Most Cancer Self-Inflicted,
But Preventable
Some cancer lifestyle and nutritional facts are already known and can be put into practice right now.Scientists estimate that as many as 83% of all cancers are caused by environmental and life-style related factors. At least 35% are diet related and, in men, this may be as high as 50%.
Tobacco use is directly related to at least 30% of all cancers, particularly lung cancer. When poor diet is included with tobacco use, the incidence of cancer is much higher.
Exercise is another lifestyle factor that plays a synergistic approach. If you exercise, you have more stamina and you feel better about yourself. You are also reducing your risk for all types of cancer.
Cancer is not some stalker that randomly attacks those with bad luck. Only 17% of cancer occurrences result from unfavorable genes and other factors beyond your control.
In most cases, cancer is caused by nutritional and lifestyle factors. So, don't fear cancer. Fight daily to avoid it.
War On Cancer Lost--
Like Vietnam WarIn 1971, President Nixon declared war on cancer, claiming we would have a cure in five years. Yet nearly 30 years later, with over $35 billion spent on research, $1 trillion spent on therapy, and 7 million causalities, we are no closer to finding a cure with traditional therapies than we were three decades ago.
In fact, on December 26, 1990, United Press International news wire reported that cancer had overtaken heart disease as the leading cause of death in the United States of people between the ages of 35 - 64, the age when most of us expect to be the most productive.
Recent cancer statistics indicate that one out of every four deaths in the U.S. is due to cancer. Cancer now accounts for 500,000 deaths per year. One out of every three Americans will develop and have to deal with cancer some time in their life. Two out of every three American families will have a member with cancer. Cancer now is the major cause of death in children between the ages of three to 17, our next generation.
By the year 2005, it estimated that cancer will be the leading cause of death among all Americans. Over $100 billion dollars is now spent annually on the detection and treatment of cancer. Where has all that money gotten us?
Although the most recent statistics shows a slight decrease in the death rate from cancer, most of this is due to people getting educated and changing their nutrition habits, not from therapeutic advances in traditional treatments.
Many both outside and within the cancer establishment are admitting that the war on cancer has turned into a “medical Vietnam” with very little progress to show for all the money spent.
Slash, Burn and Poison Don't Work
Trying to cure cancer with surgery, radiation and chemotherapy does not work.
The single digit survival rates (alive five years after diagnosis) have not changed for most cancers, particularly internal organ cancers, since President Nixon declared war on cancer.
How many vital, vigorous and dynamic lung and liver cancer survivors do we know who were "cured" with surgery, radiation and chemotherapy five or ten years ago?
The treatments first killed off their immune systems, and then the cancer grew out of control, with a destroyed immune system incapable of fighting back.
Since the traditional cancer establishment is a multi-billion business made up of oncologists, radiologists, hospitals, drug companies, and funeral homes--similar to the heart bypass and angioplasty business--do not expect the cancer establishment to admit failure and disband. Multi-billion dollar businesses do not go out of business overnight.
Expect instead the cancer establishment to march on boldly and arrogantly, claiming that only their discredited offerings of radiation, surgery and chemotherapy can help you and that all other forms of treatment are ineffective.
What Should I Do?
Since only 17% of cancers result from unfavorable genes and factors beyond your control, you need to adjust your lifestyle (including diet, exercise and smoking cessation) to avoid getting cancer.
However, if you have cancer now, we have nutritional cancer therapies available to help you fight this disease. These are discussed below.
Nutritional Cancer Therapies
NeoGENESIS offers intravenous supernutritional treatments at its clinic. By administering nutrients intravenously, we are able to provide the cancer patient with high doses that he/she could not tolerate by oral ingestion. And, using intravenous administration, all nutrients get absorbed in the blood stream, not always the case with digestion.
We strongly suggest colonic hydrotherapy for cancer patients, as vigorous internal cleaning is every bit as important in fighting cancer as powerful nutrition.
A third nutritional cancer therapy used by NeoGENESIS physicians is reordering one's diet toward plant-based foods, away from animal-based sources. Since sugar is the favorite food of cancer cells, we teach patients to avoid it completely.
Prevent Cancer With Certain Foods
Antioxidants are molecules that protect cells from free radical damage, whether it comes from metabolism to produce energy on the inside, or from the interactions with the environment.
Examples of foods rich in antioxidants are: apricots, cantaloupe containing the orange pigments beta-carotene.
These orange pigments are also called carotenoids, and they are found in carrots and sweet potatoes and many dark green leafy vegetables where the green of chlorophyll masks the carotene color.
Apples, blueberries, strawberries, oranges, grapefruits and lemons are excellent sources of vitamin C and the bioflavonoids ellagic acid, quercetin and rutin.
All of the above plant based nutrients or phytonutrients protect the cells and mucous membranes of our bodies, helping to provide immune protection.
Anticarcinogens are specially targeted phytonutrients that are not only antioxidants but also actively involved in balancing enzyme activity inside cells. These include phytoestrogens genistein and daidzein, the Bowman-Birk and other protease inhibitors found in soy and other members of the legume family (beans, peas, etc.).
Cruciferous vegetables (broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, Brussels sprouts, etc.) contain anticarcinogens called isothiocyanates and are valuable additions to the anticancer arsenal.
Use Lots Of Dietary Fiber
Dietary fiber is the non-nutritive part of our diet protects from cancer in a variety of ways.
First, fiber provides a healthy colon by stimulating muscle activity with its bulk, encouraging "friendly" bacteria such as acidophilus and bifidus to grow and minimizing yeast overgrowth.
Second, dietary fiber provides bulk that speeds the transit through the colon and reduces any tendency to constipation.
Third, this bulk dilutes any potentially harmful dietary components and reduces the time they might interact with the walls of the intestine. This is one reason why a high fiber diet is associated with a lower incidence of colo-rectal cancers.
Finally, when you eat dietary fiber, you are eating fruits, vegetables, grains, beans and other foods from the plant kingdom. You are therefore eating less of the foods from the animal kingdom that don't have any fiber in them.
This shift of emphasis also affects the balance of steroid hormones in your body starting with the precursor molecule cholesterol and including the sex hormones estrogen and testosterone.
Other Helpful Things
Omega fatty acids include the essential nutrient alpha-linolenic acid and the fatty acids docosohexanoic acid (DHA) and eicosopentanoic acid (EPA). The latter two are found in oily fish like salmon, herrings or sardines. Most fruits and vegetables contain small quantities of the omega-3 fatty acids, including Brussels sprouts, mushrooms and the nuts English walnuts and macadamias.
These fatty acids balance the more common omega-6 fatty acids found in corn and soy oils as well as the fats of meat and dairy products. Eating more omega-3's and fewer omega-6's favors anti-inflammatory actions in the body and is supportive to your immune system in general.
Future research may support these fats as being particularly useful for breast and prostate cancer prevention.
Garlic has been recognized as an anticancer agent and protector since the time of Hippocrates. It has antiseptic properties and is a good source of selenium.
Green tea and red wine contain antioxidant flavonoids that are also protective.
Spices are rich sources of anticarcinogens, including coriander, cumin, turmeric and ginger.
Seaweeds and kelp also contain anticarcinogens and beneficial dietary fiber in the form of mucigens.
EAT AT LEAST 5 SERVINGS OF FRUITS AND VEGETABLES EACH DAY. For those at risk because of family history of cancer it is recommended that you consume 8-10 servings daily.
