Prostate Cancer–Information For Patients Seeking Natural Ways To Reverse It
By: Alan-nz
There are are four characteristics with every person diagnosed with prostate cancer and they are; a weak immune system, a lack of oxygen in the cells, excessive toxins and acidity. Are we fixing those with our current treatments? No, there are only natural ways to remedy those. Reversing prostate cancer is all about correcting the reasons why it first appeared.
Nutrition is very important to a person with prostate cancer and by making changes to your diet and consuming mainly fruit and vegetables in their natural state will automatically strengthen a weak immune system and turn an acid diet into a more alkaline diet. The typical western diet which is high in animal fats is a more acid diet. By making changes to a plant based diet you are consuming healing foods and its well known that many of them have cancer fighting properties.
Fresh fruit and vegetables are man’s natural food, for instance research has found that both tomatoes and broccoli contain phytonutrients that are beneficial in both fighting cancer and keeping us cancer free. Also increase your consumption of omega 3 fatty acids which are found in flax seed oil, extra virgin olive oil, walnuts and especially fish, such as salmon, tuna and sardines.
There have been thousands of chemicals enter the marketplace over the last couple of decades without adequate testing for human health. We are surrounded by them as we breathe them in as in exhaust gases and industry pollution; we apply them to our skin as in personal care products and many contain parabens, a known carcinogenic substance. They are also in our processed foods as additives, such as food colorings, and most food colorings are from artificial sources. Then there is bisphenol A also called BPA, a toxic substance widely used in the manufacture of plastic products.
Exercise will correct a lack of oxygen in our cells but the main reason exercise is important is to boosts our immune system. Prostate cancer is simply a disease of an immune system thats been weakened and allowed cancer cells to become established. Our immune system relies on muscular activity to function properly because a healthy immune system defends the body against all diseases and will eliminate bacteria, viruses and other foreign invaders including cancer cells.
Its important to realize that prostate cancer is not just a disease of the prostate but a disease of the whole body. Its actually a sign that something is wrong so surgically removing the prostate or any other of our orthodox treatments doesn’t solve the problem. Many of these harsh treatments are causing incontinence and impotence so it is essential to deal with the reasons why it became cancerous and remove those reasons. By dealing with those four causes, prostate cancer is an entirely curable disease.
To reverse prostate cancer cut back on meat, eggs and dairy products and eat a more plant based diet. Avoid hot dogs, bacon and pressed meats because of the nitrates they contain. Also avoid burning meat as with barbecue cooking because of the cancer causing chemicals called heterocyclic amines or HCAs that can form.
By taking responsibility for your own health you can improve your chances of reversing prostate cancer as the body strives to heal itself automatically every single day. All you need to do is to assist it by making these changes.

Frankenfoods in Your “Natural” Foods Store: Whole Foods or Whole Hypocrisy?
By Ronnie Cummins -
Organic Consumers Association, April 12, 2011
“The reality is that no grocery store in the United States, no matter what size or type of business, can claim they are GE-free. While we have been and will continue to be staunch supporters of non-GE foods, we are not going to mislead our customers with an inaccurate claim… We have advocated for mandatory labeling of GE foods since 1992…” — Whole Foods Market Internal Company Memo 1/30/2011.
“Whole Foods claim they support mandatory labeling of GMOs (Genetically Modified Organisms). Well, where are the labels on the vast array of non-organic foods in their stores that contain genetically engineered soybeans, corn, canola, cottonseed oil, or sugar beets? Where are the labels on their so-called “natural” meat, eggs, or dairy products, reared on GMO grains and animal drugs?”
— Protester in front of a San Francisco Whole Foods Market, April 11, 2011.
After two decades of biotech bullying by Monsanto and Food Inc., a grassroots movement of organic consumers and farmers is rising up across the United States. Inspired by the success of their European counterparts in driving genetically engineered crops and foods off the market, not through an EU ban, but through mandatory labeling, several thousand protesters took to the streets on March 26, 2011 in 30 different cities, under the banner of “Rally for the Right to Know,” and “Millions Against Monsanto.”
