Alternative cancer cure

AFTER YEARS OF TELLING PEOPLE CHEMOTHERAPY IS THE ONLY WAY TO TRY AND
ELIMINATE CANCER, JOHNS HOPKINS IS FINALLY 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 tumours.

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 sma ll 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 no urish 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.

Mechanisms of action of cartilage degeneration

Proteoglycans form the articular surface of the joints and undergo continual breakdown and renewal
Matrix degeneration exceeds synthesis during cartilage degeneration resulting in progressive loss of proteoglycans and charged sulphate groups.
During aging there is reduced numbers of chondrocytes that are able to manufacture full sized extracellular matrix molecules.
There may be reduced activity of specific glycosyl and/or sulfotransferases that add individual sugar units and sulphate groups to the growing glycosaminoglycans chains, resulting in problems for proteoglycan sulfation.
Proteoglycan sulfation is necessary for fluid retention in the cartilage and smooth joint functioning.
Reduced nutrient sugar supply to chondrocytes may lead to a loss of proteoglycan production and cartilage degeneration.

Effect of glucosamine and chondroitin sulphate
Glucosamine and Chondroitin sulphate act as readily available sugar to feed the glycosaminoglycan of the chondrocytes.
Combined adminstration of the above two is more effective than one alone.


Other effects of glucosamine and chondroitin sulphate
May reduce matrix destruction.
1.Glucosamine inhibits interleukin-1-beta-induced proteoglycan catabolism by inhibition of the cleavage enzyme aggrecanase and production of inflammatory mediators such as prostaglandin E metalloproteinases and the downregulation of glucuronosyltransgerase.
2.Chondroitin sulphate is anti inflammatory and may inhibit the action of several proteases which destroy cartilage and cytokines secreted by leukocytes and chondrocytes.

LIPSTICK INFORMATION

Something to consider
Next time you go shopping for
Lipstick......

This comes from someone
Who works in the breast cancer unit at
Mt. Sinai Hospital , in Toronto .

From: Dr. Nahid Neman

If there is a female you care anything about,

Share this with her. I did!!!!!

I am also sharing this with the males on my e-mail list,
Because they need to tell the females

THEY care about as well!

Recently a lipstick brand called 'Red Earth'

Decreased their prices from
$67 to $9.90.

It contained lead.

Lead is a chemical which causes cancer.

The lipstick brands that contain lead are:

CHRISTIAN DIOR

LANCÔME

CLINIQUE

Y.S..L

ESTEE LAUDER

SHISEIDO

RED EARTH (Lip Gloss)

CHANEL (Lip Conditioner)


MARKET AMERICA-MOTNES LIPSTICK.


The higher the lead content,


The greater the chance of causing cancer.


After doing a test on lipsticks,

It was found that the Y.S.L. Lipstick
Contained the most amount of lead.

Watch out for those lipsticks
Which are supposed to stay longer.


If your lipstick stays longer, it is
Because of the higher content of lead.


Here is the test you can do yourself:

1. Put some lipstick on your hand.


2. Use a Gold ring to scratch on the lipstick.


3. If the lipstick colour changes to black,

Then you know the lipstick contains lead.

Please send this information to all your girlfriends,

Wives and female family members.

Mind Agitators

A) Caffeine:
Can cause:

1. nervousness.
2. Anxiety.
3. Insomnia.
4. Irritability.

Acts by:

Increased elimination of calcium from the body.

Sources:

1. Coffee- about 150 mg per cup.
2. Black and some green teas, about 80 mg per cup.
3. Cola, 30-45 mg per cup.

B) Refined Sugar.

Advert effects on the body:

1. May cause hyperactivity.
2. Increased anxiety.

Action through:

Vitamin B, especially thiamine is needed for the digestion of sugar. Excessive sugar consumption depletes vitamin B resources required for the normal activities.

Caution:

For some people, too little sugar can cause hypoglycemia which produces symptoms like trembling and anxiety.

C) Alcohol

Can produce a temporary sedating effect on the central nervous system.

High dose of alcohol will produce a stimulating effect.

It is addicting.

Acts By: Destroying Vitamin B

D) Nicotine

Can produce a sense of relaxation and pleasure. Yet more and more is needed over time.

Reduced intake will produce symptoms like anxiety, irritability, restlessness and insomia.

That is the reason why it is so hard to quit smoking.

Acts By:

• Nicotine triggers the release of Dopamine in the brain, which produce a sense of relaxation and pleasure.
• Destroying thiamine

Main souce: Cigarettes

Nutrients which help us to calm down

A) Calcium

• It acts as a gatekeeper to transmit signals between the nerve cells.

Deficiency:
In the parasympathetic nervous system, it will hinder the process of signal transmitting which tell the body to slow down.

Source:
Tofu, green leafy vegetables, dairy products.


B) Amino Acids

1. Trytophan:

Convert to serotonin after entering the brain. Serotonin has a calming effect on the body.
Sources: Milk, Sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds.

2. Glutamine: 80% 0f amino nitrogen is derived from here.
Sources: Food high in protein: Fish, meat, beans, and dairy products.

3. Gamma-Amino Butryic Acid (GABA)
It is a neutrotransmitter that slow down activities between brain nerve cells. So it has a mild relaxing effect.

The Calming Vitamins

A) Vitamin B1/Thiamine.
Deficient will cause:

1. Increased nervousness
2. Increased level of adrenalin
3. Sleep disturbance

Sources:

• Fish , whole grain, wheat germ, peanut and meat.

B) Niacin/Niacinamide(Vitamin B3)

Functions:
Maintaining healthy nerve function
Niacin: vessel dialator.
Niacinamide: Can decrease anxiety symptoms

Sources:
Whole grain, Peanut, fish, meat, yeast.

C) Choline.

Functions:
It is a component of acetylcholine, a primary transmitter of nerve impulse in parasympathetic nervous system.
So it helps to calm the body down.
Sources:
Wheat germ, egg yolk, oatmeal, cabbage, and cauliflower.

D) Riboflavin or Vitamin B2
Functions:
Help to assimilate amino acids.
Sources:
Eggs, meat, dairy products and green leafy vegetables.

E) Vitamin B6/Pyridoxine

• Helping the synthesis of serotonin, which help a person to relax; Melatonin which help a person to sleep and dopamine, which give a person a feeling of happiness.
• Helps in the formation of neurotransmitters which regulate mood.
• Help amino acids to transmit signals between nerve cells

Sources:
potatoes, bananas, raisin, bran cereal, tuna.

-----Studies by scientists of Duke university

White bread may increase cancer risk

Eating more than four slices of white bread a day may double the risk of kidney cancer--- A study by Italian scientists on the diet records of 2300 people.

Reasons: White bread like refined sugar has high glycemic index. It may increase the blood sugar and insulin level. This spur the growth of cancer cells.

Healthy way: Reduce carbohydrate intake, and eat bread with 100 % whole grains
