Healing Cancer - Learn About Ways to Remove It So It Won't Come Back




Have you ever wondered why a person dies after being successfully treated for cancer? When a doctor tells a patient they have got it all, that doesn't mean you can carry on living the same way you were, when the cancer first appeared. Only a person who is ill informed or a fool would do that.





We don't get cancer, our bodies grow it and the reason it grows is because of factors relating to modern living. It's our artificial food, the toxic chemicals we use believing them to be harmless and generally a life void of the 7 necessities of life. Cancer wasn't a problem many years ago and nowadays is only a problem in developed countries so you don't have to be a genius to figure out the causes of it.





Cancer is similar to a disease called scurvy that was a problem 200 years ago. Scurvy is a deficiency disease where the body is deficient in vitamin C. Of course there is not a treatment or a drug to cure scurvy but is easily corrected by an intake of food containing the missing vitamin. Cancer is also a deficiency disease but a more serious one and none of our current ways of treating it will correct that. That's why so many people are dying of the problem.





With deficiency diseases it is pointless just removing the symptoms. A symptom is a sign that's telling the body that something is wrong and a better way or the only way is to enhance our natural defence system which is the immune system. Why do we have treatments that only remove growths? It's because our entire drug based western health care which is tightly controlled by pharmaceutical companies is money orientated whereas no one can profit from natural ways as nature can not be patented.





The successful outcome of cancer can only be achieved through a patient's immune system and the foundation to a strong immune system is through diet. The diet I'm talking about is plant based which has come directly from the earth and not via a factory. It is essential that the food you choose to eat is freshly grown and the results are nothing short of amazing.





Other lifestyle factors that you need to address are, exercise as very few of us are getting enough these days. It was discovered 80 years ago that cancer cells despise oxygen. In fact oxygen therapy is a favourite among many natural clinics; because it is effective in removing cancer cells without damaging the rest of the body. The easiest way to get oxygen into the body is through exercise.





What is also important is some vitamin D and we get that freely from the sun. Dark skin people need more than fair skin people as their skin doesn't absorb the sun's rays as well. We also need water to drink, something we have almost forgotten to do as we are mainly consuming sugary flavoured drinks, and let's not forget plenty of rest and sleep. All these changes are important in healing the body from cancer without it returning.





Cancer treatments today may have become more sophisticated but unfortunately the survival statistics don't reflect any changes.

Poor Body Image Because Of Cancer And How To Deal With It




The cells in our body grow, multiply and die in a fixed pattern. Cancer disrupts this pattern and causes cells to grow in an abnormal fashion in places where they are not needed. This may result in a mass of tissue which might be malignant. It invades the other surrounding tissues and can damage the vital organs of the body.





Cancer treatment may comprise of surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy or hormone therapy. All these are proven successful treatments for cancer, though there are side effects for these treatments. Apart from visible side effects, cancer treatment can affect you emotionally as well.





Cancer and cancer treatment can leave permanent physical changes in your body. For some survivors their victory over cancer is more important than changes in appearance but for some it can be a cause of depression.





The shape or size of your body does change after you have had cancer treatment. You may lose or gain a lot of weight and there might even be considerable hair loss. Permanent changes like an amputated limb or a removed breast or scars from surgery and radiation may make matters worse, even when some of the changes are not visible to others.





Your body will not be able to function the way it did before you had cancer and you may find your self esteem challenged because of this. These small changes may overwhelm you at times. It might remind you constantly that your life is not the same anymore and will never be.





It becomes difficult for some people to accept these changes in the body. They might even lose self confidence. It might affect their professional lives too, if they feel their colleagues are more attractive and smarter.





Some people feel very conscious about the changes in their body and shy away from socializing. They also feel they cannot relate to normal people who have not known the sufferings of cancer.





It is true that everyone is not sensitive towards cancer survivors, especially if they carry visible signs on their bodies. Negative reactions from others may trigger further discomfort and even anger at times.





