Chemotherapy And Radiation - Best Cancer Treatment?

Modern Medicine Versus Nature in Treating Cancer

Western medicine, in contrast to at least 6000 years of the practice of natural medicine, treats the body as a collection of parts instead of as a synergistic organism. When it comes to treating broken bones and injured body parts, mainstream Western medicine is unequaled. When this same approach is used to treat illness and disease - fixing or repairing the parts where the symptoms of underlying illnesses manifest themselves, modern medicine fails miserably.

In the instance of cancer, instead of addressing the causes of cancer - toxins and a weakened immune system - we see instead treatments that either slash, burn or poison away the tumors and cancer cells, which further weakens an immune system cancer has already defeated and only worsens the conditions that led to cancer to begin with.

Even if initially successful at getting rid of existing cancer cells and tumors, the end result is a weakened body which may have major organ damage and which is more susceptible to the reappearance of the original cancer, as well as other forms of cancer and diseases.

For half a century or more, we have been told that a breakthrough or cure for cancer is just around the corner, yet the death rates for cancer remain virtually unchanged. Meanwhile, effective natural and alternative treatments which address and correct the actual causes of cancer continue to enjoy much greater success than the largely failed mainstream treatments - even as these natural alternatives suppressed and come under increasing attack by the medical establishment.

Profit plays a huge role in Western medicine and, because nature cannot be patented, there is no profit in conducting studies on natural remedies for cancer and illness. In fact, if studies were to prove the effectiveness of natural alternatives and those alternatives were to be approved for use in treating cancer and other illnesses, the result would be to admit cheaper, safer and more effective competition into a fiercely guarded market. Instead, such alternatives are heavily suppressed, discredited and passed off as "snake oil" and "voodoo medicine".

The cold, hard fact is that cancer and other degenerative and chronic illnesses are big business - to the tune of hundreds of billions of dollars a year. When their only market place is our bodies, the vested interests of the trillion dollar world pharmaceutical empire, mainstream medicine and the institutions which depend on maintaining the status quo are not likely to allow such natural competition, even though the cost is millions of needless deaths and untold suffering.

A better plan for maintaining and increasing profit is to continue to bring new drugs into the market place which treat only symptoms and have serious side effects that lead to still more drugs in a never ending cycle so that by the time a male American reaches 65 years of age, he takes an average of 15 prescribed and over the counter medications every day - when it all started out with one or two conditions that could have been treated safely and effectively by natural means. A good model for profit, but a horrible one for humanity.

We now have over 15,000 patented and approved drugs, 95% of which have significant side effects. It is no accident that our doctors have been taught for generations, just as we have been, that the way to treat illness and disease is to prescribe approved medications - medications that are made by the single largest source by far of funding for medical education: the world pharmaceutical companies. What exactly has this mountain of medicine actually cured in the past half century? Certainly not cancer!

By far the most effective way to beat and avoid cancer is to remove the causes of cancer and to make your body as inhospitable to cancer and illness as possible. To understand what steps we should and can take, we should understand what we know about cancer:

We know that:

o The development of cancer indicates that our natural first line of defense, our immune system, has been defeated and that the presence of either toxins and pathogens, or some imbalance in our bodies have led to the development of cancer and enabled it to gain an upper hand.

o Cancer cannot develop without an impaired liver.

o Cancer cannot survive in an alkaline environment, nor can it survive in a highly oxygenated environment.

o Detoxing and cleansing our colons and liver helps restore balance, prepares our bodies to better be able utilize natural immune boosters and cancer fighters and paves the way to rebuilding our livers and immune systems.

o Cancer cells are diseased, impaired and/or beset by pathogens and have lost the ability to to be die naturally via cellular apoptosis and be replaced by healthy cells. These cancerous cells simply become abnormal and outlive the other cells in their normal cell life/replacement cycle and end up crowding out a territory over time.

o Iodine, vitamin D, and potassium are all vital to beat and ward off cancer.

o Fresh air, pure water and sunshine are also vital to maintain healthy bodies which can fight off and beat conditions like cancer.

o A natural diet of uncontaminated raw vegetables and raw fruits, with plenty of omega-3's and balanced nutrition has been proven to be effective in numerous natural anti-cancer protocols.

o A great number of natural botanicals and supplements, such as those containing beta glucans and other long-chain polysacharrides, the oleander remedy I have written about, Colloidal Silver, Inositol (IP-6), the ABM mushroom, South Africa's "Cancer Bush" sutherlandia frutescans, cat's claw, pau d'arco, corialus versicolor mushroom, and many others have been proven to boost the immune system, destroy pathogens, protect our cells, and beat cancer.

o Sugar feeds cancer.

And so, when we go to an oncologist and are diagnosed with cancer what is the prescribed treatment? Does it incorporate ANY of the above elements? No, sadly it does not. Our doctor prescribes what he or she has been taught: cut out, radiate or poison the symptom and do nothing to address the underlying causes and natural imbalances that enabled led to the symptom.

As a result, the way is paved for the return of the cancer or the introduction of another cancer or serious condition. Even worse, the road to further illness is often made easier due to the damage to the immune system and major organs caused by the treatment of the symptom.

Nature, on the other hand, enables us to address virtually every area of knowledge and concern. For example, the protocol I would recommend, based on what nature has to offer us:

o As soon as possible, cleanse your body to get rid of built up toxins like heavy metals and pesticides, as well as the undigested food, fecal matter and gallstones that build up in the body by cleansing your colon and liver and by chelation to rid the body of heavy metals. Such contaminations are breeding grounds for, and causes of, disease and illness. A toxic and unclean body weakens the body's immune system that should be your first line of defense. Plus, once cleansed, the body is much more receptive to the good measures you take to rebuild your immune system and fight disease.

o Cleanse your environment to the greatest extent possible and eliminate bad habits. In an ideal world, you would move to the country where there was plenty of fresh air and sunshine and less stress. In the real world you may not find that possible, so eliminate common toxins in your household, workplace and other places you spend time.

o If you have mercury amalgam fillings in your teeth, have them replaced. In many instances, this step alone has led to elimination of cancer.

o Immediately eliminate bad habits and begin building build good ones so that you will make sure that you no longer have habits that weaken your immune system and that you will be able to build your body to fight and conquer illness. A sedentary lifestyle with a poor diet, lack of pure water, sunshine and fresh air, and constant exposure to toxins will in time lead to bad health conditions. Remember, bad health habits are open invitations for illness and disease to enter your body.

