Leukemia

[wantsandwishes]

I have done a search and found some information from here already but really want to have some current help. My friend who is going to go raw with me starting January 1st, has been diagnosed with Leukemia as of Monday. So obviously our schedule has been sped up. Any help you can give us to help her would be much appreciated. She has decided not to go with Chemotherapy and is going to take the natural approach. She needs all the support she can get. Thanks in advance. Everyone here has always been so supportive. I used to be ksabe98 before the new format but my new name is more appropriate anyway.

Do as much research on the disease as you can. I did this with breast cancer 10 years ago. There is a tremendous amount of fantastic info out there to tap into and learn from. So many long-time raw practitioners gave me such sound advice, but sadly, I let fear rule at the time and did chemo.
So many people that I had the fortune to interact with told me that raw food had the same healing results or better than any chemo. None of us are medical professionals, just average people trying to take the best care of this earthly body.

I did learn through research and discussing with natural practitioners and published authors that cancer cannot grow in an oxygen environment. That means greens, wheatgrass juice, alkaline foods (raw fits the bill here), plenty of laughter, fresh air and exercise, and gratitude for EVERYTHING in your life (as in either good or a challenge).

Sounds like you are on the healing path. My best thoughts and wishes are with you and your friend.

Yeah! Check out Revvell's interviews with Brenda Cobb, then go to her website and take it from there. There are lots of cancer survivors who did it naturally. It could truly turn into an exciting adventure for your friend.

Sadly, I used to work at a health food store and watch people come in and say they were doing natural treatment for cancer and really weren't. Like they'd drink a little bit of herbal tea and eat a few vegetables. But not the profound change of life and committment it would take to change the course of cancer. It certainly can be done but I can't believe how many people I've heard say they'd rather die than change their eating habits! And they do...... I've personally met several people who did exclusively macrobiotics and not Western approaches to cure cancer. And I'm sure the raw diet would blow that out of the water with results IF someone was really dedicated to doing a very comprehensive approach, including colon cleansing. Most people think colon cleansing is just not acceptable YET going to the surgeons and having body parts be dismembered is okay and to be disfigured for life!

I also know of a very accomplished natural health care practicioner who specializes in cancer treatment. Let me know if you'd like me to pass along his info.

There is a God-given solution! Your friend is in my prayers.

Thank you so much for your responses. Where can I find these interviews and websites? She has already committed to doing raw and now is committed to doing whatever it takes to get well. Any other suggestions would be helpful. Are there any raw foodists here now who are going through the same thing that could be supportive with her during this time? She was looking for boards such as this but has only found ones that had people who are doing the western approach and she really needs support from someone who is dedicated more to getting well. Your responses have been helpful thankyou.

A friend of mine has Leukemia and is undergoing Chemo Treatments for 1 week every month... I totally have faith in a Raw Food Diet and Active lifestyle, but the doctors have told her that she cannot consume any raw foods and everything must be Pasturized and fully cooked in case of a bacterial infection caused by the raw food intake. This sounds completely rediculous to me, Any info or truth about this statement would be greatly appreciated. I feel as if they are killing her! Help Please!

I am happy to send you some information via email, but I see you haven't enabled that feature...

I am by no means a person that has an institute or healing practice. So please understand that.

Though I have spent thousands of hours researching health. I've learned so much that I've forgot most of it and I remember pretty much the most important things. And yes I have spent that much time researching health. I have the freedom of not needing to work a 9-5 and everything I need I have, so I dedicate all my time to myself and a large portion of that time is spent learning whatever interests me. And health has been a major interest of mine for the past 6 years.

ANYHOW.................

There is one thing in common with all the healing institutes that I've researched. Detox the body. And nourish the body with living nutrition. Doing this allows the body a chance to heal.

DETOX

Colonics on an ongoing basis. This allows the colon to become clean. And once it's clean it has the opportunity to remove toxins from the body. If it's coated with impacted fecal matter then it's never going to have a chance to get rid of any toxins floating around in the body. It must be clean first, and it must be cleansed on an ongoing basis because toxins from the body will migrate to the colon and they need flushed out.

Coffee enemas on an ongoing basis. If the body is showing signs of sickness the liver also needs attention. It is the filter of the body and needs assistance to help detox, but you must be cleansing the colon too, otherwise if the liver expels toxins the body will simply pick those toxins back up if they cant find their way out of the colon.

I'm not going to suggest how much or how often one needs to perform colonics and coffee enemas. But I can say that once or twice isn't going to cut it. The typical schedule for the Gerson Institute is a coffee enema every four hours during the day. A different institute that I can't recall the name of right now does two colonics per day. Once in the morning and again one at night.

Doing simply colonics and coffee enemas will make a profound difference to all the living waters of the body by cleansing them.

