Foods To Avoid If You Are Dealing With Cancer

Posted Wednesday, November 18, 2009 (6 days 7 hours ago.) Viewed 3 times.

We are what we eat," that is our state of health is related to the food we eat daily. The reason there is so much cancer today is because our food has changed over the last 40 to 50 years, yet prior to that it hadn't changed for 10,000 years.

All cancers have many causes but it's the food we eat which is the main cause. Today the majority of food in western countries is in supermarkets and most of that food has been processed or interfered with by man. Processed food exists because of one reason and that reason is profit. Also nearly all of that food contains fat, salt or refined sugar, added to help it sell and those 3 items are all known contributors to cancer. Manufactures make many unsubstantiated health claims about their products so one should be wary of any of these claims.

Western populations are big consumers of red meat and while a little meat will never cause us any health problems, eating too much will. It's the main contributor to cancer of the colon. All alternative cancer treatment diets are vegetarian based with only one small exception and that is the Budwig diet which uses a small amount of organic cottage cheese. The problem with meat is it has no fiber and therefore has a much longer transit time through the intestines.

Refined sugar as mentioned above needs to be totally eliminated because of one very important reason. It feeds cancer cells! It's the natural food of cancer cells and that was discovered over 70 years ago. "Dr Otto Warburg," a German biochemist, who stated; "there is only one prime cause for all cancers and that is the replacement of the respiration of oxygen in normal cells by the fermentation of sugar." It's a very sad fact you won't be told this by the person you seek help from for your problem.

Food additives, while these are not all bad there are 2 that need to be avoided and they are sodium nitrate and sodium nitrite. They are in bacon, hot dogs, ham, salami and other processed meats, used to help preserve the color of the meat so it looks pink, rather than grey. The chemicals also inhibit botulisium so this gives it a longer shelf life. Nitrates and nitrites are suspected carcinogens.

Cooking food by smoke is cancer causing as smoke irritates our digestive system and can cause cancer of the stomach and colon. Also pickle foods have been suspected to cause cancer probably because of the high amount of salt used in the process. Research has linked pickle food to a higher risk of stomach cancer.

Acryl amides are formed when starchy food such as chips and crisps are heated to high temperature by frying, roasting or grilling to turn them golden brown. They are also suspected of causing cancer. Meat when cooked in a hot frying pan or on a barbecue produces heterocyclic amines and this has been found to be carcinogenic.

It is well known that alcohol can increase your risk of a number of cancers, including breast and prostate cancer. Even a moderate alcohol intake increases your risk as a recent study has shown.

Lastly, if you are dealing with cancer you need to be careful with your consumption of dairy products. Most of them contain saturated fat and cheese has a high percentage of salt. Remember they are all made from cow's milk that was never intended for human beings.

Foods That Are Known To Stop and Reverse Cancer

Posted Monday, November 09, 2009 (15 days 9 hours ago.) Viewed 6 times.

The most important change you can make to your lifestyle when you have been diagnosed with cancer is with the food you put in your mouth. Cancer has many causes but the main one is the wrong food we eat everyday. "We are what we eat" and the food we eat on a daily bases does matter.

It's only been in the last few years there has been any research into food and how it is related to cancer. What has been discovered are many of our natural foods which are fruit and vegetables contain compounds; collectively called phytochemicals which are in these plants for their protection against predators and diseases and these same phytochemicals also have cancer fighting properties.

A few examples of these phytochemicals are;

  • Flavonoids; found in red cabbage, beetroot, red onion and tomatoes, which inhibits cancer.
  • Glucosinolates; found in carrots, tomatoes, red capsicum and dark green vegetables, which were found to prevent cancer of the intestines.
  • Carotenoids; found in carrots, tomatoes, red capsicum and dark green vegetables; stimulates the immune system.
  • Sulphides; found in onions, garlic, chives as well as spring onions; they have anti cancer protection.
  • Lycopene; found in tomatoes, reduces the risk of both prostate and breast cancer.
  • Sulforaphane; are in broccoli and other cruciferous vegetables believed to aid in the preventing some types of cancer.


These phytochemicals are in freshly grown plant food but are destroyed or removed by modern processing.

