I find it ironic how these reports always have to say before you try this it's always good to ask your doctor first. Unfortunately, alot of times doctors are either skeptical or condescending about any treatment that doesn't end in prescribing medication or the expense of proceedures or surgeries.

6th day on a water fasting, incredibly hungry, but determined. This THING in my breast will die first, much, much earlier than me

[HARLEYROSE]

I did this 22 years ago when I had cancer dinner was all steamed green
Veggies
I was also pregnant ...drs wanted to terminate I stayed away from drs and my son is now 21 I'm still here and I still fast all day and only have dinner and don't have any issues

[glenyst]

What always amazes me is that these Doctors are 'surprised' that tending to diet can help get rid of cancer and disease 😇

[JustGods.Podgirl]

It’s true my aunt had cancer and she went on a 40 day and night water ONLY fast and she is healthy as an ox the best decision she ever made God is so good and so faithful

People have fasted for centuries without doctor supervision. I fast on a regular basis. Just finished a 5 day water fast. The benefits are remarkable.

[Coachkarter]

It’s funny she said fasting should never be done without the supervision of a doctor but they don’t tell us to see a doctor before you start drinking alcohol or doing drugs.

It's amazing how many people think they will starve to death if they miss a meal, when in fact I might save you're life. Amazing

[agentagent]

I searched for the fellow reporter Jay Warren in this story who was determined to manage his oral cancer with fasting. He is still a survivor and apparently working and productive.

"Without the supervision of a Doctor" PULEASE!!!! I've been fasting intermittently for the past year, and I feel like a MILLION dollars plus I've lost over 25lbs...

[jacktyleradams]

I was in stage four stomach cancer. I fasted for 92 days and came back from Costa Rica Cancer free.

[johnnywhite]

Groundbreaking? The Bible literally talks about the benefits of fasting over 2000 yrs ago.

[tmf]

one day they will be forced to tell the truth about cancer

[LuckyFourSevens]

So he fasted (stopped eating) by EATING 250 calories? WTF is all that about?
He was on a caloric restriction not fast. Do a propper water fast and your results will be way better.

[lmenascojr]

Figured this out 20 years ago. So did a whole lot of others who had cancer and cured themselves.

[FlowerPower-blqp]

❤ Praying for cancer patients that this really helps them out❤

[PInkW]

“Fasting should NEVER be attempted without the supervision of a dr.”
LoL.
Here is my story.
My dad was really smart. He also thought doctors walked on water. I am a high school drop out.
My dad was 79 and couldn’t stop coughing.
He went to three different “specialists”
He got many drugs
He kept right on coughing.
I said dad every morning drink the juice of a raw lemon on an empty stomach.
3 days later no more cough.

[ledyba]

Jesus was consulting with His Doctor the entire 40 days He was fasting. The Supreme Doctor! We should too ☺️

[EpicWarDog]

This is also how I addressed it when I had my cancer. Now here it is nearly 3 years later and I still follow it to this day. Keep up the great work. God Bless You!

[littlelamb]

Wow. So glad there’s a news channel out there that was willing to report on this! I believe it saves lives and yet the media hushes this kind of thing. Good for these guys!