o Begin and maintain a healthy immune-boosting and cancer fighting diet. A good balanced diet, pure water, fresh air, sunshine and exercise are some of the essentials. You will find that a good diet does not have to be a bad tasting diet - far from it! However, it should be noted that the very best and most healthy diet is one that is close to the diet our ancestors evolved to utilize: lots of fresh and uncooked vegetables, fruits, nuts, roots and tubers, and fish and meat uncontaminated by growth hormones, artificial fertilizers or pesticides - and little or no grain or dairy products. It should be noted that of all the foods, essentially only raw vegetables and fruits contribute to an alkaline pH.

o Rebuild and strengthen the body's natural immune system. It is very likely that a weakened immune system contributed to your illness in the first place. It is absolutely certain that a rebuilt and strengthened immune system will help you beat your illness and keep it at bay. Again, good diet, nutrition and habits are all important - they lay the foundation for a strong and healthy immune system. However, they are not enough by themselves. You should build a good foundation and then make your body a healthy fortress against disease and illness. Quite simply, disease and illness hate healthy hosts. The stronger your immune system is, the harder it is for disease to survive and grow. And, to be the very strongest you can be, you need extra measures in the form of supplements as well as the healthiest foods.

o Cleanse, restore and protect the liver before, during and after your anti-cancer and disease battle. Cancer cannot develop unless the liver is impaired to begin with. Plus, an effective cancer fighting regimen will result in the release of a cascade of toxins that are released when cancer cells die. Such a release can overwhelm an already impaired liver and can even be fatal if measures are not taken to protect and regenerate the liver. Some of the very best anti-oxidants to used to protect and regenerate the liver are the ones used in the Berkson Clinical Study: Milk Thistle (silymarin), alpha lipoic acid and selenium.

o Maintain an alkaline pH and get plenty of oxygen to the cellular level. Cancer cannot survive in the presence of an alkaline cellular pH level, nor can it survive in the presence of highly oxygenated cells. Dr. Johanna Budwig of Germany has shown that for proper cellular utilization of oxygen to take place, our diets must contain adequate amounts of unsaturated fatty acids.

o Make sure you have plenty of iodine, potassium and Vitamin D. All have been proven to be essential in beating and avoiding cancer. As mentioned above, cancer cells have lost the ability to be shut off by the body in what is called cellular apoptosis. These cancerous cells simply become abnormal and outlive the other cells in their normal cell life/replacement cycle and end up crowding out a territory over time. Iodine goes in and both does away with the surrounding cyst where cancer has set up residence and then also goes in and allows the specific shut down of the individual cells that are abnormal, diseased, or beset w/ pathogens to make room for new cells.

o Drink plenty of pure water and get plenty of fresh air and sunshine. Water is essential for all healthy life; however, regular tap water contains trace amounts of hundreds to thousands of pesticides, carcinogens and other industrial pollutants. For that reason, the author recommends only the purest drinking water, such as reverse osmosis filtered water. Don't overdo the sunshine, but sunshine is essential to the production of vitamin D, and, strange as it may sound, has been found to be essential in warding off melanoma as well as other cancers..

o Exercise in moderation. Regular exercise does not have to be grueling, but it is essential. Exercise stimulates the immune system, stimulates the production of natural human growth hormone, stimulates the production of hormones and pheromones that make us happier and healthier, and simply leads to a longer and happier life period. Innumerable studies have demonstrated the overall health benefits of exercise and the negative effects of a sedentary lifestyle lacking in exercise. It is not a coincidence that studies have shown up that those who exercise only a few hours each week have up to 50% less chance of developing many different kinds of cancer.

o The next element of beating your disease and keeping it at bay is to go on the attack. As a matter of fact, all of the elements of the this anti-cancer and disease protocol are elements of attack, because they make the body strong and inhospitable to disease. What I am talking about here is more than just making the body inhospitable to your disease - I am talking about going on the attack and wiping it out! In the case of cancer, there are many very potent anti-cancer supplements. such as the ones listed above and several others. One such supplement, named OPC (not to be confused with the European anti-oxidant of the same name), based on a remedy I have researched and written about , has been used for the past three years in South Africa to treat HIV and cancer. Of approximately 350 HIV patients, all are still alive and well with their symptoms either reversed or stabilized. Of 80 cancer patients, some in very late stages, 72 are alive and well and either cancer free or with their cancers in remission and tumors shrinking. Of the 8 that did not survive, 5 were in their very final days and could not hold down the supplement. Another three succumbed to organ failure as a likely result of prior traditional Western treatment via chemo. Compare that with the results of any mainstream medicine or treatment!

o Remember, what you avoid can be just as important as what you consume: Avoid sugar to the greatest extent possible. Sugar feeds cancer and other illnesses and causes a myriad of other health problems. Refined sugar is also the number one single cause of health problems in the entire world! Likewise avoid bread and other items containing bleached white flour, which is essentially empty and harmful calories that convert to sugar once ingested. Other items to avoid include non-fermented soy, pork, MSG, ALL charred foods and foods cooked at high temperature, aluminum and coated cookware, micro-waved food, food in plastic containers and styrofoam.

o The final key to winning your battle is your mental attitude. Remove as much stress from your life as you can and believe that you are going to win. Stress and worry accomplish nothing - worse, they are actually allies of illness and disease. You have surely heard the term "stress, the silent killer"? It's true! So you must do whatever it takes to remove stress from your life and make your mental attitude your ally. Meditate, take yoga, change jobs, retire, go fishing, find a pleasant hobby - do whatever you must to remove stress and have a positive mental outlook. Just remember, anyone who introduces or keeps worry and stress in your life is neither a friend nor an ally during this fight. And make no mistake, it is a fight - likely the most important one of your life. But it is a fight you can and will win. Think it, believe it and live it!

Some in the field of natural health will tell you that you can beat cancer through diet alone, or through diet and de-toxing. In many instances that is true, and some of the most effective and popular natural anti-cancer protocols, such as the Budwig Diet, are based on such a premise.

However, in my opinion, the more weapons you have in your natural arsenal, the greater your chances of success will be. That is why I advocate including one or more of the powerful natural supplements that have been proven to beat cancer and boost the immunes system, and which address what we know about cancer.

