Please beware of Tam Mateo, ND(not doctor) and his proposed "cures" for diseases.

I know if his curse oops... cures don't work, then why does the ABS-CBN let him talk to the public in many of their shows? Well, I don't know exactly but you might notice that many of their sponsors are Alternative Medicine/Food Supplement companies. Anyway, please beware of him. Do not trust his medical and scientific claims. They are mostly lies or half-truths.

RBC's don't produce the ATP supply of the whole body(each cell usually produces ATP for its own use). Enzymes from veggies are mostly enzymes for veggies not for humans. And they most probably end up as amino acids(the building blocks of enzymes) and not absorbed as the the intact veggie enzymes. A vegan diet would probably help your bowel movement(all those fiber) but it is not a cure for any disease much less breast cancer. Cancer is not a disease that can be cured by strengthening the immune system(except maybe Cervical, I'm not sure). Tumors are cells of your own body therefore the WBC's wouldn't destroy them because they recognize them a as part of your own body. Fine, follow the fucking diet regimen but do not stop taking the chemo.

I first encountered him on the radio. He was in a show with a licensed MD. The MD was stupid, really! I think her license should be revoked and she be forced to take basic biology again. And he, he was just unbearable. True, most of his cures will probably be harmless but he seems to like saying to people to stop using conventional(proven) cures like chemo for cancer and instead use his naturopathic herbs. Then, I saw him again this morning on Salamat Dok. I feared for the worst since he was talking about Breast Cancer cures. HE had the audacity to say that his all-veggie diet can cure breast cancer. Shame on ABS for not researching properly! A simple google search on naturopathy will lead them to quackwatch and other sites that will provide them sufficient knowledge on the quackery that is naturopathy.

i'm glad that i'm not the only one who noticed tam mateo's blatant quackery on national tv! his diet protocol (vegan) is just a cleansing diet combined with a laxative tea (miracle tea). it definitely cannot cure cancer, diabetes nor kidney failure! the people who said they are cured from his diet protocol have already gone chemo/surgery. i can't believe salamat dok still features him! it is like a big scam and they are just milking money on people who are sick! no conscience at all! i hope doh will notice this!

Unknown said...

Totally agree!. Super rich na sila kaya dapat lang macheck ng DOH plus BIR yan!> Sobrang mahal wala naman proper packaging. Nilalagang dahon ng asawa at anak lang ang binibenta nila sasabihin miracle tea.

Unknown said...

Omg! Good thing Ive read this blog. My hubby was about to believe and buy his product. Thank you so much for the info.

Unknown said...

we are now into his treatment for my daughter for 10 days to see the effectiveness, my own daughter hema-onco doctor suggested to try his treatment. im really doubtful about alternative treatments but im also scared to chemotheraphy side effects that i almost lost my daughter. im a jobless single parent and i only depend on my family financial assistant since i lost my job focusing 100% on my daughter. i hope & pray for the answer after 10 days

How many died of chemo more than healed from chemo?! The body can heal itself if only given the exact nutirents it needs!

Unknown said...

If alternative or herbal products gained a huge sum of money, can you people please think how much money all those big pharmaceutical companies are gaining?!!

Unknown said...

You need to research more. The content of this blog needs more of it.

Unknown said...

agree to babe . may basis lahat ng sinasabi sa seminar ni doctor tam , hindi lang yun mga kathang isip. nung una ko naka attend dun tinake down notes ko and then pag uwi sa bahay research and
na find out ko na totoo lahat. na nilalason na tayo ng malalaking company sa mga pagkaing binbibili naten. so bago mo sabihing beware siguro ikaw muna ang mag research ng husto.
mahigpit ang salamat doc hindi sila basta nag papalabas kung hindi nila binackground check yung mga taong nag tetestimony na napagaling sila thru herbal medicine.

Unknown said...

Wow, grabe. Where in the world did you receive the brainwash that chemo cures cancer? Oh, maybe the 40% cancer survival rate (which is only 5 years) that is without the degenerative quality of life that the person has.More so, that 40% is average of all the rates of survival in all cancer, which is not at all close to each other. RESEARCH more!

While what I don't like about Dr. Tam is his "consultants" being the ones who are hands on with the patients, but to say that the big 3 toxic treatments are the next best thing for cancer since slice bread, just shows that lack of research, ignorance, and brainwashing you've received from the "society".

Unknown said...

To all of Dr. Tam Mateo's patients and participants....
please.. please.. please.. Look into this things seriously - why his clinic is strictly not issuing the OFFICIAL RECEIPT please be noted that each & every patients transaction particularly on 'Products' can cost not less than P1,000.00 !!!!

ITS DEFINITELY A HORRIBLE VIOLATION on tax matters...!!!

Calling all BIR agents & experts including Madame Henares.... Please find them & apply the full BIR law & immediate action....

Yours Faithfully

Lahat ng sinabi Ni Dr Tam ay totoo at effective and true ang product nya . isa Ako sa gumaling dahil sa napakinggan ko sya so inapply ko ang lahat ng narinig ko mula sa kanya at Ako ay gumaling sa sakit Kong goiter at mata na lumuwa.

