Before All Else.... (Natural Cures)...Written by Aaron Taylor August 5, 2014 2014 at 9:40pm 9:40pm Before All Else.... Upon a cancer diagnosis, the natural instinct is to find something external to your body’s own natural chemistry to fight it, maybe a magic plant or exotic herb? After all, your body has let you down, it’s natural defenses have been compromised. But what if i f your body’s immunity has fallen because it’s lacking crucial necessities... after all we wouldn’t expect a plane to fly without wings. The truth is your body is a miraculous healing entity, it will always look for its own homeostasis of well being, but it needs the fundamental building blocks that establish optimal health before it can do that. It’s tempting to jump straight into a whole catalogue of touted cancer cures, and continue a sedentary lifestyle and a poor diet, but the truth is, if your body hasn’t got the basics covered, then you might as well forget about healing now, because to rely on a magic cure without effort and change, is rolling the dice with the odds heavily stacked against you. Cannabinoid therapy amongst others is a marvelous anti cancer weapon, but its power is so much greater if your biology is nourished alongside it. There is no substitute for a healthy diet, and there is no substitute for exercise. I’m not going to go in to detail within the role each of these listed elements play in your road to optimal health because this write up would be far too long. Instead use it as a reference and research the finer details yourself. The Absolute Essentials •Diet
You should always remember that it is more important what you are not putting in your body than what you are. There is no sense in fighting the beast with one hand, if you are feeding it with the other. Ketogenic, alkalising, juicing diets etc are all with excellent merit that you should explore, and always eat organic when possible. The general rule is this, if it wasn’t around a 100 years ago, you don’t want it in your body. •Vitamin D You need to know what your vitamin D blood serum level is, because it is pointless to tell somebody to take a certain amount of vitamin D a day and expect them to land within the optimal range by chance. Everybody absorbs vitamin D at different rates. The blood test you need is called 25(OH)D. You want to be at around 80--100 ng/ml when fighting cancer. •Transdermal and Ionic Magnesium Magnesium plays many important and vital roles, but one of its most vital attributes within the fight against cancer is that it buffers the lactic acid produced by the cancer cells. Transdermal is always the king, but ionic magnesium has unparalleled bio availability compared to regular magnesium supplementation. •Cachexia Cachexia occurs when cancer cells produce lactic acid, the liver then metabolises some of this lactic acid into glucose, of which the cancer then metabolises again or energy. It’s basically basical ly re-feeding itself. We generally recognize cachexia when somebody is rapidly losing weight and has no appetite; this is when starvation is occurring. It is a myth that cachexia only happens towards the end of stage 4 cases, because cachexia is occurring in all cancer cases and at all stages. Aside from the aforementioned importance of magnesium, the use of Hydrazine Sulfate has also shown great promise in helping to break the cachexia cycle.
•The Gut 80% of your immune system lies within your gut. That startling statistic in itself should be enough to motivate you to learn the basics of fermenting your own foods. It’s super easy, and super cheap, and incredibly good for you.Kefir and Kombucha are great, but the king of fermented goodness is sauerkraut. Before you consider taking the easier and much more expensive route of store bought probiotics, consider this; within just 4 ounces of fermented sauerkraut, there is ten trillion living bacteria. Even if you believe the probiotic count on the bottle, 4 ounces of sauerkraut contains more probiotic than 2 whole bottles of the best probiotic supplement out there. You never believe the bottle by the way. There is simply no comparison to the dead or dying and redundant probiotic supplementation you pay through the nose for, compared to the living and abundant source of probiotics you find in fermented foods. •Enzymes Plantazym, Bromelain and Wobenzyme are all fabulous enzymes. Although research suggests that porcine enzymes have a bigger anti cancer effect. Although an enzyme that that is not quite as known as its aforementioned aforementioned counterparts is Nattokinase. Nattokinase has the ability to break down fibrin. Fibrin is responsible for blood clotting and tumor coating. A few more forward thinking hematologists have considered that cancer moves more easily around the body when the blood is too thick. Enzymes, and Nattokinase in particular help keep the blood at a healthier density, which is why it is so beneficial for the heart as well. Please note that Nattokinase is derived from soy, although it is from fermented soybeans, which is why Nattokinase is not found in any other soy product. The Role of Stress •Stress
