Hi Joost,
I believe Rod means that the misconception of the Budwig Diet is that it KiLLS cancer when the actual methodology would seem to help the body deal with the cancer on a more equal footing and hopefully the outcome would be the body HEALS. That is the way I took what he wrote to be.

Budwig is a cancer HEALING protocol, not a cancer KILLING protocol. Thei excerpt is taken from Sanda's site:
Dr. Budwig identified the damaging effects of hydrogenated and other denatured fats upon human health and discovered the powerfully healing nature of cold-pressed, liquid flaxseed oil on various degenerative diseases, including cancer. She showed that highly unsaturated flaxseed oil contains electrons and essential fatty acids that can revitalize cells, heal the cell membrane and improve oxygen absorption.
She discovered and proved that the adhesive capacity of sulfurated proteins (found in quark and cottage cheese) bond with highly unsaturated flaxseed oil to render the oil water soluble ¨C making flaxseed oil much more easily absorbed and effectively used by the body¡¯s cells. Additionally important, once bonded with the sulphurated proteins, flaxseed oil becomes bioavailable to the tiniest capillaries, which may have become blocked by damaging, saturated fats.
Dr. Otto Warburg, who was awarded the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine in 1931 for his research on cellular respiration, explained: ¡°The growth of cancer cells is initiated by a relative lack of oxygen. Cancer cannot live in an oxygen-rich environment.¡± Yet, Warburg was unable to find a way to restore oxygen to the cells.
Twenty-one years later, in a paper entitled ¡°On Fat Biology V. Paper Chromatography of Blood Lipoids, the Tumour Problem and Fat Research,¡± Dr. Budwig wrote, ¡°It is basically proven that highly unsaturated fatty acids are the heretofore undiscovered decisive factor in respiratory enzyme function, i.e. constitute the second part of the ¡®equation¡¯ that nobelist Otto Warburg had been unable to find.¡±
It is a common misconception by many.
