I agree completely w/everything you wrote above.

I believe there are a few exceptions, such as iron.

I strongly agree.

Cancer eats sugar.. so lay off the sugars, sweets, and carbos.

I would question these two remarks, Rosemary. I believe the Dr is wrong.

Great post.

I also recommend stopping

all soft drinks, white flour (carbos and other problems), and

aspartame.

A clean colon is also important. During Radiation Therapy you may

need to put the good bacteria back in your colon. Waste removal very

important for good health. If the waste does not leave it will be

reabsorbed.

Let's talk about removing waste in the body. The body is around

70 percent water. Yet many people drink little or no water each day.

This causes dehydration. When your body is dehydrated you cannot

remove all the liquid waste in the body.

(your body weight) / 2 = (min water you should drink)

How many meals do you eat each day? Lets say you eat 2 meals and 1

snack each day. To make it simple we will say that a meal is when you

eat to provide energy for the body. Since most snacks have many

carbohydrates we will call snacks meals to make it easy for everyone.

Lets say you eat 3 meals per day and have 1 bowel movement per day.

Some people have less and some have more but this is a good place to

start. Think about each meal having trash after it is used and placed

in its own trash bag. The trash is taken out 1 time per day and you

have created 3 trash bags of trash. Where is the waste going?

365 days times 3 meals = 1095 waste cycles per year

365 days times 1 removal = 365 waste removals per year

1095 waste cycles per year – 365 waste removals per year = 730

waste removals left per year in the colon.
