14 of 2006: Cancer

Monday night, this week I will be speaking on Hormones and diet and covering a variety of health issues from blood pressure and blood sugar, gout, arthritis and almost every disease common to man, which is affected by the hormonal system out of balance. So get to Riverclub in Observatory Cape Town by 19:30hrs or order the DVD from dvd@mary-anns.com

Tuesday evening check out “Special Assignment” on SABC 3 http://www.sabcnews.com/specialassignment/  if you live outside South Africa and do not have satellite. I was interviewed for a program on ‘Additives’ which will be aired on Tuesday evening the 1 August.

This week, Mark and I finally got to film the whole process used to make Biodiesel and interview one of the people committed to this environmentally friendly production of biologically friendly diesel for use in diesel motor vehicles. This will be on the next DVD, which will arrive with a free flax vs fish oil debate.

One of the issues that came up in the Biodiesel interview is that the old oil from most restaurants and fast food outlets in South Africa is sold on to animal feed companies and this highly carcinogenic, depleted oil is used in making dog and cat food, chicken, horse and other livestock feed. I now realize why so many domesticated animals suffer from cancer. This is shocking considering that most other countries ban the use of these oils in any animal feed and it appears that other countries are shipping their used oils to South Africa where it fetches a premium price for animal feed.

This is not only highly irresponsible because of what it does to the animals but if you eat a chicken (or any other animal for that matter) fed these oils you are more likely to develop cancer yourself! The statistics now estimate that 1 in every 3-4 people who follow a Westernized lifestyle will get cancer of some kind. (See info section on diet for cancer to help avoid this)

We need to stop this practice! So start by asking your local restaurants what they do with their old oil (and they had better not be selling it to their staff for consumption either). If they say it is sold to chemical factories say you want proof of who it is sold to, like a certificate. As it appears the oil depots are telling the restaurants they are selling it to chemical and paint factories when in fact it is going to animal feed.

This is also pushing up the price of the used oil which is used very efficiently to make Biodiesel. Making Biodiesel is a far safer thing to do than feeding it to animals. Write to your local member of parliament, your local newspaper, phone radio stations, anything that gets the public aware of this shocking practice. There are over 8000 of you receiving this newsletter and if just each one of you told 10 people about this and each of those told 10 people and they all put pressure on the restaurants things could change. Do something!

Remember that animal certified ‘organic’ are not allowed to be fed animal feed, so stick organic animal products and you will avoid this.

Interesting stuff –Good reports to inspire you & Cancer and Diet

I just had a call from my mom, who said that she had been on the phone to an old friend who has a German Shepherd dog who has been back and forth to the vet with hip dysplasia which is quite common in this breed of dog (we had two German Shepherds, both had to be put down because of this miserable and painful condition).

Anyway, she somehow came across AIM Frame Essentials and decided to give it to her beloved pet.  She reports back that she has witnessed the most incredible improvement in this dog.  Apparently the dog has a new lease on life and is bouncing around as if it were reborn.  Mom's friend was so taken back with the incredible improvement in this animal that she made a specific appointment to go and see the vet to show him what had happened, along with Frame Essentials in hand.  She said the biggest tragedy is that this vet did not believe in anything other than 'conventional stuff' despite the DRAMATIC improvement in her beloved animal, however that aside and my own love for animals, I just had to tell you all about this because after hearing this story Bruno (Craig's beloved police dog) might have had a better quality retirement.    

Kind regards
Ingrid

Thank you very much.pan class="apple-converted-space"> 

I just want to say a big thank you to Mary-Ann. I had a miserable year last year, I had a baby (that was great) but then I lost my job, we moved house, my husband changed jobs and he worked all the time. I ate all the time. It was just me and my child all day, everyday. I saw Mary-Ann on 3 Talk and I bought the natural way. I am trying to stay on track and it is not as hard as I thought it would be. I am no longer depressed and the weight is coming off. Thank you Very much.

Mark & Mary-Ann

Hi Mary-Ann, I’m Lineo a 3rd year student at Wits and I’m also a Christian. From the beginning of February I went on the Natural Way programme, though it was hard initially, God's grace upheld me and now 6 months later I am enjoying it, even the exercise amazingly. I was 84kg in February and I am 63kg now. It’s like a dream, I try on jeans now and my fit is size 34 now. It’s a miracle to me; I used to wear size 42. 

