Cancer treatments

 Ultimately , the observation that the mind and  body  are intrinsically linked, arguably, potentiates disease. The question is what activates the  other? A rhetorical question, like the question, what comes first the chicken or the egg?
 Having seen the benefits of implementing significant eating patterns to people whom have disease the benefits to both mind and  body has been proof enough to suggest  that food can and  does improve the mind. There are  countless studies and evidence based studies to provide proof that food certainly alters behaviours and change the way our brain is wired .  Our thoughts become our words and our words  become our actions. They go hand in hand so as does our mind and body. Rigidity is  required specifically for a diseased state such as cancer . 


Cancer protocols in nutritional medicine. 

Generally for the past 80 years and thanks to the development of modern medicine the focus in cancer treatment has been the use of a traditional triad of warfare. This includes surgery, radiation and chemotherapy. Unfortunately and as awareness grows in this field of interest those that have been afflicted by this growing disease are searching for alternative therapies looking to the past for age old remedies that actually work in the management and in the restoration of their declining bodies. Lets face it all diseases stem from dysfunctions with in the cell  that is an undeniable fact but a proven fact is that whilst you may be genetically predisposed of "getting cancer " 75% of all cancers can be attributed to environmental factors including malnutrition. This figure has surpassed smoking as a major risk factor of acquiring lung cancer, surprising enough even with this knowledge some people overlook the simplicity of looking at their current dietary habits as a control for and against cancer growth .

A resurgence of theory called the warburg effect founded by Otto warburg in the 1920s has gained momentum over the past 5 years with two specific researchers specifying that cancer regardless of genetic origins  have one thing in common and that is their metabolism.This theory is a singular cause of all cancers and that is arguably cured by diet,lifestyle changes and nutritional supplementation.  Cancer seems to thrive on sugar and we are not talking about the loose packets of sugar crystals that you may have in a cup of tea.It is most of the carbohydrate laden simple sugars found predominately in our western diet. Thomas Siegfried, Ph.D.in his new book states then in such a disease as cancer, these carbohydrates need to be reduced if not eliminated and replaced with a high caloric "fat "diet. The diet in question is the "ketogenic diet".  The theory is  starve the body of sugar and feed the man fat as   cancer cells simply  can not use this substrate as a fuel source there fore they will wither and perish. It is not  a cure but a regeneration of new cells with the eradication of or a reduction in their size. This is the key to management of this disease as once you have cancer cells, their stem cell or primitive characteristics of adapation as a survival mechanism ensures that they are here to stay and nothing will ultimately defeat them. And that in itself is the very reason that the medical and traditional fraternity have been left scratching their heads as to why nothing is really working in finding the "cure " for cancer.
​
Ketogenic diet 
Glucose is the main fuel cancer cells use to thrive, and the more glucose and insulin available in the bloodstream, the more glucose is available to allow cancer to sustain itself via glycolysis and fermentation.  Enter the ketogenic diet , a diet predominately high in fat, protein and little carbohydrates employed for a limited amount of time . 
A personalised approach is required for each individual suffering from any types of cancer as each person is unique.

Here is a list of fats to get you started ;

  • Avocado
  • Beef tallow
  • Butter
  • Chicken Fat
  • Ghee
  • Non-hydrogenated Lard
  • Macadamia Nuts
Proteins 
  • Fish- .Preferably , flounder, halibut, mackerel, mahi-mahi, salmon, snapper, trout, and tuna.
  • Shellfish. Clams, oysters, lobster, crab, scallops, mussels, and squid.
  • Whole Eggs. Try to get them free-range from the local market if possible. You can prepare them in a number of different ways like fried, deviled, boiled, poached, and scrambled.
  • Meat. Beef, Veal, Goat, Lamb, and other wild game. Grass fed is preferred as it has a better fatty acid count.
  • Pork. Pork loin, pork chops, and ham. Watch out for added sugars in ham.
  • Poultry. Chicken, Duck, Quail, Pheasant. Free range or organic is the best choice here if possible.
  • Bacon and Sausage. Check labels for anything cured in sugar, or if it contains extra fillers.
  • Peanut Butter. Go for natural peanut butter, but be careful as they have high counts of Omega-6’s and carbohydrates. Try to opt for macadamia nut butter if you can.

Liver cancer 
Liver cancer is resistant to most chemotherapy drugs.  In most studies, systemic chemotherapy has not helped patients to live longer.  5-fluorouracil, cisplatin, and interferon-alpha are used to treat liver cancer with no real success however nutritional medicine has been effective as it may attenuate the tumour and improve the quality of life for the patient. It is far more effective to rebuild the body and to reverse the cell abberations than to kill all the affected cells and the good ones thus far. 

Some of the recommended nutritional protocols are as follows ;

​A diet rich in plant antioxidants and bioflavonoids is recommended in order to reduce inflammation and metastasis.
 
Specific nutrients for HCC include:Alpha-carotene, choline, betaine, curcumin, selenium, S-Adenosyl methionine (SAMe), DHA, EPA, L-carnitine, vitamin K2, vitamin E, C,   green tea polyphenols, 3,3′-diindolylmethane, resveratrol, lycopene, vitamin D, Lactobacillus casei Shirota, Bifidobacterium bifidum and Lactobacillus plantarum,   branch chain amino acids( BCAAs) and a proteolytic enzyme formulation.
