Hoxsey Formula Method, Skin Cancer Alternative Natural Treatment

Picture of Hoxsey Method formula imageIf you have ever known anyone that has been diagnosed with cancer, you know that it is a horrific disease. To watch someone that you love literally lose every essence of their life as they go through chemotherapy and other, powerful, medicines is something that nobody should experience.

Alternative cancer healing treatments began in the year 1840 with a horse farmer by the name of John Hoxsey. Finding a tumor on his prized stallion, Hoxsey was devastated, but he could not bear to shoot the animal. Instead, he decided to let the animal graze out its days in the pasture until it peacefully passed away. Interestingly, rather than dying the horse grew stronger through munching on plants and herbs that it seemed to be drawn to. Noticing the drastic improvement in the horse’s tumor, Hoxsey began to observe the stallion’s eating pattern.

Harry Hoxsey, the great-grandson of John Hoxsey, had no formal medical training, but began promoting his great-grandfather’s original cancer Hoxsey formula which contained the herbs, bloodroot, burdock, red clover, pokeroot, barberry root, buckthorn, prickly ash, stillingia root and cascara. This black salve formulation was stunningly effective on cancer, and it wasnt long before word of his cancer treatments spread across the US.
Starting in 1924 with his first clinic, he expanded to 17 states by the mid 1950s, along the way constantly battling organized medicine that labeled him a charlatan. Hoxsey’s supporters point out he was the victim of arrests, or “quackdowns” spearheaded by the proponents of established medical practices. Interviews of patients satisfied with the results of the controversial treatment are balanced with physicians from the FDA and the AMA. A clinic in Tijuana, Mexico claims an 80% success rate, while opponents are naturally skeptical.

The United States is in the midst of a of skin cancer epidemic, according to a report in from the Mayo Clinic. The report goes on to state, One in five Americans will develop skin cancer, and a person’s risk of the disease doubles if that person has had five or more sunburns, according to the Mayo statistics.
Today, the Hoxsey Method is illegal in the United States, the Hoxsey Method is not supported by the American Cancer Society or National Cancer Institute, as neither have found objective evidence that the treatment provides any tangible benefit to cancer victims.
But in Tijuana, Mexico, a Hoxsey Method clinic still runs today by the sister of one of Harry Hoxsey’s former nurses.
An out-patient only clinic, the cost for treatment is about $3,500 with patients responsible for all costs.
Mexico is now the only place where the original Hoxsey Method can be obtained, though some naturopathic practitioners in the U.S. have adapted a form of the treatment that can be legally administered.


What is apparent is that cancer continues to be one of humankind’s more dreaded diseases, and that political and economic forces dominate research and development.
