ancer!  Perhaps no other diagnosis is as feared.  Yet many people fear the treatment options nearly as much as the disease itself—and rightly so. Conventional cancer therapy is toxic and dehumanizing—and, by and large, it doesn’t work.  Its reliance on aggressive, invasive, and toxic methods such as surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy is based on the faulty paradigm that the body must be purged of cancer by any means necessary.  This may have seemed reasonable in the early 1890’s when William Halstead, M.D., performed the first radical mastectomy, but it has proven to be so wrong over the last century that continuing to adhere to it constitutes more fraud than honest mistake.

In this report, I am not going to tell you what you should do if you have cancer. Only you can make that decision.  However, I will tell you what I would do if I had cancer.  Equally important, I well tell you what I wouldn’t do.  To begin with, I wouldn’t accept a diagnosis of cancer as a death sentence.  I wouldn’t swallow everything my doctors told me.  I would research treatment alternatives and become my own expert on my condition.  In short, I would fight for my life by all means available to me.

 The strategies that I would use to fight cancer are similar to strategies I would use to fight any  serious illness such as heart disease or diabetes: dietary modifications, targeted nutritional supplements, and other natural therapies.  The beauty of these therapies is that they can be used with whatever other treatment—conventional or alternative—you would choose to undergo.  Together, they give your body a fighting chance to heal itself.  Let’s first look at my anticancer diet.

 My Cancer-Fighting Diet

Diet is a more powerful cancer therapy then most people realize.  There is solid evidence that improved nutrition strengthens the immune system, slows the growth of tumors, and protects against metastasis (the spread of cancer).  In a study conducted at the University of Victoria, B.C. researchers examined 200 cancer patients who had experienced “spontaneous regression” (an inexplicable cure or tumor reduction).  A full 87 per cent of these patients had made major changes in their diets.

If I had cancer, I would take this research to heart.  I would switch to a primarily vegetarian diet and eliminate virtually all sources of saturated fat, including meat and dairy products, as well as trans fatty acids found in processed foods.  Diets high in these saturated fat and trans fatty acids have shown to stimulate cancer growth.  At the same time, I would include healthy fats from cold-water fish (salmon, tuna, and mackerel) and flaxseed.  The omega-3 essential fatty acids in these foods are proven to protect against cancer.
