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.
