Cancer
If you
have been diagnosed with the Cancer is NOT a Death Sentence A full-fledged cancer is not something that happens overnight. It takes literally years to feed a potential cancer. Two to three decades are not unusual from the time a single cell got mutated, to the time a tumor appears. The good news is that the healthy food we eat may interfere with the progress of the cancer. When certain chemicals get into our body, they "activate" and can initiate certain cancer. But when we take the right type of food, we can help block the mutation process. The abundance of anti-oxidant that we get from fresh fruits and vegetables can neutralize the destructive work of free radicals and carcinogens. May I be bold to say that phytonutrients can actually even intervene and stop the further growth of the precancerous cells, repair and heal some damaged cells. When you take the right foods even after cancer is diagnosed, it is possible that your life is prolonged and the pain reduced. Studies have proven that people who eat fruits and vegetables daily have their cancer risk slashed by about 50 percent. And I'm not talking about eating huge amounts of fruits and vegetables, but just meeting your daily requirement. It could be just having a glass of juice, once or twice a day. Read why your juices should be extracted from a gear juicer. It is amazing what fresh fruits and vegetables can do, so do not underestimate the power of taking a glass of juice (vary your juice) daily. The phytonutrients from the juice can reach every cell in your body to repair the damage, heal and nourish them.
Diet
Suggestions/Lifestyle Changes Most people ignorantly eat whatever they fancy until a health problem strikes. Only when they are suffering that they began to question what went wrong. It is not too late if they realize early on that it is the food that they have been eating that had caused the health problem, and they change their dietary for better health food. But don't wait until it's too late. Eliminate from your dietary: mass-market, processed foods that are bleached, frozen, canned, sugared, preserved, packaged, and laden with chemicals. Is it any wonder that we and our loved ones are sick and malnourished when we consume these commercialized foods?
Animal fats and transfats are known to promote cancer. They act as fuel in promoting tumor growth and stimulate bile acids in the colon that drive cells toward mutation. Instead, take monounsaturated oil and omega-3 fatty acids (from fish, olive oil and flaxseed oil) to deter tumor growth. Stressed lifestyles, polluted air and water, unhealthy work environments, all choke our once-healthy cells, mutating them and causing them to grow abnormally. We can control where we work and how we work. We can control our lifestyles, and we can certainly control what we put into our body. We have a choice, so choose wisely and choose healthy. Green is the color of healing. The greener the better, as it contains the highest dietary sources of chlorophyll. The "lifeblood" of plants is remarkably similar to hemoglobin in human blood, the substance that carries oxygen in our body. Experiments have shown that our body is able to convert chlorophyll into hemoglobin, thereby enriching the blood. Chlorophyll acts as our internal healer, cleanser, antiseptic, cell stimulator, rejuvenator and red blood cell builder. And the finest source of this proteinous compound is found in spirulina, chlorella, barley grass, wheatgrass, kale, spinach, celery, alfalfa sprouts and all green vegetables.
The citrus fruits are another "anti-cancer package" that we should include in our juicing. They contain natural substances that have powerful phytochemicals to neutralize carcinogens: carotenoids, flavonoids, terpenes, limonoids, coumarins, gluthatione and glucarate.
