I read a fictional series (about the Amish, no less!) of books written by Beverly Lewis, in which one of the characters underwent treatment for cancer at a holistic cancer treatment center. I was fascinated!

And now the ways to prevent cancer:

Eat Better:

Years ago when cancer was rare, people depended on wild food, fresh fruits and vegetables that they grew for a large portion of their diet. These foods contained living enzymes and nutrition. Today our food comes from the nearest drive-thru or a box off a shelf, which contains almost no nutrition.

Cleanse:

the average person has a very serious need to detox on a regular basis. It is said that the average person carries 10 lbs. of waste in their bodies!

Exercise: One style recommended:

Rebounding is considered to possibly be the best exercise for rejuvenating the lymph system. Rebounding is simply jumping on a mini-trampoline. This exercise not only increases the lymph flow, it also strengthens the immune system and gives more oxygen to the blood. It is recommended to rebound 10-15 minutes a day.

Herbs and Supplements in the diet:

Flax

Coconut Oil

Red Raspberry Leaf

Nettle

Alfalfa

Red Clover

Green Tea

Elderberries

Indian Gooseberry/Amalaki

Cancer has always existed...It's just more recognized now. People actually live with/survive it , and there is less stigma, so we talk about it more.

And yeah, all of those things can help prevent cancer, but she might want to check into why survival rates have improved dramatically in the past 50 years of so. Hint; evil modern medicine.

Yes, of course. There was that magical period, 'Years ago', when everything was fine and no-one ever got sick. :roll: (There needs to be a face that represents having used too many eye-roll faces).

ETA: anecdote: my grandmother's ex died of cancer when he was in his 70s, but this was only because modern medical intervention helped him to survive a very serious case of TB when he was in his 30s.

Everytime I see this bullshit, I want to send the person here (well, after I shake them and/or slap them upside the head):

http://www.quackwatch.com/00AboutQuackw ... tseek.html

but I know most have their minds made up and won't listen.

I've dealt with cancer more than I ever wanted to over the past 10 years, both my own and 3 other family members who were diagnoses with different forms of cancer. It seems like every time somebody mentions cancer, all these people pop up recommending "alternative" treatments ranging from overpriced "holistic" treatment centers to "natural" remedies, most of which do not work at all and often make things worse, especially when a person is convinced to skip or delay conventional treatments in favor of them.

I looked up a ton of these and even tried a few when I had leukemia, everything from vitamin C to apricot pits to special diets, cleanses, soaks, etc. Guess what actually worked and improved by test numbers? An FDA-approved chemotherapy drug that is now a pretty standard treatment for CML. Same deal for my dad - people suggested alternative stuff, he said fuck that and started chemo and radiation ASAP, and is now doing great. My cousin was sucked into one of these alternative centers in Mexico that was kicked out of the US for being frauds/quacks - she died from a cancer with a 75+% survival rate while her parents paid several thousand dollars for "treatment" that was mostly vitamins and laxatives.

Even mainstream cancer specialists today will tell you that diet and exercise can play a role in cancer prevention. That's not "alternative". Cancer, however, is an umbrella term for many different diseases, many of which have different causes. A diet full of fruits and veggies can help, but it won't prevent all cancers.

I've seen several women around me go through hellish breast cancer treatments...and still be alive today. I also had a dear client who decided to give up the chemo and go with an alternative treatment. She passed away within a year of diagnosis.

Shakig my head... An acquaintance of mine DIED a week ago from breast cancer that she tried to cure by juicing various organic vegetables and doing coffee enemas instead of chemo.

Well, there are all kinds of quackery in the world. The internet must made it easier for foolish and ignorant people to trade information. It's funny how quacks always act like exercise and healthy diet is some new discovery they uncovered and ignored by medical doctors. Please note, healthy eating and exercise is not an "alternative" to modern medical science. It's a way of life that decreases your chance of disease but does not mitigate it completely. Sometimes, you lose the lottery and get sick despite the healthy lifestyle. Then you go see a doctor. In any case, if you are sick with cancer, exercise and fresh veggies will not cure you.

Ugh, as others have said, cancer was never rare. We just have better knowledge of it, as well as different names than they used to have. My great-great grandmother died of breast cancer in the 1930s. They had no treatment and just sent her home to die. Several great grandparents died of leukemia in the 1960s, without much of a change in treatment, but better pain management. One of my grandmothers ultimately died of breast cancer, but it was a relapse, and unlike the first mentioned ancestor, she had treatments that gave her about 8 healthy years before a relapse at 92.

One of my guilty pleasures is reading GAPS and Weston A Price oriented blogs. I realize that I need to step back and take a break when I start thinking that maybe it will solve my health issues. (I know some people who think that if I just followed that diet I'd be fine). But then I remember that I am working with real medical doctors and I'll stick with actual scientific practice.

My mother grew up quite poor in the Medeteranean and continued to follow the "Medeteranean Diet" in adulthood, even though in her case it was just what she knew and liked. She has always excercised and is in a normal weight range. Guess what? She got cancer anyway. Hustled herself right into the standard allopathic treatments, and she lives to follow the Med diet all these years later.

The only thing I am sure of is that if she had decided to treat her cancer with diet, prayer, and elderberries is that she would be quite dead.

