Cancer Update

2. Cancer cells occur between 6 to mo re than 10 times in a person's lifetime



5. To over come the multiple nutritional deficiencies , changing diet and including supplements will strengthen the immune system.


7. Radiation while destroying cancer cells also bu rns , scars and damages healthy cells , tissues and organs.

8. Initial treatment with chemotherapy and radiation will often reduce tumour size. However prolonged use of chemotherapy and radiation do not result in more tumour destruction.

9 When the body has too much toxic burden from chemotherapy and radiation the immune system is either compromised or destroyed , hence the person can succum b to various kinds of infections and complications.



a. Sugar feeds cancer. By cutting off sugar, one important food supply to the cancer cells is removed. Sugar substitutes like NutraSweet , Equal , Spoonful , etc are made with Aspartame, and Aspartame is harmful. A better natural substitute would be Manuka honey or molasses, but only in very small amounts. Table salt has a chemical added to make it white in colour. A better alternative is Bragg's aminos or sea salt.


c. Cancer cells thrive in an acid environment. A meat-based diet is acidic so it is best to eat fish and a little chicken, rather than beef or pork. Meat also contains livestock antibiotics, growth hormones and parasites, which are all harmful, especially to people with cancer.

d. A diet made up of 80% fresh vegetables and juice, whole grains, seeds, nuts and a little fruit helps put the body into an alkaline environment. The remaining 20% can be from cooked food including beans. Fresh vegetable juices provide live enzymes that are easily absorbed and reach down to cellular levels within 15 minutes to nourish and enhance growth of healthy cells. To obtain live enzymes for building healthy cells try to drink fresh vegetable juice (most vegetables including bean sprouts)and eat some raw vegetables 2 or 3 times a day. Because enzymes are destroyed at temperatures of 104 degrees F (40 degrees C), eat uncooked vegetables and fruit.

e. A vo id coffee, tea, and chocolate, which have high caffeine.  Green tea is a better alternative and has cancer-fighting properties. The best water to drink is purified water, or filtered, to avoid known toxins and heavy metals in tap water.  Avoid distilled water because it is acidic and contains none of the healthy minerals required for a healthy body.

12. Meat protein is difficult to digest and requires a lot of digestive enzymes. Undigested meat remaining in the intestines becomes putrified and leads to more toxic buildup.

13. Cancer cell walls have a tough protein covering. By refraining from or eating less meat, more enzymes are freed to attack the protein walls of cancer cells.  This allows the body's killer cells to destroy the cancer cells.

14. Some supplements build up the immune system (IP6 , Flor-essence, Ess iac , anti-oxidants, vitamins, minerals, EFAs, etc.) to enable the body's own killer cells to destroy cancer cells. Other supplements like vitamin E are known to cause apoptosis (programmed cell death), the body's normal method of disposing of damaged, unwanted, or unneeded cells.

15. Cancer is a disease of the mind, body, and spirit. A proactive and posi tive spirit will help the cancer warrior conquer and survive. Anger, unforgiveness and bitterness put the body into a stressful and acidic environment. Learn to have a loving and forgiving spirit. Learn to relax and enjoy life.



1. No plastic containers in micro.

2. No water bottles in freezer.

3. No plastic wrap in microwave.




Paper isn't bad, except that you don't know what has gone into the paper. It's just safer to use tempered glass, Corning Ware, etc.  Dr. Fujimoto reminded us that a while ago some fast food restaurants moved away from foam containers to paper. The dioxin problem is one of the reasons.

Also, he pointed out that plastic wrap, such as Saran, is just as dangerous when placed over foods to be cooked in th e microwave. As the food is heated, the high heat causes poisonous toxins to actually melt out of the plastic wrap and drip into the food. Cover food with a paper towel instead.
