Dr. Johanna Budwig’s Healing Diet & Protocol
Omega 3 fatty acids and malignant fibrous
histiocytoma of the lung
While Dr. Johanna Budwig did not advocate the use of fish (or cod liver) oil and preferred flax oil as the prime source of omega 3 fatty
acids (see Budwig diet & protocol: tips & frequently asked questions [6] for the reason why), the following successful case study reporting the healing of malignant fibrous histiocytoma of the lung is included
here since it supports Dr. Budwig’s (and others’) thesis of the healing power of the ingestion of the right type of fats.
Lung Cancer & Omega 3 fatty acids (EPA & DHA): healing of
malignant fibrous histiocytoma* (MFH) of the lung

Copyright Notice
The Journal "Nutrition & Cancer" recently (in volume 52, 2005, pp. 121-29) published a remarkable case study:
A 78 year old male was diagnosed with malignant fibrous histiocytoma with multiple lesions in both of his lungs. The patient
refused the proposed conventional chemotherapy and chose a nutritional approach instead. Centered around an increased omega-3 fatty acids consumption while decreasing ingestion of omega-6 fatty
acids, his daily dietary intake was estimated at 15 g of the long-chain omega-3 fatty acids eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), with a ratio of linoleic acid (omega 6)
to long-chain omega-3 fatty acids of 0.81.
Result: Slowly but consistently, the bilateral nodules decreased in number and size as revealed by pulmonary x-rays and serial
computed tomography scans. No side effects from the ingestion of large quantities of fish & algae oils rich in EPA and DHA could be observed, and the patient continues to show no symptoms of cancer.
* A soft tissue sarcoma that usually occurs in the limbs, most commonly the legs,
and may also occur in the abdomen. Also called malignant fibrous cytoma.
Addendum by Healing Cancer Naturally
Personally I don’t advocate the ingestion of fish/cod liver oil or any other foods based
on the suffering of more highly evolved animal life forms, both for ethical and health reasons. Compare Vegetarians live longer.

The flaxoil/cottage cheese or quark mixture is indeed one of the backbones of Dr.
Johanna Budwig’s natural healing protocol for cancer and other degenerative disease. But compare Is the Budwig Protocol “just flaxseed oil and cottage cheese”?
