Johns Hopkins Update

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 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 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.

A friend of mine was diagnosed with stage 4 lymphoma, his docs put him on all kinds of meds and chemotherapy but the cancer just kept getting worse and worse and he was getting more and more sick! As a last resort one of his other friends told him to go see this great naturopathic doctor that he knew and so he did....they took blood work and put him on all kinds of supplements and herbs one of the main vitamins he used in his treatment with the naturopath was 80 000 iu a day of vitamins D, he also put him on a no carb, high protein, high antioxidant diet to starve the cancer cells....well after a couple months he started getting and feeling a lot better! now he is cancer free and has been for about 5 months now!

no plastic in micro, no water in freezer no meat no milk no this no that, look i.m.o thats all fvcking b.s you get cancer if your going to get it, how can men who havnt smoked in their life die at 45 from lung cancer then men that smoke 40 a day for 70 years live to 85 and die a natural death? genetics

as much as medicine thinks it knows, they actually know fvckall about cancer, ask a doc what causes a brain tumour

[awms]

p.s high protein diet is only bad if your eating a lot of very acidic meat on a regular basis, fresh water fish and sea food are very good for you and packed full of omega 3 which actually helps reduce inflammation in the body, free range organic bison and beef are very good for you and high in CLA which also helps fight off cancer. Organic Coffee beans are amazingly high in antioxidants! (15 000-20 000 orac vaule) but the key is to get 100% organic! or chances are you coffee beans are covered in toxins!

[awms]

The best way to prevent cancer is to eat the way our ancestors did....organic veggies at every meal, clean fatty meats like fish, bison, and organic beef, and if you do choose to eat fruit make sure they are thin skin low gly***ic fruits like organic blue berries and black berries. Contrary to popular belief you should be in the sun at least 15-20 mins a day to ensure you get enouph vitamin D, you body needs minimum 3000-5000 iu's a day to keep your immune system strong and between the hours of 12 pm and 4 pm your body will make 1000 iu's a minute if your in the sun....if you live in a cold area then go buy vitamin D3 and take 5000-10 000 iu a day....taking vitamin D3 reduces your risk of cancer by up to 80%!! and the other positive effect is that you will not get sick, I have not been sick in 3 year since I started taking 5 000 iu's a day of vitamin D3, not a cold, not the flu, nothing! ever other year before that I was sick atleast twice in the winter.

If your black or dark skin you actually need a lot more sun and a lot more vitamin D! about 3 times what a white person needs so you should be taking 10 000 iu's of vitamin D3 a day minimum! or be in the sun for 20-30mins every day.

Oh and most tanning beds dont count...vitamin D comes from UVB rays and most tanning beds use bulbs that are 95-100% UVA which is the "bad" rays because they give you a better tan, you can find therapeutic tanning beds but they are rare! that are 50/50 to 100% UVB.

[DanB]

i havnt been sick in years either, not so much as a sneeze and i only started taking a multi vitamin this year and it contains small amount of d3 if any, last 2 years i have lived in uk or ireland so the sun dosnt shine

back to my point, its mainly genetics

and it hit -15c 2 years ago and about -10c this year so yes it was cold

[awms]

no plastic in micro, no water in freezer no meat no milk no this no that, look i.m.o thats all fvcking b.s you get cancer if your going to get it, how can men who havnt smoked in their life die at 45 from lung cancer then men that smoke 40 a day for 70 years live to 85 and die a natural death? genetics

as much as medicine thinks it knows, they actually know fvckall about cancer, ask a doc what causes a brain tumour

All cancer is genetic...some people will never get get cancer no matter what they do while others run a high risk! but If you never allow cancer cells to activate then they wont...cancer is 100% preventable in most people the only problem is we live in a world that it is becoming harder and harder! most brain cancer is thought to be a genetic mutation.

You the minority. Vitamin D is essential for cells to properly communicate when the body is dificiant in vitamin D the cells in the body cant pass on messages to each other and the immune system suffer significantly! Vitamin D is one of the most important if not the most important vitamin for the immune system, its the reason why we have "cold season" in the winter...cold season is really just a lack of sun light....its also the reason why are bodies have evolved in a way that we are able to store vitamin D in our fat cells for short periods of time (about a month) so that our body can protect it self if we don't get enough sun light.

[DanB]

but do you not think that people can have a naturally strong or weak immune system and also cancer cells that will or wont grow regardless of anything?

[Scabtree]

I do believe that much of this info does have a scientific basis; it unfortunately did not originate from Johns Hopkins as claimed. More info here:

http://www.hoax-slayer.com/cancer-ti...-hopkins.shtml

But, still interesting.

[DanB]

so a non smoker dead at 45 could of prevented it better than a smoker who lived to 85?

sorry but your sounding like a consultant now

I sat in front of a man who is regarded as one of the top 3 neurologist in the world, asked him the same question and his reply was '' we dont know''

Most of our ancestors also died in their 30's. By the way, just because something is organic, doesn't mean it's safer than the conventional produce/meats. You know what an organic farmer uses to prevent fungus on his crops? The use a really toxic copper solution. For an insecticide, organic farming uses the poison rotenone. By the way, that insecticide is neurotoxic to humans.

You also know in organic chicken flocks, in studies 100% of the flock tested positive for Campylobacter which is a food poisoning bacterium. Verses 33% in conventional chicken flocks. Salmonella has been tested with the same rates. And 72% of organic chickens are infected with parasites.

By the way the rate of people coming down with cancer in the industrialised western world has fallen dramatically over the last 50 years. We put a lot of attention to cancer so it seems like it's a growing threat when people aren't being diagnosed with it as often as they once were.

And finally, if the world switched to organic farming entirely, billions of people would starve to death.