I am so grateful to you for letting God use you as such a great instrument to preserve his temple in wholeness, vitality and health He created it to have. Continue the great work and may God continue to shine His face on you, pour upon blessings you cannot contain and give you more favour with Him and people.

I have been using the Barleylife from AIM you recommended but now all stores  I used to buy it from don’t stock it anymore(Dischem and Health shop), can you please tell me where I can find it or if there is another suitable substitute for it which is just as good but maybe has a different brand name?

Your help, as always, will be highly appreciated.

Regards

Lineo

Hi Lineo

Thank you for your kind words and I know your testimony will help and encourage so many other people.

You can order Barleylife directly from Aim at the wholesale price and they deliver to your nearest post office within 2 working days. Check out the products section on www.mary-anns.com for details on how to do this or contact any of the Natural Health consultants listed on our website.

Cancer

Cancer is a state of cellular growth, which occurs when normal cells become abnormal and continue to grow abnormally without apparent control, and in the process destroying healthy tissue and organs. Cancer kills more people in Western countries (one out of every three to four) than any other disease, other than heart disease. Cancer is a disease of so-called civilised nations, and is practically unknown among primitive people eating natural, unprocessed foods.

Ross Horne in his book, Health Revolution states that cancer “does not occur in properly nourished and vigorously healthy humans.”

&n 

Dr. E H Tipper in The Cradle of the World and Cancer, A Disease of Civilisation (1927), said that where there is no constipation - there is no cancer. He further says, “Cancer has been suspected of being a disease of civilisation ... I am convinced that this is true.” Interestingly enough, today, the most common form of cancer is cancer of the bowel, including colon and rectal cancer. All the latest research indicates that a diet high in fat and protein and low in natural fresh foods, is the main cause of cancer. The most common form of cancer in Westernised countries is cancer of the bowel, including both colon and rectal cancers.

The third national cancer survey done by the USA National Cancer Institute showed that cancer of all types is lower among people who follow a plant-based (vegetarian) diet, and even lower among those that do not consume dairy products.

A study done into Loma Linda University in the USA, involving 100 000 Seventh Day Adventists, showed that they had half the cancer rate of the national average, their blood pressure and cholesterol levels were also considerably lower (Their general diet discourages the consumption of animal fat, stimulants, and processed food).

Constipation

The average transit time for faecal matter in Westernised countries is three days, while in rural communities it is 24 hours – where cancer is virtually unknown.

High Protein Diet

Eating animal protein results in the formation of ammonia, which encourages the formation of cancer (carcinogenic).
Cooked and heated fats are also carcinogenic. When animal products are cooked, fats in the protein foods are heated to very high temperatures.

Processed and Refined Sugars and Starches

Regular intakes of these foods have now been shown to result in a higher level of stomach cancer.

Processed Foods and Additives

Processed meats, such as a polony (processed meat) and bacon, contain nitrites and nitrates, now known to cause cancer. Many other food additives and preservatives such as sodium benzoate found in all margarine are known to be carcinogenic.

Salt

A powerful irritant and strong inhibitor of enzymes, it has now been observed to increase the rate of cancer growth.

Vitamin and Mineral Deficiencies

You do not need to be taking any supplements, even fruit and vegetables grown in so-called ‘depleted’ soils contain enough of these nutrients – you just need to make sure you’re eating enough. Following the five Natural Way steps will ensure this.

Heated Fats

Hormone Replacement Therapy

Exposure to Animal & Environmental hormones

Smoking

Inhaled cigarette smoke contains many powerful carcinogens such as acrolein, carbon monoxide, nicotine, ammonia, hydrogen cyanide, nitrous oxide, formaldehyde, methanol, arsenic, to name a few .

An acid forming diet

A diet that is predominantly acid forming puts tremendous strain on the Immune system. The ideal pH of the body is 7,35 – 7,45, when the pH drops just marginally below this cancer cells are known to multiply rapidly. A typical Western diet is anything from 70-100% acid forming, when it should be no more than 20-25% acid forming to maintain this pH balance to prevent this positive environment for cancer. Just following the Natural Way 5 steps will result in a diet that is no more than 25% acid forming.