Our depleted soils and the introduction of modern industrial toxins and contaminants makes it hard to build a strong enough immune system through diet alone. Our immune systems were not designed to handle the multitude of modern toxins they now face, which is why cancer is largely a modern disease.

As a final note: for those of who continue to believe the big lie that the harsh and ineffective options offered by mainstream medicine (and its half century record of broken promises to deliver a cure or significant breakthrough) are superior to nature, I ask: When did God become a quack?

Diet For Cancer Patients

Article written by Paul Nison, Author/Speaker and Raw Food Gourmet Chef www.PaulNison.com -Official website of Author Paul Nison www.RawLife.com -Health E-store for all your health needs

Can diet heal cancer?

If you ask most doctors today, nothing can “heal” cancer. They will try to cut it out, burn it and kill it. Sometimes they have success in temporally slowing down the inevitable. The reason why they will never have a cure is because as long as the root cause is not removed, the problem will always be there.

Stress is a major root cause of cancer and must be reduced and eliminated. Removing stress from your life allows the body to do what it was designed to do; be healthy and disease free.

Where does diet come into play? Identifying stressful areas in your life is the first step toward reclaiming your health. Lack of enjoyment for life, money issues, worry and fear build stress. But the most common stress on the body is eating and abusing harmful foods.

Abusing foods is the most common stress to the body. People consume foods that were never meant to be in our body, they eat foods in amounts that they body can’t manage, and they eat at times they shouldn’t be eating.

Before viewing my diet suggestions, please understand that health begins with what you eliminate from your diet, not with what you add. The first step in recovery and healing is to remove the problem foods from your diet. Then you can replace them with the healthy food you should have been eating from the beginning.

Cancer can only come alive and grow in a body that is lacking oxygen. The average person today, especially someone with cancer, is walking around with a serious case of insufficient oxygen. The following tips are musts if you are serious about overcoming cancer.

First we will discuss what we should eliminate from our diet.

Processed foods

Eating highly processed foods prevents the body from receiving oxygen. Every bite taken from foods that come in a bag, container, box, can, bottle or bag is contributing to cancer. I tell everyone to be weary of eating these foods, especially foods without an expiration date. Healthy food is supposed to spoil after a few weeks, even a month. But if it lasts much longer, be weary. It’s most likely very processed with many chemicals and other drugs to prolong the shelf life of the food while shortening the life of your body.

New Foods

If it wasn’t food one hundred years ago, don’t consider it food today. New foods also have new drugs and chemicals in them in amounts that are harmful to the body. Big business has created many of these foods because they care more about your wallet than your health.

Dead Foods

If you put a food in the ground and it won’t grow, don’t put it in your body. Foods that have their enzymes in them are known as live foods because they produce and support life. You can put the seeds of these foods into the ground and you will have a tree or plant growing. Foods that lack enzymes are known as dead foods and support death. I am a teacher at the world’s foremost health institute that specializes in healing people with cancer: Hippocrates Health Institute (HHI) in West Palm Beach, Florida. (I highly suggest everyone with a cancer diagnosis or other health challenges go there. Mention my name for a discount). At HHI, they discovered key essentials to help the body heal itself of cancer. Two of the most common suggestions are to eat live foods with their enzymes intact, and include a highly-green, chlorophyll-rich diet. Keep in mind that cooking destroys all enzymes in foods and a person trying to heal from cancer should consume a 100% raw, live-food diet.

Sugars

The directors of HHI recommend that all people healing cancer should avoid all sugars, even sugars found in fruits. Most people are aware that processed sugars are not healthful, but knowledge is lacking in regards to “natural” sugars, such as those found in fruits.

Regardless of the type of sugar consumed, too much sugar can cause problems. It leads to fermentation in the body that feeds and promotes yeast growth and negative bacteria. Overeating sugary foods causes constipation and gas, and this gas can back up into the bloodstream. This is where most diseases originate–from candida to cancer and everything in between. If you want to be healthy, you must learn to cut back on sugary and starchy foods.

One last tip on things to avoid: If food has to go through the car window, it definitely shouldn’t be in your body.

Three things to consume if you want to overcome cancer

1.Eating high quality food.

If you have cancer you must treat your body the best way possible. This means only consuming food raw, ripe, fresh organic and live. Once you are healed, you can cut back to 80% of your foods meeting this criteria,  but 100% is still best.

The main part of your diet should be raw vegetables and sprouts, such as leafy green vegetables, wheatgrass, algae, sea vegetables, and sunflower sprouts. The reason these green foods are so beneficial for the body is that they contain chlorophyll—the blood of plants.

Chlorophyll is the pigment that gives trees, grasses, and leafy plants their characteristic, green color. More importantly, chlorophyll enables plants to convert the sun’s energy into nutrients that can be utilized by living organisms. Chlorophyll is similar to hemoglobin in human blood. Chlorophyll-rich, plant juices supply rich, soil-based minerals, vitamins, and chlorophyll proteins to our diet, plus it contains oxygen.

Foods high in chlorophyll include wheatgrass, which is used at health spas around the world to treat cancer and other deadly diseases, and sea algae which is available in several edible forms.

The foods you should emphasize in your diet are fresh vegetables (green vegetables are best but others are also helpful), non-sweet fruits such as cucumbers, zucchini, bell peppers and squash. For example, cucumbers, zucchini, bell peppers and squash are technically considered fruits because they have seeds. Because they are non-sweet fruits, they are delicious additions to the diet.

Also in your diet should be nuts and seeds. Soaking nuts and seeds for 6 to 12 hours releases enzymes which allows for easier digestion. It’s very easy to consume too many nuts, so be careful.

Whole grains and legumes can be eaten but it’s best to eat grains that have been sprouted first, so they are easier to digest. The least healthful grains are rye, spelt, basmati rice, white rice, wheat, barley, and corn. The most healthful grains are: millet, quinoa, amaranth, teff, buckwheat (hulled).

Of all the foods mentioned that are okay to consume, sea vegetables and sprouts are the most beneficial. These are the highest quality land and sea vegetation for our nutrients.  Some popular sea vegetables are alaria, arame, dulse, hijiki and nori.

