Knockout By Suzanne Somers

If you thought cancer can’t be cured… think again. This book is phenomenal. I personally feel it is long overdue. A cancer diagnosis is something most everyone fears. It is a most dreadful time in life. You’re vulnerable. This is when the system takes advantage of you. People need choices. People need alternatives. It is about survival. The statistics of who will get cancer in their lifetimes are astounding. So, where do we turn? What do we do?

We start by reading this book. Suzanne Somers does a phenomenal job once again bringing important information to light. Contained within this book are interviews from some of the foremost thinking, ahead of our time physicians. These physicians were trained as every other medical doctor in this country. They were taught the same things, went to the same schools. The ability these physicians possess, however, is the ability to recognize a problem and think outside the box for the solution. It is stated in the book by almost every physician that they were experiencing issues of disappointment at their patients not getting better. They noticed that the allopathic medical approach must be severely lacking in something because the survival rate of patients inflicted with cancer is dismal.

I was amazed by the insight, knowledge, and brilliance of these doctors. I am grateful for their wisdom and endurance. Many of these physicians have been persecuted, demoralized, and laughed at, but the one thing they have that many conventional oncologists don’t is patients who are getting better. This is what keeps these doctors going. Their very lives are at peril at times. There are groups who don’t want this information out there because after all, cancer is a multibillion dollar business.

An aspect of the book that I truly enjoyed was the point of finding a cure. By cure what conventional medicine really means is some new drug. When will they ever realize the body must be treated as a whole because that is how it operates; a whole. The body can heal itself. Cancer is no different. The truth is cancer cures exist. It will be a battle to have this knowledge widespread, however. Think of all the money that goes towards finding a “cure.” Buy this pink ribbon item, race for this cause, all in the name to find a cure. Lots of money. And do you know where that money goes? Right to the drug companies! Drug companies that already charge an arm and a leg for their toxic chemotherapeutic drugs. As if cancer victims aren’t already taken enough advantage of.

Now on to the subject of chemotherapy, which this book does an amazing job explaining. The stance of the book is if you’re going to go the chemotherapy route; fine. There’s even a whole chapter devoted to how to build up your body and immune system if you feel most comfortable going that route. A patient has to believe in their treatment to get better; a topic also widely covered in this book. If you do choose chemotherapy, then know this; chemotherapy drugs are toxic substances designed to poison the body in an effort to kill the cancer cells. It’s like poisoning the cancer out of the body. It harms healthy cells as well as cancerous ones. It doesn’t put the body in proper balance nor does it create health. This is why people deserve to know the truth. People deserve a choice. Cancer is not a random affliction as is a common myth. It’s not just a luck of the draw, something you can’t help. Cancer can even be prevented. Oh yes, it can! The book covers this in tremendous detail as well. So the point is, if one happens to “get” cancer, they probably weren’t living as healthfully as they should have been. There is most certainly room for improvement so to speak, and the first thing to do would be to build up the body, build up the immune system, not tear it down with more toxins. We know many toxins that actually cause cancer. This is one of the many reasons patients don’t get well with chemotherapy, radiation, or surgery. All these things cause the body to be so sick and out of balance that there’s nothing left for the body to use to fight off the cancerous cells.

One astounding piece of research the books uncovers is the fact that cancer can actually be spread by the surgery utilized to remove a tumor. The thought is to cut out a tumor so there will be no more cancer in the body. It seems when we mess with nature, however, bad things start to happen. Cutting out a tumor is such an outside-in approach. It doesn’t cure anything. It doesn’t cause the conditions in which the cancer was allowed to develop in the first place to be corrected. Now, we come to find it can even cause the cancer to metastasize! Incredible.

There is so much insight in this book on everything pertaining to cancer. I loved all the tidbits of information as each doctor shared their knowledge. There’s so much about nutrition, detoxification, and health in general. I feel this should be a read for everyone, but undoubtedly an essential for someone who has cancer. It just might save your life.
