Having an alkaline body, the cure for cancer?
I was hearing from someone that if you have an alkaline body, it will be very difficult for you to get cancer... is this true? any comments on this?

Try drinking Wheatgrass. It has lots of Oxygen and is so beneficial. I juice my own. Get it from a local person. I go directly to his greenhouse. Many people cannot drink it easily, so start out with two ounces, 2x;s daily. I drink 4-5oz, tastes sweet to me, so I believe my body right now is alkaline.

I found some really good books on Amazon. One not only had the types of foods that were alkaline but also had a lot of good cooking receipes in it. Another one was just a list of foods and their acid or alkaine content.

That's it !!! I do not have the books here with me and could not remember the titles--

Every human CELL needs oxygen to properly burn glucose. If there isnt enough oxygen then the glucose is only broken into two nucleotides instead of four and it takes four nucleotides to form DNA. No DNA, and you will get a mutant cell replication (disease). A slightly alkaline PH will hold 100 times the oxygen as a slightly acidic PH state. Juicing vegetables skyrocketed my PH. So does food grade hydrogen peroxide. That is a quick fix. Long term you need to stop doing everything wrong and start doing everything right :) read books

Gabe--very interesting !! Not sure if I read that before--might have, but since I read so much I forget some of the stuff. I know since I have been eating a lot of raw veggies my stomach feels a lot better. I don't eat but very little red meat any more. Chicken breast and some fish and salmon too. Never heard of taking the food grade hydrogen peroxide to up the alkaline in ones system. I am all for quick fixes to get things going and then doing the right thing for long term. Anywhere I could go to look this up to see how it works??

All it is is extra oxygen. Oxygen is Natural. Drink it, breath it, bathe in it.

Marilyn, I totally agree with the NATURALIST approach. It is the ideal way to live. And if I am healthy and vibrant then I would not need a manmade hydrogen peroxide. However in a state of distress I would consider all options, mostly anything KT reccomends.

Inside each cell are mitochondria. These mitochondria are where the energy of the cell is created, in the form of a molecule called ATP. The chemical process by which ATP are made start with what is called "The Krebs Cycle" or the "Citric Acid Cycle." This cycle of chemical reactions leads to the creation of ATP.
But as a spin-off of the Krebs Cycle, the Electron Transport Chain (ETC), creates even more ATP than the Krebs Cycle.
In a cancer cell, the Krebs Cycle is broken. Since the ETC is a spin-off of the Krebs Cycle, it is broken also. The result of breaking the Krebs Cycle is that the energy in the cell (i.e. the number of ATP molecules) drops dramatically.
The human cell is a very sophisticated living thing. When the Krebs Cycle is broken, the cell is generally able to fix the cycle, thus restoring the energy in the cell.
But with a cancer cell, the cell is not able to restore its Krebs Cycle. Instead the broken Krebs Cycle and broken ETC are maintained.
So what possibly could maintain the break in the Krebs Cycle and ETC? What could make it impossible for the cell to fix itself month after month and year after year.
Combining this question with the many discoveries which relate microbes to cancer cells, leads to the following explanation:
1) Due to a weakened cell membrane, which can be caused by a carcinogen or many other things, a microbe is able to enter inside a normal cell,
2) The microbe, once inside, intercepts the glucose entering the cell (most microbes eat glucose),
3) The microbe excretes "mycotoxins," dangerous hormones and perhaps a thick slime (mycotoxins are the normal excretions of microbes),
4) Because mycotoxins are very, very acidic, the inside of the cell becomes highly acidic, which is a characteristic of cancer cells (in fact the longer a cell is cancerous, generally the more acidic it becomes),
5) The cell's mitochondria (which convert glucose into energy) get very little glucose because the microbe has intercepted most of the glucose,
6) What the cell's mitochondria does get is lots of mycotoxins and other harmful garbage, which it cannot convert into energy,
7) The mitochondria's energy level (ATP provides the key energy of a cell, but ATP is created by the Krebs Cycle and ETC) plummets because it is living in a sea of filth, meaning the ATP energy drops,
8) Signals are sent to the insulin receptors and glucose receptors on the cell membranes to grab more glucose,
9) More glucose enters the cell (about 15 times more), but most of the glucose is intercepted by the microbe (which may be multiplying) and the mitochondria are bathing in an increasingly large sea of mycotoxins, dangerous hormones and possibly slime. Technically, the glucose is normally converted into pyruvate and it is the pyruvate than enters the mitochondria.
10) Because there is a limit to how high the activity of these two types of receptors can become there is no way for the mitochondria (and thus the ATP) to get enough glucose/pyruvate and energy,
11) The cell is now officially cancerous because its energy level drops (the ATP energy levels can be compared to the steps of a ladder) and it is defined to be anaerobic.
In this process, two things happen. First, because of the microbe(s) the break in the Krebs Cycle and ETC are broken as long as the microbe(s) are inside the cell.
Second, each cancer cell is turned into a very healthy microbe(s), living inside a very sick human cell. Because the microbe(s) are healthy, and the cell is sick, it makes it very difficult to kill the microbe without killing the cell.
I don't know how accurate the above sequence is, but it gives the reader some idea of how microbes can cause a cell to become anaerobic. I think it is not a matter of fermentation, rather it is a matter of the mitochondria being starved of glucose and choking in a sea of acidic mycotoxins.

