The brain is the most important organ in your body. It maintains optimal performance of your body’s systems – down to the operation of every cell and drop of blood.
When a patient hears the term “tumor” in combination with their brain, there is instant panic and fear. Even a benign (non-cancerous) tumor in the brain can interrupt key functions of your central nervous system depending on the location and mass.
A tumor that develops in the brain first is called a primary tumor. 
These can form in the actual brain tissue or near the brain in nerves, the pituitary gland, the pineal gland, or in the membrane casing that covers the brain.
Cancer that begins elsewhere in the body and spreads to the brain is known as secondary or metastatic. This is the most common form of brain cancer and is usually diagnosed in those who have had some form of cancer in the past. Typical cancers that metastasize to the brain most often are breast, colorectal, kidney, lung and melanoma (the most severe form of skin cancer).
Symptoms of a Brain Tumor
- Sudden headaches or changes in your personal headache patterns
- Gradual worsening of severity of headaches
- Steady increase in the number of headaches
- Difficulty with balance, dizziness, or nausea (possibly with vomiting)
- Vision impairment such as blurred sight, double vision, or changes in peripheral vision
- Hearing impairment
- Numbness, lack of mobility, or loss of sensation in limbs
- Confusion or inability to recall common tasks, people, or things
- Changes in personality, behavior, and mood
- Seizures
Top 3 Primary Risk Factors for Brain Cancer
- Age: Your risk for all cancer (including brain cancer) increases as you age. More than 75% of all cancers are diagnosed after the age of 55. However, there are specific types of rare tumors that are exclusive to children.
- Family History: If someone in your family has had a brain tumor, it increases your risk. However, the number of brain tumors linked to family history is miniscule.
- Radiation: Yes, as one of the top three traditional treatments for cancer (along with surgery and chemotherapy), radiation therapy increases your risk of brain cancer. This includes radiation from cell phones!
Naturally, there are other risks that include lifestyle choices (smoking and drinking), environmental pollutants, heavy metal toxicity, severe inflammation and chronic infection.
However, age, family history, and radiation treatments (to “cure” your cancer) are what put you at the highest risk of developing a cancerous tumor in your brain.
Never Lose Hope
Maintaining a healthy lifestyle to prevent disease is the best course of action for total body health. However, if you are diagnosed with brain cancer, consider all your options.
Alternative treatments such as a ketogenic diet, hemp, herbal remedies, hyperthermia, and oxygen therapies (just to name a few) should definitely be considered. Interestingly, these “alternative” therapies have been used for thousands of years, so by definition, they are actually “traditional.”
Traditional treatments for brain cancer depend on where the tumor is located, how large the mass is, and if it can be reached safely. Oncologists rely almost exclusively on the “Big 3” (surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation), despite the fact that radiation is one of the causes of brain cancer. Surprisingly, these “traditional” treatments have been around for less than a century and their success rate is less than 5%, so they should really be referred to as “alternative” treatments.
Complementary/Integrative treatment includes methodology such as acupuncture and meditation to control the side effects of the “Big 3” treatments and have shown excellent results. Cancer immunotherapy is also a cutting edge therapy that you will want to consider if you are diagnosed with brain cancer. Dr. Stanislaw Burzynski has developed an integrative cancer treatment protocol based on the use of peptides called “antineoplastons.” This treatment has proven to be very successful with many types of brain cancer.
It is important to do your homework. Know your body, understand your risks and safeguard yourself in as many ways as possible from all forms of cancer and other serious disease.
Putting prevention techniques in place worldwide would reduce the incidences of cancer by more than half. Big Pharma, Big Agra, and the Cancer Industry do NOT want you to know that. They don’t want you to take care of your body and prevent the majority of cancers through natural methods such as lifestyle changes and diet.
That would affect their profits. We can’t have that now, can we?
We are very appreciative and so thankful to Ty and all the people behind him for what they do. We have learned a lot and are now educated that we have several good options on dealing with the disease. We are not afraid of it anymore. We try to ALWAYS share whatever we receive from TTAC. May God bless you, Ty, and all your staff working with you behind the scenes. Take care.
Thank You So Very Much, Ty and the entire TTAC Family!
The idea that Big Pharma and Big Agriculture profit from our ignorance is appealing to many I guess. However, if people die earlier deaths because of their existence doesn’t that reduce their profits from those potential consumers? I welcome comments on my question.
