How to Stay Free and Clear of Cancer

July 4th, 2008 by admin | No Comments | Filed in Uncategorized

Few diseases in today’s world are as feared as cancer. People believe that it strikes at random, and there is little they can do to protect themselves. Luckily there are many steps you can take in your life that will drastically reduce your risk of developing this disease. Even if you are genetically inclined to get cancer, there are actions you can take to protect yourself and minimize your risks.

The first step is understanding what cancer is. Cancer is a condition that can form in most areas of the body. Simply put, cancer occurs when your body’s cells begin to multiply rapidly and erratically, causing what is known as a tumor in an area of the body. The cancer cells can metastasize to other parts of the body. This means cancerous cells break off the original tumor and travel to other areas of the body causing even more tumors. Once cancer has metastasized it becomes much more difficult to treat effectively.

Now you’re probably wondering what steps you can take to from taking over your body. One of the best ways to keep your body’s cells from becoming cancerous is to detoxify your body. Toxins that are trapped in the body create the perfect environment for the development and rapid growth of cancer.

Detoxification can be accomplished through many methods. One easy way to detoxify is to take 2oz of fresh wheatgrass juice daily, along with lots of extra water. This will purge many detrimental toxins that are lingering in your system, just waiting to cause serious health problems. You should continue this for at least three months, to allow all of the toxins to be flushed. Wheatgrass makes the body much more alkaline, and cancer cannot survive in highly alkaline environments. Detoxification is incredibly beneficial, however, if your diet is poor and inconsistent toxins will build up again and you will be back where you started. Consider making wheatgrass a permanent addition to you diet and taking the next step below.

A healthy, balanced diet is a highly effective, preventative measure against cancer. It is clear that a very poor diet, filled with processed fats and chemicals, is extremely hard on the body. The unhealthy fats and chemicals consumed in a poor diet allow cells to become weak and eventually cancerous. If you feed your body healthy, natural foods, not only will you feel significantly better, but you will have much less risk of many diseases including cancer.

A good diet has lots of raw fruits and vegetables along with a good variety of healthy meats such as fish and chicken. You should absolutely avoid processed fats, which are so commonly used in fast food establishments. These fats are unbelievably unhealthy, and they drastically up your risk for serious disease.

Next in is a steady exercise plan. Body’s that are regularly exercised are simply much more healthy and disease resistant than sedentary bodies. If you are serious about preventing cancer you won’t take this lightly. Exercise does wonders for your physical health. It ups your immune system, making every part of your body more efficient and healthy.

If you have been sedentary for much of your life, don’t worry. Simply start exercising today, and continue for the rest of your life. Do this regularly, and you will quickly become a believer in the abilities of exercise. Start small and work your way up to at least 30 minutes a day, 5 days a week. If you have a hard time exercising because of joint pain, try swimming. Exercising in water will relieve most of the pressure on your joints. Simply find a plan that works for you and stick to it religiously.

After detoxifying your body, improving your diet, and exercising regularly, you only need to be aware of a few more things. Watch out for too much sun. People who tan frequently are more likely to develop . This doesn’t mean you should never tan or be in the sun. It simply means don’t over do it.

Be aware of environmental causes of cancer. Radon gas, asbestos, and anything radioactive will increase your risk of cancer greatly. Simply be alert to the hazards you may be living near and deal with them accordingly.

If you or someone you know already has cancer, here is what to do apart from what your doctor recommends. Begin taking 2oz of wheatgrass per day along with 3oz of VIBE from Eniva. This will tremendously boost your body’s ability to fight off the cancer.

Four hundred cases of stage four terminal cancers have gone into remission or disappeared entirely using very high doses of Vibe. The wheatgrass strengthens and amplifies the effects of this treatment by increasing blood oxygen levels and alkalizing the body.

If you put into practice what you have read here you will be rewarded with a vibrant, healthy body that performs its best and is resistant to cancer and other life threatening diseases.

Skin Cancer: The New Silent Killer

July 4th, 2008 by admin | No Comments | Filed in Uncategorized

Mary Katherine Grant was a successful 68-year-old career woman who managed hospitals with hundreds of people, traveled the world, enjoyed golfing, and loved spending time in the sun.

