A Prototypical Cancer Personality

    In  his  book:  When  The  Body  Says   NODr.  Gabor  Mate  M.D.surmises  it this way.  There are three distinct types of  people in this    world,  Type  A  Individuals  are  seen  as  robust,  angry,  tense,  fast, aggressive, in – control  and  more  prone  to  heart disease. Whereas        Type B represent the balanced, moderate human being who can  feel          and express emotions without being driven and losing themselves in uncontrolled emotional out burst.

     On  The  Other Hand:  Type C  individuals  may  resemble Type B,          since  both  may  appear easy going  and  pleasant,  however,  Type B         will easily express anger,   fear,  sadness and other emotions.  Type C individuals suppresses  or  regress negatively charged emotion while struggling to maintain a strong  and happy  façade. 

     Cancer patients….  to a significantly statistically degree are more        likely to demonstrate  the  following traits: the element of  denial and repression of  anger and of  other negative emotions, and the external appearance of  a “nice”  or  “good”  person  with a suppression of  any reaction that might offend another person thereby avoiding conflict.

      While  it  can not  be  said  any  personality  trait  causes  cancer,       certain personality features definitely increases the risk because they generate physiological stress. Repression with the inability to say  No       and a lack  of  awareness  of  one’s anger,  makes  it  much more likely          for  a  person  to  find themselves in a situation  where there emotions           are ignored,  unexpressed  and gentleness exploited.

      Those situations  are stress inducing,  whether  or  not the person               is conscious  of  being  stressed.  Repeated  and  multiplied  throughout         the  years  of  disrupting human homeostatis  and  the immune system.          It  is  this  stress:  that undermines a body’s physiological balance and  immune defenses  predisposing the person  to this dis-ease, or thereby reducing the resistance to it.

    Physiological  stress,  is  the  link  between  personality traits  and                 dis-ease. Certain traits — otherwise known as coping styles — magnify         the  “risk  of  illness”  by increasing the likelihood of  “chronic  stress.”     Common to them all — is a diminished capacity  for any,  all emotional communication. Emotional experiences are translated into potentially damaging biological events.

     When human beings  are prevented   from  learning how to express        their true  feelings  effectively.  That  learning occurs — or  fails to occur   during childhood.  Thereby,  the way in which people are  force to grow        up will shape their relationships with their own body, psyche and other people.  This is an important distinction  between  an inherent response      and characteristic to the environment that ensures our survival.

      As people grow older,  others will resent them  and that person will             be disliked   for  what  is a desperate response  for  emotional deprivation.    When ask the  following question: as a child, you  felt sad, upset or angry; was there anyone you could talk to ~ even when what triggered it was the cause of  that  negative emotion?  Dr.  Mate stated,  in the quarter century    of  practicing medicine  he never heard anyone with cancer respond with  “yes”  to  that  question.

What Really Causes Cancer????

Posted in Thought Provoking | Leave a comment

It’s Important To Be Just You

   

  The  information  in  this  blog post  originates  from  the  Book,                    When The Body Says NO  by Dr. Gabor Mate, M.D.  Medicine today               has  yet  to  assimilate  an important distinction  and a lesson  from  Einstein’s Theory 0f  Relativity.  That being a position the observer             will influence the phenomenon being observed and affect the result                  of  the observation.

   With  that  all said,  the  more ‘specialized  doctors’  become  today,                   the more they know about just a certain body part  0r 0rgan;  the less        they will tend  to understand the human being  in  whom  that part or     organ resides.  They will be least apt to answer a question  for  fear of reprisal or  fear of  being wrong.

     Dualism…. is when we as individuals has a hard time  saying  NO, physiologically emotions  are  in  themselves  electrical,  chemical and hormonal discharges  of  the human nervous system.  Emotions affect, influence and are influenced by ~ the functioning of our major organs.       The integrity 0f  our  immune defenses,  when emotions  are repressed       this inhibitions disarms the body defenses against illness. 

    In  numerous  studies  0f  cancer….  the most consistently identified           risk  factor is the inability to express emotions, particularly the  feeling associated with anger.  The repression of  anger is not an abstract trait         0f emotion  that leads to dis-ease  and  it is a major risk  factor  because         it increases physiological stress on the organism. Therefore, the person    who doesn’t  feel  or express  “negative”  emotion will  feel isolated even around  friends because their real self is being hidden.

     The sense of  hopelessness  follows ‘the chronic inability’  to be true             to oneself  in the deepest levels  and that hopelessness  leads to  feelings          0f  helplessness.  Since nothing  one can do  is perceived  as making any   difference  and  you  feel  subordinate,  therefore, cancer is apt to occur        in  those  with  a  helplessness  ~  prone personality  and  that  sense  0f helpless  frustration.

    This  influence  0f  that  psychological  risk  factor  can  be  seen  in         about 80% 0f  all cancer, is so  poignantly illustrated in the life history          0f  Gilda Radner.  Gilda Radner’s  maternal aunt and two cousins died           0f  ovarian  cancer,  and  her  mother  successfully  treated  for  breast  cancer.  While  for most women  whom  develop ovarian cancer  about            8 percent carry one 0f  the genetic mutations known to increase risk.

