How Ayahuasca Cures Cancer

Ayahuasca is a sacred indigenous medicine that works to cure cancer on a metabolic, biological, and spiritual level. This medicine can cure cancer directly or it can be used to get information from the spirit-realm about a cure for cancer. I have used Ayahuasca myself in this way to help me find cures for diseases as well as to heal serious relationship issues. When used with this intention, the results are often surprising, if not sometimes miraculous. If you feel drawn to work with Ayahuasca to cure cancer naturally, contact us at [email protected]. Lydian and I have a small facility northwest of Mexico City where we administer Ayahuasca to treat cancer, to overcome death anxiety and cancer anxiety, and to treat other serious diseases like diabetes.

Ayahuasca is a very bitter substance that is traditionally made with at least two plants, Banisteriopsis caapi and Psychotria viridis. The final brew contains psychoactive substances, but also medicinal agents that specifically help the insulin-producing cells in the pancreas to regrow. In individuals who have liver congestion or gallbladder stones or sludge, Ayahuasca causes the liver and the gallbladder to purge. This clears the common bile duct so that pancreatic juices are not backing up into the pancreas, damaging the insulin-producing cells.

If a person is not producing enough insulin, cells become weak and sick because insulin is needed to shuttle nutrients through the cell membrane to feed the cell. Once insulin levels are restored to normal levels, cells that are sick can again receive nutrients so that they can heal. Meanwhile, Ayahuasca works to restore balance to the autonomic nervous system, releasing trauma, and teaching the mind as a Plant Teacher about the human body and what the body needs in order to heal.

Detailed Introduction

Ayahuasca is an entheogenic brew made from several different possible combinations of herbs. The two most famous are Banisteriopsis caapi and Psychotria viridis (Chacruna). Other plants other than Psychotria viridis may be used instead, but these two herbs represent the iconic herbal combination that was originally used in tribal settings. Often, in many retreat settings, shaman will use cheaper or more accessible herbs in place of the Banisteriopsis caapi. People can still experience good results from the alternative herbs. For example, Peganum harmala can be used in place of Banisteriopsis caapi. Peganum harmala contains harmine, one of the primary medicinal substances used to cure diabetes and also cancer, so this medicinal substance is still present even if your Ayahuascero chooses to make the brew using this particular alternative. But my experience has been that the basic combination treatment using Banisteriopsis caapi and Psychotria viridis is much gentler in terms of the “trip” than using an alternative brew. That could be a pro or a con depending on your situation, but if you’re concerned about taking Ayahuasca for cancer and the kind of trip that you’ll have, the experience of working with Banisteriopsis caapi and Psychotria viridis is like going into a dream state that you can wake from periodically, as needed, to return to the real world. 

 

Ayahuasca is an indigenous medicine used by the Incans and other tribal groups, and its name roughly translates as “vine of the soul”.  The medicines used to make Ayahuasca grow in the Amazon rainforest in South America and the brew has been used as a sacred indigenous medicine by tribal cultures who live there. To these cultures, Ayahuasca is a remedy for all manners of complaints, from physical ailments to mental disorders, emotional problems, and even spiritual dilemmas. More and more people today are taking the Ayahuasca brew to treat medical conditions and to access other, more spiritual states of mind in an effort to heal from disease and past traumas. My personal experience with Ayahuasca is that this is a medicine that you can work with to solve major life problems, overcome seemingly impossible relationship issues, and yes, also heal cancer, diabetes, and even autoimmune disease. 

 

The first time I took Ayahuasca, I had had a fight with my 18 year old daughter who had recently gotten married. She and I had never fought before and I knew that I was doing things to her that my parents had done to me, but I couldn’t seem to stop myself. It just so happened, that a curadera in our city was doing a retreat a few days later and she invited us. This trip set a completely new course for my life and my behavior. I woke early the next morning and I knew what I needed to do and what I needed to say to my daughter. The next day, I went to a temazcal. I was very weepy and messy and the woman sitting next to me asked if I had worked with the Ayahuasca. I said that I had and she said, “So your pain was greater than your fear, then?” I’d never thought of it that way, but this was absolutely a true statement for me. 

 

Ayahuasca contains DMT, a substance that causes people to feel a profound sense of connection to other people and their surroundings along with other powerful hallucinogenic experiences. Traditionally, the Psychotria viridis plant provides the psychoactive DMT component of the Ayahuasca brew, though some shamans may substitute other DMT-containing plants like Mimosa tenuiflora (Tepezcohuite) or Diplopterys cabrerana (Chaliponga) in place of the Psychotria viridis. The Banisteriopsis caapi vine is an MAOI, or monoamine oxidase inhibitor, which allows the DMT to actually become active in the body; this particular vine is always present in the Ayahuasca brew and is considered as the primary plant that is referred to as Ayahuasca. Other powerful plant medicines like Justicia pectoralis, Brugmansia species plants, Nicotiana rustica (Mapache), or a Datura species plant may also be included in the Ayahuasca brew depending on the individual needs of the patient or group.

