Cancer
AFTER YEARS OF TELLING PEOPLE CHEMOTHERAPY IS THE ONLY WAY TO TRY AND
ELIMINATE CANCER, JOHNS HOPKINS IS FINALLY STARTING TO TELL YOU THERE IS AN
ALTERNATIVE WAY …
1. Every person has cancer cells in the body. These cancer cells do not show up in the standard
tests until they have multiplied to a few billion. When doctors tell cancer patients that there are
no more cancer cells in their bodies after treatment, it just means the tests are unable to detect
the cancer cells because they have not reached the detectable size.
2. Cancer cells occur between 6 to more than 10 times in a person’s lifetime.
3. When the person’s immune system is strong the cancer cells will be destroyed and prevented
from multiplying and forming tumors.

4. When a person has cancer it indicates the person has multiple nutritional deficiencies. These
could be due to genetic, environmental, food and lifestyle factors.
5. To overcome the multiple nutritional deficiencies, changing diet and including supplements
will strengthen the immune system.
6. Chemotherapy involves poisoning the rapidly-growing cancer cells and also destroys
rapidly-growing healthy cells in the bone marrow, gastro-intestinal tract etc, and can cause
organ damage, like liver, kidneys, heart, lungs etc.
7. Radiation while destroying cancer cells also burns, scars and damages healthy cells, tissues
and organs.
8. Initial treatment with chemotherapy and radiation will often reduce tumor size. However
prolonged use of chemotherapy and radiation do not result in more tumor destruction.
9. When the body has too much toxic burden from chemotherapy and radiation the immune
system is either compromised or destroyed, hence the person can succumb to various kinds of
infections and complications.
10. Chemotherapy and radiation can cause cancer cells to mutate and become resistant and
difficult to destroy. Surgery can also cause cancer cells to spread to other sites.
11. An effective way to battle cancer is to STARVE the cancer cells by not feeding it with foods
it needs to multiple.
What cancer cells feed on:
a. Sugar is a cancer-feeder. By cutting off sugar it cuts off one important food supply to the
cancer cells. Note: Sugar substitutes like NutraSweet, Equal, Spoonful, etc are made with
Aspartame and it is harmful. A better natural substitute would be Manuka honey or molasses
but only in very small amounts. Table salt has a chemical added to make it white in colour.
Better alternative is Bragg’s aminos or sea salt.
b. Milk causes the body to produce mucus, especially in the gastro-intestinal tract. Cancer
feeds on mucus. By cutting off milk and substituting with unsweetened soy milk, cancer cells
will starved.
c. Cancer cells thrive in an acid environment. A meat-based diet is acidic and it is best to eat
fish, and a little chicken rather than beef or pork. Meat also contains livestock antibiotics,
growth hormones and parasites, which are all harmful, especially to people with cancer.
d. A diet made of 80% fresh vegetables and juice, whole grains, seeds, nuts and a little fruits
help put the body into an alkaline environment. About 20% can be from cooked food including
beans. Fresh vegetable juices provide live enzymes that are easily absorbed and reach down to
cellular levels within 15 minutes t o nourish and enhance growth of healthy cells.
To obtain live enzymes for building healthy cells try and drink fresh vegetable juice (most
vegetables including bean sprouts) and eat some raw vegetables 2 or 3 times a day. Enzymes
are destroyed at temperatures of 104 degrees F (40 degrees C).
e. Avoid coffee, tea, and chocolate, which have high caffeine. Green tea is a better alternative
and has cancer-fighting properties. Water–best to drink purified water, or filtered, to avoid
Health by tengkp http://healthmatter.wordpress.com/

