I met an old lady last week, 72 years old. really spunky old lady. several years back she was diagnosed with cancer and proceeded to tell the Dr she was not going to get treated by them. They would get paid for it and she would have to suffer. at the same time she also met four ladies diagnosed with cancer the same time she was. She went home to die under her own steam and proceeded to look what needed to be done. She changed her diet basically to the Budwig diet and got a hot tub. In the hot tub she regularly raised her body temperature to around 103, as cancer cells are known to be very susceptible to anything above normal body heat. to make the story short, she is free of cancer, without any of the treatments, surgery, chemo and the like, the other four ladies took the standard treatment and are all dead. all four of them. this is the second person I know personally who cured him/herself of cancer.
I had cancer over 35-40 years ago, and have had this on my mind for many a year, watching all kinds of people come and go.
I had surgery the first time and, when there was a question about the other breast, i went to mexico and had laetrile treatment, made of apricot pits, and that was all.
Over a year ago, i had another one, in the remaining breast, and had a modified mastectomy, not at all as invasive as the first one.
--and now i am sweating out my visit next week to the docs to see if it has gone anywhere else in my body.
Meanwhile, i am studying all kinds of natural things, because so many cancers are diet related.
Most, i believe, are related to environomental toxins that find their way into our food chain.
I will write a list of the things i am learning because i think it is pertinant, even if i dont make it through because of my age and general health.
When i find something like a vitamin suppliment, i like to use nature, instead.
For instance, many cancer people are short of vitamin d, and also selenium.
15 minutes in the sun each day, 40 percent exposed, can give you 1000 Int. Units of vitamin d.
You need 200 micrograms of selenium. Instead of taking a suppliment, 2 brazil nuts will do the same, etc.
I'm convinced that environmental toxins are stored in fats and oils, some are better than others.
When a cow grazes on soil permeated with pestacides for years and years, and these toxins are stored in his fat, along with other contaminents, we take them in and store them in our fat when we eat animal products..
Vegetarians have less cancer and heart disease, as i understand it, but are not entirely out of the water.
If we eat fish that have eaten other fish, we have a composit of all the toxins they all have taken in. It is best to eat fish that live on plants, or whatever.
Will get back to you on some of these things i am learning about cancer and diet and environment.
--oh, yes, seeds are great. When you eat an apple, chew up the seeds, and the same with grapes.
The budwig diet is made of cottage cheese, low fat, and ground flax seed. Omega 3, i think, is great for helping to flush out these toxisn, and eating a very low fat diet and roughage for the same reasons.
I need to know all you can tell me, and will tell you much more later. I hope, before i go t the doc. i might get sidetracked if the news is not so good, and i am worried because i have a bad catch in my side.
Women who take estrogen at change of life, are in danger, too. Mine is estrogen fed, so i have been eating organic meat because of the estrogens and other hormones given to animals and antibiot ics, et c.
Also, there are some phytoestrogens in some plants that can surround the dangerous estrogen in your body, and help to keep it under control.
Am learning more of this every day. It is a very interesting quest. love, alma
No one home at sues. Get to use her internet for awhile today. hoorah!
Ok, now a few more things. Cancer society says to eat 5 a day, their slogan, three fruits and 2 veggies or other way around.
They say drink green tea, most say 4 cups. Tomatoes for the lycopene, even catsup and sauces and other cooked tomatoes ok, too.
Lots of vitamin c, like orange juice, etc., cruciferous veggies like brocalli, Ugh.
Some things i've come across: Eat lots of bright colored veggies and fruits, especially, and at one sitting eat 2 different colors, like tomatoes and broccali, etc.
Dr. Cherry says:, eat anti oxidents, vitamin c, betacarotene, selenium, chrominum, tomatoes, greens, garlic and onions, soybeans, 3-4 c. green tea.
Decrease, if not eliminate, animal fats, avoid safflower, corn, peanut oil, get on momosaturated (olive oil, canola)
Increase garlic, fish oil, beta carotene, crucifers, yogurt.
Others say 1 t. tumeric a day. A lady told me to use tufu with onions or whatever to flavor it, and color yellow with tumeric in place of eggs. Will try it when i can.
Otherwise, some say drink it as a tea.
In mexic, laetrile is made of apricot pits. Chew prune pits, apple seeds, grape seeds, etc. They contain cyanide, like all seeds, and that is why u.s. wouldn't let it in, as well as that cancer is big business and that would never, never do, to let a little mustard seed mess up a good thing for them.
Seeds are b17, laetrile, amygdalin from apricots like in mexico and they recommended seeds of most kinds when you eat a grape, chew the seeds, etc.
I even have a seed cook book called little cyanide cookbook as a joke. It has some great recipes in it
The seeds in tomatoes , blueberries, and others are so good.
Cancer likes sugar. I think cancer likes all kinds of toxic things in our environment, and cyanide in seeds is anti cancer.
Keep body alkali. Cancer likes an acid body and cannot exist in alkali environment.
Watch out for carciogenics in household products and environmnent in general. Proper sleep and excerize.
Soy products have two very powerful anti cancer products in it, and other foods. Check out cancer and vitamins at top of screen, and cancer and foods, and cancer and anything else you think of.
Learn about all the foods and meds in your own back yard. See altnature.com for pics and info re plants normally called "weeds" in your own yard. Red clover is one anti cancer, among others.
Purple cone flower has powerful healing qualities to strengthen the immune system.
White pine needles have more vitamin c than a lemon.
The indians taught the earlier settlers to use it as food and med again skurvy that was killing the settlers.
Learn about the foods around you. In time of blocade in war and when shtf they can save your lives.
Use reverse osmosis water instead of tap water that includes chlorine.
To tired to do this right, but this has to do for now. love, alma
