Budwig Flax Oil Diet
listed in essential fatty acids, originally published in issue 60 - January 2001
Science has proven that fats play an important role in the functioning of the entire body. To function efficiently, cells require true polyunsaturated, live electron-rich lipids, present in abundance in raw flaxseed oil.

Daily Plan
Before breakfast – a glass of Acidophilus milk or Sauerkraut juice is taken.
Breakfast – Muesli (regular cereal) is overlaid with two tablespoons (30ml) of flax oil and honey and fresh fruit according to season, e.g. berries, cherries, apricots, peaches, grated apple. Vary the flavour from day to day. Use any nuts except peanuts! Herbal teas as desired or black tea. A 4oz (120g) serving of 'the spread'(directions below). This is fine to eat 'straight', like a custard, or add it to other foods taken in the day as you will see.
Morning tea (10am) – A glass of fresh carrot, apple, celery, or beet-apple juice is taken.
Lunch – Raw salad with yoghurt-flax oil mayonnaise (directions below).
In addition to 'greens' salads, use grated turnips, carrots, kohlrabi, radishes, sauerkraut or cauliflower. A fine powder of horseradish, chives or parsley may be added for flavour.
Cooked meal course – Steamed vegetables, potatoes, or such grains as rice, buckwheat or millet may be served. To these add either 'the spread' or 'the mayo' for flavour and to up your intake of flax oil. Also mix 'the spread' with potatoes for an especially hearty meal. Add caraway, chives, parsley or other herbs.
Dessert – Mix fresh fruit other than those used for breakfast with 'the spread', this time (instead of honey), flavoured using cream of lemon, vanilla or berries.
Afternoon tea (4pm) – A small glass of natural wine (no preservatives) or champagne or fresh fruit juice with 1-2 tablespoons of honey-coated flax seeds.
Supper – Have this early, at 6pm. Make a hot meal using buckwheat, oat or soy cakes. Grits from buckwheat are the very best and can be placed in a vegetable soup, or in a more solid form of cakes with herbal sauce. Sweet sauces and soups can always be given far more healing energy by adding 'the spread'. Only honey or grape juice can be used for sweeteners. No white sugar (or brown!). Only freshly squeezed juices and not reconstituted juices (preservative danger) may be used. These must be completely natural.
"If only all patients had a PhD in biochemistry and quantum physics to enable them to see how with such consummate skill this diet was put together. It is a wonder. The champagne vehicle is easier to assimilate and get someone almost on his or her deathbed going again. A retention enema of 250ml (8.5oz) of oil is another route to get this precious life furthering, electron-rich oil into the body. It can also be applied to the skin for transdermal absorption."[1]
In 1967, Dr Budwig broadcast the following sentence during an interview over the South German radio network, describing her incoming patients with failed operations and x-ray therapy:
"Even in these cases it is possible to restore health in a few months at most, I would truly say 90% of the time.
"This has never been contradicted, but this knowledge has been a long time reaching this side of the ocean, hasn't it?
"May those of you who have suffered from this disease (and I include your family and friends in this) forgive the miscreants who have kept this simple information from reaching you for so long."[1]
Flax seeds may also be used. Seeds need only be cracked in a food blender, or they may be ground in a coffee grinder. One needs three times the amount of seed to get the oil equivalent. Seeds are high in calories, so one may gain weight. The seeds are also high in soluble fibre, so blending with liquid tends to produce ever-hardening 'jellies'. Fresh-cracked seed sprinkled on muesli and eaten promptly tastes great.
Ed McCabe[2] discusses his point of view on essential fatty acids:
"The red blood cells in the lungs give up carbon dioxide and take on oxygen. They are then transported to the cell site via the blood vessels, where, they release their oxygen into the plasma. This released oxygen is 'attracted' to the cells by the 'resonance' of the 'pi-electron' oxidation-enhancing fatty acids. Otherwise, oxygen cannot work its way into the cell. 'Electron rich fatty acids' play the decisive role in respiratory enzymes, which are the basis of cell oxidation…"
"Don't eat anything hydrogenated (like margarine, or fried foods) as it defeats oxygenation. Avoid products that say 'hydrogenated'."
"We should eat essential polyunsaturated fatty acids to enhance oxygenation. They can be found naturally in carotene, saffron, and flaxseed oil."

Editor's Note
It is vital to bear in mind that, to date, there is no universal cancer cure. Patients and researchers alike should inform themselves of the various treatment options for this highly complex constellation of cancer types, and proceed, with the help of their physicians, along the most appropriate treatment route(s).

My husband was diagnosed with non hodgekins lymphoma in 2005, at age 55, stage 4. knowing conventional medicine was a likely death sentence, he explored first a raw foods diet. This was effective for a time, but the tumors re appeared, even more threatening. Serendipitously, he discovered the Budwig Protocal, with truly spectacular results. Even his doctors (reluctantly) are amazed. His blood tests are consistantly 'cancer free'. We run a no kill shelter for abandoned dogs, recently using the protocal on sick dogs with amazing results also. (Budwig indicated this therapy even more effective for animals). I would be especially grateful to confer with you on your thoughts about the use of Budwig on Dogs with cancer as I know it truly works, within obvious limits.

I am particularly interested in speaking with you about Budwig for pets.
Thank you in advance;
