Report on first two days of talks

The talks are here: http://www.cancerworldsummit2.com/ but each day’s talk disappears after 24 hours.

There are several things that are mentioned over and over, for people who have cancer or who want to avoid getting it, and much of it is in agreement with the Hay diet.

First, good quality, seasonal, preferably organic, natural foods, especially raw foods. Exercise (but not overdone), filtered, clean water, avoid sugars, have vitamin C and D.

If you have cancer, they all seem to recommend a vegan diet and things like coffee enemas.

The second talk on day 2 was the most comprehensive on diet for avoiding cancer, which is what I’m interested in, and the following is my summary:

• raw foods where possible
• exercise every day
• regular juices, especially greens
• keep the system alkaline
• drink lots of filtered water
• no sugar (except that in fruit)
• no GMOs, so no soy or canola oil
• lots of vegetables
• animal protein from wild animals/fish, or organic, free range animals not taking hormones
• no drinks like diet coke etc
• eat foods in season
• Brazil nuts (for selenium)
• curcumin and turmeric
• take milk thistle, vitamin C, fish oil, vitamin D
• green tea
• rosveretrol from red wine (but obviously not overdone)
• milk thistle

This lady was the most impressive so far. More info at: http://drconnealy.com/

None of this is incompatible with the Hay diet, and it seems to be a simple way to stay on the right track.

 

 

More on cancer prevention

In my research on cancer prevention I’ve found a list [1] of foods that ‘increase the anti-cancer effects’ of chemotherapy drugs.

It appears to follow then that these foods have anti-cancer effects of their own, and so we should eat a diet including lots of these things (without going overboard on any of them).

They are:
apples*
salad greens such as rocket (arugula), mustard greens, watercress
green vegetables, such as broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cabbage, kale
berries, such as blueberries, cranberries,
cauliflower
celery
leeks and onions
grapes and grape juice
green tea, red tea
horseradish, turmeric**
fish, such as mackerel, salmon, wild sardines (but avoid fish oil)
olive oil

*Apple seeds contain vitamin B17, said to be a powerful anti-cancer chemical (see, for example

http://www.worldwithoutcancer.org.uk/aspreventative.html

. Eating a lot of apple seeds is probably going to poison you, but eating the seeds of an apple you’re eating could be a good idea.

**Turmeric is supposed to protect the brain from chemotherapy [1], so it stands to reason it probably protects the brain from other toxic chemicals.

Free cancer prevention/alternative treatments talks

I don’t know about anyone else, but I’m interested in not getting cancer. There seems to be an epidemic of it around – I know six people with cancer at various stages at the moment, including one going through the worst stages of chemotherapy, in bed and too sick to get out of it today. From seeing her suffering it seems like chemo is a state-sanctioned poisoning programme, and an Australian study suggests it is very ineffective (like only about 3.5% for breast cancer [1][2]). Another friend who had breast cancer died some time ago from leukaemia caused by the radiotherapy. If I ever get it, I’d like to avoid chemo and radiotherapy if possible, so I’m doing some research now, while I’m still healthy.

If there’s a way to prevent cancers, I’m in for it! This is one reason why I like the Hay diet, because of its abundance of fruits and vegetables, and its emphasis on natural foods. It seems such a healthy, sensible diet to me.

I’ve learned of some free talks on cancer prevention and alternative treatments for cancer available here: http://www.icnr.com/articles/ischemotherapyeffective.html

I obviously haven’t heard the talks as they haven’t started yet, but I have registered and will listen in. It’s free, so there’s nothing to lose. I’m not an affiliate or anything like that, but I think it’s wise to listen to all kinds of people and see what they have to say.
