A Note of Caution:

Orthomolecular Oncology is concerned that some cancer nutritional practitioners may place an unnecessary economic burden and psychological stress on patients by prescribing a vast array of supplements, at great financial cost - and patients often place unnecessary burdens on themselves. We therefore recommend Dr Quillin's Immunopower as probably the most cost-effective, good quality, therapeutic and easy to take product. Please compare costs and ingredients, before over-complicating your treatment regime! Bear in mind, however, that really cheap supplements may mean compromised quality and dosage.

ImmunoPower is a unique powder form nutritional supplement recently devised by Dr Patrick Quillin to maximise the cancer patient's chances against cancer. It contains everything known to science that affects the course of the disease for the better. Its primary attractions apart from this are ease of consumption and best value for money anywhere available for a comparable regime. It is not cheap. Immunopower currently costs $250, - about £150, - for 15 - 45 days' supply. However, we would agree with Dr Quillin's claim that it is 75% cheaper than buying all the necessary supplements individually.

Dr Quillin has also written a small book on ImmunoPower:

MISO SOUP

Ingredients:

* 1 teaspoon miso paste - many varieties but darkest is the best flavour - "Mugi" Miso

* 2 inch cube of plain or marinated Tofu - (tofu "age" is good - R.R. tofu, Units 1 & 2, Sheepfoot Mill, Malton, North Yorks.) Marinate a sliced-up block at the start of the week, using lime juice, garlic, soy sauce, or other, to taste. Will keep a week. Whole blocks can be frozen.

* 1 teaspoon Marigold Swiss, (low salt variety) vegetable bouillon

* 2/3 inches finely sliced Spring onions

* 2 radishes, sliced wafer thin

* Nori seaweed, torn into flakes, small amount

* If available, Shiitake or Maitake mushrooms (can be brought, dried, at health food shops), otherwise 1 or 2 button mushrooms, sliced

* squeeze of lemon juice

* half inch cube of ginger root, finely sliced - (adds bite and very good for the stomach!)

* 1 clove of garlic, crushed or finely chopped.

Method:

Put teaspoon of Marigold broth and a bowl of boiled water in a small pan with the garlic and Spring onions and bubble for a minute or two, whilst chopping ingredients. Add radishes and mushrooms.

Then put a teaspoon of Miso paste in a soup bowl and blend with a small amount of boiled water (just off boil) to a smooth paste.

Take the pan of broth off boil and add to soup bowl, together with remaining ingredients. Add lemon juice.

* It is important not to boil the Miso itself, as this destroys valuable enzymes.

Leave out any item you don't like, or improvise. But the above is a real health cocktail for daily lunch routine. Follow with salad and fruit, or a more substantial meal, if desired.

SUPER HEALTH BREAKFAST

LOW-DAIRY MUESLI

Ingredients:

* ¹/₂ tablespoon of organic mixed large and ordinary oats

* 2 teaspoons of oatgerm, or soyabran, or oatmeal

* 1 teaspoon of Omega Nutrition Hi-lignans, (ground flaxseed powder)

* Toasted Almonds

* and/or to taste:

Ground Hazelnuts Ground Coconut

Chopped Walnuts Crumbled Pistachio Nuts

Sprinkle of Sesame Seeds Sunflower Seeds

Dried Berries, such as Blueberries, Raspberries, Chopped Prune etc.

Method

Put in a bowl or large goblet. Pour in, so that you get a quarter of an inch of fluid above the cereal, any of the following:

Rice milk, Oat milk, Soya milk, A dash of pure vanilla if liked, Fruit juice, or Water .

Leave in fridge to soak overnight. Excess fluid will be absorbed. The cereal will swell, and the carbohydrates will be partly digested.

To serve, add a whole or half a grated (organic) apple, an optional squeeze of lemon juice and any other fruit to taste: e.g. pear, chopped banana, pineapple, red grapes, strawberries, etc, together with enough plain live yoghurt to make the mixture really creamy, not stodgy, and a dash of cinnamon.

N.B. If you have advanced cancer, either omit the fruit or use very tart fruit, such as slithers of lime, unsweetened blackcurrants, redcurrants, passionfruit, and a green apple, for a low (fruit) sugar version.

The above makes a breakfast which has very high nutritional value, but is good at any time of the day.

DR PATRICK QUILLIN'S DRAGON-SLAYER SHAKE

Ingredients:

4-8 ounces of rice milk or dilute fruit juice, including apple, cranberry, orange, fresh squeezed, juice extracted, etc. Or add twice the specified water to a can of frozen unsweetened concentrated apple juice.

10-15 grams of powdered protein from (listed in order of preference): ImmunoPower, whey, rice, soy, alfalfa, egg white, non-fat yoghurt solids, spirulina, Solgar "Greens and More". Do not use powdered proteins that are based upon non-fat milk solids. Too many people are allergic to this product. Your health food store should have a dozen different products to select from. ProMed is a name brand pure whey protein product.

A combination of Nature's Best's Colon Care, Acidophilus and Eliminease (or equivalent) is vital to maintain regularity and encourage proper detoxification. It should include fibre, a herbal laxative, proper bacteria for colonising the intestines and botanicals for detoxification.

One sliced ripe banana or less, depending on how thick you like your shakes. Banana adds texture via pectin to make this shake have true milkshake viscosity.

2-4 grams of buffered high dose vitamin C powder (available from Higher Nature or Nature's Best, see Suppliers above) that won't upset even the most delicate stomach.

1 tablespoon of Omega Nutrition flaxseed oil or Essential Balance oil from your health food store or mail order (Higher Nature, or Nature's Best, see Suppliers above).

For those who need to slow down weight loss or gain weight, add 2 tablespoons of MCT (medium chain triglyceride) oil from Twin Labs, 001 888 546 5631 (or try UK subsidary Changes International, or coconut butter, if this is not available. Omega Nutrition do a good product.

Directions:

Use a large blender or a small hand held blender, like the ones originally developed to mix diet drinks. First add the oils to coat the bottom of the container for easy mixing and cleaning. Add the powdered ingredients and cut up fruit next. Blend until smooth, or about 15 seconds.
