Integrative Cancer Solutions with Dr. Karlfeldt

A lot of cancer patients have already lost before treatments even begin. No matter the treatment, no matter how fast medical response comes, if the patient has already given up on life, cancer has already won. Ivelisse Page had an interesting journey that led her to this realization. Ivelisse was diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer at the age of 37. Belonging to a family with a history of this dis...

“You must be insane!!!”, is the initial reaction of any sane mind when they’re told to accept cancer. Because how else can you view cancer other than a death sentence? It doesn’t help when a cancer patient comes from a childhood of abuse, much like Carl Mason. To people like Carl, being dealt the Cancer Card, after a series of trials in life, is nothing short of cruel. Carl was diagnosed with Stag...

Gifts don’t always come when we need them. Sometimes, they’re already there… We just don’t know it yet! Bridget Picard has always valued vitamins, supplements, essential oils, healthy foods, among other natural resources – readily available on the market – but she saw them in a different (even more positive) light after Christmas day. Prior the holidays, Bridget was already suffering from what she...

Our NEEDS are NOT always congruent with our WANTS. Here in the Karlfeldt Center, we highly encourage our patients’ active participation in their respective treatment plans. However, problems arise when patients start suffering from “Tunnel Vision” … Opting only for one part of a combination therapy because that’s the “least expensive” or “least painful”, among other personal considerations. You ha...

Deep down, YOU know your body BEST! And we can’t stress enough how much YOU need to be INVOLVED in your Cancer Care. The race car driver tells the pit crew what s/he needs to win the race. All the crew does is outfit the car with the correct specs. Just the same... A hairdresser can suggest the “best look” for you, but ultimately, you get to decide what style you’re most comfortable with – because...

Who would have thought that there’d be something scarier than cancer? Doctors and other medical professionals still have ways to go before finally understanding the totality of cancer. But at the very least, they’ve got some idea(s) about cancer…which is very much UNLIKE Covid – totally new problem to the world! For something so new and unknown to vastly “terrorize” the world, cancer just seems so...

It’s one thing to be attacked by foreign bodies, it’s worse to be attacked by those which ought to protect you. Imagine, the white blood cells that are supposed to be protecting you are suddenly acting against you as they grow abnormally and cause tumors throughout your body. It doesn’t feel all that different when the doctor comes in ready to blast you with radiation and all sorts of treatments t...

It’s physicians that are often the worst patients. Not for a lack of education, but rather the more educated they are, the more they’re likely to put aside symptoms by means of rationalization. With so many non-physicians also educating themselves about the health sciences, they too become more likely to fall into the same trap. “Ah, there’s nothing to worry about since I work out”, said Dr. Serge...

Cancer is NOT a Death Sentence! Is this an unpopular opinion? Yes But is there truth to this? Absolutely! Take it from Chris Joseph who was diagnosed with stage 3 pancreatic cancer. Prognosis for this type of cancer is not at all appealing, with 70% of patients (diagnosed with it) not lasting 1 year, and 90% don’t go past 5 years. However, these ridiculous numbers aren’t even the worst things you...

The last thing any cancer patient needs is more stress from complex treatment and recovery plans. After you’ve been told that you’ve contracted a disease that no one 100% understands, and that your life expectancy has been shortened significantly (no matter what your age is), that’s about all the stress you’ll need to fill up a lifetime! At this point, most patients just want to get things over wi...

You’re not the first and probably won’t be the last cancer patient to enter a hospital. Your condition, the kind of cancer you have, might be unique but your case sure isn’t! That’s why it’s so easy for a lot of hospitals and healthcare professionals to write you off. Whether you’re one of the “lucky ones” to fully recover quickly or “ill-fated” to spend more days/months/years in treatment, in the...

Living in fear is no way to live… Because the more we let fear consume us, the less “living” we get to do. Fear per se, is natural. It is neither good nor bad. It can protect us or hinder us. It can keep us safe or bring danger upon us. How we respond to fear is that which causes us harm or healing. One of the greatest fears of humans is that of death. No one chose to be born but many of us choose...

Beyond being a disease, what is cancer? The afflicted often see it as a curse, a punishment, the manifestation of a lifetime’s worth of mistakes, and to some, maybe even divine retribution. To be diagnosed with something that, for the longest time, has no definite remedy or cure, can easily feel like hell on earth. It is painful and debilitating, to the point where all your hope and reason for liv...

