Cesium Therapy
Cesium Therapy is a non radioactive alternative cancer treatment that is not approved by the FDA. The use of Cesium first took roots in the 1930's and then became public in the 1980's. This form of treatment has not been thoroughly researched since the 80's and remains as an obscure treatment used in place of mainstream medical treatments. There are high levels of controversy surrounding the practitioners of cesium therapy and the validity of its effect on cancer cells. Cesium therapy works under the assumption that cesium can reverse the low pH found in cancer cells.
History[edit]
During the 1930's German physiologist Otto Heinrich Warburg, 1883 - 1970, discovered that cancer cells lack the ability to take in the oxygen atoms necessary to break down glucose aerobically. Thus his research concluded that cancer cells thrive at acidic pH levels due to the production of lactic acid in the fermentation of glucose.[1]
Dr. Warburg's research is the basis for further research into high pH therapy. During the 1980's Aubrey Keith Brewer, an American physicist found that cancer cells have a high affinity for cesium, rubidium, and potassium. Brewer also discovered that the uptake of cesium or rubidium cause the pH of the cancer cells to rise from the acidic levels described by Dr. Warburg to slightly basic levels. At a basic pH the cancer cell is no longer malignant and the lactic acid is cleared from the cell and the surroundings. Brewer is the first proponent of Cesium as an alternative cancer treatment and funded the research on mice before his death in 1986.[2]
Cesium high pH therapy has not been studied in depth since Brewer's research. This lack of follow up research has caused Cesium therapy to remain as an obscure treatment option to the general public; it has not been approved by the FDA nor is it given by public hospitals. Cancer patients who chose to follow cesium high pH therapy generally undergo self treatment, although there are some clinics that practice cesium therapy.
Clinical Trials[edit]
Tests on mice were carried out by American University using rubidium and in Platteville, WI using Cesium in the 80's. In both occurrences tumors were implanted in mice and allowed to grow. At American University after 13 days of treatment, the tumors in the treated mice weighed only one eleventh of the tumors in the untreated group of mice.
Tests on men were carried out by Dr. H. Sartori in Washington D.C. and Dr. H. Nieper in Hanover, Germany. These clinical trials on terminally ill patients showed a high rate of success and a loss of cancer induced pain within three days of treatment. The patients who did not live long enough to complete treatment showed reduced tumor size upon autopsy. Side effects from these trials were nausea and diarrhea.[3]
Controversy[edit]
The same Dr. Sartori who ran clinical trials on men in Washington D.C. has a long history of abusing terminally ill patients for profit. Soon after Sartori's clinical trials, he had his medical license banned in the U.S. for the use of various alternative medicines including cesium therapy for cancer, ozone therapy for cancer, and DMSO injections for arthritis. Sartori has gone by multiple aliases, but he is known in the U.S. as Dr. Ozone. He has also been banned from entering the country of Australia.
Sartori was arrested in June of 2006 in Thailand for fraud and for practicing medicine without a license.[4]

Physical Evidence Behind Theory[edit]
Several cultures worldwide, one in particular the Hopi Indians in Arizona have a cancer rate of one in one-thousand compared to the USA rate of one in four. These cultures have diets and resources in the soil and water that create a high pH therapy environment. The Hopi Indians have diets rich in potassium and rubidium. Also with volcanic ash mixed in the soil, the food is also rich in cesium.[5]
Other cultures that have high pH therapy oriented diets and low cancer rates include the Pueblo Indians of Arizona, the Hunza of North Pakistan, and Central and South America.
Scientific Theory[edit]
In theory cesium high pH therapy works because of alkali properties of the metal and the physical characteristics which attract less parts per water than other metals such as calcium, sodium, and magnesium. Cancer cells are cells that have been blocked by carcinogens or damaged by other influences such as overexposure to UV light. These cancer cells have damaged membranes which prevent sodium, calcium, and magnesium from entering the cell; these cells are responsible for carrying oxygen atoms into the cell. Once there is a lack of oxygen in the cell but an abundance of glucose, the pH of the cell becomes more acidic as the glucose undergoes anaerobic glycolysis thereby producing lactic acid. Once the pH of the cell has become acidic the cell loses the ability to control its own growth. These acidic and fast-growing cells are now cancer cells.[6]
Cesium is able to enter the damaged cancer cells and carry oxygen pass the cell membrane, due to the lesser amount of parts per water also carried into the cell. The production of lactic acid is stopped by carrying oxygen into the cells, and the alkali properties of cesium raise the pH of the cell to a slightly basic level. At this pH level the immune system is able to recognize the cell as sick and destroys the cancer cells. The waste of the cancer cells is converted to uric acid and disposed of through the body's excretory system.[7]
Known Dangers[edit]
Although the toxicity of cesium is very low, even low dosages can prove fatal without proper supplements. The use of cesium causes large amounts of potassium to leave the bloodstream and enter the cancerous cells. Potassium is necessary for the heart to beat, therefore the use of cesium can cause cardiac arrest if there is not enough potassium in the bloodstream. Without considering the depletion of potassium, the toxic dosage of cesium in the human body is 135 grams of cesium chloride.[8]