Sprouted food is any type of seed, nut, grain, or bean that has been soaked in water, exposed to air and indirect sunlight, and if rinsed daily, has started to form a new plant, beginning with a sprout. Some examples include: almond sprouts, buckwheat sprouts, sunflower sprouts and mung bean sprouts. Sprouted foods are one of the highest forms of food you can put into your body. They are very helpful for the building of new cells, and provide the cells with oxygen. Green sprouts are very high in chlorophyll.

2. Eating at the right times.

I just wrote a new book called The Daylight Diet (the book can be purchased at www.RawLife.com.) The point of the book is to understand that we have been designed to be on schedule if we want to be healthy!

We have all the tools we need and all the intelligence to know the best schedule for us to enjoy a healthy, long, satisfying life. Of the many ideas and concepts regarding nutrition and what foods are most nutritious for the human body, the majority of people have not taken into consideration the times of eating for best digestion.

We have been designed to eat certain foods, and at certain times of the day. Just as water in your gas tank will harm the car, bad foods will harm your body. A car is made to run on certain fuel and so is our body. However, no matter what time of the day you put gas in your gas tank, it won’t make a difference. The time you put fuel in your body, however, does make a big difference.

It was our Creator who first separated the salt water from the fresh, made dry land, and planted a garden. He made animals and fish before making even one human being. He provided what we needed before He even created us. If He designed our body and He knows every single hair on our heads, I’m sure he knows what we should eat and when we should eat it.

He created the heavens and the earth, including humans, food, sun, and the moon. The sun and the moon set the schedule we have been designed to follow. The information I share in this book can lead to a healthy life only if we stop watching man’s calendar and clock and base our time by the sun and the moon each day.

When the sun is up, feel free to eat; when it is down, stop. I can’t make this advice any simpler than that! Eat your meals as long as the sun is up and it is light outside. But when it is dark and the moon is rising, your meals should end for the day. This is the number one rule of the Daylight Diet. If you stick to this important principle, you will see excellent results in your health, energy, sleep—your whole being—because this is how we have been designed to eat. Nighttime is for resting and sleeping.

Don’t eat late in the day. You will get better sleep, have better digestion, slow down the aging process, have more energy, and feel wonderful. Just stop eating late in the day—especially when it’s dark outside—and experience for yourself the great results.

Practicing temperance in eating will rejuvenate your whole body and rid you of most health problems. Your goal should be to reduce the number of meals you consume and reduce the amount of food in those meals, while making sure you are consuming the highest quality food.

The real key to success is to avoid eating at nighttime, and go to sleep on an empty stomach. Food shouldn’t be a daily struggle. I can attest that it may not be easy at first, but to be truly successful, you will have to change your thinking along with your diet.

3. Eat the right way

When eating, being in a relaxed environment is very important. It’s never healthy to eat when stressed no matter how good the food is. In addition, along with the amount of food, number of meals, quality of food, and times you eat that all affect digestion, there is more that needs to be done to keep your body healthy.

After we swallow, the food we’ve eaten is more or less out of our control. Before that, though, we have total control: Proper mastication and food combining can prevent many digestive problems.

Digestion begins in the mouth. Saliva contains an enzyme that helps break down the food and jumpstarts digestion. Chewing helps the body more readily extract the nutrients from the food and cuts down on the work the digestive system has to do. The less work the digestive tract has to do, the more efficiently it will do its job. When we don’t chew our food well, it can ferment in our digestive system. The more food is chewed, the easier it is to digest, and the healthier it will be for the body. Even raw foods can cause problems if they’re not properly chewed.

Food combining

The types of food we eat together, called food combining, play a big role in good digestion. Eating the wrong foods together or in the wrong order can sap our energy and cause fermenting and putrefaction in the digestive system.

Food combining allows for easier digestion and minimal digestive conflicts. It works like this: Every food takes a certain amount of time to digest. Eating similar foods with similar digestive times helps the body digest meals more easily; these foods are said to combine well. For example, watermelon takes about one hour to digest; almonds may take up to five hours. In view of this, eating watermelon and almonds at the same meal is not a good idea, so it’s known as a poor combination. Eating too many meals like this may cause constipation, bloating, and gas, which may lead to more serious issues.

Final Thought

The human body is amazing when we treat it the way we’re supposed to. We were designed to eat certain types of foods—raw, fresh, organic fruits, vegetables, nuts, and seeds—to keep our digestive systems moving and clean. Good health comes only when we have good digestion, and that good digestion only results when we eat properly and healthfully.

Breast cancer virtually "eradicated" with higher levels of vitamin D

In a gathering of vitamin D researchers recently held in Toronto, Dr. Cedric Garland delivered a blockbuster announcement: Breast cancer can be virtually "eradicated" by raising vitamin D levels.

Vitamin D is "the cure" for breast cancer that the cancer industry ridiculously claims to be searching for. The cure already exists! But the breast cancer industry simply refuses to acknowledge any "cure" that doesn't involve mammography, chemotherapy or high-profit pharmaceuticals.

Vitamin D is finally gaining some of the recognition it deserves as a miraculous anti-cancer nutrient. It is the solution for cancer prevention. It could save hundreds of thousands of lives each year in the U.S. alone. Even Dr. Andrew Weil recently raised his recommendation of vitamin D to 2,000 IU per day.

This is the vitamin that could destroy the cancer industry and save millions of women from the degrading, harmful cancer "treatments" pushed by conventional medicine. No wonder they don't want to talk about it! The cancer industry would prefer to keep women ignorant about this vitamin that could save their breasts and their lives.

Below I'm reprinting the full statement from Dr. Cedric Garland following the Vitamin D conference recently held in Toronto.

Statement from Dr. Cedric Garland

Breast cancer is a disease so directly related to vitamin D deficiency that a woman's risk of contracting the disease can be 'virtually eradicated' by elevating her vitamin D status to what vitamin D scientists consider to be natural blood levels.

That's the message vitamin D pioneer Dr. Cedric Garland delivered in Toronto Tuesday as part of the University of Toronto School of Medicine's "Diagnosis and Treatment of Vitamin D Deficiency" conference - the largest gathering of vitamin D researchers in North America this year. More than 170 researchers, public health officials and health practitioners gathered at the UT Faculty club for the landmark event.