sore throat remedies
known toxins and heavy metals in tap water. Distilled water is acidic, avoid it.
12. Meat protein is difficult to digest and requires a lot of digestive enzymes. Undigested meat
remaining in the intestines will become putrified and leads to more toxic buildup.
13. Cancer cell walls have a tough protein covering. By refraining from or eating less meat it
frees more enzymes to attack the protein walls of cancer cells and allows the body’s killer cells
to destroy the cancer cells.
14. Some supplements build up the immune system (IP6, Flor-ssence, Essiac, anti-oxidants,
vitamins, minerals, EFAs etc.) to enable the body’s own killer cells to destroy cancer cells.
Other supplements like vitamin E are known to cause apoptosis, or programmed cell death, the
body’s normal method of disposing of damaged, unwanted, or unneeded cells.
15. Cancer is a disease of the mind, body, and spirit. A proactive and positive spirit will help
the cancer warrior be a survivor.
Anger, unforgiving and bitterness put the body into a stressful and acidic environment. Learn
to have a loving and forgiving spirit. Learn to relax and enjoy life.
16. Cancer cells cannot thrive in an oxygenated environment. Exercising daily, and deep
breathing help to get more oxygen down to the cellular level. Oxygen therapy is another means
employed to destroy cancer cells.
(PLEASE FORWARD IT TO PEOPLE YOU CARE ABOUT)

Sore Throat Remedy
April 4, 2010 by tengkp
An Amazing Sore Throat Remedy
sore throat painThis simple home remedy has worked 100% of the time for anyone that has tried it. Instead of
suffering with a sore throat for a week or more, you can drive it away immediately, sometimes in less than a
day. However, this remedy is not medical advice; it is a shared experience that really works! This site is not for
profit; its aim is simply to help people cure their sore throats.
The most common sore throat remedies for sore throat are usually over-the-counter sprays, lozenges and
pastilles that are ineffective and smelly. The most common doctor-prescribed remedies are antibiotics, which
take time to obtain, cost money and can have many negative side effects.
Most often, people waste time waiting while trying to figure out whether or not they really have a sore throat.
By the time they realize they do have a sore throat, it’s usually to the point that they are already suffering from
serious sore throat pain, can barely speak, swallow or even eat.
This remedy is salt, and not just about gargling saltwater, it is actually about using common table salt as it is.
What you have to do is: tilt your head backwards and shake a little bit of salt straight into the back of your
throat. Make sure you shake it straight into your throat, onto the base of your tongue and not over the
middle or the tip your tongue (this way you will not suffer from any unpleasant taste). After that, do not swallow your saliva, just let the salt dissolve right there
on the back of your throat, letting the salt stay there for as long as you possibly can. If you’re using a salt shaker, shake 2 to 6 times dependinghow bad your sore
throat is. If you’re using a fast food style paper saltshaker, you should shake about 1/4 of the packet directly into your throat.
Also highly suggested, is to shake an even larger amount of salt into your throat right
before you go to sleep for the night. During your sleep, without food or drink, bacteria
thrive without any interruption to incubation and growth. Therefore, using salt while
you are asleep can be extremely effective. Keep a salt shaker near your bed. If you
wake up in the middle of the night feeling sore, you can shake some more salt into your
throat.Salt is a very old remedy that kills bacteria. In the old days theytraditionally used
salt to preserve meat and fish. Why? Because salt attracts water and attacks the

