Re: OT fruit and sugar

glogan
 

Rebecca. . last week there was some discussion on Glyonutrients being a useful alternative for fighting cancer, some felt it was good and some felt it wasn't afterall glyconutrients is just another form of sugar...
However we must bear in mind that cancer cells are no different then healthy cells when it comes to competing within the body for any good nutrients cancer cells need the same foods that the healthy cells need to survive the only difference of course when cancer cells rob our body of good nutrients it only makes the cancer stronger but we have another concern and that is if we stop eating all the good nutrients (which includes fruit sugars) our healthy cells will weaken along with the immune system, opening the door for cancer cells to invade other parts of the body, so I would guess that it is important that we not let down our defenses and continue to eat everything that we need to fight the bad invaders in our system. Sounds like we are just defeating the purpose because we keep allowing the cancer cells to revitalize themselves all the time... However that is also a good reason why we have to continuously consume anti-oxidents to fight and destroy cancer cells.... so all we can do is keep fighting until we win the war even if it's only one small battle at a time..

Stay Healthy,

Re: OT fruit and sugar

Wilhelm Hansen
 

Rebecca,
can you point me to where Dr.Budwig said that honey is necessary for the mix? I believe she said that some honey may be used rather than saying that it is necessary. One point that I have observed, which I am not 100% sure about, is that the fo/cc seems to mix better when honey is added - that is before any other ingredients are added. Other ingredients should always be added after the fo/cc (with honey?) is thoroughly mixed.

Refined sugar is bad for you - without a doubt. Dr.Budwig made that clear. She did allow berries, fruit and fruit juices because of their nutritional value, without specifying which ones. This means IMO, that so long as they are taken in reasonable quantities, she was not overly concerned about the sugar content in them. If you wish to consult glycemic index tables and only eat tart fruit and berries that should be fine but perhaps it would be unnecessarily restrictive.

honey and fruit

 

Some Interesting replies on this problem, thank you,

Wilhelm ... No, I cant point you to the reference... I wish I knew more but
unfortunately I don't have her book yet (It's on order from Amazon) but the
info I have from internet sites does say mix honey with the mix and one says use
honey with cereal and pour flax seed oil on it for breakfast,
I am pretty desperate to get a copy of the diet in her own words ,,, can you
tell me if the original (translated of course) is available anywhere on the
internet?

WE have been 'making do' with an amalgam of all the information I can find so
far ... but I'm really confused about the quantities of the mix,
Rebecca


Re: OT--fruit & sugar

 

From: <rdavilajr@...>
I know a person with cancer should not take sugar, but some say that
a little bit of honey is OK.
A LITTLE bit, particularly if not taken on an empty stomach, is fine.

what about the sugar in the fruits?
Most fruit are not very high glycemic (don't cause a big surge in
blood sugar), and many fruit are quite cancer-healing, so I think
they're excellent to eat. I'd just avoid eating a huge amount of
high-glycemic fruit (watermelon, dates, tropical fruit) on an empty
stomach. Best to eat some low-glycemic fruit (berries, peaches, plums,
apple) 1st.

Re: Are we able get PET SCANS under while on BUDWIG

 

My wife Maria Davila had different x-rays and scans done, and the doctors could not diagnose her cancer. It was not until she had a pet scan done that it showed where the cancer was located. As a mater of fact I told the oncologist that after seven days in the hospital my wife left without a diagnose of her problem. The doctor said, the diagnose was that they didn't find anything, and he told her she did not have cancer. It was not until she got the pet scan that they found out they were wrong.
I know they use sugar and some radioactive stuff, but this is only a one time thing.

I know a person with cancer should not take sugar, but some say that a little bit of honey is OK. I don't no about that, I personlly believe honey is just like sugar, and what about the sugar in the fruits?

I don't know if I am right or not but I think a pet scan is very important in order to locate the cancer and know its extent.

It is a very good tool for that. Especially if the cancer has metastasized.

Cliff - ginger and recipe

I have been using ellagic acid and powdered ginger. Apparently they

I switched from powdered ginger to cutting up fresh ginger and adding it to my fo/cc. Someone on this list mentioned a few weeks ago that fresh ginger may be more powerful.



I understand that one complete nutrition package is brown rice and beans
cooked without sugar. Just boil them and season. I did it tonight and
I really liked it. A little chicken gravy on the rice fixed it up.

How did you do this? Did you cook them together or separately and then mix them? What kind of beans did you use? I am interested in trying this.

