All cells have a requirement for glucose, but cancer cells consume as much as 4 to 5 times more glucose than normal, healthy cells. In fact, they're unable to multiply rapidly without it.It's simply astonishing to me that this simple

knowledge hasn't become the basis for Rule One in any cancer fight: Stop eating sugar immediately. -----------------------------Sugar, minus nutrients -----------------------------I asked HSI Panelist Allan Spreen, M.D., if he could shed some light on the association of sugar and cancer, and here's what he had to say: "Nutritionally oriented doctors have known about the refined sugar/cancer association for decades. Dr. Warburg was about as brilliant as they come, right up there with Hans Nieper, M.D., Linus Pauling, Ph.D., and possibly even the incomparable Nikola Tesla (no doctorate... just plain super-humanly brilliant). His medical insight was amazing."It's pretty easy to figure that the cells that are dividing (multiplying) the fastest have the highest requirement for energy (to sustain such accelerated growth). Cutting out the

source is similar to cutting off the blood supply - though not quite as drastic, it's certainly a step worth taking."Another issue is the fact that refined sugars are not nutrient-dense... they contain none of the nutrients necessary for the assimilation of the sugar ingested. Therefore, the body must drain body stores (if any are present) to handle the job, leaving less (or none) for other tasks. This is why chewing on natural sugar cane is not the problem - it's eating the pure, concentrated, naked-calorie refined sugar after processing out the water, fiber (which slows the sugar assimilation), and nutrients."Obviously giving up sugar isn't the cure for cancer. But I'd recommend the tactic STRONGLY to anyone with cancer (or, actually, any other illness)."-----------------------------Substitutes help the cause

-----------------------------Because I've addressed sugar substitutes in previous e-Alerts (most recently in "The Sweet Lowdown" 6/3/04), I wondered if one of these alternate sweeteners (such as stevia or xylitol) might also feed the cancer cells in the same way sugar does. Dr. Spreen said, "Stevia won't, because it's zero-calorie. Xylitol could be more of a quandary. It does contain calories (about 40% less than sugar), and it's labeled a 'sugar-alcohol.' Apparently that status causes a slower release into the body and less absorption, giving it a lower glycemic index. For that reason it would be less of a problem as it isn't so strong a refined carbohydrate. How much less would be controversial, since the sugar/cancer cell growth issue itself is a tough one." Keep in mind that the body also breaks down carbohydrates into glucose, so a diet that's heavy with high

carbohydrate foods can also fuel cancer cell growth as well as other health problems that are known to be linked to excess blood glucose, including: obesity, diabetes, heart disease, an overgrowth of pathogenic intestinal flora, gout, panic attacks, hyperactivity, and depression.-----------------------------Every little bit helps -----------------------------Most doctors are not nutritionists, so they're either unaware of the link between sugar and cancer, or they simply neglect to mention it to their patients. If someone you care about is fighting cancer, don't assume they've heard about this important nutritional detail. As always, we encourage you to share this information with anyone you know that might benefit from it.For anyone who's fighting cancer, there's obviously only one way to go concerning refined sugar. To fight the good

fight you have to remove anything that might support the disease. **************************************************************ULTIMATE HEALTH - 100% RISK FREE!Discover the ultimate natural healing program that can help you:* Cleanse your arteries* Cancer-proof your cells* Relieve inflamed joints* Restore your natural energy* Erase aches, pains, and other health worries forever...

As farfetched as that may seem, apparently there are such documented cases. Fortunately, most of those who hear the ringing (usually caused by age-related nerve loss in the inner ear) don't have it quite that bad. But tinnitus often affects quality of life, especially in cases where it contributes to sleep disorders. Some time ago, an HSI member named Larry started a thread in the HSI Forum titled "Hearing Disorders." In response to Larry's request for ways to treat tinnitus, a member named Brynda sent an e-mail to offer her experience: "In

regards to Larry, I had ringing in my ears... kept me awake at night. I learned that my Atlas (which is at the top of your spine) was out of alignment. Went to my chiropractic physician and now I do not have this problem. I go back weekly until it conforms and the muscles can hold it in place. Thought this may help Larry. It's worth a try."More than 20 other members have responded to Larry's original posting, with suggestions ranging from aerobic exercise, to CoQ10 supplements, to reducing carbohydrates, and more. If you happen to be one of the many who have tinnitus, you might find a natural remedy that works for you in Larry's "Hearing Disorders" thread. Or better yet - if you've successfully addressed tinnitus, please send us an e-mail and let us know how you managed to make that ringing a thing of the past.
