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’ »

Skin cancer is deemed any malignant growth that may materialize on the skin. There are three major kinds  of skin cancers which include melanoma, basal cell cancer and squamos cell cancer. Because the tumours will typically develop on the epidermis or the outermost layer of the skin, finding the cancerous growth is relatively easy. Skin cancer is very common and is the most apparent cancer in human populations. However it has a noticeably lower incidence of death because of the probability that it will be identified in the early phases of the disease.