You need to have a strong positive attitude and try to surround yourself with people who know what you have been through. If they really care for you, they will be proud of you to have fought cancer instead of pitying you for your physical appearance.





Every cancer survivor has their own way of dealing with poor body image. You can try associating with other survivors and sharing experiences to gain some confidence. Professional counseling may also help to a great extent. Change your wardrobe and wear what makes you look and feel good. Healthy habits and discipline in life can also improve your inner strength. Finally, you can also opt for cosmetic surgery to restore your physical appearance.





Your appearance is just one part of your personality. Focus more on your talents, your relationships and the love and warmth you share with your friends and family. Remember, people dont love you just for the way you look.

Cancer is a Battle That Can Be Won But it is Not By Just Removing the Growths




Many cancer patients have been successfully treated by our modern medical system yet have still succumbed to the disease. The reason being, our medical system solely focuses on purging the body of these foreign growths but that won't stop the cancer from spreading to another area. Treating cancer successfully doesn't mean just removing the growth, it means making changes to make sure the primary cancer growth doesn't metastasis or spread to another area because it is then that it becomes dangerous.





For someone facing cancer there are many changes a patient must make to help overcome the problem. Everyone is aware of our mainstream treatments of surgery, radiation and toxic drugs but those treatments are only attempting to eliminate the growths. What you also need to do is to make sure the growths don't reappear again in some other location because it's secondary cancer, or cancer that has metastasis or shifted to another part of the body that kills people. Making changes to the reasons why it first grew is essential in surviving the disease.







Cancer when first detected is called primary cancer and nobody has ever died of it. What kills people is when it has metastasised which means shifted to another location. So it is important to make changes to the reasons why the primary growths first appeared so that it doesn't return again to another location. That's when cancer becomes secondary and that's when people die of it.





Our three treatments for the disease are not designed to cure anybody but are in place only to remove as much of the cancer as they can safely do so. Doctors don't know why cancer first appears so all they can do is to try and remove it. Also we all believe that once they have removed the cancer a patient is cured and ready to carry on with their life again. Unfortunately that approach seldom works because it doesn't deal with the initial cause which is far more important.





There is only one way to successfully deal with cancer and that's to address and correct the reasons why it first grew and that will allow the body to heal and remove the cancer naturally. A cancer growth anywhere in the body is just a symptom of a problem and the problem lies somewhere else in the body. A symptom is an indication that something is wrong so there is little point in just removing that symptom.





You may ask if our current way of treating cancer is so ineffective why do doctors use these harsh treatments. The simple answer is that money plays a bit part in anything to do with the disease, whether is diagnosing it or treating it. No one can profit from natural treatments for cancer even though they work much better because they address and correct the reasons why the cancer first grew.





The entire cancer industry is focused only on removing cancer and while that is important it doesn't solve the problem because it hasn't dealt with the reasons why it first grew which means if you don't make any changes it's only going to come back again.





Cancer can be beaten but it's not just by removing the foreign growths, it's by treating the person and correcting the reasons why it first grew.

Ovarian Cancer - Causes, Symptoms And Treatment




Ovarian cancer is cancer that begins in the ovaries. Ovaries are reproductive glands found only in women. The ovaries produce eggs (ova) for reproduction. The eggs travel through the fallopian tubes into the uterus where the fertilized egg implants and develops into a fetus. The ovaries are also the main source of the female hormones estrogen and progesterone. One ovary is located on each side of the uterus in the pelvis.





Causes of Ovarian Cancer





Women who have not had children are slightly more likely to develop ovarian cancer than women who have, although the risk is still very low. Having two or more children may provide more protection than just one.





Breast feeding your children may slightly decrease your risk.





Starting your periods early or having a late menopause slightly increases your risk of ovarian cancer.





If a woman has ovarian cancer and her daughter develops ovarian cancer, the daughter will probably develop the cancer at a relatively young age (younger than 60 years).





