Presentation slides: High Dose Melatonin Therapy – An Ideal Adjuvant Anti-cancer Therapy byFRANK SHALLENBERGER, MD, HMD CARSON CITY, NV USA  https://riordanclinic.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/3-3-Shallenberger-High-Dose-Melatonin-Therapy-An-Ideal-Adjuvant.pdf

• Melatonin produced at night by pineal gland. ANY light except for red light suppresses its production. VERY IMPORTANT TO SLEEP WHEN IT IS DARK OUT.
• Side effects: none. Peaks one hour after taking it. Sustained for 3-4 hours
• Crosses blood-brain barrier, does not affect levels of any other hormones, 
• Melatonin in the treatment of cancer: a systematic review of randomized controlled trials and meta-analysis. Mills, Wu et al. J Pineal Res. 2005 November: 39(4):360-6.
• -directly inhibits cancer cells
• -stimulated immunity to fight cancer
• -most radiation and chemo patients no longer have side effects, synergistic effect with chemo in some 
• -protects damage from radiation imaging tests such as CT’s and PET
• -reduced risk of dying by about half
• -works no matter the dose
• -stimulates mitochondria
• -works especially well in estrogen positive breast, and prostate ca (hormone-related cancers)
• -inhibits metastases (main cause of death)
• -stimulates cell differentiation
• -anti-angiogenesis
• -Bottom line: STOPS THE GROWTH

Cancer Metastasis:

• Mechanisms of inhibition by melatonin. Su, Hsieh, Yan. J Pineal Res, 2017: Jan:62(1).
• Melatonin uptake through glucose transporters: a new target for melatonin inhibition of cancer. Hovia, Gonzalez, Menendez. J Pineal Res. 2015 Mar:58(2):234-50.

Other important points about melatonin from Dr. Ruhland:

• Reduces uptake of glucose
• Melatonin is the best anti-oxidant in nervous system
• Melatonin is anti-estrogenic
• Melatonin reduces cisplatin-induced renal injury and neuropathy
• CaEDTA given day after cisplatin prevents it from accumulating and causing neuropathy
• US Army found it protects against radiation (1998 study)
• Dose for protecting from CT/PET scans – 300 mg 2 hours before scan
• No contraindications
• In animal studies, melatonin stops:
• Macular degeneration (stops it 100% of time)
• Parkinson’s
• Dementia
• Osteoporosis
• CV disease
• Do not use tablets or time-release

COVID-19

Dr. John explained he is slowly adding to his list of therapies as he finds treatments with documented success. Here is what he’s put together so far:

• Vitamins C, A, D, B Vitamins – especially Thiamine and Riboflavin;
• Zinc — which the science is showing is essential for treating C-19;
• Glutathione precursors;
• Homeopathy, both for prevention and for treatment;
• Herbs, many, although two in particular (Andrographis; St. Johnswort has been working very well for my patients for symptoms of infection as well as the anxiety and depression people are feeling);
• Iodine; and more.
• IV-C is proving very effective for moderate and advanced patients;
• fatty acids for energy
• Ozone is being used worldwide with great success (see below)
• Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is effective early on and moderate cases. Possibly with advanced cases as well.
• Glandular treatment, in particular Thymus, and cocounut oil.