Unknown said...

Pharmaceutical companied are earning more than those who promote naturophatic medicine.it is so silly to think that chemically produced medicine can heal while natural foods can't.lomg before u were born,people are only using natural medicine and their live longer.if dr Tam is "not doctor" as u say, mtagal ng pinakulong ng association ng filipino doctors or ng mga internationa affiliation nya. I WOULD RATHER TRY NATURAL MEDICINE rather than spending my whole life taking "maintenance medicine" dahil sasabihin syo ng typical doctor "once u have diabetes and hypertwnsion,u" ll have it for the rest of ur life which is not true.. Mayne the person who wrote this should learn manners in elementary first.

Iam a patient of Dr.TAM since March 2014. Iam a stage 4 cancer of renal carcinoma (kidney cancer) I got this illness back oct 2012. I was advised by my oncologist to take immuno therapy(oralchemo)same medicine as what Miriam Santiago taken. Because of financial problem, because of very expensive maintenance, I was forced to stop my medication for 1 month.I took only one year medication for this immuno.During my immuno treatment,i noticed some side effects, that i look older than my age, all my hair became white, everyday i have my lbm. March 2014 i tried dr tam's medication. I also change my lifestyle. To summarize it all, just follow all his advise, you will be treated. Iam a living testimony that until now, iam healthy and alive. Even my hypothyrodism was healed. All my lab test are normal. Maybe if i read this article earlier, i might be now RIP.Of course all of this miracle healing came from God almighty. God directed us to Dr. Tam, he used Dr tam as an instrument for my miracle healing.

well, some issues(expensiveness without any OR, popularity through a bias TV station and lack of certificates etc.) were undeniably believable but the point is changing your lifestyle has a very big impact to survive from your illness like by following his instructions pertaining on what, when and how you intake foods.

Macky De Chavez said...

You blatantly attacked Tam Mateo but look at your own proofs all with words such as "most probably", "maybe" "i'm not sure", and you are implying to all of your readers that you are the only one who can do a fine and thorough research using google? Have you tried to research how many people got healed by Tam Mateo's protocols or you are just whining here without doing an investigative research. Shame on people like you who just blog like this and without even giving any definative proof. What do you think of us? that we will just rely on your words? Who are you by the way? Tam Mateo is well known for many years now and you are the only one who rants like this without even going to the person to interview him personally and to interview those who followed his protocols.

Llumiere said...

Dr. Tam thank you for making my client better . He told me his cancer is getting better now.

Unknown said...

Great news mam! I am inspired by your testimony...i know God directed me also to this treatment therefore i will be completely healed!

sweetpeer said...

My partner has hepatitis b now and hes taking dr. Tams herbal medicines. Well see if its effective. Bt honestly i believe in natural medicine than chemical medicine.

I don't know who wrote this blog about Dr. Tam Mateo. What I do know, is whoever did, does not understand what he does and how many hundreds of lives he has saved over the years. His products are only part of what helps sustain what he truly does. His message revolves on "Food as Medicine". I am a medical doctor and I salute Dr. Tam for his enthusiasm in teaching people how to cure diseases the natural way. He is not perfect, and many times, gets some physiology and pathology all mixed up, but the message is clear. Garbage in, garbage out. Medications (prescribed drugs), including chemo, don't cure chronic diseases like heart disease, diabetes, hypertension and cancer. They only mask their symptoms, extend the persons agony and eventually kill the person because of the devastating side effects on vital organs like the liver and kidneys, as the medications and their metabolites accumulate in the body. Food is what causes these diseases. 68% of what people die of today are chronic, non-communicable diseases. 90-98% of all our non-communicable diseases are brought about by our unhealthy lifestyles and about 37% of the lifestyle factors is due to the food we eat. If food is the problem, then a change in the food sick people eat is what will help solve the problem. We've known the solution for decades! Plant-based, whole-foods heal. We just love our steaks, our BBQ wings, our burgers and our fast foods too much to admit that we can do something about our health. So Dr. Tam, keep doing what you're doing and whatever person wrote this piece on you? He's probably going to die of some dreaded chronic condition unless he starts listening to your lectures, changing his eating and bad habits and truly getting a life. Live long, prosper and be of great health!

Do not listen to this blog. Natural healing is the best way naturally given by our God Almighty. Even animals cures themselves by eating hearbal grass. Why don't you give a try? Chemo therapy destroys everything.

Don't believe this blogger. Dr. Tam is the living testimony ng mga sinasabi nya. Imagine he's already in 60's but still he looks like he's on early 30's to 40's. Oo nakita ko na sya. At lagi kong nakikita. He's our co-brethren. God provided us enough medicines sa nature. Imagine there's so many synthetic drugs around but still many diseases came out? Science can reverse everything. It looks like you've been cured. Pero hindi. Still natural healing is the best way.

Franz Lambert said...

The father of medicine Hipocrates once said "let thy food be thy medicine and thy medicine be thy food" - a hipocratic oath still recited by doctors around the world. Natural healing is still the best. Ikaw ang mag research

Last 2002 my brother was diagnose with end stage liver disease and had only 2 months to live, we heard about Dr Tam and we went to see him. He's honest with my brother that he cannot do anything about his cancer but what he said was "pero maipapangako ko sa 'yo hnd ka mamamatay ng nakangiwe", true to his promise my brother died peacefully without any complain of pain. Thank you Dr Tam.