But understanding the "microbe theory" of cancer did not fully explain why these microbes were able to get into the cells of some people, but not others. The evidence is clear that many things can damage the cell wall membranes or other parts of the cell wall.
For example, trans-fatty-acids, which are very rigid molecules, attach to cell walls and block "ports" that allow glucose to get into the cell, causing type 2 diabetes. But it is also possible these fats can cause weaknesses or gaps in the cell walls allowing microbes to enter?
It turns out that a "carcinogen" is anything that weakens or damages cell walls, allowing microbes to enter in. There are many, many things that can do this, such as:
1) A very acidic diet, which allows the microbes to change forms, proliferate and become more aggressive,
2) Leaky gut syndrome, which allows unprocessed food to get into the blood stream,
3) Numerous chemicals and processed substances,
4) A substance that cuts internal tissue, forming a small pool of blood in the tissue, which allows the microbes to concentrate and weakens cell membranes (over 90% of all cancers start in tissue), etc.
So what "causes cancer," the many things that damage cell walls and allow microbes to enter in, or the microbes themselves which cause the cells to become anaerobic? The answer, of course, is both.
The bottom line is that in the briefest way of describing things, cancer is caused by the following chain reaction:
1) Farming practices (which also indirectly affects both dairy and meat) have virtually eliminated trace elements from our diet and have introduced many very bad things into our bodies. Our food is more acidic, fungus grows in foods it never used to grow in, etc. The nutrients in the foods of today are but a shadow of the nutrients in the same foods of 60 years ago. My father warned me, in the 1960s, of this trend.
2) The way food is processed is an abomination. Numerous substances are added to food for appearance or flavor (e.g. trans-fatty acids, food dyes, etc.); enzymes are killed by cooking; salt is virtually always added; aspartame is added to drinks to make them sweet; MSG (which is hidden in more than 30 different food additives - virtually every processed food in America has MSG in it but you rarely see it on the label), and numerous other chemicals, are added for a variety of reasons, etc., etc.
3) Most people have horrible "Western diets" composed of too much meat, too much dairy products, too much salt, too much processed foods, etc. etc. Even people who claim to "eat healthy foods" have poor diets, from a cancer perspective. For example, peanuts are considered a "healthy" food, but peanuts are loaded with fungus. So is tobacco. The difference between a "healthy diet" and a "cancer diet" will be made clear in the next lesson.
4) The net result of all three of the above items is that our bodies are filled with yeast and fungus, which thrive on these kinds of foods. They love the acidic nature of the foods we eat. The attempt of our body to maintain a constant pH also causes a multitude of health problems. It turns out that at least one microbe has several different forms: a virus, a yeast, a fungus, a mould and a bacteria (and one type of bacteria becomes as large as an amoeba). This is not to say that all bacteria are pleomorphic, but at least one of them is and it is the one that is most often associated with cancer.
It is these pleomorphic microbes that may explain why so many live viruses end up in vaccines.
All of this was known about, and published in scientific journals, in 1950 and before (see the book: Four Women Against Cancer by Alan Cantwell, M.D., who was himself involved in these discoveries). Even Royal Rife, in the 1930s, knew of a microbe that was sometimes a virus and sometimes a bacteria.
But these discoveries were suppressed and ignored.......

.... The reality is that the medical profession's version of biology, namely that of Pasteur, is totally wrong, and that the theories of the far more talented Antoine Bechamp, and those of Claude Bernard, Günther Enderlein, Virginia Livingston, and others, were right and have been suppressed for profit reasons (i.e. in case you have been living in a cave the last 60 years and haven't noticed - the medical profession is not interested in what really causes disease, they are interested in treating the profitable symptoms of disease).
5) Now things get tricky. When a carcinogen is introduced into the body (and one such carcinogen is caused by leaky gut syndrome), it changes the cell membranes or blocks ports in the cell wall. In other words, individual cells suddently become vulnerable to the entry of the microbes (e.g. fungus, mould, bacteria, etc.) into normal cells.
6) Once the microbes enter into the normal cells, the cells become anaerobic. Microbes are sometimes referred to as scavengers, but regardless of what they normally do, when they get inside a cancer cell it causes the cell to become anaerobic.
7) According to the superb book: Cancer - Cause, Cure and Cover-up, by Ron Gdanski, another thing happens when these microbes are inside the cancer cell. As the cancer cells divide, the cell walls of the new cells are hardened by DNA corruption (via the fungal DNA) and this allows far less oxygen to get into the cell. This may be one reason why the presence of the microbe causes the cell to become anaerobic. His book is also a superb introduction to why so many cancers form in tissue, mentioned above.
8) In any case, it is known that when a cell becomes anaerobic (i.e. glucose fermentation), a dense layer of enzymes coat the outside of the cell wall (or the cell wall becomes "thick"), which would also inhibit oxygen from getting into the cell. Over the past several decades, beginning even before Royal Rife in the 1930s, an absolute consensus has developed among the top alternative cancer researchers (most of whom were M.D.s or PhDs) which makes it perfectly clear that the cancer microbe is the final cause of cancer.
9) The definition of an anaerobic cell is a "cancerous" cell, hence the end result of this chain of events is cancer.

I sort of under stand what you are saying. I had a mole that turned cancerous. It had looked the same for a few years then all of a sudden started turning a different color and growing weird and bigger. Good thing I went to have it checked out early enough. Now I am always checking them and probably going to the doc way to often to have him check things out.
