You Have Wellness Choices –
Can Bees Heal Cancer?

How We Develop the QueenBee Posts:

Every morning I go through emails I receive and posts on my social networks looking for information that will help our readers and clients live a more authentic life, where they have and make choices in keeping with who they are. One of the reasons why John supports this process is that his vision is to help others to be more and, therefore, have more and do more of what they dream of. John has had this kind of support for his dreams for Bee Wild, and he knows it makes all the difference!

When I get information that I can share as is, I often just post these articles to our Facebook Fan Page, Twitter Feed, and Pinterest boards. When the presentations are too “salesy” or need support, I do the research and write a blog post here. The important thing for you to know about this is that we are committed to adding value to your life and supporting you being all you can be.

Can Bees Heal Cancer?

So, this morning when I received an email from the Self-Improvement Newsletter and the main article was about Bees, my antennae perked up! Unfortunately, the piece they published took me to a sales page for products, so I decided to research the notion that bees can heal cancer. This is what I found.

Studies Show Red Propolis Has Significant Healing Power

Propolis is a resin that is used to seal small holes in a bee hive. It’s part of the barrier that the bees make to protect what’s going on inside. There are a huge number of studies that talk about the antimicrobial properties of propolis, and in order to take your wellness decision into your own hands, I heartily recommend that you do some research yourself.

What amazed me, as I did the research, is the number of articles, both scientific and lay, about the healing power of a specific red propolis that is gathered in Brazil. See, for example:

Additionally, on the sales page video for the Self-Improvement Newsletter, the researcher mentioned other studies about pancreatic cancer cells being killed by red propolis. This is significant to me, because only 6% of the people with pancreatic cancer survive with traditional (allopathic) medical treatment.

The Difference between Traditional Medical Treatments
and Alternative Wellness – It’s Personal

Sharing health choice information with you is very personal for me. Both my parents had cancer and opted for traditional medical treatment, even though I gave them alternatives. My Mom had breast cancer, had a mastectomy and chemotherapy. The chemotherapy destroyed her immune system, and she literally picked up every virus, flu, cold, and bug that went around for the eight years after her surgery. In fact, she had had a stomach bug for months before she died, where she vomited every single day. The day before she died, she said she couldn’t stand it any more and wanted to die.

My Dad had asbestos-related lung cancer and had one of his lungs removed with follow-through traditional medical treatment. Within a year of the surgery, he developed bone cancer and died in severe pain and dementia due to calcium poisoning from the bone cancer.

Around the same time, I had a client whose partner had Stage 4 cancer. She asked me for alternatives, and I shared everything I could find in my files. Her partner did the research and chose several alternative therapies and changed her eating and exercise habits. This person is still alive today and only has one tumor left, a very small one on her neck which used to be almost baseball size. But, the important thing here is that her partner is now living a happy life, as if she doesn’t have cancer at all.

What’s Important is that You Have Choices

As Americans, we have been enculturated to believe that doctors are Gods, that the lastest drugs will “cure” us so that we don’t have to change how we treat our bodies, and that the Government cares about our health and knows how to and will protect us. In the West, I believe that doctors are amazing at helping people who have trauma like accidents, car wrecks, and so on. But, doctors’ track records on chronic illnesses in the West are abysmal. We so often negate, because of training and drug company marketing, healing alternatives offered from other countries like China and India. It’s about time we break this cycle, take a look at alternatives, and stop buying into cultural programming.
