Proven Cancer Fighting Foods and Substances

Evidence suggests that certain mushrooms have cancer fighting properties, and boost the immune system.

According to The Guardian...

Could mushrooms be the cure for cancer?
Mushrooms are being hailed as a miracle cure for cancer. But can a shiitake stir-fry really work wonders? 

Behold the mighty mushroom. Neither plant nor animal, the mysterious fungus is a class, or kingdom, of its own, and has fascinated cultures around the world for centuries. But while they do make a tasty omelette filling, does the real magic of mushrooms lie not in their flavour, but in their potential to combat one of our biggest killers – cancer?

The ancient Egyptians believed eating mushrooms brought long life. While their scientific method was perhaps not entirely sound, modern scientists investigating the medicinal properties of the organism are beginning to produce some fascinating results. There are thousands of species of mushroom growing in the wild, but most studies have focused on three main varieties – reishi, maitake and shiitake.

Reishi, otherwise known as ganoderma, has been used in Chinese medicine for 2,000 years and numerous studies have investigated its much-vaunted anti-cancer and immune-boosting properties. In a paper published last year in the US's Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) journal, a team of scientists linked its use to cancer-cell death. The team, from the Taiwanese research centre Academia Sinica, found that F3 polysaccharides, a type of carbohydrate molecule found in reishi mushrooms, can induce antibodies to recognise and kill antigens associated with tumours or cancer cells.

Coffee: Amazing Anti-Cancer Benefits  

After a few years of drinking mainly 'caffien free' Red Bush tea, - during and following my alternative cancer healing program, I have gradually begun to include several cups of coffee per day. This has certainly given my energy levels a significant boost. But why now decide to include coffee?

At least six studies have shown that people who drink coffee on a regular basis are up to 80% less likely to develop Parkinson's disease, with three studies showing the more they drink, the lower the risk! That in itself is quite remarkable. 

Other research has shown that drinking coffee can:

* Reduce risk of colon and liver cancer by some 25%,

* Slash risk of skin cancer by some 40%,

* Drop risk of liver cirrhosis by 22%

* Lower risk of gallstones by nearly 50%.

As I suffered from colon cancer, the above statistic may obviously have some relevance, and may offer further protection.

As stated previously, there are many foods and substances that help to limit cancer risk and work to prevent cancer. It makes sense to consume and employ these things, in reasonable moderation of course. Obviously it is unwise to consume large amounts of caffein, and it is somewhat addictive.

New Update

According to this latest study, drinking plenty of coffee has a HUGE protective effect..

Huffington Post: August 2015

Drinking Coffee Could Boost Bowel Cancer Survival Rates, Research Shows

A study of nearly 1,000 treated patients found that those who consumed four or more cups of coffee a day were 42% less likely to see their cancer return than non-coffee drinkers.

They were also 33% less likely to die from cancer or any other cause.

The effect of coffee was dose responsive, increasing as more of the beverage was consumed. Two to three cups a day produced a more modest benefit, while one cup or less offered little protection.

Lead scientist Dr Charles Fuchs, director of the Gastrointestinal Cancer Centre at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in the US, said: "We found that coffee drinkers had a lower risk of the cancer coming back and a significantly greater survival and chance of a cure."

All the patients had stage III bowel cancer, meaning the disease had spread as far as the lymph nodes near the original tumour.

Under normal circumstances, such patients had a 35% chance of cancer recurrence after surgery and chemotherapy, said Dr Fuchs.

Despite the results, he was cautious about recommending coffee as a potential alternative treatment for people with bowel cancer.

"If you are a coffee drinker and are being treated for colon cancer, don't stop," he said. "But if you're not a coffee drinker and wondering whether to start, you should first discuss it with your physician."

Curcumin...Derived from Turmeric:

In recent times curcumin has hit the headlines for its potential for fighting cancer, in fact, cancer hates the stuff!!

