My Cancer Nutrition

 

I am often asked about the nutrition that saved my life from

colo-rectal squamous cell carcinoma. This is a summary of the

nutrition I used and recommend for anyone battling cancer:

 

I used Essiac Tea. It is available at most health food stores.

For more info please visit www.essiac-info.org. Authentic Essiac tea

only has 4 ingredients so read the label. They are: burdock root,

sheep sorrel, slippery elm bark and turkey rhubarb root. Essiac tea

comes in dry form that you can make yourself. It is less expensive

that way. You will need a stockpot, a metal strainer, a wooden spoon

and glass jars for storing. When I got too sick to make it myself, I

used the pre made tea. The story behind Essiac tea and it's

success

rate for curing cancer in terminal patients is amazing!

I switched to a macrobiotic diet and lifestyle. The world's

foremost authority on macrobiotics is Michio Kushi. I recommend his

books " The Macrobiotic Way " and " The Cancer Prevention

Diet " , as well

as " Making the Transition to a Macrobiotic Diet " by Carolyn

Heidenry,

to get started on a macrobiotic diet. These books are available at

most health food stores, bookstores and libraries. I needed extra

protein in my diet, so I added some tuna packed in oil, some salmon

and an egg or two on occasion. I avoid eating animal proteins, for the

most part though. I eat a lot of vegetable proteins instead.

I got an inexpensive juicer and juiced absolutely everything. At

least once a day, I have an alkaline cocktail: juice ¼ head of

cabbage

with 3 carrots. Drink your juice immediately. Don't make it ahead

of

time and store it for later use. There are a lot of good books, with

recipes, on juicing for specific health issues. The purpose of the

alkaline cocktail is to increase the body's alkalinity. The more

acidic your body, the more unhealthy you are and prone to develop

serious life threatening degenerative and autoimmune diseases. No

disease, not even cancer, can survive in a totally alkaline

environment. Another thing I do to increase alkalinity is to mix ½

teaspoon of baking soda into 6 or 8 oz. of natural spring water and

drink that every morning.

To increase alkalinity, avoid eating foods that cause acidic

conditions in the body. The biggest culprits are red meats, dairy

products, sugar, coffee, colas and acidic fruits, such as citrus and

tomatoes. You can test your body's ph level by using litmus paper

dipped into a small amount of saliva.

Other than juice, I recommend drinking only natural spring water

and as much as you possibly can everyday. Buyer beware though; not all

bottled spring water is what the label says it is. I saw a 20/20

program recently that informed me that a lot of bottled water comes

from my area, right out of the Detroit River! Ugh!!!

Also avoid aluminum toxicity. Don't use aluminum foil to

cover

food or grills. Don't use aluminum cooking or eating utensils.

Don't

eat or drink anything out of aluminum cans. I get my tuna in the

pouches these days. But a lot of pouches are lined with aluminum, so

be careful. Check the labels on all personal hygiene and cosmetic

products, including make up. Most deodorants contain aluminum. Most

hydrocortisone creams contain aluminum. My radiation burns caused me

to suffer from relentless itching. I used the Meijer store brand of

hydrocortisone cream because it is the only one I can find that

doesn't contain aluminum. Avoid mercury contamination too.

Don't eat

fish from inland rivers and lakes that may contain high levels of

mercury. If you have mercury fillings in your teeth, get rid of them

immediately!!!

I also used the very best metabolic nutrition supplements

available. They are inexpensive. These products were developed by the

man who created the first ever dietary shake and has gone on to create

more than 250 nutritional products. He has been a leader in the

nutrition industry for more than 30 years. He is a former world

champion body builder, who studied nutrition because his younger

brother suffered from polio. He won the first Mr. All Natural World

body building championship, but turned down offers to play

professional football to pursue his dream of " ridding the world of

unnecessary suffering. " These products follow all of the

guidelines

set by the FDA for nutritional supplements. The FDA neither approves

nor disproves nutritional supplements but waits until someone has

suffered serious adverse effects from a product before they remove it

from the market. None of these products has ever been removed from the

market, nor have there been any complaints to the FDA or the Better

Business Bureau about them.

Having said that, I will now tell you about the metabolic nutrition

that is credited with saving my life from a cancer I was not supposed

to have survived, as well as from a very aggressive cancer treatment

that commonly kills people, in itself. Metabolic nutrition is cellular

level nutrition and cancer is a cellular level disease.

 

VITAL GREEN is a very powerful antioxidant product that

dramatically increases the body's alkalinity. It also strengthens

the

immune system so that the mega doses of chemo I got couldn't even

kill

mine! I was told not to go around anyone who was sick because the

chemo would kill my immune system and I would die from a secondary

infection (this is after they told me I would die from the cancer

anyway!) My kids were sick all winter long. We made a trip per week

for 5 weeks to the pediatrician's office in a large Detroit

hospital.

I didn't wear a surgical mask and I never got sick with anything

other

than chemo, radiation and morphine. I didn't even lose all of my

hair!

When I got chemo, I had to go into the hospital for a week each time,

for 120 hours of continuous infusion of 5FU (5 straight days of non

stop chemo!) Then I got mitomycin (I'm not sure the dosage) in a

syringe the size of my forearm that took more than 15 minutes to

inject into my heplock! I got 25 consecutive radiation treatments,

only getting a break on Saturdays and Sundays. Then my doctor made me

stop for a week before she would give me my last 3 treatments. My

morphine was liquid Roxanol. I started at 20mg/20ml and increased to

40mg/20ml every 4 hours for 3 months. To get me from dose to dose of

the Roxanol, I used the Duragesic patch, which I changed every 3 days

for 3 months. I started at 25 mcg and increased by 25mcg a week up to

150mcg! So you can see, I was pretty sick!

