best cancer fighting foods

[Tenet Nosce]

as nutrition i can say there is a solution:

ceasing consumption of sugar, red meat, alcohol and protein as these foods feed cancer cells. Also consuming ORAC may help .

I once knew a fruitarian that got stomach cancer. Go figure.

Ah, if only everyone could agree on which foods are nutritious! Especially when absorption/assimilation come into play. Milk is a prime example of a food commonly thought of as nutritious but many in the alternative health community would disagree.

Ya, that's true. But generally speaking, determining the concentration of nutrients per calorie is pretty straightforward. Could be a place to start.

Our medical adviser, one of the top 10 MDs in the world, explains that when we drink ERW, most of it is absorbed in the esophagus! So it doesn't even hit the stomach (contrary to popular belief).

Interesting. I've always wondered that about many herbal tinctures- especially those which are supposed to work on the digestive tract. Seems like it would be absorbed before it even hits the stomach.

I can send a link to a short video of him explaining this, to anyone who's interested. Just send me a pm.

Thanks!

Thank you! One of the raw vegan gurus, Victoria Boutenko, popularized the idea of 'green smoothies' as a way for humans to more closely simulate the gorilla diet. There's just no other way to get enough greens otherwise! Gorillas chew on leaves all day long! Who wants to do that!

Apparently, gorillas do!

Better than to poop a lot than too little!

LOL! True enough.

Oh I didn't know that; very interesting! It seems to vary a lot depending on their environment too, and whether they're wild or in captivity.

Just like humans!!

Well if you get the right stuff in, the body will automatically get the wrong stuff out.

YESSSSS! And as a convenient side-note you get to avoid all the difficulties associated with trying to change behavior based on a negative.

Then, finally, after several conversations, it came out that she wasn't drinking water...she was making tea with the water! In her mind, it was the same thing, but of course it isn't at all. So often, the person leaves out a very important detail. I used to marvel back when I tried to sell health insurance (I say "tried" because I was awful at it) and people would tell me they were "very healthy" then when I saw them, it turned out they were obese and diabetic. Or they'd say they didn't take any meds but when we did the list, it turned out they were taking about 6-8 OTC meds on a regular basis!

While I was in clinical training, we had an obese diabetic patient who was not progressing at all. Turns out she neglected to mention she was eating a half gallon of ice cream a day!

Iron I understand, but why zinc? I never thought much about zinc. I know it's found in nuts and seeds, especially pumpkin seeds, but I admit I don't eat pumpkin seeds much.

Oh ya! Check zinc out- it does so many essential things! Here is a resource to get started.

Tahini is a staple at our house.

The folks at the Mediterranean store down the street keep thinking we are Arabic because of all the tahini we buy!

Agreed! But the same could be said whether they eat meat or not. Vegans just have different problems due to lack of education than meat-eaters do.

True. At the risk of sounding like a broken record, I just can't figure out how somebody can be so passionate about something, yet not see the value in making the time and effort to educate themselves and get the facts straight.
