What kind of approach can make you INSANELY rich?

Not really a fair comment. Intuition without experience is just wishful thinking or possibly intestinal gas.

Jobs's intuition in his field made inroads like no other. His experience in treating illness was non-existent, so his "intuition" or wishful thinking in that area was meaningless and ultimately unfortunate.

Some intuitions are beyond experience. For example relativity theory is something beyond human experience.

For a common man intuition can be as simple as a dream to pursue something in his life which he has no experience at all.
 
While Job's had a less aggressive form of pancreatic cancer, pancreatic cancer is bad news and Western medicine may or may not have helped him.
Jobs's specialist advised him that he had a form of pancreatic cancer that was treatable. Jobs did not act in time.
The Chinese have had great success with qigong practice in the treatment of cancer.
I don't think so. It's quackery with a possible placebo effect. Nothing wrong with placebo as far as these things go, but let's not read more into it than exists.

Glad you cleared that up Fred, I will alert the many thousands that they were not actually cured.
 
Harvard University Medical School Researchers find that Energy Healing is Cytotoxic to Pancreatic Cancer Cells But Not to Normal Cells

The online medical dictionary defines the term 'cytotoxic' as follows:

"Cytotoxic: Toxic to cells, cell-toxic, cell-killing. Any agent or process that kills cells. Chemotherapy and radiotherapy are forms of cytotoxic therapy. They kill cells."

In the June 2006 edition of the International Journal of Biochemistry & Cell Biology in an article entitled "External Qi of Yan Xin Qigong differentially regulates the Akt and extracellular signal-regulated kinase pathways and is cytotoxic to cancer cells but not to normal cells" several Harvard University Medical School researchers found energy healing ('external qi' healing in qigong lexicon) to be cytotoxic to pancreatic cancer cells but not to normal cells.

The authors had the following to say about traditional approaches to pancreatic cancer care:

"Carcinoma of the pancreas is the fifth leading cause of cancer-related deaths in Western countries, with an overall 1-year survival rate of ~12% and 5-year survival rate of 3-5%. Resistance to chemotherapy is a major cause of treatment failure and poor prognosis in pancreatic cancer."

The study states that "long-term clinical observations and ongoing studies have shown significant antitumor effect of external Qi of Yan Xin Qigong which originated from traditional Chinese medicine."

Furthermore "a single 5 min exposure of BxPC3 cells to external Qi of Yan Xin Qigong induced apoptosis, accompanied by a dramatic increase of the sub-G1 cell population, DNA fragmentation, and cleavage of caspases 3, 8 and 9, and poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase. Prolonged treatment with external Qi of Yan Xin Qigong caused rapid lysis of BxPC3 cells. In contrast, treatment of fibroblasts with external Qi of Yan Xin Qigong induced transient activation of extracellular signal-regulated kinases and Akt, and caused no cytotoxic effect. [LAYPERSON TRANSLATION:] These findings suggest that external Qi of Yan Xin Qigong may differentially regulate these survival pathways in cancer versus normal cells and exert cytotoxic effects preferentially on cancer cells, and that it could potentially be a valuable approach for therapy of pancreatic carcinomas."

When I read this kind of things I always ask myself: if it is really successful why is it not applied all over the world as the ultimate solution?

I don't say that the statement is false, I just use my "simple farmers logic".

Or did you write "had", to say it was so in past, but not anymore?
 
I guess we have found the "everybody is a winner" type of guy.



Why not? If you don't compare yourself to others how do you know how good you are? Let's say you made 5% last year and you feel really peachy about yourself. Had you compared yourself to others you would find out that they made way more than you did, but that little objective fact would mess up your tender subjective happiness....

How do you know if you lived up to your potential when you don't have a peer standard to compare to?

My point is our uniqueness must be given top priority. Rest of the things like team work, benchmarking, continuing from where others left, etc will fall in right place when we have clarity about where we are standing now and what we are desiring for.

Western physicians and researchers have been going to China to study their approaches and the Chinese have studied and practice Western medicine. Ideally we would like to have a combination of therapeutic regimens to more effectively treat all conditions. There are certain things that Western medicine cannot do and certain things Chinese medicine cannot do. There is plenty of research out there for those whose curiosity outweighs their opinions.
 
The Chinese must be not aware of their own discoveries:

"With increasing incidence and mortality, cancer is the leading cause of death in China and is a major public health problem."

Hey guys, I have an idea how to get insanely rich! Why don't we sell homeopathic or natural cancer cure to the Chinese?
