PREVENT AND ELIMINATE IT ANYWHERE IN YOUR BODY!

CATEGORIES: 2: Inflammation, 3: Blockage, 4: Excess Toxicity

RECOMMENDED SUPPLEMENT: BETA CAROTENE

[For background on how cancer starts and proceeds inside the body, please read: Blog 3: The Danger of Inflammation. You will also find there a list of foods high in antioxidants that help your body ward off cancer.]

This is the big one, cancer. The ugly 800 pound gorilla squatting in everyone’s psyche, rife with evil potential, making you quake in fear of its looming presence. Will it tap a shoulder one afternoon and upset all your happy plans? Maybe steal your very life? Or that of someone you love? Everyone reading this can think of more than one person this monster has killed, or tried to.

The good news is that you can stop being intimidated by cancer. It can be prevented, and prevention is not difficult. It can also be eliminated once it’s started, up to a point, and of course that’s harder to do. But it can be done without prescriptions, with nothing more than common food supplements. The human body is capable of coming back from situations much worse than you might imagine, if you give it the tools it needs to make repairs. If you’re a crafts person, tailor, or engineer, imagine trying to make repairs to a fireplace, a jacket, or a boiler, without the proper tools. Your body is the same way in that it needs specific tools to make specific repairs.

Antioxidants, in quantities too great to get from food alone, are what your body needs to prevent and repair itself of cancer, because antioxidants prevent free radical growth. All cancers can be treated with the same supplements, and antioxidants will prevent cancer even if you are genetically predisposed to the disease. A predisposition only means that you may need higher doses, not that you can’t be successfully treated with food supplements, and thereby avoid the disease.

THE CASE OF JIM M.

It’s probably not good marketing to use as an example a man who died of his cancer, but Jim would want me to share his story. He used to introduce me at lectures he set up at churches, libraries, and private clubs in San Diego. He always opened like a preacher on the mount, with a frank and sometimes fiery telling of his cancer and how supplements were helping him, admonishing people to take better care of their bodies lest they end up like him. In his own way Jim was a hero. The way he faced life, and more importantly death, made it so. And you didn’t have to be told that Jim was a sick man. One look and you knew.

Jim attended a lecture I gave on nutrition at a local library. He didn’t introduce himself then, but called the next day. He wanted to talk about a friend with cancer who’d been sent home to die, with 40-50 malignant tumors in his body. With only six weeks to live he’d been advised to straighten his affairs and say goodbye to his family.

The friend had been fighting cancer for years and was told he could possibly live for three months, if he let them remove his gall bladder. The friend said no. At that point, Jim said, the man would rather face death than another surgery. He wanted to know if I thought my supplement therapy would help him, because he was desperate to try anything; what did he have to lose? I said yes, and gave him instructions on changing his diet and taking Beta Carotene and other supplements.

Jim and I continued to talk by phone about his friend. He told me the man was improving, but wouldn’t give me any details, not even his name. And he put me off whenever I asked to speak directly to him. Jim said he was a celebrity, very private, and wouldn’t agree to it.

Three months after our first conversation, Jim arranged for me to speak at his church on pot luck Wednesday. It would be the first time we met in person. I entered the lobby of the basement space and immediately heard Jim’s voice. His broad back was to me, but I recognized his baritone. He was just finishing a conversation and I called out to him. He turned around, and I couldn’t breathe for a few seconds.

There was no friend. It was Jim himself who had 40-50 malignant tumors on his body, nine that were visible above his blue oxford shirt, on his neck, face and head. I counted them in those few breathless seconds as time slowed and he crossed to me. It looked like the cancer was taking over his body, consuming him, driving him out of it in a literal sense. It was hard but my eyes never strayed from his. His face blossomed with pleasure when he saw it was me. He hugged me, and without letting go, dragged me across the lobby to a large ornate mirror on the wall. Jim was a 50-year-old businessman and former pro footballer. He decided we were going to the mirror and that’s where we went.

He had wanted to surprise me and he did. He happily pointed to a huge tumor on his temple that looked like a baseball lodged there. Or at least that was what it used to look like, he said. But now, the baseball looked more like a volcano, sunken in the middle. He pulled up his sleeves and pointed to other tumors on his hands and arms that also were shrinking. “In just three months,” he said. “Can you believe it?”

That’s when it hit me. Jim was supposed to be dead weeks ago. At least according to his doctors. But thanks to Beta Carotene he was still walking around.