Garland's presentation headlined a conference that reviewed many aspects of the emerging vitamin D research field - a booming discipline that has seen more than 3,000 academic papers this calendar year alone, conference organizers said. That makes vitamin D by far the most prolific topic in medicine this year, with work connecting it with risk reduction in two dozen forms of cancer, heart disease, multiple scleroses and many other disorders.

Dr. Reinhold Vieth, Associate Professor in the Department of Laboratory Medicine and Pathobiology at University of Toronto, and Director of the Bone and Mineral Laboratory at Mount Sinai Hospital, organized the event in conjunction with Grassroots Health - an international vitamin D advocacy group founded by breast cancer survivor Carole Baggerly.

Baggerly implored the research group to take action and encourage Canadians to learn more about vitamin D and to raise their vitamin D levels.

An estimated 22,700 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in 2009, according to the Canadian Cancer Society's latest figures.

As much as 97 percent of Canadians are vitamin D deficient at some point in the year, according to University of Calgary research - largely due to Canada's northerly latitudes and weak sun exposure. Sunshine is by far the most abundant source of vitamin D - called 'The Sunshine Vitamin' - with salmon and fortified milk being other sources. Vitamin D supplementation helps raise levels for many as well.

Grassroots Health's "D-action" panel - 30 of the world's leading researchers on vitamin D and many other vitamin D supporters - recommend 2,000 IU of vitamin D daily and vitamin D blood levels of 100-150 nanomoles-per-liter as measured by a vitamin D blood test.

Vieth pointed out that natural vitamin D levels of mammals who live outdoors in sunny climates is higher than that - up to 200 nanomoles-per liter. And Garland, whose presentation was entitled "Breast Cancer as a Vitamin D Deficiency Disease" presented data showing that raising one's vitamin D status near those levels decreased breast cancer risk more than 77 percent.

'The Sunshine Vitamin' was once thought of only for bone health, helping the body process calcium. But more recent work has shown that all cells in the body have "vitamin D receptors" which help control normal cell growth. Additionally, Garland presented new evidence that low vitamin D status compromises the integrity of calcium-based cellular bonding within tissues, which when eroded allow rogue cancer cells to spread more readily.

Grassroots Health is trying to raise vitamin D awareness among Canadians. Despite epidemic-level vitamin D deficiency in Canada, fewer than nine per cent of Canadians have ever had their vitamin D levels checked by a professional and most who have do not know their vitamin D blood level.

The Top Five Cancer Causing Foods

Ever wonder which foods should be strongly avoided by those at high risk for cancer? We can begin identifying cancer-causing foods once we know which ingredients in our food cause cancer. Some of those ingredients are food additives and chemicals used to enhance taste, while others are used strictly for appearance or to increase product shelf life. The key to avoiding cancer-causing foods is knowing which ingredients are carcinogens -- or cancer promoters -- and then reading food labels to permanently avoid consuming those ingredients.

Cancer tumors develop, in part, by feeding on sugar in the bloodstream. If you eat lots of sugary snacks loaded with simple carbs, you're loading your bloodstream with the chemical energy needed for cancer cells (and tumors) to proliferate. No biological system can live without fuel for its chemical processes, including cancer cells. Thus, one of the strategies to pursue for any anti-cancer diet is to eat low-glycemic diet. That means no refined sugars... ever! No refined grains (white flour, for example), no heavy use of sweeteners and the lifetime avoidance of sugary soda pop. Aside from starving tumors, eating foods low in sugar and avoiding simple carbs will also keep your weight in check while helping prevent blood sugar disorders such as type-2 diabetes.

What to avoid on the labels: high-fructose corn syrup, sugar, sucrose, enriched bleached flour, white rice, white pastas, white breads and other "white" foods.

The dangers of hydrogenated oils

Hydrogenated and partially hydrogenated oils -- another danger -- are developed from otherwise harmless, natural elements. To make them hydrogenated, oils are heated in the presence of hydrogen and metal catalysts. This process helps prolong shelf life but simultaneously creates trans fats, which only have to be disclosed on the label if the food contains more than 0.5 grams per serving. To avoid listing trans fats, or to claim "trans fat free" on their label, food manufacturers simply adjust the serving size until the trans fat content falls under 0.5 grams per serving. This is how you get modern food labels with serving sizes that essentially equate to a single bite of food. Not exactly a "serving" of food, is it?

Besides being a cancer factor, trans fats promote heart disease, interrupt metabolic processes, and cause belly fat that crowd the organs and strain the heart. The essential fatty acids that the hydrogenation process removes are responsible for a number of processes in your body. When trans fats replace these essential fatty acids, they occupy the same space without doing the same job. The "anchor" portion of the fatty acid is in place (which is how the body recognizes the fatty acid and puts it to work) but the chemically active part of the fatty acid is twisted, distorted, and missing vital parts.

After the hydrogenation process, the fatty acid can't biochemically function in the same way. Things like brain cell function, hormones, gland function, oxygen transport, cell wall function (keeping things in or out of your cells) and digestive tract operation (putting together nutrients and blocking allergens) are adversely affected.

Food manufacturers don't tell you this on the product label, of course. Your body needs essential fatty acids and you are programmed to keep eating until you get them. If you're only eating trans fats, you'll never feel fully satiated, because your body will never get the fatty acids it needs for essential function. Since cancer needs high blood sugar and low oxygen levels, a person with lots of belly fat who just can't seem to put down those trans fat cookies or crackers (also loaded with flour and simple sugars) presents the ideal environment for the development of cancer.

The acrylamide factor

Since trans fats are often formed during the frying process, we should also talk about acrylamides. Acrylamides are not added into food; they are created during the frying process. When starchy foods are subjected to high heat, acrylamides form. A Swedish study found that acrylamides cause cancer in rats, and more studies are under way to confirm the understanding that acrylamides also cause cancer in humans.

Sodium nitrite (and nitrates)

Food companies add sodium nitrite into certain foods on purpose. This carcinogen is added to processed meats, hot dogs, bacon, and any other meat that needs a reddish color to look "fresh." Decades ago when meats were preserved, it was done with salt. But in the mid 20th century, food manufacturers started using sodium nitrite in commercial preservation. This chemical is responsible for the pinkish color in meat to which consumers have grown accustomed. Although today the use of refrigeration is largely what protects consumers from botulism and bacteria, manufacturers still add sodium nitrite to make the meat look pinkish and fresh.

