Sylvie Beljanski interviewed by Sheldon Baker
IMCJ: Your father, Dr. Mirko Beljanski, made groundbreaking discoveries about pure compounds and most cancers. Please share how his analysis laid the muse to your work and likewise present an summary of your basis.
Ms. Beljanski: My father was a PhD in molecular biology. His profession centered across the Pasteur Institute in France, the French equal to the NIH within the U.S. He joined the Pasteur Institute in 1951 and stayed with them till the time of his retirement in 1988. He was one of many first scientists to have a look at the atmosphere as a trigger, and as an answer to most cancers. Most significantly for him was to analysis pure compounds that may selectively acknowledge the DNA of most cancers cells and selectively inhibit the expansion of most cancers cells with out touching wholesome cells. He was capable of finding various plant extracts that are doing precisely that. If you have a look at them below the microscope, you possibly can see that they encompass wholesome cells, they usually penetrate solely cancerous cells.
After my father handed away in 1998, I made a decision to begin a not-for-profit 501c3 group in New York and keep on with my father’s legacy. I didn’t need this physique of labor to vanish. I assumed it was simply too necessary and too valuable. The very first thing I wished was to substantiate his work, which means these plant extracts have been capable of destroy totally different sorts of most cancers cells with out touching wholesome cells, and we have been very fortunate to work with Columbia College and Kansas College Medical Heart researching totally different sorts of most cancers cells. We labored on prostate at Columbia, and with ovarian and pancreatic most cancers cells at Kansas College Medical Heart. We have been capable of see that each plant extracts, Pao pereira and Rauwolfia vomitoria, have been certainly capable of inhibit the event of most cancers at totally different levels of most cancers, together with irritation, full-blown most cancers, and superior cancers that don’t reply to chemotherapy or hormonal remedy anymore.
This work was performed as a affirmation by way of the funding of the Beljanski Basis, and we now have been capable of transcend that by understanding the totally different mechanisms of motion and likewise wanting on the synergy of motion with totally different chemotherapies.
IMCJ: You have got a distinguished background, as a French lawyer turned well being advocate, writer, and entrepreneur. You’re devoted to persevering with your loved ones legacy with the Basis and worldwide leaders in well being and environmental analysis. Did any of your small business expertise assist lead you to eager to proceed in your loved ones’s footsteps?
Ms. Beljanski: I adopted the household footsteps as a result of I used to be a lawyer, I grew up in a household of scientists, and I’ve 4 generations of scientists behind me. However I by no means thought I’d get entangled within the enterprise. Because it turned out, my father was prosecuted and persecuted by the French authorities after serving to President Francois Mitterrand who was coping with the unfold of prostate most cancers throughout his second time period. The official docs of the French White Home thought that Mitterrand wouldn’t end his second time period. However Mitterrand had a mistress who knew a few good physician with good outcomes on prostate through the use of my father’s merchandise. Mitterrand took the merchandise and did very nicely. He was certainly capable of end his second time period which at the moment in France was seven years.
After Mitterrand left workplace and handed away, there was a political backlash. A SWAT crew from the French military was despatched to Purple Storm my father’s laboratory. They raided and destroyed him and his analysis.
I used to be not concerned in my father’s analysis. Rising up, I had seen various those who my dad and mom had helped and who turn out to be pals of the household as a result of they’d survived their bouts with most cancers. They credited my dad and mom for that. As a lawyer digging into the authorized file, the extra I understood that this was not about justice. This was about suppressing information that might assist 1000’s of individuals. I mentioned not over my useless physique. I’m going to hold the torch to guarantee that this data and discoveries usually are not going to vanish.
IMCJ: Are you continue to training legislation?
Ms. Beljanski: No. What I’m doing with the Basis is a 100% full-time job. I’ve completely no time and no real interest in training legislation. I really feel that what I’m doing is reaching out to so many extra individuals than I might have ever performed in working in a legislation agency.
IMCJ: Please make clear, you’re not a physician.
Ms. Beljanski: Right. I’m a French lawyer who was infuriated with what the French authorities did, and thus I turned a well being advocate and the founding father of our Basis. I made a decision I’d discover the means to hold on most cancers analysis as a result of I felt it was price it.
IMCJ: Your e-book Profitable the Battle on Most cancers shares a private message about your scientific journey. What impressed you to jot down the e-book and what key message or messages would you like readers to remove?
Ms. Beljanski: I wrote the e-book as a result of I wished to coach. Now that I’ve turn out to be a well being advocate I wished to coach as many individuals as attainable about what I’ve discovered. The e-book is written just like the story of what I went by way of, and I take my reader with me. I share what I discovered alongside the way in which and because the story unfolds so it reads like a novel, however on the similar time I consider it’s extremely instructional and folks will study rather a lot about most cancers analysis and the pure strategy to most cancers.
The e-book is an easy learn and also you don’t want a PhD in science. The top of the e-book contains notes from Dr. Christian Marcowith, an in depth buddy of my father, who was conscious of all his protocols. Protocols for a number of cancers are printed on the finish of the e-book.
IMCJ: To be clear, you haven’t had most cancers.
Ms. Beljanski: No. I take my little plant extracts regularly and to this point so good. I’ve by no means been touched by most cancers.
IMCJ: Within the e-book, you talk about the position of most cancers stem cells and why they’re so necessary within the struggle in opposition to most cancers. How does your analysis efforts deal with this?