After dinner Jim told his story to the congregation before I spoke. You could hear his pain echoed in his voice and words. He wasn’t angry because he was the one chosen to suffer, but because he felt that too little was being done to warn and help people. He asked the audience the question many of my subjects ask themselves. “If Lynn’s therapies work so well why isn’t my doctor using them?” And in Jim’s case, “instead of sending me home to die?” Jim’s doctors offered him essentially two horrors: chemotherapy or the knife, in exchange for 6-12 weeks of tortured life. But it’s hard to blame them because it’s all they know.

Jim lived for five years, not six weeks. One day I got a sad phone call from his mother. After she explained, I told her I felt like a failure because Jim had still died of cancer. She said he had anticipated my reaction and asked her to remind me of what he would have faced without my help. That he was grateful for the extra time he had been given. I realized immediately that she was right, and felt small for trying to make it about me.

The sad thing is that this happened almost ten years ago and I hadn’t yet discovered what the large doses could do, and that they were not only necessary but perfectly safe. I had Jim on only 25 softgels three times daily, enough to prolong his life, but not enough to give it back to him for real. If it happened today, I would have him on 50 softgels four to five times daily to destroy cancer already started. At the higher doses, Jim’s cancer wouldn’t have been able to finally kill him.

FIGHTING CANCER WITH BETA CAROTENE

The most important thing to remember about cancer is that before it can be a cancer, it has to be an inflammation. If you can stop the inflammation, you can prevent cancer anywhere in your body. No inflammation, no cancer. And there is no better inflammation fighter available than Beta Carotene.

 ONE DAY A WEEK LIQUID FAST (This is important. We’re fighting cancer here.)► This is an entire 24-hour-plus period. You wake up on fast day, consume only liquids for the whole day, go to sleep, then wake up and break your fast. If you fast Saturday, you will eat nothing from Friday night until Sunday morning. Go easy on your stomach for your first meal.► Pick a day when you are home with no or few responsibilities. Alternate drinking 8 ozs of carrot juice with your juice(s) of choice. Drink the 8 ozs every hour, at the same time each hour, for 12 hours. For instance, if you drink 8 ozs of carrot juice at 8:30 a.m., at 9:30 you might have a tomato juice, then 10:30 carrot juice again. 11:30 maybe pineapple, 12:30 carrot, and so forth. You will continue every hour like this, with your last drink at 8:30 p.m.► You may use heated vegetable or chicken broth in place of any alternate juice, but not the carrot.► Sit down some place quiet and sip the juice or broth. Don’t gulp it down. In addition to the juices and broths, you may drink as much water as you like.► It is imperative that you relax while you’re fasting and not tax yourself in any way. This includes balancing your check book, surfing the web, and reading email. Also, no cleaning, talking on the phone, having friends over, or even leaving the house. Nothing that saps your energy or causes even a ripple of stress or excitement. You are to lay around and do nothing except drink your juice, read a book, watch TV or a movie, knit, stare at a wall, daydream, sleep.► After several hours of drinking juice you may start to feel really tired, exhausted even. Don’t fight it. Go to bed. Many people experience a long and restful sleep after a fast day, and wake up feeling exhilarated.► If you drink on time exactly, like you’re supposed to, your hunger will decrease and disappear after a few hours. If you miss your feeding, your appetite will rage. If hunger becomes unbearable at any time, you may munch on a handful of almonds (salted or unsalted, and not the whole bag, please). But eat no other food on your fast day. Your goal is to have nothing but liquids for a whole day.► Under NO circumstances should you fast without drinking liquids other than water. Fasting doesn’t mean you provide no nutrition to your body.► The purpose of the weekly fast is to help your body detoxify and get rid of the organic wastes left from your cancer. There’s a lot of it and it’s disgusting. It has to go some place, and you want it out of your body. Plus, your body needs a chance to do serious repairs, utilizing all of its resources. That will be easier if you more or less stop for an entire day.► Take no supplements while you are fasting, but continue with the supplements once you are eating again.

The final drink will be at 3:30. At 4:00 break the fast with a light healthy meal, a sandwich, or other healthy comfort food. Continue with her supplements once she’s eating again. You’re putting this food on an empty tummy so be careful what you give her.

At 1:00 p.m., serve him a healthy, comforting lunch and continue with his meals and supplements as usual.► I believe parents will be able to reason with a 7-11 year old regarding getting her to drink juice every hour. This may not be as easy with someone 4-6, especially using a drink as exotic as carrot juice. If this becomes a battle ground let it drop, and forget the fasting part of the regimen for now. But if the child knows she’s sick and how, you may be able to get her to drink with the explanation that it will make her better. It sure beats chemotherapy! Maybe promise to serve her favorites at the end of the fast—as long as it isn’t junk food?