I read a fictional series (about the British, no less!) of books written by C.S. Lewis, in which one of the characters steps through a wardrobe into another land. That doesn't mean I'm going to start wandering through every random closet I find. What part of "fictional" did she miss?

I'd also point out that many people died of more common illnesses before they can get cancer. TB, typhoid, small pox were all common before modern medicine. They hit the young before people can grow old enough to get breast cancer and colon cancer. Then there's the lack of screening tools to diagnose cancer. You think the ancient Romans knew a person died of pancreatic cancer? More likely they'd just note the person was ill and withered away. I bet you as life spans increase and we get better with diagnosing diseases, we will hear more of people afflicted with the disease. And I'm sure these quacks will be out selling their wares and talking about the "epidemic" of cancers out there.

I think of "natural" cancer cures and rape victim blaming as the same. They're both done to make the speaker feel better about their own chances with cancer/rape, and they're both detrimental to cancer and rape victims.

I'm going to be the voice on dissent here and agree with AuthenticSimplicity. People didn't used to get cancer like they do now. They just mysteriously dropped dead after displaying various unrelated symptoms and autopsies performed indicated nothing at all like tumors or growths or malignancies. And "olden times" people were nice simple folk who barely had society and didn't invent anything, like the wheel or agriculture or political systems or the industrial revelution.

By the way, should I maybe start a thread in Chatter about my beautiful trip to Rand McNally? It's lovely here, except when the hamburgers eat the people.

:shakes head: if you want to juice and fast your way back to health, at least combine it with the chemo. That way, when the juice cures you, your doctor will still have felt useful. It's only polite.

If you've got a bad gene or a mutated cell no amount of herbal laxatives will fix it.

I can understand changing to a very healthy diet when undergoing chemo to give your body a bit more fight & maybe trying some supplements if your doctors says you can. But if you really think that a whole lot of unproven treatments are going to work better than treatments (real) doctors & scientists have devoted their lives to developing, you are MAD!

"Rebounding?" A fucking mini trampoline undoes the genetic mutation that starts the tumour??

Drag your mini tramp into a major oncology center and pitch your woo, AS. Really. I wanna know how far you get.

People who talk about crap like that are probably the same people who act like anyone who dies of cancer just didn't fight enough, or didn't pray hard enough. Oh, if only you'd jumped on the trampoline more while drinking carrot juice! Idiots.

One of my best friends is a medical doctor and did a lot of research on the effect of green tea extract on cancer cells. She thinks there could be a future possibility to treat cancer there. She'll tell anyone who asks that drinking green tea every day is probably good for your health. But when my mom got breast cancer, she was the first one to ask about which chemo she was getting because right now, it's just the best way to treat tumors.

On one side of my family they drink, eat a lot of cake, prefer to sit rather than run, the men smoke pipes and.... they tend to live well into their late 80s and some get to 90+. They're a lucky bunch. No cancer to be found (touch wood). I don't know, is this an endorsement of cake, sherry and sloth?

All of this curing and preventing cancer stuff is just another way for people to prove that they're in control of their lives. Fair enough if you're not a fundie. But if you are, shouldn't you focus on honouring the body god gave you by eating a sensible diet, drinking in moderation and taking regular exercise rather than trying to thwart whatever the big guy's got in store for you health-wise.

The sad thing is, I know the book series she's talking about. It's pretty snark-worthy, if anyone's interested... :lol:

But seriously, I know someone like this IRL. Claims that a raw food diet cured her eleventy billion illnesses. It's like, "No, you're in denial and you stopped taking your medication because of it."

This. Genetics aren't fair. My grandmother is turning 91, despite living for years on a diet of cigarettes, Cokes and double-doubles.

As eating an all-natural diet and walking everywhere never protected our ancestors against smallpox, TB and death in childbirth why the hell would you jump to the conclusion they're going to protect you against cancer anyway?

(OK I get that leading a vaguely healthy life will probably put you in the best position for fighting off whatever comes your way but still)

My cousin is a newly minted docter. A few years ago, early in her residency, she saw a patient who was within 24 hours of death from breast cancer. She (the patient) had been seeing a naturopath for a year or two. She had a large, painful, smelly, festering wound in her breast and the naturopath had told her it was just the toxins coming out of her body, as it got worse.

It was one of the most disturbing visits my cousin had, in her residency.

I don't understand the fascination with pooping. The thought of people truly believing that laxatives will help cure cancer makes me sad. Chemo and radiation saved my grandfather from throat cancer in his 70's. Years later, he developed lung cancer, and again- chemo and radiation gave him another year of life in pretty good health. He did pass away at 86 when thelung cancer came back the next year, but he was able to live a good, long life in relative comfort despite 3 rounds with cancer. All due to the "evil" modern medicine. smh...

Oh my God, that's horrifying. :shock: I didn't really know a lot about the whole segment of society that believes in naturopathy, body cleanses, the evils of "Big Pharma" etc, until I started listening to Skeptoid podcasts (does anyone else here listen to those? I'm a big fan). Now, though, whenever a fb friend posts about some "amazing natural cure" or how "government and big pharma are surpressing a miracle cancer cure found in Canada" - that one was just posted today - I quickly comment with an article from snopes or something. Woo-woo "science" is not the answer!
