Life threatening illnesses are becoming more and more prevalent. Heart disease is the number 1 killer in the United States with cancer a close second. 1 in 3 women will get breast cancer. This has led many people to wonder, “What is the cause of these life threatening diseases? Can I prevent them? And can I cure them naturally?”
In many cases, the answer is yes. And even when taking the traditional route, such as chemotherapy, positive diet changes, like a mostly raw-food, vegan diet provides concentrated nutrition which significantly enhances the immune system’s ability to reduce the negative side effects of these toxic treatments.
Life threatening diseases are serious, and for that reason we have to take our diet very seriously if it is to assist in healing. It is critical to increase the nutritional intake to assist the body in its efforts to fight disease. This involves eating as many raw vegetables as possible and avoiding all animal products completely. Animal products only feed the cells of cancer so they are to be avoided. The goal is to starve the cancer by giving it exactly what it doesn’t want...which is copious amounts of raw, alkaline, oxygen rich, healing foods.
Eating raw vegetable juice is one of the most powerful things you can consume. It delivers a concentrated dose of nutrients right to your body, and when drank on an empty stomach it is absorbed and used immediately.
But while the good foods are good, the bad foods are worse. Trying to eat healthfully while simultaneously eating toxic foods will not heal as effectively (and likely won’t heal at all). It’s like filling up your car with the highest grade of gasoline and also pouring in one cupful of sand each day. It won’t be long before the whole thing breaks down. The good food can’t overcome the damage that the bad food is doing and also be able to heal. The body needs to be able to focus entirely on healing, not eliminating toxins each day from new bad food being ingested at each meal.
The most important things to cut out of the diet immediately are nearly all sugars and fats. Even healthy sugars feed cancer cells. Cancer cells absorb many more times as much sugar as normal cells which allows the cancer to grow. First thing is first. Stop eating white sugar, corn syrup, and other processed sugars. These are the #1 disease causing foods.
Did you know for doctors to identify and locate cancer they make the patient fast (eat nothing) and when you show up they inject sugar into you and the cancer runs to it? Cancer loves sugar. Did you also know...That our body only needs 1-3 tsp of natural sugar daily (you can easily get from eating natural foods). There is enough sugar in 3 cans of soda to wipe out your immune system for an entire day.
Someone fighting disease would want to eliminate all forms of concentrated sugars including refined sugars, dried fruits, fruit juices, honey, maple syrup, and sugar substitutes (except whole food (green) stevia). Small amounts of low-sugar fruit would be okay. But, for example, vegetable juices should consist of 2/3 carrot juice and 1/3 greens to balance the sugar from the carrots.
Cancer also feeds on fats (and oils) even those considered healthy, like avocados and olive oil. Therefore, no fats from nuts, seeds, avocados, or oils of any kind are recommended. Except flax seeds and flax seed oil (unless you have prostate issues in which case Pharmax Finest Pure fish oil is a good alternative).
Also, get plenty of sleep--before midnight. The sleep you get before midnight is worth twice what you get after. Have you ever gotten 8 hours of sleep from 2am-10am? Notice how different it feels to get sleep from 9pm-5am. Both are 8 hours but the sleep that occurred during the night makes you feel so much more refreshed. But more importantly -- GET sleep. Most people are functioning on 5-6 hours and drinking coffee to make up the difference. The body can't repair and heal under those conditions.
And also simple but overlooked are: stress, anger, worry, hatred, un-forgiveness. Studies after studies have shown the physical effects our thoughts have upon our body. So my advice is cultivate an attitude of gratitude. Find ways to be thankful in everything. Choose to be positive about every circumstance. Let go of fear and worry. And forgive. Don't hold grudges. Just let it go. Love and be happy. And laugh....a lot :)
And remember, that disease didn’t happen over night. It was created over the course of years and years. So give it time. Many times healing is quick, but it may take as long as 12 to 18 months of following an aggressive nutrition plan to provide the body with the best opportunity for rebuilding when facing illness and disease.
