Easiest cancer fighting food
|
|
One thing that is extremely important
is a reduction in the meat that you eat. If you’re eating huge amounts
of meat to get your protein you should start reducing this immediately
and replace it with Shiitake mushrooms or fish with Omega 3 fatty acids.
Your pancreas produces pancreatic enzymes which are good for fighting cancer
by making the cancer cell protective walls weak. Unfortunately processing
meat uses up almost all your pancreatic enzymes!
If you're an ESL teacher you can use this article in many ways. 1. Discuss
the effects of fatty food on the body. Discuss the difference between Omega
3 and Omega 6 and why Omega 3 is better. Talk about relatives and friends
who've suffered from cancer. Discuss the 'cures' we have today and the
ones that existed thousands of years ago. Talk about what areas of your
student's diet may need improvement. Each paragraph will encourage discussion! |
NB: This cancer fighting food guide was researched and written for a
cancer sufferer who was diagnosed as terminal. Unfortunately she did not
live long enough to take advantage of anything on this list. So, if you
think you have cancer in your family, please change your diet now!
I’ve written this so that the easiest fighting foods and drinks are
first, followed by the harder ones. Don't forget to drink plenty of water
- at least 10 glasses a day, as keeping your cells well hydrated enables
them to fight cancer better.
1. Shiitake mushrooms
History
Used for over 2000 years in Asian countries to boost the immune system
to fight various diseases including cancer
Main features
Contains Lentinan and polysaccharides that boost the immune system
to fight cancer.
Testimonial from the net
* “I had an uncle who had cancer (not sure which cancer). He started
using the mushrooms and it helped his body to fight it off. He still eats
the mushroom and the cancer hasn’t come back.”
Where to buy
* Supermarket Shiitake only contains about 8 polysaccharides whereas
the original oak grown version contains over 72. But it still contains
Lentinan which is an important cancer fighting agent so even the supermarket
ones will work. You may be able to get dried Shiitake mushrooms from Asian
supermarkets that were grown on oak logs. Simply soak for 30 minutes before
eating.
How to eat
* Eat them every day. Either washed raw, in a salad, in a soup, as
a sauce, as a broth or any other way that makes them more interesting to
eat. You should start this straight away as there are no known bad side
effects. Anything to boost the immune system after a dose of chemotherapy
is good.
2. Green Tea
History
Used for over 2000 years in Asian countries to boost the immune system,
fight diseases and cancer. NB: Try to avoid teabags as it is believed they
don’t help as much.
Main features
Contains powerful antioxidants and catechins that fight cancer and
has been proven to destroy cancer cells in a laboratory.
Testimonial
* Since changing from normal tea to green tea I haven’t been
as sick. I’d always got the flu at least 4 to 5 times a year. Now I only
get a mild cold once or twice.
Where to buy
* Anywhere that sells tea!
How to drink.
* No bad side effects so drink as many cups a day as you’d like. Drop
any caffeine drinks and replace with green tea. At least 4 cups a day would
be a good place to start.
3. Walking and Sunlight
Walk at least one hour a day. The walking will improve the circulation
of your lymphatic system allowing your body to increase its ability to
remove toxins.
Spend 10-15 minutes in sunlight about 3 times a week. Do NOT wear sunglasses
or any glasses for that matter when doing this. Being next to a window
doesn’t help. You need to be outside. The sunlight will increase the amount
of Vitamin D in your body which helps boost your immune system. Note that
sunburn reduces your body’s immune system effectiveness so don’t get burnt.
This list is continued here:
Well, I hope this advice is helpful to you. Remember, this information
has been assembled from research papers and articles discussed on the net,
so, I can’t personally guarantee that any of it works. And, if you’re allergic
to some of these, you may need to do some more research. But, knowing that
I’ve got cancer in my family, I’ve introduced a lot of these into my diet.
Better to be safe than sorry!
