Oasis of Hope’s
Apricot Seed Extract Cancer Therapy

The Place for Alternative Cancer

The cyanide released through our apricot seed extract therapy is one of the best killers of malignant cells. This has a double punch. It lowers the cancers resistance to the treatment, and it releases cyanide to kill cancer cells directly.

Doctors at Oasis of Hope have experienced positive results with this therapy since it was first used by Dr. Francisco Contreras senior. These results have encouraged us to continue offering this therapy to our patients. The apricot seed extract is looked at as a therapy that can be combined with additional alternative cancer treatments and/or other anti-tumor agents. This is the appropriate future for this therapy.

At Oasis of Hope, we do not use this treatment as a stand-alone drug. We capitalize on its ability to make tumors more susceptible to other therapies. This is why we have a multifaceted program which includes: chemotherapy, lymphocyte treatment, Vitamin –C therapy, sodium bicarbonate, UV light irradiation, and ozone. By sensitizing the cancer, we are able to avoid using aggressive therapies that can destroy the patient’s quality of life.

It is time for physicians to consider how to use of this therapy in combination with conventional therapies at lower, non-aggressive dosages. The apricot seed extract, combined with vitamin C, can deplete glutathione and cysteine in tumor cells and make it possible to destroy the cancer with integrative cancer therapies.

My Father is the Poster Child for the Apricot Seed Extract Cancer Therapy

The medicinal use of the apricot seed extract has been one of the most controversial alternative cancer therapies of this decade, these have a cyanide radical that neutralize (render harmless) by the rhodanese enzyme in healthy cells; cancer cells, deficient of rhodanese, succumb to the cyanide.

In a number of clinical trials, results seem to skew toward the opinion of whoever is conducting it; individual case studies do point that this therapy has efficacy and safety.

We’ve used the Apricot Seed Extract’s natural and medicinal form, with tens of thousands of patients and consider it an effective adjuvant (but not standalone) cancer therapy.

Apricot Seed Extract Cancer Vaccine FAQs

If this therapy can be so helpful, why aren’t more cancer treatment centers using it?

The first argument is that it can be toxic because it contains cyanide. The second argument is that it doesn’t work. However, no other cancer center in the world has have the opportunity to study this treatment on patients from all over the world that request it, like us, and our analysis shows the contrary and success stories. Of course, there’s always special interest that want to control the sentiment towards this and point the other way.

The only study ever published on the use of this in cancer patients was sponsored by the National Cancer Institute and conducted at the Mayo Clinic and three other prominent oncological centers in the USA. The results were published in The New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) in 1982.

In this article “A clinical trial of Apricot Seed Extract medicinal form in the treatment of human cancer,” Dr. Moertel, the head researcher, reported that of the 178 patients that were accepted in the study “not one patient was cured or even stabilized”.

Furthermore, he said that “several patients experienced symptoms of cyanide toxicity” and that “blood levels of cyanide approaching the lethal range” were reported. “this therapy has had its day in court…” says Moertel and ends authoritatively, “The evidence, beyond reasonable doubt, is that it doesn’t benefit patients with advanced cancer, and there is no reason to believe that it would be any more effective in the earlier stages of the disease.”

What’s disappointing about the article is the editorial bias of the NEJM. Why did the NCI and the Mayo Clinic bypass all scientific protocol? This study had no control group. It was not designed properly and not one of the researchers had any experience with the therapy. The NEJM, in normal conditions, will not publish studies that are not peer reviewed by experts on the subject. There are very few experts in this area, all of which have worked with Dr. Francisco Contreras.

Tumors can become resistant to chemotherapy, radiation or whatever else you throw at it. It would make sense that if you could dismantle the cancer’s defense, you could then take it out, right? And what are the ways that cancer defends it itself?

One way is that tumors encapsulate themselves with blood vessels that are so restricted that antitumor agents can’t get through. Another way is that tumors amass high concentrations of a substance called glutathione.

Glutathione is the element that makes tumors resistant to treatment. So, is there a way to lower the levels of glutathione in tumors so that they would become sensitized to anticancer treatments? The answer is yes. For glutathione to be produced in the cells, it needs another substance called cysteine.

Yes. Cyanide depletes the supply of cysteine.

Cyanide is toxic to our body, but it will not make us sick if taken in very low doses derived from a natural whole food source. For example, you eat cyanide-rich food everyday if you eat apricots, pineapples, apples, or any of the other thousand cyanide-toting foods found in nature.

The cyanide in these foods present in a nutrient that can release cyanide within malignant cells, depleting the supply of cysteine. As a result, the intracellular concentration of glutathione is diminished. This will sensitize the tumors to antitumor treatments including Ozone therapy, Lymphocyte treatments, and high dose vitamin-C.
