News from John Hopkins 
 
 
AFTER YEARS OF TELLING PEOPLE CHEMOTHERAPY IS THE ONLY WAY TO TRY (TRY 
BEING THE KEY WORD) AND ELIMINATE CANCER, JOHN HOPKINS IS FINALLY 
STARTING TO TELL YOU THERE IS AN ALTERNATIVE WAY. 
 
 
Cancer Update from John Hopkins: 
 
1. Every person has cancer cells in the body. These cancer cells do not 
show up in the standard tests until they have m ultiplied 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 tumours. 
 
 
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, 
gastro-intestinal 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 
tumour size. However prolonged use of chemotherapy and radiation do not 
result in more tumour 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 the foods it needs to multiply. 
 
 
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. 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 color. Better alternative is 
Bragg's amino or sea salt. 
 
b. 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. 
 
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 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). 
 
e. 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. 
 
 
12. 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. 
 
 
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 to destroy the cancer 
cells. 
 
 
14. Some supplements build up the immune system (IP6, Flor ssence, 
Essiac, 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, 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. 
 
 
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.

1. No plastic containers in microwave. 
2. No water bottles in freezer. 
3. No plastic wrap in microwave. 
 
Johns Hopkins has already sent this out in its newsletters. This 
information is being circulated at Walter Reed Army Medical Center as 
well. Dioxin chemicals causes cancer, especially breast cancer. Dioxins 
are highly poisonous to the cells of our bodies. Don't freeze your 
plastic bottles with water in them as this releases dioxins from the 
plastic. 
Recently, Dr. Edward Fujimoto, Wellness Program Manager at Castle 
Hospital was on a TV program to explain this health hazard. He talked 
about dioxins and how bad they are for us. He said that we should not be 
heating our food in the microwave using plastic containers. This 
especially applies to foods that contain fat. He said that the 
combination of fat, high heat, and plastics releases dioxin into the 
food and ultimately into the cells of the body. 
Instead, he recommends using glass, such as Corning Ware, Pyrex or 
ceramic containers for heating food. 
You get the same results, only without the dioxin. 
So such things as TV dinners, instant ramen and soups, etc., should be 
removed from the container and heated in something else. Paper isn't bad 
but you don't know what is in the paper. It's just safer to use tempered 
glass, Corning Ware, etc. He reminded us that a while ago some of the 
fast food restaurants moved away from the foam containers to paper. The 
dioxin problem is one of the reasons. Also, he pointed out that plastic 
wrap, such as Saran, is just as dangerous when placed over foods to be 
cooked in the microwave. As the food is nuked, the high heat causes 
poisonous toxins to actually melt out of the plastic wrap and drip into 
the food. Cover food with a paper towel instead. |
