The Answer to Cancer

The ANSWER to BREAST CANCER! OCT. 2007
October is Breast Cancer Month and so I thought I’d share with everyone: “The Answer to Cancer.”

Very simple: Avoid what’s causing the cancer!

TIME magazine’s front cover story, ( Oct. 15th 2007) Why Breast Cancer Is Spreading Around the World by Kathleen Kingbury, complIments what I also believe: The spread of U.S. and European lifestyle (our habits) is contributing to the breast cancer boom. The worst of these habits: DIET.

Without a doubt, I believe, BREAST CANCER (and others) is caused by our ignorance on how to select, prepare, and eat food to maintain our optimal health and well-being. I know one woman who has reversed her breast cancer. If one woman could do it, every woman in the world could do it.

I don't think this is "THE ANSWER" to Cancer,

Other wise it would already be everywhere. And we, surivors all ready know what a good diet and the way we cook it. etc does for us. As do the Doctors that tell us.

But i surpose every bit counts. As long as people don't depend on this alone.

I beleive like you do that diet is very crutial in preventing and treatment of breast cancer, but it is not all there is to cure. If not we would have decleared the war against cancer won, because most people will rather change their diet than go through chemo. As we survivors know, life style change, regular physical activity and diet keeps us strong and healthy. I encourage everyone out there to be proactive and save lives.

Anyone who is a Cancer survivor Or wants to prevent Cancer knows this already.

I believe, and only my belief- that diet and all of above is essential to "prevent" - not cure. Everyone is entitalled to they own decisions and beliefs.
It is a personal choice- not one you can push onto people.

But, I do thank you for your information.

HI, I do believe that diet - very low fat plant based vegan diet can not only prevent - but can cure cancer. Add to that exercise and NO - ZERO alcohol.

Have you read Race for Life and Senior Fitness - the story of Ruth Heidrich who cured her cancer this way? She did have her breasts removed but the cancer had spread into her lungs and her bones. She refused chemo and radiation and followed Dr John McDougall's diet plan. She has won Ironman 6 times too! BUT when she GOT cancer, she was following what many would say was a very healthy diet - low fat dairy, skinless chicken breasts, salads with "healthy" oil dressings, etc... She needed to take it a step further.

There's podcasts too on her site.

Since there's cancer in my family as well as diabetes I follow this diet almost to the letter. My health is incredible now! What is radical? A diet full of the fruit of the Earth along with its green leafy veggies or having ones hair fall out from chemo? I would do everything in my power to prevent and cure by all possible means.

Here's to your health!

FL Very Happy

YES YES YES - Everyone HAS TO READ

The China Study - The science is clear. The results are unmistakable.

Change your diet and dramatically reduce the risk of cancer, diabetes, heart disease and obesity.

Of considerable interest was the discovery that cancer-resistant humans could only be found in summer months, likely due to higher seasonal vitamin D levels. Vitamin D is known to heighten the immune response. A recent study shows supplemental vitamin D reduces the risk for cancer by 60-77%.[American Journal Clinical Nutrition 2007 Jun; 85(6):1586-91]

The Doctors' Medical Library is designed to accomplish two objectives:(1) to help you educate yourself in natural medicine, naturopathy, biological dentistry and chiropractic and (2) to make it possible for you to find a practitioner who offers precisely the services you seek (see tabs above).
If your health and well-being depended on only one thing, that one thing would be your continuing education into matters of health. The Doctors' Medical Library is a network of 800+ integrated articles containing enough information to constitute a complete course of study in natural health care. I encourage you to use it to fully educate yourself. Begin by clicking on Library Articles, the top yellow tab on your left.

Also try to do chapter 6 of the book Natural Cures they do not want you to know about it.

PANCREATIC ENZYMES

Pancreatic enzymes form the first layer of defence the body has against cancer. The pancreas secretes digestive enzymes which assist the bodies natural defences against cancer cells.

The cancer cell is coated and protected by a protein lining (or covering). When this protein covering is removed it leaves the cancer cell exposed and the body's natural defence Leukocytes (white blood cells) comes into effect killing the cancer cells. If the body is unable to penetrate and break down the protein coating of the cancer cell then the cells will multiply and spread (Metastasise) around the body and various tumours will form as body attempts to isolate the cells from spreading.

Therefore it is extremely important we understand the role of these digestive enzymes in the body. Two enzymes in particular which are secreted by the pancreas are Trypsin and Chymotrypsin. These two enzymes have been found to dissolve the protein coating of the cancer cell allowing the body's defences to kill the cancer cells.

So it stands to reason that if we use up the bodies reserves of these two enzymes we will be left defenceless against cancer cells attacking our body. So it makes sense to supply the body with further digestive enzymes (or proteolytic enzymes) which eat away at the protein shell of the cancer cell. Like wise it stands to reason to eliminate any practices that may use up our reserves of these digestive enzymes..........

So WHAT DEPLETES OUR PANCREATIC ENZYME reserves you ask ????

