Cancer diagnoses continue to rise. IMA Chief Scientific Officer Dr. Paul Marik and Senior Fellow Dr. Mollie James discuss cancer diagnoses, recurrence, and the research to help explain the trend.
The contributions of Dr. Marik (and team), James, and Hope mark a pivotal moment in the fight against cancer. The progress they have achieved in deepening our understanding of the disease is already far beyond what the traditional medical system has accomplished over the past half-century—a remarkable feat, especially considering the ongoing funding that research typically receives. This is truly an exciting time for both patients and providers!
Regarding parasites, I agree, but we still lack a complete understanding of their relationship with cancer. While it’s true that some tumors have been found with co-infections, this is not universally the case. I wonder if prior infection, combined with vaccination, might deplete the immune system’s anticancer defenses.
Interestingly, I’ve observed that every neuroendocrine tumor I’ve encountered seems to be associated with some unusual infection years before diagnosis.
I'll bite. I had a pituitary adenoma removed in December 2023, possibly aggravated by low-level SSRI use. There is a neuroendocrine tumor. You think there may have been a prior serious infection? I had COVID-like symptoms in September 2022 (tested negative, never took jab). The tumor was imaged for the first time in February 2023.
I don't know. We know the spike protein in all its forms seems to promote cancers. The most interesting case was a young healthy guy who developed a weird cellulitis after swimming with elephants in Thailand, then a subsequent NET. Notably, the association can be found in case reports, but I suspect its more to do with the immune systems involvement, rather than the offending organism itself. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9507208/?utm_source=perplexity
I agree cancer is not a parasite, but a good case can be made for cancer sometimes being caused by fungi and maybe parasites. Mark Lintern's Cell Suppression Theory of cancer, presented within his book, 'The Cancer Resolution?', contains a lot of evidence and I'd like to hear a direct response from IMA about whether they've read this theory and what they think of it. While it's true that Ivermectin and Fenben etc have anti-cancer properties that have nothing to do with parasites, it's also true that almost every supplement, repurposed drug, and even some cancer drugs like Tamoxifen have anti-fungal properties.
My brother has alpha gal, contracted after a lonestar tick bite. The symptoms are an intense reaction to eating mammalian meat, i.e., nausea, vomiting. He is a big hunter and loves to BBQ, make his own jerky, etc. He was upset at the idea of only being able to eat fish and chicken the rest of his life. The allergist did not have anything to offer. When he got COVID I supplied him with Ivermectin. He subsequently noticed his alpha gal symptoms had abated. He was bitten a second time and took Ivermectin. He basically has been symptom-free and he attributes this to the IVM.

Ever been somewhere exotic and develop a weird infection after?
No. Costco is about as exotic as our lifestyle can handle. :)
Lol!!!!
Great advice on how to improve the quality and quantity of life!
Thank you, Dr. Marik and Dr. James.

I’d never heard that about Tamoxifen.
Regarding tick borne illnesses… is there something to take besides antibiotics? Will ivermectin work?
