Cancer Killer Nearly Forgotten

There was a story not so long ago about a natural cancer killer that had been hidden for years. In fact over 20 years. Once this secret had been revealed, it improved the chances of survival of cancer patients by many years.

It’s a tree that grows deep in the rain forest of the Amazon in South America. If your current M.D. will not take the time to look into it, then find a Naturopath or a Homeopath that will take the time to look into the information that you provide him from this article.

One thing that may be confusing is that the term/name Paw Paw will be used to describe graviola. When someone is talking about graviola and references Paw Paw they are most likely talking about the graviola from Brazil. This variety is considered stronger than graviola from other parts of the world. The reason for the difference is that non-Brazilian graviola has a single ring compound; the Brazilian variety of graviola has a double ring compound which make it (the Brazilian variety) the much more powerful graviola.

One must be aware that in Puerto Rico, paw paw has reference to the papaya fruit which has no relationship to the graviola.

We all need to look for the natural ways to prevent and cure cancer from a natural prospective.

Since the 1970’s, the bark, leaves, roots, fruit and fruit seeds of the Amazonian Graviola tree have been studied in numerous laboratory tests and have shown remarkable result with this deadly disease, cancer.

A few years ago a pharmaceutical company started independent research on this tree and its extracts. Even though they proved that the compounds from the Graviola tree would and did cure cancer, they shelved the research. Why? Because the pharmaceutical company could not obtain an patent on their discovery.

They tried to duplicate the trees properties, but could never perfect the process. So they shut down the entire project, permanently. This goes to show that the pharmaceuticals are only interested in profit and not especially the well being of the public.

Almost ten years have passed before a natural-oriented researcher discovered the fantastic properties of the Graviola tree. This evidence was brought before the National Cancer Institute (NCI) which verified that the leaves and stems were effective in attacking and killing cancer cells.

To this day there as not been enough interest in the product for anyone in the medical field to conduct double-blind studies for its effectiveness. There was one study conducted by the Catholic University of South Korea that revealed that the extracts from the Graviola tree showed comparable results to chemotherapy.

In further research it was found that the extracts of the Graviola selectively seeks out and kills cancer cells.

If you have been diagnosed with cancer, you and a doctor should look into the treatment options provided by the Graviola extract.

Now the graviola is know by many names, for instance: Cherimoya, guanabana, soursop, brazilian paw paw and probably a couple that I have not heard of as yet.

The graviola has been publicized in recent years as a successful treatment for cancer, but it is not only helpful for cancer. It has been used to treat: herpes, infections and parasites.

Graviola extracts have also been shown to be effective against the growth of Adriamycin resistant human mammary adenocarcinoma (MCF-7/Adr) by blocking the cancer cell’s access to ATP and by inhibiting the actions of plasma membrane glycoprotein.

When this happens the energy at the cell level drops to a critical level the cell falls apart. The residual pieces of the dead cancer cell are called lysing. Cancer cells group together and a large amount of lysing cannot be destroyed by the surrounding cells. Lung and brain cancer patients are especially at risk for obvious reasons.

Cancer Natural Alternative and Diet

As cancer continues to throw in mourning thousands of families throughout the world, the need to produce other medicines more effective and less dangerous seems more urgent. Although radiotherapy and chemotherapy are effective in some cases, their hypothetical result and negative effects cause a great number of cancer victims to turn to natural cures. Researchers in several countries are trying to develop treatments that are less destructive; therapies aiming at activating the immune system to force cancer cells to commit suicide.

As the conventional medicine does, there are natural treatments against cancer that bring results in life of thousands of cancer victims. However, these therapies require a combination of taking remedies and application of healthy habits at the same time; a radical change in your way of life (healthy diet, moderate exercise, and sometimes change of environment) is always recommended. If followed with perseverance and patience, these alternative methods could eradicate not only the cancer but also other asymptomatic diseases developing in your body.

These herbal remedies can be used for all types of cancer, ovarian, cervical, liver, pancreatic, bone, bladder, lung, prostate, breast, colon, stomach, testicular, thyroid, kidney, throat, rectal, brain, mouth, uterine, esophageal and more. They work by boosting the immune system to attack the cancer cells forcing them to commit suicide. This article is not enough to enumerate all remedies you can use to fight cancer. Some of the most effective, however, are included:

Vegetable Juice ? along with the supplements below, many times a day in empty stomach, drink a glass of fresh vegetable juice. This is not a cancer treatment; however, cruciferous vegetables along with radish juice have many curative effects on a variety of diseases including cancer.

Is a Raw Food Diet Boring?

I have to be honest.

The Health Benefits of Vitamin C

The C vitamin has got to be the most widely known vitamin these days. It is not surprising because the body needs c vitamin for over 300 functions. In fact, the C vitamin has been proved to help protect against heart disease, cancer and other serious illnesses. Without the c vitamin the body would not be able to heal itself either.

This is because the C vitamin is vital for the formation of collagen. Whenever a person has a cut or an injury it is the collagen that helps repair the damage and without sufficient C vitamin this would be almost impossible. Collagen has a multitude of functions in the body, including keeping the organs in place, and it would not be able to do this without sufficient C vitamin.

The C vitamin is also an antioxidant for the body and helps other vitamins and minerals to be absorbed better. Folic acid and iron, for example, need the C vitamin to maximise their usefulness. The more C vitamin that the body has, the better its defence against colds and other common ailments and the C vitamin may not prevent a person catching a virus but it does help speed up the recovery process.

There is C vitamin in almost every fruit and vegetable but some have far higher C vitamin content than others. Cranberries and melons have high C vitamin content. In fact, tropical fruits have the highest C vitamin amounts of all fruit. Hot peppers are amongst the richest sources of the c vitamin when it comes to vegetables. The hotter the pepper, the higher its C vitamin content is.

Unfortunately, the C vitamin is water soluble so many vegetables lose their effectiveness as a c vitamin provider if they are boiled for a long time. Steaming or quick stir frying vegetables ensures that more of their C vitamin content is retained. The recommended daily amount of the C vitamin is easily obtained from eating five portions of fruit and vegetables a day if they are consumed raw or cooked quickly.

C vitamin supplements are extremely useful to ensure that people obtain sufficient C vitamin. However, with a balanced diet the amount of C vitamin the body receives is likely to be sufficient. However, if a person begins feeling tired or lethargic then a C vitamin supplement will help overcome this. There is no danger of having too much C vitamin as the body simply excretes the excess.