The latter is what took her life.

We’ve heard it all before: Don’t talk to strangers, be careful when alone at night, smoking isn’t good for you… but never “the sun can kill you!” Our family, like thousands of other families, learned the hard way: it can. And now, with all the talk about the disappearing ozone layer and environmental/global warming, there is a desperate need for much more awareness of the dangers of the sun, and .

I wish my aunt realized the dangers before cut her life short.

When we think of the effects of the sun’s rays on our skin, we usually think about the exposed areas of our bodies and our face. Those dreaded signs of aging we begin to see in our 30s, as well as the pain of a good sunburn, immediately come to mind. But the effects of the sun on the scalp are rarely considered, if at all.

This easily overlooked area of skin, hidden by a full head of hair, is where it started for my aunt.

After her hairdresser told her of a small, irregularly-shaped mole hidden by her hair, my aunt visited her dermatologist for a checkup. The news was grim: cancerous . After more visits to her dermatologist, and then many more skin experts, my aunt was diagnosed with STAGE 4 – the final stage immediately before the terminal phase, Stage 5. There was little all those specialists could do. She had no previous symptoms. No pain. No weakness. My aunt felt great, looked even better and traveled the country weekly. But, she was rapidly dying.

After multiple surgeries over three years, various expensive medications and treatments, the cancer spread deeper into her skin, into the dermis. The specialists tried to stay ahead of the aggressive cancer by removing the cancerous areas, including a four inch by four inch plate of her scull, but by then the cancer had spread throughout her body. It attacked her lymph glands, her bone, her brain. She suffered a stroke that rendered her left side unusable. On a Wednesday afternoon, my aunt took herself to the hospital complaining of a headache. She slipped into a coma. Three days later, my aunt died from a silent killer – that started from a small, almost unnoticed mole. She died from .

My aunt was one of the estimated 10,710 people in 2006 who passed away as a result of .

Once she was diagnosed, there was nothing I could do to help my aunt, but I can help my clients, others, and myself by bringing this subject to the forefront. As a professional esthetician, I make it my business to look and make suggestions to my clients. Along with a qualified dermatologist, I can help in the prevention of one person at a time.

Don’t wait until your hairdresser finds a mole. Visit a qualified dermatologist today. They will check you for irregular skin conditions, and instruct you how to do the same at home – it could save your life. Make an appointment to see a dermatologist and have your entire body checked regularly. Learn the ABCD’s of and spread the word (A-Asymmetry, B-Border, C-Color, D-Diameter). Awareness, education and early detection are our best defense. Most importantly, ALWAYS WEAR SUNSCREEN!

Asbestos Mesothelioma

July 4th, 2008 by admin | No Comments | Filed in Uncategorized

Asbestos Mesothelioma

Asbestos is a fibrous material that was often used for it’s
great insulating properties. When intact, the fibers perform effectively and
provide no danger to humans. However, the fibrous material breaks down
tremendously with age, and when the individual fibers are inhaled into the
lungs, asbestosis may occur in exposed individuals. Asbestosis is a condition
where the lungs develop scar tissue.

This scarring can and in most cases does result in the
onset of Asbestos Mesothelioma. One of the most dangerous cancers known to the
medical community, this condition has been the reason for controversy
surrounding the use of asbestos at all. Generally, buildings with asbestos
require complete removal and quarantine of all materials until inspections are
performed.

In this type of cancer, the lining of the lungs becomes
inflamed, cells grow abnormally and the condition is extremely painful for the
patient. The condition can be either benign or malignant, both requiring
treatment although only the malignant variety is known to spread to surrounding
tissues and organs in the body.

The incubation period for this type of cancer can range
from twenty to fifty years from the time of exposure. Many new cases are being
discovered every day, however the number of new cases is anticipated to heavily
decline as a result of removal and regulatory efforts regarding the use of
asbestos.

