Cancer Fighting in the Real World - Confessions of a Fudger

[Guest guest]

There are two schools of thought on naturally beating cancer. One

school says that you can beat cancer with the right diet (Budwig, raw

food, vegan, juicing or whatever) and an austere lifestyle. The other

school, says that while perhaps you can avoid cancer with the right

diet and lifestyle, and, if you can be super strict, you might even

beat cancer once it has gained a foothold, in the trade-off world we

live in, you likely need the natural and proven cancer-fighters nature

has provided along with the right diet, veggies, juices, lifestyle,

etc. I think that in the real world, it may be very hard to insure

the untainted, nutrient rich vegetables and fruits that nature

provided generations ago before chemical fertilizers, chemical

contaminants and soil depletion came along. And then there is the

fudge factor.

 

I don't know about the rest of you, but I fudge. Oh, I do a lot of

healthy things and take some very good supplements - like omega-3

oils, turmeric, " oleander soup " , alpha-lilpoic acid, milk thistle,

selenium, lycopene, etc. But, even as I sit here typing while

munching raw almonds and dipping brocolli and carrots into a home-made

olive oil, spinach and garlic dip, I have to concede that the green

tea I am drinking was brewed with tap water, the same source the ice

cubes came from - and I won't even begin to tell you how I adulterated

my big morning cup of coffee at the counter with all the hazel nut,

southern buttered pecan, almond, carmel and irish creme creamers and

flavorings this morning. Not to mention that (shudder) fast food meal

I grabbed on the run this afternoon.

 

Despite a weekend of clean air and sunshine and some good physical

labor clearing some family land of overgrowth, preaparing a spot for

my cousin's travel trailer, feeding the recently catfish stocked

ponds, there was also a " healthy " amount of beverages consumed and

some charcoal grilled meals on the other side of the balance beam.

And I do not get as much exercise through the week as I should.

 

 

I do not buy all of my fruits and vegetables at an organic only

market, I eat too much processed grains (bread) and I have this damned

sweet tooth that is always whispering sugary thoughts in my ear. No,

I cannot lie and tell you that I practice 100% of what I preach. Now,

if I ever actually develop cancer, I am certain that I would be much

more austere, but, I have to be honest and say that even then I would

likely be less than 100%. In other words I would still fudge, at

leastin some areas. I suspect that the same is true for a lot of us,

and that minimizing the fudging and maximaizing the good things we do

is as good as it will practically get.

 

And so, for us who fudge at least a little on what we consume and our

lifestyle choices, perhaps the best " practical " advice is to try our

best to do as many right things and as few bad things as possible and

also add some proven natural cancer fighters to our arsenal as well.

 

Live long, live healthy, live happy!
