Excerpts from "The High pH Therapy for Cancer Tests on Mice and Humans"
Steps Leading to the Formation of Cancer Cells:

1. Glucose can still enter the cell, but oxygen cannot. The cell thus becomes anaerobic.
2. In the absence of oxygen, the glucose undergoes fermentation to lactic acid. The cell pH then drops to 7 and finally down to 6.5.
3. In the acid medium the DNA loses its positive and negative radical sequence. In addition, the amino acids entering the cell are changed. As a consequence, the RNA is changed and the cell completely loses its control mechanism. Chromosomal aberrations may occur.
4. In the acid medium the various cell enzymes are completely changed into very toxic compounds. These toxins kill the cells in the main body of the tumor mass. A tumor therefore consists of a thin layer of rapidly growing cells surrounding the dead mass. The acid toxins leak out from the tumor mass and poison the host. They thus give rise to the pains generally associated with cancer.

Mass spectrographic and isotope studies have shown that potassium, rubidium, and especially cesium are most efficiently taken up by cancer cells. This uptake was enhanced by Vitamins A and C as well as salts of zinc and selenium. The quantity of cesium taken up was sufficient to raise the cell to the 8 pH range, where cell mitosis ceases and the life of the cell is short. Tests on mice fed cesium and rubidium showed marked shrinkage in the tumor masses within 2 weeks. In addition, the mice showed none of the side effects of cancer. Tests have been carried out on over 30 humans. In each case the tumor masses disappeared. Also all pains and effects associated with cancer disappeared within 12 to 36 hours. The more chemotherapy and morphine the patient had taken, the longer the withdrawal period.

Studies of the food intake in areas where the incidences of cancer are very low showed that it met the requirements for the high pH therapy.

Cesium, rubidium and potassium cations (positively charged ions) are all strong electron receptors which can be attracted into the membrane because of the negative potential gradient which exists across all living membranes. Elements below potassium in the Electromotive Series, like calcium, are only taken up sparingly, if at all, by cancer cells. Therefore potassium, which transports glucose, can readily enter cancer cells, but Calcium, which transports oxygen, cannot. Warburg pointed out this anearobic state of cancer cells in 1925. In the normal cell the glucose, upon entering the cell, reacts with the oxygen in the cell and is burned to carbon dioxide and water with the liberation of heat. This heat in turn is absorbed on the membrane surface and raises it to an energized state which permits it to attach more Ca++ ions. Thus it will be seen that the amount of oxygen entering the cell is determined by oxidation within the cell, primarily that of glucose. This action is responsible for the pH control mechanism of the cell which maintains a value near 7.35.

The ready uptake of cesium and rubidium by the cancer cells lead the writer to the High pH therapy. This consists of feeding the patient close to 6 g of Cesium Chloride or Rubidium Chloride per day . It is sufficient however to give rise to the pH in the cancer cells, bringing them up in a few days to the 8 or above where the life of the cell is short. In addition, the presence of Cesium and Rubidium salts in the body fluids neutralizes the acid toxins leaking out of the tumor mass and renders them nontoxic.In tests on mice, tumors implanted where significantly smaller at the end of the test in mice fed Rubidium than the controls. In addition, the test animals were showing none of the adverse effects of having cancer.

Similar experiments with cesium chloride had similar successful results. Many tests on humans have been carried out by H. Nieper in Hannover, Germany and by H. Sartori in Washington, DC. It has been observed that all pains associated with cancer disappear within 12 to 24 hours. In these tests 2 gram doses of Cesium Chloride were administered three times per day after eating. In most cases 5 to 10 grams of Vitamin C and 100,000 units of Vitamin A, along with 50 to 100 mg of zinc, were also administered. Both Nieper and Sartori were also administering nitrilosides in the form of laetrile.

There are good reasons to believe that the laetrile may be more effective than the vitamins in enhancing the pickup of cesium by the cells. In addition to the loss of pains, the physical results are a rapid shrinkage of the tumor masses. The material comprising the tumors is secreted as uric acid in the urine; the uric acid content of the urine increases many fold. About 50% of the patients were pronounced terminal, and were not able to work. Of these, a majority have gone back to work. Two side effects have been observed in some of the patients.

These are first nausea, and the second diarrhea. Both depend upon the general condition of the digestive tract.

There are a number of areas where the incidences of cancer are very low. At the 1978 Stockholm Conference on Food and Cancer it was concluded that there is definitely a connection between the two.The Hopi Indians of Arizona have a very low incidence of cancer: 1 in 1000 as compared to 1 in 4 for the USA as a whole. Analysis of their diet shows that it meets the requirements for the high pH therapy. Hopi food is very high in potassium and exceptionally high in rubidium. Since the soil is volcanic it must also be very rich in cesium.

Some 20 years ago the incidence of cancer among the Pueblo Indians was the same as that for the Hopi Indians, but they have adopted a modern American diet and now have the same cancer rate as the rest of the US. Supermarket foods is essentially lacking rubidium and cesium and low in potassium.

Cancer is virtually unknow among the Hunza of North Pakistan and their diet also meets the requirements of the High pH therapy. They are essentially vegetarians, and are great fruit eaters, eating ordinarily 40 apricots per day; they always eat the kernels, either directly or as a meal. They drink at least 4 liters of mineral spring waters which abound in the area and has been found to be very rich in cesium. Since the soil is volcanic in nature, it must be concluded that it will be rich in Cesium and Rubidium, as well as Potassium.

The Indians of Central America and on the highland of Peru and Equador also have very low incidences of cancer. The soil in these areas is volcanic with fruit in the area very high in rubidium and cesium. Cases have been reliably reported where people with advance inoperable cancer have gone to live with these Indians, and found that all tumor masses disappear within a very few months. Clearly the food there meets the high pH requirements.

Cesium and Rubidium salts, when present in the adjacent fluids, the pH of cancer cells will rise to the point where the life of the cell is short, and that they will also neutralize the acid toxins formed in the tumor mass and render them nontoxic.

In later writing, Dr. Brewer wrote: "The goal of the high pH therapy is the transport of large quantities of Cs+ Rb+ and glucose-free K+ across the membranes of cancer cells.
During high pH therapy, Dr. H. Nieper, M.D., observed a loss of potassium which should be replaced." Two booklets discussing Dr. Brewer's final theories about cesium are available from the Brewer Science Library: "High pH Cancer Therapy with Cesium," and "Cancer Its Nature and a Proposed Treatment,"