Other food items that research has found to be beneficial to a person with cancer are;

  • Red grapes; which contain resveratrol, also found in red wine.
  • Turmeric; a member of the ginger family. Its active ingredients are curcumin and possesses numerous anti cancer properties. This is the yellow in curry powder.
  • Garlic; contains allium and several studies has shown it to be an anti cancer agent.
  • Ginger; has an anti cancer effect on the human body as it blocks the tendency of some carcinogens to cause mutations in the DNA.
  • Green tea; has a significant anti cancer effect.
  • Laetrile; also called vitamin B17 and is found in the following; millet, buckwheat, macadamia nuts, mung beans, butter beans, and the seeds of the common fruit, which is pip and stone fruit.


As you can see we have moved away from eating foods such as these to convenient foods or processed foods and when something is processed it looses its cancer fighting properties. Cancer cells are really only a symptom of a poor diet and to cure your cancer you must change your diet. Isn't that common sense?

Information of this nature is not known by your health professional because they are only taught their 3 methods of treating cancer which are a money orientated system of treatments.

The most powerful weapon against cancer is the food you choose to eat everyday and a strict natural diet will accomplish what no doctor, surgeon or oncologist could ever hope to achieve.

Questions and Answers About Cancer, Its Causes and Its Treatments.

Posted Tuesday, October 27, 2009 (28 days 7 hours ago.) Viewed 8 times.

We don't have cancer prevention today and nearly everyone is ignorant about its causes. People are faced with so many distorted facts about cancer and too many just accept what's on offer. Here are some common questions I've been asked about cancer so you can gain a little knowledge about the subject.

Q. Why is there so much cancer now days?

A. It's because of the way we now live compared to 40 to 50 years ago when cancer was rare and it's these changes that has caused the problem.

Q. What is the cause of cancer?

A. Cancer doesn't have a single cause, it has many causes, our wrong food choices being just one of them but it's the most important cause. Other contributing factors are our sedentary lifestyle and the chemicals we encounter everyday. All these causes weaken our defence system which allows cancer cells to become established.

Q. My friend's father had treatment for his cancer but died a year later, why didn't it cure him?

A. The treatments now days are only removing cancer growths; they don't look at the root cause why it first appeared so naturally it will just reappear again, usually in some other location.

Q. If my cancer has reappeared is it too late to do something about it?

A. No, it's never too late, the human body has a natural ability to heal itself but it does need a little help by making simple lifestyle changes.

Q. What is the connection between cancer and the immune system?

A. The immune system is very important because it's the reason why the cancer appeared in the first place; it had been weakened and allowed cancer cells to become established.

Q. How does our wrong food choices cause us to get cancer?

A. We need to maintain our health throughout life and the food we eat daily with its vitamins and phytochemicals does that for us. Today we are mostly eating processed food and any food that's been processed has lost its nutritional value.

Q. Can cancer be passed from one person to another?

A. No, it can't, it is not contagious.

Q. What about genetics, we are told that if our parents had cancer it is likely that we will also get cancer?

A. It's not genetics in so much as lifestyle factors; we pick up bad habits from our parents because they were our teachers. These habits can be easily broken.

Q. How successful is radiation and chemotherapy?

A. While our orthodox medical system does have its share of success with some leukaemia's and lymphomas, unfortunately the most common cancers are as resistance to their treatments as they were 40 to 50 year ago.

Q. What about cancer tests like mammograms for breast cancer and PSA test for prostate cancer?

A. They are important but they are not 100 percent reliable. Also for cancer to be detected it has to be of a certain size so it takes many years before symptoms become apparent.

Q. Is there other ways to treat cancer or are there only surgery, radiation and chemotherapy?

A. Yes there are other ways and that is to address the reasons why the cancer first appeared and allow the body to heal which it will do. By doing so you are strengthening the immune system and the body will remove the cancer naturally.

Q. How long will it be before we have a cure for cancer?

A. Unfortunately that's not going to happen. We've been looking for a cure for nearly 40 years since President Nixon declared war on the disease in 19:71. Cancer is a deficiency disease and you won't fix that with a pill. The only way to cure it is to remedy the deficiency.

We spend billions of dollars in treating cancer today yet we spend little promoting the consumption of fresh fruit and vegetables, foods that medicine well knows are helpful in preventing and reversing cancer. Unfortunately the bulk of research money goes towards looking for a cure, not preventing cancer or promoting treatments that are beneficial.