salt throat remedy
bacteria cell walls, causing the bacteria to dehydrate and self-destruct in the process.
If your sore throat is really severe you can use salt as often as every 30 minutes. Use it
as soon as you feel the first symptoms of a sore throat and the earlier you use it, the
faster you’ll get rid of that sore throat.
Salt is available nearly everywhere. You can stop in to any
fast food place on any street and grab some. Don’t wait
around trying to figure out whether or not your sore throat
is serious. Instead you can use this quick sore throat cure.
As soon as you feel the first signs of a sore throat, use the salt
immediately. Gargling salt water is
not nearly as effective since the
concentration of salt is not high
enough to take care of the problem.
Also, gargling water requires a cup
of water and the time to dissolve the
salt in it, yet more inconvenience
that makes you wait for relief.
Not all sore throats are the result of
a bacteria infection. Sometimes the
cause is a virus, commonly known as
influenza virus. Many times your
sore throat starts as a viral infection
which develops into a bacterial infection. Salt is intended to fight only the bacteria, not the virus. Therefore salt might not be totally effective if you are suffering
from a viral throat infection. Nevertheless, you really have nothing to lose by using salt. According to experience, salt can be extremely effective in most all
cases, depending on the cause of your sore throat.
A sore throat is also often the first stage of a common cold, also known as the Flu. First to arrive is the sore throat, followed by nasal congestion and coughing. If
you can take care of it fast, you won’t wear down your immune system fighting the sore throat and your immune system has more energy to fight the other cold
symptoms. Therefore, using salt could also shorten the total duration of suffering from the common cold.
Everybody suffers from a sore throat every year. If you find this advice to be useful – feel free to share it with your friends – and send them a link to this site.

Calcium Supplements Do NOT Build Strong Bones
April 4, 2010 by tengkp
Calcium Supplements Do NOT Build Strong Bones
Don’t waste your money on calcium supplements.
If you’re taking them hoping to build strong bones and avoid osteoporosis you’ll be let down
on both fronts.
Doctors and drug companies push the idea that the best way to treat and prevent osteoporosis
is by taking lots of calcium. This simply isn’t true. Osteoporosis isn’t caused by a lack of
Health by tengkp http://healthmatter.wordpress.com/

calcium.
Studies come to the same conclusion: calcium intake does not prevent fractures due to bone
loss.
The Harvard Nurses’ Study is one of the most complete and well-conducted studies in
science.. The study followed 77,761 nurses. For 12 years, researchers examined the association
between dietary calcium and bone fractures.
Results showed there was no protection from fractures with any dose of calcium intake.
Nurses who had the highest calcium intakes actually had an increased risk of bone fracture.
An Australian study confirms the result of the Harvard Nurses’ Study. This study also looked
at the association between calcium and fracture risk. The study looked at lifetime calcium
consumption in over 400 elderly participants. The study concluded that calcium consumption
in early adulthood actually increased the risk of bone fractures as the person
aged.2
Doctors in the UK found that calcium and vitamin D did not prevent fractures.3 Their
two-year study showed that neither calcium nor vitamin D lowered the number of fractures in
women over age seventy.
So, what controls bone loss? Hormones and exercise.
Bone building is hormonal. In women, estrogens are the main regulators of bone health and
breakdown. Progesterone controls the rate of new bone deposition. But the most powerful bone
builder in both men and women is testosterone. Testosterone is central for achieving
maximal bone mass and strength
Taking calcium supplements will give you a short-term boost in bone density, but that’s it.
Over time, your hormones will work against the extra calcium and actually leave your bones
more brittle than before.
Maintaining healthy levels of hormones in your body is one way to keep your bones
strong. There is an easy and inexpensive hormone precursor shown to improve the levels of
other sex hormones. It’s called DHEA (Dehydroepiandrosterone). It is involved in the
manufacturing of most major sex hormones in the body, like estrogen and testosterone.
DHEA treatments are becoming more common.
You can get it over the counter but I don’t advise anyone take DHEA without having their
blood levels checked. You will have to ask your doctor to measure it.
Physical inactivity will also lead to weakening of your bones. Your bones need to bear weight
in order to become strong. When you do weight bearing activities, you are telling your bones
that they must become strong in order to continue these activities. You do this by encouraging
them to push more weight. Challenging your muscles and bones with weight bearing exercises
is crucial. Walking, cycling, weight training or playing tennis or golf will help.