    Depending  upon  which  strand 0f  DNA involved  those  with  this mutation  in  one  gene,   could  have  a  63  percent  risk 0f  developing cancer by age seventy  and  for those women  whose mutation is in the    other  gene;   have  a  27  percent  risk  of  ovarian  cancer  by  the  age seventy  five.  Also  women without the mutation but who have a  first   degree relative  (mother, sister or daughter)  with ovarian cancer the       risk is only  5 percent.

     In the last paragraph  we see that genes in themselves  do not tell              the whole story. Gilda Radner  sparkled with manic energy  and a zest        for  experience,  however,  carried  psychological burdens 0f  a  highly stressful and self – negating life. This slim star of  Saturday Night Live        was bulimic and more than likely that affected her hormonal balance.      With  a relationship  with her mother  intensely negative,  marked  by competition  for her  father’s attention.

     All  her  adult life Gilda,  a self  confessed workaholic who let work,       stress  and  pressure dictate her lifestyle, who out of  sheer desperation,  promiscuously  sought  love,  acceptance  until  she  met,  and  married    Gene Wilder.  To  a  great extent  left  the men in her life  controlled  her  every  move by making herself  into  something  they  preferred.  Never  truly being herself  she  found  it impossible to speak emotional truth.

      Gilda  was  always  more  interested  in  satisfying  others  needs            more than with her own need to be herself.  While on a youthful trip to    Paris,  France  threw  herself  out  into  traffic  in  a  dramatic  suicidal  gesture  and was surprised that  a  friend  saved  her.  Only close to her    death did Gilda realize you can’t be all things to all people & must take         care of  yourself  before you can take care of  others.     Gilda’s Club

What Causes Pediatric Cancer

  Within Solitarius:  My Main Goal has been to always supply the visitant with the best information that is on the world wide web. Regardless and in  the top tag Childhood Cancer  includes  links  for some of  the best  facilities in the United States.  Along with other links  where  you  can grab n’ go  the  information in a hurry?

     Pediatric  cancer  cases  are  much  different  from  adult  cancer cases, whereas  they  develop  much  faster than cancer in adults, and  for decades medical researchers have not been able to identify “why” around the globe. Recently  however,  researchers  at  the  Center  for  Childhood  Cancer  and Blood  Disease  at  the  Nationwide  Children’s Hospital  in  Columbus  Ohio have  finally  pin pointed  the  reason “why”  pediatric  cancer  progress  so quickly.

  The Key according to Dr. Changxian Shen, PhD., whom is senior research associate  at the center,  and  Dr.  Peter Houghton PhD.,  who  is  the  centers director.  Lies in the checkpoints  that  encourage cells  to  repair themselves before they replicate their DNA.  Many researchers believe cancer cells may flourish when these checkpoints  are  skipped  or  inhibited,  as the mutated cells survive and rapidly reproduce.

   Prior studies had shown that the DNA damage check point protein ATM,  was  ‘very low’  in most pediatric solid tumor cases. There are many different issues contributing  to this phenomenon,   first  and  foremost,  are  the  over  production  of  microRNAs  reducing  the  amount  of  ATM  that  is  created, which leads to cells circumventing  the damage check point  when this does happen. Cells that have mutated DNA  are able to reproduce  without going through the repair process that ATM is suppose to help SPARK.

    Indeed Dr. Houghton, also turns his attention to the way in which this discovery  can  assist  in  creating more effective treatment options.  These results help us to understand,  not only,  the early genesis of  some tumors, but also,  “why”  so many solid tumors are sensitive to drugs  and ionizing radiation that damage DNA.

    This also help explain  “why”  in children not cured by these treatments. resistance to therapy arises ~ the rapid rate of mutation due to suppression of  ATM.  Potentially  the  rate  of  mutations that lead  to drug  or  radiation resistance  could  be  slowed  by  targeting  the  mTOR  pathway  [ which is responsible  for  the over production  of  microRNAs ]. Like me…. you don’t have  to  fully understand this research,  however,  The Children’s Hospital in Columbus,  Ohio   would be a great starting point in your search  for the answer  for cancer.

     Also  Children’s Cancer Recovery Foundation  supports  families  via numerous programs  that are aimed  at helping parents.  Keep a roof  over their children’s  heads  despite  surmounting  medical  bills  and  providing gift’s to kids who are going through the stressful process of   fighting their   type of  cancer.  Ultimately,  the goal  of  the program  is to create the least stressful environment,  so kids  and  love ones  can  focus  their  energy  on healing  and overcoming the threat cancer poses.

Intro to the Immune System

    How the immune system works?   for many of us,  the immune system seems a bit of  a mystery.  The immune system is large  and complex while performing  a  wide variety of  functions:   scientist  and  researchers alike constantly study the immune system. While these researchers  are always Making  NEW discoveries, the better everybody understands this complex and elaborate response  of  the human body,  the better prepared  you are    at preventing disease.

