| Important Information on diseases of our time: CANCER |
*Every person has cancer cells in their 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.
*Cancer cells occur between 6 to more than 10 times in a person's lifetime.
*When the person's immune system is strong the cancer cells will be
destroyed and prevented from multiplying and forming tumors.
*When a person has cancer it indicates the person has multiple
*Nutritional deficiencies. These could be due to genetic,
environmental, food and lifestyle factors.
*To overcome the multiple nutritional deficiencies, changing diet and
including supplements will strengthen the immune system.
*Chemotherapy involves poisoning the rapidly-growing cancer cells and
also destroys rapidly-growing healthy cells in the bone marrow,
gastro-intestinal tract etc, and can cause organ damage, like liver,
kidneys, heart, lungs etc.
*Radiation while destroying cancer cells also burns, scars and damages
healthy cells, tissues and organs.
*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.
*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.
*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.
*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 -
Sugar is a cancer-feeder. By cutting off sugar it cuts off one
important food supply to the cancer cells. 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 colour.
Better alternative is Bragg's aminos or sea salt.
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 Soya milk cancer cells are being
starved.
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.
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).
Avoid coffee, tea, and chocolate, which have high caffeine. Green tea
is a better alternative and has cancer-fighting properties. Water: it
is best to drink purified water, or filtered, to avoid known toxins
and heavy metals in tap water. Distilled water is acidic, avoid it.
Meat protein is difficult to digest and requires a lot of digestive
enzymes. Undigested meat remaining in the intestines become putrefied
and leads to more toxic build-up.
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.
Some supplements build up the immune system (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.
Cancer is a disease of the mind, body, and spirit. A proactive and
positive spirit will help the cancer warrior be a survivor. Anger,
unforgiveness 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.
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.

| New assessment model gauges lung cancer risk |
Clinicians may be one step closer to having a critical tool in identifying which smokers are at higher risk for developing lung cancer, the deadliest of all cancers, thanks to an assessment model generated by researchers at The University of Texas M. D. Anderson Cancer Center.

CNS-MEDIAWATCH: Smoking in movies influence youth to smoke
Keep-The-Promise Campaign
------------------------------
In the recent past, English and Hindi newspapers have been carrying editorial indepth articles on portrayal of tobacco use in cinema/ films, in India and globally as well. One of the major influences on the uptake of teen tobacco use is the glamourisation of tobacco use in movies and on television. It has been well documented in India and internationally too, that portrayal of tobacco use in films influences youth to begin tobacco use. Keep-The-Promise Campaign team has put together a bulletin of such media clippings below (see the list):
===============================================================
KEEP THE PROMISE DR RAMADOSS!!!
Below is the statement of Dr Ramadoss (dated 12 July 2006). Close to a year later, we are yet to see any change in effect!
"Curbing exposure to children and adolescents to tobacco in films/TV is the single most effective public health intervention for any society in the world" said Dr Ambumani Ramadoss, Union Health and Family Welfare Minister, Government of India.
