Fighting Cancer

Information on one of the deadliest diseases of our
time: CANCER            .... To fight it...


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 tumours.

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 colour. 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 beefor 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.