In spite of what you hear on TV, calcium supplements have little to do with the strength of
your bones. If you want strong bones for life, here are six things you can do right now:
Exercise: The best to increase bone density and reduce fractures is body weight exercises (like
calisthenics) and resistance training. Make a habit of doing these exercises two or three times a
week. Thirty minutes of walking a day will lower your risk of fracture by 30
percent.
When you exercise, your muscles pull on your bones. This pressure creates a challenge that
your body responds to by increasing bone density. This will ensure that you stay mobile and
independent.
Skip calcium supplements: Get your calcium in your diet. Eat a variety of small fish, dark,
leafy green vegetables, almonds and cashews, or dairy products like milk, cheese, and yogurt.
You should be aiming for
about 400 mg per day.
Take a vitamin D supplement: I recommend 400 IU per day. It helps your body absorb
calcium and maintain bone density. Without vitamin D, calcium supplements are worthless.
The best source of vitamin D is the sun – 10 to 15 minutes of exposure a day should be enough.
During the winter, take cod liver oil. It’s by far the best supplemental source of vitamin D.
Eat your greens: Vitamin K found in dark leafy greens regulates calcium while stabilizing
bones in addition to regulating blood clotting. Eat at least one serving of green vegetables like
spinach, kale, collard greens, mustard greens, Brussels sprouts or broccoli every day. One
study found people eating just 0.1 milligrams of vitamin K daily (about one large serving of
greens) were 30% less likely to break their hips than people who ate less than that amount.
Another university study showed that vegetables and herbs improve your bone metabolism.
Researchers found that rats that missed out on their veggies had much lower bone
density.
Another showed that fruits and vegetables increase your bone density. The same study found
that dairy products did nothing.
Eat foods rich in B-complex vitamins: Your body also uses a variety of B vitamins in bone
building. The best sources are liver, eggs, lean meats, yeast, fish, raw nuts, asparagus, broccoli
and bananas.
Get a blood test: A simple blood test will tell you how your hormone levels affect your bone
health. This is the best way to determine the health of your bones and your risk for fracture.
Women may need to take natural progesterone. For both men and women testosterone is the
most powerful controller of your bone density.

PERSIMMON – 柿子 六項提醒 必看 (With English Translation)
P e r s i m m o n - s i x m Persimmon- six must – see reminders
*柿子 六項提醒 必看25-28
吃柿子雖然有很多好處，但有幾點需要提醒：
1. 空腹不能吃就可避免胃柿石的形成。
2. 柿子皮不能吃
3. 不要與含高蛋白的蟹、魚、蝦等食品一起吃
中醫學中，螃蟹與柿子都屬寒性食物，故而不能同食。從現代醫學的角度來看，含高蛋白的蟹、魚、蝦在
鞣酸的作用下，很易凝固成塊，即胃柿石。
4. 糖尿病人勿食
柿子中因含 10.8% 的糖類，且大多是簡單的雙糖和單糖 (蔗糖、果糖、葡萄糖即屬此類)，因此吃後很
易被吸收，使血糖升高。對于糖尿病人而言，尤其是血糖控制不佳者更是有害的。
5. 適可而止
柿而會影響食欲，並減少正餐的攝入。一般認為，不在空腹的情況下，每次吃柿子不超過 200克為
宜。
6. 吃後漱口
柿子含糖高，且含果膠，吃柿子後總有一部分留在口腔裏，特別是在牙縫中，加上弱酸性的鞣酸，很
易對牙齒造成侵蝕，形成齲齒，故而在吃柿子後宜喝幾口水，或及時漱口。
Although there are many benefits of eating persimmon, but there are a few points that we must be aware of:
1. Persimmons Cannot Be Eaten On An Empty Stomach.
Contains more tannin and pectin, in an empty stomach under the effect of gastric acid, lumps of various sizes will formed, if these lumps can not reach the pyloric intestine, it
will remain in the stomach to form gastric persimmon stone. The stone original is as small as apricots and persimmon seeds nu, but will tend to get larger if naturally expelled
from the stomach, it will cause diospyrobezoar the digestive tract obstruction, resulting in upper abdominal pain, vomiting, and even vomiting blood and other symptoms.
During surgery, persimmon stone as big as a fist was found in the stomach. If the’s food in the stomach then the persimmon stone formation in the stomach can be avoided .
2. Persimmon Skin Should Not Be Eaten
Some people feel that eating persimmon fruit together with the skin taste betten than just eating the flesh by itself. Scientifically this is not advisable because the vast
majority of persimmon tannin in concentrated in the skin. If eaten toegether with its skin the formation of gastric persimmon stone is easier, especially when the astringent
process is incomplete, as its
skin contains more tannic acid.
3…
Do not eat pesimmon together with high-protein crabs, fish, shrimp and
other foods
In Chinese medicine, crab and persimmon are considered “cold foods”, therefore they cannot be eaten together. From the perspective of modern medicine, crab, fish and
shrimp contains high level of protein and thus under the effect of the tannic acid, it is easy to solidified into blocks, namely, stomach persimmon stone.
4
. Diabetics Should Not Eat Pesimmon
Persimmon has 10.8% sugars content, and most are simple pairs of sugar and simple sugars (sucrose, fructose, glucose is such), which can easily be absorbed by our body
after eating which may result in hyperglycemia. For diabetic people, especially those with poor glycemic control, it is even more harmful.
5. Enough is enough
The tannic acid in persimmon together with dietary calcium, zinc, magnesium, iron and other minerals form compounds that cannot be absorbed by the body so that these
nutrients can not be used and therefore eating persimmons can easily lead to a lack of these minerals. And because there is more sugar in persimmon, eating the same
amount of pesimmon compared to apples or pears will make one fill full faster hence will affect one’s appetite, and reduce the intake of meals. Generally, with an empty
stomach, it is advisable that not more than 200 grams of persimmon should be taken.
6. Mouthwash after eating
Persimmon has is high in sugar and contains pectin. After eating persimmon there will be some of the fruits
remaining in the mouth, especially in between the teeth. With the acidic properties of the high tannic acid it is

