Praying for Mother Mon, 05 May 2008 00:00:00 GMT From all I have read the doctor you are referring to is a highly respected oncologist in Rome. Dr. T. Simoncini (oncologist) http://www.curenaturalicancro.com/index.php On 5/5/2008 Praying for Mother wrote:I saw a report about a doctor in Italy that was having great success on cancer patients with IV treatments of baking soda?!?  Apparently there are a couple of doctors who were trained in Italy who are now doing this in the US.  Does anyone know anything about this or is this yet another snake oil treatment??

Simoncini is a very  highly respected oncologist in Rome. he has help a lot of peole get over cancer. It not another Snake oil treatment it works. I should know as one of my treatments is to take a half spoon of normil Bi-cab baking soda in half a glass of water three times a day. How it works is cancer loves an acid envirerment. So change your ph in your body to a more alkalne envirament and you kill more cancer cells   jcr65566 Sat, 31 May 2008 00:00:00 GMT Our blood pH is regulated by our metabolism and doesn't have a whole lot to do with ingesting bicarbonate through our digestive tracts. It is related to the process of cellular respiration, the laws of chemistry, etc. and is much more complex than simply eating baking soda. Bicarbonate does buffer our systems, which is why people think this makes sense and works, but this is massively oversimplified in terms of human physiology.I'm glad you are doing well, and baking soda certainly won't hurt you, but I doubt it is the cure all some people say. Best of luck with your continued good health. That's a great thing no matter how you get there. tongrenhealer Sat, 14 Jun 2008 00:00:00 GMT