Foods to Fight Cancer:

Essential foods to help prevent cancer by Richard Béliveau, PhD

There are many foods and substances which science is now discovering to have serious cancer fighting ability. This is a great book to have on your bookshelf. Its focus is on cancer prevention, and employing the arsenal of phytochemicals present in these specified foods to keep your body a cancer-free zone. Obviously these foods also play a major role in helping to heal cancer too.

This book makes an ideal gift for family or loved ones. What better way to show you care about them and their health, especially as cancer has now become so common, with around one in three people now getting cancer.

All of the following are PROVEN to have strong anti-cancer action:

Green tea,     blue berries,     curcumin,     raspberries,

red wine,    dark chocolate, (cocoa)    onions,   garlic,

tomato's,     cabbage,   broccoli,   and many others.

There are a host of cancer fighting foods, and most are plants fruits berries or herbs. You will notice that none appear to be meat!!

Meat and dairy don't have cancer fighting ability!

i.e. pork chops don't fight cancer!!

Beef burgers don't fight cancer!

And bacon has no cancer fighting potential!

In fact the evidence suggests the opposite is true!  These things actively promote cancer. The above facts must tell us something! (i.e. that it's important to minimize meat and maximize plant based foods if you want to avoid cancer or eliminate it.

Why Cancer is Like a Frog

The Science of Failure... as Cancer Outsmarts Chemo Drugs!

Image: Office.com

Please allow me to explain why cancer is like a frog. A bizarre thought, but it involves a CORE PRINCIPLE...that might explain the following dilemma in fighting cancer; why chemo drugs often fail... or even make the situation far worse. You see, all lifeforms (including cancer) are programmed to SURVIVE...

 "Current strategies fail because cancer cells EVOLVE new ways to beat drugs -- or hide from them. Today's surgery, radiation and chemotherapy cannot always find and destroy them before they destroy us." (curecancerproject.org)    

http://www.curecancerproject.org/beta/page.php?s=overview&p=overview

The current talk in the science world is about how cancer is able to outsmart their drugs.

According to the science based web site Cure Cancer Project: 

"After 50 years and 200 billion dollars we have not cured cancer. Last year alone, over 570,000 Americans and 7,000,000 people worldwide died of cancer. Why?"

(A sobering thought is that the vast majority of the above victims will have been treated with conventional toxic treatments... such as chemotherapy!)

Unfortunately, they fail to see that the PROBLEM is the...TOXIC TREATMENT!

Chemotherapy drugs are designed to interfere with natural processes...with toxic effects.

ACCORDING TO SCIENTISTS, IT IS PROBABLE THAT TOXIC CARCINOGENIC CHEMICALS TRIGGERED THESE CELLS TO MUTATE IN THE FIRST PLACE, (TO CREATE CANCER) SO WHY ARE THEY SO SURPRISED THAT THESE CELLS CONTINUE TO MUTATE AND EVOLVE WHEN LATER ATTACKED BY MORE TOXIC CARCINOGENIC CHEMICALS??? (PATENTLY THAT'S HOW HUMAN CELLS OFTEN NATURALLY REACT TO TOXIC CARCINOGENIC CHEMICALS.)

Hint: chemotherapy drugs are declared to be carcinogenic.

Should you be stupid enough to attack a tiger with a spade, you will probably get a ferocious and frightening response. Trying it again with a bigger and better-designed spade, will probably end with a very predictable outcome!

This is the nature of the beast. But this is a feature of most biological organisms. To survive they must fight, adapt, change or mutate. We see this with viruses and super-bugs.

Why cancer is like a frog: 

 It is said that if you put a frog into a pan of hot water, it will leap out instantly with immense speed! Injured perhaps, but alive!

Yet if you put a frog into cold water and heat very gently, it will fail to realise the danger and so will slowly be overcome, and gradually cooked to death.                                                                                        

                                                                                                                        Image: Office.com

Please note: The above is a essentially a metaphor. Whether literally true is not too important. Some experiments done in the 19th century suggest this happens, if the water is heated very very slowly. The main point being that if hit with a massive and obvious threat to life, reaction is automatic and instant, as per natures common built-in survival mechanism.