easy to cause tooth decay, the formation of dental caries. Therefore after eating persimmons it is advisable to
drink some water or to rinse our mouths.

CLEAN YOUR KIDNEYS WITH LESS THAN $1.00
Years pass by and our kidneys are filtering the blood by removing salt, poison and any unwanted entering our
body. With time, the salt accumulates and this needs to undergo cleaning treatments.
How are we going to do this?
It is very easy, first take a bunch of parsley and wash it clean. Then cut it in small pieces and put it in a pot and
pour clean water and boil it for ten minutes and let it cool down and then filter it and pour in a clean bottle
and keep it inside refrigerator to cool.
Drink one glass daily and you will notice all salt and other accumulated poison coming out of your kidney by
urination. Also you will be able to notice the difference which you never felt before.
Parsley is known as best cleaning treatment for kidneys and it is natural!

Health Matters
Papaya was the only studied food found to halt breast cancer
Scientists studied 14 plant foods commonly consumed in Mexico to determine their ability to halt breast cancer cell
growth. These included avocado, black sapote, fuava, mango, prickly pear cactus (nopal), pineapple, grapes, tomato,
and papaya. They also evaluated beta-carotene, total plant phenolics, and gallic acid contents and antioxidant
capacity. They found that only papaya had a significant effect on stopping breast cancer cell growth. (International Journal of Food Science and Nutrition, May)
Papaya is a store-house of cancer fighting lycopene
The intense orangey-pink color of papaya means it is chock full of cancer fighting carotenoids. Not only beta carotene, but lycopene is found in abundance. The construction of lycopene makes it highly reactive toward oxygen and free radicals. Scientists at the University of Illinois think this anti-oxidant activity contributes to its effectiveness as a cancer fighting agent. Epidemiological studies have indicated an inverse relationship between lycopene intake
and prostate cancer risk. They showed that oral lycopene is highly bioavailable, accumulates in prostate tissue, and is localized in the nucleus of prostate epithelial cells.
In addition to antioxidant activity, other experiments have indicated that lycopene induces cancer cell death,
anti-metastatic activity, and the up-regulation of protective enzymes. Phase I and II studies have established the
safety of lycopene supplementation.. (Cancer Letter, October 8, 2008)
Prostate cancer was the subject of a study in Australia that looked at 130 prostate cancer patients and 274
hospitalized controls. The scientists found that men who consumed the most lycopene-rich fruits and vegetables such
as papaya were 82% less likely to have prostate cancer. In this study, green tea also exerted a powerful
anti-cancer effect. When lycopene-rich foods were consumed with green tea, the combination was even more
effective, an outcome the researchers credited to their synergy. ( Asia Pacific Journal of Clinical Nutrition,2007)
Isothiocyanates found in papaya restore the cell cycle to eliminate cancer Organo-sulfur compounds called isothiocyanates are found in papaya. In animal experiments, isothiocyanates
protected against cancers of the breast, lung, colon pancreas, and prostate, as well as leukemia, and they have the potential to prevent cancer in humans. Isothiocyanates have shown themselves capable of inhibiting both the formation and development of cancer cells through multiple pathways and mechanisms. (International Journal of
