Cancer Quick Facts

   Nitric Oxide better known as  NO,  when we eat a protein rich diet that includes  red meat  in  moderation,  fish, poultry,  pork,  soy or tofu,  eggs      and nuts. The digestive enzymes in the intestines break the protein down  into their simplest form. Which  are the many compounds that are called amino acids,  whereas, their are 20 (10 essential and 10 non essential) the two most important are critical.

   L-arginine  being  one  of  them  and  L-citrulline  the other,  after which         L-arginine is consumed in the food you eat;  an  enzymatic reaction occurs that converts L- arginine to NO. As the levels of L-arginine increases in the body… so does your production of  NO  which in turn has a dramatic effect   on chronic disease.     How About Another One – Two Punch!!!!

    Nitric Oxide is the body’s natural wonder, by saying “yes” to NO and the recommendation for the amino acids. L-arginine and L-citrulline combined with four antioxidants(vitamin C and E also folic acid  and alpha lipoic acid) that can combat  the  disease promoting process called oxidation.

    Research shows that  if  you  only  take  L-arginine… you  will  not  receive   the maximum benefit.  Findings  conclude that only by adding it’s synergistic partner L-citrulline your ability to boost  NO  production is greatly enhanced over the effects of L-arginine alone. Therefore when you enhance L- arginine then  L-citrulline  enhances  blood  flow  and  it improves  the  activity  of  the endothelical cell while reducing oxidative damage to the endothelical cell.

    Nitric Oxide is used by the immune system to starve off infectious disease, bacteria,  viruses,  and  parasites while controlling the proliferation of certain types of cancerous cells.  NO  is  a  powerful antioxidant deactivating so called  “oxygen free radicals”  in the body that can  also contribute to America’s four leading killers: cancer’ diabetes, heart disease and stroke.

    Also white blood cells use nitric oxide,  not only,  to  kill infectious agents, such as,  bacteria,  fungi,  and  parasites,  but also,  to defend the host against tumors.  Scientist  are  currently testing  whether  NO  can be used to stop the growth of tumors since NO can induce programmed cell death “Apotosis.”

    Nitric Oxide known by chemist…  it’s  produced  by the body specifically to help keep arteries and veins free of plaque. That cause stroke and to maintain normal blood pressures  by  relaxing arteries,  thereby,  regulating the rate of blood flow  and  preventing coronaries. While  keeping  the  endothelical cells well nourished and blood vessels relaxed.

    This can  lower blood pressure and cholestrol, discourage the formation of plaques, while ensuring blood flow and  reduction of inflammation which can lead to atherosclerosis. While the most common site for blood clots are in the carotid arteries…. which is located on either side of the neck.  When this does happen the clots can interfere with normal blood flow  and  deprive the brain cells of oxygen.

    The outcome  can  be  free radicals from oxidation,  brain damage,  mental impairment,  dementia,  disability  or  death.  Nitric  Oxide  can  be  crucial  to memory function  because  the brain uses  it  to  store  and  retrieve long term memory, as well as, to transport information. Researchers currently looking into the major role  NO  plays in the prevention of Alzheimers as well.

    When L -arginine is synergized with L-citrulline, nitric oxide is increased.  When  NO  is increased,  the  L-arginine  present  in the cells is converted into more   NO,  while  creating  the  by  product L-citrulline  in  the  process.  This by product, along with any additional L-citrulline can be converted back into more L-arginine which is converted into more NO.

    Thereby,   this  never  ending  “turbo – charging effect”  of  L-citrulline  to     L-arginine recycling pathway can substantially increase NO into never ending production.  So  with  these high levels of nitric oxide  maybe able  to slow cell proliferations… keeping cancer in holding patterns long enough for the bodys own immune system to prepare and destroy the malignant cells on there own.

     A  chronic  surge  of  oxidative stress  appears  to  play  a  big role  in  the promotion  of  cancer  perhaps  because  of  the  damage to DNA  caused by       free radicals. Whereas, there might lie a belief that a powerful antioxidant can derail cancers growth in it’s track naturally as in many types of cancer and keeping it at bay.

     HOT  TIP  # 14  for  July: { Is  To  Watch  These  Videos!!!!}

    Chemotherapy  drugs  are  by  their  own  omission  extremely  toxic  and typically work  against  your  body’s  natural ability  to  ward  off  cancer while  e.g.  destroying host immunity  instead  of supporting it.   One  of  the  biggest drawbacks of chemotherapy  is  the  fact  it  destroys healthy cells throughout your body right along with cancerous cells.   Targeted Therapy!!!!

    Another  devastating  side effect  that often leads to accelerated death and it’s  non –  healing  factor.   Is   the   manner  in  which  it  actually  supports  the  more chemo resistant and malignment cells subpopulation  within  the tumors e.g. cancer stem cells….  both killing  the  more  benign cells  and/or  senescent cells within the tumor that keeps it slow growing  in-check  and harmless.      Does Easy Pha-max Pro-Can Really Work????

    As a result this unleashes a more aggressive…. treatment resistant type of cancer to wreak havoc on the body.  A  handful  of  natural  compounds  have been  discovered  which  exhibit  an  effect  called  “selective cytotoxicity” and this type of cancer treatment is intelligent,  targeted and will not result in the death of the patient from collateral damage….  MIGHT be Wrong!!!!

