Cancer and Diet the Missing Link
Cancer and diet the missing link to restoring health. The war on cancer has been going on forever, it turned out as a way to manage corporation’s funds, but it hasn’t done much for the patients.
We wait for an unprecedented breakthrough. Findings that would not just extend lives but rewind the clock turning cancer cells back to normal. Everyone is expecting a new way to kill cancer cells. What is a better approach is turn unhealthy cells back to healthy ones.
This is what you want; the mainstream acceptance of bombarding cancer cells with toxic chemo, and. huge amounts of radiation is counter productive. The secret, nutrients in lieu of drugs, would go a long way to combat this condition.

An analysis that included nearly 400,000 participants finds that those with higher blood levels of vitamin B6 and the essential amino acid methionine (found in most protein) had an associated lower risk of lung cancer, including participants who were current or former smokers, according to a study in the June 16 issue of JAMA.
Previous research has suggested that deficiencies in B vitamins may increase the probability of DNA damage and subsequent gene mutations. The authors write: “Given their involvement in maintaining DNA integrity and gene expression, these nutrients have a potentially important role in inhibiting cancer development, and offer the possibility of modifying cancer risk through dietary changes,” They add that deficiencies in nutrient levels of B vitamins have been shown to be high in many western populations.
One Step Further
Reversing cancer is also possible with the right lifestyle changes. Most medical doctors will not have the knowledge or courage to buck the system. Many patients have, and had stellar results. Others have taken main stream medicine one step further and combined some conventional treatment with a considerable amount of dietary changes.
Paul Brennan, Ph.D., of the International Agency for Research on Cancer, Lyon, France, and colleagues conducted an investigation of B vitamins and methionine status based on serum samples from the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (EPIC) cohort study, which recruited 519,978 participants from 10 European countries between 1992 and 2000, of whom 385,747 donated blood. By 2006, 899 lung cancer cases were identified and 1,770 control participants were individually matched by country, sex, date of birth, and date of blood collection.
Hello Success
The authors write: “Our results suggest that above-median serum measures of both B6 and methionine, assessed on average 5 years prior to disease onset, are associated with a reduction of at least 50 percent on the risk of developing lung cancer. An additional association for serum levels of folate was present, that when combined with B6 and methionine, was associated with a two-thirds lower risk of lung cancer,”
