My dad was just diagnosed with non small cell stage iv lung cancer and I am desperately searching for anything that may help. Please don't send me links to websites for chinese herbs or commercial sites. I really need to know if anybody has had any good results from the cottage cheese/ flax seed oil. There seems to be a lot of positive info out there. I want personal accounts if anybody is currently doing this program.

I'm sorry to hear about your dad. I know how anxious you are to help him, but there's no evidence that any diet, including this one, has any effect on the progress of cancer. People like Johanna Budwig, who devised this diet, make wild and unproven claims and exploit the desperation of vulnerable people. Yes, you will find unsubstantiated testimonials on the internet; but you have no way of knowing if the person ever had cancer, much less that they have been cured. The plural of anecdote is not data. Unlike conventional treatments, this one has not been proven in clinical trials. Anyone who follows Johanna Budwig's recommendations will be investing time, money and hope in something that is not effective, as well consuming quantities of not very enjoyable food. My best wishes to you and your father.

Linseed* oil & cheese doesn't even SOUND like a viable "cure" for anything, does it? Really? Except may constipation? Budwig was a complete fraud. How to tell a fraud from an earnest person? If someone tells you that a little olive oil in your gasoline will improve your mileage, there is a possibility it is true; but if they tell you that it will also stabilize the engine if you put it in the radiator, improve your reception if you rub a little on the antenna, make the seats more comfortable if you rub a little on the leather, and stop your windscreen from shattering if you rub a little on the glass, you should be able to figure out they are trying to sell you olive oil. Budwig calimed her diet cured too many different things for it to have any value. It also makes you wonder why people in the Middle East get cancer, they eat cheese & flaxseed all the time! I'm very sorry your Dad has to go through this, but medicine is the most promising path to recovery.
