When your body is injured for example, if you have a
cut then the cells surrounding the cut reproduce to replace the damaged cells. These cells "know" to stop reproducing after they have
fixed the injured area. But sometimes, a cell will begin to reproduce itself for no apparent reason. The
"daughter" cells that it produces then form a growth or lump. This is cancer. Often, a cell from this lump, or tumor,
spreads to another part of the body and begins reproduction there. These cells are not receptive to
the normal signal by the body to stop reproducing. Eventually, this abnormal tissue interferes with the ability of
the body and its cells, organs, and other structures to perform their appointed functions, and
illness or death results.
It is not known exactly why some cells will behave in this way.
It is known that certain things will increase the chances of
specific kinds of cancer. Environmental factors and diet are widely believed
to be two of the major causes of the disease cancer. People exposed to cigarette smoke have significantly higher
rates of lung cancer than other people. Regular alcohol consumption increases the risk of mouth and
throat cancers. A diet that is high in fat and low in fiber is associated with a greater risk of colorectal
cancer, and is a factor in breast and prostate cancer as well. Many experts believe that what these apparently different risk factors have in common is that they increase the body's exposure to free radicals. They theorize that damage from free radicals is an important factor in causing the uncontrolled
cellular growth that is characteristic of cancer. Free radicals can be
controlled by grape seed extract, pomegranate seed extracts, and others. Others believe that factors such as
cigarette smoking and poor dietary habits increase the risk of cancer because
these weaken the immune system. In addition
to blaming diet and environmental pollutants, many experts state a
link between cancer and stress. Poor diet and nutrition may be
indicated by symptoms of anemia which may
often be
an early warning sign of cancer.
In the USA, each minute a person will die from cancer. Over 3 million
Americans have cancer, and 1 out of 3 will eventually die of some form of this disease. There are
well over 100 different forms of cancer. They have different causes, cause different symptoms, and vary in the speed at which they
spread. However, most types of cancer fall into these categories:
1. Carcinomas affect the skin, mucous membranes, glands, and internal organs
2. Leukemias are cancers of blood-forming tissues
3. Lymphomas affect the lymphatic system.
4. Sarcomas affect muscles, connective tissue, and
bones
A nutritional program and lifestyle changes are critical for persons who have been diagnosed with cancer, as well as for those who wish to enhance their chances of avoiding this disease.

"The person who takes medicine must recover twice,
once from the disease and once from the medicine." William Osler, M.D.
"The cause of most disease is in the poisonous drugs
physicians superstitiously give in order to effect a cure." Charles E. Page, M.D.
"If all the medicine in the world were thrown into the sea,
it would be bad for the fish and good for humanity."
O.W. Holmes, (Prof. of Medicine Harvard University)
"Every drug increases and complicates the patients
condition." Robert Henderson, M.D.
"In sickness the body is already loaded with impurities. By
taking drug - medicines more impurities are added, thereby the case is further
embarrassed and harder to cure." Elmer Lee, M.D.
"The necessity of teaching mankind not to take drugs and
medicines, is a duty incumbent upon all who know their uncertainty and injurious
effects; and the time is not far distant when the drug system will be abandoned." Charles Armbruster, M.D.

You would not think of exposing yourself to an Atomic Bomb fallout or
excessive X-rays. But not getting enough vitamins and minerals is just as
dangerous. Cells in your body not getting their vitamins and minerals suffer
both DNA and mitochondrial damage. These cells under a microscope look like they
have been hit with radiation. This type of damage may cause you to age faster
and can lead to Cancer
and other degenerative diseases like Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and
others.