     Did you know  that our skin is part of  the immune system and is also sometimes  referred  to  as  another organ.  Our  skin  is  our  first  line  of defense,  acting as a  ‘physical barrier,’  to all the things in the world that can invade our bodies  and  make us sick,  such  as  bacteria  and  viruses. Also,  the white blood cells  are another vital part of  our immune system,    as well as,  a  lesser known  part ~ the hormones (like vitamin D) and the cytokines  that  helps  the cells communicate  and  initiate  a  response  to   any  foreign invaders into the body.

   Therefore,  when  your immune system  isn’t balanced,  not properly functioning is often when health problems arises.  Inflammation is also         a component of  the immune system  considered a response  to stress  or trauma.  When you experience inflammation,  it’s  an indicator that the immune system  is doing it’s job;  by getting white blood cells activated. Initially,  inflammation  is a good thing,  however,  the longer it persist,         it can be associated with chronic disease. 

    Also,  Your  health  can  affect  your immune system  and  vice versa, including the amount  and  type of  medications we may take  for minor        or  major health conditions.   For example:  it’s important to keep your immune system going strong, not only,  before diseases like cancer has        it’s chance of  doing it’s ravage to your body,  but also,  after chemo has  been administered…. it’s important to build your immune system back again  to withstand  the onslaught of  carcinogens  that was introduced     into your body.

     Different  aspects  of  our daily  lifestyle  should  be considered  and                can influence the immune system,  including diet,  stress levels  and also physical activities.  Therefore,  it’s  important  to  avoid ’empty calories’ limit  sugar,  salt,   fats  and  alcohol.   While  getting plenty of  sunshine          in  mid  day,   with exercise,  to  help  maintain  healthy  stress  patterns     and cholesterol levels, upping your energy and ramping up metabolism.

    Detailing healthy stress patterns:  one  must  consider  the  adaptive   stress response  that  helps  the body adapt  to  the  stress  it  encounters. Something  our ancestors adaptive to well,  due to the lack of  processed     foods  in their diets.  Twenty  first century lifestyle takes  and drives the  adaptive stress response toward over reactive inflammation, while also being over weight with poor health  and  premature aging.

    Actually scientist believe….  that an excessive laundry list might be  needed  to  prevent a chronic,  low level,   full body inflammation that is contributing  to the aging process  by  eroding cell’s ability  to maintain themselves.  Chronic inflammation, thereby,  causes cells in our body to grow old before their time. Therefore, the key to success is to trigger the adaptive stress response with the right type and number of  calories.

    With certain bioactive compounds (polyphenols),  while adding  fiber, correcting  the  good – to – bad  fat  ratio and restricting calories that can alter gene expression  and reduce the biomarkers of  inflammation, aging and  disease.  Between 50 – and – 75 million Americans have the metabolic syndrome X defined by excessive abdominal obesity, high triglycerides or cholesterol, elevated blood pressure and abnormal insulin/glucose level.

     Cancer  for a long time was in a category of  it’s own,  as  far  back  as         the  late 19th century,  scientist  noticed  inflammation  in  the presence of  certain cancers.  While believing that inflammation turn pre – malignant cells into malignancy.  Scientist  suspect  the  tumor  essentially  borrows  the  body’s  own  inflammatory process  to  aid  and  a bet  this  transition, found  that  mice  without  the  ability  to  engineer  the  ability  to  process a particular inflammatory messenger called tumor necrosis  factor alpha (TNF-a), because it kills cancer cells (never developed cancer.) 

   TNF-a is an inflammatory messenger made by macrophages, a type of     white blood cell  that’s quite prevalent in  fat tissue.  In  people  whom are lean, macrophages make up only  5 to 10 percent of  fat tissue,  while they account  for up to 60 percent of  all cells in the  fat deposits of  people who are over weight or obese.

     One study  found  that  compared  to  those of  normal  weight,  those      who are obese release more than seven times  as much TNF-a   from their    fat  tissue.  TNF-a  is  associated  with  insulin  resistance,  diabetes,  also hardening  of  the  arteries, congestive  heart  failure  and  some  cancers. Biomarkers of  aging are things that make us  feel old…. one way to  fight this is through  flight  and by consuming a balanced diet of  nutritionally advanced  foods  with  moderate exercise  while  staying   positive  about  your outlook on life.

Outten The Fire Within

   This blogs  shouldn’t take away  anything  from  the blog post  within      blog roll.  In  September,  I’ll attempt to bring  forth the information that        I  consider  redeemable  providing  cause n’ effects  and  how  it  prevents cancer  in  the  first place.  However, it’s  also  important  to  realize  that   you  will have to do your own research….  to fully understand the jest 0f  each blog post  which should take you a half  hour to read, checkout and  bookmark the links you  find interesting.

    What  does  a  stubbed toe  or  splinter  in  a  finger  have  to  do  with  Alzheimer or succumbing to cancer. As scientist scurry and delve deeper, they’re  starting  to  see a link to an age old  “defense mechanism”  called, chronic inflammation  ~  the same process that turns the tissue around a splinter ‘RED’ and causes swelling in an injured toe.  So with this really being the case can inflammation cause cancer?

