Every person has some cancer cells in their body. However, no tests detect them until they multiply to a number of several billion.
This is because a strong immune system can continuously remove them from the body and thus prevent their further multiplication.
Tumors arise when this process is disrupted. The reason can be a deficiency of some important nutrients, an inappropriate lifestyle, unhealthy foods, environmental influence, or genetics.
There are ways to support the immune system and thus prevent the proliferation of cancer cells.
But before we discuss them, let’s look at what some standard cancer treatments do to the body.
Chemotherapy, radiation, and their effect on the body
Chemotherapy is devastating for the body. It is true that it destroys cancer cells, but it also destroys healthy kinds of cells that divide more rapidly.
It most affects cells of the lungs, kidneys, heart, liver, as well as other organs. Radiation has a similar effect, burning tissues and causing severe burns.
Initially, after starting chemotherapy or radiation, tumors shrink.
However, with longer application, cancer cells develop resistance to them similar to how bacteria do to antibiotics.
Over time they stop working and the cancer in the body begins to multiply ever faster. The reason is also the weakened immune system and increased toxicity left behind by these standard treatment methods.
The body thus becomes increasingly susceptible even to common infections, which it previously dealt with without problems.
Mutated and rapidly growing cancer cells begin to spread to other parts of the body. Then it doesn’t take long before organ failure occurs and the patient dies.
Measures to prevent tumor growth
For effective prevention, but also treatment of cancer, follow the following principles.
Eat alkalizing foods
Cancer cells can only survive in an acidic environment. Therefore, replace processed foods that cause over-acidification with foods that leave an alkaline trace in the body.
Also try to replace red meats with poultry and fish.
Avoid milk
Cancer cells often feed on mucus. Milk and dairy products promote the production of mucus in the body. Therefore, reduce or completely avoid dairy products.
The exception is plain yogurts mixed with flaxseed oil – this is a well-known cancer remedy according to Dr. Budwig.
Alternatively, replace cow’s milk with almond milk, but never soy, because it promotes cancer growth due to the presence of estrogen-like substances.
Avoid sugar and carbohydrates
Cancer cells obtain energy by fermenting sugar, which they consume several times more of than healthy cells.
Therefore, try to avoid simple sugars (sucrose, fructose) under all circumstances. Also significantly limit other carbohydrates such as bread or pasta.
Alkalize the body
By supporting and creating an alkaline environment in the body, you will significantly limit the growth of cancer cells.
Foods that help with this include seeds, nuts, whole grain foods (in moderation, see the note on carbohydrates in the previous paragraph), vegetables and fruits (also in moderation because of their fructose content).
Some anti-cancer diets, like the Breuss cure (drinking fresh vegetable juices), completely omit fruit.
Try to consume foods raw. Cooking or pasteurization destroys almost all enzymes and many vitamins in them.
Take important dietary supplements
Important dietary supplements for prevention, as well as treatment of cancer, include the following:
- vitamins C, A, E, D and the B group
- beta glucans (powerful immune stimulants)
- minerals potassium, selenium, magnesium, zinc
- IP6, inositol
- herbs – garlic, ginger, turmeric mixed with a little pepper, dandelion root
- Drink teas with anti-tumor effects
- Choose green tea instead of coffee. Other teas with anti-tumor effects include, for example, Essiac tea (a popular anti-tumor tea blend).
Fermented green or black tea, also known as kombucha, also has excellent effects.
Eat enzymes that support digestion
Important are proteolytic enzymes like trypsin, chymotrypsin, bromelain and papain, which disrupt tumor walls and thus allow the immune system to reach them more easily.
These enzymes are used by the body to digest meat and proteins, so consume less meat so that enough enzymes remain available to fight tumors.
Alternatively, supplement them in the form of dietary supplements. Betaine HCl is also suitable to support digestion.
Have movement and physical activity
Movement is very important for oxygenating the body because cancer cannot live in an environment with sufficient oxygen.
In addition, movement contributes to lymph flow and detoxification.
During physical activity the indispensable antioxidant glutathione is also produced, which the body must make itself. Artificial administration is ineffective because it is broken down in the stomach and during subsequent digestion in the intestines.
Be relaxed
Cancer affects your body and mind. The reverse is also true.
Therefore try to stay positive, avoid stress, get enough sleep, relax.