&n 

The best way to avoid cancer is by following basic Natural Health 5 Steps and removing all processed foods from the diet. A diet low in fat and protein and high in fruit and vegetables has been proved time and time again, to be the best way to avoid cancer. If a person has cancer, I have found that a 100% raw diet, including nuts and seeds, to be the best programme for recovery. It is a high alkaline forming diet (90 – 100%) and is also high in natural antioxidants such as Vitamin C, Beta Carotene etc the high alkalinity help prevent the cancer cells multiplying and the high anti oxidant levels help the body destroy the cancer cells without harming the healthy cells. I have personally dealt with numerous people over the years who have recovered completely (first remission for 5 years and now classed as cured) from so called incurable forms of cancer such as liver cancer. The focus should be on as much organically grown fruit and vegetables as possible and a glass of freshly extracted vegetable juice containing organic barley juice (the best is Barleylife) if possible (The most alkaline food available and also contains powerful anti-oxidants such as Superoxide dismutase), organic carrot juice and organic beetroot juice. Aim’s Barleylife, Just Carrots and Redibeets would be ideal for this.

Organic Flax oil is also anti carcinogenic and anti tumourgenic and taken daily would be of much benefit. Taking other vitamin and mineral supplements will simply strain the digestive tract and kidneys adding to the existing burden of cancer. In South Africa Millbrook oil is the only pure flax oil I recommend, it is not only organic, but genuinely cold pressed to the point that the machinery is packed in dry ice on hotter days to keep the temperature (created by friction0 down, it is nitrogen flushed to remove all oxygen well pressed and bottled in a non reactive fluoridated bottle(which avoids any xenoestrogens leeching out of the container into the flax oil)

You can also use Millbrook’s span> Superior blend or Aim’s Aimega bend in capsule form.

Fasting

I personally see no sound reason to fast a person who has cancer, as the body is so run down that it cannot cope with the fast. I have seen many people deteriorate rapidly when fasting for cancer.

Mental attitude

The mental attitude of a person with any disease and how it affects the health and recovery rate of that person is well known and described as psycho-neuro- immunology or PNI. How you feel about your disease for example directly affects the function of the thymus gland, which produces the fighter T4 cells, which are so important infighting cancer cells, viruses and bacteria. It is vital that a person not only wants to be well, but believes that they will get well. This needs to be done through education by finding out how your body works and what it is capable of and reading about and speaking to other people who have recovered from cancer and by reviewing the spiritual side of your life. Research now indicates that people who believe in God live longer and are healthier. A place to start that most people are comfortable with is the book of Proverbs, there is one Proverb for every day of the month. There are a variety of so-called cures available world wide, but the common denominator of all the programs that work is that a high raw fruit and vegetable diet is encouraged together with the right mental approach and spiritual balance. (Read our book “Take Control”)

•      Surgery, usually for tumours

•      Radiation therapy

•      DrDrug therapy - Chemotherapy

Sometimes 1 or 2 or all 3 are employed together. All three treatments can have severe side effects. Radiation and Chemotherapy work on the principle of destroying cancer cells, but in the process also destroy good, healthy cells.  Possible side effects are cellular death, unusual cellular forms, cells that are incapable of dividing, nausea, vomiting, hair loss, skin rash, diarrhoea, conjunctivitis, even bleeding cystitis, leucopoenia or reduction in the white blood cell count, anaemia, pulmonary fibrosis, renal failure, chills, fever, hyper pigmentation, anorexia, pharyngitis, etc.

To quote from The Merck Manual a hand book most doctors use;span>

Radiotherapy

“The effects of ionising radiation are random: cellular death, unusual aberrant cellular forms, functional cells incapable of division or functional cells that are unaltered

Chemotherapy

“compounds similar to mustard gas, attach electron rich regions of molecules…This disruption of cellular metabolism leads to cellular death…. Toxicities include nausea, vomiting, alopecia, hemorrhagic cystitis, leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, anemia, pulmonary fibrosis and an increased risk of acute nonlymphatic leukaemia ” also “skin rash, diarrhoea, conjunctivitis and cerebellar ataxia”

Some people choose to do the raw diet and use the allopathic treatments above. I have seen some that recover doing this, but often the cancer returns whereas the success rate on the raw diet appears to be higher.