At the same time, anti-GMO activists have stepped up the pace of grassroots lobbying, successfully pressuring state legislators in at least 14 states to introduce bills calling for mandatory labeling of genetically engineered foods.
Reflecting widespread public concern over the health and environmental hazards of GMOs, recent polls by National Public Radio and MSNBC have found that more than 90% of Americans support mandatory labeling. Mandatory labeling of GMOs, of course, is bitterly opposed by Monsanto and the supermarket lobby, who understand, as a Monsanto executive admitted, “If you put a label on genetically engineered food you might as well put a skull and crossbones on it.”
Angered by the Obama administration’s recent controversial approvals of GMO alfalfa, salmon, sugar beets, and corn, and the compromise or surrender of organic industry leaders, including Whole Foods, in agreeing to accept the “co-existence,” of GMO and organic crops and foods, organic consumers across the U.S. have decided to take matters into their own hands.
Spearheaded by the industry watchdog group, the Organic Consumers Association, and powerful alternative health consumer networks such as NaturalNews.com and Mercola.com, millions of health and environmental-minded consumers are starting to demand that the $60 billion “natural” products industry take GMO products off their shelves, or at least clearly label them, so that consumers can seek certified organic and other GMO-free alternatives.
In an interview at the Green Festival in San Francisco on April 9, Alexis Baden-Mayer, OCA Campaign Director, explained the strategy behind the Millions Against Monsanto Truth-in-Labeling Campaign.
“Over 90% of Americans want GE-tainted foods labeled. Why? So that we can avoid buying these foods. This is a major reason why millions of us are buying certified organic products, which preclude the use of GE ingredients, as well as toxic chemicals and animal drugs. Since the politicians in Washington apparently prefer to listen to Monsanto rather than their constituents, we need to put our efforts where we currently have the most power, in our local communities, especially at the retail grocery store level, where 50 million of us are regularly buying certified organic and so-called ‘natural’ foods.
“What most green consumers don’t understand yet, is that most of the so-called “natural” processed foods and animal products (which make up 2/3 of the sales of Whole Foods Market) that we are still buying are GMO-contaminated. Either they contain GMO ingredients like soy, corn, canola, cottonseed oil or sugar beet sweetener, or else the animals have been force-fed fed a steady diet of GMO grains and drugs.
“We need to clean up our act and walk our talk in the green and natural products sector. We need to tell natural food giants like Whole Foods or Trader Joe’s that you can’t claim to support GMO labeling, and then proceed to sell billions of dollars of unlabeled GMO food in your stores, greenwashed as ‘natural.’ We’re protesting this week in front of Whole Foods Market and Trader Joe’s to make our views on GMOs absolutely clear. Like our banners say: ‘GMOs: Don’t buy them! Don’t sell them! Don’t grow them!’ Once we drive GMOs out of our organic and natural food stores, or at least force retailers to label them, we will then be able to turn our attention to conventional supermarkets and do the same thing.”