Family history: A woman's risk for developing ovarian cancer increases if she has a first degree relative (like sister, mother, grandmother) that suffered from ovarian cancer. The risks do not necessarily increase because of a family history ovarian cancer - but when the inherited genetic mutations are present. However, a woman's risk for ovarian cancer can be tied to a family history of breast or colon cancer. Also the risk for ovarian cancer is indirectly proportional with the age of the relative that suffered from ovarian cancer.





Symptoms of Ovarian Cancer





Early stage ovarian cancer may not cause many symptoms, or they may be vague and overlooked. In addition, vague abdominal or pelvic symptoms are most often NOT caused by cancer. If they go away within a few days to a week, they may simply be intestinal disturbances due to something you ate or a viral infection.





Abdominal/pelvic discomfort or pressure





Back or leg pain





Bloating





Changes in bowel function or urinary frequency





Germ Cell Tumors Ovarian germ cell tumors develop from cells that produce the ova or eggs. Most germ cell tumors are benign, although some are cancerous and may be life-threatening. The most common germ cell malignancies are maturing teratomas, dysgerminomas and endodermal sinus tumors. Teenagers and women in their 20s are most often diagnosed with germ cell malignancies. Before combination chemotherapy was available as a treatment, the most aggressive of these tumors the GNP abnormal sinus tumor was associated with a one-year disease-free survival rate of only 10 percent to 19 percent, even though 70 percent of these tumors were diagnosed very early. Today, however, 90 percent of women with ovarian germ cell malignancies can be cured and their fertility preserved.





Treatments for Ovarian Cancer





Surgery is the preferred treatment and is often needed to diagnose ovarian cancer.





Studies have shown that surgery performed by a specialist in gynecologic oncology results in a higher cure rate.





Chemotherapy is used as after surgery to treat any remaining disease. Chemotherapy can also be used if the cancer comes back.

Xeliri And Avastin And Esophageal Cancer




Avastin is said to be a wonder drug or first treatment option which is known to inhibit the growth of blood vessel network which supplies oxygen and nutrients to malignant or cancerous tissues. The drug Avastin is found to target a protein (naturally occurring one) known as Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor or VEGF , an important angiogenesis mediator and as a result interferes with the supply of blood that is required for the tumour growth and for spreading all over the body known as metastasis. Apart from blocking the main resource for the growth of the cancerous cells, it also enhances chemotherapy delivery inside the tumor effectively. Avastin along with various other chemotherapy practices including Folfox, Xeliri, Xelox, Xeloda and Folfiri monotherapy and its benefits were explored and approved in the year 2004 in February in US and is being under study in various countries.





Avastin is considered as an innovative oncology or cancer drug which has got a positive kind of recommendation from CHMP or European committee for medicinal products for human use. The committee has recommended that bevacizumab or Avastin along with other intravenous 5 fluorouracil or folinic acid or irinotecan can be used for treatment (first line) of patients suffering from metastatic carcinoma of rectum or colon or esophageal cancer.





The recommendation was based on the information got from a study (phase III) which showed that treatment given to patients using Avastin along with chemotherapy increased their survival rates to nearly thirty percent than when compared with patients treated with chemotherapy along. Apart from this avastin enhanced the time period without the progression of the disease in patients to nearly seventy percent. Still the study on avastin is being carried out to know the possible outcomes and benefits in cancer patients along with various chemotherapies. The study is extended even to the post operative or adjuvant setting. Scientists are also investigating the possible benefits of Avastin in various other cancer types including lung cancer, breast cancer, renal cancer and pancreatic cancer.





Esophageal cancer patients who are in their stage 3 or stage 4a and stage 4b normally have poor survival rates that various therapies or treatments are tried on them. Some are meant to ease the difficulties faced by them and some are aimed at offering a better lifestyle till their dealth. Xeliri and Avastin can be tried in patients with esophageal cancer even though it might not cure them totally but to control the problem to a certain extent and sometime to know the reactions or as part of the clinical tests aimed at the improving the medication for esophageal cancer.





