Meet the Man Called ‘Crazy’ by Doctors who Cured his Own Colon Cancer
Telling your mainstream medical doctor that you’d like to forfeit chemotherapy and instead adopt an organic lifestyle full of juicing and raw nutrition to treat your own cancer could lead him or her to label you as ‘insane’, but it could also save your life. In the case of one man with stage 3 colon cancer given a 60% chance to live for a maximum of five more years under chemotherapy, he decided to forfeit chemo and venture into a natural health lifestyle only to be more than satisfied 9 years later.
At 26 years of age, Chris faced a nightmare scenario that he simply did not know how to face. After a visit to the oncologist, Chris was diagnosed with stage 3 colon cancer — and it had spread far beyond the colon itself. In addition to carrying a tumor the size of a golf ball in his large intestine that was continuing to grow, Chris’ cancer had spread to his lymph nodes. And it all happened two weeks before Chris was preparing to celebrate Christmas with his family.
This is the point in which mainstream doctors pressure patients into immediate and expensive action, decrying ‘alternative’ therapies as baseless and downright dangerous. For Chris, he faced the exact same scenario. At first, he succumbed to the wishes of the doctor and decided to go in for surgery.

He was then given a 60% chance to experience up to 5 years more of his life, a life which included his wife and children. This is particularly strange as chemotherapy is not generally even used for such cancers, but for whatever reason Chris’ doctor was pursuing it.
At this point, Chris had enough. Doing his own research into the reality behind cancer’s formation and alternative options, Chris told his doctor that he was going to give the route of natural health a chance. A route that puts nutrition and lifestyle far ahead of medical intervention, documenting how nutrition is actually at the heart of virtually all disease.
This was simply unacceptable to Chris’ oncologist, who at one point had told him it really didn’t matter what he ate after his initial surgery (and he was actually served Sloppy Joe after the surgery). Chris was labeled as a nutjob by the doctor, who discounted the natural route as nothing more than a joke. Because after all, diet plays no role in the health of the body, right?
Nine years later, Chris is now alive and healthy with his wife and two daughters thanks to his rigorous natural health lifestyle and raw food diet. His story has been seen by thousands on Youtube, and most recently has gone viral on the GreenMedInfoTV website. In his own words from his blog:
“The human body is intelligently designed to heal itself, and given the proper nutrients and care, it will. Despite what doctors may have told you, you have options. You have the power to transform your health. If I did it, you can too!”
This worked for a close relative of mine, but she underwent the chemo and radiation in addition to changing her diet. The whole ordeal aged her about 15 years, but she's alive and well.
Kudos to NaturalSociety for still allowing anonymous comments; NaturalNews, In5d, and a growing number of other sites DO NOT ALLOW COMMENTARY unless you are signed in to the control grid (google, twitter, facesuck) wake up folks, they are only there to spy on you while you play ego games. Boycott websites (no donations) who do not allow free and anonymous commentary.
Where is the credit given to the Lord who is the giver of Life? You prayed and disregarded the gift of Healing from God as a result of your prayers, but prefer to give the credit to yourself for finding natural juicing and other regimen. Be grateful to your Creator. Our Lord gave you the promptings to research other methods of treatment so you must give thanks and credit to Our Lord for your healing. The Lord heals through various means, divnine healing, through medicine, through surgery, through natural substances, through exercise, etc. Witness your gratefulness to God for healing you with the method of natural substances. Give the thanks to God where it belongs!
Easy Hun. I’m a Christian too and there is no good when you try and cram God down people’s throat. If people want to adopt god into their lives, then let them on their own free will. You cannot give faith to someone, they have to find it on their own.
Realizing it is near impossible for some to leave god out of the discussion,
I think it best if we just discuss what happened to who and how they felt after said
treatment. No one's god tells them to opt for chemical guaranteed death versus a
natural alternative method. Let's leave your god out and let the patient take a bit of
responsibility for his own health/well-being.
Sorry to disappoint your point of view but I can prove it. I was divinely healed of cancer twice….lung and tumor on the head. I have the biopsies before and after extensive prayer to prove it. When my parents where dying, I studied Macrobiotics and it extended my parents lives by a few months but with no quality of life. That I might add was before I grew int he spirit and adopted a healing and deliverance ministry.
There is a book called China Study that tells how people with all types of disease are cured by juicing and eating a raw diet. There are 1000's of individual stories that are included in this book.
My mother did radioactive treatment for colon cancer she died in 1 year from diagnosis. I will not die from cancer, because I have and use Essiac. And it works!
A friend also cured her cancer with Essiac Tea, juicing organic raw foods, and a few other natural cures. Stay away from Doctors, they are still practicing and have no intention of curing us.
