When Luiz Fellipe was diagnosed with Stage IV melanoma, he began immunotherapy, but the initial response was disappointing. Seeking a more comprehensive approach, he came to Dr. Eduardo Beltran for further evaluation.
A detailed workup revealed severe gut dysbiosis, low vitamin D levels, and previously undiagnosed Ulcerative Colitis. We implemented the LGS Protocol, focusing on microbiome restoration, metabolic therapy, Vitamin D optimization, an anti-inflammatory diet (VDR Renewal), High-Dose IV Vitamin C, and physician-supervised supportive therapies while he continued immunotherapy with his oncology team.
Within a few months, his tumor had shrunk by more than 50%, allowing his surgical team to successfully remove the remaining disease. We then focused on controlling his Ulcerative Colitis and restoring gut health, recognizing that a healthy microbiome is essential for proper immune function.
After more than a year of treatment, monitoring, and collaboration with his medical team, we are incredibly grateful to celebrate an amazing milestone:
Luiz Fellipe is cancer-free.
This is the story of hope, perseverance, multidisciplinary care, and the importance of looking beyond the tumor to treat the whole patient.
"For I will restore health to you, and your wounds I will heal," declares the Lord. — Jeremiah 30:17