Your missing the point that the big Agri tamper with food to increase profits and then big pharma profit from the increase in cancer drug treatments… That the poor souls die early from treatment is by the way as they have already reaped the profits from that persons life… Chemo treatment is a lucrative business even though its effectiveness in my opinion for some cancers is limited
can you let us know which cell phone cover you recommend to prevent radiation from cell phones Thanks!!
Hi Sonya! The cellphone device discussed in the series was developed by Dr. Igor Smirnov and is called MRET.
Where can one get the MRET thing for mobile devices.?

I have brain cancer and I read that essiac tea can cause brain swelling so it is NOT recommended for me.
I have read that too. I have read most natural treatments may cause brain swelling. Is there something you are taking/using/doing that is working for you?
I have practically use Swedish Bitters compress to help to get rid of pain at the head. I remembered many years ago, a young girl at the age of 10 , very often she had headache and fainted unconsciously . There was nothing that can be done to wake her up immediately. Finally when the Swedish Bitters was compressed on the forehead, the following day, there was a patch of blue black appeared in the forehead . Continuously repeated the compressed and added some supplements, the child is now normal. This blue black showed she had a fell from a baby chair when she was 6 months old, confirmed by the parents. The forehead bone got dented cause the blockaged of the blood circulation.
I came across another child, who complained of headache very often. The parents took the child to a Specialist hospital for a check up. The doctor suspected the eye of the child have problem and link to the brain. Then a CT scan, and MRI was done, results was normal. Then it should be the nerve problems. I just recommend the child to do a Swedish Bitters compressed on the area of the forehead and cheek bone. After two applications, the child does not complained of any headache until now.
I conclude that the both cases was due to unknown fall when not treated, the clots blood blockage of the nerves. Rather it is said the child suffering from infringement syndrome.
You may try this method when ever a child has a fall, don’t wait until the blockage causes more problem.
You mention the use of Essiac tea for brain cancer in this article. But you had an article about Essiac tea previously, “Why Essiac Tea Should be Part of Your Cancer Fighting Program” (https://thetruthaboutcancer.com/essiac-tea-cancer-fighting/) that noted it can’t be used for brain cancer as it may cause swelling of the brain? That article by Dr. Jockers says “Essiac tea is not recommended for brain cancer patients as it may induce swelling, which could be life-threatening if it creates too much pressure in the cerebral cavity.” Seems like a really important detail to mention here…could be dangerous if Ty’s article is not corrected and people try it. Can you have Ty double check on that? Thanks
Hi Babs, Thank you very much for pointing out Dr. Jockers comments regarding Essiac tea and brain cancer. So that there is no confusion we have updated that sentence. We always recommend that cancer patients work with a qualified healthcare practitioner who understands their particular health situation and can advise on appropriate treatment options. Certainly not every natural/alternative therapy is appropriate for every type of cancer.
I have Tuberous Schlerosis Complex and the main concern is a giant cell astercytoma being followed by a neurosurgeon. My main symptoms are partial seizures. There is also an underlying mood disorder and big pharma is trying to balance everything but it is not easy. What can I do now?
DO you reccomend essaic tea for melanoma of te choroid, retina? Thnx
Hi can you please help? My sister in law has just been diagnosed with a brain tumour. She had surgery, they didn’t get all of the tumour and was then told she only has fifteen months. She got oil from The Lions Garden and just wondering if this is the correct type to use? It has 3.6mg of CBD and14.7 THC 1.13 of other cannabinol. 61.1mg total cannabinol oils. I would be verythank you for any help.
Hello, Margaret!
We are sorry to hear about the diagnosis your sister in law received.
Unfortunately, we are unable to give any kind of medical advice. The best advice we can give is to consult with one of the doctors we interviewed in the Global series. Please note that we are not able to select an expert from the list.
Here’s the link to the actual webpage:

Sending thoughts and prayer for hope and healing!
Because of a TTAC video, we found Dr. Leigh Connealy in Irvine, CA 4 1/2 years ago and my husband was able to book an appt. immediately and has been her patient ever since. She is an amazing Dr. and I highly recommend her and her entire staff. He had throat cancer and opted for surgical removal only, no chemo or radiation so Dr. C was thrilled to get him before his immune system was compromised. He’s now almost 82, feels great and has followed an alternative protocol since being diagnosed in March of 2013 with supplements, morning Budwig, ozone and Vit. C infusions and his SOT which is Dr. Connealy’s specialty. We are so grateful to Ty, Bill Henderson and all the people who contribute to real healing.
