Brain Lesions Cancer

Seven days later, I was lying inside an Mri tube, praying to God that they wouldn't find cancer. I will find out my pathology tomorrow.

Brain Lesions Cancer

I've just had my first taste of mortality; the view of cancer is a terrific pill to swallow. As I'm sure the hundreds of thousands of people-fathers, children, mothers, teenagers, and young grandparents-who must pop this pill every year must feel too. Why has cancer come to be such an epidemic? And more importantly, what can we do, individually and collectively, to turn it?
Well, after only nine days of intensely worrying, researching, questioning and listening I've done that we cannot leave it solely up to the curative society any longer. Don't get me wrong, God-bless nurses and doctors (especially nurses, who are so underpaid for the difficult and demanding work they do). If you find yourself in an automobile crash or with some acute injury or attack, these are nothing else but the folks you need! They have the technology and brilliance to save lives. But as far as curative disease-cancer, cardiovascular, diabetes, Hiv/Aids; the list goes on and on-they simply don't have the answers we're seeing for. We must take our condition back into our own hands. We must open our eyes to what we are doing-or not doing-to and for ourselves.

Where the problem Lies: Money

Cancer has been leashing its fury on us, as a nation, for as long as most of us can remember and yet, "despite study expenditures now over 6 billion dollars annually; while the last 30 years increases in the survivability of the major cancers, together with breast cancer, colon cancer, lung cancer and prostate cancer can be measured in just a few percentage points." Michael Guthrie, R.Ph. Alternative Cancer Treatments. Retrieved December 10, 2008, from alternative-cancer-treatments.com/index.htm.

One must question: Is this war on cancer just too profitable to end? And if not, why are we no closer now than we were 30 years ago to seeing a cure?

I think it is about time that money went into educating the group on the truth: Cancer is ravaging us because we are ravaging ourselves-knowingly and unknowingly! And most of us are being attacked without realizing it, until it's nearly too late. It is prevention, not early detection that we must focus most on.

Our bodies are overfed yet undernourished. The air we breathe is contaminated with toxins. Our food and beverages are covered in pesticides and filled with hydrogenated fats, sugar, and chemicals. Our meats are pumped full of hormones. We spend hours in front of computer monitors, talking on cellular phones, and racing colse to in a frantic pace, trying to keep up with the Jones'. We pop pills for our constant aches and pains, and as we harbour disappointments, let-downs, and betrayals; living primarily in the past while worrying about the future. As I said to my father a few weeks ago, after he had a mild stroke and was complaining that the treatment wasn't curative him, "Dad, you don't have a disease you have a lifestyle! You can't smoke two packs of cigarettes a day, work long hours, eat meat and potatoes each evening, and then discontinue it off with a few whiskey nightcaps and not expect it to take its toll on your body. treatment won't ever cure you. It may mask the symptoms but unless you turn what you're doing, you'll never turn your outcome! You can take operate of your condition though! It's never too late!"

Wake Up and Smell the Green Tea

More now than ever before we have an fullness of choices yet sadly, but understandably, especially in our fast-paced and chaotic lives, the fast and easy ones seem to be the ones that too many of us are choosing.

It seems that we put more value on the capability of the car we drive than we do on the capability of the food we eat. We put more concentration on paying off our homes than we do on paying concentration to the population in our homes; beginning first and leading with ourselves! We simply have our priorities confused and in our exertion to make life easier, we've totally complicated it. The body is a exquisite example of this: It may be a complicated engine with trillions of chemical reactions happening every second but taking care of it is nothing else but quite simple. As long as we give it what it needs-versus what we want-it will run beautifully. Instead we fill it with foods it can't process, toxins it can't fight, stress it can't tolerate, and medicines that have a rippling result of negative side-effects.

And then we, the weary and scared patient, look to our doctor hoping he can dole us out just one more "magic pill" that can save our lives. Sadly, we've allowed ourselves to give away our power and lay it, instead, on the shoulders of the almighty M.D.

Not only does this leave us feeling disempowered, helpless, and afraid, it puts all of the accountability on the doctor to heal us. And believe it or not folks, doctors are not nothing else but God! And as far as I'm concerned, they are burdening way too much of this load. Besides, I'd bet that if you could speak to most of them, "off-the-record" they, too, would tell you that the current options of surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy is not doing the job that it was once believed it would.

So, why not consolidate the technology and advancements of contemporary science with the proven and productive natural approaches (albeit non-profitable) of eating a clean diet that is primarily organic fruits, vegetables, raw nuts and seeds, sea vegetables, and whole grains, along with incorporating a daily regime of supplementation, exercise, and meditation?

Well, I think it's because we've been taught that we must choose one option or the other because of a battle that has been going on for over a hundred years between the curative world-primarily the pharmaceutical companies-and the world of alternative condition modalities. A battle that, like all wars, hurts everyone involved. Ausubel, K. (2000). When curative Becomes a Crime. Vermont: curative Arts Press.
Pharmaceutical companies may be manufacture big money but they themselves are filled with employees, just like you and me, who need a good option for their own health, too. It's time to value population more than money. It's time that you value yourself-your health, your children's health, and the condition of this planet!

The good news is that we can not only stop the damaging effects of our current lifestyle but with a exiguous commitment and willpower we can nothing else but reverse the damage we've done!

Why not start tonight by going to bed a exiguous earlier and waking up a exiguous earlier? When you wake up, head right out for a brisk 20 exiguous walk. Enjoy a breakfast of organic yogurt with a banana, berries, and raw muesli, with a hot cup of cancer-fighting green tea. Take a few minutes to give thanks for everything in your life. Take the train to work. Smile. Listen to relaxing music. Have a big salad with salmon or tofu for lunch. Drink fullness of water with lemon. Let your work stay at work, as you head out a exiguous earlier than normal. As you walk straight through the door kiss your spouse, your kids, and pat your dog. Give thanks again. Do something fun. Turn off the Tv. Read a great book. Light some candles. Make love. Clean up your finances. Simplify your life. Meditate. Do a cleanse. Eliminate red meat. Cut back on alcohol. Dance. Sing. Laugh. Live....
It nothing else but is pretty simple. I'm game, are you?