     While causing a injury to  fend – off  bacteria, viruses, parasites and infections.  The moment a potentially deadly microbe slips into the body, inflammation  marshalls,  an attack  that lays waste to both invader and   any damage tissue it may have infected.  Every once in a while, however, this  feverish production  doesn’t  shut down  and  inflammation becomes chronic.

    When this happens the body turns on itself  and  in  recent years  this chronic  inflammation  has  become  a  ‘HOT’  topic  amongst  researchers. Research  shows  that  chronic  inflammation  does  harm  in  many  ways;      it can destabilize cholesterol deposits in the coronary arteries, potentially leading  to  strokes  or  heart attacks.  Also  it  chews up –  nerve cells in the brain  of  Alzheimer patients  and  fosters  proliferation  of  abnormal cells turning them cancerous.

    To  better  understand,   it helps to know  a  little  about  what  happens when the body is subjected  to  trauma  or  injury.  As soon  as that splinter slices  it’s  path  into  your  finger,  sentinel cells  stationed  throughout  the body alerts the immune system;  of the presence of  bacteria that may have come along  for the ride.  Some  of  those  cells,  called  mast cells,  release a  chemical called  “histamine”   make nearby capillaries leaky.

    This allows small amounts of  plasma  to  pour out,  slowing  down  the   invading bacteria  and  prepares other  faraway immune defenders to rush  to the scene of  the injury.  Mean  while  another  group  of  sentinels,  called macrophages,  begin a counter attack  and  releases cytokines which signal for  reinforcements.   Soon,  wave –  after – wave  of  immune cells  flood  the site,  destroying pathogens  and  damage tissue alike.

    NOT  long ago,  doctors thought heart attacks were results of  a molecule called LDL,  the  so called, ‘bad cholesterol’  providing the raw material  for fatty deposits; that slowly build up inside major coronary arteries causing blockage. So clearly, anyone with high LDL cholesterol levels where prone and  at a greater risk  for developing heart disease.  Although,  nearly half  of  all heart attacks occur in people with normal levels.

    In  the  early  1990’s,   Dr.  Paul  Ridker,  a  Cardiologist  Specialist  at Brigham  and  Women’s  Hospital,  in  Boston,  Massachusetts  discovered  an  inflammatory  reaction  was  responsible  for these  bursting  plaques.    To  test  his  theory,  Dr.  Ridker  needed  a blood test  that could serve as a  marker  for chronic inflammationHe settled on C- Reactive Protein CRP,     a molecule produced by the liver in response to inflammation.

    Inflammation harms the heart  when  levels of  CRP  reach  3mg/L  or  higher;  these amounts triple the rate of  heart disease.  By contrast  folks with extremely low levels of  CRP,   less  than  o.5mg/L  rarely  have heart attacks. Dr. Ridker  also says, “cholesterol deposits, high blood pressure, smoking will all contribute to the development of  under lying plaques.”

    What inflammation seems to contribute is in the propensity of  those    plaques to rupture and cause heart attacks.  At the very least,  high CRP levels  might  tip  the  balance  in  favor  of  aspirins  and  statins  known  to lower inflammation.  As well as  metaformim  that works to dampen inflammatory response in diabetics.

   Thereby, what researchers  found to hold true about diabetics are a complex  inter-play  amongst inflammation, insulin  and  fat. Either in       the  diet  or – in  large  folds  under the skin ( fat cells  behave  a lot like  immune cells  ~  spewing  out  inflammatory cytokines  particularly as       you gain weight when you age.)

     Dr. Steven Shoelsona researcher at the Joslin Diabetic Center in    Boston has bred a strain of  mice whose  fat cells are super charged  in inflammation  factories. These mice than became less efficient at using  insulin  and  go onto develop diabetes (thereby, inciting inflammation  producing diabetes.)   Also,  back in the 1860’s,  renowned pathologist  Rudolph Virchow,  speculated  that cancerous tumors a rise at the site           of  chronic inflammation.

     Now a days researchers are exploring the possibilities mutations            and inflammation,  are  a  mutually  reinforcing  process  that  is  left  unchecked  can  transform  normal cells  into  tumor cells.  Therefore,       how might this happen?   Some of the most potent weapons produced            by  macrophages  and  inflammatory cells are the so  –  called  oxygen         free radicals.  These molecules devastate any thing that crosses their        path….  particularly DNA.

    It’s a glancing blow:  damaging…. but  doesn’t  destroy a cell that       could lead to a ‘genetic mutation’  that allows it to keep growing and dividing.  To  the  immune system,  this  abnormal growth looks very      much like a wound that needs to be fixed and when the immune cells           get called in,  they bring with it growth  factor,  that says heal, heal,         heal.  However, with damage DNA involved it might cause it to grow          and divide abnormally while transforming into cancer.

    Another interesting aspect of  chronic inflammation  is that other researchers have discovered,  glial cells  can  produce inflammatory cytokines;  that call additional immune cells into action.  These glial          cells, sole purpose is to nourish  and  communicate with the neurons              of  the brain.  Thereby,  when you get a chronic activation which is a  process seemingly out of control…. it  than  does  result  in  a chronic inflammatory state.

