Guest guest Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 Dear Ar, I fully agreed with your comments. We are all different in different ways: genes, cells systems, immune systems, body chemistry, etc. We must address all causes and issues to determine the best alternative treatments for each of us. One thing I will recommend: Consult one or two good medical doctors who practice holistic treatments in cancers. Don't be your own doctor and formulate the treatments without proper knowledge and experience. Jim In a message dated 11/25/2009 10:34:42 A.M.

Putting all your eggs in one basket won't do anyone any good - especially you. If the raw food vegetarian diet worked for everyone, then we would have never met because I never would have developed cancer. ar > > > > How Cleansing Cures Cancer: One Woman's Story > > The relationship between unhealthy eating and the development of disease > > is undeniable.

Guest guest Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 Ar's " A cautionary tale " is very telling and we all need to absorb what is being said here. Everyone agrees the value of good food consumption and she is not saying this is not good. In fact I tell people that point out someone with a 'cold' or 'the flu-like symptoms' that eat well as being a failure, that perhaps the person would have a worse condition if they had not eaten well. We just do not know. One thing that makes sense and that is, if a person eats well and develops a serious illness, a change in their diet is probably not going to help them as much as someone eating poorly. Ar is also right about Nothing Works for all people all the time just as nothing causes cancer all the time. Not every smoker gets lung cancer and not everyone that drinks overly hot beverages regularly gets Esophageal cancer. The 'always' and 'every times' along with 'never' and especially, 'The Only Cure For Cancer is...' do not have a place in our discussion, however, we can all agree eating better, not smoking and eliminating as many 'detrimental' things as possible, makes sense. I'll use 'possible' because it is almost impossible to avoid everything that is potentially harmful.................and then there is stress.......and I'll stop there before I get stressed. Joe C.

Guest guest Posted November 28, 2009 Report Share Posted November 28, 2009 Arlynsg it interesting you mention Soya products soya Beans have isoflavones in them they mimic testosterone but don't act like testosterone, taking the testosterone place on the prostate cancer receptor blocking the cancer from getting any more like testosterone. I have soy mike with isoflavones in it, every day in a cup of green tea and papaya leaf I do put art/sweetener and a tea spoon of bicarb soda in it.

Guest guest Posted November 29, 2009 Report Share Posted November 29, 2009 Ar I'm sorry your severely allergic to soy, but you may find this even more interesting I once ask Why don't doctor treat patients using isoflavones to treat both breast cancer and prostrate cancer I use it and it works for me on my advance prostate cancer . I have been trying to get a good answer on this from doctors and other forums for a while now. You see both breast cancer and prostrate cancer are gland cancers. and both are a sex hormone dependent cancer, and most times both cancers are adenocarcinoma. I know that two of the four isoflavones, blocks the sex hormone receptor on adenocarcinoma, so why don't they use it, it boils down to one thing poor research with lab animals back in the 1940 and 1950. that has carried on up to now. I got this next bit From the book Foods that fight cancer by Beliveau phD & Denis Gengras phD page 107 The anti-cancer properties soybeans Hormone -dependent cancers such as breast cancer and prostate cancer are the primary causes of death from cancer in Western society; they are however, rare in Asian populations. The omnipresence of soy and soy products in Asian diet and there quasi-absence in our own suggest that the huge difference observed in western and Eastern cancer rate might be genistein to reduce response to hormones, including the over stimulation of cell growth in specific organs or tissues.

Guest guest Posted November 29, 2009 Report Share Posted November 29, 2009 Ar wrote, in part: " They also eat a generally better diet than the western diet. Their soy consumption is actually moderate - and fermented. However, their iodine consumption through fish is large. " The above probably takes care of the Japanese and other race issues as regards diet and wellness issues. The Japanese as others, live a completely different, or once did, lifestyle than Westerners however, with high stress levels pushed on them through their educational pursuits. We eat a heavily Omega 6 diet while their fish consumption negates that with Omega 3s. Then Ar shows the 'Fermented' issue re Soy and the Iodine consumption via fish. I think they also consume a lot of kelp. Over the past few years one element of soy has been heralded and that is Genestein which some say is beneficial in certain cancer situations. I keep thinking of my daughter-in-law a veggie that consumed lots of soy products, all the 'fake' meat substitutes and her quick-growing breast cancer. However that's just one case I can point to and that's what most of us do regularly. Joe C. Joe C. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 29, 2009 Report Share Posted November 29, 2009 17 Beta Estradiol is still a phytoesterogen that is able to dock in place of testosterone thus preventing feeding testosterone driven cancer.

Guest guest Posted November 29, 2009 Report Share Posted November 29, 2009 Hi and Thank you arlynsg, for your reply The reason I am asking about fruit in ones diet is. I have advance prostate cancer, I also have hi amount of vitamin and mineral supplements in my diet. The main one is 6 grams of vitamin C spread out though out the day. But I found in the pass no mater what I did , when ever I have any sugary foods bread or fruit my prostrate would play up, and I would get urine retention, when I went off the sugary foods, the wheat products and the fruit, it would get better, is this the same for you Ray _____ From: arlynsg Sent: Sunday, November 29, Hi Ray, There is simply no way to figure out if my diet slowed my cancer down. Some days I firmly believe that it did. And other days, I believe that it didn't. I didn't have cancer when I started the diet, so the amount of fruit I ate has no bearing on my cancer. In other words, if I had gone on the diet to fight cancer, I would not have eaten as much fruit. I'm not a big lover of fruit, so my fruit consumption was limited to one fruit smoothie a day. Generally, two bananas and something else - oranges, strawberries, etc. I ate two salads a day along with the smoothie. ar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 29, 2009 Report Share Posted November 29, 2009 Sorry ar being new to this group, I'm not use to these post, I should have notice, I think it was from Joe Dennis still cant under stand why isoflavones are not used, I take an extract my doctor told me about it called Trinovin it made from red clover each 40mg tablet contains trifolium pratense extract equivalent to dry herb 2.5 standardised to isoflavones 40mg I read about a research doctor with prostate cancer who was doing research on red clover he was due to have his prostrate out in the following two weeks so he started taking 4 x 40mg of red clover extract he ask for and other researcher to have a look at his prostate the researcher found that the cancer in his prostate had reduce by half. This is why I went on it I sill say if it works for prostate cancer why dos it not work for breast cancer. All the best Ray From: arlynsg Ray, that wasn't me that said you had made a mistake.

