How Nutritional Imbalance Can Cause Cancer

Our nutrition starts with the soil. Man will be forever dependent on the iron laws of nature, because the soil produces all his nutrition, as our body is adapted through millions of generations to this natural food. When man disturbs the biological balance there, dire consequences fall on him.

Rice is the main food staple of asiatic peoples. When civilization came and polished it white and prettier, important minerals and vitamins were removed and thus a disease was caused, called Beriberi.

In addition to damage to the soil, the food is refined, canned, bottled, powdered, frozen, color added, poisoned by sprays, etc, until finally it becomes a mass of dead, unnatural, partly poisoned substances. A body fed in such a way loses the harmony and cooperation of the cells and finally its natural defences, immunity and healing power.

That is the reason why our surgeons observe what the statistics show: A comprehensive survey of cancer statistics reveals an increase in incidence, morbidity and mortality, in spite of improved X-ray techniques, increasingly extensive operative procedures, and education regarding early detection. It appears that the problem of the so - called hopeless case will remain large for some time to come... Quoted from the Journal of the American Medical Association. Where there is no civilization there is no cancer (the Hunzas, Ethiopean people, etc.) Where civilization starts to change the nutrition, cancer develops.

It has been proven that cancer can not develop in a body with normal metabolism. This is the basic fact for a cancer therapy where the liver plays the essential part. The liver is affected to the highest degree by the artificial food transformation, as it is the filter for the entire digestive apparatus. It is a storage place, and besides, it transforms the components of our foodstuffs. It composes the ingredients for the hormones, activates and reactivates the vitamins and enzymes (there are about 600 different enzymes), thus, regulating and protecting the most vital process of our life. In addition to these functions, the liver is the most important organ for our detoxification.

Treating diagnosis is only possible when the localized symptoms, namely the cancer growths, appear. Orthodox medicine is treating these symptoms only. This is apparent by the ever - increasing percentage of recurrences after the growths are cut out. The real underlying cause is neglected. No wonder that many leading surgeons at the end of their careers, come to the conclusion that surgery is not the answer to this problem. The same conviction was claimed by the radium and X-ray authorities, who even sent a warning from the International Congress in Rome to the American Medical Association that every X-ray treatment shortened the life of the patient.

With proper nutrition, the condition of the metabolism and the liver will show immediate improvement. It is deceiving, however, to regard the disappearance of symptoms as a cure. To remove the underlying cause and accomplish the cure of cancer, means the re-establishment of the whole metabolism, especially that of the liver.

Alzheimer's Disease - Symptoms & Coping Needs

Alzheimer's disease is a symbol of dementia or the gradual loss of a sound mind. It is progressive in nature, while gradually robbing the victim of the ability to think and to properly function, sometimes lessening their lifespan. Alzheimer's disease is not a standard part of the aging process. You do not normally expect this to happen in the latter part of life. Alzheimer's disease is not the rule, but rather the exception in old age.

Some of the suspected causes quite often involve the following: the persons age and the history of the family, certain DNA genes,higher than normal deposits of protein in the brain, problems with the immune system and other environmental factors.

It is necessary to watch for warning signals and indications of alzheimer's disease. You can distinguish Alzheimer's from other dementia distinctive changes that take place in the brain, but are only visible with a microscopic exam. during an autopsy. Alzheimer's is a neuro-degenerative and progressive disease that takes place as nerve cells die in the brain, resulting in the memory and thinking becoming impaired, as well as confusion and restlessness, behavior and personality changes, flawed judgment and communication skills and unable to follow instructions, deteriorating in speech, flawed thought process involving visual and space awareness and emotional insensitivity. With alzheimer's disease, motor performance is often protected.

Forgetting pieces of knowledge or information gets more routine and there is less of a chance of remembering. The person may sometimes not recognize friends and family members, which is perhaps the most painful aspect of alzheimer's disease. It is needful to gather as much information as you are capable of gathering, as your doctor is going to ask many questions regarding medical conditions which are both past and present. He will want family history of other members who possibly may have had the disease in some form or other. There are some families who may have several members that have been afflicted, but because of being open to the identical surroundings, it may not be possible to know how much of the fault lies in heredity. There may be times when there is no one available that is capable of answering such questions. Therefore, having collected this information could prove very valuable for all concerned, in helping your doctor with an early diagnosis of alzheimer's disease before the condition is too aggressive.

Alzheimer's disease is very disruptive and stressful for the entire family. Alzheimer's, as well as other dementia problems with the memory, judgments and also with the thought process, make it difficult for the patient to work or to take any part in the daily social and family life. Those who have alzheimer's disease, as well as the family and other care-takers, need as much love and support as possible, from family as well as friends, in order to cope with the situation.

The Mayo Clinic has experts who offer lots of information and advice concerning the treatment and needed care for patients who are afflicted with alzheimer's disease. They will be able to answer many of your questions and explain the process of this disease.
