TURMERIC, an ingredient in CURRY POWDER, INDUCES CANCER CELL DEATH and protects our cells against DNA damage. Eat foods rich in turmeric. Eliminate your cancer risk!! Healthy can taste good too!! |
MUSHROOMS accelerate immune system function and help ward off disease. The medicinal mushrooms, Reishi, Shitake, and Maitake are the best!! Gourmet mushrooms are also good! Visit my page at http://sites.netscape.net/mrsjoguesst/mushroomsgalore for information on their healing properties. |
CRUCIFEROUS VEGETABLES such as Cabbage, Broccoli, and Cauliflower and Brussels Sprouts are loaded with Phytochemicals that inhibit cancer growth! |
COLD-WATER FISH are high in the Omega-3s. Omega-3s, commonly referred to as Essential Fatty Acids protect our bodies from the ravages of disease. Because it stops prostaglandins from going into dangerous overdrive, fish oil helps alleviate illnesses that are triggered by the prostaglandins. See footnote* |
Processed Foods are unusually high in saturated fat!. When you're shopping be sure to check out all your labels. If you happen to notice anything with "Hydrogenated" fat, strike it from your list!! . The transfats are not "foods" but are "ARTIFICIAL" fats created in the lab!! Transfats are at the root of many heart problems,cancer autoimmune disease!! I repeat...These are NOT NATURAL FOODS! Hydrogenated "Transfats," as they are called, are prevalent in crackers, chips, breads, cookies, cake,donuts and pizza! Dr. Walter Willett of the Harvard School of Health warns about the imminent dangers of transfat consumption...linking them to the majority of all heart attacks!! Eliminate margarine, including "Benecol" if you want fluid arteries!! In Ads, Benecol is listed as a healthy fat, but It has all the "Plastic Fats" present in other Margarines!!! Real Butter is much safer... when used in moderation. For more info visit: |
For EXTRA-HEALTHY MEALS, cook with Extra-Virgin Olive Oil! Olive oil cantains more "good" fat per tablespoon than any other cooking or salad oil-including canola oil! Note: Remember to keep the heat down when cooking with this oil. Go low and slow! A study at Stanford Medical School shows that Polyphenols in olive oil lower blood pressure. **See footnote Most vegetable oils increase "bad" fats and cause a decrease in "good" fats. Olive oil does not saturate your foods and will not destroy "good" fats within your body.*** |
Avoid Foods cooked In Oils Kept at high temperatures. Oils kept at high temperatures for extended periods of time are known carcinogens!! Fried foods contribute to your cancer risk! Visit www. Healthy Choice for more information! |
Avoid SALTY SNACKS as much as possible. A little iodized table salt sprinkled in moderation is beneficial! Iodine contributes to glandular health! For more information on sodium elimination and High Blood Pressure management visit Hypertension.html |
DO NOT EAT Foods with Monosodium Glutamate (Msg).MSG is a commonly used flavor enhancer. It is not a seasoning but a chemical which "enhances" taste by exciting and increasing the sensitivity of taste buds. MSG affects you, not your food! Msg tricks your brain into thinking the food you are eating tastes good. Manufacturers can use inferior ingredients and thus make the product seem tastier! Inferior products and higher profits prevail at the expense of consumer health! MSG intolerance is not an allergic reaction, but a powerful drug reaction. Common reactions: Migraines,nausea and vomiting,irritable bowel syndrome,asthma attacks,shortness of breath, anxiety or panic attacks,heart palpitations,partial paralysis, balance difficulties, mental confusion, moodswings,behavioral disorders(esp. in children), skin rashes, mouth lesions, depression, and more. |

INCLUDE A FEW EGGS in your diet every week! Eggs are very high in selenium, a trace mineral found to induce cancer cell death! Don't worry about the cholesterol.content..there is little to none in a boiled egg. Frying or scrambling in polyunsaturated oils will radically increase their cholesterol content. Cook your eggs in Olive Oil and get the extra health benefits! Visit Hypertension for more information. |
GRAINS, NUTS and SEEDS are rich in SELENIUM! The mineral Selenium INDUCES CANCER CELL DEATH!. 400 to 500 mcg daily has been used effectively to combat the spread of cancer or 200 mcg. for prevention. Nuts, Grains and Seeds are high in Mineral Content! Without sufficient Minerals your body cannot absorb Vitamins properly! |
Excitotoxins: The Taste That Kills... Excitotoxin: A substance added to foods and beverages that literally stimulates neurons to death, causing brain damage of varying degrees! These substances can be found in ingredients such as monosodium glutamate, aspartame(NUTRASWEET),aspartic acid, cysteine, and hydrolyzed protein. Excitotoxins: The Taste That kills, by Dr. Russell Blaylock, describes what excitotoxins are, where they are found, and how they react in the body. Dr. Blaylock, a board certified neurosurgeon, presents the latest research findings to demostrate how exposure to excitotoxins will damage nerve cells in the brain. The use of aspartame, hydrolyzed vegetable protein, and monosodium glutamate in prepared foods and beverages continues to increase on a yearly basis. These substances were approved by the FDA only after repeated and intensive effort by drug company lobbyists. The FDA receives hundreds of complaints each year regarding it's use.

