Colon Cancer was soy

[Guest guest]

Lisa,

 

I'm not sure about the soy, but since your concern is the prevention

of colon cancer, one of your priorities (IMO) should be to maintain a

healthy intestinal flora. I read into your post, that some foods may

be causing you gas, so I suspect that there may be some bacterial

imbalance.

 

My focus has been on CFS/FMS but in studying this and finding the

need for healthy gut flora for this condition, I talked with a Dr.

that said that there was a correlation to colon cancer and an

alkaline colon. The good bacteria in the colon help keep the

environment slightly acidic. In other articles I've read online

there appears to be a connection between calcium absorption and an

acidic colon (not sure if this is true). I have read elsewhere that

calcium is good for prevention of colon cancer.

 

Anyway, thought I'd share this with you. My parting thoughts on

soy. The asian cultures that use soybeans heavily use it after it

has been fermented. From some of the things I've read (not

scientific articles) I don't eat the stuff.

 

The program that I've put together for CFS/FMS I believe has

universal application for many chronic conditions and would be ideal

for maintaining ones health.

 

All the best,

Jim