Natural Remedies:





There are certain natural remedies that offer a promising cure for esophageal cancer. Along with the natural remedies and a well-researched different diet pattern, a few simple adjustments to your lifestyle can make a huge difference to your efforts for prolonging the life for several years. You can increase your chances of surviving esophagus cancer now by trying these proven natural remedies discussed in http://cancernaturalremedies.com

Surviving Breast Cancer - A Husband's View




My wife has had breast cancer twice in the last 13 years and is a survivor, which I guess make me a breast cancer survivor as well. I want to try and help those who are going through this ordeal with some guidance and suggestions.First a little about us, we have been married since 1972 and are high school sweethearts. We have 4 great kids, all when we were younger and now 10 beautiful grand children. My wife is my soul mate and I am hers. Without her I am not sure what I would do or how I would survive. She is in every sense a survivor. She is a secretary and has worked a good part of her life, except some time off for child rising. I am retired military and a professional computer trainer. Neither of us smoke or drink except the occasional social drink on New Years. So as you can see we are fairly normal family now a days. Except for the fact that she had breast cancer the first time in her late 30's which is rare and again a couple years ago. Both times she had to have a partial mastectomy and radiation treatments. This time was easier to handle then the first time.What to expectI am sure each of you reading this want to know what to expect. When will it get easier? When will both of you feel normal again. What is going to happen to her and you during the treatments? I will try to explain. From the moment we found out about the breast cancer, things did change. We were both very scared and unsure what the future will hold. Would the radiation treatments work, would they be enough, what kind of scarring and disfigurement would there be. We had so many questions that we didn't know what to ask or even who. The doctors were great; they put my wife at ease and did their best to prepare her for what was going to happen. Treatments went well. In the beginning she was still able to work till probably the 3rd week or so. Then she was tired most of the time. I still remember feeling so bad, here I was suppose to be protecting her, keeping her safe and I couldn't do anything to prevent this or even lessen the suffering. Some of the medications helped a little, but she wasn't herself. I picked up on doing some of the housework, watching the kids, cooking etc. But never felt like I did enough. For her part, she stayed home after the 3rd week or so rested as much as possible. But the treatments were everyday and each time she got more tired and sore. The soreness is like a bad sunburn but for weeks it doesn't go away. I remember putting cream on her after the treatments to help ease the pain. After the radiation treatments it takes a few weeks before the sunburn disappears and a month or so before she won't be as tired. It was several months before the swelling went down, maybe a year before we could tell how much different the breast size was going to be. My wife went from a D cup to a B cup after the first surgery. It's still early yet but this time they didn't need to do remove as much during the partial mastectomy.What will happen?The doctors will probably tell you what the treatment plan is. If you get a chance go with her to these appointments. Work can wait and they should understand. If you can afford it take family medical leave and stay home with her. Radiation treatments are like a long x-ray. She will be placed in a mold to hold her body still and the x-ray will be targeted to the area of the breast cancer. This is what causes the burning. If they have to operate that is usually done first with about six week or so to heal before the treatments start. My wife was lucky in that she did not need chemical therapy. So I can not talk about those side effects. I understand they can be much worse. The x-rays kill the breast cancer cells but also damage the body and make it difficult for her to get much energy or fight off other illnesses. I remember the doctor telling us that she had to be careful because her immune system would be in shock for a while and it would be easier for her to pick up other illnesses that normally she would fight off easily. Treatments are straight forward and finite in period. Probably the easy part of the whole process. 10 weeks or so and it's all over with.What you can do to ease the sufferingThis is the hard part. Like I said before, I was supposed to protect her so now to try and redeem myself. Waiting on her hand a foot would have been nice, but I working the first time and could not take time off, someone had to bring in the money and like a lot of people we were a two income family down to one income. Mood swings will be plenty. Just try to imagine a bad sunburn for 10 weeks without let up. The constant pain she was in I could see on her face. Treatments to moisten the skin helped and we made sure to make it our time when we could talk and let each other know what we were feeling. I know this is hard for men in general, but DO IT. She needs to know you understand, you care, and you don't hold it against her. At this point be a man and talk to her. She needs you, and as much as you may not want to admit it you need her. I think talking was the one thing that helped us through this whole ordeal. If either one of us had kept to ourselves we would not have made it through.What you can do to ease your sufferingShe has a lot on her at this point in time, just the breast cancer words are enough to scare the crap out of you, then surgery, treatments, recovery, financial stress, stress on the marriage, kids, family and friends all seem to fall on her shoulders. You need to take control and remove some of this stress on her, which puts more stress on you. But hey, you're a man, you can handle it. And you're not the one with cancer.Each of us has our own way of releasing tension. For me it was sitting in a wooded area, having a good cry and talking to nature (God) although I am not an overly religious person, it helped. You need to find a support system. Family or friends that understand you have a lot of stress on you as well. Someone to take the shift with the wife so you can unwind in what ever helps you. Maybe a hard workout at the gym, going for a walk, watching a movie, going to the bar, what ever. Just make sure that she is taken care of for as long as it will take before you get back into the game. If you drink, don't take over until you are sober again. You need all of your strength to help her, not add more stress to her life at this time.Wrapping it upWell, I have rambled on long enough. Our life has been a lot stronger after the breast cancer than it ever was. We still talk to each other every night. We learned the signs of when something was wrong and initiated the conversations so that it does brew under the surface. I am happy to say WE survived, as individuals and most importantly as a couple. There are many support groups available now a days. Find one in your area before you start treatments if possible and attend together. Listen to what others have to say, and build a friendship with them. They have gone through what you will be going through and can help in many ways. With todays medical treatments, breast cancer is very survivable. My God Bless you and your spouse and watch over both of you.

