Useful update information from Hopkins Hospital on one of the
deadliest diseases of our time: CANCER
1.Every person has cancer cells in the body. These cancer cells do not
show up in the standard tests until they have multiplied to a few
billion. When doctors tell cancer patients that there are no more
cancer cells in their bodies after treatment, it just means the tests
are unable to detect the cancer cells because they have not reached the
detectable size.
2.Cancer cells occur between 6 to more than 10 times in a person's
lifetime.
3.When
the person's immune system is strong the cancer cells will be destroyed
and prevented from multiplying and forming tumors.
4.When
a person has cancer it indicates the person has multiple nutritional
deficiencies. These could be due to genetic, environmental, food
and lifestyle factors.
5.To
overcome the multiple nutritional deficiencies, changing diet and
including supplements will strengthen the immune system.
6.Chemotherapy involves poisoning the rapidly-growing cancer cells and
also destroys rapidly-growing healthy cells in the bone marrow,
gastro-intestinal tract etc, and can cause organ damage, like liver,
kidneys, heart, lungs etc.
7.Radiation while destroying cancer cells also burns, scars and damages
healthy cells, tissues and organs.
8.Initial treatment with chemotherapy and radiation will often reduce
tumor size. However prolonged use of chemotherapy and radiation do
not result in more tumor destruction.
9.When
the body has too much toxic burden from chemotherapy and radiation the
immune system is either compromised or destroyed, hence the person
can succumb to various kinds of infections and complications.
10.Chemotherapy and radiation can cause
cancer cells to mutate and become resistant and difficult to
destroy. Surgery can also cause cancer cells
to spread to other sites.
11.An
effective way to battle cancer is to starve the cancer cells by not
feeding it with the foods it needs to multiply.
CANCER
CELLS FEED ON:
a. Sugar is a cancer-feeder. By cutting off sugar it cuts
off one important food supply to the cancer cells. Sugar
substitutes like NutraSweet, Equal, Spoonful, etc are made with
Aspartame and it is harmful. A better natural substitute would
be Manuka honey or molasses but only in very small amounts. Table
salt has a chemical added to make it white in color. Better
alternative is Bragg's aminos or sea salt.
b. Milk
causes the body to produce mucus, especially in the gastro-intestinal
tract. Cancer feeds on mucus. By cutting off milk and
substituting with unsweetened soya milk cancer cells are being starved.
c. Cancer
cells thrive in an acid environment. A meat-based diet is acidic and it
is best to eat fish, and a little chicken rather than beef or pork.
Meat also contains livestock antibiotics, growth hormones and parasites,
which are all harmful, especially to people with cancer.
d. A diet
made of 80% fresh vegetables and juice, whole grains, seeds, nuts and a
little fruits help put the body into an alkaline environment.
About 20% can be from cooked food including beans. Fresh vegetable
juices provide live enzymes that are easily absorbed and reach down to
cellular levels within 15 minutes to nourish and enhance growth of
healthy cells. To obtain live enzymes for building healthy cells
try and drink fresh vegetable juice (most vegetables including bean
sprouts) and eat some raw vegetables 2 or 3 times a day. Enzymes
are destroyed at temperatures of 104 degrees F (40 degrees C).
e.
Avoid coffee, tea, and chocolate, which have high caffeine. Green
tea is a better alternative and has cancer-fighting properties.
Water-best to drink purified water, or filtered, to avoid known toxins
and heavy metals in tap water. Distilled water is acidic, avoid
it.
12.Meat protein is difficult to
digest and requires a lot of digestive enzymes. Undigested meat
remaining in the intestines become putrefied and leads to more toxic
buildup.
13.Cancer cell walls have a tough
protein covering. By refraining from or eating less meat it frees
more enzymes to attack the protein walls of cancer cells and allows the
body's killer cells to destroy the cancer cells.
14.Some supplements build up the
immune system (IP6, Flor-ssence, Essiac, anti-oxidants, vitamins,
minerals, EFAs etc.) to enable the body's own killer cells to destroy
cancer cells. Other supplements like vitamin E are known to cause
apoptosis, or programmed cell death, the body's normal method of
disposing of damaged, unwanted, or unneeded cells.
15.Cancer is a disease of the
mind, body, and spirit. A proactive and positive spirit will help the
cancer warrior be a survivor. Anger, unforgiveness and bitterness
put the body into a stressful and acidic environment. Learn to
have a loving and forgiving spirit. Learn to relax and enjoy life.
16.Cancer cells cannot thrive in
an oxygenated environment. Exercising daily, and deep breathing
help to get more oxygen down to the cellular level. Oxygen therapy
is another means employed to destroy cancer cells.
CANCER UPDATE FROM
JOHN HOPKINS HOSPITAL
1. No plastic containers
in micro.
2. No water bottles in
freezer.
3. No plastic wrap in
microwave.
John Hopkins has recently sent
this out in its newsletters. This information is being circulated
at
Walter
Reed Army
Medical
Center
as well. Dioxin chemicals causes cancer, especially breast cancer.
Dioxins are highly poisonous to the cells of our bodies. Don't
freeze your plastic bottles with water in them as this releases dioxins
from the plastic.
Recently, Dr. Edward Fujimoto,
Wellness Program Manager at
Castle
Hospital, was on a TV
program to explain this health hazard. He talked about dioxins and
how bad they are for us.
He said that we should not be
heating our food in the microwave using plastic containers.
This especially applies to foods
that contain fat. He said that the combination of fat, high heat,
and plastics releases dioxin into the food and ultimately into the cells
of the body. Instead, he recommends using glass, such as Corning Ware,
Pyrex or ceramic containers for heating food. You get the same
results, only without the dioxin. So such things as TV dinners,
instant ramen and soups, etc., should be removed from the container and
heated in something else.
Paper isn't bad but you don't
know what is in the paper. It's just safer to use tempered glass,
Corning Ware, etc. He reminded us that a while ago some of the
fast food restaurants moved away from the foam containers to paper.
The dioxin problem is one of the reasons.
Also, he pointed out that plastic
wrap, such as Saran, is just as dangerous when placed over foods to be
cooked in the microwave. As the food is nuked, the high heat
causes poisonous toxins to actually melt out of the plastic wrap and
drip into the food. Cover food with a paper towel instead.
Please inform anyone important in
your life about this information. We hope it could help save some lives.
Cherish
your health: If it is good, preserve it. If it unstable, improve
it. If it is beyond what you can improve, get help. The
secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the
past, worry about the
future,
or
anticipate troubles, but to live in the present moment wisely
and earnestly. ~Budda~ |
