Happy New Year! Hope,
I hope this finds you and you loved ones in good health. Mike and I are hoping for a better year this year and continued success with his treatment to co-existing with his cancer.
Mike is continuing to take his daily supplements, drinking his alkaline water, receiving his weekly Vitamin C infusions, and eating organically/carbohydrate (as much as possible) & sugar free. We have also ordered a juicer as he is going to start juicing green vegetables. He already eats a lot of broccoli, cauliflower, asparagus, cabbage, brussel sprouts, green beans but is now going to be incorporating spinach, kale, and cucumbers into his diet. He has been continuing to eat tomatoes and onions which he is not particularly fond of, but does it because he knows it is beneficial to his health.
When we were in Germany, Mike from Tazmania (a patient there as well) showed us a video - Fat, Sick, and Nearly Dead by Joe Cross from Australia. He did nothing but drink green juices and lost a lot of weight and became healthier by doing this. It was suggested to Mike that he should juice by a couple of different patients while we were at Marinus am Stein. The juicing helps the body heal itself by giving proper nutrients to the immune system which in turns helps the body to self heal.
The following is taken from The Benefits of Juicing for Cancer Patients at Livestrong.com:
Juicing is a way to get antioxidants -- substances that protect the body from cellular damage created by free radicals. According to the National Cancer Institute, free radicals can cause cancer or progress an existing disease.
Phytonutrients provide a boost to the immune system, aid cell-to-cell communication, fight cancer, and repair DNA damage resulting from free radicals.
Each and everyone has to determine what is best for their own health and do what they need to do to maintain their health. Best Wishes in 2014!
