Cancer and Diet |
|
by:Marilyn Bennett |
The issue of is paramount to your health.
Without feeding the body the ingredients it needs, it simply cannot
produce the processes that combat the cancer.
Firstly, when looking at nutrition for cancer, we need to understand
the role of pancreatic enzymes. These enzymes, including trypsin
& chymotrypsin, play a major role in halting the formation of
tumours. Unfortunately these enzymes also play a part in digesting
animal proteins, so if our diets are too high in animal protein, then
our supply of pancreatic enzymes is tied up in digestion and not
available for halting tumours.
Secondly, we need to understand the role of B17 (hydrocyanic acid) in
our diets and specifically its interaction with cancer. B17 interacts
with the very large amounts of beta-glucosidase in cancer cells to
produce hydrogen cyanide and benzaldehyde. These two poisons combine
into an extremely deadly poison that targets cancer cells. The reason
that it doesn't target healthy cells is that although they have small
quantities of beta-glucosidase, they also contain rodonase, a substance
that cancer cells do not have, that breaks the poison down into
compounds that actually assist the bodies immune system! Clever, hey!?
So we start to see the crucial relationship between cancer and diet!
At this point it is interesting to note that one of the most
concentrated sources of natural B17 is apricot kernels - that is the
kernel INSIDE the apricot seed itself. However it is our understanding
that the sale of apricot kernels is illegal in some countries,
including ours. Consequently if you are lucky enough to get your hands
on a large supply, it will be by word of mouth connections. However if
you are prepared to ask friends to eat a lot of apricots or go on a
mission to make frozen or bottled apricots, or maybe apricot jam, there
is no law to our knowledge that says you can't eat them. The
recommended dosage for people with cancer is up to 60 a day, but
starting with 2 per meal and adding one per meal daily to ensure there
is no intolerance.
Side note: Apparently the bureaucratic argument for making sale of them
illegal is that they will poison you as they are a cyanide compound,
(hydrocyanic acid) and produce another cyanide, (hydrogen cyanide) but
they fail to follow through and tell us that the hydrogen cyanide then
combines with the rodonase to make compounds that actually boost the
immune system. Following this logic I have to wonder why then that
Vitamin B12 (cyanocobalamin!) has not been banned. You may be aware
they feed B12 to anemia patients!
So, we can address a diet for cancer from specific angles. Firstly by
adding whatever natural sources we can find that contain B17, secondly
by reducing (not cutting out!) animal protein intake, and thirdly by
adding nutrients to our diets in their most easily &
effectively absorbed forms ie in foods.
The bottom line is our body is at our mercy and what we put in to it
can either help or hinder its ability to help us. The beauty of
becoming aware of the interaction of cancer and diet is that it is
something we can do for ourselves, thereby empowering us in the fight
against this horrid invader!