REJUVACEL is the next product I used. It regenerates new healthy

cell growth. When the cancer cells were killed new healthy cells grew

at the cancer site.

BIOMEGA provided almost all of the nutrition I got after I

became too sick to eat. It contains over 120 nutritive factors;

vitamins, trace minerals, antioxidants, amino acids, electrolytes and

specialized herbs in a cold pressed aloe vera base (aloe vera has more

than 2000 healing properties by itself!) It is a liquid so it is

easily and quickly assimilated into the blood stream. It is also very

gentle on a perpetually sick stomach!

BODY FX shakes provided the rest of the nutrition I got with the

Biomega. It is called the world's most perfect food. It has the

body's exact ratio of biousable (vegetable, not animal) protein to

complex carbohydrates to essential fatty acids. It has a perfect ph

level of 7. It is a sustained release formula that provides perfect

nutrition over a 6 hour period. It comes in chocolate, vanilla and

berry flavors and is absolutely delicious. You can mix it with water

and enough ice in a blender to make it as thick as a milkshake. You

can freeze it into Popsicles for a snack. I also used it to regain my

weight after my treatment, instead of the very expensive Ensure

recommended by my doctors.

RENEU and it's powdered version, FIBER 1ST are colon

detoxification products that are credited with preventing my cancer

from advancing further up into my colon, into my inguinal lymph nodes

and who knows where from there. Instead, it just road blocked in the

rectum and grew into a 3cm by 5cm inoperable tumor! The environment in

my colon was not conducive to cancer being able to thrive and survive

in there. My cancer, in fact, started moving in the opposite

direction, to the outside of my body! We carry between 7 and 25 pounds

of putrefied fecal residue, which is caked to the walls of our colons

and can be there for up to 20 years before it is finally passed out of

our bodies. I got this info from a report in the Journal of the

American Medical Association. This provides the perfect breeding

ground for parasites, bad bacteria and candida albicans. Reneu not

only detoxifies the colon of all this crap (no pun intended), but also

provides probiotic (good) bacteria and detoxifies the entire body at

the cellular level. My doctors wanted me to use a fiber supplement

before I started my treatment. I took them the Fiber 1st and told them

I would use it rather than the OTC products they recommended. They

were absolutely amazed at the results.

BIONIC TONIC (don't laugh!) is a potassium and magnesium rich

liquid that accelerated the repair of the tissue damaged by the

cancer.

2AEP is a naturally occurring nutrient, which until now could not

be replaced with a supplement. It provides nutrition and supports the

optimum health of the cell lining through which information is passed

from cell to cell. I also used 2AEP to reverse the severe depression

and anxiety disorders that I got after the cancer and were secondary

to the cancer.

LIPOMAX10 is a liver detoxification product. Our livers perform

more than 500 chemical functions and filter all the toxins from

everything we eat, drink and breathe from being circulated throughout

our bodies. The liver becomes congested with these toxins to the point

where they start spilling out of the liver into other organs. The

pancreas is the closest organ to the liver. First Fitness is the

official sponsor of the American Diabetes Association Tour de Cure for

the second year, this year. They recognize the products as an

effective treatment for diabetes because hundreds of people have

completely reversed their diabetes and have gotten off of oral and IM

insulin that they have taken for years.

You can find out more about these products, and order them if

you wish, on my personal website:

I discovered metabolic nutrition 12 years ago after I had spent

12 years trying everything under the sun to lose an extra 70 pounds of

weight. I started working out at age 13 due to scoliosis. I was an

aerobics instructor for several years, but just couldn't burn

fat. I

lost the 70 pounds with the metabolic nutrition very effortlessly and

have kept it off for 12 years now. I had always had a weak immune

system and was always sick. I noticed as I was losing the weight that

I stopped getting sick! That is when I decided to start learning

everything I could about this " magic " nutrition.

I am not a doctor and don't claim to be able to treat or

cure

anyone from anything. The products also don't make any medical

claims

of any kind. I can, however, tell absolutely everyone I meet about how

these products saved my life, the life of my infant daughter, got my

autistic, AD/HD son off of Ritalin after 11 years of taking it and

many other of my own personal testimonies. I can relate the personal

testimonies of hundreds of other people who have had the same

miraculous health benefits from using these products, including those

of dozens of doctors across the country. I believe that God spare my

life from the cancer so that I could go out and use the nutritional

gifts He gave me to help other people save their lives too.

Bob Hurt mentioned that people think organically grown foods and

nutritional supplements are too expensive to implement into their

diets. So let me present this question to everyone: What is your life

worth? Can you place a dollar value on your life? I couldn't. I

was

supposed to have died 3 years ago. I lost my medical insurance and was

financially devastated. But I still couldn't put a dollar value

on my

life. I did whatever it took to make sure my children weren't

orphaned. I got help from family and friends. And, ironically, it

wasn't that terribly expensive to use nutrition to battle my

cancer

and save my life.

As soon as I can figure out how to do it, I want to post a copy

of a letter from my radiation oncologist, who has a Ph.D. in

traditional medicine, in which she states, in not so many words, that

my nutrition saved my life. She is the one who told me I would die.

She is the one who told me that people commonly die from the

aggressive

treatment I had. Now whenever she sees me, she tells me that she is

just amazed every time she sees me because she was absolutely sure I

would not be here now!!!

Good health and long life to all, with God's blessings! Renee