NOTES

From above, where Puritan’s Pride is recommended: Beta Carotene #1223; Vitamin D3 1000 #15605; Aloe Vera Gel Liquid #1600; Lecithin Softgels #303; Lecithin Granules #1064; L-Cysteine #100; Vitamin C Complex #3140. Visit puritanspride.com or call 800-645-1030.

From above, where Solgar is recommended: Vitamin D3 400. Visit vitamnlife.com.

Beta Carotene will neutralize free radicals, end inflammation, kill cancer, and help reduce tumors. Vitamin D will assist Beta Carotene in its processes. Aloe Vera Gel Liquid has a cleansing effect in your body, especially your colon, through which most of the cancerous waste material must pass as it exits your body. Lecithin will break up and emulsify tumors or other mutated cells, and help rid the body of its wastes. L-Cysteine, like the fast, will help the body detoxify and get rid of the cancerous organic wastes. Vitamin C Complex will assist L-Cysteine in its detoxifying functions.

When you use Lecithin regularly, in the beginning you will notice that you are coughing up and blowing out of your nose, a lot more mucous than usual. This is happening because Lecithin is breaking up blockages and causing mucous and other wastes to be expelled. This is a good sign and after a while, as more and more organic debris is cleaned out of your body, you will find less and less mucous needing to be expelled.

I have recommended Puritan’s Pride brand because their Lecithin is from soybeans only, and contains a minimum of 70 mg of phosphatides in each 1200 mg softgel, equivalent to 61 percent phosphatides. The value of a Lecithin product is determined by the percentage of phosphatides it contains, because they activate the fat emulsifying process in your body. You may use another brand but make sure it conforms to these specifications or it will not work.

Use Lecithin Granules in and on other foods as often as possible. It is best used in blender drinks and sprinkled on salads, fresh cut fruit, and cereals. Make sure to consume it uncooked, in its natural state. One heaping tablespoon is equal to six softgels. You can’t take too much, so feel free to use it liberally.

When you open a bottle of L-Cysteine you will notice a strong odor. It’s supposed to smell like that.

Do not use L-Cysteine if you are allergic to sulphur.

If you take more Beta Carotene than your body can process you might get a mild, dull headache. It lasts as long as it takes your body to utilize the extra Beta Carotene, usually a couple hours. Some people get an itchy rash for a couple hours that can be relieved with Benadryl. There are no other side effects because Beta Carotene will not harm you. It will not turn your skin or the whites of your eyes orange, but in larger doses it will turn your feces that color.

If you take Beta Carotene without also taking Vitamin D, you will deplete your stores of Vitamin D and develop a Vitamin D deficiency. It usually manifests as sores on the inside of the mouth. Be sure to take Vitamin D when you take Beta Carotene and there will be no problem.

Please be nice to each other, and look for my next blog: Blog 5: Alzheimer’s/Dementia, where I tell you how to prevent it and bring back those already lost in the fog.

IT IS THE SINGLE BIGGEST HEALTH THREAT FACED BY YOU AND YOUR FAMILY

CATEGORY: 2: Inflammation

https://lynncapehartwellness.com/2013/09/01/blog-30-essay-2-the-seven-categories-of-illness/

RECOMMENDED SUPPLEMENT: BETA CAROTENE

I had planned to talk about preventing and eliminating cancer in this blog, but it occurred to me that first I should discuss inflammation, which is how cancer and many other diseases begin. No inflammation, no cancer.

Inflammation is a localized immune response, your body’s protective reaction to irritation, injury, infection, or toxin. It is characterized by tenderness, swelling, redness, and in most cases, pain. For sure, if you experience pain anywhere, it is due to inflammation.

In the following, I’ve used analogy, oversimplified the physical processes, misspelled antioxidant, and written twice as much as usual, in an attempt to make things clearer. I hope that by the time you finish this post you will have a better understanding of how cancer and other inflammation based diseases begin and proceed inside your body. If you do nothing more than learn to fend off inflammation for yourself and your family, you will have gone a long way toward remaining cancer free.

In order to understand inflammation, it helps to comprehend the roles played by (a) free radicals, (b) oxidation, and (c) anti-oxidants. These are words you’ve heard before probably, but do you really know what they mean?

Inflammation begins with cell damage by way of free radicals, so let’s start there.