Oncology), October, 2008)
Researchers in Japan clarified the mechanisms of action in a type of isothiocyanate found in papaya known as BITC,
that underlies the relationship between cell cycle regulation and appropriate cell death. When cancerous cells die on
schedule, they are no longer a problem. The researchers established that BITC exerted cancer cell killing effects that
were greater in the proliferating cells than in the quiescent cells. Cancer cells that are proliferating are much more
dangerous than cancer cells that are in a state of dormancy. (Forum of Nutrition, 2009)
Enzymes from papaya digest proteins including those that protect tumors
The fruit and other parts of the papaya tree, also known as the paw paw tree, contain papain and chymopapain,
powerful proteolytic enzymes that facilitate chemical reactions in the body. They promote digestion by helping to
break down proteins from food into amino acids that can be recombined to produce protein useable by humans.
Proteolytic enzymes protect the body from inflammation and help heal burns. They do a good job of digesting
unwanted scar tissue both on the skin and under its surface.
Research has shown that the physical and mental health of people is highly dependent on their ability to produce
Health by tengkp http://healthmatter.wordpress.com/
16 of 25 4/27/2010 11:43 AM
proteins they can use effectively. However, as people age, they produce less of the enzymes needed to effectively
digest proteins from food and free needed amino acids. They are left with excessive amounts of undigested protein
which can lead to overgrowth of unwanted bacteria in the intestinal tract, and a lack of available amino acids.
Eating papaya after a meal promotes digestion, and helps prevent bloating, gas production, and indigestion. It is
quite helpful after antibiotic use to replenish friendly intestinal bacteria that were the casualties in the war against the
unwanted bacteria. When the intestinal tract is well populated with friendly bacteria, the immune system is
strengthened, and can better protect against flu and cancer.
Being a proteolytic enzyme, papain is able to destroy intestinal parasites, which are composed mostly of protein. To
rid the body of intestinal parasites, half a cup of papaya juice can be alternated each hour for twelve consecutive
hours with the same amount of cucumber or green bean juice.
Papaya contains fibrin, another useful compound not readily found in the plant kingdom. Fibrin reduces the risk of
blood clots and improves the quality of blood cells, optimizing the ability of blood to flow through the circulatory
system. Fibrin is also important in preventing stokes. Proteolytic enzymes containing fibrin are a good idea for
long plane rides to minimize the potential of blood clots in the legs. People who sit at a desk all day might want to use
proteolytic enzymes too.
Proteolytic enzymes are able to digest and destroy the defense shields of viruses, tumors, allergens, yeasts, and
various forms of fungus. Once the shield is destroyed, tumors and invading organisms are extremely vulnerable and
easily taken care of by the immune system.
Undigested proteins can penetrate the gut and wind up in the bloodstream where they are treated by the
immune system as invaders. If too many undigested proteins are floating around, the immune system becomes
overburdened and unable to attend to the other tasks it was meant to do. Proteolytic enzymes can digest these
rogue proteins, freeing up the immune system.

