Can Cesium Chloride Kill Cancer Cells

Cesium is a rare, naturally occurring element of alkali metal, similar in chemical structure to lithium, sodium, and potassium. Cesium chloride is a salt form of this element. The cells of the body can only live within a certain pH range or they will die. When we eat or drink, we affect our body's pH values. When we take in something acidic, or of low pH (low oxygen) values, the body either has to pull alkaline minerals from within itself to neutralize the acid, or store the acid somewhere in the tissue.

Cesium can be absorbed by all cells, probably due to its similarity in chemical structure to potassium. Proponents claim the intracellular pH of tumor cells is usually very low (acidic) compared to normal cells, and that cesium chloride supplements increase the pH level of tumor cells back to a normal level, which may be bad to the cancer's growth. Since cesium chloride is claimed to work by raising the pH of the tumor cells, its use in therapy has been called "high pH therapy." There is no scientific evidence to support this theory.
