i don't pretend to know whether this is true or not, but i intend to ask my doctor at my next exam. ------------------------------------------------------
AFTER YEARS OF TELLING PEOPLE CHEMOTHERAPY IS THE
ONLY WAY TO TRY ("TRY" IS THE KEY WORD) AND
ELIMINATE CANCER, JOHN HOPKINS IS FINALLY STARTING
TO TELL YOU THERE IS AN ALTERNATIVE WAY .
Cancer Update from John 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.
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 color. Better alternative is Bragg's
aminos or sea salt.
b. Milk causes the body to produce mucus,
especially in the gastro-intestinal tract. Cancer
feeds on mucus. By cutting off milk and
substituting with unsweetened soya milk cancer
cells are being starved.
c. Cancer cells thrive in an acid environment. A
meat-based diet is acidic and it is best to eat
fish, and a little chicken rather than beef or
pork. Meat also contains livestock antibiotics,
growth hormones and parasites, which are all
harmful, especially to people with cancer.
d. A diet made of 80% fresh vegetables and juice,
whole grains,seeds, nuts and a little fruits help
put the body into an alkaline environment. About
20% can be from cooked food including beans. Fresh
vegetable juices provide live enzymes that are
easily absorbed and reach down to cellular levels
within 15 minutes to nourish and enhance growth of
healthy cells. To obtain live enzymes for building
healthy cells try and drink fresh vegetable juice
(most vegetables including bean sprouts)and eat
some raw vegetables 2 or 3 times a day. Enzymes
are destroyed at temp. 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.
CANCER UPDATE FROM JOHN HOPKINS HOSPITAL , U S
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 causes 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.
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.
This is an article that should be sent to anyone
important in your life.

You know, BFW, it gets so confusing, doesn't it? Remember when broccoli had "cancer causing agents"? Then I think it was eggs..... All I know is that four of the six people in my family had or have cancer. My brother and myself are the only ones that haven't. Is it environmental? Is it genetic? Do alternative treatments work? We (my family) don't know the answer. And if I were diagnosed with Stage 3 or 4 cancer, I don't know what route I'd take -- chemotherapy vs. alternative.
BTW, it was a very interesting article, which I promptly printed out. Thanks.

My sister's doc told her the same thing about everyone having cancer cells in their bodies...sometimes they become active and sometimes they stay dormant. All kinds of factors will wake them up...she said sugar is one of those factors, sweets feed the little beasties. There were a lot of other ones...but I tuned out after sweets...I like my chocolate way too much! :wink:

I can't comment on the content, but the info was not issued by John Hopkins:
http://www.snopes.com/medical/disease/cancerupdate.asp
Any info like this that is forwarded to you should be taken with a HUGE pinch of salt. But of course, salt is bad for you :wink:
