Garden Food

God and nature has made no mistakes in providing sufficient Vitamin B12 to billions of herbivorous animals over millions of millennia - including the vegetarian primates (our biologically nearest creational equivalents) and man! -- if he (man) makes the right dietary choices and nourishes himself the way he was originally designed! -- That is: In and from the garden! -- the perfect home of pure, uncontaminated, light, oxygen and vegetation loving Cyanocobalamin, in correct bounty, in low concentrations, but sufficient for our needs!-- Not extorted from defiled, destroyed, killed, disease hosting, disease transmitting and B12 hyper-concentrating animals -- especially carnivorous animals (as poultry, pork, fish, etc.), which accumulate and concentrate even more B12 in their tissue, fluids and ova at levels above and higher than the herbivorous animals and/or the insects which they consume. Hence carnivores (including man when he chooses to be such) do ultra-concentrate B12 in their tissues!

Hence in carnivorous man, a falsely high mean standard of B12 levels is accumulated and is consequently measured high in phlebotomy data; so it is accepted as the human norm! -- Not good or honest science!!!

And that false high standard (as has been accepted by most all of medicine) precipitates wrong diagnosis! that is, lower test values of accumulatedserum*** B12 levels -- which are naturally (and correctly) less in non-carnivorous (vegetarian) humans and their dependent nursing infants! Those presumed "deficient" patients are then endangered with the unnecessary administrations of (the sewage and/or animal harvested and unnaturally formulated) B12 injections and/or tablets, with their plethora of contraindications (side affects) possible in many recipient patients or wrongly treated victims!

*** serum (blood stream) levels of B12 is not always a good indication of true internal, intra-/inter-cellular, metabolic, B12 functional levels. It is also (now) known that the cells are ultra conservative with B12; i.e. keeping appropriate stores of it within the cells themselves, recycling it within the intra-cellular (inside) chemistry and allowing only that which is absolutely necessary in inter-cellular (between cells) chemistry to be exported, hence not requiring (as was previously presumed) high levels of B12 to be carried in consumption, digestion, absorption and blood flow to replenish it. -- tlr 7/3/03

Standard medicine has seriously erred in the violation of honored Koch postulates and true scientific method, by producing unnatural high average blood level standards for B12, and assuming them as the correct human mean or standard -- based upon hematological data accumulated and calculated in the cross-section of primarily heavily carnivorous USA/Industrial world humans! -- not a true or honest measure for serum B12 levels for all of humanity, nor for creation's biologically intended, apparent and correct human nutrition, chemistry and physiology!

FatSoCiety

You’ve no doubt heard the slogan, “Friends don’t let friends drive drunk.” Well, friends shouldn’t influence friends to be fat, either. Use your social networks and friendships for good, and start spreading positive health behaviors.

The [Fat] Social Network

It’s not uncommon for friends to hang out at the same place, share similar interests, or even shop at the same stores. What may be surprising, though, is that teens with overweight friends may develop a weight problem too. In essence they can “catch” bad eating and lifestyle habits from their heavy friends.

One study looked at 5,000 teens with imitative obesity traits, meaning that teens subconsciously chose to eat and do things that caused weight gain—simply because their friends were heavy. The researchers understand that teens might be more inclined to hang out with friends of a similar size, but they also noted that teens are highly influenced by each other’s behavior.

Here’s an example. Teens often meet up and eat meals away from home—usually in fast food outlets. If they are with friends who don’t take their health or weight seriously, then they may be more apt to order unhealthy junk food. If they’re out with more health-conscious friends, then they’ll probably order healthier food.

That’s the power of the social network.

This is not the first study to look at how friends influence weight gain, though. Back in 2007, the New England Journal of Medicine published a study suggesting that obesity is “socially contagious,” spreading from person to person in a social network. Interestingly, the researchers found that the greatest weight impact was not with those sharing the same genes or household, but among friends.

Here’s what they found. After studying networks of obesity, they found that if someone's friend becomes obese, that person's chances of becoming obese increase by more than half—57% to be exact. Among mutual friends, the effect is even stronger, with chances increasing by a whopping 171%.

On average, having an obese friend influenced a person to gain 17 pounds, which put many people over the body mass index (BMI) measure for obesity. What’s more is that this socially infectious, weight-gaining effect is much greater among friends of the same sex. You have a 71% increased risk of obesity if your same-sex friend gains a lot of weight. The reason? Maybe it’s that love is blind. In short, the esteem you have for your friend may mess up your perception of what a normal or healthy body size is.

This is in no way an excuse to not hang out with your heavier friends; it is an opportunity, however, to become more aware of how friends influence one another—for good or bad. In fact, the same momentum that is used to influence poor ehttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gifating and lifestyle habits might be used to catalyze proper eating and exercise.

You’ve no doubt heard the slogan, “Friends don’t let friends drive drunk.” Well, friends shouldn’t influence friends to be fat, either. Use your social networks and friendships for good, and start spreading positive health behaviors.

The end

The end of year 2010 is drawing upon us. In silhouette sharpness, that for many people who mean so well yet fail so sadly, the essence of what we call "sin" (dosa) is not so much the committing of something unworthy as a refusing of something high and heavenly.

Blossoms of promise have left only bitter stalks without fruit.

Rosebuds have fallen away without blooming, and left only sharp thorns which jag our conscience.

Those Sad Refusal: How often would I ... and you would not!

Friends are necessary to a happy life.

When friendship deserts us, we are as helpless as a ship left by the tide high upon the shore.

When friendship returns to us, it's as though the tide came back, giving us buoyancy and freedom.

food and cancer

Every year, more evidence accumulates that what we eat determines the progress of our healing or can have a great influence on whether we get sick or not. Today, we are aware that the causes of 70% of cancers are related to our food and lifestyle. Apart from this, as Western ways of life gain popularity in developing countries, more and more people are getting cancers.



In this book, we discuss the concept of nutrition from the point of view of both modern science and traditional Chinese dietary wisdom. We have tried to be as concise as possible as we advise you on what food to avoid and what food is good for health.



The choice to stay healthy or to get sick is entirely yours. You are responsible for your own well being. Make that choice wisely!





Excerpts from the book



Preface



This book is written not by choice but out of necessity. The sick who came to see us have worn-out bodies. To us, these bodies reflect a serious imbalance and disharmony that occur within. One of the main causes of such a problem is diet. So, apart from taking herbs and leading a stress-free life, we advise patients to eat healthy food.



There is a saying: The healthy have many wishes, the sick have only one! Very true indeed -- when people are sick, they will listen to our advice willingly but when they are well, they come back to us grumbling. All the time, a primary matter of concern is what they can eat. Or at times, the herbs taste bad! We spend hours and hours each week talking to people about food ?at times we wonder if we should start a cooking school instead. We are fully aware that our advice on diet is not in tune with that which most people are accustomed to. But what choice do we have? If the conventional method of treatments has failed you, you have no other choice but to look elsewhere for healing ?that is, if you want to live.



In this book, we have tried to be as concise and practical as possible in our suggestions. It is impossible to list out everything that you cannot eat or tell you everything about the food that you should eat. We only hope that when you read what is written, your horizon is widened so that you can see beyond your old ways. You will discover that there are many things in this world that make good, healthy food. In reality, reading and following suggestions can solve your problem. But not many people like to read.



There is a Chinese saying: The road to health is the road of knowledge. Knowing ignorance is strength and ignoring knowledge is sickness. Similarly, Socrates once said: There is only one good, knowledge, and one evil, ignorance. Therefore we would like to tell you too, there is no need to throw up your hands in despair! Read, search and try out new ways of eating. Make your healing journey one of fun and excitement. Kindly stop grumbling for this is bad food for the soul.





In the beginning God created the Heavens and the Earth

Genesis 1:1



Then God said, I give you every seed-bearing plant

on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruits with seeds. They will be yours for food. Genesis 1:29





... I give every green plant for food. Genesis 1:30





And the lord God made all kinds of trees grow out of the ground ... trees that were pleasing to the eyes and good for food. Genesis 2: 9

live without food

India studies yogic power for life without food

AHMEDABAD, India (AFP) - – A team of military doctors backed by India's national defence research centre is studying an 83-year-old holy man who claims to have spent seven decades surviving without food or water.

The long-haired and bearded yogi, Prahlad Jani, has been sealed in a hospital in the western city of Ahmedabad where he is under 24-hour observation by 30 doctors and will be subjected to a series of medical tests.

"The observation from this study may throw light on human survival without food and water," doctor G. Ilavazahagan, director of India's Defence Institute of Physiology and Allied Sciences (DIPAS), told AFP.

The DIPAS is part of the Defence Research and Development Organisation, India's state defence and military research institute also behind a grenade packed with chilli powder that recently hit headlines.

"This may help in working out strategies for survival during natural calamities, extreme stressful conditions and extra-terrestrial explorations like future missions to the Moon and Mars by the human race," Ilavazahagan said.

The tests on Jani include magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans, measuring brain and heart activity with electrodes and other neuro-physiological studies, in addition to blood tests.

The experiment started on April 22 and will take 15-20 days. Since the beginning, Jani has neither eaten nor drunk and has not been to the toilet, Ilavazahagan said.

"The exercise of taking this yogi under the medical scanner is to understand what energy supports his existence," he added, explaining that soldiers could benefit from his apparent ability to survive.

"Jani says he meditates to get energy. Our soldiers will not be able to meditate, but we would still like to find out more about the man and his body," he said.

Neurologist Sudhir Shah, who studied Jani in 2003 and is part of the new experiment, said that the extremely skinny but apparently active man faced round-the-clock observation.

"Two stationary 24-hour video cameras have been set up in his room, while a mobile video camera follows him whenever he needs to step outside," he said.

Jani, who dresses in red and wears a nose ring, grew up in Charod village in the Mehsana district in Gujarat and claims to have been blessed by a goddess aged eight, which has enabled him to survive without sustenance.

Shah said that Jani told him the key to his survival was a mystical and unexplained process by which he receives drops of water through a hole in his palate.

Analysis of data, to determine his secret or expose his fraudulence, will take at least two months, the doctors said.

Fasting is a part of Indian culture, made famous by independence leader Mahatma Gandhi, who brought himself to the brink of death on several occasions by refusing food and water to protest against colonial rule.

A monk from India's minority Jain religion -- devout followers of which undertake frequent fasts, sometimes to death -- claims to have deprived himself of food for one year, which is believed to be a record

"If you're busy with something you don't feel hunger, thirst, or the heat and cold," said Sri Sahaj Muni Maharaj, who took daily glasses of warm water during his fast which ended on May 1998.

"I'm busy contemplating the infinite," he told India's Outlook magazine one month before the end of his experiment.

nEWSFLASH

Thanks for participating in the last study. 500 people participated in this survey. I can eat anything I like – food has nothing to do with my cancer. The results: ~ 72.9% disagreed with the above statement, meaning if they had cancer they would observe their diet. ~ 20.6% would go along half way or they half agreed with the statement. ~ while 6.6% fully agreed and would eat anything they like.



The result follows the famous 70:30% rule. Not all people would agree to whatever things you say or do! There are always certain percentages of people who would disagree, no matter what. We also know that only 30% of patients who come to see us benefit or believe in what we do, the remaining 70% are just window shopping! That seems to be the rule??!!!



We invite you to participate in another study –

WATER REHYDRATE YOUR BODY!

How to rehydrate your own body back to health correctly daily.
To monitor your own daily water intake. Here is the formula which I use:
1. Weigh my Present body weight in kilogram (say 50 kg for example, please use your present body weight).
2. Each kilogram of body weight needs 31.42 milliliter of plain water daily. So for a 50 kg body, it is 31.42 multiply 50 equals 1571 ml of plain water, daily. Round this figure up to 1600 ml .
3.Every 90 minute, drink 10% of 1600 ml, which is 160 ml of plain water, regardless of feeling thirsty or not. The idea is to regularly hydrate the body systems.
4.And for every 1250 ml water intake, use 1/4 teaspoon of sea-salt (not those manufactured table-salt from the supermarkets), in your daily diet. Salinity is important for constant rehydration.
5. I suggest you start this water drinking regimen immediately. Upon rising up every morning, drink one glass (10% of personal daily water ration). Just use room temperature water will do. Follow up with the "90 minute pattern",(why?) in order not to flood the kidneys and to ensure the body is regularly receiving its fair share of water throughout the day/night. Before going to sleep, drink another glass. For someone who never (quite like to) drink water like this before, initially he/she may visit the toilet/restroom more often than before, but after some time the body will adjust and the frequency will be normal.

Pain's underlying cause is the body 'signal' of localised/regional body area undergoing cellular dehydration.

Yellowish/dark colour and 'stink-smelling' urine indicate the body is dehydrated.

Dear reader, i invite you to review the earlier posts which i blog at Healthy Wealth blog site http://theinnozablog.blgospot.com for more details on the body physiology when it is shortchanged of water and salt, overtime regularly throughout the years, which cause many physiology changes inside the body cells (even cancer).

In brief, here is how the body uses water, sodium, and blood sugar to ensure constant energy for normal body functions since birth :
1.Water being the primary element, should be always available for normal physiology. When water is not supply accordingly, insufficient over a prolonged period of time, the body will overproduce histamine (neurotransmitter), which actual role is to manage and sort of 'water-inspector of the body'. But the negative of overproduction of histamine around the lung cells will cause asthma. Asthma is just a term used to denote the wheezing signs of a patient gasping for air. Here is what really happen, the body is not receiving it's right amount of water, and the body is reverting to preserve more water-vapour loss via respiration (info: an average adult loses approximately 1-1.5 ml of water just through respiration, daily), with histamine around those avelio (grapes like shape tissues in the lungs) it will cause constriction, hence the wheezing. Asthmatic is not sick per se , but dehydrating; don't medicate the wheezing with more drugs, he/she needs to seriously follow the water drinking regime to restore the body back to normal. Anti-histamine drugs is going against the body natural method to preserve more water-vapour loss, and not many doctors know about this, because their medical training knowledge is based on 'solid paradigm' and not on 'solvent paradigm'.

2. Sodium (lay man term is salt, but not all salt are the same as naturally formed salt as sea salt) has the property (salinity) of holding water molecules long enough for normal diffusion (rate of 0.0001cm per second) between the cells membranes. The water molecule enters the cell, one by one. When daily freshwater is not properly replenish correctly and promptly, the body will , on purpose, retain more sodium than required in the body system. The body also will use cholesterol as 'protective layer' to preserve those vital but dehyrating (drying) cells in order to prevent premature death of the cells. Now normal diffusion rate is not possible, due to this layer of cholesterol, hence the body will activate /cause higher outer pressure to service those cells, hypertension, which doctors measured and called "high blood pressure". Any drugs used trying to lower this "high blood pressure" is going against the natural physiology of the body which is 'suffering' cellular dehydration/(water deficits) effects. The real remedy should be re-hydrate those cells systematically (as i show above).

3.When doctors diagnose high blood pressure and blood test showed high level of sodium, patients are told to cut down on salt intake ( most people don't even know the real sea salt is different from the modern table salt), but they are not taught to drink water. Now we have a case of water insufficiency and lower sodium availability for the body to work with . Is is a mistake to think that high level of sodium is the culprit in causing the high blood pressure. The first cause for high level of sodium in the blood is fresh water deficits in the body, so by regular replenishing the body with enough fresh water in relative to your personal body weight, daily, you solve the real problem of the "need for high blood pressure" in your body.

ASK

Yet God promises it to those who really ask. But remember the secret of ASKing -- asking, seeking,
and knocking.

Deceitful Practices
Still other deadly sins exist within the very circles that make pretense of the most advanced type of godliness; such, for instance, as professing great compassion for the sick, conducting giant meetings for the purpose of bringing healing to them, but slyly separating the hopeless cases from those less serious and more susceptible to psychological impressions, and all the while growing rich on the miseries and pains of humanity. Some of these prophets own large estates, drive huge cars and boast of fabulous wealth tied up in equipment, while the suffering multitudes whose blood they suck hobble or crawl or are carried to meetings.

Investigation of one such man carried on by some godly pastors revealed that he had been hiring healthy persons to come up for prayer and pretend to be healed. This was done, he explained when faced with the deed, to "encourage weak faith." Thus lying and deception were deliberately made a part of the purported methods of the Holy Spirit.

Others base everything on the power of money and personality, yet testify that they are trusting wholly in the power of the Spirit. And many introduce into their religious work every gimmick known to the world, and so destroy the very thing they profess to cherish.

It is sufficient evidence of the moral insensibility of such men that they violently resent even the mention of these things; and it is further proof of the success of their methods that the very public they have betrayed will rush to defend them.

Verse
For such men are false apostles, deceitful workmen, masquerading as apostles of Christ. And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light. Second Corinthians

It is a great deliverance to lose one's self. There is no heavier millstone than self-consciousness. It is so easy to become introverted and coiled around ourselves in our spiritual consciousness. There is nothing that is so easy to fasten onto as our misery: there is nothing that is more apt to produce self-consciousness than suffering. Then it becomes almost a settled habit to hold onto our burden and pray it unceasingly into the very face of God until even our prayer saturates us with our own misery. Rather, we should ask for power to drop ourselves altogether and leave ourselves in His loving hands and know that we are free. Then we may rise into the blessed liberty of His higher thoughts and will and demonstrate His love and care for others.

The very act of letting go of ourselves lifts us into a higher place and relieves us from the thing that is hurting. This habit of prayer for others, and especially for the world, brings its own recompense and leaves upon our hearts a blessing, like the fertility which the Nile deposits upon the soil of Egypt as it flows through to its ultimate goal.

Scripture
I knew a man in Christ—2 Corinthians 12:2
Knowing God’s Will by Three Ways

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Bible Verses ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Rom. 12:1 I exhort you therefore, brothers, through the
compassions of God to present your bodies a living sacrifice,
holy, well pleasing to God, which is your reasonable service.
(2) And do not be fashioned according to this age, but be
transformed by the renewing of the mind that you may prove
what the will of God is, that which is good and well pleasing
and perfect.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Words of Ministry ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Our question now is how do we know God's will. We often think
that mortals like us could never understand God's will.
However, we should have the assurance that not only do we
want to obey God's will, but God Himself also wants us to
obey His will. Not only do we seek to know His will, but God
Himself also wants us to know His will. If God wants us to
obey His will, He must first enable us to know His will.
Therefore, it is God's business to reveal His will to us.
None of God's children need to worry and say, “Since I cannot
know God's will, how can I obey it?” This concern is
unnecessary because God always has a way to show us His will
(Heb. 13:21). We have to believe that God will always show us
His will through the proper means.

What are the ways to know God's will? A Christian must pay
attention to three things in order to know God's will. If
these three things are in agreement with one another, we can
be quite sure that it is God's will. These three things are:
(1) arrangements in the environment, (2) the leading of the
Holy Spirit, and (3) the teachings of the Scripture. These
three things are not mentioned according to the order of
their importance. They do not necessarily have to be in
sequential order. We are simply stating that these three
things help us know God's will. When the testimonies of these
three things are in agreement with one another, we can be
assured that we know God's will. If one of these three things
is not in agreement with the other two, we still need to
wait. We must wait until all three agree with one another
before we go ahead.

Life's too short to wake up in the morning with
regrets, so......
'Love the people who treat you right. Pray for
the ones who don't'



Making Confession to God

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Bible Verses ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1 John 1:8 If we say that we do not have sin, we are
deceiving ourselves, and the truth is not in us. (9) If we
confess our sins, He is faithful and righteous to forgive us
our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Words of Ministry ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If we are willing to be enlightened by the Lord, He will show
us many unrighteous things. Once we see that we are wrong, we
should not be afraid of confessing our wrong. When we first
become a Christian, it is inevitable that we will make
mistakes. The worst thing is being ignorant of our mistakes
or refusing to admit our mistakes once we know them. Being
ignorant of our mistakes is being in darkness. Sins can be
forgiven, but darkness cannot be forgiven. If we confess our
sins, the Lord will forgive us. But darkness makes us
ignorant of our sins; therefore, we cannot enjoy forgiveness.

If we confess our sins, He, according to His word and based
on the redemption through the blood of Jesus, forgives us
because He must be faithful in His word and righteous in the
blood of Jesus; otherwise, He would be unfaithful and
unrighteous. Our confession is needed for His forgiveness.
Such forgiveness of God, which is for the restoration of our
fellowship with Him, is conditional; it depends on our
confession. Both God's forgiveness and God's cleansing are
needed for the restoration of our broken fellowship with God,
that we may enjoy Him in uninterrupted fellowship with a good
conscience, a conscience void of offense.





If someone is caught in a sin, you who are spiritual should
restore him gently. But watch yourself, or you also may be tempted.
-- Galatians 6:1


THOUGHT:
In a day when intervening in someone's life is no longer
politically and socially correct, these verses ring out like a
gunshot on a still night. Sin is still real and is just as deadly
as ever. Yet because we fear being branded judgmental and
self-righteous, we let many who are trapped by sin go to their
spiritual deaths. The call is for nonjudgmental intervention -- we
recognize the gravity of the sin and the need of the sinner,
without feeling arrogant in our righteousness. "There but for the
grace of God go I."



Conformity and Nonconformity

Conformity is the virtue of the slave and can become the vice of the saint.

It is a gloomy lesson of history that whole populations will often enslave themselves to the will of an ambitious political leader if he can promise them security and a few pennies more wages per day. And as often as not, after they have sold their birthright to him by conformity they find that they get the few extra pennies only by long hours of toil, and that the security they need most is protection from their protector.

The dictator, whether he be a political or a religious one, must be able to distribute little favors to the faithful, and these he always manages to have at hand. These favors are like the fish tossed to the performing seal, or like the salt lick of early American days placed near the shooting blind to entice the wary deer within range of the old muzzleloader. But conformity is what the dictator must have if he is to do any dictating worth speaking of.

Now, conformity within limits is a good thing. The musician must conform to the laws of harmony, the engineer to the laws of physics and the farmer to the law of growing things. If I would learn a new language I must bow to its grammar, its vocabulary and its idiom. And civilized society is possible only because the majority of citizens conform quietly to the rules of civilized life.

When this has been said in praise of conformity, there is not much left to say about it that is good. From there on it is almost wholly evil. It is evil because it can be and often is used by the dominant few to enslave the pliable many.

In Him we were also chosen, having been predestined according to the plan of Christ who works out everything in conformity with the purpose of His purposive will. Ephesians 1:11

There is the danger of conforming to what is evil and contrary to God's will for us. However, there is also the responsibility of conforming to what is good just as God works out everything in conformity to the purpose of His will.

remember these : happiness

Remember the five simple rules to be happy:

Free your heart from hatred - Forgive.

Free your mind from worries - Most never happen.

Live simply and appreciate what you have.

Give more.

Expect less

Cancer: why they Live?

CANCER Why They Live

by Chris K. H. Teo, Irene E. A.Teo & Ch’ng Beng Im-Teo

(Irene holds a M.Sc. in Health Psychology and is currently doing her Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology)

EIGHT PEOPLE HAD CANCER. They followed a healing path few dared to follow. They live to share their amazing stories of recovery and self-discovery. They spoke their minds on various issues of cancer treatments. They share with their hearts what they have learnt while on their healing journeys . May you be imbibed with their good values and use them for your own journey.



THE COMMON ATTRIBUTE SHARED among these outstanding people is the realisation that health is their own responsibility and that they must do something for themselves if they want to live. To do something means to institute changes in their lives. They traded the conventional invasive and toxic treatments recommended by their doctors for something simple and very much less harmful – a change of diet, lifestyle and taking of herbs. They lived! And they live to share their stories with you.


Preface! An

Our first book, Cancer Yet They Live was popular. It gave hope to many people and touched many lives. More than a decade has passed since that first book was written. We are now ready to write another – Cancer Why They Live, a sequel to the first.

CA Care has been around helping the helpless and often confused cancer patients since 1995. Unfortunately not everyone who came to us found what they sought. Only thirty percent of them found help and relief.

Perhaps many patients are naïve and ignorant, especially those who have not had any experience dealing with cancer before. Some people believe that their doctors can cure their cancer. They comply with whatever their doctors want them to do. Of course, some have obtained their cure – albeit temporary relief or remission. But many have found themselves worse off than when they first started. Such is the unpredictable nature of cancer cure ….