Stress and stressful events are heavily linked to cancer. Be that through contributing to cancer arising in the first instance, or be it t hrough fueling cancer through the stress hormone cortisol. It seems nonsensical to tell somebody with cancer not to worry, but you must do everything in your power to achieve a positive mindset. Controversial it may be, but the use of psilocybin mushrooms have proven to be of immense benefit to those facing the fear of death, where in a lot of cases the fear of dying is removed completely. I understand the use of mushrooms or Ayachusa will be a complete no-go for many people, but I encourage you to at least explore the possibility, if you feel comfortable with the idea. Hypnosis, yoga, meditation and especially exercise are all powerful anti-stress tools you must explore. Winning the battle in the mind puts you half way to victory already. •Niacin One huge link in how stress causes cancer is through a process all aerobic organisms use to generate energy (The Krebs Cycle) in relation to niacin. When we deplete adrenaline, as what happens through the stress hormone cortisol, the body in turn produces more dopamine, because adrenaline is made by dopamine. The body then creates an amino acid called tryptophan to create serotonin to offset any depressed mood. This means a depletion of tryptophan, which is vital, as it is needed to synthesize niacin. Niacin is critical in the Krebs cycle because it is used in the mitochondria of the cell for respiration, glucose conversion and energy. Without Niacin, The Krebs Cycle metabolic pathway is broken, and this causes the cell to then ferment glucose, this results in cell mutation and the formation of cancer. •The Lymphatic System Unlike the circulatory system, your lymph system doesn’t have a pump. That means you have to be the pump. A sluggish immobile lymph system is a toxic lymph system. The best way to get the lymph system moving is
through rebounding, which is basically a mini trampoline. I cannot emphasize enough the importance of getting your body moving, if this isn’t an option then look into armchair exercises or anything else to get the body working. •Breathing Sounds straightforward, you can even do it without thinking right? But shallow breathing is a not a friend to your body, your body needs big, deep, regular breaths. Practicing deep breathing and even utilizing breathing exercises are a powerful fundamental you need to get on top of. Home oxygen machines can also be of great benefit. •Sweating Hopefully your sweating is covered when you’re exercising, but regardless, it is incredibly important you have a good deep sweat at least three times a week, with daily deep sweats being optimal. My preference is using a far infrared sauna, because then you are reaping additional benefits. Cancer cells are heat sensitive, and far infrared has the ability to penetrate deep into the body to heat you up, as opposed to heating the air up, as traditional saunas do. •Intermittent Fasting Fasting isn’t going to be suitable for all cases, and you’ll have to seek advice and use good judgment to establish if you are candidate. The rewards from intermittent fasting can be miraculous. Switching the body to burning ketones as a fuel (ketosis) cuts off the primary energy source to the cancer (Glucose) Cancer cells have several more insulin receptors than that of a normal cell, so it loves sugar. •Sulforaphane •Su lforaphane Sulforaphane, a sulfur compound found at the highest level in broccoli
sprouts is of such importance I’m going to list it as an essential. Sulforaphane normalizes DNA methylation, and will actually switch on genes that prevent and fight cancer, and turn off genes that help cancer spread. Buy organic broccoli seeds and grow them for around 3 days in mason jars. Like fermented foods, it is incredibly cheap, and incredibly good for you. •Water Water is primarily what we are, it removes wastes and toxins from our bodies, it transports nutrients and oxygen, it protects are organs. For something so important, it makes more than enough sense that we want to be consuming copious amounts, and we want it clean. Bottled spring water in glass bottles is ideal, but to keep costs down in the long term, a reverse osmosis unit at home will serve the purpose perfectly. It is important to add a sprinkle of Himalayan salt to every liter of water you filter through the reverse osmosis unit, as it will remove all the bad and all the good. The body will never operate at the optimum level it needs to to beat cancer if it is dehydrated. You should be looking at around 3-4 liters a day, and even more if conducting high intensity workouts. •Beta Glucan There is nothing that will boost the immune system like Beta Glucan, and no cancer diet is complete without consuming it daily. As with probiotics, you could waste your money on expensive Beta Glucan supplements, which generally come in 100mg capsules, but then you could just consume nature’s highest source for pennies. Just 50 grams of plain rolled porridge oats (again only buy organic) will contain a massive 2500mg of Beta Glucan. To avoid any heat stability issues, you are better to soak your oats in almond or coconut milk for around 30 minutes, rather than heat them up. •Liposomal Vitamin C
