Here is my
simplistic understanding. Every cell in your body needs oxygen,
nutrients and water to live. If a cell can't get enough of these because
there isn't enough around, or if the cell has been damaged, it will
probably die. Cells that have been replaced during the body's healing
processes will also die.
But a cell will do its very best to live on, and, if it can,
to reproduce. If it manages to survive and reproduce, then the resulting
daughter cells will have learnt how to live without oxygen, or with some
damage. However they then don't deliver the functionality that the body
requires at this point, the body's defence systems recognise them as a
bit suspect, tries to stop them reproducing, and to kill them off. These
events happen all the time. In a healthy body, the balance is in favour
of healthy cells and the rouge cells don't make it for long.
What
happens if there is an area of your body that just doesn't get enough
oxygen, water or nutrients? What happens if there is an area of your
body where the defence systems are really sluggish and can't keep up
with the demand? What happens if there is an area of your body where the
cells are getting damaged, or rogue cells are accumulating at an abnormally high rate? Well, under these
circumstances then the rouge cells may flourish. They may produce incorrect
structures called tumours, that are of no use, or that interfere with the
body's normal structures.

"Over 40% of cancers due to lifestyle, says review
Nearly half of cancers diagnosed in the UK each year - over 130,000 in
total - are caused by avoidable life choices including smoking, drinking
and eating the wrong things, a review reveals."
Vitamin
B17 (amygdalin) occurs naturally in many plants where it imparts a
bitter taste, as in raw bitter apricot kernels, raw apple pips and another 14,000
plants. It used to occur in bitter almonds, but the commercial almond
crop has now been replaced with sweet almonds. The bitter taste
associated with B17 is not represented in the western diet, it has
steadily been removed.
Laetrile
is basically a concentrated form of B17.
Research
into the way B17 destroys cancer cells is generally not available or
supported main stream, as there is no profit to be made from something
that is widely available in nature. Some understanding of B17 in this
context has been around for over 100 years.

"Antineoplastons
are responsible for curing some of the most incurable forms of terminal
cancer. Various cancer survivors are presented in the film who chose
these medicines instead of surgery, chemotherapy or radiation - with
full disclosure of medical records to support their diagnosis and
recovery - as well as systematic (non-anecdotal) FDA-supervised clinical
trial data comparing Antineoplastons to other available treatments—which
is published within the peer-reviewed medical literature."
"In Aug
2008 our beautiful little girl age 18 months was diagnosed with a brain
tumour. Our whole world came crashing down and life would never be the
same."