“But this means we’ve got to build a mass movement of Millions Against Monsanto. By World Food Day, October 16, we plan to mobilize a powerful and unprecedented coalition that can pressure, and if necessary boycott, industry leaders such as Whole Foods and Trader Joe’s…”
Across the U.S. and the world, people are fed up. Moving beyond ineffectual compromise and co-existence with a green-washed business-as-usual and politics-as-usual, more and more of us are drawing lines in the sand. Nuclear power, genetic engineering, dirty coal and other out-of-control technologies have revealed themselves for what they really are: deadly threats to our survival. Monsanto has deservedly become one of the most hated corporations on earth. It’s time to drive their evil products out of the marketplace, starting with the green or natural products sector, utilizing the most powerful tools at our disposal, public education, agitation, and Truth-in-Labeling. Get up. Stand up for your rights. Tell Whole Foods Market and Trader Joe’s to stop selling Monsanto’s unlabeled genetically modified organisms. Join the Millions Against Monsanto Campaign. http://www.MillionsAgainstMonsanto.org

Natural Acne Scar Treatment – How to Cure Acne From Within… Naturally
By Jason Ethan Most of us suffer from bouts of acne as we enter our teens. We cannot get rid of the embarrassing and often painful spots fast enough. It can be a long, tough road to getting rid of acne. Some even start avoiding social gatherings because of their embarrassment. However, you should not let it discourage you from living freely. Acne is completely curable by natural acne scar treatment. It only takes a bit of dedication and discipline to get rid of it quickly. Acne, whose Latin name is Acne vulgaris, is a skin disease brought on by the rapid hormonal changes in our body. When we hit puberty, most of us suffer from cases of inflammation across the face. While it clears up in most cases by the late teens and the early twenties, some suffer from it well into their thirties and forties. It remains confined to the face and upper neck in most cases, but severe cases can spread to the chest, back and shoulders as well. There are numerous ways to get rid of Acne vulgaris. While most of them act only on the surface � such as creams, facial washes, etc., some act internally in a bid to cure acne. Internal treatments include both medication and natural remedies. Using medication may seem easier and more effective at first. They clear up the acne within days of starting the treatment, but they are not as effective in the long run. Your body can become resistant to the medications, or the chemicals present in them can adversely affect the body. So be wary of using this method as a permanent cure to get rid of acne quickly. This is why you need to start paying attention to treat acne from within ie, natural acne scar treatment. Since the disease is caused due to the hormonal imbalances of the body, it is a good idea to work inside the body to get rid of it. The countless toxic substances we come across in our lives also aggravate the situation. Acne is the result of the accumulation of the toxins and you should find a way to get rid of it. You can begin by looking at your lifestyle. Diet and exercise plays and important role in the fitness of the body. Foods, which have a high glycemic index, increase the severity of acne and should be avoided or taken in low quantities. It is important that you take vitamins so that their deficiency does not cause acne. Keep yourself fit with regular exercise, which helps in flushing out the toxins that cause acne. Your hygiene also plays a part in the process. Washing and exfoliating prevents dead cells and excessive oils from accumulating in the pores. Remember, blocked pores lead to formation of acne. The most important natural remedy that helps to get rid of zit fast is water. Drink lots of water to rid your body of toxins, which causes this ailment. You can clear acne naturally by utilizing these methods. They may not produce as quick a result as the others, but the results are much more permanent. You can access Natural Acne Scar Treatment easily at home. You can attain your confidence and self-esteem by getting rid of Acne vulgaris naturally, Jason Ethan.

By Darrell Miller Eighty Seven Percent Of All Type 2 Diabetes Can Be Prevented Naturally It is a fact that almost 90% of Type 2 diabetes can be prevented by attention to diet and the use of specific supplements. However, before having a look at these possibilities, we shall first have a look at what type 2 diabetes is so that the means of prevention can be better understood. Diabetes is a condition, not a disease. It cannot be passed from one person to another, and there is evidence that it is hereditary since it tends to run in families. In the past it tended to develop later in life, although the modern lifestyle appears to have made it more common now in children and young adults. Diabetes occurs when the level of glucose in your blood becomes higher than it should be. The reason for this is twofold: either the body produces no or insufficient insulin or it cannot use the insulin that is produced. Sugars and other carbohydrates are metabolized to glucose that is the body’s source of energy. The parts of your body that do this are the mitochondria that are contained within your body cells, and the hormone insulin is essential in allowing this to happen. When the concentration of glucose in your blood reaches a certain level, the pancreas secretes insulin into your blood. The insulin is synthesized in special cells called the islets of Langerhans, after the person who discovered them. Also produced is glucagon which is also secreted into your bloodstream, and the glucagons and the insulin work together to ensure that your blood glucose levels remain stable (when everything is working