How Unresolved Psycho-Emotional Trauna 

Causes Cancer

One of the most recent studies on psychosomatic cancer therapy comes from Germany. Over the past ten years, medical doctor / surgeon Ryke Geerd Hamer has examined 20,000 cancer patients with all types of cancer. Dr. Hamer wondered why cancer never seems to systematically spread directly from one organ to the surrounding tissue. For example, he never found cancer of the cervix AND cancer of the uterus in the same woman. He also noticed that all his cancer patients seemed to have something in common: there had been some kind of psycho-emotional conflict prior to the onset of their disease - usually a few years before - a conflict that had never been fully resolved. X-rays taken of the brain by Dr. Hamer showed in all cases a dark shadow somewhere in the brain. 

These dark spots would be in exactly the same place in the brain for the same types of cancer. There was also a 100% correlation between the dark spot in the brain, the location of the cancer in the body and the specific type of unresolved conflict. On the basis of these findings, Dr. Hamer suggests that when we are in a stressful conflict that is not resolved, the emotional reflex centre in the brain which corresponds to the experienced emotion (e.g. anger, frustration, grief) will slowly break down. Each of these emotion centres are connected to a specific organ. When a centre breaks down, it will start sending wrong information to the organ it controls, resulting in the formation of deformed cells in the tissues: cancer cells. He also suggests that metastasis is not the SAME cancer spreading. It is the result of new conflicts that may well be brought on by the very stress of having cancer or of invasive and painful or nauseating therapies.

Dr Hamer started including psychotherapy as an important part of the healing process and found that when the specific conflict was resolved, the cancer immediately stopped growing at a cellular level. The dark spot in the brain, referred to by Dr Hamer as a 'Hamer Herd' shown in the picture below, started to disappear. X-rays of the brain now showed a healing edema around the damaged emotional centre as the brain tissue began to repair the afflicted point. There was once again normal communication between brain and body. 

A similar healing edema could also be seen around the now inactive cancer tissue. Eventually, the cancer would become encapsulated, discharged or dealt with by the natural action of the body. Diseased tissue would disappear and normal tissue would then again appear. According to Dr Hamer, the real cause of cancer and other diseases is an unexpected traumatic shock for which we are emotionally unprepared. 

Hamer Herd Concentric Rings

Of the 20,000 cancer patients reviewed, Dr Hamer discovered every cancer in the body has a different emotional cause. For example, all cancers of the left breast are caused by the individual experiencing an emotional conflict involving the child, home or mother; whereas all cancers of the right breast are caused by the individual experiencing an emotional conflict with the partner or others. This is because each type of psycho-emotional conflict, as found by Dr Hamer, is dealt with by a different part of the emotional reflect centre in the brain that corresponds to a different organ within the body. In nearly all cases, the conflict experienced occurs approximately 2 years prior to the diagnosis of cancer. To discover Dr Hamer's proposed emotional cause for each type of cancer go to:

Discover how stress causes cancer over 6 specific and interrelated phases: 

Phase 1 of Cancer: Inescapable Shock 

Phase 1 occurs approximately 18-24 months prior to the diagnosis of cancer. This is where the individual with cancer experiences an "inescapable shock" or acute psycho-emotional trauma, affecting deep sleep and the production of melatonin within the body. Melatonin is the primary hormone responsible for inhibiting cancer cell growth. Produced by the pineal gland during deep sleep, melatonin inhibits cancer cell growth through the on-going production of interleukin 2 (IL-2), which governs white blood cell immune activity and protects against microbial infection. Without enough melatonin due to prolonged chronic stress affecting deep sleep patterns, cancer cells thrive. As discovered by Dr Ryke Geerd Hamer (below) every cancer has a different and very specific psycho-emotional cause; whereby a part of the emotional reflex centre in the brain is damaged as a result of the prolonged psycho-emotional trauma. And as each part of the emotional reflex centre in the brain controls and is connected to a different organ of the body, as this emotion centre breaks down experiencing necrosis, so does the organ it controls leading to cancer.

Phase 2 of Cancer: Adrenaline Depletion

Elevated stress hormone cortisol levels deplete all-important adrenaline (epinephrine) levels in the adrenal glands. There are limited reserves of adrenaline in the body and when a person is under constant psycho-emotional stress these reserves are depleted quickly. While insulin is used to transport glucose into cells, it is adrenaline which is critical for cell respiration and for converting this glucose in the cell into ATP energy for the body and for healthy cell division [which occurs via the metabolic pathway known as Oxidative Phosphorylation and via the Krebs’ Citric Acid Cycle of the mitochondria of the cell]. Without adrenaline to stimulate the G-Protein to stimulate production of the GDP molecule [which is essential for mitochondrial cell respiration and glucose conversion] the cells Krebs’ Citric Acid Cycle and Oxidative Phosphorylation metabolic pathway is broken and the cell is forced to ferment glucose instead as a means to obtain [smaller amounts of] ATP energy [via the process known as Glycolysis], which creates lactic acid in the cell and a low pH environment. This sets the stage for the cancer-fungus to evolve in phase 3 to ferment rising glucose and lactic acid, causing cell mutation.
 

Phase 3 of Cancer: The Cancer Fungus

Somatids (tiny microorganisms necessary for life) that live in our body pleomorphise [or change] into yeast-like-fungus to ferment excess glucose and lactic acid in cells. In a healthy person, somatids are limited to 3 stages in their life cycle – somatid, spore, double spore. However, in a highly acidic (low pH) lactic acid environment caused by prolonged chronic stress breaking the cell's Krebs' Citric Acid Cycle, somatids pleomorphise into a further 13 stages. These stages include viral-bacterial-yeast-like-fungus forms which then migrate to the cell nucleus to reproduce, releasing acidic waste products called “mycotoxins”, inhibiting cell DNA repair and inhibiting the all-important tumor suppressor genes. Without the tumor suppressor genes [namely p53] to regulate cell death (apoptosis) when the cell has mutated beyond repair, the cell lives on and ‘cell-growth regulating’ proto-oncogenes turn into oncogenes, causing normal cells to mutate into cancer cells.

