Our guest blogger this week is a brilliant, compassionate man with information that could change your life.
Dr. Pinell is a cancer survivor who is a board certified emergency physician who works full-time at Southeast Georgia Health System emergency department in Brunswick, Georgia. Also, he has a Medical Aesthetic and Wellness Center at 60 Cinema Lane, Suite 250, St. Simons Island, Georgia.
By the end of 2010, cancer will become the number one killer in America.
Cancer is a disease that can bring the strongest person to their knees, and I will describe simple ways that you can possibly protect yourself and your loved ones from this devastating disease. It is interesting to note that everyone has cancerous cells continually being created in their body. Chemotherapy and radiation are used because cancer cells are weaker than normal cells and therefore may die first.
The seven main causes of cancer are: low oxygen in our cells; acidic urine and saliva; weak immune system; overload of toxins; lack of exercise; hormonal imbalance; and stress. We have cancer protective genes that become inactivated by certain factors: aging, poor lifestyle choices, stress, poor dietary habits, and exposure to toxicity. My objective is to tell you ways to reverse these factors and reactivate these cancer protective genes by maintaining a good diet, sleeping well, avoiding harmful chemicals, replacing bio-identical hormones, and taking detoxifying antioxidants.
Low oxygen levels in our cells breed cancer. In 1931, Dr. Warburg won his first Nobel Prize for proving cancer is caused by a lack of oxygen respiration in cells. “The cause of cancer is no longer a mystery, we know it occurs whenever any cell is denied 60% of its oxygen requirements.” Cancer cells meet their energy needs in great part by fermentation that produce lactic acid. Omega 3 essential fatty acids are needed by cell walls so that oxygen can enter the cells. High oxygen tensions are lethal to cancer tissue. How can you simply increase your oxygen level? If you will eat 1 cup milled flax seed mixed with 1 cup organic cottage cheese or yogurt daily. This will supply the needed omega 3 for oxygen cell wall transfer. You can take MSM (methyl sulfonyl methane) and Co Enzyme Q 10 that will increase the oxygen in your cells. Hyperbaric oxygen treatments, deuterium fortified water, and IV hydrogen peroxide has been also shown to improve cellular oxygenation.
Acidic urine and saliva levels leads to cancer. Cancer thrives in an acidic environment and doesn’t survive in a normal, more alkaline environment.
Cancer cells produce lactic acid to make your body more acidic. When cancer cells grow, they produce even more acid. Alkaline water holds a lot of oxygen, but acidic water holds very little oxygen. There is a long history of reversing cancer simply by alkalinizing the body, but this detoxification process can take months to complete. How can you simply increase (alkalize) your body? Drink 1 teaspoon of baking soda (pH 8.2) in water at bedtime. Drinking green barley and eating raw vegetables helps to alkalinize your body as well as the supplement MSM. Test your morning urine with pH paper (goal is urine pH 7.5 to 8.0).
A weakened immune system leads to cancer, but a strong immune system seeks out and destroys cancer cells. For most of your life, the immune system has successfully dealt with cancer cells, killing them off as they developed. Thus, it is vital in your battle against cancer to strengthen your immune system. How can you strengthen your immune system with food? EAT 5 to 7 fresh raw vegetables (rainbow of deep colors); 2 to 3 fresh raw fruits; 2 to 3 servings of whole grains; 2 to 3 servings of organic grass-fed protein; 2 to 3 Tablespoons of olive oil, nuts, and/or seeds; use herbs and spices liberally each day—eat organic when possible. AVOID tuna, shellfish, candy, chips, processed foods, sugar, liver, kidney, chocolate, egg yolks, vegetable oils, salt, coffee, alcohol and dairy products. Ideally, avoid cooked, frozen, or microwave food since heat and cold destroys food’s natural enzymes.
EAT high anti-oxidant foods—blueberries, blackberries, cinnamon, pomegranate, raspberries, brussel sprouts, spinach, and green tea. Nutrition must be taken seriously, even held as sacred.
Overload of toxins in our world is another major cause of cancer. Over the last 100 years, the world has added tens of thousands of chemicals into our environment. We have never been exposed to these chemicals before and don’t know how to handle them. Food has been genetically modified with chemicals. Avoid these chemicals by eating organic foods. Cellular toxicity is caused by shunting of toxins into your cells due to excess acidity in the blood. Heavy metal and chemical toxicity comes from years of exposure to highly toxic heavy metals and chemicals, silver amalgam fillings, aluminum in toothpaste, mercury from fish etc. Chlorine may be the greatest crippler and killer of modern times with 2/3 of our exposure due to inhalation of steam and skin absorption while showering. Install shower filter to de-chlorinate. How can you safely detoxify your body? Obtain a blood test to check for amount of heavy metal and other toxins. You can detoxify with MSM oral supplement as well as IV glutathione, high dose IV Vitamin C and B complex, and EDTA for heavy metal toxicities.
Lack of exercise is another contributor to our increasing rate of cancer in America. A simple prescription of walking or swimming 20 minutes three times per week has been found to be adequate to help prevent cancer.
Bio-identical hormonal replacement is a cancer protector as well as a quality of life enhancer. Scientific studies show that bio-identical progesterone and estriol offer protection against breast cancer which now strikes one out of eight women in America. Bio-identical testosterone replacement for men can protect their hearts and prevent prostate cancer. Also, DHEA cream has been shown to reduce the risk of cancer by blocking anaerobic energy source for cancer cells.
Every disease originates from a shock or trauma that catches us by surprise.
Stress wipes out the immune system. Un-dealt with emotional issues may well lead to cancer. Immune system needs 9 ½ hours of sleep in dark room every night to maximally function. If you have cancer, your response to stress is critical. We are all exposed to difficult life issues, but we are in control of our response to these issues. Our attitude will determine our outcome. Negative attitudes will kill you faster than anything else. Your perspective on your life and your faith are the key to your joy or sorrow. Focus on the good and not the bad. Appreciate the simple things in life.
Lifestyle change is one of the easiest and most effective cancer-fighting strategies there is. Cancer is mostly preventable, manageable, and sometimes curable, but it is up to you to make the effort.
