Cancer Loves Sugar

PET_CT_Scan
If you are not 100% convinced that consuming sweet, sugary (simple carbohydrate) foods is a bad idea for anyone with cancer (FYI-we ALL have cancer in our body) take one look at this. As far as I’m concerned there is absolutely no better image to really drive this point home and make it stick in your mind.

What you are looking at is a PET/CT scan, the best radiology imaging tool available for helping us find cancer hiding in the body. I order these almost every day in my practice.

The reason I show this to you is that PET/CT’s use sugar (“18F-fluorodeoxyglucose” or “18F-FDG”, a radiolabelled glucose molecule) to highlight the location of cancer in the body.

If there was anything better than sugar to help us identify hidden cancer in the body we would be using it.

How PET/CTs Work:
The PET/CT study involves having the patient fast before their scan and then get an injection of this radioactive sugar. They are then asked to sit in the waiting room for about an hour, giving time for the sugar to circulate around the body and be gobbled up by hungry cancer cells. Sugar is the #1 food cancer cells prefer to eat, so they load up on this 18-FDG like a kid in a candy store. Then the patient is brought back to the PET/CT scanner and are scanned from head to toe. Anywhere the sugar accumulates (i.e. cancerous tumors) shows up like a lightbulb on the scan. This is what you are looking at in the rotating image above.

If You Didn’t Know How Bad Sugar Was Before You Aren’t Alone:
Unfortunately, most conventionally trained medical doctors receive very little if any nutritional education in medical school or in resident training. As a result, it is hardly a surprise that the only snacks and drinks available to patients in most oncology offices are chips, crackers, surgery drinks and juices. To make matters worse, the ‘nutritional’ supplement drink recommended most often for cancer patients is loaded with sugar.

Reduce The Gap

Again this week I was thinking about how to more effectively commnicate the benefits of spectacular nutrition so more of my readers can enjoy better energy levels, mental clarity and great health for longer. I know from the feedback I receive how much better many people do on my products.
I looked at the fact that I have for myself an ideal scene at which I work diligently to obtain. This is as follows:
Physical: To have enough energy, flexibility, strength and agility to be physically capable of doing what I need and want to do all throughout the day
Mental: To wake alert and refreshed and to have the mental focus and clarity to communicate effectively, set goals, solve problems, learn and teach
The distance between where I am – my existing scene – and the above stated ideal scene is my “gap”. And I work to “reduce the gap”.
Then I got to thinking about where others are at. How I could help you “reduce the gap” betweem where you are and where you want to be?
Thinking this over I realised that there is a scale of existing scenes. It has inumerable points on it but there are broad groupings into one of which each of us falls:
1. Optimum health – flourishing, powerfully good health
2. Below optimum health – surviving OK, not sick but not flourishing
3. Unwell – sick (colds, flu, infections etc.)
4. Disease management – chronic ill health (diabetes, high blood pressure, autoimmune diseases etc.)
5. Palliative care – dying
6. Dead
If you are reading this you are at one of the top 5 levels and because as we go through life most of us progress from Optimum health down through these levels they could also be called stages.
The ideal is obviously to spend as big a percentage as possible of our life in stage 1 then as much time as possible in stage 2 after which as little a percentage of our life as possible in stages 3 and below before we say goodbye.
After much reading, from observing the state of this civilisation and from talking to thousands of people, my conclusion is that the only way to accomplish the ideal is to continually and very actively, even aggressively work at either maintaining oneself at Optimum or closing the gap between where you are and Optimum. I observe that most people do not do this.
Unless one continually and very actively works at it, the multitude of hidden or unobtrusive survival suppressors wreak their progressively destructive havoc on the mind and body which takes one down the levels.
As you will read in the articles below, from the simplest, sweetest delight, suger, to the toxins in vaccines and in the poisons sprayed on our foods, survival suppressors are insidious, pervasive and almost ubiquitous.
So unless you consciously, deliberately and with malice aforethought do all you can to increase your nourishment and minimise your toxic intake and reduce the burden of your body’s existing toxic load, you will spend more time than you want to being sick and unhappy. Of course as I detail in my book, there are more than a dozen factors involved in optimum health, the above two, nutrition and toxins, are but two of them.
How Stem Cells Help Reduce The Gap
Now, to the punchline. I was sharing some data on Stem Cells with someone recently. How they are vital in replacing damaged cells and maintaining health and our body makes less of them as we age. She asked if I had a specific formula that would increase the release of stem cells from the bones. From past reading I had identified that my products had seven ingredients that boosted the release of stell cells but I wondered if there were more I could combine into a specific Stem Cell boosting version of NutriBlast. So I went reading.
——————————————————————————-
Here is some data I found here: https://www.lifeextension.com/Magazine/2017/3/Nutrients-Boost-Stem-Cell-Function/Page-01
In one study, a supplement containing green tea, astragalus, goji berry extracts, ellagic acid, and vitamin D fermented with a probiotic Lactobacillus species, was given to human volunteers twice daily for 2 weeks. Within a day, and continuing for the rest of the study, researchers detected significant increases in circulating bone marrow stem cells. They believe this was caused by stimulation of the body’s natural repair mechanisms (stem cells) by the nutraceutical combination.
And from: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2010/04/100407192446.htm
A nutritional supplement could stimulate the production of stem cells integral for repairing the body. Research published in BioMed Central’s open access Journal of Translational Medicine suggests that a commercially-available supplement can increase the blood circulation of hematopoietic stem cells, which can give rise to all blood cells, and endothelial progenitor cells, which repair damage to blood vessels.
“To our knowledge, this is the first study demonstrating profound mobilization effect with possible clinical significance by a food supplement-based approach,” say the authors.
——————————————————————————-
So in an attempt to create a formula that was as effective as possible in increasing circulating stem cells what I did was to create a new NutriBlast that has 36 ingredients in it. “Why 36?” I can hear someone ask, “Other stem cell boosting formulations on the market have only 3-5 ingredients in them.”
Well, those who have been on my mailing list for a while or have read much of my site or my book recall that nature is very synergistic. Many things have their effectiveness remarkably increased by taking them together. For instance chicken and broccoli both have anti-cancer properties but when eaten toether you get 13 times the anti-cancer benefit of eating each individually.
Similarly I have read that the cordyceps muchroom and blue green algae work together to boost the release of stem cells. So I included the ingredients in the formula you see on the ingredients tab.