My friend makes Essiac tea with Organic herbs. Here is her recipe: 4 ounces Burdock root, 4 ounces Sheep Sorrel, and 1 ounce Slipery Elm Bark. Make a strong tea and keep the pot covered while it steeps. She keeps the extra in a mason jar wrapped in a brown paper bag in the fridge for a few days. She drank 1 cup 4 times a day.
The Organic herbs can be found at health food stores, sold in bulk. They also sell it already made, but it costs more and who knows if it is really the right herbs? I drink it as a preventative measure.
Amazing story.
Wait, so he had the surgery to remove the tumor?
Yes, usually they remove a tumor but it usually in colon, breast and kidney that it is known to metastasize. Sorry may be incorrect spelling. This means that it can spread to lymph nodes and lead to other cancers in the body.
Lung and brain tumors are a little more harder to remove. You can survive without breasts, live with one kidney and loose some colon. The real killers are the brain, lung, pancreas, blood and bone cancers.
To be diagnosed with any Cancer is tragic especially those so young; and they get younger every year,
The lymph nodes are one of your primary detoxification pathways. It is perfectly natural for cancer to be eliminated there. That certainly does not mean you should cut out your lymph nodes!
I think the surgery was responsible for saving his life. The sloppy Joe had nothing to do with it.
Why is everyone being such a jerk toward the woman who suggested we thank the source of the food itself? Which is Life, whatever you call it? Come on now. The power of faith has also been proven to improve recovery. Don't become the very closed-minded people you deride.
is it my imagination or does this guy look stunningly young for a 34 year old?
just something to think about as well, about the benefits of his diet 🙂
I'm sure you remember Dirk Benedict from the A-Team and the original Battlestar Galactica. He had prostate cancer and healed himself through diet alone. He tells the story in his first book, Confessions of a Kamikaze Cowboy. A good read no matter what your ailment as it's about what you eat keeping you healthy or killing you. And anon, speaking of looking young – DB is 68 and looks about 40. What you eat, drink, and breathe determines your health. God doesn't give you cancer – you have to do that yourself. Happy Trails.
Being a skeptic, I can’t overlook the fact that he did have the surgery. Perhaps that helped in his recovery?
But it is said that there is always some cancer that remains after surgery or radiation, and the remaining cancer will come back even stronger, eventually, in many cases, unless a person does truly heal, and this I believe will be a matter of spiritual and lifestyle change, including diet. I have read of much healing through a raw food diet. Raw foods are alive with engymes and energy to heal you; cooked foods are dead and take energy to digest them. I read years ago that cancer in a petri dish with cooked food thrived, but in a dish with raw food it died. There is a site, anoasisforhealing.com, that explains more about this. There is a lot of information out there on this, actually, if you pursue a search.
The cancer had spread wider than the tumour site. Many of us know first hand how aggressively cancer spreads. I don't believe in miracles, so I don't doubt for a second that this man's dietary change was the main if not the sole factor in his recovery.
Pay attention to what you eat!! I sneezed all night and woke with a bad headache. I thought it was allergy. In the next week the headache got worse and I was taking more pain relievers. Lymph nodes swelled and my jaw stiffened. I thought it was an infection, would wait for it to go away. Soon I couldn't sleep more than 2 hours without waking for a pain pill. In the next 2 weeks I couldn't eat because my jaw was locked so that my teeth didn't match. Went to the chiropractor for a neck adjustment, didn't help. Finally went to a doctor thinking my blood pressure was high. It was very high and she gave me a prescription. That didn't help and I was nearing a collapse, taking 12 -14 pain pills a day. I searched my memory for what could be different about the foods I consumed every day and found a match with the date of the onset. I had changed brands of artificial sweetners, going for a stevia product. Stevia is 300 times sweeter than sugar so there was obviously lots of chemical fillers in the envelope. After ceasing to use it I got slowly better but it took 4 full weeks to recover.
It seems like its harder to quit bad eating habits than to quit smoking. Nowadays food is a strong drug, and it kills you, but not before emptying your pokets. The system works perfect for big companies, not you.
I think this story has a lot of encouragement for cancer patients. I am a stage 3C cancer survivor. I was diagnosed five years ago. I did receive chemotherapy but ended it after just half of the recommended treatments. Mentally, I could no longer handle the toxic influx which made me sick and depressed. Alongside the chemotherapy, I adopted the kind of lifestyle described on this video. Today, I am in my mid-fifties and feeling very well. There is no sign of cancer in my body. I encourage everyone to live an anti-cancer lifestyle. The rewards are incredible.
Congratulations. This is wonderful! Keep spreading the word. Thanks for sharing your story.
