ABOUT YOUR DIET

  
PLEASE READ, MAYBE YOU HAVE SEEN THIS BEFORE, BUT IT DOESN'T HURT TO READ AGAIN TO REMIND US OF EVERYTHING ABOUT CANCER PREVENTION.  PLEASE READ TO THE END, SEE WHAT DIFFERENT FOODS DO TO HELP OR EVEN HURT,  I DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT MILK CAUSING CANCER, (LITTLE ONES MAIN SOURCE OF DRINK AND FOOD. This is worth reading..... 



Johns Hopkins Update – 
This is an extremely good article. Everyone should read it.
 
AFTER YEARS OF TELLING PEOPLE CHEMOTHERAPY IS THE ONLY WAY TO TRY ('TRY', BEING THE KEY WORD) TO 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 tumors.
 

4. When a person has cancer it indicates the person has
 nutritional deficiencies. These could be due to genetic,
 but also to 
environmental, food and lifestyle factors. 

5. To overcome the multiple nutritional deficiencies,
 changing
 
 diet to eat more adequately and healthy, 4-5 times/day 
   and by 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, gastrointestinal 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 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 
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 other meat, 
  like chicken. 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 be an 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 becomes putrefied 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 bodies 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, un-forgiveness 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
. 

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 cause 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.
Please share this with your whole email list.........................
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.


This is an email  that  was forwarded to me (TL) While I agree to all of it, I have to add that milk is important in the development of healthy bones in children. Of course, everything in moderation because if you eliminate something all together the consequences can be VERY DIFFICULT to deal with!

I Did Not Know..Nor do I Care

I will feature articles about the human anatomy. I don't know if it's of value or funny.
I ran across this one on a public forum in my private chat. Of course I was over hearing my own family, so it couldn't be so bad right? Girls! Scheesh!  With that I salute you! For with out you I would not be here! Is is funny? I don't know, I have audio problems, but I saw the "E" , I copied, pasted and ran. Ba!

Occasionally I return to an article to make sure the site has not been  removed or retracted, only to find it has been redirected. With that said, now this becomes just a "strange" site though informative none the less!

D'YOU EAT?






Dear Thomas,
Earlier this morning, we emailed requesting that you call your senators and ask them 
to support critical food-safety legislation when they return to Washington.
The subject line in that message said that the vote was in two weeks. 
However senators will be voting on this legislation NEXT WEEK
 – just days from now.
We apologize for the error and multiple emails. But we know how important your call 
is and want to make sure you have the correct information.
We don't have much time. Please make your call today! 
Even if you are calling after business hours, leaving a message with the 
talking points below will make a big difference.
Sincerely,
The Make Our Food Safe Coalition
Dear Thomas,
Four people in Texas have recently paid the ultimate price 
for a meal – with their lives. 
An outbreak of illness caused by Listeria in bagged celery killed them 
and sickened ten people in recent months. And over the weekend, 
the nation's biggest egg seller recalled 288,000 eggs after a test confirmed 
Salmonella at its supplier's farm.
As you read this, your senators are preparing to head back 
to Washington, DC where they will cast their vote on critical food
-safety legislation. 
We told you previously thatSenate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) 
filed a cloture motion which is a way to end the delay tactics and allow 
a bill to move forward for a final vote. Now, we need your help to make 
sure your senators vote "Yes!" on this important public health measure.
CALL 1-(877) 481-9966 and tell your senators:






1. Your name and where you live
2. You VOTE and food safety is important to you 
and
3. Please Vote "YES" for cloture to move S. 510, the 
FDA...
 
Food Safety Modernization Act forward and "YES" 
for its final passage.

The coming weeks presents the final opportunity to pass strong 
food-safety reform legislation in this Congress. 
Your senators are home right now and we're asking you to make
a toll-free call to their district office and deliver a simple message 
to support the cloture motion to end delays and debate, and vote
to give the bill final passage.
CALL 1-(877) 481-9966 NOW!
Have you been keeping track of
all the food recalls and outbreaks this year?






 We have – and it's not pretty. The evidence keeps piling up
that 
something has to be done to fix our broken food-safety
system. Let's start now.

Deliver your message TODAY!
Thank you for standing up for safe food.
Sincerely,
The "Make Our Food Safe" coalition      (AND ME!! TL )
P.S. TIMESAVER TIP: When you call the hotline, you can bypass
 the message at any point by pressing "1" to be connected directly 
to your senator's office. Our line can only connect to one office per call.
 To speak to your other senator, please hang up and call right back and
 you will be patched through to that office.

...BUT IF I DID.... !!!!

    Don't get me wrong! It is important that we support the use of lipstick! Lipstick is GOOD!
As a survivor of cancer, I support "WINGS" and ANY and ALL support groups related to this
menacing monster. Some of us are "accomplished" some have only "just" started our lives,
some of us are in the middle of raising our children, (and THAT'S not easy), and then some of us 
were ready to "throw in the towel" when everything seemed so bleak! So when you bounce back from the "BRINK", you stand for a cause! It's the least you can do for Man AND Womankind!
NOW CHECK OUT YOUR LIPSTICK!
      
I don't know! You tell me!
Read what it says about this on snopes.com.  In the Search box type in "Lead in Lipstick" then click on the first entry they bring up on this subject.  It says that e-mails with this claim have been circulating the net since 2003 and that basically it is false.  The writer does a lot of investigation with the government regulators and the lipstick manufacturers and concludes that there is little or no risk of cancer through the use of lipstick in the U.S.A. There are strict guidelines on the amount of lead used in any product, although none specifically for lipstick.



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. 

This information is being circulated at

Dioxin Carcinogens cause cancer,
Especially breast cancer

Support Shawna Hernandez in the 2010 Walk to Cure Diabetes








Greetings!


