In the fight against asbestos mesothelioma cancer, cutting sugar out of your diet is critical in aiding your immune system. When you eat sugar, a chain of events occurs starting with your insulin level increasing dramatically. With the increased insulin levels, growth hormone levels are also reduced which then suppresses your immune system.

When your insulin level increases, any excess sugar is stored as fat cells. And of course, more fat cells in your body means that you put greater pressure on your heart to pump more oxygenated blood to the fat cells, which leaves less oxygen to combat the asbestos mesothelioma cancer cells.

According to one study, eating just 1/2 a cup of sugar or two cans of pop, can suppress 91% of your immune system for up to 6 hours. Continue reading ‘Asbestos Mesothelioma And Sugar – That Chocolate Bar Is Suppressing Your Immune System’ »

Lymphoma is a type of cancer that affects the immune system, particularly the lymphatic system. The lymphatic system is part of the immune system of the body designed to filter and clean the blood from any pathogens. The fluid that goes through this system is called the lymph, and it contains lymphocytes (or WBC). This lymph now goes through a channel of lymph vessels and lymph nodes which acts as a filter and collects these microbes. It is in the lymph nodes that lymphocytes act against the microbes and destroy them. Specific types of lymphocytes are then activated for this purpose. The B lymphocytes produce anti-bodies and also alert the rest of the immune system to act upon the intruder. The T-cells kill these microbes directly by engulfing them, and also regulate the immune system on just how strong or how weak it should act upon a microbe, and when to stop. Once the microbes are destroyed, these specific lymphocytes record the type of microbes that they have destroyed and will react swiftly and quickly the next time that type of microbe or pathogen invades the body.

The word “cancer” is probably the scariest word in the English language. The word itself brings on a sensation of helplessness or powerless to do something about it. But for someone newly diagnosed with cancer they can do something about it and that is with a little knowledge. To successfully survive cancer you need to identify its causes and remove them and allow the body to heal which it will do. It works for everyone and for all cancers no matter where they are.

What people don’t realize is that the human body is a powerful self healing living item and strives to heal itself automatically every single day. We have a built in repair system that you can’t even turn off if you wanted to. All you have to do to assist this system is to removing the barriers that have been stopping it from healing.

The system I’m talking about is your body’s immune system which has cared for you right through life and will continue to do so if you look after it. The trouble is that with cancer we are subjected to so much influence and misinformation by drug company advertisements and our mainstream medical system that we mistakenly believe the only way to treat the disease is to use toxic treatments.

As long as the island people in the South Pacific stayed with their island food, they were healthy. Today the food is killing them.

Ignorance pays the price.

Until recently many people in the South Pacific didn’t care about what they were eating and a huge amount of unhealthy products were imported to satisfy peoples craving for the new and exciting western food products.

Western food was considered to better than the island food and everyone rather bought canned fish than the fresh fish from the ocean.

The price for unhealthy eating of processed western food now has to be paid. The people in Samoa have the highest rate of diabetes in the world and the hospital is full of people waiting to cut off their toes, feet and legs. Continue reading ‘Coconut Oil Builds Athletes in the South Pacific’ »

We spend billions of dollars in treating cancer today yet we spend little promoting the consumption of freshly grown fruit and vegetables, foods that our medical system should know are beneficial in not only preventing cancer but reversing it as well. Anyone who’s researched and embraced natural medicine knows clearly that nature is by far the best choice when it comes to preventing and treating cancer.

Treating the cancer symptoms, which is the cancer growth do not actually do anything to help a patient regain the level of health necessary to keep the cancer in check. We are subjected to so much influence and misinformation by drug company advertisements and our doctors, that we mistakenly believe the only way to treat cancer is with our current ways of surgery, radiation and chemotherapy.

Every human being has a repair system called the immune system. It is our built in system that keeps us health and free of diseases and also free of cancer. The reason we get cancer is because this immune system had been weakened by our modern way of living, especially with our wrong food choices so doesn’t it make sense that the first priority is to strengthen it. The immune system is easily strengthened by changing to our natural food, many of which have cancer fighting properties.