     Therefore,  the best approach  to  reducing chronic inflammation               and  dampen  the  damage that’s done.  Is through losing weight with    regular exercise  ( 30 minutes  a  day  most days  of  the  week.)  While      fruits,  vegetables and  fish are great choices in a proper ratio of  fats, protein and carbohydrates that disable  ‘free radicals’ through intake            of antioxidants in a macrobiotic diet  (that lowers inflammation  and  maintains  a proper pH Balance  in your body.)

     Also  in  1996,   the  Journal  of  the  American Medical Association published the results 0f   a multi – centered,  double blind, randomized placebo controlled cancer trial base  on  20ug/day selenium or placebo          to 1,312  patients over a mean period of  4.5 years.  The  study  reported          a  50%  decrease in total cancer incidence,  as well as,  a  63% reduction         in  prostate  cancer,  58%  reduction  in  colorectal  cancer  and   a  48%  reduction in lung cancer.

     Selenium  has  so  many  anti — cancer actions  that it is difficult to establish  which  ones  are  predominant.  Selenium  also  helps  reinforce  glutathione levels  (considered the Master Antioxidant),  oxidative stress, DNA methylation,   DNA repair,  also  inflammation,   apoptosis,  and  cell  proliferation, carcinogen metabolism, hormone production, angiogenesis   and  immune  function.  Selenium deficiencies  (like  folic acid)  can  result   in decreased DNA methylation, therefore, increased DNA damage and mutation.

    Selenium  also promotes  the activity  0f  P53 protein,  which is 0ften    called, “the guardian 0f  the genome.”  Well over half 0f  all cancers have defective P53 protein. When  DNA is damaged, P53 either stimulates DNA repair  or  causes cells to self  destruct  (apoptosis)  if  the DNA damage is irreparable.  The  thioredoxin  reductase  system  promote  P53 induction      0f  DNA repair enzymes, therefore, cells exposed to selenomethionie have shown  a  3 — fold  increase  in P53 activity.

Feeling Better ~ Feels Good

    Before leaving August  and entering into  my September Blog Post        which will include information  about how to avoid cancer  and  more    information about options to cancer treatment while tying into it’s all together. Let’s add a little about  immune response  and  the important aspects  that  keeps  it  strong  to  help  free  it  from  stress  and disease.        On the whole  your immune system  does  a  remarkable  job defending       you against disease causing microorganisms.

    However,  that doesn’t mean the effects of  lifestyle on the immune    system aren’t intriquing and shouldn’t be studied. Quite the contrary, researchers are exploring the  effects  of  diet,  exercise,  psychological  stress,  age  and  other  factors on the immune response.  Be skeptical:   many products on store shelves  claim to boost  or  support immunity, however, concepts of  boosting immunity actually makes little sense.

     Scientifically,  attempting  to boost cells  of  the immune system is complicated,  because  there  are so many different kinds of  cells in the immune system that respond to so many different microbes in so many different ways.  So which cells should you boost  and to what number?         So far,  scientists do not know that answer!   Researchers are trying to explore the effects of  a variety of  factors —  from the foods we consume        to exercise  and stress on immunity.

    Although what is known is that the aging process somehow leads                 to a reduction of immune response capability. Thereby, which in turn          contribute  to  infections,  inflammatory  diseases  and  cancer.  While      some people age healthier  than others,  no  one  knows  for  sure ‘why’        this happens.  Some scientists believe it correlates  with  a decrease in   T-cells possibly  from atrophy  producing  fewer  T – cells  to  fight  off  infections.

    Yet other researchers are looking at the connection between lack                 of  nutrition and immunity.  A elderly person deficient in some of  the essential vitamins  and  trace minerals  is  considered  micro-nutrient          mal nutritious  and  this  can  be common in the elderly.  Older people          tend  to  eat  less  and  often  have  less variety  in their diet…. while a      typical Standard American Diet (SAD) is disastrous to their health.

    One important question that always arises…. is whether dietary supplements  are  beneficial  to  maintain  a healthy immune system.          The elderly,  should always be open  to  discuss this with a physician          well – versed  in  geriatric  nutrition. There is some evidence various        micro nutrient deficiencies of  zinc, selenium, iron, copper,  folic acid         and vitamin A, B6, C, E  —  will alter immune response.

   So  what  can  you  do?    If  you  suspect  your  diet  doesn’t  provide                you with all your micro nutrient needs. Consult a Certified Nutritional Expert  for  further blood test  (analyst  of  your biochemical make up.)     Also  remember  to  hydratewater ~ water  at  least   four  pints a day      will help your immunity. Stick  to  the  liter – by – lunch  rule  that  will      help  you  reach  that  limit  later by  days  end.  While  holding  the  ice,   water  at room temperature  hydrates  the body better than cold water      and helps build a healthy lymphatic system!!!

I’m Feeling Disconnected

    The hardest  feeling  during life is  riding a bicycle for your health  and       have others tell you I take baby aspirin in place of all that.  My response to      that does  baby  aspirin  limber  your  hips  enough  to  hit  a  golf ball over 300 yards at 50+ years  of  age.  While others  tell you, “I would ride a bike  but the hardest part of that is just starting.”