   Bromelain…. an  enzyme  extracted  from  “pineapple stem”  that  has  been shown to break down protein…. maybe  as  an  alternative in people who don’t make enough digestive enzymes.  Bromelain  in  some studies  has been found far superior  to  the chemo agent 5 – fluroauracil in treating cancer in animals without causing the harmful side effects.

   Eggplant Extract…. Solasodine rhamnosyle glycoside…. being a fancy name (that I have a hard time pronouncing)  from plants  of the “Solanaceae family” such  as  eggplant, tomato,  potato  and  bell peppers.  Also  impact,  only  the   cancerous cells  leaving  normal cells alone  (eggplant extract creams appear to be particularly adapt in treating skin cancer.)    Dr. William E. Cham is a   leading researcher in this area.

    The  use of enzymes  to  treat cancer has it’s roots dated all the way back to  1911 with John Beard’s book  “The Enzyme Treatment of Cancer.”  John Beard believed cancer was  a result of  diminished pancreatic enzymes that impaired your immune response. Dr. Nicholas Gonzalez in New York City, N.Y. has also done alot of work with enzymes therapy and cancer.

    HOT  TIP  #12  for  July: For the prevention of cancer fortunately you gain many  enzymes  from  the  foods  you  consume  and  in particularly raw foods. Thereby, the more raw foods you consume…. this lowers  the  burden on your body  to  produce  the  enzymes,  not only,  for digestion,  but also,  everything  your body needs to keep it functioning properly.

   The worst cause of your worst health issues… like heart  and  circulation problems… memory loss… weaken immunity… stiff joints… and premature aging could stem from a serious condition  called  acid  overload.  This acid overload can also lead to irregular digestion and bowel movements,  while causing you to be more fatiqued.

   Just as acid can ruin a car battery  and  burn your skin with prolonged exposure on your skin… increased acidity in your cells and tissues can eat away at the lining of your arteries.  While increasing your chances of both brain and cardio vascular disease.

  High levels of acidity can also erode cartilage  and  cause inflamed joints      while damaging skin cells  which  can  contribute  to  premature wrinkling and aging issues.  Therefore,  your  body  works  at it best when you’re in a state of alkaline and acid balance.

   To  prevent acidity  you should eat acid forming foods  only in moderation  (high –  fat meals,   processed foods,   fried foods,   refined sugar,  pasteurized dairy  and white four products.) The pH “potential of hydrogen,” is measured  in relativity of acidity  and  alkalinity  with  7  to 7.5  being  perfectly  balanced and  0 to 7  indicating acidity and from  7  to  14 alkalinity.

    HOT TIP  #11  for  July:   While adding more nutritious alkaline foods like      fruits,  veggies,  whole grains  and  high fiber foods.  If  you follow the 80/20 rule where you consume 80 percent alkaline foods and only 20 percent acid  forming foods  you  would  see a difference  in  your pH balance  in  no  time. Limit soda pop…. because  of  the  empty  calorie  content  and  the negatives     it has on your pH balance. 

     The underlying affect of shedding obesity might be converting food and drink into energy.  In  a  biochemical process  called  thermic effect of food we  derived  this  energy  through  a  process  that is called metabolism. The autonomic  systems  of  the  body,  such as  breathing,  cell  repairing, blood circulation and hormone adjustment that requires energy to function even when the body is at rest.

     While increasing physical activity  is  the  best way  to  speed up – body metabolism, there are properties in various occasions that can also assist,  example:  Dr. Gary Gendron  reports  that  key  enzymes  in  your  body  are affected by omega 3 fatty acids.  While  burning  fat  (just 300 milligrams of this healthy fatty acid increases metabolism by upward 400 calories @ day.

    Protein has a higher thermic effect on the body which means it requires   more energy to process.   While  forms  of  lean – low  fat  protein  should  be eaten every  4 to 5  hours to ensure metabolism remains engaged.   This also insures your metabolism doesn’t go into a fat storing phase while providing the body with the energy needed to survive.

     Breakfast a great time to eat a high fiber meal because it will boost your metabolism after a long period of reduced activity.  Because  high fiber  food  requires  higher amounts of digestion it will automatically boost metabolism by using up more energy.  In addition to fiber…. certain fruits like the pectin in apples help regulate blood sugar.

     Also dieters whom consume 1200 mg of calcium daily during the study of  lost  double  the  weight as subjects  with  insufficient  calcium  intake.  While having one spicey meal per day,  may  help  to  increase  your  metabolic  rate  25 percent for three hours after eating that type of meal.

      Furthermore green tea – caffeine mixtures contain large amounts of tea  catechins, such as EGCG that inhibits enzymes that degrade norepinephrine. This process speeds up  the centralized nervous system  and  brain activities, increasing physical activity levels and ultimately fat burning potential.

     A study that was published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, showed that a green tea – caffeine combination may stimulate both thermo- gensis and fat oxidation. Increased fat oxidation results when more oxygen   is  being  delivered  to  muscles  for  physical  activity  and  subsequent  fat burning (never use an energy drink as a source for caffeine…. because the sugar and calorie content cancels out the metabolic increase.)

        HOT  TIP  #9  for  July:   Look  at  it  like  this  a  negative caloric burn is putting in less then you take out.   However,  when you put a deposit into the food bank make  it  a  worth  while  nutritious  investment…. so  you  get great return on your investment while having greater long term health.
