Now, don't get hung up on Fit for Life - there are other good diet advice out there - What I am trying to say is - look into diet & lifestyle change if you are diagnosed with breast cancer! I had an operation the same month, and they removed the lump. Only the lump, not my breast. Then I was on radiation treatment for 3 months, until May. I was extremely weak and sick from the radiation treatment, I had to lie in bed for months after the treatment ended. At one point I just didn't know what I was going to do, I was so sick, and at Christmas 1. I couldn't even open my Christmas presents. I was lying in bed, I was just too weak and always having these chest coughs and all of this stuff. I thought I would never get well again. Someone had just given my husband Kenneth the book Fit For Life and he told me, - you know I have been reading this and maybe you ought to try it. And I said - bring me the book, I'll read it. I was ready for a change.”“I then read the book - and the book's principles are based on the Natural Hygiene principles, and once I read the book I started cold turkey and have been living healthfully ever since. Check your dictionary if you wonder.) One of the things, that they tell you to do, is getting rid of what we call the standard American diet, which the Natural Hygiene refers to as the SAD diet. Also, that in our country we are not really a healthy society, we are a diseased society. The only way to completely heal breast cancer.The 7 Essentials System .

![]() We do not have health care in this country - we have what's called disease care. And I agree with this more and more. Once I had learnt the principles of Natural Hygiene and begun to implement them little by little, things were happening to my body that Natural Hygiene tells you are going to happen if you try to live naturally. The first thing that happened was that my body started detoxifying rapidly, which was not too pleasant for a while. I was having diarrhea and had to run to the bathroom all the time, and also a runny nose, headaches, fever and so on. But I soon started feeling much better. When I say I tried living naturally, I mean living in harmony with nature, especially eating the right foods, more fruits and vegetables and less meat/chicken/fish and processed foods. ![]() I actually started eating almost a vegetarian diet, with lots of fruits and raw vegetables and green salads. One of the things I had had problems with in the past was my cholesterol- count. Of course there is always the treatment to lower the cholesterol. My cholesterol was at 2. I became a Natural Hygienist, and I have the tests to prove it. But I am happy to announce that in 1. I was being followed for what was going on in my body, and I had multiple complaints from some of the medications that I was having to take. After the operation and radiation I was given a popular drug, that is taken for the type of cancer I had, called Tamoxifen. It has many side effects. Gives you hot flashes, and insomnia and many many things. And the doctors then wish to give you different types of medication to counteract these side effects. I found that the medications were creating more problems than they were worth as far as my thinking ability at work and all kinds of activities. So I chose to go the natural way and not take anything. But I continued to take Tamoxifen, while at the same time eating better and living more healthfully, and the side- effects started going down. After some time I even stopped taking Tamoxifen. The symptoms didn't disappear completely the first years, but were alleviated greatly. Now I am so much healthier than I have been, ever in my whole life I think. And my doctor was amazed when he read the report and saw how well I was doing. Once I could see what was happening to my body, all the positive changes, I became very excited about it. When I had my routine visits with my oncologist and with my doctor I shared Natural Hygiene with them, and told them how I had read the book Fit for Life. And how I was going on a (almost) meatless diet, and how I was eating more fruits and vegetables. Also I was being critical, I hate to say it, about the standard American diet. And my doctor was amazed when he read the report and saw how well I was doing, and said that he wished that more of our society would go ahead and do what I was doing. Well, it has started, but we haven't arrived at getting America really on a healthy program. But the food pyramid has changed, and now we are told to eat more fruits and more vegetables. Also of course we should eat very little processed food. Still Fit for Life is one of my favorite books, that I read over again when I feel I need it. After Christmas time, after eating too much unhealthy foods, I usually get a bad flu or a cold - or some other symptoms of a healing crisis. Then I may take a week with fresh juices, fruit and vegetable juices, take it easy and read Fit for Life - a great book that explains to you what a healing crisis is, how the body detoxifies, and why drugs actually may be harmful. I have also tried fasting, never water- fasting though, which is THE method used by Natural Hygiene doctors for serious diseases. My husband and I both did a 5 week juice- fast together, which was great. I was amazed to see all the stuff that came out of my body during the fast, I was eliminating toxins like crazy. This was a couple of years after my diet change. In 1. 99. 9 I wanted to lose some weight, and my dentist recommended the Zone- books by Barry Sears. These made me understand better the interplay between our food and the hormones in the blood (e. I also eat very little bread, potatoes, yams, rice and other starchy or sugary foods and I eat more fats and more proteins, some animal proteins. No more protein at one meal than what equals the palm of my hand. Lots of salads just as before, more avocado, nuts, more eggs. As an afternoon snack I may e. And it is much easier to control my weight. I just found out (Nov. Natural Hygiene is beginning to study and incorporate the insulin- mechanism, see e. Stanley Bass. I have received e- mails saying - this must be a contradiction, first you eat lots of fruits and vegetables, then you cut down on fruit and increase the proteins. How long you can go on with such a diet is very individual, you have to watch the signs of fruit- overeating: is your weight beginning to go up, are you feeling too tired (symptoms due to too much sugar), are your teeth loosening, is your hair too dry (due to too much acid). Perhaps I was slowly wearing down the insulin- mechanism, something you can do by overeating on sugar and starches year after year. Here as well you can go for many years before getting low on some amino acid, and perhaps into anemia. I marvel at how healthy I have become. My husband and I are on the go all the time. We both eat very well, lots of salads, whole foods instead of processed foods. I consider rest and sleep high priorities, and I may take a short fast occasionally, e. I think this may be important to counteract boneloss at my age, besides a healthy diet, a non- acid- forming diet. In my practice with Natural Hygiene, I am being more intuned with nature, and I am glad to say that it has made a big difference in my life. These years I have learnt a lot about my own body that I didn't know, and now I feel in control, instead of being scared. And I really hope that many of you will be motivated to practice the art of living in harmony with nature, and perhaps also will learn more about Natural Hygiene, the Laws of Life and how the body heals itself. Since medicines/drugs are very rarely used in Natural Hygiene, it is a truly low- cost method. It gives result fast, and has a no- nonsense scientific approach, that I like.

Typically used as a weight- loss technique, intermittent fasting has also been shown to battle chronic disease and even fight aging. Fasting and Cancer. Fasting is nothing new. In fact, the practice has been part of medical recommendations and religious practices. But now we have scientific evidence to back up what we intuitively knew: Fasting can help the body rid itself of disease. One of the first major studies took place in 1. Another more recent study? How does simply moving food from one time of day to another really make that much difference? The answer lies in how the body and its cells react to what they perceive as “starvation mode.”. His study results were explained this way: “In essence, these cells are waiting out the lean period, much like hibernating animals. But cancerous tumors respond differently to starvation; they do not stop growing, nor do they hibernate because their genetic pathways are stuck in an . Because the body’s healthy cells were in this hibernation mode, the cancer cells tried to find other ways to divide and spread, without much success. It may be trying to replace them, but it can.

There are actually many different types of schedules for intermittent fasting. One of the more popular is the Leangains. I like it because it’s the same schedule every day, which makes adjusting to it quite easy: Before you get started, remember it’s not wise to begin fasting if your diet still needs improvement. You want to make sure you’re consuming the right calories during your periods of eating. Finally, always listen to your body. Every body responds differently, so be aware of your energy levels and adjust accordingly. Tweet to him @Hope. Cancer. Mex! About the author Oscar Puig serves as the nutritionist at Hope.