Chapter 1: Johnny




Summary: Johnny, 46-years old, was diagnosed with Stage 2B, colon cancer. He underwent a surgery in a private hospital in January 2006. Unfortunately, things did not work out well. Nine days later, Johnny had severe hiccups and he had to undergo a corrective surgery. According to the surgeon, his intestines had to be rearranged. After the second surgery, Johnny was unable to move his bowels for several days and the surgeon suggested a third operation (three operations within a month?). Johnny declined further surgery. He said: I am going to discharge myself and go to the General Hospital. Fortunately, everything worked out well this time and Johnny did not need a third surgery. Subsequently he was discharged from the hospital on 14 February 2006. Johnny was asked to go for chemotherapy. But he declined further medical treatment. He came to CA Care in March 2006, and was started on herbs.



Current Health



Q: Are you okay?

A: I am getting better and better. So far no complaints.



Q: Have you gone to see your doctor for a check-up lately?

A: I went to see an oncologist three months after I started taking the herbs. This was the last time I went to consult a doctor. Since then I have not gone to see any more doctors. The oncologist said there was nothing wrong with me but he still insists that I go for chemotherapy. I told him I have no money. Now, I am doing fine. I work eight to ten hours each day – and seven days a week. But I am okay.



Q: We are going to talk about your cancer experience. When I mention the word “cancer”, how do you feel? Does it make your heart “jump” a bit? Angry? Fearful? What’s your reaction?

A: No, I feel normal. Waah, before I first came to see you, I was stunned – thinking I would die because I had cancer. Now when you talk about cancer it does not bother me at all. When I first came to know I had cancer I was really stressed out and worried. Now having understood and found my direction on how to deal with it, I feel much better.



Q: During these seven months living with cancer, was there any time when you felt you were going to sink or lose hope?

A: No, I never had such feelings. Instead, I felt so energetic and active.





Chapter 2: Jack




Summary: Jack, a 52-year-old male, was diagnosed with Stage 2 nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) in December 2002. He underwent thirty-five radiation treatments but these did not cure him. He suffered a recurrence eight months later. Jack was asked to undergo a surgery to open up his face so that the tumour could be removed. He was on the verge of doing that when a friend suggested that he looked for another option. Jack consulted a doctor from Hong Kong who felt that only radiation was necessary. In April 2004, after six radiation treatments, Jack found CA Care.



Life After the Treatment



Q: After this radiation treatment, you went back to your old lifestyle?

A: After the radiation I asked my oncologist about my diet – whether I have to avoid anything. He said: You can eat anything you like. My wife was beside me. He spoke quite strongly about this, to the extent of telling me off – like why should you even ask such a question. He said: See your wife. Your wife eats the same food as you. Why doesn’t your wife get cancer? He was annoyed by my question. (Laughing). So, I was happy to eat anything I like. I did not know anything about cancer then. I took his word as gospel truth.



Q: What made you ask that question?

A: Generally I hear people with cancer cannot eat this and cannot eat that. People become vegetarians after being diagnosed with cancer. But when the doctor confirmed that I could eat anything, I was happy. But then, I got a recurrence in November 2003.



Recurrence and Radiotherapy – Round Two



Q: There was a recurrence hardly one year after you were first diagnosed. How did you know there was a recurrence?

A: I had to go for a scope which was done once every three months. The first few scopes were okay. But, it looked like I could not have another Christmas! (Laughing)



Q: When you were told of your relapse, how was your reaction? Was it as bad as the first one?

A: Not as bad as the first one. But when the oncologist said I would have to have my face cut, my feelings were like the time when I was first diagnosed with cancer. Actually, a week before I was told I had a relapse, I went for a scan and was told that it was all clear. Then a week later, I went for a scope – very confident that everything was going to be okay. The scope showed the cancer was there. The scan did not show it. I did a scan after a year but the scope every three months. That particular scope coincided with my scan. The doctor didn’t say much. It was a very small lump. So, he did a biopsy. Two days later, he called me.



Q: Was he the same doctor?

A: The same ENT doctor. When he called me, I thought to myself: Finish already, otherwise he would have just sent me the result. He said: Don’t worry. It is just a small thing. Probably you need a little radiation and it would be okay. The only thing is that it is a recurrence. A recurrence is no good. But the problem started when I went to see the oncologist. He said it was a big problem and I had to cut it out. The oncologist said: Actually the radiation didn’t work for you. And radiation won’t work for you anymore. You must go for surgery. So he recommended surgery, cutting through my face (showing cutting motion along his nose and lifting up his face), opening it up, then digging out the thing layer after layer.



Q: How did you take it after hearing the oncologist?

A: Terrible, very, very terrible. Imagine cutting up my face. I didn’t feel like wanting to live anymore. At first, I felt numb. How could this happen? But he said: If I were you, I would do it – for the sake of your family and the kids. That was what he said. I took those words very seriously. If you, as an oncologist, were prepared to go through it, I was left with no choice. When an oncologist says: for my family – these are very powerful words. I was prepared to go for this surgery because of his words. My wife and I started to calculate the costs – we were looking at hospital rates, room and board, etc. It would be a major surgery. So, we were prepared to go for it. It was really scary. You know, mentally I was finished. I couldn’t think anymore following the news. He described to me how my face would be cut through, opened up and scraped (showing scrapping motion), then put back. So there would be scars after that.