Animal protein, that is Meat. Red meat, cooked meat, white meat are all forms of animal protein and place an enormous amount of stress on your digestive system. Vegetable protein requires nothing in the way of the enzymes trypsin and chymotrypsin for digestion You see, Digestion is the single most strenuous activity our bodies undergo. It can normally can take between 15 - 70 hours for our stomach to fully digest meat depending on our eating habits. For example, how we combine the foods we eat is important. We should never combine proteins with carbohydrates. Steak and fries, Chicken and pasta, eggs on toast are examples of combining proteins and carbohydrates. This is a big NO NO simply because the body produces 2 types of juices/acids to digest these food types. It produces acids for proteins and alkalis for carbohydrate digestion. When you mix these two they NEUTRALISE each other producing a rotting mass, parts of which in some cases can still be putrefying inside us for up to 70 hours later or more!!! I won't go into the theory and detail of it here and encourage to you to research it for yourself. As a result the digestion activity used for breaking down meat protein depletes the body of its digestive enzymes such as trypsin and chymotrypsin leaving little to no enzymes left to address the bodies first layer of defence when or if cancer begins to form.

In primary cancer, with only a few exceptions the tumor is neither health endangering nor life threatening. What is health endangering and life threatening is THE SPREAD of cancer through the rest of the body. There is nothing in surgery today that will prevent the spread of cancer. There is nothing in chemotherapy or radiation that will prevent the spread of cancer. How do we know? Just look at the statistics.The survival time of a cancer patient today is no different to what it was 50 years ago. The only advancement in the last 50 years has been the improvement on ways to kill tumors via chemo and radio therapy.

The only thing known to mankind today that will prevent the spread of cancer within the body, is for that body's own defense mechanism to once again function normally. Thats what Nutritional Therapy does. It treats the defense mechanism, not the tumor. [b]The tumor is simply a symptom not a cause.[/b] You need to treat the cause. If you take care of the body the body will take care of the tumor and the cancer.

The ultimate question then is, "Does nutritional therapy work?" The answer to this depends on how you define "work". If you are tumor orientated like most oncologists and doctors and are looking for something to make the tumor disappear, then No nutritional therapy does not work. If you are looking for something that will prevent the cancer from spreading and/or saving the life of a patient, then Yes, it does.

To quote Dr Philip E Binzel, author of Alive and Well
The problem with many (not all) Doctors and Oncologists in todays society is that they have been trained to be "tumor orientated". They are lump and bump doctors with no training or understanding of how nutrition relates to disease. For example, when a patient is found to have tumor, all that is discussed seems to be what is going to be done about reducing the tumor. The emphasis is always on; how is the tumor doing? Rather than; "how is the patient doing?" When they administer chemo and radio therapy to the body aimed at reducing the tumor, it has been seen that as the tumor gets smaller and smaller the patient gets sicker and sicker. At an autopsy you would hear "Isn't it marvelous we have killed the tumor" - yes, but you also killed the patient in the process of killing the tumor. When will modern medicine accept that they are treating the wrong thing?

memyselfi, I have a question: Do you have cancer? Not that you need to have cancer to have and express an opinion about it.

Even if I agreed with you that nutrition could prevent cancer, what do you suggest for the millions that already have it? Just change the diet? I believe that would be a recipe for disaster (pun fully intended).

I understand that I am going to get different reactions from different people regarding my posts (that's only human). People will either accept and maybe research it further and/or comment on their findings, they will question as you did or they will disregard it.

There has already been a number of posts from different people regarding diets / nutrition / laetrile and I was expanding on these posts. From my 10 years research I honestly believe cancer is a metabolic disease than can be prevented and treated through proper diet and nutrition (again people will have their own opinion).

My Father died from Bowel Cancer in 1998 and my Mother in 2001 from Stomach cancer. Whilst my Mother and Father had cancer and because it seemed that modern science did not have a definitive answer I started doing all my research. I have even become a vegeterian due to my findings and No I don't have cancer.

There is a plethora of information not only on the Internet but also in medical journals and medical books.

All I ask is for people to research for themselves. What harm will it do?

memyselfi, thank you for sharing a little bit about your on connections with cancer. It is certainly acceptable for someone with no connection to come and initiate a dialogue. But it is always good to know the motivations of other members of this community Smile

.

If you have read much about me, you know that both of my parents also died of cancer... my mother died in 1998 of a primary brain cancer (GBMIV) and my father died in 2006 from complications of ALL (one type of Leukemia).

You will also notice that I am a 15+ year survivor of a glioma grade II. Plus I worked in a hospital with oncology patients and attended tumor conferences for more than that. So I too am heavily invested in finding treatment... if not cures... for cancers.

It is good to have this kind of discussion even if we disagree.

Yes! Absolutely. Prevention is the best cure. Like not smoking for instance.

I'm not even going to drag out my soapbox out about the prior comment. Well, maybe a little. Wink

Over 50% of new lung cancer diagnoses occur in people who never smoked or in those who quit decades ago.

Of the 162,000+ deaths every year from lung cancer (the leading cancer killer in the U.S.), almost 22,000 people died in 2007 who NEVER smoked. People erroneously think that because they never smoked they are immune. Surprise! What a shock for them!

Women are twice as likely to die from lung cancer than from breast cancer and men are three times as likely to die from lung cancer than from prostate cancer.

You are right, smoking isn't good for you in the least, but it's not the be all and end all of why someone gets lung cancer. It's far more complex. Genetics, smoking, radon (#2 cause of lc), diesel fumes, teflon, & environmental pollutants are all risk factors for lung health.

Smoking is an addiction disease and needs to be seen as such. As this is a prevention thread, more focus needs to be directed at smoking cessation.

(Hey! For everyone who knows me -- this is a pretty short rant! Laughing

Thank you for the rant! I always hate these "statistical" proofs.

And how about the latest one - don't eat any form of cured or preserved meat. It will improve your chances of not developing bowel cancer.
