Breast Cancer Survivors: How to Keep Your Cancer From Coming Back After Chemotherapy or Radiation
The most common cancers are prostate (for men) and breast (for women), followed by lung and colorectal cancer. Next is bladder cancer for men, uterine cancer for women, lymphoma for men, and ovarian cancer for women.
This insidious disease is not just limited to men and women, even children and some of our pets become victims of this terrible disease.
ONE-THIRD OF AMERICANS WILL EVENTUALLY DIE OF SOME FORM OF CANCER.
After heart disease, cancer is the second leading cause of death in the United States. All cancers result from a mutation or change in genes that control cell growth (American Medical Association).
The causes of this mutation include: carcinogens, cigarette smoke, heavy metals, pesticides, X-ray radiation, radiation from the sun, poor diet, etc.
It must be emphasized that many types of cancer can be prevented through a triple diet regiment, avoidance of carcinogens (cancer-causing agents), and strengthened body defenses.
BREAST CANCER… SECOND CAUSE OF CANCER-RELATED DEATH IN WOMEN.
According to the American Medical Association (AMA), there are nearly 180,000 new cases of breast cancer in American women each year and more than 40,000 cancer deaths. 5 to 10 percent of women with breasts have a mother or sister with breast cancer (two gene mutations called BRCA1 and 2)
Now here’s something interesting. The vast majority of women who develop breast cancer have no family history of the disease. So now, with that behind us, let’s focus on getting helpful tips on how to handle this health challenge successfully.
MEASURES THAT CAN BE TAKEN TO PREVENT THE CANCER FROM COMING BACK.
Diet… Fiber intake: Increasing your fiber intake by 20 to 30 grams daily, twice the amount for most people, can reduce the amount of estrogen circulating in your bloodstream. Eat more beans, lentils, fresh fruits, vegetables, and whole grains (AMA).
Reinforced Body Defense… The most powerful protector and fighter against cancer is Glutathione (GSH). Hundreds of medical articles have been written describing the role of GSH in the prevention and treatment of cancer. They are divided into three main groups:
Prevention– includes detoxification of carcinogens, anti oxidation and increased immune response.
Therapeutic Possibilities- antitumor methodologies and the treatment and prevention of wasting.
Special paper for GSH- in chemotherapy and radiotherapy so it minimizes its side effects.
THE BEST DEFENSIVE FIGHTER AGAINST CANCER.
Dr. Jimmy Gutman in his book “Glutathione, Your Key to Health,” on page 6, says: GSH is the most powerful antioxidant that occurs naturally in your body. The effectiveness of other antioxidants such as vitamins C and E depends on glutathione.
A study published by the Journal of the National Cancer Institute illustrated that a well-functioning glutathione enzyme system prevents cancer. Glutathione (GSH) absorbs oxy radicals and other radicals as they are formed in the cell.
Therefore, GSH provides both preventive and therapeutic benefits. This is primarily because elevated glutathione levels allow the body to make more white blood cells (cells that protect the body from disease and infection)
BREAST CANCER SURVIVOR…NO CHEMOTHERAPY OR RADIATION THERAPY AFTER SURGERY.
I had the pleasure and opportunity to interview Susie from Florida.
Interviewer— Susie, when were you first diagnosed with breast cancer?
Susie———–In January 2003.
Interviewer—- What was your first concern?
Susie———– Find help with my procedures. You see, I didn’t have insurance to cover my expenses, so I was looking for a less expensive but effective alternative.
Interviewer—– What options came to mind?
Susie———— First and foremost was getting a second opinion.
Interviewer—— What procedure was done in your case?
Susie———— Surgery to remove the infected lymph node.
Interviewer—— What followed, chemotherapy or radiotherapy?
Susie————– Neither, I declined both due to side effects. My doctor initially disagreed with my decision. A friend put me in touch with an immune system research company that provided me with information about a clinically proven natural technology that helps the immune system fight cancer. This whey protein isolate helps optimize my immune system to produce more glutathione.
Interviewer—— What is your prognosis now?
Susie————– As of April 2008, my doctor told me that my test shows that I am cancer free.
Interviewer——- What post-cancer tips would you like to share with other breast cancer victims?
Susie————– After completing your procedures, exercise regularly, diet (include fruits and vegetables), take high-quality nutritional supplements, and most importantly, achieve and maintain a healthy immune system by raising glutathione levels. I take my special whey protein isolate every day, because it saved my life. I am convinced that by doing this I will prevent my cancer from coming back!
A weak or compromised immune system leaves the body’s cells vulnerable to free radical damage that can trigger cancer. There are other factors that create a cancerous environment. Both humans and animals can become victims of cancer.
The most powerful and aggressive fighter against cancer is the master antioxidant. Glutathione. Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the United States. Raising glutathione (GSH) will help protect your body. CANCER.