Conflicting Professional Advice



Q: After you went home, how long did you brood on whether to go through this operation or not?

A: I brooded for a few days, until the friend (who was with me, listened to everything and was not affected) found out about a Hong Kong oncologist. With some good friends who cared, he searched around and found out that this doctor used to come here. I called this Hong Kong oncologist. But there were a great deal of politics between him and the local doctors. So he said: You have to fly to Hong Kong before I can treat you. But I was very reluctant because in this state of mind, I just did not like to travel. So I said: Can you find a way to come so that you can treat me? I knew friends in a hospital who could arrange for him to come.



Q: So, it was this friend who saved the situation? Without him, you would have gone ahead with the surgery? You and your wife had decided to do it?

A: (Nodded in agreement)



Q: What made him decide to contradict the oncologist’s advice? He was there with you. He heard what the oncologist said. But unlike you, he decided against it?

A: When he heard what the oncologist said, it sounded terrible to him. He also knew many general practitioners (GPs) and specialists. These people also agreed that it sounded terrible. One of his GP friends knew this Hong Kong oncologist. So he helped make the contact.



Q: So, you had treatment from this Hong Kong oncologist?

A: Yes, he radiated me six times on that part of the nose (showing the part on his nose) – only radiation, no surgery.



Q: And he did not ask you to go for surgery? Why did the first oncologist ask you to go for surgery?

A: Personally, my reading is that for the first oncologist to admit his radiation did not work would be a loss of face. I came to this conclusion after everything was over and when I looked back at what had happened. He could not admit that he did not carry out the radiation well enough. Since he said that radiation did not work for me, I had to go for surgery. This is my personal view.



Chapter 7: Lee




Summary: Lee, male, was 53 years old when he was diagnosed with cancer of the kidney on 11 March 1997 . A CT scan showed a well defined solid mass in the right kidney. This could be an adenoma or a low grade carcinoma. Lee underwent an immediate surgery to remove his right kidney. The pathology report dated 14 March 1997 stated: Specimen of kidney: 225 gm, measuring about 11 cm x 5 cm x 4 cm. Yellowish tumour with fibrous areas seen in the middle of the kidney. The tumour measures about 4 cm in diameter. Interpretation: right kidney consistent with clear cell adenocarcinoma. After the surgery, the surgeon did not consider mop-up treatment like radiotherapy or chemotherapy necessary. There was no medication to take either. Lee came to know us through our book: Cancer Yet They Live, which was given to him by a friend. Since then he has been on our therapy.



Personal Growth With Cancer Experience

Q: Did the experience of cancer ever change you in any way or teach you anything?

A: Yes, cancer has taught me what life is all about. From my viewpoint, life tells us that there must be a reason why we are here. Many people may not understand the reason. We go to school – but some people do not understand why they go to school. To some it is just to get a certificate, that’s it. There is more to it. Life is also like that.

My mother died when I was nine years old. I had to stop schooling after Form Five (high school) because my father met with an accident and was not able to take care of us. My sister had to support my younger brother. In order to lessen my sister’s burden, I joined the navy. To me, this was my sacrifice. Indeed, my childhood days were very stressful. After I had cancer, the basic concept of my life still remained the same – sacrifice for a good cause. That is why I have devoted my life to helping cancer patients.

Cancer has changed the way I look at life. Before cancer, my life was self-centred. I went after things that made me happy. I enjoyed to satisfy myself. The main concern was me and what I wanted. In addition, I did things in style to show off or to impress.

My life after cancer was a total change. I am more humble now. Humility and gentleness do not mean weakness. These are noble values. Yes, I am more adaptable and flexible now when dealing with people around me. In past days, I wanted people to adapt to me – I said something and I expected them to obey me. Now I am more accommodating. Before my cancer, life was about what I wanted. Now, I don’t want anything anymore – I just want to be myself and make people around me happy, i.e., to create happiness around my immediate surroundings. I have learnt to appreciate everything around me – human beings or animals, etc. I am more conscious of what goes on around me. Previously, I did not realise or appreciate all these things. I was in a world of dreams of my own. I was twenty-three years in the navy. I started from the lowest rank and climbed up to the highest possible rank of a non-commissioned officer. That was my career achievement. After I had cancer, I started in a similar way. I knew nothing about cancer. Now I am learning more and more and I want to be able to help as many cancer patients as possible. It is now my calling and mission in life.

In short, cancer has nurtured within me a sense of closeness to people around me. I find life more meaningful and enjoyable. I am more humble and less arrogant. As a result of my changed attitudes and lifestyle I cultivated a new set of friends who think and behave like I do now. I lost contact with my old friends. They don’t click with me anymore because my values and thinking have changed. If I want to go to the bar, ah … then, I would end up with the group of old friends again.



Q: Following your cancer, have you found that you are more “empowered” – being able to know what is going on?