I'm writing to you to ask for your support in a very special cause.

This year, I'll be taking part in the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation's Walk to Cure Diabetes along with a half-million other walkers across the country. Our goal: To raise $90 million to help fund research for a cure for type 1 diabetes and its complications.

Type 1, or juvenile, diabetes, is a devastating, often deadly disease that affects millions of people--a large and growing percentage of them children.

Many people think type 1 diabetes can be controlled by insulin. While insulin does keep people with type 1 diabetes alive, it is NOT a cure. Aside from the daily challenges of living with type 1 diabetes, there are many severe, often fatal, complications caused by the disease.

That's the bad news... and yes, it's pretty bad.

The good news, though, is that JDRF is making steady progress toward a cure. In fact, JDRF funding and leadership is associated with most major scientific breakthroughs in type 1 diabetes research to date. And JDRF funds more type 1 research than any other charity worldwide.

I'm writing to ask for your support because now more than ever, EACH of us can be a part of bringing about a cure. Each of us can make a real difference

Won't you please give to JDRF as generously as you're able?

Together, we can make the cure a reality.

Thank you,

Shawna Hernandez

ABOUT FRUIT


It's long but very informative
We all think eating fruits means just buying fruits, cutting it and just popping it into our mouths. It's not as easy as you think. It's important to know how and when to eat.
What is the correct way of eating fruits?
IT MEANS NOT EATING FRUITS AFTER YOUR MEALS! * FRUITS SHOULD BE EATEN ON AN EMPTY STOMACH.
If you eat fruit like that, it will play a major role to detoxify your system, supplying you with a great deal of energy for weight loss and other life activities.
FRUIT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT FOOD. Let's say you eat two slices of bread and then a slice of fruit. The slice of fruit is ready to go straight through the stomach into the intestines, but it is prevented from doing so.
In the meantime the whole meal rots and ferments and turns to acid. The minute the fruit comes into contact with the food in the stomach and digestive juices, the entire mass of food begins to spoil....
So please eat your fruits on an empty stomach or before your meals! You have heard people complaining - every time I eat watermelon I burp, when I eat durian my stomach bloats up, when I eat a banana I feel like running to the toilet etc - actually all this will not arise if you eat the fruit on an empty stomach. The fruit mixes with the putrefying other food and produces gas and hence you will bloat!
Graying hairbaldingnervous outburst, and dark circles under the eyes all these will NOT happen if you take fruits on an empty stomach.
There is no such thing as some fruits, like orange and lemon are acidic, because all fruits become alkaline in our body, according to Dr. Herbert Shelton who did research on this matter.  If you have mastered the correct way of eating fruits, you have the Secret of beauty, longevity, health, energy, happiness and normal weight.
When you need to drink fruit juice - drink only fresh fruit juice, NOT from the cans. Don't even drink juice that has been heated up. Don't eat cooked fruits because you don't get the nutrients at all. You only get to taste. Cooking destroys all the vitamins.
But eating a whole fruit is better than drinking the juice. If you should drink the juice, drink it mouthful by mouthful slowly, because you must let it mix with your saliva before swallowing it. You can go on a 3-day fruit fast to cleanse your body. Just eat fruits and drink fruit juice throughout the 3 days and you will be surprised when your friends tell you how radiant you look!
KIWI: Tiny but mighty. This is a good source of potassium, magnesium, vitamin E & fiber. Its vitamin C content is twice that of an orange.
APPLE: An apple a day keeps the doctor away? Although an apple has a low vitamin C content, it has antioxidants & flavonoids which enhances the activity of vitamin C thereby helping to lower the risks of colon cancer, heart attack & stroke.
STRAWBERRY: Protective Fruit. Strawberries have the highest total antioxidant power among major fruits & protect the body from cancer-causing, blood vessel-clogging free radicals.
ORANGE : Sweetest medicine. Taking 2-4 oranges a day may help keep colds away, lower cholesterol, prevent & dissolve kidney stones as well as lessens the risk of colon cancer.
WATERMELON: Coolest thirst quencher.. Composed of 92% water, it is also packed with a giant dose of glutathione, which helps boost our immune system. They are also a key source of lycopene - the cancer fighting oxidant. Other nutrients found in watermelon are vitamin C & Potassium.
GUAVA & PAPAYA: Top awards for vitamin C. They are the clear winners for their high vitamin C content. Guava is also rich in fiber, which helps prevent constipation. Papaya is rich in carotene; this is good for your eyes.
Drinking Cold water after a meal = Cancer! Can u believe this?? For those who like to drink cold water, this article is applicable to you. It is nice to have a cup of cold drink after a meal. However, the cold water will solidify the oily stuff that you have just consumed. It will slow down the digestion. Once this 'sludge' reacts with the acid, it will break down and be absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food. It will line the intestine. Very soon, this will turn into fats and lead to cancer. It is best to drink hot soup or warm water after a meal.
A serious note about heart attacks HEART ATTACK PROCEDURE': (THIS IS NOT A JOKE!) Women should know that not every heart attack symptom is going to be the left arm hurting.. Be aware of intense pain in the jaw line.. You may never have the first chest pain during the course of a heart attack . Nausea and intense sweating are also common symptoms.. Sixty percent of people who have a heart attack while they are asleep do not wake up. Pain in the jaw can wake you from a sound sleep. Let's be careful and be aware. The more we know the better chance we could survive...
A cardiologist says if everyone who gets this mail sends it to 10 people, you can be sure that we'll save at least one life. 
Read this....It could save your life!!



I AM NOT GOING TO ARGUE WITH THIS! ARE YOU?