Causes of diarrhea: Stress believe it or not is often a diarrhea cause. Most of us have hectic lifestyles and we don’t have the time to eat right, to drink enough water, sleep enough, etc. Little by little the immune system runs down and affects the digestive system. Digestive system out of balance can be give us a signal that’s something is wrong, and that signal in this case is constant diarrhea or even bloody diarrhea. Take it as a hint.

Causes of diarrhea: Food Intolerance This is something you can take control over. First thing you need to know is that food intolerance can develop later in life. You’re not always born with food allergy or food intolerance. Consider keeping a journal of what food you eat and how you feel about that food later. This really works. Invest your time into your health.

Causes of diarrhea: Food Poisoning is one of the major causes of diarrhea. Food poisoning is the only one diarrhea cause where we as patients have less of our control over our health. Just use your common sense here. When cooking meat, especially chicken (raw chicken contains more naturally occurring bacteria than other meats) give it enough time to cook to kill off that Salmonella and E.Coli. Also, be careful in the new restaurants and order something safe like cooked fish or cooked veggies. If you are on a raw diet (and I applaud to you) try to prepare your own food to go. There are more and more options now. If you enjoy sushi, eat only in busy sushi restaurants. They have more chances of fish being fresh. Continue reading ‘Causes of Diarrhea’ »

Pure acai berry is becoming known as the most beneficial fruit in the world. Pure Acai berry from the Amazon forest is one of the most nutritious and powerful foods according to Dr Nicholas Perricone. This berry has been around for thousands of years and not until the 1990’s was it introduced to the western world.

Acai berry was first used by the tribes of the Amazon jungle as a cure for various ailments. It comes from a palm that has a long thin trunk up to 25m high with a group of branches with 3 meter long leaves at the top and the berries hang from these branches in clusters, each of them producing 700 to 900 fruits. Each palm tree produces about 20 kg of fruit per year and the wine produced by this fruit has become one of the most important products in terms of finance.

Build Immune System Up

The body’s immune systems defence and strength relies mainly on the foods we eat and don’t eat. The relationship between food and health is critical. We are in effect what we eat.

We need a steady intake of essential vitamins which are ever present in a diet high in fruit and vegetables. One of the best nutrients to support and build the immune system is the precursor to Vitamin A:

Beta-Carotene

The nutrient which is found in highly pigmented fruit and vegetables in colors of orange, red, and yellow. It is not a vitamin but it is converted by the body into vitamin A. Residuals not used by the body is converted to an antioxidant, to build the immune system by controlling the destructive free radicals, which can lead to disease.

Magnetic therapy (MT) can be used alone or along with specific medication for the effective treatment of many of the common diseases people have to face. This way of treatment which heavily relies on the power of magnets and their effect on the human body can be successfully used for almost all people, starting with children and ending with old-aged people.

The most treated ailments and conditions using MT are those involving infections and inflammations. MT acts in two basic directions: first, it stimulates blood circulation by attracting the salt ions and makes the circulating system work properly, thus treating the inflammation or the infection more effectively. Secondly, it improves the immune system and makes the body function much more effectively with the bacteria and the viruses. By strengthening the immune system, the recuperation of the human body is faster and the individual is able to get to their normal daily routine in a short amount of time.

Immunizations work by helping your immune system recognize and quickly attack diseases before they can cause problems. Some immunizations are given in a single shot while others require several shots over a period of time.
Childhood immunizations protect against pertussis (whooping cough), polio, measles, mumps, rubella, haemophilus influenza, chickenpox, and hepatitis B. Immunizations also protect against tetanus and diphtheria, although booster shots are needed every 10 years to maintain lifelong protection.
If your children are immunized, these serious illnesses will not be a problem. Schedule your child’s immunizations according to the chart below.
