Today’s column, seventh in this
series, was not part of the presentation to the College of Integrative
and Alternative Medicine. It is an outgrowth which reinforces belief in
Alternative Medicine that cancer can be cured.
This column brings good tidings all around. First, the Nigerian
gentleman in England who went there in January, in search of a cure for
Stage 4 (terminal) colon cancer which had spread to the liver, one lung
and kidney, should return home in November, a healthier man two months
after he added six herbs to his treatment protocols of chemotherapy and
radiation as described in earlier parts of this series, a scan report
revealed 25 per cent shrinkage of the tumour. Another two months on,
blood markers of the cancer had decreased from 1,400 to 500. The
consultants described his recovery as “unusual” and said he could come
home, and return in February next year for checks. The second case is
that of a gentleman in Nigeria challenged with prostate cancer confirmed
by a biopsy after a PSA (Prostate Sensitive Antigen) reading of over
160 against a normal range of 0 – 4. Last week, within one month of an
aggressive herbal therapy, the PSA fell from 164.7 to 114. He is happy
and hopeful of another crash later next month.
As a reminder, this is the seventh part in the serialisation of the
text of a presentation by FEMI KUSA at the maiden seminar of the College
of Integrative Medicine held at the Water Parks, Toyin Street, Lagos,
on August 1 and2, 2013.
The college was founded to train members
of the National Integrative Medicine Practitioners Association (NIMPA).
Now let me introduce her…
who is she?

raised by parents who embraced healthy nutrition. In her quest for
knowledge, she attended the 41st Cancer Control Society Convention in
California and shares her experience. She enjoys learning, sharing and

When a loved one passed away about five
years ago from complications arising from cancer, I got curious and
started to do a lot of reading and all manner of research on this
dreaded topic. It is so prevalent now that, there is hardly anyone who
does not know someone battling cancer. It is as though if it is on a
rampage. It does not know class or gender.
In my findings, I also realise that
there is very little that conventional doctors do to help, apart from
putting patients through those powerful and mostly toxic drugs used in
chemotherapy.
