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.
>>
>>
>> WHAT 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 sma ll 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 soy 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 no urish 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
>> putrified 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.