Apple:
An apple a day keeps the doctor away? Although an apple has a low Vitamin C content, it has antioxidants &flavonoids which enhances the activity of Vitamin C
thereby helping to lower the risks of colon cancer, heart attack & stroke…
Strawberry: Protective fruit. Strawberries have the highest total antioxidant power among major fruits &protects the body from cancer causing, blood vessels
clogging free radicals. (Actually, any berry is good for you..they’re high in anti-oxidants and they actually keep us young………blueberries are the best and very
versatile in the health field……..they get rid of all the free-radicals that invade our bodies)
Orange:
Sweetest medicine. Taking 2 – 4 oranges a day may help keep colds away, lower cholesterol, prevent & dissolve kidney stones as well as lessen the risk of colon
cancer.

Benefits of asparagus
Three types of asparagus on a shop display, with white asparagus at the back and green
asparagus in the middle. The plant at the front is
Ornithogalum pyrenaicum, is commonly called wild asparagus,
Several years ago, I learned of the discovery of Richard R.Vensal, D.D.S. that asparagus might
cure cancer. Since then, we have accumulated a number of favourable case histories.
Here are a few examples:
Case No. 1,
A man with an almost hopeless case of Hodgkin’s disease (cancer of the lymph glands) who was
completely incapacitated. Within 1 year of starting the asparagus therapy, his doctors were
unable to detect any signs of cancer, and he was back on a schedule of strenuous exercise.

Case No 2,
A successful 68 years old businessman suffered from cancer of the bladder for 16 years. After
years of medical treatments, including radiation without improvement, he went on asparagus.
Within 3 months, examinations revealed that his bladder tumor had disappeared and that his
kidneys were normal.
Case No. 3,
A man had lung cancer. On March 5th 1971, he was put on the operating table where they
found lung cancer so widely spread that it was inoperable. The surgeon sewed him up and
declared his case hopeless. On April 5th he heard about the asparagus therapy and
immediately started taking it. By August, x-ray pictures revealed that all signs of the cancer
had disappeared. He is back at his regular business routine.
*Case No. 4,
A woman was troubled for a number of years with skin cancer. She finally developed different
skin cancers which were diagnosed by asking specialist as advanced. Within 3 months after
starting on asparagus, her skin specialist said that her skin looked fine and no more skin
lesions. This woman reported that the asparagus therapy also cured her kidney disease, which
started in 1949. She had over 10 operations for kidney stones, and was receiving government
disability payments for an inoperable, terminal, kidney condition. She attributes the cure of
this kidney trouble entirely to the asparagus.
* * PROCEDURE:
1) Place the cooked asparagus in a blender and liquefy to make a puree, and store in the
refrigerator.
2) Give the patient 4 full tablespoons twice daily, morning and evening.
Patients usually show some improvement in from 2-4 weeks. It can be diluted with water and
used as a cold or hot drink. This suggested dosage is based on present experience, but certainly
larger amounts can do no harm and may be needed in some cases
As a biochemist, I have made an extensive study of all aspects of cancer, and all of the proposed
cures. As a result, I am convinced that asparagus fits in better with the latest theories about
cancer. Asparagus contains a good supply of protein called histones, which are believed to be
active in controlling cell growth. For that reason, I believe asparagus can be said to contain a
substance that I call cell growth normalizer. That accounts for its action on cancer and inacting
as a general body tonic. In any event, regardless of theory, asparagus used as we suggest, is a
harmless substance.
The FDA cannot prevent you from using it and it may do you much good.. It has been reported
by the US National Cancer Institute, that asparagus is the highest tested food containing
glutathione, which is considered one of the body’s most potent anticarcinogens and
antioxidants.