Orally you will absorb about a gram of vitamin C and anything more will just be discarded by the body. Liposomal vitamin C works in a different way to even IV vitamin C, in that it delivers on an intracellular level, which some would say is even more beneficial than the extracellular IV level. If you are going to dedicate to a vitamin C protocol you should first test your Vitamin C Blood Serum level. Apoptosis will occur at around the 270 mmol/l. In one liposomal vitamin C study, a VIT C blood serum level of 600mmol/l was achieved on 36g of liposomal vitamin C. •The Fungus Connection Cancer and fungus are incredibly similar; and furthermore they coexist. To fight cancer is to fight fungus. Common antifungal drugs have been found to lower tumor markets in various cancers. Fungus plays a pivotal role in the cause and proliferation of cancer by migrating to cell walls and releasing mycotoxins, which in turn cause cell DNA damage and thus the mutation of healthy cells in to cancerous ones. Look at the some of the similarities that cancer and fungus share; ---Both produce lactic acid. ---Both nourish without the need of oxygen ---Both are killed with anti-fungal drugs and herbs ---Both need sugar to thrive It would be wise to be mindful of the fungus link, and include anti fungal protocols into your regime, such as; Organic Cold Pressed Coconut Oil Raw Organic Apple Cider Vinegar, Sodium Bicarbonate, Oregano Oil •Root •Ro ot Canals There is some strong evidence to suggest that root canals are heavily
linked to cancer. During a root canal, the nerve of the tooth is removed and the tooth is sterilized. However, However, it is impossible to sterilize the periodontal ligament, and this serves as a breeding ground for bacteria, which now without oxygen feeding the dead tooth, will become anaerobes, which produce potent toxins that look to proliferate and spread around the body. •Angiogenesis Angiogenesis is the growth growth of new capillary capillary blood vessels. vessels. Tumors Tumors cannot generally form masses greater than 1-2mm without the need of angiogenesis. With that fact in mind, it only makes sense a cancer protocol should include natural anti-angiogenesis foods, herbs and supplements, such as; Artemisia Annua (Chinese (Chinese Wormwood) Wormwood) White/Green Tea Curcumin Resveratrol Grape Seed Extract •Chronic Inflammation and Gluten Cancer is as much a disease of inflammation as it is a poorly functioning immune system, so anything that contributes to chronic inflammation is not acceptable, and nothing causes chronic inflammation in the body like gluten does. If you are following a sensible cancer diet, then you will have eliminated gluten already. Other known causes of chronic inflammation are wheat, most grains, pasteurized dairy, and refined sugars.
•Supplementation Other supplements that have not been mentioned already that I strongly suggest you explore are the following; Glutathione (Liposoma (Liposomal) l) Resveratrol (Liposom (Liposomal) al) Curcumin (Liposomal) Selenium Lugol’s Iodine Iodine Essiac Tea Frankincense Bitter Apricot Kernels Melatonin Niacin Cayenne Organic Sulfu Essiac Tea is not just for cancer. Many people take it for general health purposes to detoxify their bodies, for healing of various ailments, or to protect themselves from disease. It can also be given to pets safely. Here is a list of reported therapeutic actions: Prevents build-up of excess fatty deposits in artery walls, heart, kidney tubules, and liver Regulates cholesterol levels by transforming sugar and fat to energy Halts diarrhea, checks internal hemorrhaging and overcomes constipation counteracts the effects of aluminum, lead, and mercury poisoning Strengthens and tightens muscles, organs, and tissue
Makes bones, joints, ligaments, lungs and membranes strong and flexible, more durable, and less vulnerab vulnerable le to stress Promotes the absorption of fluids in the tissues Removes toxic accumulation in fat, lymph, bone marrow, bladder and alimentary canal Absorbs toxins toxins in the bowel, bowel, then eliminates eliminates them Clears respiratory channels by dissolving and expelling mucus Relieves the liver of its burden of detoxification by converting fatty toxins into water soluble substances that can then be easily eliminated through the kidneys Assists the liver liver in producing producing lecithin which which forms part part of the myelin myelin sheath surrounding the nerve tissue Reduces, perhaps eliminates heavy metals deposits in the tissues, especially those surrounding the joints, to relieve inflammation and stiffness Improves the functions of the pancreas by increasing the effectiveness of insulin Cleanses the blood Increases red cell production and keeps all these cells from rupturing Increases the body's ability to utilize oxygen by raising the oxygen level in the tissue cells Maintains the balance between potassium and sodium within the body
Renders calcium and potassium oxalate soluble in the urine. Regulate the amount of oxalic acid delivered to the kidneys, thus reducing risk of stone formation in the gall bladder, kidneys, or urinary tract Protects the brain from circulating toxins Relieves pain, increases appetite and provides more energy and a sense of well-being Accelerates Accelerate s wound healing healing Increases the production of lymphocytes and T-cells Inhibits and possibly destroys benign growths and tumors Protects cells from free-radical damage, including damage from radiation and x-rays
What is it? Also known as the "Herxheimer "Herxheimer Reaction", Reaction", this reaction reaction occurs when the body tries to eliminate toxins at a faster rate than they can be properly disposed of. The more toxic one's bodily systems are, the more severe the detoxification,, or healing crisis. It is characteriz detoxification characterized ed by a temporary increase in symptoms during the cleansing or detox process which may be mild or severe. You may feel worse and therefore conclude that the treatment is not working. But these reactions are instead signs that the treatment is working and that your body is going through the process of cleaning itself of impurities, toxins and imbalances. Such reactions are temporary and can occur immediately -- or within several days, or even several weeks, of a detox. Symptoms usually pass within 1-3 days, but on rare occasions can last several weeks. If you are suffering from a major illness, the symptoms you experience during the