A: Definitely. My life is in my hands now. I can control its outcome. Before I had cancer, I accepted everything that came along. Now, I have fine-tuned my life and I do not accept everything and anything that come along. I know more about how to maintain the health of my own body. I am not ignorant anymore. I understand much more now about how to be healthy. Before, I knew nothing and accepted everything that people told me.

Herbs Are Effective For Cancer

In China, the use of herbs in conjunction with chemotherapy or radiotherapy has become routine and very much accepted. In the book: Alternative Treatment for Cancer, Dai Han Zhou wrote: “Clinical practice has proved that Traditional Chinese Medicine can delay tumour growth, initiate direct inhibitory effect, improve survival, increase the effects or decrease the toxic effects of radiotherapy and chemotherapy.”

My Oncologist Said I Was His Fantastic Patient

In the next video, this patient received his chemotherapy in Perth, Australia. He too took our herbs and did not suffer any side effects. His oncologist told him that he was a fantastic patient – compared to other patients. Listen to his video.

It is heartening to know that in Australia, taking of herbs during chemotherapy is clearly encouraged. In Malaysia, this practice is condemned. Yes, they will “swallow Chris Teo alive” for advocating this.

Point to ponder: Why is this patient in Perth so fantastic?



Herbs Are Effective For Cancer

My third message today is: Herbs are effective for cancer.

“Effectiveness” means differently to different people – much depends on perspective. Before we discuss how effective herbs are for cancer, let us first ask this question: How effective is the present medical treatment for cancer?

News from Israel.

Tel Aviv scientists pioneer food supplement

A new food supplement from Israel targets colon and rectal cancer, as well as ulcerative colitis and other bowel diseases. The product, which has yet to hit the world market, is called Coltect. It is a combination of green tea polyphenols, curcumin powder from the turmeric root and the trace mineral selenium. Its effects were described at a recent oncology meeting and it is the subject of two clinical trials.

Results were presented at the 2010 American Society for Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Gastrointestinal Cancers Symposium. The authors, from Tel Aviv Sourasky Medical Center, tried Coltect alone or combined with a common drug, 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA), in cell line and animal models of colon cancer.

Depending on the dose, there was up to an 83 percent inhibition of cancer cell growth using Coltect. In the animal model, the combination of Coltect and the drug 5-ASA reduced the number of precancerous lesions from 66.5 in the control group to 20 in the group that received both agents. The authors concluded that Coltect “can be administered as a chemopreventive regimen to prevent” colorectal cancer.

While waiting for Coltect to hit the world market, one might consider taking a combination of green tea polyphenols, turmeric (with its key ingredient, curcumin) and Brazil nuts (a good source of selenium–use the kind that you have to shell yourself).

As for 5-ASA, it is not available without a prescription. But it is a derivative of salicylic acid and is chemically similar to aspirin. A 2003 journal article concluded: “Preclinical, observational, and clinical data consistently show that non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)—particularly aspirin—reduce colorectal carcinogenesis” (Hawk and Vine, 2003). So you might ask your doctor about taking a baby aspirin (81 mg) along with the anticancer food components.

Colon cancer afflicts over 100,000 Americans each year. Perhaps some of these cases could be prevented by the judicious use of anticancer foods, supplements and drugs, all of which are readily available. The toxicity of such agents is low and the cost of all together is less than a dollar a day.

Chit Chat :Welcome PROBLEMS

Let us chit chat.
Activity gets you busy. But productivity gets you results. Activity consumes time. Productivity frees it.Stop analyzing life. Just live it. Analysis is what makes it complicated.Uncertainty is inevitable, but worrying is optional. Pain is inevitable able, but suffering is optional.

If suffering is optional, why do good people always suffer?
Diamond cannot be polished without friction. Gold cannot be purified without fire. Good people go through trials, but don't suffer. With that experience their life becomes better not bitter.In every terms, Experience is a hard teacher. She gives the test first and the lessons afterwards.

Problems are Purposeful Roadblocks Offering Beneficial Lessons (to) Enhance Mental Strength. Inner strength comes from struggle and endurance, not when you are free from problems. If you look outside you will not know where you are heading. Look inside. Looking outside, you dream. Looking inside, you awaken. Eyes provide sight. Heart provides insight.
Success is a measure as decided by others. Satisfaction is a measure as decided by you. Knowing the road ahead is more satisfying than knowing your road ahead. You work with the compass. Let others work with the clock. Always look at how far you have come rather than how far you have to go. Always count your blessings, not what you are missing. When they suffer they ask, "Why me?" When they prosper, they never ask "Why me". Everyone wishes to have truth on their side, but few want to be on the side of the truth. Seek not to find who you are, but to determine who you want to be. Stop looking for a purpose as to why you are here. Create it. Life is not a process of discovery but a process of creation. Face your past without regret. Handle your present with confidence. Prepare for the future without fear.There are no unanswered prayers. At times the answer is NO.

Me: Thank you for this wonderful chat.
God : Well. Keep the faith and drop the fear. Don't believe your doubts and doubt your beliefs. Life is a mystery to solve not a problem to resolve. Trust me. Life is wonderful if you know how to live. "Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take but by the moments that took our breath away!"
