Please note the following :
CANCER : Not all cancers are the same. 1/3 is curable. 1/3 is preventable.
2 factors of cancer that cannot be controlled are AGE &
FAMILY HISTORY.
CAUSES OF CANCER:
1. Smoking
is very often the main cause of cancer.
It
kills us silently and drains money from us quietly. There’re 4,000 harmful chemicals (though in
diluted form) in one stick of cigarette.
Taking one puff is 600 times worse than inhaling exhaust fumes from
vehicles.
2. Some
foods that cause cancer is :
a. Barbecued
Food
b. Deep
Fried Food
c. Overheating
Meat
d. Food that
is high in fat causes our bile to secrete acid that contains a chemical which
is a promoter of cancer cells.
e. Food that
contains preservatives, too much salt or nitrates, e.g. canned food, salted egg
& veggies, sausages, etc.
f. Overnight
Rice (where Aflatoxin is accumulated)
g. Food that
is low in fibre : Our body needs 25gm of both soluble & insoluble fibre
daily. We must drink at least 1.5 litres
of plain water a day.
h. Contaminated
Food (e.g. moulded bread causes our body to secrete toxins that may eventually
lead to liver cancer in the long run.
Never eat bread that is kept in room temperature for more than 2 days
especially in a humid weather.)
3. Types of
fat and which is the best?
Highly Recommended for Health :
a. Olive Oil
- It does not absorb in our body.
b. Fish Oil
- Omega 3 (contained in NI’s Circulytes) has poly-unsaturated fat. It’s good for our brain cells.
c. Peanut
Oil - It contains Vitamin E. A small
dosage is recommended only.
4. Not
Recommended for Health
a. Vegetable
Fat - Palm oil is worse than coconut oil.
It is high in cholesterol and highly unsaturated.
b. Coconut
Oil - It has saturated fat.
5. Specific
Food & Beverages
a. Egg when
eaten too much can cause High Colon Cancer, Risk Ovary Cancer, Prostate Cancer.
b. Cabbage
is highly recommended for health reason.
c. Tomato
is best eaten raw with a bit of olive oil for better absorption. Other alternative is to take tomato
sauce. Do not boil – tomatoes became
acidic when boiled.
d. A little
coffee is good because it contains 2 anti- oxidants. Inhale coffee aroma for half each day is
equivalent to eating 2 oranges a day.
However, the residue of over-burned coffee is extremely bad for
health. It can cause cancer.
e. Tea, as
long as it is in its original tealeaves and not processed into BOH or Lipton
packets, it is good for health. Tea
contains 30 anti-oxidants. Recommended
dosage is a cup a day.
