The issue of cancer and diet 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!
