On Behalf Of Renee JudkinsThursday, May 19, 2005 18:33 Subject: Re: Let's Do It HealthyHi,Thank you for sharing this info. I am a cancersurvivor who should have been dead 3 years ago.Despite having to go thru the most horrible cheoa andradiation treatment, that, in itself, should havekilled me, my diet and metablic nutrition saved mylife and this is documented by my cancer doctors.I just wanted to add a little bit to your info. Acancer prevention diet should be completely void ofall animal protein, including dairy products, exceptfor maybe a little "high in Omega 3 fatty acids" fish.And, WOW, don't even get me started on sodas,especially colas!!! Did you know that phosphoric acidis actually petrified bat dung? Food (or not!) forthought! Sodas, especially colas, cause extreme acidicconditions in the body. The more acidic a person is,the more unhealthy and likely to develop lifethreatening, degenerative and autoimmune diseases. Ourgoal should be to be as alkaline as possible. Nodisease, not even cancer, can live in a totallyalkaline environment. So stay away from the sodas.Even most diet sodas contain Aspartame, a knownneurotoxin, as a sweetener. Aspartame damages theneurotransmitters that carry messages to and from thebrain. Not worth the risk!Again, thank you for sharing your valuable informationto those of us who are always seeking nutritionalanswers.Blessings,Renee--- Jacy <jacymail wrote:> A cancer prevention diet is one that is high in> fiber, low in fat> (especially animal fat), minimizes or excludes> alcohol and includes generous> portions of fresh fruits and vegetables.>----------> ----> Just when you thought it was safe to reach for a> soda - it's not just the> caffeine that can have adverse effects.