Also you may want to look into probiotics also with all the colon cleansing. I like to eat fermented foods that I make myself, but you can also do probiotic retention enemas to repopulate gut with friendlies. The friendly bacterias will also evict the harmful bacterias. But your colon needs to be clean otherwise the harmful bacteria will find breeding grounds in all the undigested impacted fecal matter.

NUTRITION

If you don't have one already then spend the money on a quality juicer that can juice greens. And make several green juice drinks daily. Make them fresh everytime. Green juice will alkalize the body and as you alkalize you oxygenate. The alkalizing juice will also help neutralize acidic wastes of the body. Fresh made organic green juice will flood the body with vital nutrients, ezymes, minerals that has most likely been lacking from the previous diet. Make a minimum of 4 cups of green juice a day. I would suggest more.

Raw food diet of course. You must feed the body what it has been designed to operate on. That's why there is sickness in the first place, because we have been brainwashed in our society about food choices and what types off foods we should be eating. And this was all done in the name of profits for those specific industries, it has nothing to do with bringing people health. It is all marketing to continue their revenue stream. So stick to a raw food diet full of living nutrient dense organic produce. Don't even bother shopping in the aisles in the market. Stick to the produce section, the produce section is where you are going to find life. Eat living foods and live, eat dead foods and so shall your bodies be.


And that's the basis. Get the crap out so that the good stuff can get in. When you commit to doing this your body will begin to heal. And I could dedicate an entire book to this simple message, but in a nutshell this is what is needed.

Don't let my small post and the simple nature of the process make it seem like it's too easy and that there must be more to it. It truly is simple, so again here's the simple message.

Detox all the years of accumulated toxins. Nourish the body with living organic food.

I did learn through research and discussing with natural practitioners and published authors that cancer cannot grow in an oxygen environment. That means greens, wheatgrass juice, alkaline foods (raw fits the bill here), plenty of laughter, fresh air and exercise, and gratitude for EVERYTHING in your life (as in either good or a challenge).

Not only can cancer cells not grow in an oxygen environment, they are actually killed or become normal cells in an alkaline, oxygenated environment. All of the things that she said are very important, and I will also go into a little more depth here; however, I am still only barely touching upon many of these aspects, but feel free to post questions and I will give you links or more information.


greens, wheatgrass juice, alkaline foods

VERY important...have your friend grow her own green sprouts (alfalfa, clover, fenugreek, etc), microgreens (pea shoots, sunflower greens, buckwheat lettuce, chia and flax greens), and wheatgrass (ryegrass, barleygrass, and oatgrass are equally good).


Stick to the produce section, the produce section is where you are going to find life. Eat living foods and live, eat dead foods and so shall your bodies be.


I disagree with this statement; since your friend has leukemia, I would advise minimizing even the produce from supermarkets and eating a predominantly sprout-based diet...the reason for this is what fastfreedom said, "Eat living foods and live, eat dead foods and so shall you bodies be". Sadly, the produce in supermarkets is barely alive by the time you buy it, as it was picked from the plant weeks before you actually buy it, and the nutrients are virtually all gone by then, as is the life force/electromagnetic energy. Sprouts, however, are literally growing up until the moment you eat them, and are loaded with vitamins, minerals, phytochemicals, and life force - the highest vibration foods you can eat are sprouted greens and grasses. Look into Dr. Ann wigmore, who cured many people of cancer and seemingly "uncurable" diseases by feeding them a predominantly sprout-based diet and wheatgrass juice.


cancer cannot grow in an oxygen environment.

Please have your friend read the book "The One Minute Cure" - here is a link to the full text online http://www.bibliotecapleyades.net/ciencia/ciencia_industryweapons33.htm This extremely cheap and simple practice alone could cure your friend of cancer.


fresh air and exercise

Also very important - the most beneficial exercise is rebounding, which is jumping on a mini-trampoline. Have your friend do it at least 20 minutes every day. Rebounding is the only exercise proven to stimulate every cell in your body, and it is an extremely powerful detoxification aid - as are far infrared saunas, and if your friend can afford them, the benefits are immense,


plenty of laughter and gratitude for EVERYTHING in your life

Suffice to say that the mind and your emotions can positively cure any and all disease...the mind is such an extraordinarily powerful tool, but I don't have the time to go into depth about that here. I would strongly advise your friend to start meditating and finding ways to reduce stress in her life. There are certain CDs and other products formulated specifically to eliminate stress. Look into Dr. Leonard Coldwell, who has cured over 35,000 cancer patients using primarily stress-reducing techniques. You might also want to look into a technique known as EFT.


Colonics on an ongoing basis. This allows the colon to become clean. And once it's clean it has the opportunity to remove toxins from the body. If it's coated with impacted fecal matter then it's never going to have a chance to get rid of any toxins floating around in the body. It must be clean first, and it must be cleansed on an ongoing basis because toxins from the body will migrate to the colon and they need flushed out.

