Pink Ribbons, Yellow Bracelets, and Cancer

Cancer is big business.

In general, the business thrives on people's misunderstanding of what Cancer actually is.  The Pharmaceutical and Medical industries have been all too happy to
fill this void in knowledge in pursuit of their own profits, not your health.

According to certain schools of thought, Cancer is a toxic condition of the blood.  For the most part, it primarily arises out of poor eating habits and exposure to toxic chemicals.  Another way of saying it is that Cancer is a perpetual acidic condition of the blood.  Once a certain threshold (which is different for everyone) is reached, cancer cells begin to form.  In effect, Cancer is a defense of the body.  A tumour is the end-product of the body localizing cancer by isolating it from the rest of the body.  The nature of Cancer itself however, is exponential in growth once it begins.  This is why you see such a rapid progression.

The biggest lie I believe is chemotherapy.  The idea of bombarding an already compromised system with harmful, toxic radiation is beyond me.  The reason it is seen as the only alternative is because most people would not want to change their lifestyle completely as Cancer would demand.

The lifestyle changes would require an abstinence from Processed foods including those containing additives and preservatives, Alcohol, Refined Flour and Sugar, and a religious intake of good quality supplements including Antioxidants, Vitamins, and Minerals. It would require exercise, adequate rest, and a positive attitude.

In essence, one would need to help the body heal itself and ideally make lifestyle changes early in order to prevent Cancer from even happening in the first place.

Unfortunately, most people diagnosed with Cancer make these changes all too late.  By the time they are diagnosed, and owing to Cancer's ability to rapidly take over, the situation is usually too far gone.  They usually end up in a hospital, racking up thousands in medical costs and "treatments" with little chance of recovering in the long-term.

If you are going to undergo Chemotherapy, supplement your diet with good quality Antioxidants, Vitamins, and Minerals and eat a good diet.  This will provide the body the nutrients it needs while undergoing the assaults of Cancer and traditional Chemotherapy treatments. 

Finally, a disclaimer:

I am not a medical professional and do not make any claims as such.  The above article is only a personal opinion which happens to be shared by many others in the Macrobiotic community and those who practice alternative forms of Medicine. 
Every individual case is different, and one should consider their own situation in perspective when making decisions as to the treatment of any disease.