In the hot water scenario, the frog is equipped with a natural inbuilt reflex or auto-response, which helps it survive any such threat or danger. (Survival mechanisms are common in living things)

In the cold water situation, the frog was duped by a plan based on knowledge of how nature tends to work in most species. (The auto survival mechanism is nullified or disarmed)

Likewise, cancer cells respond to toxic assault, trying to survive by any means possible. Some will likely adapt and mutate in the wrong way, and die out. Others will mutate in a way that has resistance to the drugs. Patently only the toughest and best adapted will survive such toxicity. These then become the new generation, with added capability and more deadly survival mechanisms.

Of course much of this need not happen. Natural non-toxic treatments are akin to the COLD WATER method... They pose no obvious threat, and appear to be safe natural substances familiar to these (formerly normal) cells, and thus of no obvious threat.......until it's too late!

Natural strategies can slowly render cancer helpless, by a variety of means and methods. Cancer becomes weaker, while the immune system becomes stronger, and the whole body becomes healthier. The system is now in a position to take control back, and overthrow cancer!

There are many ways to achieve this. For a start, cancer, (which requires 15 TIMES MORE GLUCOSE than normal cells) can be subject to a much reduced supply of sugar...(by a major change of diet). It can also be made to live in a much more alkaline environment than it ideally needs...etc etc etc.. In short, with the right strategy and protocol, you can potentially outsmart cancer and put it out of business.

And...because you have healed and improved the whole system, instead of just zapping a tumour or two, you are in a much safer position regarding likely cancer in the future. This is at least the theory, which I tend to consider should be at the heart of all cancer treatment....with chemo drugs perhaps being only employed as a last resort.

And Cockroaches Too... 

Cockroaches shock scientists as love for sugar evolves to evade dying through sugar traps!! Proof that living things quickly mutate and adapt to survive mans poisons.

If you are in doubt about natures built-in survival mechanisms...

BBC News Report and Video:

 Cockroaches' sense of taste evolves away from sugar traps.

"A mutant strain of cockroach that can outsmart the sugar traps used to kill them has evolved, scientists in the US have found.

The US team of researchers say the insects have "reorganised" their sense of taste so they perceived the glucose used to coat poisoned bait as bitter rather than sweet."

In other words, a strain of "mutant" cockroaches have EVOLVED in just a few decades, that now detest their favourite type of foods like sugar..and jam etc, .and now prefer other things like peanut butter. This is what organisms do to survive.These cockroaches were being slaughtered by "sugar traps". The response?  Their genes had to change the taste buds and adapt, or the slaughter would inevitably continue. If they now taste sugar, they instantly spit it out! And their offspring will continue to do the same.

 Nature is extremely smart!!

A scientist goes on to say that this is akin to what we see with resistance to other things like rat poisons and various medications etc.

Outsmart Your Cancer: Alternative Non-Toxic Treatments That Work by Tanya Harter Pierce. ( AUTHOR )

Instead of CANCER outsmarting the (chemo) treatment... 

NATURAL TREATMENTS work by outsmarting cancer!!

Outsmart Your Cancer, by Tanya Harter Pierce

 If you have followed the above reasoning so far, you may understand that cancer can become a formidable opponent when attacked with toxic drugs. But that is the exact opposite of the natural approach, which can be a much more effective tactic in most cases. Tanya Harter Pierce explains below how effective alternative treatments can be.

Outsmart Your Cancer was the first book I read when I was diagnosed with cancer, and facing 6 months of chemo. There are a good number of alternative treatments explained, so as to provide a considerable choice. It is essential to at least have an understanding of what's out there and available to try. Many of these treatments have been devised by highly qualified people with medical or scientific backgrounds who have an approach that exploits the few weak spots unique to cancer cells.

See the bottom video for a good overview.

