AFTER YEARS OF TELLING PEOPLE CHEMOTHERAPY IS THE ONLY WAY TO TRY ('TRY', BEING THE KEY WORD) TO ELIMINATE CANCER, JOHNS HOPKINS IS FINALLY STARTING TO TELL YOU THERE IS AN ALTERNATIVE WAY. 
 
Cancer Update from Johns Hopkins : 
 
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 
    nutritional deficiencies. These could be due to genetic, 
    but also to environmental, food and lifestyle factors. 
 
5. To overcome the multiple nutritional deficiencies, changing 
   diet to eat more adequately and healthy, 4-5 times/day 
    and by 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 the foods it needs to multiply.  
 
*CANCER CELLS FEED ON:  
 
a. 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 aminos 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 soy milk cancer 
    cells are being starved. 
 
c. 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).. 
 
d. Avoid coffee, tea, and chocolate, which have high 
    caffeine.   Green tea is a better alternative and has cancer 
    fighting properties. Water  -  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 becomes putrefied 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 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 bodies 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, un-forgiveness 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 micro.  
 
2. No water bottles in freezer.  
 
3. No plastic wrap in microwave..  
 
Johns Hopkins has recently sent this out in its newsletters. This information is being circulated at  Walter  Reed  Army  Medical  Center as well. Dioxin chemicals cause 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.