correctly). Glucagon is secreted when your glucose levels are low, and its presence in the bloodstream stimulates the conversion of the emergency energy store in the liver (glycogen) to glucose in order to maintain this stability. Insulin, on the other hand, is released after you have consumed a meal, and your glucose levels are high What insulin does is to stimulate the cells of your body to convert glucose to energy and either use it immediately, or store it as glycogen for use later. By means of these two substances, the level of glucose in your blood is maintained at safe levels – normally. If something happens to the supply of insulin, then the blood sugar level will continue to rise until the bloodstreams contains too much glucose, a condition known as hyperglycemia. The symptoms are excessive thirst, a frequent desire to urinate, fungal infections or thrush around the genital area (due to yeasts and sugar fermentation), and various others such as mood swings, cramps, dizziness and a feeling of tiredness and weakness. Type 1 diabetes occurs when the body produces no insulin, and the only possible treatment is continual insulin injections. Type 2 diabetes is defined in two ways. Either your body does not make enough insulin for your needs, or the cells in your body cannot use the insulin produced properly. It is Type 2 diabetes we are concerned with here, and that we shall be exclusively discussing. With Type 2 diabetes, insulin shots can be provided, but there are other factors that can also help to resolve the problem. Before discussion treatment or prevention, you should be aware of the complications that Type 2 diabetes can lead to. Hyperglycemia is not common with this type of diabetes, but it can develop. If it does then it can be a life-threatening condition needing a rapid injection of insulin into the bloodstream Symptoms prior to the critical stage are drowsiness and dehydration, although as stated, this is more commonly associated with Type 1 diabetes where regular insulin injections is the normal treatment. Longer term complications of Type 2 include kidney damage, hardening of the arteries, eye problems, impotence and problems with your circulation. Nerve damage can also occur, and it is important that you avoid these by changing your diet and lifestyle. These problems occur if you have had high blood glucose levels over a long period of time, and you therefore have time to take the steps necessary to avoid them if you start now. The same steps will also help you to avoid the condition from occurring. So what are these steps you should take? The first is to look carefully at your diet. A healthy balanced diet is essential if you are to beat your condition naturally and avoid the potential longer term side effects. Diabetes is associated with the overweight and obese. That is not to say that only these people become diabetic, but the majority are. Most people with Type 2 diabetes are overweight, and although around 65% of Americans are overweight or obese, a considerably higher proportion of those with Type 2 diabetes are overweight. The first and obvious action to take to avoid this type of diabetes would therefore be to lose weight, and adopt a healthy diet that is free from junk food, trans fats and alcohol, all of which contribute to obesity. The next is to look to your blood pressure and keep it normal, and also to keep your low density lipoproteins (LDL) low. These affect the propensity for your blood cholesterol to deposit in your arteries, especially if they are oxidized by free radicals. A good antioxidant content is therefore recommended in your diet. Although blood pressure and high LDL levels do not directly contribute to diabetes, they are risk factors that could increase the risk to your health if you are diabetic. You should eat a diet that is high in whole grains and fiber, and eat lean meats and fish rather than fatty foods. Stick to complex carbohydrates that metabolize to glucose slowly and steadily, rather than starchy foods that produce a sudden sugar rush that will give you problems and could promote Type 2 diabetes in those that are prone to it. Specific supplements that you could take include chromium picolinate that can not only be used to treat existing diabetes patients but also to reduce your chances of developing Type 2 diabetes. Studies involving the use of chromium picolinate on patients with this type of diabetes have been very positive, resulting in reduced blood sugar, lipid and insulin levels. The optimum dosage is around 500 micrograms twice daily. Such treatment has been shown to both prevent and reverse Type 2 diabetes. Magnesium is another specific supplement that studies have suggested can lower the risk of developing this type of diabetes. Magnesium rich foods have also been found to be effective, and the fact that a magnesium deficiency can lead to diabetes supports the findings that its use can help to prevent it. Green leafy vegetables such as spinach, and beans nuts and seeds are generally rich in magnesium. Vitamin D can also help protect against the development of diabetes. Although the research is relatively new, it has been established that the cells that produce insulin are affected by a lack of vitamin D in the blood, and low levels of vitamin D can also led to insulin resistance. If you spend more time out in the sun, you should have less chance of contracting Type 2 diabetes, although you could also take a supplement. Although Type 2 diabetes is not as serious as Type 1, no form of diabetes is desirable to have, and ultimately both types can be extremely serious. You should do what you can to avoid diabetes, and Type 2 is easier to avoid then Type 1. Diet, weight and supplementation as described above will all help to avoid contracting this condition, so follow the advice, especially if you are overweight and have a sweet tooth.