The nitrites themselves are not the problem. People get more nitrites from vegetables than they do from meat, according to research by the University of Minnesota. During the digestion process, however, sodium nitrite is converted to nitrosamine, and that's where the cancer problems begin. Nitrosamine is a carcinogen, but since it is not technically an ingredient, its presence can be easily overlooked on the packaging. Nitrosamines are also found in food items that are pickled, fried, or smoked; in things such as beer, cheese, fish byproducts, and tobacco smoke.

Knowing about all these ingredients doesn't mean there is simply a "short list" of foods that should be avoided. You have to vigilant and read labels constantly. Here are the five worst offenders:

• Hot dogs: The Cancer Prevention Coalition recommends that children should not eat more than 12 hot dogs per month because of the risk of cancer. If you must have your hot dog fix, look for those without sodium nitrite listed among the ingredients.

• Processed meats and bacon: These meats almost always contain the same sodium nitrite found in hot dogs. You can find some without nitrites, but you'll have to look for them in natural grocers or health food stores. Bacon is also high in saturated fat, which contributes to the risk of cancers, including breast cancer. Limiting your consumption of processed meats and saturated fats also benefits the heart.

• Doughnuts: Doughnuts contain hydrogenated oils, white flour, sugar, and acrylamides. Essentially, they're one of the worst cancer foods you can possibly eat. Reader's Digest calls doughnuts "disastrous" as a breakfast food, and many experts agree it's probably one of the worst ways to start the day.

• French fries: Fries are made with hydrogenated oil and fried at high temperatures. Some chains even add sugar to their fry recipe to make them even more irresistible. Not only do they clog your arteries with saturated fat and trans fat, they also contain acrylamides. They should be called "cancer fries," not French fries.

• Chips / crackers / cookies: These generally contain white flour and sugar as well as trans fats, but it's not enough to simply look for these ingredients on the label; you have to actually "decode" the ingredients list that food manufacturers use to deceive consumers. They do this by hiding ingredients (such as hiding MSG in yeast extract, or by fiddling with serving sizes so they can claim the food is trans fat free, even when it contains trans fats (the new Girl Scout cookies use this trick).

Besides avoiding these foods, what else can consumers do to reduce their risk of cancer? The main things are simple: Eat unprocessed foods and base your diet largely on plants. Consume foods that have omega-3 fats and other essential fatty acids. Eat lots of fruits and vegetables; many common ones have known cancer-fighting properties. Get regular vigorous exercise, since tumors cannot thrive in highly oxygenated environments. Keep your blood sugar stable to avoid being an all-you-can-eat buffet for cancer cells.

Eat foods high in natural vitamin C, a nutrient that deters the conversion of nitrite into nitrosamine and promotes healthy immune function. Make sure you get adequate amounts of cancer-fighting vitamin D through exposure to sunlight -- about 10 to 15 minutes each day if you have fair skin, or ten times as long if you have dark skin pigmentation. Stay well hydrated to ensure that your body rids itself of toxins. Avoid smoking and don't use conventional fragrance, cosmetics and personal care products -- virtually all of them contain cancer-causing chemicals.

Preventing cancer is actually quite straightforward. Even the World Health Organization says that 70 percent of all cancers can be prevented with simple changes in diet and lifestyle. The truth is that most people give themselves cancer through the foods, drinks and products they choose to consume. In my opinion, over 90 percent of cancers are easily preventable.

By the way, don't you find it interesting that the cancer industry seems to have no interest whatsoever in urging people to avoid eating sodium nitrite, or to stop using cancer-causing skin care products, or to get more sunlight on their skin so they can prevent cancer with vitamin D? As you'll read in many other articles I've written here, it is my firm belief that the cancer industry has no interest whatsoever in preventing cancer, and it primarily interested in treating cancer for profit. This view is generally agreed upon by noted cancer experts such as Dr. Samuel Epstein and Dr. Ralph Moss. See www.PreventCancer.com to learn more from Dr. Epstein.

Can Getting More Sleep Reduce Cancer Risks?

Getting more sleep is THE easiest way I know
to reduce your cancer risk

I'm not the kind of guy you have to lecture about getting more sleep. I LIKE to sleep and I've ALWAYS been an eight-hours-a-night guy — sometimes accompanied by gales of laughter from friends and family who think it's weird to be in bed by ten.

But it seems I'm in the minority. Skimping on sleep has become the American norm. And just as all the goody-goodies warned them, Americans pay a terrible price in their health, including a greater danger of cancer. By some estimates, sleep deprivation is the #1 health problem in America.

Eating yourself to death — that I can understand. Prime rib and Black Forest cake might be worth dying for. The pleasure is undeniable. But wrecking your health because you never get enough sleep? To me, that's weird!

The 24/7 electrified, wired world

The wonders of our electrified world have stolen a decent night's sleep from us. Before electricity, most people went to bed when darkness fell. During the winter, that wasearly, and people slept a lot. Candles and lamp oil were expensive in a world where the average family made a few hundred dollars a year (if they were lucky). So the sensible thing to do was go to bed.

Then came the electric light bulb.

But it really took television to turn us into addicts to excitement and stimulation. It's safe to say that, pre-television, everyone got plenty of sleep. Once the tube was ensconced in every home like an altar, millions stayed up to watch the Tonight show and assorted other late-night distractions. And these days, sleep also loses out to the Internet, e-mail, and who knows what else.

Me, I wouldn't give up an hour's sleep to watch Leno (or Johnny Carson, back in the Stone Age). But, as I said, I'm in the minority.

How sleep-deprived are YOU?

Take this simple five-point test... suggested by James Maas, PhD, pioneer in the field of sleep research, sought-after speaker, and author of the New York Times Best Seller book, Power Sleep:

1.       Do you need an alarm clock to wake up in the morning?

2.       Do you hit the snooze button several times before finally dragging yourself out of bed?

3.       Do you sleep in on weekends?

4.       Do you fall asleep the minute your head hits the pillow?

5.       Do you crave a nap to get through the day?

Did you answer 'yes' to any of these?

If so, consider yourself sleep-deprived.

