing often used for COVID-19 - Ivermectin 0.4mg/kg bodyweight - after 5 days in some users, visual artifacts or visual disturbances may be seen.
For this reason during COVID-19 - many early treatment doctors used it for 5 days - then took a 3 day break - and then did a 3 day refresher course. To avoid complaints of visual distrubances issue.
Here is the section from the Ivermectin wiki describing this phenomenon:
.
https://saidit.net/s/Ivermectin2/wiki/index#wiki_ivermectin_-_dizziness.2C_visual_disturbances
Ivermectin - Dizziness, visual disturbances
.
However, for long COVID-19 (long haulers), longer doses of Ivermectin have been used - for example I have used it for 2 weeks in the case of a 74 year female with rebounding inflammation (i.e. viral persistence) - she tolerated this dose without issue. It brought CRP, D-dimer levels to normal.
So the question remained - how are people using Ivermectin at 1mg/kg bodyweight dosing for long periods? Do they not get the most obvious side effect of visual disturbances after 5 days or earlier?
Since people are using for longer periods - without obvious expression of complaint, that suggests that may not be as much of an issue.
Some doctors and users in comments on social media and in interview videos have mentioned that the issue goes away after a few days i.e. it is a process of acclimatization or the body gets used to it. This explains why patients are able to use it over longer periods of time.

Dr William Makis testimonial on high dose Ivermectin
In this interview with Dr John Campbell, Dr William Makis answers this question in detail:
https://youtu.be/QBnT8es28WY&t=1960
at the 32:40 minute mark:
What about side effects at these high doses (of 1mg/kg bodyweight when used for cancer)?
"When first start off immediately at 1mg/kg bodyweight per day - there can be some transient side effects - visual symptoms - but these go away with time - after 1-2 weeks of ivermectin use they do go away"
.
at the 33:40 minute mark:
https://youtu.be/QBnT8es28WY&t=2020
"There have been reports in the literature of Ivermectin being used at 1mg/kg bodyweight - for a year - with no long term side effects"
.
at the 34:00 minute mark:
https://youtu.be/QBnT8es28WY&t=2040
"Now you have to be careful on pushing that to 2mg/kg bodyweight per day - but I have done that with a few patients where the cancer was aggressive (and not reversing fast enough at lower doses)"
"I have had some successes with very aggressive cancers - pancreatic cancer - where he cleared his cancer (NED - no evidence of disease) within a few months at Ivermectin 2mg/kg bodyweight per day - but there you start to get some confusion - more instability on the feet - esp in older patients (may be related to low blood pressure)"
.
at the 34:30 minor mark:
https://youtu.be/QBnT8es28WY&t=2070
"Ivermectin has a half-life of 18 hours - so if you run into some side effects - you stop - and it is out of your system within 2 days"

Dr Allan Landrito and Dr Shankara Chetty testimonial on high dose Ivermectin
This article describes two case mentioned by Dr Allan Landrito and Dr Shankara Chetty - where Ivermectin was given at high doses for cancer. Ivermectin at 2mg/kg bodyweight in one case, and up to 2.4mg/kg bodyweight in the other case - in both cases for months. It also mentions the visual disturbance issue in the first case initially before acclimatization and the issue going away:

High-dose Ivermectin shrinks cancer metastases
by Justus R. Hope MD
Aug 29, 2023
.
“We have achieved one cure already. It’s a case of gallbladder cancer, and as it so happens, she is a doctor herself.”
“I had a chance to meet her on the radio interview. And I told her, “Lenora, Ivermectin has anti-cancer properties. And she asked me how much should I take.” Because she had cancer, but I didn’t know what kind of cancer she had or how terrible her cancer was.
And I said, “The highest you can take, that’s it. There’s no recommendation. Because being a doctor herself, she treated herself. And later on, we learned about what she did.”
Landrito noted she took an extremely high dose for the first few months of 2 mg/kg per day. Although she experienced visual side effects for a few days, they quickly resolved as she grew accustomed to the medication.
The doctor carefully monitored her liver and kidney function tests to ensure no toxicity. Monthly ultrasound scans revealed consistent shrinkage of the tumor. After 14 months, the ultrasound showed a completely normal scan with “no trace of cancer.” Creatinine and SGPT testing remained normal throughout the high-dose Ivermectin course of therapy.
.
He has seen other patients with metastatic cancer transform from pain-ridden invalids to carefree and active family members.
He relates the case of Oscar Nacu, a man with a grotesque neck tumor involving canon-ball lung metastases. After three months of high dose Ivermectin exceeding 2.4 mg/kg per day, the lung metastases shrank, and he no longer required pain medication. In addition, he walked up to one mile daily and spontaneously sang and danced.
Dr. Shankara Chetty explained, “Ever since we’ve given him the Lactoferrin and Ivermectin, he no longer takes painkillers. If you will notice, he actually looks younger now than when we started. We still don’t have a cure, but we have a fellow that has been taking Ivermectin since August 29, and he is now at 2.45 mg/kg per day and is still not showing signs of overdosing. And the last I heard was that yesterday he was singing, and he was dancing.”

