Diagnosis of
doctors (oncologist, radiologist, surgeon), and had essentially rejected me
"sorry about your luck" and sent me home. The surgeon had casually
suggested "try" a label chemo medicine out hoping to make the tumor
small enough to try surgery on. My husband doctor and I knew better and were
the oncologist.
So what is
the problem on blueberries berries- and not only. Food is not a cure against
cancer. Health is the remedy against cancer and berries (and other foods)
contains various powerful nutrients restore the health and maintenance of cell molecules
of our bodies desperately need to lead healthy living our lives.
By choosing
berries, I choose own organic varieties because detoxification is an
"anti-cancer function of" major bays. I do not want to neutralize
their impact by eating berries exposed to carcinogens in pesticides and
herbicides?
Raspberries
and strawberries are rich in anti-cancer phytochemicals. Ellagic acid is
"most likely to interfere with the development of cancer" and
strawberries may be the best source for the nutrient is in the paste rather
than seeds. Extracts from these berries "are also able to counter the
growth of tumor cells." (P 121 "Food against cancer" by Beliveau
and Gingras, both doctorate).
Although
ellagic acid in berries has several key mechanisms to increase the cellular
defense against carcinogens, Drs. Beliveau and Gingras say in Canada (and other
demanding researchers agree), "We discovered that this molecule is a
highly potent inhibitor of two proteins essential for the spread of the tumor
vasculature, the process of angiogenesis ... or the formation of new networks
of blood vessels in tumors. (Ibid.)
Personally, I
like the organic freeze-dried black raspberry powder in my homemade yogurt,
smoothies, and grains. I also add nuts (walnuts) mainly yogurt and cereals as
they are packed with ellagic acid (but not as much that in the bays) and omega
3 essential fatty acids. Studies have shown "significant impact of black
raspberry extract" as having an inhibitory effect on cancers of the
esophagus, mouth and colon "(Dr. Servan-Schreiber, MD, Ph.D., 119
Anticancer: A New Way of Life).
Let Blueberry
my doctor friend recalled, "read about in a medical journal."
(Blueberries and cranberries to a lesser extent) are particularly rich in
powerful anti-cancer molecules. These molecules are polyphenols (causing the
brilliant colors of the fruit). Some of them are powerful antioxidants, but
"they may also have a different kind of impact on the development of
cancer." (Ibid.p122) It ensures mechanisms to prevent angiogenesis (referenced
above) and they stimulate cancer cell suicide or apoptosis.
I think the
windows are colorful, delicious and nutritious whether fresh or frozen. Organic
frozen varieties are generally available in the market and can be thrown in a
rich smoothie anti-cancer foods.
Here's a
quick smoothie recipe I like to eat some nuts with crackers (to get the
digestive juices flowing): 1 small avocado, a handful of fresh organic spinach,
about 1/3 cup frozen organic berries, coconut ice or water aloe vera to fill
the spaces. This is a cream, tasty "food to go" that meets your taste
buds and your body cells It holds your appetite until the next meal [Note: The
avocado green and red fruits give you a little gray to your smoothie but I
think it tastes delicious.