Ayahuasca is generally administered under the supervision and guidance of an experienced, specialized shaman/ayahuasquero. This person should have had many experiences working with Ayahuasca both themselves and with other people, and almost always takes the ayahuasca brew with the patient(s) so as to "travel" with them on their journey. This is especially true if the newbie is very new to working with Ayahuasca. Because the shaman has worked with Ayahuasca many times, they are familiar with the experiences that people can have while under the influence of this sacred indigenous medicine, and can offer support when needed. The Ayahuasca allows the shaman to connect deeply on other planes of relaity with the other people who have taken the brew. Some shamans in South America may sing icaros, which are traditional songs intended to banish evil spirits, invite positive spirits, and guide the process of healing, or they may incorporate substances like incenses. In Mexico and in certain modern retreat settings, icaros are less common. Florida water, tobacco smoke, or drums can help guide the participants' journey. Though the traditional setting involving icaros can be idyllic, it is also possible to work at home with Ayahuasca, or in any location that’s protected and calibrated for set and setting. Not everyone who wishes to take Ayahuasca can withstand travel to far-away, hard-to-reach places to do Ayahuasca, but this is a plant medicine that wants to work with people. It adapts itself very well to alternative places and times to help people overcome their most pressing problems.

 

While most people prefer to take Ayahuasca with a shaman (either privately or as part of a group), some people do also choose to prepare their own Ayahuasca brew at home. As with any entheogenic or mind-altering substance, it's wise to at the very least have a "sitter" available who can watch over you if you choose to administer this medicine at home, especially if it’s your first time. In the United States, Ayahuasca is considered an illegal substance, but only when it is prepared. Prior to preparation though, when the plants are separate and not combined together yet into the Ayahuasca brew, it is possible order them and then combine them later.

Politics

Ayahuasca is a prohibited substance in the United States where the DEA (Drug Enforcement Administration) has labeled it a Schedule 1 drug. However, people can still get the ingredients separately (at the time of this writing) to cook their own Ayahuasca at home.

While the recreational use of Ayahuasca has been prohibited, there are Brazilian-based churches in the states that have won the right to import and use Ayahuasca in their ceremonies. The SoulQuest Ayahuasca Church of Mother Earth is one of these, and there also are certain other retreat centers throughout the country that have managed to find a special kind of religious loophole that makes it possible for them to administer Ayahuasca legally to patients as a religious sacrament.

Ayahuasca is legal in Brazil where it is being researched to learn more about its ability to cure cancer. One researcher, Eduardo E. Schenberg, believes that Ayahuasca’s healing properties deserve more attention from the scientific community.

Donald M. Topping, PhD published his story in 1998 to describe his experience using Ayahuasca to cure terminal cancer. Ayahuasca was his last hope and it ultimately led to a cure.

Safety and Effectiveness

Schenberg investigated nine cases where patients used Ayahuasca to treat cancer. Of these nine patients, several showed improvements, one case was considered worse, and another was difficult to evaluate. Patients with the following cancer types took the Ayahuasca:     The medicinal effects of Ayahuasca have been attributed to the following substances found in the brew:

  • N, N dimethyltryptamine (DMT)
    • *Beta-carboline allows DMT to interact with certain receptors on cellular membranes that modulate the movement of ions across the membranes. Research indicates that, by modulating ion movement, the DMT may be able to reduce the Warburg effect and rebalance cellular metabolism in cancer cells. In some cases, apoptosis may occur.

  • Harmine
    • *Harmine inhibits the formation of new blood vessels that supply the tumor while reducing the proliferation of tumor cells, and inducing apoptosis.
    • Harmine also causes beta cells in the pancreas to regrow, naturally boosting the body’s natural ability to produce insulin.

  • Tetrahydroharmine
  • Harmaline 

How Ayahuasca Is Administered

Ayahuasca is administered as a tea or decoction. It is typically made of two plants but there are different combinations used. The two most common combinations include Banisteriopsis caapi, which is the actual Ayahuasca vine and an MAOI such as Psychotria viridis, along with one of the following DMT containing plants:  
  • Psychotria viridis
  • Diplopterys cabrerana
  • Mimosa tenuiflora

Possible Negative Effects

Ayahuasca often causes vomiting and diarrhea to purge the liver and gallbladder of toxins. The purge often happens only the first few times a person takes Ayahuasca. Purging the liver and the gallbladder opens the common bile duct that connects these two organs directly to the pancreas. This purge is a big part of the healing process that produces a big change in cancer patients.  Patients who develop any kind of physical reaction to the Ayahuasca often need more doses over time rather than needing to avoid Ayahuasca. When trauma comes to the surface, people can develop additional, new needs that must be addressed. Click here to read my story of how my first dose of Sapito (a frog venom) caused me to develop panic attacks, but also what these panic attacks were made of and how and why they went away to better understand what I’m talking about in regard to the need for more Ayahuasca instead of less if certain symptoms emerge after the initial dose.

Microdosing Ayahuasca

You can microdose Ayahuasca by taking 1/20th to 1/8th of a full dose of the brew. Take the microdose in the evening before bed. Ayahuasca is a dream-herb and sometimes (but not always) it will cause powerful dreams when taken as a microdose.
