Cancer Update
1) Every person has cancer cells in the body
2) Cancer cells occur between 6 to more than 10 times in a person's lifetime
3) When the person's immune system is strong, the cancer cells will be destroyed
4) When a person has cancer it indicates the person has nutritional deficiencies. These could due to genetic, and environmental, lifestyle.
5) To overcome nutritional deficiencies, changing diet and include supplements to strengthen the immune system.
6) Chemotherapy involves poisoning the rapidly growing cancer cells, but also destroys healthy cells and can cause organ damage
7) Radiation while destroying cancer cells also burns, scars and damages healthy cells, tissues and organs.
8) Initial treatment with chemo and radiation will reduce tumor size. However prolonged use do not result in more tumor destruction.
9) When the body has too much toxic burden. The immune system is either compromised or destroyed, hence the person can succumb to various kinds of infection and complications.
10) Chemo and radioation can cause cancer cells to mutate and become resistant and difficult to destroy. Surgery can also cause cancer cells to spread.
11) An effective way to battle cancer is to starve the cancer cells by not feeding it with foods it needs to multiply.
Cancer Cells Feed on:
a) sugar substitute
b) Milk
c) Cancer cells thrive in acid environment. A meat-based diet is acidic
d) A diet made of 80% vegetables and juice, whole grains, seeds, nuts, fruits will help body into alkaline environment.
e) Avoid coffee, tea, and chocolate
12) Meat protein is difficult to digest
13) Cancer cell walls have a tough protein covering. Eat less meat will allow body's killer cells to destroy the cancer cells
14) Some supplements build up immune system to enable the bodies own killer cell to destroy the cancer cells.
15) Cancer is a disease of the mind, body and spirit. Bee positive!!! Learn to relax
16) Cancer cells cannot thrive in an oxygenated environment. Exercise daily, deep breathing.

Digestion and Detoxification
I went to a talk by Dr. Gaetano Morello, ND at Mantra with Diane, my co-worker from Pharmaca. The topic was Digestion and Detoxification.
He begin the lecture with North Pacific trash Vortex.. It's garbage in pacific ocean size of Texas. We are living in toxic world.
America- fast food on every corner.. causing diabetes.. chronic condition.
1) water can't get inside the cell --> thirsty
2) sugar can't get inside the cell --> tired
3) increase sugar in body
More than 1 in 4 have GI condition
Impaired digestion cause- fatigue, arthritis, allergies, diabetes, cancer..
GI is 70% of our immune system..
Decline of Digestive health- lack of enzyme, poor diet, bacteria, candida, toxins ---> leaky gut ---> autoimmune disease
Digestive system consist of:
Mouth, stomach, duodenum, small intestine, large intestine, rectum.... Our stomach's PH is 1.2, need to keep it acidic. Stomach lining protect the rest of the body.
Conventional Medicine such as Magnesium, aluminum, calcium raise PH ---> block nutrient and mineral absorption.
How to build a Healthy GI tract? Probiotic, Enzymes, and DGL
Enzymes break down food. Without enzyme, food can't be digestived and absorbed, and we would starve no matter what we ate.
Enzyme deficiency ---> indigestion, gas, bloating
DGL
- Deglycyrrhizinated licorice root is clinically studied for treatment of peptic ulcers.
Detoxification
- Increase Vitality by reducing toxicity
Toxic world---- Environmental influence is #1 cause of diseases!
Good detox includes
Fiber, laxative, and liver support
Week 1- increase antioxidants
Week 2-NutriClean Detox system
NutriClean HepatoCleanse
- remove toxins and supports healthy liver function.
Conclusion
Fix digestive tract-- > Probiotic, enzyme, and detox!
Have a good night!

Why our health matters
There is 3 V's ( visiblity, value, and validation ) in a business.
Visibility is the awareness in the community of who you are
Value is that we are not a discount store, we show caring, and love to our customers.
Validation is read in books such as Andrew Weil's "Why our health matters", it tells you the future of health care = integrative medicine.
In his book, Dr. Weil breaks in 3 parts
Part I
Where we are
"I now understand that when you lose your health, nothing else that you have matters. All you can think about is being well again."
Why is health care so expensive?
1. we give little care to prevention of disease and promotion of health. The whole industry of health care is geared toward intervention in established disease- much of it preventable.
"An ounce of prevention is worth a lb of cure"
2. intervention is expensive due to costly technology.
3 Myths
1. Because America has the most expensive health care in the world, it must have the best.
2. our medical technology is our greatest asset
3. our medical school excel at creating world's finest physicians.
Part II
Where we need to be
Imagine that a doctor visit of the future would be like this: A worried mother calls her family doctor and tells his receptionist that her son is sick. The receptionist offers the appointment for later that day and adds that for a moderate extra fee that doctor can make a house call if necessary. (Reminding me of Little house of a praire)
Reverse
Trend #1 Deterioration of Medical Philosphy and Practice- The need for low-tech, high-touch medicine.... teach people how not to get sick in the first place.
Today far more people take prescribed medicine than ever before. For example, at least one million children, mostly boys, take Ritalin and Adderall for ADHD. Even more people, old and young, take antidepressants, and pharmacists fill more then 35 million prescriptions for sleep medicines
Trend #2 Failure to Provide Health Care of All
Trend #3 The Growing Influence of Money
Doctors of the Future
"The doctor of the future will give no medicine, but will interest his patient in the care of the human frame, in diet, and in the cause and prevention of disease... "Thomas Edison
Medicine of the Future
"Alternative", "Integrative" medicine
Traditional and modern chinese medicine. Mind/Body, nutrition, Dietary Supplementation, physical activity.
Part III
How to get there
Preventive Benefits of Dietary Modification
- Risk of cancer, heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and many other chronic diseases can be reduced with adequate intake of fruits and vegetables, teas, chocolate, onion, broccoli, soy.
Preventive Benefits of Dietary Supplementation
- Antioxidants
- lutein
- B-complex
- Selenium
- Vitamin C
- Vitamin D
Preventive Benefit of Exercise
Preventive Benefit of Stress Management
I like Dr. Weil's vision. His vision is very similar to market america's.
If your health is important to you, you would go for prevention instead of intervention...before it's too late..
My experiences...
Why is that people drink coffee day and night and continues to do so even though they understand perhaps I should have drink chamomile tea and take herbal remedy such as DGL to increase mucous lining of the stomach.
Why is that people don't believe in probiotic and says they will talk to their doctors and decide.
Why is there so many people taking prescription pain killers and can't get off of them.
So many people have allergies due to diets..... allrgies includes sneezing, congestion, skin problems, etc...