Cancer, and Why Clean Kitchens Don't Have Cockroaches

Why Clean Kitchens Don't Have Cockroaches

Concept: In nature, each biological entity, - from bacteria to dinosaurs - will have its own type of "ideal environment" in which it can thrive. Change that environment substantially, and it may not thrive. Millions of creatures have gone extinct because of this core principal. It is a fundamental truth of nature. I suggest cancer cells are no exception. (Proof supplied below)

Image AOL


Example of a bad idea! Planning officers reveal tiny homes with toilet in the kitchen AOL Story:
 

By way of analogy, I would refer to cockroaches, which are famously to be found in some of the worlds most awful restaurant kitchens, - (ask Gordon Ramsay!)

The point being IDEAL ENVIRONMENT. Filth, dirt, grime, mess, rotting food, and a thousand grubby hiding places...all present the perfect environment for cockroaches to thrive and breed!

But do you ever see cockroaches thriving in a spotlessly clean well kept kitchen?

 

 

 

THE WORD "IMPOSSIBLE" SPRINGS TO MIND!!

Essential Logic: All lifeforms or organisms tend to have:

A/ Environments ideally suited to thrive

B/  Environments where they cannot thrive

CHOOSE 'B' TO ELIMINATE CANCER

In fact all lifeforms on Earth have what could be described as a specific “ideal environment” in which they will best thrive. Radically change that environment, and suddenly viability is endangered, or even impossible. This is proven by millions of species known to have gone extinct.

As cancer is clearly a life form, (biological entity) with unique specific needs to survive, it must be true that it too has an ideal environment in which to prosper.

But it must also be true that if we radically change that environment, it will radically change viability.

This is essentially what most alternative cancer treatments aim to achieve as a big part of the strategy to eliminate cancer. It is to eliminate the viable environment.

IN SHORT, CANCER OFTEN STARTS BECAUSE FOR ONE REASON OR ANOTHER, THE BODY HAS DEVELOPED A "CANCER FRIENDLY" ENVIRONMENT, WHICH IS ALMOST ALWAYS ACIDIC, (DUE TO MODERN DIET) HAS TOXIC CHALLENGES, (DUE TO THE WORLD WE LIVE IN) - AND IS POORLY OXYGENATED AS A RESULT, AND IS TIPPED OVER THE EDGE WHEN THE IMMUNE SYSTEM GETS CLOBBERED...BY STRESS OR OTHER EMOTIONAL FACTORS...OR SOME OTHER CAUSE. 

An ideal cancer environment?

Science confirms that cancer cells no longer consume oxygen, they instead survive on glucose for energy, - but require 17 times more of it than normal cells! Cancer cells thrive in an acidic cell environment, while normal cells function ideally in an alkaline environment. Obviously it is also IDEAL for cancer to have a weak immune system policing that environment.

 

Hint: Most of these things are, to a large degree, within our control through diet, lifestyle, and exercise. We can also AVOID behaviours that are helpful to cancer, such as flooding your bloodstream with glucose every day! (which is known to render your immune system dormant for several hours)

The Standard American Diet, (SAD) which is fast becoming the diet most of the world is consuming, is creating ideal conditions for creating and supporting cancer. Studies tend to prove this.

Note: In regard to the above cockroach infestation example, if we were to ignore the IDEAL ENVIRONMENT described, and follow the KILL policy (as preferred by standard cancer treatment for cancer) we would find a similar result. Bang!! we could blast them with a shotgun, we could poison them, we could zap them, We could gas them. But in all probability they would soon be back again, if the kitchen remains the same filthy ideal habitat for cockroaches!!

EXAMPLE: There are numerous way to deny cancer cells the ideal conditions needed to thrive. One way is to deny them the glucose they rely on to survive, as explained in this video.

Cancer Is Not Exactly What You've Been Told!

The Truth About Cancer:

Cancer is the body's response to dangerously toxic build up, which is the final event in the life of a cell, which is struggling to stay alive and repair...which is then forced to mutate, and switch to a primative default mode, which now thrives without oxygen, and instead uses fermentation to survive.

Modern diet and lifestyle is building an inner environment ideal for building cancer...and other diseases, and dreadfully deficient in ability to maintain health.