Phase 4 of Cancer: Niacin Deficiency 

Depleted adrenaline (epinephrine) levels cause a depletion of dopamine in the brain. Adrenaline is made by dopamine, and as more and more dopamine is used up during prolonged chronic stress, the amino-acid tryptophan creates serotonin to offset depressed mood. This results in a depletion of tryptophan which is needed to synthesize niacin / niacinamide (vitamin B3) for cell respiration. Normally tryptophan converts niacin / niacinamide into NAD coenzymes which are then used by the Krebs’ Citric Acid Cycle in the mitochondria of the cell for cell respiration, glucose conversion and the creation of ATP energy. Without niacin and NAD coenzymes, the Krebs’s Citric Acid Cycle / Oxidative Phosphorylation metabolic pathway is broken, causing the cell to ferment glucose instead for energy, resulting in cell mutation and the formation of cancer.

Phase 5 of Cancer: Vitamin C Depletion 

Depleted adrenaline levels (caused by prolonged chronic stress) cause a depletion of ascorbic acid (vitamin C) in the adrenal glands. Ascorbic acid is the key ingredient used by dopamine to make noradrenaline (norepinephrine) in the adrenal glands, which is then converted to adrenaline. During prolonged chronic stress more and more adrenaline is pumped out and then depleted, meaning more and more ascorbic acid is used up in the creation of adrenaline. During chronic stress the adrenal glands also release ascorbic acid into the body to diminish the stressful impact of adrenaline [and other stress hormones] on the heart and blood pressure systems. Ascorbic acid is essential for preventing cell DNA damage caused by “oxidative stress”, converting oxygen waste product’s superoxide and hydrogen peroxide into oxygen and water within the cell mitochondria throughout the process known as Oxidative Phosphorylation. The continual loss of ascorbic acid [during prolonged chronic stress] thereby increases cell mitochondrial DNA damage and mutation, causing normal cells to mutate into cancer cells. 

Phase 6 of Cancer: Immune Suppression

The immune system is shut down by a subconscious wanting to "exit life", caused by elevated stress hormone cortisol levels depleting serotonin and dopamine levels in the brain that cause internal depression. As revealed by the Holy Spirit of God in three separate channelled readings (below), an individual experiencing inescapable shock and prolonged chronic stress often feels tired of life and deep down wants out of the never-ending struggle and pain of life, sending subliminal messages to the immune system to shut down. This occurs at the subconscious level where the immune system receives orders to stop production of interleukin-2-producing T cells, B cells, natural killer cells, macrophages and neutrophils. Without immune system cells, viral-bacterial-yeast-like-fungus that have pleomorphised within cells (in phase 3) continue to grow and newly created cancer cells continue to multiply.

Dr Ryke Geerd Hamer proposes a person who experiences the onset of detectable cancer has experienced a "biological conflict" or inescapable shock that causes subsequent organ-necrosis and tumour cell growth. Below is a list of conflicts Dr Ryke Geerd Hamer proposes serves as the trigger event and cause for each different type of cancer in the body:

ADRENAL CORTEX: Wrong Direction. Gone Astray
BLADDER: Ugly Conflict. Dirty Tricks
BONE: Lack of Self Worth. Inferiority Feeling
BRAIN TUMOR: Stubbornness. Refusing to Change Old Patterns. Mental Frustration [Dr Hamer does not propose a conflict for brain tumor. The above is Louise Hay's proposed cause.]
BREAST MILK GLAND: Involving Care or Disharmony
BREAST MILK DUCT: Separation Conflict
BREAST LEFT: Conflict concerning Child, Home or Mother
BREAST RIGHT: Conflict with Partner or Others
BRONCHIOLES: Territorial Conflict
CERVIX: Severe Frustration
COLON: Ugly Indigestible Conflict
ESOPHAGUS: Cannot Have It or Swallow It
GALL BLADDER: Rivalry Conflict
HEART: Perpetual Conflict
INTESTINES: Indigestible Chunk of Anger
KIDNEYS: Not wanting to Live. Water or Fluid Conflict
LARYNX: Conflict of Fear and Fright
LIVER: Fear of Starvation
LUNGS: Fear of Dying or Suffocation, including Fear for Someone Else
LYMPH GLANDS: Loss of Self-Worth
MELANOMA: Feeling Dirty, Soiled, Defiled
MIDDLE EAR: Not being able to get some Vital Information
MOUTH: Cannot Chew It or Hold It
PANCREAS: Anxiety-Anger Conflict with Family Members. Inheritance
PROSTATE: Ugly Conflict with Sexual Connotations
RECTUM: Fear of Being Useless
SKIN: Loss of Integrity
SPLEEN: Shock of being Physically/Emotionally Wounded
STOMACH: Indigestible Anger. Swallowed Too Much
TESTES/OVARIES: Loss Conflict
THYROID: Feeling Powerless
TUMOR: Nursing Old Hurts and Shocks. Building Remorse (Dr Hamer does not propose a conflict for tumor. The above is Louise Hay's proposed cause.)
UTERUS: Sexual Conflict

Studies below show a correlation between extreme suppression of emotions (primarily anger) and a highly stressful life event preceding the onset and development of cancer.