   As I was told,  it got me thinking about “if ” you think starting is tough,    try  living  with  someone  terminally  ill.   The  thing  I  appreciated  in  the beginning, during  ~  after math is the blessing you gain. The appreciation    of  a  breath…. the  final  breath  taken  in  the  end.  Turning  out  to  be  so precious  and  sadness caused when you see it happen.

   If a person thinks it’s hard starting exercise or that matter do anything, what about the ramification of  that  ‘fatal  last  breath.’  With that moment it will get you  thinking about life,  how important  it is to keep good people around you. What  is  life  anyhow:  life  today  in  America  is the American Dream  that  went  toward  social  injustice,  in a socialistic mainstream of political correctness.

   We’re a people of  a nation grouping up into cliques for safety and also protecting each other’s backside  from  a state  of  duress  with  everybody  gaining weary.  It’s the government  versus  non– government people, it’s married folk versus single people, night  shift  versus  day  shift  in  shops, management  versus  non – management,  while  automated  not  to  work without communication.

    Those  on  the  business  side….  feeling better about themselves with entitlement,  the  halves  versus  the  halve not’s.  Unless  you  have  your health… what’s  wealth  when  you  can’t enjoy your health. Life is short   can  we  have  it  all… all  to  often  people  work  for  the  big  house  and  forget to  ‘spend time’  in the home  (It’s  STRESS.)

    That all told  with the risk of  sounding  preachy,  the  blogs  of  June  through  August….  details  a lot  toward  preventing  end  stage  cancer. What I would  like doing  in this  final  blog  post of  August  is  high light  some of  these blog post  for you…. so  you won’t  have to scroll to see my favorites.

    In  A Digestive Imbalance   states  the  importance  of  probiotics  and fermented  foods, while  Solitarius Is About Prevention:  details the three preventive tactics of Specialist Dr. Samuel Epstein and also the following blog  Is Chemotherapy The Answer  tells  about  a  specific alternative  to   the trials and tribulations of  chemotherapy.

  Than in  A Super Duper Immune System:  it’s content is eliminating the virtues of sugar, salt and  fat while putting vital nutrients into your body. Thereby,  Sacred Geometry  which  is one of  my  favorites  details healing  through the pressure points of  the theta healing system  of  the mind, ‘if ‘ your mind thinks your healthy you will be healthy indeed.

   Functional Medicine:  is about metabolism and to much insulin and in     The Biology  0f  Stress  you  may  want  to  manage  stress levels  through      the  tips  offer up  to  you.  While  Playing  It  Cancer Smart…. tells  of  the certain types of  calories,  biochemical compounds  and  devastation  that  chronic inflammation can play on your body.

   In  the Glycogen Cancer Connection:  which details the Ketogenic Diet         and estrogen imbalance,  which  is  much like elevated testosterone  from  the  major league baseball players  and  Biogenesis  of  Anti-aging  Clinic Investigation (elevated testosterone can cause testicular cancer that has been shown in research to cause cancer…. so why dumb chance it.)

     Also  in  the blog post  How Cancer DevelopsCancer Etiology  which  shows the differing view points of  Doctors,  My Cancer Internet Mentors, Increased Risk of  Prostate Cancer which doesn’t prevent me  from taking Omega  3  Supplements  which shouldn’t displace exercise  from  ramping   up your metabolism to burn excessive cholesterol.

  Therefore  in the blog post:  Know Your Choices  the  content  involved  details how to…. strengthen  a  weaken immune system.  While  also  the blog post  If  Someone Has His Druthers:  the  Ketogenic Diet  has helped others.  All  for the benefit  of   Thinking Outside The Box   for  awareness  and prevention of A Deadly Cancer.  Eating  vegetables and  fruits, while  leaning toward   fermented   foods  and  avoiding sugar,  salt  and   fats.  With the different types of  cancer being exposed in  Preventing Cancer     and Cancer Prevention  (with the archives offering plenty more).

     Why Feel Disconnected:  the objective of  this website is to provide understanding,  stand under  from the serious dis-ease such as cancer. While understanding what’s happening within yourself…. stand under        so the mind heals cancer through awareness. Impossible, may be not –    with  the  meaning  of  life  taking  inspiration,  courage  and  strength           to move  forward  and conquer your inner – self.

    As a human race:  we’re often herded like sheep being programmed        into a way of  thought.  While looking  for something we can believe in     and to love.  If we can’t love it or control it we  fear it  and it’s  fear that brings  ‘the  dis-ease’  under stress….  so  it  ‘can not’  provide  the  body  capacity to heal.  Within Faith Healing:  faith relieves the body of  fear       putting it into a State of  Healing.

John Hughes:  Wicklow,  Ireland.

   The opposite emotion of  Love is Fear  and  Fear Blocks Love n’ Light.   When I think of this I think of my blog post about Cancer Survivors and Becoming A Cancer Survivor.  Each survivorship story shows how each patient keeps a positive mental outlook in perspective of  life. Kris Carr      exemplifies this while battling epitheloid hemagioendothelioma, as she keeps her spirits high  while tapping resources  that  make  the  dis-ease  manageable as she pounds green smoothies.