Creating Health And Curing Cancer Are Not The Same!




Hello and welcome, this is for those people who have discovered that they have cancer and have a determined desire to be cancer free and healthy. This will only appeal to a minority of cancer sufferers, those that want a deeper understanding and are willing to change. This article is related to The 5 Step Cancer Healing Process, this is the essential process that one needs to undergo, in order to be healthy and healed from cancer.





The majority of people, who have been shocked to have a diagnosis of cancer given to them, are understandably overwhelmed and distraught at this turn of events. What happens now, is that to escape from the pain of fear and uncertainty that is consuming their life, they seek to take actions, that is, to do something. This I must do something is vital to alleviate the depression that would be all consuming if nothing was done. The doing something though has a terrible cost. Let me explain, doing something and taking actions, seems logically enough that you are doing them to beat cancer, survive cancer, get rid of the cancer, fight the cancer etc. You may think that the purpose of taking these actions is as above but usually the actions are taken to alleviate the uncertainty that you were plunged in to.





When you were in a state of shock following your diagnosis, your unconscious mind was flooded with the meanings, perceptions and beliefs that you held about Cancer and I suspect the conclusion you had, is that Cancer kills, Cancer is a Death sentence etc. Now it is widely accepted in the media and socially that there is no cure for cancer, and you would not know, how to cure cancer or heal cancer, so you have a death sentence and no escape. This of course is extremely depressing and fearful, for you do not want to die. Because you do not have the information that would lead you to escape the death sentence, you are in a dilemma.





Stay with me here, for I am describing what goes on at different levels of the brain and though you may disagree with some of my words, I am describing the processes that occur, usually at the unconscious level, which you will be unaware of. The dilemma is that the brain can only process and make conclusions from the information that you have. What certainties is your brain presented with when you were diagnosed, 1. You have Cancer. 2. Cancer kills (etc). It is important to be blunt with you, because at the level of brain processing, it is computer like, totally unemotional, just data processing. So the only conclusion your brain makes and accepts, is that death will occur as a result of the diagnosis. The only variable is time. Do you remember saying to yourself I am going to die, did you ask the doctor How much time do I have? The first conclusion or certainty that you recorded in your brain is that you will die. To accept this emotionally is depressing and the depression that would follow, would lead to an even more premature death than the cancer and far more painful.





