CANCER - The whole story



There are two types of Cancer..

1. Benign

2. Malignant



Benign is an early stage , known as Tumour and

Malignant is an advanced stage , which is fatal.



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.



These cancer cells can be detected by the PAP'S TEST or KAPOSI TEST,

No Matter how much they are in numbers

(If there is only one, then it will be detected).

In this mutation in telomerase enzyme, is tested. (Dr. Mani Verma)



Cancer cells occur between 6 to more than 10 times in a person's lifetime.

When the person's immune system is strong the cancer cells will be destroyed

and prevented from multiplying and forming tumours.



When a person has cancer it indicates the person has multiple nutritional deficiencies.

These could be due to genetic, environmental, food and lifestyle factors.

To overcome the multiple nutritional deficiencies,

changing diet and including supplements will strengthen the immune system.



Chemotherapy involves poisoning the rapidly-growing cancer cells and also destroys

rapidly-growing healthy cells in the bone marrow, gastro-intestinal tract etc,

but can cause organ damage, like liver, kidneys, heart, lungs etc.



Radiation while destroying cancer cells also burns, scars and

damages healthy cells, tissues and organs.



Initial treatment with chemotherapy and radiation will often reduce tumour size.

However prolonged use of chemotherapy and radiation do not result in more tumour destruction.



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.



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.



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 M�nuka 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 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.


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 build-up.

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.

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.

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.

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.