A Digestive Imbalance

    I’m not all over the place with this website I’m constantly writing         about vitamins,  minerals,  efficient  fatty acids  and  in this blog post probiotics. There is an epidemic of digestive illnesses directly related             to the  foods we eat and the way we live in America.  With  40%  of  us complaining  about  digestive  issues,   accounting   for  104.7  million        visits  a  year  and  according  to the Digestive Disease Clearinghouse         69%  of  all doctor visits are  for digestive disorders.

    Many  people  have  multipled   and  even  mystery  illnesses  that         aren’t  really  helped  with  conventional  therapies.   Chronic  health      issues  typically  begin  in the gut  and  once  you’ve  rebalanced  and      healed your digestive tract, anything is possible.  In addition to acid          and enzymes,  your stomach secretes  various other substances  that         help digest ~ absorb nutrients  from  food consumed in your diet. 

   One  of  these  substances  called  ‘intrinsic  factor,’   binds  to  the     vitamins allowing  it  to  be  absorbed in the intestines.  However, if               your body doesn’t have enough ‘intrinsic  factor’; you won’t be able               to  properly  utilize  vitamins.  This  may  cause  pernicious  anemia           with it’s main symptoms being depression,  brain fog, nerve system disorders, muscle weakness and  fatigue.

    Also I learned the hard way this summer that belly  fat is linked                    to changes in your gut ecosystem,  termed  micro obesity;  bad bugs                 in your intestines produce toxins calledlipopolysaccharides (LPS)        which then triggers inflammation  and  insulin resistance.  As I rode               my bicycle overcoming my issues with health, I couldn’t believe how       much better I  felt  from  May 1st  until presently  from exercise  and       eating right in my elimination diet!

   Your colon and intestines host their own ecosystem of  beneficial      microbes. In fact, you have 3 pounds of  living microbes in your gut            you can’t  afford to lose.  These  microbes  make  essential nutrients            and play a big role in digestion  and  your immune system. Without          these beneficial bacteria  you literally could not survive  and  many        health issues  will  start  ‘inflicting nastiness,’  into  your  life  when              this ecosystem becomes imbalanced.

   Dr.  Eli Metchnikoff  was the  first scientist to discover the useful   properties of  probiotics,  the  friendly bacteria that live in our guts.             His  work on lactobacilli  and  role  in  immunity  proved  probiotics        could  displace  many  disease  causing  organisms  and  reduce  the        toxins generated.  You have 10 times  the bacteria in your gut  that              you have cells in your body   (how digestive enzymes work?)

    You have somewhere between  500 and  1000 type of  bacteria in            your digestive system,   each type  has  hundred  of  different strains.       These microbes function much like an extra digestive organ, and they         act  as  a  major part  of  your immune system.  They  protect  us  from microbial  and  parasitic  diseases,  affect whether  we are  fat  or thin, influence our nutritional status and even control how  fast we age.

   Dr.  Metchnikoff  also coined the term dysbiosis  ( dys-,  which means           “not”  and  symbiosis,  which means  “living together in harmony.”  This Dysbiosis  weakens our ability to protect ourselves from disease  causing microbes.  These harmful microbes  cause chronic health problems  that     can go undiagnosed  or misdiagnosed,  the  healing  power  of  probiotics show specific strains can be effective at healing certain conditions.

   For instance: the probiotic species Saccharomyces boulardi, has been    shown to work at stopping diarrhea. Therefore, knowing antibiotics kill        both harmful  and  friendly bacteria  that your digestive system may be      so  barren  of  beneficial  intestinal  flora.  That  even  the  best  probiotic  supplement  may  not  be  enough  to  restore healthy intestinal balance, therefore,  a nutritional advisor would be very beneficial

    An  Important  Fact:  your  colon  is  home to  trillions  of  beneficial   bacteria.  These  healthy  bacteria  produce  a  wide  range  of  essential  vitamins and other nutrients. These specialized nutrients include many short – chain  fatty acids,  butyric  acid,  valerate  acid,  propionic  acid, acetic  acid  and  many  others.  These  essential  nutrients  support  the health of  your colon cells ( for example: butyric acid  has  been  shown      to stop the growth of  colon cancer and healed inflamed colon tissue.)

   Also  it’s  important  to  remember:  toxins  cause  inflammation  an  a            wide range of  symptoms  throughout your body.  Each year the Average American consumes  14  pounds  of  food additives  which over taxes your liver  which detoxifies harmful substances.  Therefore,  it’s  important  to  keep your gut flora balanced and all systems working in unison. Also for      a good read, Dr. Elizabeth Lipski with 20 years of experience has written Digestion Connection that gives crucial information.

Solitarius is About Prevention

    Prevention being what this website is all about sure does beat the     dismay of trying to find the correct treatment in the maize of travesty.    That  said,   one  of  the  Premier  Cancer  Prevention  Specialist  in  the country  would be Dr.  Samuel Epstein  with his background  from the  University  of  Illinois  is  professor  emeritus  of  Environmental  and  Occupational Medicine, Chairman of the Cancer Prevention Coalition.