FREE RADICALS

Your body is comprised of cells. Inside a cell, each electron has to have a partner electron in order for the cell to remain stable and healthy. In other words, the two electrons have to remain together, or there will be trouble.

Trouble comes when something happens to damage the bond between the partnered electrons in a healthy cell. If they become separated, or one of them is destroyed, the single electron(s) left behind becomes a free radical, unstable and dangerous.

The single electron/free radical goes berserk when it finds itself suddenly alone, without its partner electron. (How do you feel when you get dumped?) It turns and immediately attacks a nearby healthy cell that has both electrons. It desperately tries to break them apart, so it can steal one and become stable and healthy again itself. If it is successful it once again becomes stable with its stolen electron, but the cell it disrupted becomes a free radical and continues the angry process. A cascade effect can lead to severe cellular damage, and mutations like cancer.

As an analogy, think of the two bonded electrons in a healthy cell as a married couple in a social system where being single is prohibited. In this system, two people (electrons) who are part of a marriage are stable, acceptable. No problem. Live long and prosper.

But a single person (electron) without a partner is a free radical who can only prosper by breaking up another married pair. Like a single hussy or cad who breaks up a marriage and runs off with one of the partners, single electron/free radicals seek to destroy other nearby stable cells for their own benefit.

Cells are damaged and free radicals created in many ways: (a) naturally, as a result of metabolism, but also from (b) irritation, like that from a tight bracelet that leaves the skin red and tender at the end of the day, (c) injury, like banging your shin as you’re getting out of the tub, causing a lump that hurts and shows a bruise, (d) infection, anywhere in the body, (e) toxins, like air pollutants and radiation that bombard first responders, (f) poor diet, insufficient in anti-oxidants to control and neutralize free radicals, and (g) other stressors specific to an individual.

Although free radicals are a natural part of living, like the hussy and cad, when too many of them build up due to the factors listed above, you have oxidation and the beginning of inflammation–a precursor to cancer.

OXIDATION

The simplest way of thinking about oxidation is that it is spoilage, aging, decay–due to contact with oxygen. We live in an oxygen rich environment. You know what happens to an avocado slice left out in the open air. The exposed meat turns brown from contact with oxygen. It oxidizes, spoils, due to an excess of free radicals. Something similar happens inside your body. When you return to the kitchen later, the avocado will be rotting and you won’t eat it. That’s a good instinct, because you would literally be eating free radicals! That is why you should never eat salad that has browned, or other food that is obviously past its prime, unless you absolutely have to. Think of every bite as a mouthful of cancer.

You can even see free radical damage in the mirror. Broadly speaking, aging is another form of oxidation caused by free radicals.

LET’S FOLLOW THE DISEASE GROWTH CURVE IN A HYPOTHETICAL FIRE FIGHTER, FROM INJURY EVENT TO INFLAMMATION AND DISEASE:

John sustains massive cellular damage from exposure to pollution and radiation while fighting fires at ground zero, but has no idea what is happening to him. Inside many of John’s cells, the electrons break their bond and separate, due to damage from the toxin exposure.Large amounts of single electrons are let loose in John’s system as free radicals.Free radical growth continues and finally cascades, leading to oxidation (spoilage and decay), in many parts of John’s system.John’s immune system fights back with localized inflammation. There is some pain but he ignores it.The localized inflammation worsens, as does John’s pain. His cell production begins to mutate and malignant tumors develop on his liver and gallbladder.

New arterial pathways grow to nourish the new mutations and help them survive. Free radical growth continues unabated and new tumors form.

_______________________

We know that John’s cancer is due to (e) toxins, from his exposure to pollutants and radiation after 911, and (f) poor diet, insufficient in anti-oxidants to neutralize the free radicals in his system. Enough anti-oxidants would have prevented the free radicals from cascading and resulting in inflammation and cancer.

ANTI-OXIDANTS

Okay, we’re all on the same page, right? We know that almost any harm that comes to a cell can lead to its electrons separating and turning into free radicals. Get too many of those mean little nasties and you have oxidation, which we know as spoilage and decay. It makes sense then that in order to counter oxidation, you need strong anti-oxidation. You can get this by way of eating certain foods, and taking Beta Carotene. Just remember, food alone is not enough to protect you.

