LATEST CANCER INFO....UP DATE=HEALTH=

AFTER YEARS OF TELLING PEOPLE CHEMOTHERAPY IS THE ONLY WAY TO COMBAT CANCER, JOHNS HOPKINSFINALLY STARTING TO TELL YOU THERE IS AN ALTERNATIVE WAY...  Cancer Update from Johns Hopkins

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.

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 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 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 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 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. 

1. No plastic containers in micro.

2. No water bottles in freezer.

3. No plastic wrap in microwave. 

Johns Hopkins has recently sent this out in its newsletters. This information is being circulated at Walter Reed Army Medical Center as well. Dioxin chemicals cause cancer, especially breast cancer. Dioxins are highly poisonous to the cells of our bodies. Don't freeze your plastic bottles with water in them as this releases dioxins from the plastic. Recently, Dr Edward Fujimoto, Wellness Program Manager at Castle Hospital , was on a TV program to explain this health hazard. He talked about dioxins and how bad they are for us. He said that we should not be heating our food in the microwave using plastic containers. This especially applies to foods that contain fat. He said that the combination of fat, high heat, and plastics releases dioxin into the food and ultimately into the cells of the body. Instead, he recommends using glass, such as Corning Ware, Pyrex or ceramic containers for heating food. You get the same results, only without the dioxin. So such things as TV dinners, instant ramen and soups, etc., should be removed from the container and heated in something else. Paper isn't bad but you don't know what is in the paper. It's just safer to use tempered glass, Corning Ware, etc. He reminded us that a while ago some of the fast food restaurants moved away from the foam containers to paper The dioxin problem is one of the reasons. 

Please share this with the whole list of your love ones.

Also, he pointed out that plastic wrap, such as Saran, is just as dangerous when placed over foods to be cooked in the microwave. As the food is nuked, the high heat causes poisonous toxins to actually melt out of the plastic wrap and drip into the food.. Cover food with a paper towel instead.

RADISH: INCLUDE THIS ROOT VEGETABLE IN YOUR DIET

Radish Is A Root Vegetable Radish is not a fruit. It is a root vegetable, like a carrot. It resembles beets and turnips in appearance and texture, but has its own distinct flavor. Radishes can be white, red, purple or black, long, cylindrical or round in shape. It belongs to the same vegetable family as broccoli, cauliflower and Brussels sprouts and offer many similar cancer-fighting benefits.     5 Main Varieties There are five main varieties of radish. The red globe variety is small, round and oval in shape. It is also called button red radish. They can have diameter of 1-4 inches. These radishes have solid and crisp flesh. The black variety of radish is turnip-like in shape. These radishes have a dull black or dark brownish skin. When they are peeled, one can see the white flesh. They taste quite pungent, and are drier than other varieties. However, they have a longer shelf life compared to most radishes. The Daikon ( Japanese ) variety is native to Asia. These are very large carrot-shaped radishes. Daikons have white flesh which is juicy, and a bit hotter than red radish. White icicle is another variety that is long and grows up to half a foot and is tapered in shape. These radishes have a white flesh which is milder than the red variety of radishes. The fifth variety is theCalifornia mammoth white. This type of radishes have oblong-shaped roots, and have flesh that tastes slightly pungent.     Nutritional Value of Radish #1  Radishes are known for their anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties #2  They belong to the cabbage family, and have vitamin C, potassium, sodium and traces of other minerals #3  Radishes are low in saturated fat and very low in cholesterol #4  They are a good source of riboflavin, vitamin B6, calcium, magnesium, copper, manganese #5  Radishes are an excellent source of dietary fiber, folate, vitamin C and potassium     Health Benefits of Radish #1  Radish are very good for the liver and stomach. It helps to detox and purify blood and thus very helpful in jaundice. It checks the destruction of red blood cells during jaundice by increasing the supply of fresh oxygen in the blood. Black radish is preferred more while treating jaundice. #2  Radishes are rich source of roughage, which are indigestible carbohydrates. This facilitates in digestion, helps in retaining water and curing constipation, thus providing relief in piles. Also, its detoxifying power helps to get rid of piles faster. #3  Radish is a diuretic, and thus helps in increasing urine production. The juice of radish helps in treating inflammation and burning feeling during urinating. Hence, is very helpful to treat urinary disorders. #4  Radish are a very good source of dietary fiber, and can be helpful in natural weight-loss. After eating them, one will feel full for longer. #5  Being a good detoxifier and rich source of vitamin C and anthocyanins, it helps to cure many kinds of cancer, particularly cancers related to intestines, stomach, colon and kidney. For example, Daikon radish inhibits the formation of dangerous chemicals in the body. Also, red radish has lycopene in it. Lycopene can dramatically help to lower the risk of prostate cancer. #6  Due to its detoxifying and anti-carcinogenic properties, it is useful in treating leukoderma. Radish seeds are powdered and soaked in vinegar and then applied on white patches. #7  Due to its vitamin C, phosphorus, zinc and vitamin B6 content, radish are used in treating many skin disorders. It helps to maintain the moisture of the skin, and also disinfect many rashes. #8  Radish is an anti-congestive and helps in treating many respiratory system-related problems. It is also rich in vitamins and a good disinfectant, hence, radish are used in protecting the respiratory system from many infections.     Practical Use #1  You can simply juice radish and drink immediately. Can add watermelon or pineapple, etc. #2  You can slice and add it to salad, making the dish visually-inviting as well. To make your salad even more crunchy, you can soak washed-&-trimmed radishes in ice water for a couple of hours and then serve them. It enhances their crispness and flavor. #3  Add as an extra ingredient to usual family-consumption, snow-boiled nourishing soup that may comprise lean pork, pork bones, carrots, onion, snow-ear, red dates, etc