If you would like to “reduce the gap” between where you are and optimal health and would like to try the new NutriBlast Stem Cell blend, message me or pick up the phone (02 9552 3311) now I am back in town.
I have yet to make a batch so it would be useful to know what size you would prefer. The average cost of ingredients is much higher for this formula so the cost per tub will be as follows:
Size Bulk Retail
200 gram tub $56 $90
400 gram tub $100 $160

The Overlooked Vitamin That Improves Autoimmune Disease and Autonomic Dysfunction

Vitamin B1
Thiamin may be the missing link to treating autoimmune disease and autonomic dysfunction. Although deficiencies in this vitamin have long been considered eradicated, case studies show supplementation with this nutrient improves fatigue in autoimmune patients in a matter of hours to days.

China’s Serious & Breaking Vaccine Scandal: Are Your Vaccines Made In China?

“…China’s Food and Drug Administration (CFDA) announced it has ordered all production stopped at the vaccine maker and launched an investigation.”
“Changchun Changsheng Biotechnology is China’s second largest maker of the rabies vaccine and a subsidiary of a large publicly-traded vaccine maker.”
“The company said in a stock exchange filing Sunday that it had already halted production of another vaccine — for diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis — which regulators found last year to be sub-standard and which had also become the focus of public attention.”

Health Benefits of Slippery Elm Bark

Slippery Elm Bark
Slippery elm bark has been used as an herbal medicinal remedy in North America for hundreds of years. It works with the body to draw out impurities and toxins, assisting with the healing of all body parts. Historically, Native Americans used the herb topically for skin issues and internally for a variety of ailments. In fact, it was used to treat wounds on soldiers during the American Revolution.
Slippery elm bark also contains antioxidants that help relieve inflammatory bowel conditions. This makes the bark an excellent herbal treatment for a variety of digestive conditions including Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD), Crohn’s Disease, ulcerative colitis, diarrhea, diverticulitis, and Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). It is also believed that slippery elm bark may cause extra mucus production in the gastrointestinal tract, in which case it may also help protect your intestinal tract from ulcers. It is for these reasons you’ll find it as an ingredient in Jon Barron’s all natural Colon Regenerator formula.