You're got plenty of company. Consider:

·  Sleep problems are reaching epidemic levels, now estimated to be the #1 health related problem in America.¹

·  43% of respondents report that daytime sleepiness interfered with their work and other normal daytime activities.²

·  In a 2002 "Sleep in America" poll of 1,000 adults, nearly a third said that they need at least eight hours to avoid feeling sleepy the next day. However, their average sleep time was only 6.9 hours on weeknights and 7.5 on weekends.³

·  Young people are worst offenders. Nearly every high school and college student is seriouslysleep deprived, getting an average 6 hours per night, but needing 9-1/2 hours to be fully alert.

·  Falling asleep the moment your head hits the pillow is a sure sign of sleep deprivation… a well-rested person takes 15-20 minutes to fall asleep.

·  A NCERx 4,000-person survey found that only 19% were diagnosed with a sleep disorder, yet 74% said they got less sleep than they needed. Forty-six percent said they missed what they needed by at least three hours!⁴

But wait — it gets much worse than just feeling worn out.

Short-Term Consequences of Sleep Loss

Lack of sleep has dramatic affects on your health and quality of life.

If you lose one night's sleep, you'll be irritable and clumsy the next day. You either feel exhausted, or you feel hyped because you're running on adrenalin (and caffeine, no doubt).

After a second night's sleep loss, most people have trouble concentrating and will make mistakes on routine tasks. Three missed nights, and they start to hallucinate and lose grasp of reality.

If you get just a few hours of sleep each night, over time you incur a large 'sleep debt' — and you start to see the above problems, not by losing a whole night at once but by cumulatively losing a little sleep EVERY night.

You can feel the short-term consequences of sleep loss right away. They're obvious. But it's the long term impact on your health that can be super devastating (beyond the obvious risks of drowsy driving and workplace accidents).

Hidden Long-Term Risks of Sleep Debt

As if the above costs aren't enough, new studies show that chronic sleep deprivation is one of the biggest predictors of obesity.

Your quality and quantity of sleep dictates the hormonal activity that regulates appetite — via leptin and ghrelin. Sleep deprivation causes your leptin levels to drop and ghrelin to rise dramatically. Leptin signals 'fullness' so if it's disrupted, you end up craving food — especially carbs. Ghrelin sets off your hunger pangs.

I think it's fascinating that sleep correlates with the other bad habits that are killing millions.

In a national study of nearly 10,000 adults, 32-49 year-olds who sleep less than 7 hours were significantly more likely to be obese.⁵

Another study of 18,000 adults found that those who regularly sleep less than four hours per night were 73% more likely to suffer from obesity.⁶

Wow!

So... Those who sleep the least weigh the most? Who would have thought losing weight was so easy you could do it in your sleep?

Too little sleep also causes decreased immune function. Sleep deprivation adversely affects your white blood cell count and your body's ability to fight infections. It makes your immune system vulnerable and less able to fight off potentially cancerous cells.

And then comes the real biggie...

Sleep Deprivation Can Cause Cancer

New studies suggest that how you sleep may determine how well your body fights cancer.

In fact, working the graveyard shift may increase your cancer risk.

Recent studies indeed show that women who worked nights for years seem more prone to breast cancer. And men who work the night shift have higher rates of prostate cancer.⁷

When animals have their light-dark schedules reversed, they're more likely to grow cancerous tumors and they die more quickly.⁸

Several reports from the Harvard Nurses' Health Study link insufficient or irregular sleep to an increase in colon cancer and breast cancer.

How Does Insufficient Sleep Impact Cancer?

Sleep problems affect two hormones that influence cancer cells.

Cortisol regulates your immune system and releases certain natural killer cells that help fight developing cancer cells. Cortisol levels peak at dawn, suggesting sleep's role. (This is the same stress hormone triggered during anxiety.)

The second hormone is melatonin, produced by your brain during sleep. Scientists think it may have antioxidant properties that help prevent cellular damage leading to cancer.

Melatonin can only be released in total darkness, and may cause a reduction in estrogen production. Researchers speculate that experiencing light late at night may interfere with melatonin release, allowing estrogen to rise, and promoting the growth of breast and endometrial cancers.

I read this notion years ago. Since then -- for what it's worth -- I avoid turning on the lights if I have to get up in the night. It may help avoid a disruption in melatonin production, and I can say this for sure: it makes it easier to get back to sleep. Nothing wakes me up like a bright glare of light when I've been deeply asleep and my pupils are dilated as big as saucers. If you can't feel your way around in the dark, the next best thing is using a small nightlight.

Melatonin is also the prime suspect in the 'shift work theory'. People working in artificial light at night may have lower melatonin levels, raising cancer risk.

Further, certain processes like cell division and DNA repair happen at regular times. If your body does something at an unusual time — like produce insulin in the middle of the night to digest food — a chain reaction of biological mistakes is set up.

Potentially even worse than the graveyard shift is flipping between night and day shifts. Also at risk are frequent long-haul travelers and insomniacs, who experience similar sleep disruption.

You need a dark night's sleep... eight pitch-black hours every night. So why don't people get their eight hours?

Key Causes of Sleep Troubles...

Why is quality sleep becoming such a rarity?

In the NCERx survey cited above, 65% of respondents named stress as a major factor in insomnia. Closely following that, 53% said they felt work or school didn't leave them enough time to sleep.

Ten Tips for Improving Your Sleep

1.       Reduce stress as much as possible. Don't sweat the small stuff!

2.       Put some quiet space between your day and your night. Get to your room 20 minutes before bedtime, and relax with light reading, meditation, or quiet music, keeping the lights low and the atmosphere relaxing.

3.       Reserve your bedroom only for sleeping and sex. Get the TVs, computers, and other non-sleep items out of there.

4.       Complete exercise at least 3 hours before bedtime.

5.       Get sunshine every day. Your body needs the extremes of light and dark.

6.       Eat properly. Healthy people sleep better. Take your evening meal at least 2 hours before bedtime, preferably 3. Never overeat just before bedtime.

7.       Make your bedroom pitch-black, quiet, and cool. Use black-out curtains. Use ear plugs if there's street noise or noise from other family members in nearby rooms. Run the AC if appropriate.

8.       Avoid stimulants within six to eight hours of bedtime… including all soda, coffee, tea, sports drinks, and aspirin. I'm convinced that caffeine has a more profound effect on people than they realize. They don't know that it affects their wakefulness 12 hours or more after they drink it. And here's a surprise: alcohol is not viewed as a stimulant, but it DOES interfere with sleep patterns.

9.       Set a regular bedtime and keep it on weekends also. If you can live without an alarm clock, do so. You'll wake up when your body is rested.