Re: Morning Cereal a Killer

glogan
 

Larry I don't eat the sugar coated Kellogg's dry food, when you go shopping for breakfast cereals they now have about a 1/2 mile of dry garbage that our kids eat all the time, I eat the ones that come in smaller packages and have all the good stuff in it and generally cost a fortune, I always add, raw chopped up almonds, a handful of raw sunflower seeds, a large tablespoon full of raw pumpkin seeds, some sesame seeds, a handful of wild blueberries, and I generally use rice milk with nothing added to sweeten it up. I do manage to have bacon and eggs or steak and eggs for a change, coffee apparently is a perfect enema, but I do like a cup once in a while, I prefer freshly juiced fruit or vegetables to start my day..

Subject: [FlaxSeedOil2] Morning Cereal a Killer


Gerry and all--

"Your morning cereal" is very unhealthy. Switch to eggs,
bacon or better yet a FO/CC smoothie!

From: Dr Douglas: "Cereal Killers

Is your breakfast worse than no breakfast?

I came across a study that I can say without a doubt is
amateurish and useless. Here's what the researchers
concluded:

"Eating breakfast might have beneficial effects on appetite,
insulin resistance and energy metabolism... [sugar
abnormality] rates were 35 percent to 50 percent lower among
people who ate breakfast every day compared to those who
frequently skipped it."

Come again? Talking about breakfast, without identifying
what they mean by breakfast, is about as sensible as talking
about love or religion or sex without some qualification.

A nutritious breakfast IS good - but the breakfast chosen by
most Americans is worse than no breakfast at all. The big
food companies have convinced most people that food barely
adequate for barn animals and lots of sugar and starch are
the way to start your day. And the junk medicine study
mentioned above perpetuates the food industry's propaganda
by saying that "people who ate whole-grain cereal each day
had a 15 percent lower risk of insulin resistance syndrome."

If you start your day the Kellogg way, you'll get what you
deserve - obesity and diabetes. Cereal, muffins, and other
standard breakfast offerings contain massive amounts of
sugar - or pure carbohydrates that your body converts to
sugar. Bombarding your system with these foods every morning
will make your pancreas work overtime to produce insulin -
and wearing out your pancreas will lead to diabetes.

Calling it "insulin-resistant diabetes" or "adult onset
diabetes" or "insulin resistance syndrome" distracts us from
the simple truth:
that the most common addiction in the
world - and far more harmful than cocaine or heroin - is
SUGAR ADDICTION. In the good old days prior to WW II,
diabetes was called exactly what it was: "sugar diabetes."

What you eat for breakfast shouldn't be any different than
what you eat for the rest of the day. A high animal fat
breakfast gets you off to a stable start, free of violent
fluctuations in blood sugar. So...

(1) Eat eggs, which can be prepared in a hundred different
ways from raw, to poached, to juevos rancheros.
(2) Pork (especially bacon), medium rare beef, and poached
fish are all excellent sources of fat and protein that
will keep you satisfied much longer than a donut.
(3) Dairy products (including cheese) are good too - just
make sure they're all unhomogenized.
(4) If you need something sweet to go along with your
protein-
packed breakfast, have a piece of fresh whole fruit -
not
juice or canned fruit.
(5) Wash it all down with a cup of black coffee and you'll
be
set to face the day." 7/22/04

The only thing missing here is the quality of the protein,
naturally raised, range free, etc.

Healthy regards,

Larry

Yes, Wilhelm, I believe it is - absolutley. To respect the principles of others does not mean to stifle them.

I whole heartedly disagree that spiritual matters have the same significance to one's health as do daycare and coin collecting. Again, it is your list. You have chosen to ignore, no, bar what you feel is not relevant. I will try to not say anything contrary to your beliefs.

Maybe the answer is to let people speak their minds, share anything

Most members will disagree. It also clutters up this board which many members have objected to openly and to me privately. Some people have left for that reason. One more point is that a lot of OT posts unnecessarily fill up our Yahoo storage allotment and it makes it harder to search the archives for relevant information.

If people disagree - FINE. That doesn't mean they shouldn't be able

Re: skinning almonds

 

A possibly more gentle (on the nutritious content) and just as effective
method is bringing water to the boil, throwing in the almonds for a
"moment" (I think 10 seconds will do), and then immediately running them
under cold water and voil¨¤, they peel easily...
(just saw Chloie's previous similar recommendation and am "enlarging" it