So avoiding the overwhelming pain of the depression, is the reason that you take the actions, treatments, cures etc. You may feel that you are trying to survive cancer and though this is what the conscious objective may be, the unconscious will be aware of the original certainties and conclusion and so your body will conform to this. Which means, that the actions will have the affect of alleviating depression, pain and mental anguish, and not returning to health, being cancer free etc.





That is why there is a plethora of cures (they probably all work some of the time, placebos work), everyone (most) is looking for a cure, everyone is looking for certainty, everyone is basing these searches on the original beliefs that cancer kills and is a deadly disease. Cancer is not a deadly disease, cancer is a symptom, cancer is the bodys response to all the information that is relevant at the particular time.





What is cancer? is explored in The 5 Step Cancer Healing Process. The human body can be seen as an information transfer machine. By this I mean that information (data) is the governing principle. You are exactly as you are now, purely because you are the sum of all the information that pertains to you. You, your life expression, your state of health and this thing called cancer, is the result or if you like, the perfect harmonization of all that information. There is nothing wrong, there is no malfunction, there is only resonance with information. Stay with me, it may sound weird and metaphysical etc but hang in there.



The totality of You includes the state of health that you are in, this thing called cancer is in perfect harmony with the story of you (which is the totality of the information). The process is always perfect, that is, the result always equals the (totality of) information.





If you want a different result, health for instance, then you need to transform the information. Information arranges itself into patterns. It is the patterns or schemas that create results, as information is neutral/static and patterns have force and movement, they are like instructions, they produce effects. The state of affairs that you label cancer, is a result of patterns, change the patterns and you get a different result, change the patterns to ones that result in health and that is what you will get as a result.





So what information patterns create health, this is of vitally importance, for you cannot cure cancer, you can only create health or create ill health. When you have created health, then naturally you will not have cancer. If you have the purpose of curing your cancer, then: -





You will manifest resistance, for you are trying to be in disharmony with the existing information patterns.



You believe the cancer is the cause and not a symptom. Therefore the cause remains unchanged and still present.



You are divorced and ignorant of your cancer. The cancer cells are your cells responding perfectly to the information pattern. As they are your cells they partly make up the totality that is you.



You are attacking a part of yourself when you attack the cancer.



You can only create, you are not creating anything when you attempt to cure cancer, you are simply fighting shadows.



You may say that when I cure cancer, then I will be healthy this seems logical but the bodys self healing system is the only system that can heal you. This is a totally unconscious process and at this deep level, curing cancer simply does not compute, for how can it cure something that is already operating perfectly, there is nothing to cure. It will simply keep the status quo; there is nothing new to create.





Back to what information patterns create health;-





Most importantly, there has to be a reason for changing patterns, you may say that I dont want to die, sometimes this can create enough impetus to change but usually it does not create a reason to change patterns and be healthy, because it is only stating the status quo, you also didnt want to die before you knew you had cancer. It doesnt necessarily lead anywhere. Are you happy to have a poor quality of life, ill health and pain etc, as long as you dont die?





So what reason have you to be healthy? Are you surprised by your response or lack of response, to this question? So create a reason, a massive one, one that compels and motivates you, one that forces you to break out of that cocoon that is surrounding you. Discover a reason and a purpose for living and living Well! And then decide to go for it! 100%.



Healthy mind, emotions, beliefs, thoughts and attitude. This is a biggie, you have to get rid of your emotional baggage, your self destructive thoughts, emotional stress etc. This is an absolute essential component and where the majority of information needs to be transformed. The 5 Step Cancer Healing Process on my website explores in depth this area.



Healthy fresh organic food, the more man has interfered with it, the more carcinogenic information in the form of toxins there is.



Unpolluted environment.



Minimal stress in daily living.





If you have these health creating patterns, then the cause of this state that you find yourself in, which includes cancer, will be eliminated and there will be no reason to have cancer. The cancer cells will return to normal cells and you will be in harmony with the new information pattern.