FOODS HIGH IN ANTIOXIDANTS THAT YOU SHOULD EAT MORE OF INCLUDE:

FRUITS: acai berry, blueberry, blackberry, cranberry, raspberry, rose hips, strawberry, apple, prune, grape, plum, cherry, orange, lemon, lime, bilberry, watermelon, and others. VEGETABLES: spinach, kale, red cabbage, peppers, parsley, artichoke, Brussels sprout, carrot, red beet, ginger, potato, tomato, watercress, broccoli, and others.

DRIED FRUITS: apricot, prune, date, raisin, cranberry, cherry, pineapple, and others.

LEGUMES: red bean, black bean, pinto bean, lima bean, soybean, edamame, and others.

NUTS: peanut, pecan, walnut, hazelnuts, and others. OTHER: red wine and dark chocolate.

Anti-oxidants protect you from free radical damage because they have a unique characteristic. Unlike the married electrons in a healthy cell that become free radicals when separated, anti-oxidants give up one of their electrons without becoming a free radical. Think of an anti-oxidant as benevolent, selfless, who like a Mother Teresa wants only to help others in need.

That’s how anti-oxidants neutralize free radicals, by donating one of their own electrons to the free radical, helping it stop being a free radical and become healthy again. The anti-oxidant ends the electron stealing chain reaction discussed above, because anti-oxidants are stable in either form, as a single electron, or a married pair.

The first thing a sous chef does after cutting avocado slices, and before serving them with your grilled chicken sandwich, is to sprinkle on some lemon or lime juice. She does this because the anti-oxidants in the citrus keep the meat from turning brown and decaying right in front of you. The same thing happens in your body, because anti-oxidants neutralize free radicals, stopping oxidation.

You have a choice therefore, to either let free radicals run loose in your system and hope they don’t turn into inflammation and cancer. Or send in anti-oxidants to partner with the free radicals and return them to normalcy, thereby avoiding disease.

You should never use a food supplement to replace eating a wide variety of foods. But besides the foods listed here, you need a strong anti-oxidant supplement like Beta Carotene to avoid inflammation and cancer.

FIGHTING INFLAMMATION GENERALLY WITH BETA CAROTENE

In other blogs I will address specific inflammatory diseases, like cancer and Crohn’s. Here, I’m going to prescribe a minimum maintenance dose for preventing inflammation generally. Since cancer has become a child’s disease, I am including doses for children. Even a toddler has free radicals in her system.

Aloe Vera Gel Liquid 1 teaspoon Puritan’s Pride #1600 99.3%

NOTES

Maybe the Beta Carotene prescribed here sounds like a lot for a maintenance dose. As a reference, I take 50 twice daily for maintenance, more if I’m hurt—up to 200 softgels daily for several days after surgery, to stop pain and discomfort and speed healing. Since they’re  small, it takes only two or three swallows to get 50 down. And I have a zero tolerance approach to illness and pain. I don’t want it to be better; I want it to be gone.

Other vitamins like C and E are known to be good anti-oxidants, but they are not as effective as Beta Carotene. You can continue to take them, but to ensure against serious inflammation based diseases, use Beta Carotene.

Vitamin D is also being prescribed as an assist for Beta Carotene, which uses Vitamin D in its processes. If you can’t find D3 it’s okay to use plain Vitamin D.

Aloe Vera Gel is being prescribed specifically for your colon, because this is such an easy spot for cancer and other inflammations like Crohn’s disease to flourish. You know how soothing Aloe Vera feels on a cut, sunburn, or patch of irritated skin. It does the same thing in your intestines, soothes and cleanses. You will notice that after a few days taking the gel, your movements won’t smell as bad, nor will your various expulsions of air. Think of the colon as the body’s dumping ground, its garbage can. Extra care must be taken to keep the intestines clean and healthy.

If you take more Beta Carotene than your body can process you might get a mild, dull headache. It lasts as long as it takes your body to utilize the Beta Carotene, usually a couple hours. Some people get an itchy rash for a couple hours that can be relieved with Benadryl. There are no other side effects because Beta Carotene will not harm you. It will not turn your skin or the whites of your eyes orange, but if you take enough it will turn your feces that color.

If you take Beta Carotene without also taking Vitamin D, you will deplete your stores of Vitamin D and develop a Vitamin D deficiency. It usually manifests as sores on the inside of the mouth. Be sure to take Vitamin D every time you take Beta Carotene and there will be no problem.

Don’t use Mixed Carotenoids. They are a marketing gimmick and will not work the way I have described here. Only straight up Beta Carotene will work.

Please be nice to each other, and look for my next post: Blog 4: CANCER, where I tell you how to prevent and eliminate it anywhere in the body.