Jaqueleen I agree with you 100%. God is in charge of all of us even if you believe in him or not. I blame all bad on the Devil. He is working hard to make everyone turn against God. He is succeeding at the moment, but one day will be destroyed along with all the other evil people in this world. If you believe in him like I do you are blessed. I feel sorry for all those who don't. They are on the wrong path and will one day regret it. And I really don't give a crap if they disagree with me. So don't waste your time writing negative comments. I'm with Jaqueleen and all those who believe. I think it's great that this man is cured. Good for him.
Hi all my name is chook I’m new here and I have cancer, I saw ricks intervew
and I’m up for any help or advice I can get, right now I’m a man on the edge of insanity I have 4 young children 11 to 4 years and this news of cancer has shatterd my world, well this is my first post and I’ll leave it there for now
The one thing I will add it to janetspillows post the amount of people that would not spend one second in their day to day life talking with god, but as soon as something goes wrong in their lives they ask for gods help funny that hay.
well god blessyou all Chook
My doctors told me in Feb. 2009 that without chemo and radiation I would
only have a year. They also told me I was crazy when I told them no
thanks. I made a whole lot of lifestyle changes, mental, emotional,
physical and spiritual and here I am today, healthier than ever and
still alive while I have watched others with the same kind of cancer die
miserable deaths after years of chemo and radiation.
Congrats! That is amazing! Did you go macrobiotic or what did you do? p.s. I’m newly dx’d papillary carcinoma breast cancer. Thanks for your reply.
If people would just take on some of these healthy habits we would be PREVENTING a lot of disease and cancer! Congrats to the gentleman for taking control of his health and beating this!!!
If you dry stevia leaves and grind them up, that is the most purest form you can get and way better than sugar. We grow our own stevia, take off the leaves, dry them in a dehydrator and grind them up for use in baking, etc. Not processed at all……sugar is highly processed along with every other sweetener there is.
Great documentary on the subject.
I have an attitude of gratitude, mostly in that the relationship I have with my God doesn’t involve Him being a sociopathic narcissist who, after a brief time on earth, condemns the majority of people to eternal torment for questioning or failing to acknowledge His existence. I think you’re confusing Him with the Government, or the hallucinations of one of the more murderous Tribes of Man on the planet.
Ignorance causes illness, especially around those subjects labeled “God’s Will”. Illness is caused by deficiencies, primarily mineral deficiencies. I’ve seen countless miracles among atheists and agnostics (as well as the “faithful”) through diet change, supplementation and spending at least as much time learning how their body works as they would to learn how to repair machinery.
Further, the word translated to mean “satan” in the old testament actually referred to “the evil inherent in man”, a big difference. Just like “Thou shalt not kill.” The original word was murder, not kill. After 4 years of theology, I was ordained in 1975; in 38 years of study I have come to the understanding of how little I Know compared to what I merely Believed. What I do know is God’s Gift to us was, is, and continues to be “Free Will” and the ability to do for yourself. We are His Creation, not His creatures. Figure it out.
I saw Chris and many other doctors on The Truth About Cancer. It was amazing.
As a health practitioner in a natural medicine clinic, I’d like to share our experiences.
1. Patients who have surgery to remove existing tumors have much better outcomes than patients who try to get rid of it all with diet and natural products.
2. Raw diet isn’t the be all and end all. We have some who get very sick over time on a raw diet – they develop gastrointestinal pain and some become emaciated. Because we have seen quite a few patients who did not do well on raw diets (trying them on their own), we do not recommend raw diets.
3. Our patients do best when switching to a diet that limits refined sugars dramatically, increases intake of plant foods dramatically (cooked, lightly cooked and raw), and switch to as many organic foods as possible (based on their financial ability to buy organic.)
BUT BY FAR – people who change diet and lifestyle and who incorporate nutritional products into their health program have far better outcomes with cancer!
You are correct, Jacqueline. Years ago, I thought I had “discovered” the Hulda Clark Method when the owner of health food store sold me “The Cure for All Diseases.” I did not realize it then, but I know now that it was Jesus who somehow put that book in my hands. He has done so much for me, so much for ALL of us, and we don’t know about it, or if we do, we don’t appreciate it.
Jacqueleen’s God is also my God, and your God, if you would only let Him be. You would learn that it “does matter,” and you would be happy. I used to think the way you do, but I don’t any more because of Jesus. I will be forever thankful to Him for saving me.
Correlation does not equal causation. If he didn’t get surgery maybe you could say he “cured” his cancer. But since he did get surgery and he only refused adjuvant chemo since some patients survive with just surgery no such conclusion about curing, except from surgery, can legitimately be claimed.
