A Study to Evaluate the Effect of Far Infrared Radiation for Cancer Treatment
August 14, 2009 updated by: GAAD Medical Research Institute Inc.
Phase 1 Study to Evaluate the Efficacy of Using Energy Specific Far Infrared Radiation for Cancer Treatment
Cancer is the number one killer in Canada and in most countries of the world.
The investigators' initial assessment indicates that far infrared radiation has the potential to cure cancer.
Study Overview
Detailed Description
The investigators have identified a combination of methods for possible cancer treatment as follows:
- Energy specific far infrared radiation (5 μm to 20 μm ). No x-rays, gamma rays etc. are used.
- Oxygenation of the body cells
- pH balance
- Lifestyle changes, or
- A combination of chemotherapy and (1), (2), (3) and (4) above.