10.    Try relaxation techniques… Counting sheep really works — you bore yourself to sleep. Or imagine yourself on a beach or in the warm sun.

You may be one of those people who have been sleepy for so very long you don't know how it feels to be wide awake.

Let the world wait till tomorrow — not your sleep. It is a fundamental health need.

Once you truly start sleeping again, you'll love the joy of sleep's restoration and rejuvenation, and the energy you'll have — not to mention its cancer-protective benefits

That is why the Stress Reduction CDs from www.instinctbasedmedicinestore.com are so important. The Hannover Health Institute concluded after a major study that these 20 minute CD audio sessions equal 8 hours of deep restful sleep and are the perfect cancer and illness prevention tool. 20 Minutes a day can save your life.

Natural substance in breast milk destroys cancer cells

Breast milk is documented to be the best food possible for infants and breastfeeding is known to have enormous health benefits for moms, too. It turns out, however, that breast milk has even more amazing properties. Swedish researchers have found that it contains a compound that kills cancer cells in humans. 

The substance, dubbed HAMLET (which stands for Human Alpha-lactalbumin Made LEthal to Tumor cells), is comprised of a protein and a fatty acid. Although found naturally in breast milk, scientists are not sure if HAMLET develops spontaneously or if it requires interaction with the acidic digestive system of a newborn. 

HAMLET was first discovered by chance several years ago by researchers who were investigating the antibacterial properties of breast milk. Scientists soon began testing it on cancer cells and the findings were nothing short of astounding. 

For example, studies in the lab showed that HAMLET was able to kill 40 different types of cancer cells. What's more, in animal studies the natural substance was found to be effective in killing one of the most deadly types of brain cancers -- glioblastoma.

However, HAMLET was only recently tested for the first time on humans. Scientists at Lund University and the University of Gothenburg in Sweden tried HAMLET on patients suffering from cancer of the bladder. The result? After treatment with the breast milk-derived therapy, the cancer patients excreted dead cancer cells in their urine.

The Swedish research team is working to see if the compound can be eventually developed into a viable cancer therapy. Next on their agenda: tests to see if HAMLET can treat skin cancer, a variety of brain tumors and tumors in the mucous membranes.

So what exactly does HAMLET do that makes it such a potent cancer fighter? In a paper recently published in the science journal PLoS One, scientists Roger Karlsson, Maja Puchades and Ingela Lanekoff of the University of Gothenburg discussed research showing how the substance appears to interact with cell membranes. Using a fluorescent red tracking substance to show the exact location of HAMLET, the researchers clearly demonstrated that the compound binds to the membranes of tumor cells, killing them. However, HAMLET does no harm whatsoever to surrounding healthy cells.

The Only Answer To Cancer

The Only Answer to Cancer is Dr. Coldwell's newest book in his upcoming series. Proudly edited and promoted by Author Autobahn! Available September 2009!

The Only Answer To Cancer

In my opinion the unofficial number one cause of uncured cancer, suffering from cancer and dying unnecessarily of cancer is the US Government. Especially the FTC and FDA and part of this is the American Cancer Association. (suppressing every natural cancer treatment or cure) and the AMA by misinforming the public and the media by spreading false information)

These government agencies, criminal or incompetent politicians and government employees keep proven cancer cures by creating laws that will create illness ( like vaccination ) or prevent healing. Codex Alimentarius is just one example.

The government is stating: that only a drug can cure, treat or prevent any disease. And that in itself is in my opinion treason because no drug can cure, treat or prevent any disease. Therefore they let or make people unnecessarily die -- by law. And the proof of scientific facts is out there.

The medical profession wants to make money and lots of it! Therefore it is not enough anymore just to treat with their worthless and dangerous approaches the sick people. Now they are recruiting constantly new customers by the lie of early detection saves lives and other fraudulent statements. They are making more money on worthless diagnostic techniques like Mammography that actually cause cancer and have not scientifically proved value. The only outcome is that if they find something (that they tell you is bad -- often the diagnosis is just wrong) earlier they can just " treat " you earlier and therefore longer but it will not expend your life spam or save your life. It will absolutely destroy your quality of life for the time you may have left no matter what and it usually will kill you earlier. Because in my experience people today do not die anymore of cancer they die of the side effects of the "treatment".

If the government or at least major parts of it would not be in it -- there would not be laws that allow GMO food -- gene manipulated food that causes cancer and other diseases. There would not be laws that forbid educating the public about the healing powers and possibilities of herbs, supplements and healthy food. There would not even be a discussion about outlawing organic farming. And most of all there would not be mandatory or government condoned or endorsed vaccination because experience and science shows that there has never been a safe and affective vaccine.

First of all there is no such thing as a disease! The body functions perfectly in balance or it doesn't. If it is out of balance -- a malfunction happens and we call these symptoms. The medical profession has just arbitrarily given a specific set of symptoms names that they call diseases, conditions or disorders. They just made the names and the illness up. The medical profession wants to look like as they would know what is wrong with their patient's body and mind and that they know how to fix it. That is the reason why they give these sets of symptoms different names and even invent names for treatments or drugs that are impressive sounding but usually worthless because they are treating isolated symptoms instead of the entire human with body, spirit, emotions and mind.

There is basically only one kind of cancer. Cancer is cancer; there are not different forms of cancer. But they name it after the body part it appears to sound like they know what is going on and what to do. Even though the symptoms can be different, that still does not change the fact that all cancer is virtually the same.

They have no answer to cancer and no cure and what they call treatment is nothing else then slaughters, mutilation, poisoning and killing the human system, body and spirit. The only cancer cure is to find and eliminate the cause of the imbalance in the human body that is the root cause of cancer or any other disease for that matter and eliminate it with nature or good given natural herbs, supplements or techniques like stress reduction. If the body is back in balance the cancer disappears on its own the same way it came. No treatment needed just support for the healing process and the support of health. The only requirement is to give the body the nutrition its needs to create and keep a healthy body and mind and not to continue the negative behavior that lead to the cancer in the first place.

But realistically there is no such thing as a disease there are only symptoms that are a call to action for us to make us aware of the fact that we are doing something wrong and we need to change it or our body will deteriorate and expire.

Remember: "There is no healing force outside the human body. The body creates the health challenge and only the body can reverse that!"