The flaw of most cancer treatments is leaving the body in a much weaker state.   Chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery, are among the "mainstream" cancer therapies. These treatments often cause substantial side effects, including (but not limited to) fatigue, anemia, hair loss, nausea, vomiting, and weight loss.   The worst part is that these cancer treatments are still far from being actual soluti...

The best cancer to have is the one you never get! This statement calls upon preventive measures to be the STAR in all people’s lives. Disheartening but true, the reality we live in is that of a society so focused on finding a cure to cancer, that we take for granted our responsibility to prevent it in the first place. Majority of people focus on the tumor, determining the efficacy of therapy based...

Nanomedicine, an offshoot of nanotechnology, refers to highly specific medical intervention at the molecular scale for curing disease. A nanometer is one-billionth of a meter, too small to be seen with a conventional lab microscope. NanoMedicine technology inspired by platelet-derived microparticles (PMPs). PMPs, originally reported by Wolf in the 1960s as ‘platelet dust’, these membrane fragments...

“Why ME? What Did I DO to Deserve This?!” No one deserves to be in pain, at risk of losing the most precious gift that is Life, and yet here we are with so many patients suffering because of Cancer. One such patient is Dr. Madlena Kantscheff! Born and raised in Bulgaria, Dr. Madlena followed her parents’ desires like a good daughter, and pursued a career in dentistry. She earned her degree and bec...

Cancer cells are like zombies. They have lost their purpose and meaning in life, but instead of running for the hills…they keep coming for you. It’s jarring and destructive that way! And, as we strive to find better treatment and prevention strategies, it’s important to acknowledge one indisputable truth: cancer cells are what they are because they could no longer fulfill their purpose. This is wh...

Taking care of your health is crucial, especially during a pandemic. But it's even more important when you've been diagnosed with cancer. But the big question is: How Do You Do That?! Even without cancer, the pandemic has also made life so difficult. The emotional stress alone can be so daunting, what with financial and health concerns at the forefront. Companies are downsizing, people getting ret...

Breast cancer is the number one cancer that kills women. Surgery, chemotherapy and radiation have proved that there needs to be a more comprehensive approach to healing this disease. On this episode of Integrative Cancer Solutions Dr. Michael Karlfeldt interviews 2-time breast cancer conqueror Dr. Veronique Desaulniers, better known as “Dr. V”. She has studied Chiropractic, Bio-Energetics, Meridia...

“If I can make a difference by sharing with the world this information about fighting cancer naturally, it was all worth it.”   Such are the sentiments of Sylvie Beljanski, award winning author of Winning the War on Cancer: The Epic Journey Towards a Natural Cure.   Sylvie, a French lawyer by trade, is a health advocate for holistic medicine, public speaker, author and entrepreneur. She has founde...

“Victorious warriors win first, and then go to war. Defeated warriors go to war first, and then seek to win.” – Sun Tzu (Art of War)   What’s powerful about this thought is that it speaks of VICTORY as a predetermined outcome that is the product of a certain mental state, and NOT a random consequence of the efforts of going to war.   If we consider this idea as a truth applicable to medical practi...

We forget that death comes to us all.   We usually think it’ll come for others but accepting our own mortality is probably the most difficult thing to do.   It’s not that we think we can elude death. It’s that no one wants to think of the end…until the signs come up.   Dr. Pradeep Bansal was diagnosed with ureteral cancer (Sept, 2019). Pain and massive blood discharge during urination prompted him...

When death comes calling, how do you respond?   Do you secretly welcome that knock on your door, exhausted as you are from the struggles of daily life? Or do you slam the door right on death’s face, shouting at the top of your lungs for it to leave you alone else you’ll bring out the big guns?   Needless to say, Viki Zarkin chose the latter when she was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer, and he...

When modern medicine doesn’t have the answers, where do you go? Where do you begin to find answers when even the best medical professionals have no definitive cure for the likes of cancer? Even with today’s medical and technological breakthroughs and innovations, the medical community still has gaps to fill in terms of understanding cancer. Despite many different studies and theories, they’ve yet...
