Cancer Cell Tidbits

Free Radicals
A "free radical" is an oxygen molecule which is missing an electron, so it steals an electron from another cell.  Cells cannot function properly without their electrons--which could cause them to become cancerous cells.

Antioxidants
"Antioxidants" are molecules with extra electrons which they donate to free radicals--keeping them functioning normally and preventing them from becoming cancerous.  Many fruits, vegetables, herbs and spices contain anti-oxidants, which is one reason why a raw, organic, whole-food diet is so important.  (*Side note:  many doctors tell their cancer patients to avoid consuming antioxidants while taking chemotherapy, because they believe the nutrients interfere with the chemo.  Not only has this been proven false through scientific testing [in fact the opposite has been shown:  antioxidants help chemo work better], it just plain doesn't make sense--"Don't consume healthy nutrients when your body is fighting a disease, because that healthy stuff will interfere with the toxic poisons we're pumping into your body to 'cure' that disease."  Really?!)

Sugar
Cancer cells are "obligate glucose metabolizers"--they must have sugar as their energy and fuel source.  SUGAR FEEDS CANCER.  (I have written previous articles on this subject.)  Yet what does one find in conventional oncology
offices?  Dishes of candy for the patients.  What types of food are served to children in pediatric cancer wards?  Sugary desserts and junk food, because "a calorie is a calorie--we just want them to eat."  Conventional medical staffs feed the very disease they are supposedly treating!

Anaerobic
Cancer cells are "anaerobic" which means they thrive in a low-oxygen or no-oxygen environment.  A nutrient-rich diet aids in getting adequate amounts of oxygen to the cells, and some alternative cancer treatments incorporate oxygen therapies which kill cancer cells by introducing oxygen into them.

Electrical Charge 
Cancer cells have the opposite electrical charge as normal cells.  Pancreatic enzymes chew up the proteins in the cell membranes of cancer cells, but the enzymes don't harm normal cells, because their electrical charge repels the enzymes.  

Cancer cells also have a protein coating which serves as a "cloaking device" against the body's immune cells that are supposed to identify and eliminate the enemy cancer cells.  The protein coating has a negative electrostatic charge just like immune cells, causing them to be repelled by cancer cells.  (70%-80% of immune cells are made up of "neutrophils" which can't "see" the cancer cells due to their cloaking device.  "Natural Killer Cells" make up a small percentage of immune cells, and they are the only immune cells that are not fooled by the cloaking device and can still identify the invaders.)  Pancreatic enzymes expose cancer cells to the body's immune cells by chewing through that protective protein coating, making pancreatic enzymes an important supplementation to the diet.

Cancer cells have very low electric activity; delivering electric energy to cancer cells kills them.  Interestingly, every cancer patient known to have been struck by lightning had no evidence of cancer following the lightning strike!  Fulvic acid is a substance that delivers that electric energy to cancer cells. 

Phases
Cancer cells go through four phases; chemotherapy only works during one of those four phases:  the synthesis phase.  Therefore, chemo only has a 25% chance of working.  "Insulin Potentiated Targeted Low Dose" chemotherapy (IPTLD) is an alternative treatment that changes chemo from a "hand grenade" (wide spread destruction) to a "sniper rifle" (narrowly focused targeting).  Patients are administered insulin in order to significantly lower blood sugar levels, causing cancer cells to "starve."  This puts cancer cells in the synthesis stage which is when chemo works.  IPTLD makes chemo 20 times more effective with 1/10 of the dose.

The more I learn about cancer, the body, cells, and how everything works, the more fascinated I am--and the more confident I am that conventional cancer treatments are not the answer!