     Having published more than 270 peer reviewed articles  and  200       books, being  National Cancer Institute and American Cancer Society, Criminal Indifference  to Cancer Prevention  and  Conflicts of  Interest.       Dr.  Epstein provides his outlook:  the billions of  dollars being spent by taxpayers  and  chartable  groups  on  treatments,  with  the  exclusion  of  preventive awareness having caused cancer rates to skyrocket.

    With this awful and dreadful disease,  NOW affecting nearly one in          two men  and  more than one in three women. Dr. Epstein notes overall cancer mortality rates remain unchanged,  and  that the more spent on cancer ~ the  more cancer occurs.  This  fixation  upon  ‘damage control’ instead of  prevention  is the root cause of  the booming cancer rates  in     the  face of  billions of  dollars spent at eliminating the disease.

     Dr. Epstein states,  prevention tactics  defined  by  N.C.I.  only cover        the value of avoiding smoking tobacco and a bad diet. With nothing ever mentioned  about  safe alternatives  to environmental  and occupational carcinogens.  According to Dr. Epstein,  there are three major categories      of  avoidable causes including: 

1.   Environmental Contaminants in air, water, soil, the workplace.

2.  Carcinogenic ingredients in consumer products  and  particularly pesticides in  food and  food ingredients.

3.  Carcinogenic  prescription  drugs  and  high – dose  diagnostic     radiation,  especially  pediatric  CAT  scans.

Is Chemotherapy The Answer

     I would be last to knock it  because I have known cancer patients whom chemotherapy  has helped.  However,  for  those  you  find  that it has helped you  find ten whom dispise the mention of  the word C H E M O T H E R A P Y and it’s steadfast usage.  My Aunt’s daughter  for one whom is watching her  mother  in terminal condition,  presently after taking the roller coaster ride that is chemotherapy  (I would be reluctant to allow it  flow into my veins) without chemosensitivity testing to determine my biochemical makeup?

     Both chemotherapy  and  radiation can have such  ‘toxic effects’  on  the  human body  that  they sometimes must “stop the treatment,”  before it kills the patient. In the early days of chemotherapy drugs it was noted that some skeptical patients  who  refused  to take chemotherapy  usually lived longer, than those patients treated with chemotherapy. Today like than, the results are still debatable and the cancer patients should beware of their options.

    Radiation therapy… directed toward the bone containing cancer might virtually seem innocuous,  but actually have effects throughout your body. Circulation of blood through areas of ionizing radiation being delivered to bone is able to transport  this radiated blood  to distant sites. Where it can injure  bone  marrow  production of  killer  lymphocytes,  red  blood  cells, macrophages and platelets.

    Conventional  radiation….  to  the  abdomen  and  other  areas  may be followed by permanent injury to the small intestine (diarrhea,  pain)  and  arteriosclerosis of  arteries in any  field of  radiation,  loss of  appetite and nausea can be seen.  Which can sometimes  be alleviated with the usage of  supplements ( for instance:  Ginger Aid tea  for nausea  and  anti oxidants for greater effectiveness of  the chemotherapy preparation.)

    Associate Professor Graeme Morgan of  Australia,  the  lead researcher      in an article titled “The Contribution of  Cytotoxic Chemotherapy of  5 year survival in adult malignancies…. showed that survival was less than 3% in adults with cancer.  Dr. Ralph Moss Ph.D. relates Conventional Therapy is so toxic and dehumanizing that he fears it more than cancer itself.

    Dr. Ralph Moss was employed as a Science Writer  for Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York.  In a 1995 interview,  Dr.  Moss also  related chemotherapy  was effective  in only  2  to 4%  of  all malignancies ( Hodgkins Disease,  Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia,  Childhood Leukemia,  Testicular Cancer and Choriocarcinoma.)

    The National Institute  for Occupational Safety and Health  (NIOSH)  warns  that the powerful drugs,  used in chemotherapy can cause cancer       in employees who handle the drugs.  If continued to long these drugs can     be  fatal, damaging white blood cells,  killing lymphocytes and red blood  cell production.  While the patient vulnerable to infections causing death      in many patients on chemotherapy and radiation.

    The  McGill  Cancer  Center  in Canada,  one  of  the  most  prestigious cancer  treatment  centers  in  the  world.   Did  a  study  of  oncologist  to determined how they would respond to diagnosis of  cancer,  58 out of 64 doctors responded,  that chemotherapy programs  were  unacceptable to them  and  their  families. That survey  was  taken  back  in 1997  and  I’m sure had it be taken again today the results might be improved!?!

     Dr.  James  Howenstein  is  a  board  certified  specialist  in  internal  medicine,  whom  in the last  four  years  used a safe  herbal  therapy  for malignancies….  called  Lifeone.     In  the  Second  Edition  of  his  book:         “A Physicians Guide to National Health Products That Work.”  The book  showcases safe effective alternatives to chemotherapy  and radiation in    the treatment of  malignancies  ~ ~ ~ ~  HEALING CANCER!?!