Shortness of breath and chest pain are the two most
commonly reported signs of asbestos Mesothelioma, however other symptoms may
include rapid weight loss, abdominal pain and swelling, anemia, bowel
obstruction and unexplained fevers. If you were ever exposed to asbestos and
you experience these symptoms it is imperative to get to a doctor as soon as
possible for testing.

If the cancer has spread, you may also experience trouble
swallowing or facial swelling and pain.

Treatment for this type of cancer will vary on the patient,
their general health and the stage of the disease. Commonly used treatment
options are , radiation and in some cases surgery. Prognosis will be
determined after complete testing, and will depend on the severity of the
cancer.

Mesothelioma – for terms page

Mesothelioma is cancer within the lining cells of the
lungs, and the chest cavity (peritoneum) or the lining of the heart
(pericardium). Generally, patients diagnosed with Mesothelioma have at some
point in their lives come in contact with asbestos, either at home or at their
jobs. Unfortunately, it takes many years for cancer to develop in these cases
and people who were exposed as long as 50 years ago are just now being
diagnosed. This is a very controversial cancer, resulting in many legislation
changes regarding the use of asbestos and many lawsuits against the companies
that continued to use the substance knowing it presented a potential serious
hazard.

Does Stress Cause CANCER?

July 4th, 2008 by admin | No Comments | Filed in Uncategorized

One of the main causes of death today is stress. People think it is cancer, or heart disease. But how do you think it gets started? Stress is present in all areas of our lives, and we have become so used to it that we are even unaware of its constant presence in our lives. Yet, stress invades our space when we are stuck in a bumper-to-bumper traffic jam and the cars are not moving. We feel stress when we rush to catch the morning train because we left a little bit later than usual. Stress attacks us with billboards advertising everywhere your eye turns, with blaring music and engine noises. We are invaded with pollution, we go to shops and our senses are blasted with stimulus to get us to spend our money, music, announcements, colours, signs to read. Have you ever been on a holiday to a really quiet place? If you’ve been to a quiet place, it might have been at the beach or the mountain, or in the country, but it would have been a place where there is no television, no radio, no music of any sort, and the external stimulation was provided by natural sounds. This is getting increasingly more difficult to find, even your local café or restaurant is saturated with music, loud cappuccino machines and many TV sets.

The fact that conditions such as stress have a serious impact on immunity is no longer in question. Temporary stress, like studying for an exam, can completely wipe out the body’s interferon levels, literally reducing them to 0. Interferon is necessary for certain cells of the immune system to do their jobs. For example, one kind of immune cells is a lymphocyte known as the natural killer cell. Natural killer cells have 2 functions. First, they patrol the body and seek out virus-infected cells for elimination. Second, they seek out and destroy cancer cells. In students, the stress of exam week often results in colds, cold sores or other minor illnesses, perhaps as a result of the poor natural killer cell activity brought about by low interferon levels. In terms of long-term health, chronic stress is much more important than short-term stress. Walter Cannon first described the body’s response to acute stress which he called the fight or flight response, in 1929. When we are faced with an emergency, there is a miraculous symphony that plays itself out flawlessly in the body.

Adrenaline pours out of the adrenal glands, causing blood pressure to rise and the heart to beat more forcefully. At the same time, sugar is liberated from storage in the liver and pours into the bloodstream. This rapidly burning fuel is quickly delivered t our muscles, giving us uncommon strength. Adrenaline simultaneously improves visual acuity, short-term memory, and mental sharpness. We can make decisions fast and then act on the, we can survive. To learn more about how stress causes disease, read Cancer Free For Life.

If you have a scare in traffic, your body responds instantly. A minute later, calm prevails unless you decide to wallow in anger or frustration. Then stress can become chronic when we hang on to ancient anger for years. Research showed that chronic stress leads to enlarged adrenal glands and the thymus gland, the producer of T-lymphocytes used to fight cancer, is very small. Chronic stress leads to illness. When we are stressed the hypothalamus secretes a hormone which causes the adrenal glands to manufacture cortisol. In the long run, it is a suppressor of the immune system. It prevents the formation of new immune cells, and inhibits the activity of the ones already in the system.
