Did You Know...

My cancer (multiple myeloma) is continuing to decrease, in the sense that the percentage of cancer cells to normal cells continue to decrease instead of the usual progression for this type of cancer--this without any normal medical treatment but using proper diet and excercise. As I have mentioned esewhere, an alkaline environment is hostile to cancer cells while an acidic environment is not.  My diet has shifted me to a alkaline level (pH level) of 7 sometimes. Ideally I should at least have an alkaline level of pH 7.2-7.4. Most of the time I have a pH level that is in the pH 6+ which is acidic. While this is fairly normal first thing in the morning this is not good during the day.

I have recently bought an ionizer and I am drinking water that is pH 7-9 depending of the level I choose. For clean AND healthy, energized water this link will give you what we just bought—in this case, not the most expensive and not the cheapest ionizer either (The Neptune).   Water Ionizers,

I recently got an email from a woman in Japan (American, I assume) who, like me, is resisting the nromal medical treatments. I have suggested that she consider shifting to alkaline water as part of the healing process.

I belong to a Multiple Myeloma support group on the Internet and I am troubled by the messages people put ont the site. The possible physical side effects of the treatments they are receiving.that people are bring up on the site:

For Thalidomite:Version, possible servious side effects: chest pain, sudden shortness of breath, coughing up blood; pain or swelling in your arm, thigh, or calf; easy bruising, unusual bleeding or weakness; slow heartbeats, shallow breathing; feeling light-headed, fainting; fever, chills, body aches, flu symptoms; a red, blistering, peeling skin rash; red, raised skin rash (especially if you also have fever, fast heart rate, and dizziness or fainting); numbness, burning, pain, or tingly feeling.

For Revlimid, some possible side effects: Swelling in the arms and legs; pain in the back, arms and legs, and muscles and breathing problems

For Velcade, less serious side effects may include: nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation; headache, weakness; blurred vision; sleep problems (insomnia); cough or breathing problems; or skin irritation where the medicine was injected. MORE SERIOUS side effects may include: new or worsening nerve problems such as numbness, burning, pain, or tingly feeling; feeling light-headed, fainting; black, bloody, or tarry stools; vomit that looks like blood or coffee grounds; easy bruising or bleeding, unusual weakness; fever, chills, body aches, flu symptoms; feeling short of breath, even with mild exertion; urinating more or less than usual; or nausea, stomach pain, low fever, loss of appetite, dark urine, clay-colored stools, jaundice (yellowing of the skin or eyes).

I try to eat plenty of raw fruits and vegetables. Less fruits because I am diabetic. This way I get plenty of nutrients without a lot of calories intake. It is interesting to me that the medical community is emphasizing the eating of more fruits and vegetables as a way of preventing cancer and some studies suggest that long life comes with moderation in eating of meat.

I tend to have salad but also steamed and stir-fried vegetables and vegetable soups. I also have a few almonds several times a day when I can and, of course I drink a lot of vegetable juice: carrot as one drink and a combination of spinach, parsley, celery, kale and chard as another.

I try to have both raw and cooked. Cooked food is not unhealthy if it is done right. If the food is is baked at high temperatures or fried or barbecued—my old favorites—then carcinogenic compounds are formed and the high heat destroys much of the nutrients.

I have learned that little nutrients are lost when making a soup, for example, and some nutrients are improved, in the sense of being more absorbable and digested more easily. Beans are a part of my diet and must be cooked to be eaten—again, not using high heat in preparation.

I mentioned that I eat almonds. We don’t roast any nuts but rather we dehydrate them, keeping the temperature below 105 degrees F so the enzymes are still “live.” More on this on the website!

In conclusion, I am trying to emphsize raw foods, especially salads but I also have stir-fried and steamed. On the siteI will present more on good things like open-face sandwiches, pita bread and the good use of such raw stuff as tomatoes, avocado and sprouts.

Even though I have chosen this path to combat my cancer, I continue to see my oncologist and primary health physician on a quarterly basis and regularly have lab work to check on my progress--or lack of progress.