healing crisis may be identical to the disease itself. Sometimes discomfort during the healing crisis is of greater intensity than when you were developing the chronic disease. This may explain why there may be a brief flare-up in one's condition. Often the crisis will come after you feel your very best. Most people feel somewhat ill during the first few days of a cleanse because it is at that point that your body dumps toxins into the blood stream for elimination. With a more serious condition there may be many small crises to go through before the final one is possible. In any case, a cleansing & purifying process is underway, and stored wastes are in a freeflowing state. Cause: The healing crisis is the result of every body-system, in concert, working to eliminate waste products through all elimination channels and set the stage for regeneration. The end result: old tissues are replaced with new. When any treatment or cleansing program causes a large scale die-off of bacteria, a significant amount of endotoxins (toxins within the bacteria itself) are released into the body. The more bacteria present, and the stronger their endotoxins, the stronger the cleansing reaction. When any treatment or detox causes the organs of the body (particularly the liver, which is a storehouse of drug and poison residues) to release their stored poisons and toxins, a cleansing reaction may occur. Any program, such as fasting, which causes a rapid breakdown of fat cells (which are a storehouse for toxins), can cause a healing crisis as toxins previously lodged in the fat cells are released into the blood stream. Symptoms: The healing crisis will usually bring about past conditions in whatever order the body is capable of handling at that time. People often forget the diseases or injuries they have had in the past, but are usually reminded during the crisis. There are a wide variety of reactions that may manifest during a healing crisis, the most common are:
Increased joint or muscle pain Diarrhea Extreme fatigue and/or its opposite, restlessness Cramps Headache (believed to be caused by buildup of toxins in the blood) Aches, Pains Pains Arthritic flair flair up Insomnia Nausea Sinus congestion Fever (usually low grade) and/or chills Frequent urination and/or urinary tract discharges Drop in blood pressure Skin eruptions, including: boils, hives, and rashes. Cold or flu-like symptoms Strong emotions: anger, despair, sadness, fear, etc. Suppressed memories arise Anxiety
Mood swings New phobias develop Easing Your Way Through the Healing Crisis: Drink plenty of fresh water (especially water), juices, and herbal teas to flush the body of toxins. Some professionals recommend distilled water as the best. Drink from 2 to 4 quarts(liters) per day. This will help flush the toxins out of your system and speed along the detoxifica detoxification. tion. If you are feeling fatigued, or sleepy, your body is talking to you, and telling you to rest. Be kind to yourself, and get the rest that you need. Symptoms frequently disappear immediately after a good bowel movement, use an enema to provide relief. For other symptoms, meditation, EFT, acupuncture or a good massage might be helpful to speed up the healing process, and reduce the discomfort. And, on rare rare occasions, occasions, a reduction reduction of the dosage dosage or temporary temporary cessation may be required. Important: Always ensure your health by having a thorough medical check up: don't assume that if you have any of the above symptoms that you are in a healing crisis: you may not be in a healing process, you may have a medical health problem.

AN ALTERNATIVE ALTERNATIVE WAY … 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 multiple nutritional deficiencies. These could be due to genetic, environmental, food and lifestyle factors. 5. To overcome the multiple nutritional deficiencies, changing diet and 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 foods it needs to multiple. What cancer cells feed on: a. Sugar is a cancer-feeder. By cutting off sugar it cuts off one important food supply to the cancer cells. Note: Sugar substitutes like NutraSweet, Equal, Spoonful, etc are made with Aspartame and it is harmful. A better natural substitute would be Stevia Stevia Table salt has a chemical added to make it white in colour. Better alternative is Pink Himalayan sea salt. b. Milk causes the body to produce mucus, especially in the gastrointestinal tract. Cancer feeds on mucus. By cutting off milk and substituting with unsweetened soy milk, cancer cells will 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 chicken rather than beef or pork. 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 t o 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. properties. Water –best – 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 will become putrified 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 c ells to destroy the cancer cells. 14. Some supplements build up the immune system (IP6, Flor-ssence, Essiac, anti-oxidants, anti-oxidants, vitamins, minerals, EFAs etc.) to enable the body’s 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, unforgiving unforgiving and bitterness put put the body into a stressful stressful and acidic 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. (PLEASE SHARE IT TO PEOPLE YOU CARE ABO UT)