Ms. Beljanski: We’ve seen that these little plant extracts are capable of inhibit the expansion of most cancers cells at totally different levels of most cancers and for various cancers. Plainly the last word stage to review was most cancers stem cells. Most cancers stem cells usually are not typically studied as a result of chemotherapies don’t destroy them. So, the oncologist tends to place that below the rug. The issue of stem cells are crucial as a result of they’re regarded as chargeable for recurrence of most cancers and metastasis. We wished to see if these plant extracts that are ready to take action a lot have been capable of destroy most cancers stem cells. We labored with Kansas College Medical Heart on ovarian and pancreatic most cancers stem cells. And positive sufficient, we have been capable of inhibit these most cancers stem cells, each in vitro and in vivo in mice. That led to a scientific publication which is out there on the web site of the Beljanski Basis (www.beljanski.org).
IMCJ: One other key theme in your e-book is integrative drugs and the way sufferers can mix pure and standard therapies for a simpler strategy to most cancers therapy and attainable prevention.
Ms. Beljanski: One of many beauties of the merchandise my father found is they’re selective to cancerous cells, which means no toxicity, and no unwanted effects. They aren’t going to remain within the physique if there are not any cancerous cells, however they’re additionally working synergistically with chemotherapies and radiotherapy. Radiotherapy and chemotherapy will ultimately improve the exercise of these little plant extracts, and that has been documented. We’ve various publications from Kansas College Medical Heart with Pao pereira and Rauwolfia vomitoria displaying the synergy of motion with Gemcitabine and Carboplatine when examined in vitro and in vivo.
IMCJ: With all of the developments in most cancers analysis the place do you see the way forward for pure drugs in oncology? And what position would possibly the Basis play in shifting such therapy ahead.
Ms. Beljanski: Pure remedies have all the time been accessible. Till the nineteenth century, there have been solely pure remedies. Then there was the development of chemistry and it turned the way in which to succeed in out to the mass inhabitants in a approach that pure remedies can’t as a result of there wouldn’t be sufficient plant extract to deal with all the inhabitants. Coming along with chemistry was patent legislation and such legislation supplied the chance to make some huge cash with chemical compounds. That modified the strategy to drugs utterly. Thus, using patented chemical substances turned the mainstream strategy to deal with individuals. It may be reproduceable. After which you’ve the identical molecule given repeatedly and you’ll research this molecule and know what the unwanted effects are, and tips on how to use them to create the very best protocol. Nevertheless, that doesn’t imply that pure compounds would go away. If you happen to have a look at some medicines like Taxol, you see that it began as a pure molecule coming from the bark of the pine, and that it was modified to turn out to be an artificial molecule. They used a pure molecule to determine and create an artificial molecule.
The Beljanski Basis feels that an issue with artificial molecules is that fairly often they turn out to be poisonous in comparison with the pure compound.
IMCJ: Are you seeing any tendencies popping out of most cancers analysis?
Ms. Beljanski: I’ve seen that most cancers analysis has explored a number of approaches that haven’t confirmed very efficient. Initially, there was a powerful concentrate on genomic analysis and gene remedy. This made financial sense as a result of uncommon genetic variations in sure cancers have been categorized as uncommon illnesses, which allowed for sooner FDA approvals, and in the end, extra revenue.
Subsequent, analysis shifted towards combining these approaches with immunotherapy. The problem with immunotherapy, nevertheless, is that it might probably basically burn out the immune system. Whilst you can override your immune response to some extent, this doesn’t deal with the basis explanation for why most cancers developed within the first place, and why it’s persevering with to unfold.
IMCJ: You make a number of references to cash. There’s been some huge cash invested in most cancers analysis by companies, the federal government and personal people. The place does this cash go and is that this cash getting used properly?
Ms. Beljanski: Such cash goes largely to pharmaceutical firms who handle to get NIH grants to develop molecules they promote to the general public by way of hospitals and insurance coverage.
IMCJ: How concerning the adjustments within the administration and Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. as HHS secretary as he tries to Make America Wholesome Once more?
Ms. Beljanski: After we converse concerning the battle on most cancers we see the numbers of most cancers all over the world and in the USA have been rising. We’re removed from having received the battle regardless of the super sum of money which has been thrown on the illness. Subsequently, it’s time to have a look at one other answer. One other strategy to most cancers, and has by no means been performed by pharmaceutical firms, is wanting on the root of what makes us sick within the first place. I hope that Kennedy can have the means and the time to coach Individuals about what makes them sick so individuals shall be empowered to take away causes of illness and reside a more healthy life. As soon as they get higher they won’t have to depend on artificial drugs, no less than as a lot.
IMCJ: Your Basis produces the Integrative Most cancers Convention. Are you able to discuss that occasion?
Ms. Beljanski: The Beljanski Basis is just not solely dedicated to analysis, but additionally to share this analysis by way of our web site, podcasts and occasions akin to our three-day convention. The convention options the most effective audio system on the planet speaking about integrative drugs. It’s open to the general public, so anyone involved with most cancers can attend and might study if a kind of well-known audio system has an strategy that particularly resonates with them. There may be additionally the chance to comply with up with our visitor consultants to ask questions and probably pursue therapy.
IMCJ: With the whole lot you do operating the Basis, you’ve received the complement portion of your small business. Is that a part of the Basis?
Ms. Beljanski: No. It’s completely separate. Maison Beljanski is providing plant extracts that stem from my father’s analysis, plus different dietary supplements that assist promote cleansing, high quality and pure nutritional vitamins.
IMCJ: What’s one of the best ways for readers to study extra about what you need to supply.
Ms. Beljanski: The Basis web site is beljanski.org. For merchandise it’s MaisonBeljanski.com.