Guest guest Posted November 29, 2009 Report Share Posted November 29, 2009 Vicki where did you get this from. With what your saying I've been on soy milk for two years now, I feel better then I felt in years with what you saying I cant under stand why my youngest daughter did not die. When she was a baby, form all the soy she had. You see years ago I lost one of my business, and around the same time we had a little girl. The strain of the lost one of my business and a new baby was terribly on my wife and I. Then when my wife breast milk stoped. (my daughter was just two month old at the time ). We found my daughter could not have formula or milk. So my wife feed her on soy milk. It look to me like it did her no harm. She grow up to be a find young lady She was married three years ago. last year they decide to have a baby. She had a little boy he's 6 weeks old. On Friday. His birth weight was 9.3lb. My grand son and my daughter look healthy to me. What I'm saying is, over the many years since the soy milk. Seem to have no ill effect on my daughter, or my grandson, or me. So where dos this research come from. Ray From: ohlyvicki I hope know one following this diet is eating any soy products. Soy is one of the most geneticly motified grops along with the following High levels of phytic acid in soy reduce assimilation of calcium, magnesium, copper, iron and zinc. Phytic acid in soy is not neutralized by ordinary preparation methods such as soaking, sprouting and long, slow cooking. High phytate diets have caused growth problems in children. Trypsin inhibitors in soy interfere with protein digestion and may cause pancreatic disorders. In test animals soy containing trypsin inhibitors caused stunted growth. Soy phytoestrogens disrupt endocrine function and have the potential to cause infertility and to promote breast cancer in adult women. Soy phytoestrogens are potent antithyroid agents that cause hypothyroidism and may cause thyroid cancer. In infants, consumption of soy formula has been linked to autoimmune thyroid disease. Vitamin B12 analogs in soy are not absorbed and actually increase the body's requirement for B12. Soy foods increase the body's requirement for vitamin D. Fragile proteins are denatured during high temperature processing to make soy protein isolate and textured vegetable protein. Processing of soy protein results in the formation of toxic lysinoalanine and highly carcinogenic nitrosamines. Free glutamic acid or MSG, a potent neurotoxin, is formed during soy food processing and additional amounts are added to many soy foods. Soy foods contain high levels of aluminum which is toxic to the nervous system and the kidneys. Blessings to all, Vicki Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, it probably wasn't happening much when your daughter was a baby. It has happened more in the last ten years.

Guest guest Posted December 1, 2009 Report Share Posted December 1, 2009 Raspberries are one of the fruits whose seeds contain B17 in respectable amounts. That could be one of the reasons in addition to the high antioxidant value.  However, NEVER assume one thing is a fix-all...hit it (cancer) with all you've got, and make permanent changes to your lifestyle, diet, etc...cause if you don't chances are good it will come back.  Just my perspective, as I am in this battle myself.  Beth  From: jpking@... <jpking@...> Subject: Re: [ ] Re: How Cleansing Cures Cancer: One Woman's Story Date: Tuesday, December 1, 2009, 12:38 PM  Who are they?

Guest guest Posted December 1, 2009 Report Share Posted December 1, 2009 Here is more on that cheers Ray http://www.jonbarron.org/baseline-health-program/09-01-2001.php * Consuming one cup of red raspberries per day (40 mg of ellagitannins) prevents the development of cancer cells. At low concentrations, it slows the growth of cancer cells; at higher concentrations, it tells cancer cells to kill themselves. For example, cells infected with the human papilloma virus (which is linked to cervical cancer), when exposed to ellagic acid experienced apoptosis, or normal cell death. * Red raspberry ellagitannins slow the growth of abnormal colon cells in humans. * Tests reveal similar results for breast, pancreas, esophageal, skin, and prostate cancer cells. The ellagitannins also produce a breakdown in human leukemia cells. * Another way that ellagitannins protect your body is through G-Arrest. G-Arrest means that the ellagitannins stop cells from mutating in the first place. If cells don't mutate, then we don't get cancer. This is very important when you understand that that every single day of your life you produce anywhere from a few hundred to as many as 10,000 cancerous cells in your body as part of your normal metabolism. In tests conducted by the Hollings Cancer Institute with Ellagic Acid, G-Arrest began in 72 hours in both breast and cervical cancer. * Red raspberry ellagitannins prevent destruction of the P53 gene by cancer cells. P53 prevents mutagenic activity in cervical cells. * Red raspberry ellagitannins protect human cells against cancer-causing agents in tobacco smoke, food additives, and petroleum-based substances. Ellagitannins act as scavengers to " bind " cancer-causing chemicals, making them inactive. The ellagitannins inhibit the ability of other chemicals to cause mutations in bacteria. Red Raspberry ellagitannins also protect DNA by blocking carcinogens from binding to the DNA. * European medical studies also demonstrate that red raspberry ellagitannins lower the incidence of birth defects, promote wound healing, reduce heart disease, and may reduce or reverse chemically induced liver fibrosis. In addition, the ellagic acid produced from the ellagitannins has anti-bacterial and anti-viral properties Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