Sana po matauhan yung mga pasyenteng nalinlang ng taong to pati ang ABS CBN. Isa po kami sa mga pinaasa na gagaling yung stage 1 cancer ng nanay ko. Pinayuhan po kaming mag pa opera ng doktor namin, kaso may lumapit sa aming kapitbahay at sinabihang magpakonsulta kay tam mateo. Sabi wag po daw magpa opera at bumili lang po ng mga gamot nya. Sumigla naman po ang nanay ko ng ikang buwan, kaso kalaunan kumalat po ang cancer at nagung stage 3 pagkatpos ng halos isang taon. Nanghihinayang po kami kasi stage 1 palang po yun... Sana hindi po kayo magpapaloko. Isa po siyang Cancer Nutritionist. Hindi po xa doctor ng cancer o medisina. He is just PREYING in our Despiration.

Mark Reyes said...

Agree po ako na pagkaing natural ay maganda. Pero hindi po ako sang ayon sa ginagawa ni Tam Mateo na nanggagamot. Hindi po siya lisensyadong doctor sa medisina, isa po siyang cancer nutritionist. Namatayan po ako ng nanay nang dahil sa kanya. Kumakapit ang mga tao sa kanya dahil sa FALSE Hope of cure in despiration. And worst pinagkakakitaan nya po. Kayo naman po, nakita ko sa profile nyo ay isa kang Lifestyle Physician. Kaya po nawawalan ng bilib ang mga Pilipino sa mga Doktor natin dahil sa mga doktor na katulad mo, na umasta parang albularyo. Siguro po hindi po kayo natanggap sa mga training ng maayos na specialty o hindi nkapasa sa mga specialty board exams kaya po hanggang Lifestyle physician lang po kayo. Kung baga G.P lang po kayo na pinagtatawanan ng mga kapwa doktor. Kayo po ang tunay na huwaran ng bobong doktor sa Pilipinas. Nakakahiya po kayo.

Hi im one of "us". Tama po yung blogger. Masakit man pong isipin na nagssabi siya ng totoo. Hindi po doktor ng medisina c tam mateo. Isa po siyang cancer nutritionist. At sana wag niyang kalimutan yun. Marami pong despiradong tao pag despirado kumakapit kahit sa patalim. C tam po ay nabubuhay sa despiration ng mga taong gusting gumaling at pinagkakakitaan nya to. Pag ganyan po, wala po siyang pinagkaiba sa albularyo. Nkakalungkot nga lang na sinasakyan ng media ang kanyang pinagggawa. Napansin ko lang, dalawang magandang business sa Pilipinas ay Relihiyon at Albularyo. Andami kasi mga gullible na tao na katulad mo

Unknown said...

Kung gusto mo mam gumawa kayo nang study or research kung sino ang mahaba ang buhay ang vegan ba o ang hindi? Kung mali si doc dahil malulugi mga doctor na sa gamot lng umaasa cge tama n sila at mali si doc sam. Pls mgresearch muna kayo bago kayo humusga dahil madami n natulongan ang tao. God bless . Dios n bahala humusga kung sino tama.

Unknown said...

Please do your own research bago ka maniwala sa mga tao n natatapakan industriya nila

Unknown said...

just so you know,ang pagiging NATUROPATHIC DOCTOR bes ay hindi simpleng cancer nutritionist .after taking premed courses nag aaral ng 4-5yrs ang mga NATUROPATHIC doctor . half sa 4-5 yrs na yan ay mga subjects same sa conventional med school.research ka muna bago mag agree sa nagpost against Doc Tam.

Unknown said...

And in PGH the doctor who did Transarterial Chemoembolization to my brother did not issue an official receipt.they gave us aknowledgement receipt saying that the procedure will not be reflected on hospital bill because all the materials and drugs to be used will be outsourced. At right after ng procedure wala pang 5mins hiningi na yung bayad. Kaliwaan! Thats when i lose my trust to these conventional doctors. The chemo may work pero mas concern nilang lahat ang bayad sa kanila.

I totally agree with you. Pharmaceutical companies are just making profit from these deadly diseases such as cancer and HIV.

May living testimony ang friend ko. Dati sya nag insulin, overweight at mataas cholesterol. Ngayon from 170 lbs, 130 lbs na lang at gumaling na ang diabetes nya after 6 months. May walking exercise din daw dapat. Naniniwala ako sa magandang naidudulot ng pagkaing halaman. So be it kung ayaw makinig ng iba. Maaring may mga dahilan sila kaya ayaw nilang gumaling ang mga tao.

Tam Mateo claims to be a graduate of Clayton College of Natural Healing which is now closed. Read this article to be enlightened

Food as medicine guys. If chemo is so effective why are most cancer patients still dying, not only from cancer, but others from the chemo therapy itself. As physicians, we also need to upgrade what we know. Chemo is not the only solution. Watch these evidence-based presentations and expand your knowledge:
