Components of an anticancer diet: dietary recommendations, restrictions and supplements of the Bill Henderson Protocol

The use of complementary and alternative medicines including dietary supplements, herbals and special diets to prevent or treat disease continues to be popular. The following paper provides a description of an alternative dietary approach to the self-management and treatment of cancer, the Bill Henderson Protocol (BHP). This diet encourages daily intake of raw foods, a combination of cottage cheese and flaxseed oil and a number of supplements. Some foods and food groups are restricted (e.g., gluten, meat, dairy). Early background theory that contributed to the protocol’s development is presented as is a summary of relevant evidence concerning the anti-cancer fighting properties of the individual components. Supplement intake is considered in relation to daily recommended intakes. Challenges and risks to protocol adherence are discussed. As with many complementary and alternative interventions, clear evidence of this dietary protocol’s safety and efficacy is lacking. Consumers of this protocol may require guidance on the ability of this protocol to meet their individual nutritional needs.

[Behavior of fat constitutents during refining. 8. Determination of polymeric fatty acids in rape seed oil and their behavior during refining]

1. Studies on rape-seed oil have shown that the determination of oxypolymers by means of the method according to Rost (determination of fatty acids insoluble in petroleum ether) yields unsatisfactory results. By way of contrast, the gravimetric determination (after isolation of the polymers via the non-urea adduct fatty acid methyl esters and thin-layer chromatographic separation), as proposed by the authors, permits to obtain results of good reproducibility and to determine thermopolymers and oxypolymers separately. 2. During the refining of rape-seed oil, it was observed that its polymer content decreased considerably on bleaching, and increased on deodorizing.