Vitamin D levels
For example many oncologists do not emphasize keeping Vitamin D levels high.
Dr Angus Dalgleish (Britain's leading oncology professor) on Dr John Campbell program - explains how maintaining high Vitamin D levels has benefits for cancer - which dwarfs some blockbuster chemotherapy treatments - Dr Angus Dalgleish Wikipedia page:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angus_Dalgleish

The dying officer treated for cancer with baking soda
19 January 2017
.
>Since 2005 he has brought more than 80 terminally ill patients to stay at his ranch for months at a time. Treatment has included intravenous infusions of an alkaline solution of sodium bicarbonate - the same Arm and Hammer stuff you stick in your fridge to absorb smells.
>This was the "healing programme" that was being sold to Naima.

.
Yet this paper indicates it improves the effectiveness of a conventional therapy when combined with sodium bicarbonate (to reduce acidity level around a tumor):

Does Baking Soda Function as a Magic Bullet for Patients With Cancer? A Mini Review

>Transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) ..
>However, according to a systematic review of 14 randomized clinical trials,2 the objective response rate (ORR) of this procedure is only 35% (range = 16% to 61%).
>
>Chao et al added 5% sodium bicarbonate to the cytotoxic drugs (doxorubicin or oxaliplatin) and then performed chemoembolization, which is described as targeting intratumor lactic acidosis–TACE (TILA-TACE). Amazingly, 100% of patients treated with this modified TACE procedure achieved complete or partial remission.

Social media where you can post about metabolic and Fenben/IVM/Mebendazole
There is heavy censorship on social media on alternatives to conventional chemo/radiation - you will be perma-banned on r/cancer and other sub-reddits devoted to cancer.
However, some forums do exists where you can discuss these treatments
.
Sub-reddits of which I am one of the moderators:
r/cancer_metabolic - https://www.reddit.com/r/cancer_metabolic
r/ivermectin - https://old.reddit.com/r/ivermectin
.
This sub-reddit encourages posts on Dr Thomas Seyfried and the metabolic approach:
r/Keto4Cancer - https://www.reddit.com/r/Keto4Cancer
.
This sub-reddit encourages posts on Dr Thomas Seyfried and the metabolic approach - and covers Jane McLelland and her book "How to Starve Cancer":
r/StarvingCancer - https://www.reddit.com/r/StarvingCancer

In addition there are Facebook forums - for example this one run by Joe Tippens (these Facebook groups are usually private - so you will have to contact the moderators there to get approved to view and comment on those forums):

Solid.
Just read "Cancer Care" by Marik. Really nice breakdown of repurposed drugs and supplements. Sadly, I have a whole shelf on cancer books. This is a favorite.
Hi, Dr Campbell:
My husband (72yrs old) has Prostate Cancer which in November 2024 advanced to pelvic blade bone and Seminal Vestical PSA 9.4 (After first biopsy and treatment CyberKnife in 2020).
He’s doing traditional radiation and hormone castration, intermittent fasting and cancer keto diet. He is also a patient of Dr William Makis taking Ivermectin & Fenbenzadol, etc, protocol since January 14, 2025.
We and Drs feel biopsy metastasized from 2020 biopsy. Therefore, we did NOT do biopsy this time-2025!
February 24, 2025 PSA .28 (down).
We have not been involved with any protocol(s) long enough to have an effect. Looking to have scan done at 6 months, around August 2025.
Very concerned about metastasis and plan to take Ivermectin (periodically) and intermittent fasting along with low carb diet-no pizza, no bun on burgers the rest of his life.
Love and admire your work. Very effective using two camera angles in videos, too!👍
Thank you,
Deanna