Coffee enemas on an ongoing basis. If the body is showing signs of sickness the liver also needs attention. It is the filter of the body and needs assistance to help detox, but you must be cleansing the colon too, otherwise if the liver expels toxins the body will simply pick those toxins back up if they cant find their way out of the colon.

Cleansing the colon is a most-do...not only for people with degenerative diseases, but for anyone who has come off the SAD diet. Colonics and coffee enemas are effective (garlic enemas are also great for detoxifying the liver), but I would also recommend an herbal colon cleanse formula to get maximum benefits. I know that there are plenty of good formulas out there, but I would recommend Dr. Richard Schulze's Intestinal cleanse formula #1 and Intestinal cleanse formula #2, as I can personally vouch for their effectiveness (the two are taken together during the colon cleanse). As with the colonics and enemas, I would recommend doing this cleanse multiple times, separated by a few weeks each time. Colon cleansing alone will not fully detoxify the body, but it opens up your main elimination channel so that you can fully cleanse your body. The next step is doing a liver cleanse...once again, I recommend following the protocol developed by Dr. Richard Schulze. I have absolutely no financial conflicts of interest, I truly believe that this man has some of the best protocols and products out there (and I am by no means alone with my opinion). The liver is the main detoxification in your body; absolutely nothing can enter your bloodstream until it has been purified of contaminants by your liver (this is vitally important...read that sentence again). Your liver also performs more then 500 different functions in your body. Many experts say that illness is impossible if you have a healthy, optimally functioning liver. Because of our lifestyles and the toxic world that we live in, virtually everyone's liver is clogged, ineffective and overloaded with toxins. Luckily, your liver has a truly amazing capacity to regenerate itself, and a liver cleanse can do wonders for your health. After cleansing your liver (maybe more then once), do a kidney/gallbladder cleanse, a heavy metal cleanse, a parasite cleanse, a candida cleanse, and a full body/lymphatic cleanse. Do all of the cleanses, and many people are healed from "incurable" diseases. While I have not used the product myself, Dr. Schulze sells a product called "The Incurables", which incorporates all of these cleanses into a single product, and also includes important guidelines. It would probably be cheaper and easier then doing all of the cleanses individually. While we're talking about the colon, Dr. Ann Wigmore had spectacular results from wheatgrass implants - injecting wheatgrass juice up your colon like an enema.

Another thing to consider is juice fasting - preferably consuming massive amounts of homegrown juiced green sprouts, microgreens and wheatgrass. Juice fasting allows the body to heal like nothing else, it is truly miraculous.

I know that all of this information may seem overwhelming, but the key here is that many of these steps ALONE are capable of allowing your friend to heal from her cancer. This is also not the "end all be all" of health...like I said before, I am just barely touching on the topic. I, like, fastfreedom, have spent thousands of hours researching health but I don;t have the time to condense that all into a single post (but I sure did try :woot:). I will be sharing a few different books that you can read if you want to be more educated about these topics (and more importantly, get your friend to read them), and because I don't agree with you having to pay for this information ( a.k.a buy the books), all of the links I am providing are to free, online versions of all of this.

https://herbdocblog.com/book-view/8/ and https://herbdocblog.com/book-view/7/: books by Dr. Schulze that go into detoxification and cleansing of the colon and liver in much more detail then I could here.

http://www.jonbarron.org/pdf/lessons_from_the_miracle_doctors.pdf - a book by Jon Barron that describes how sickness occurs and how to heal it, it elaborates on many of the things that I mentioned here.

http://www.bibliotecapleyades.net/archivos_pdf/naturalcures.pdf - A book by Kevin Trudeau that goes into FAR more detail then I possibly could here. I highly recommend that you read it, unfortunately some are put off by his style - much of the book is dedicated to helping the reader understand how they are being kept sick by the pharmaceutical industry, the food industry, the FDA and the FTC. Please believe me when I say that virtually everything that he says in this book is the truth (With one glaring exception - he claims that if a food is organic, then it is healthy and good for you. Ignore this advice and stick to a raw diet high in fresh greens, sprouts, and green juices).

[Living Food]

If your friend drinks tap water, she absolutely MUST get a high quality filter...tap water is filled with unbelievably toxic chemicals and can cause all kinds of disease. Ideally after filtering you would re-mineralize and energize the water, but that isn't necessary. As absurd as it sounds, saying "I love you" to a glass of water before you drink it, or thinking positive thoughts towards it, actually makes it far healthier to drink. If you have the time, look into structured water. This video explains a lot about the nature of water: naturalnews.tv/v.asp

P.S - Learning about structured water is far less important then learning about the other things that I gave links to in my previous post, if you are a relative newbie when it comes to health. I am merely presenting this for those who already have solid understandings of what I posted previously.