DRINK 8 or more full glasses of water daily. This can be supplemented by various herbal teas. Getting your daily fluid requirement is vital. Proper fluid intake is imperative for healthy cells and fluid arteries! |
FISH is high in Omega-3s. Ordinarily it is a very healthy snack! But it is wise to avoid certain shellfish. They are more prone to absorb the chemical pollutants from toxic municpal waters! Eat ALASKAN! Salmon is the best because it is a cold-water fish! |
For your convenience I am listing some popular brands that do not contain the deadly hydrogenated fats. There are only a few that I am aware of... eat organic and eliminate the transfats!! Hain's and Health Valley are two brands that are transfat free. Just remember that transfat comsumption ALTERS the way CELL membranes are CONSTRUCTED and IS LINKED to the development of most forms of CANCER! (Cancer is the proliferation of abnormal cells within the body). |
Increase the use of CULINARY HERBS in all your cooking. Even the common herbs such as Thyme,Sage and Basil,Turmeric, Cumin and others have priceless medicinal properties! I also will add here, without being facetious, that there are undoubtedly more nutrients in the herbs as there is in the food. Visit Missing Nutrients for more information. |
BE SURE TO TAKE a VITAMIN A and D supplement. Vitamin D is the gateway vitamin!! No other nutrients can be used effectively if you are lacking in vitamin D!... D is only found in fish oils and sunshine. You need at least 20 minutes of sun daily. Minimum exposure will not increase your skin cancer risk |
CO-Q10 or Coenzyme Q-10 supplements have been used effectively to COMBAT CANCER! 300 mgs daily for cancer patients!! I specifically know of instances where cancer has been sent into remission with high dosages of CO-Q10 and Coenzyme Q-10. The COQ10 was given to combat heart disease...and the cancer disappeared as well as the heart problems! |
HONEY: The name of this familiar and time-tested remedy comes from Ancient Hebrew and means "enchant." Long used as a culinary sweetener, honey is valued for its many healing properties as well! Treatment with honey is referred to as apitherapy and includes replenishing energy, enhancing physical stamina and strengthening those weakened by illness. Honey can calm the mind and promote rejuvenating sleep. Bees act as a biological filter. They die if they come into contact with toxins and thus do not bring pollutants into the hive!! |
TOMATOES are so important because of the Lycopene they contain but many of us are too busy to actually create our own tomato sauce. At this point I would really like to recommend Paul Newmans (Newman's Own) organic pasta sauces as a healthy alternative to home cooked varieties. They contain no harmful additives or preservatives...and even use many helpful ingredients such as olive oil, herbs and spices. Try his sockarooni sauce for chili. Your family will love it! |
Studies have shown that diets high in animal protein will result in negative calcium... transferring calcium from bones into soft tissue, becoming a contributing factor in Osteoporosis!! A calcium deficiency makes it difficult for the other vitamins and minerals to be absorbed. Calcium is the gatekeeper! |
**In the study at Stanford,scientists examined 76 middle aged men with HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE and found that three tablespoons of olive oil a day could lower systolic pressure by nine points and diastolic pressure by six points!

Don't Ingest "FRANKENFOODS!." Just in case you hadn't heard, these foods are inserted with "Genetically Modified Organisms.". The majority of the Corn, Soy, Canola and Tomatoes have the pesticide inserted genes in them now!! Furthermore...GMOs DO NOT require labeling in this country!! Fast food restaurants widely utilize these products in their foods. European nations refuse to export grains from the States and are currently getting their grains from South American countries because Kellogg's, Gen. Mills utilize Bio-tech corn in their products. The American Public has not been informed enough to make intelligent choices! A VERY good reason to use organic!!! Visit the Greenpeace site at for more information. |
Eliminate refined SUGAR AND CAFFEINE! They accelerateTUMOR FORMATION and growth! Visit: SugarBlues.html |
* SCIENTISTS BELIEVE... that the PROMOTION of CANCER CELLS is somehow... REGULATED by PROSTAGLANDINS. Animal studies show that squelching the overproduction of these hormone-like substances can reduce breast, pancreas, lung, prostate and colon cancer. In humans, it's been observed that... Japanese and Eskimo women who have HIGH SEAFOOD DIETS also have very LOW RATES of breast cancer!! See Womantowoman.html. |
No other generation has breathed the pollution that we do. No other generation has eaten the foods with the pesticide and herbicide levels that we do! Though it was banned in the late 1970's the pesticide, DDT has permeated the food chain and detectable levels are found throughout our entire population. Our immune systems are under daily attack! An imbalance can lead to chronic fatigue syndrome, infections, autoimmune diseases and cancer which represents the ultimate failure of the immune system. Our immune system is a barrier of protection, but specific elements have now been identified that are needed daily to keep it strong!! |
***Replacing saturated fats in the diet with Olive Oil leads to a reduction of "bad" cholesterol (whereas replacement with polyunsaturated vegetable oils lowers good cholesterol as well," says Andrew Weil, author of the best-seller, "Spontaneous Healing." |
