I wonder if chromium piconolate would help. Reportedly it helps

keep blood sugar more even. Has anyone heard this, or can point me to

something that discusses chromium and cancer?

Recent studies show that cinnamon helps to keep blood sugars level, as

well. Also, My naturopath suggests eating a handful of nuts when

having fruit to help with blood sugar levels. I have been putting

walnuts in my grapenuts along with the banana.

Would not take any synthetic products until completely clean bill of health

issued. Your're right about " glucose greed " of cancer cells.

However, the entie body's overall terrain has to be severely compromised for

cancer to develop. Too many toxins throughout tissue, blood and organs.

Blood sugar stability is critical because its true that breast cancer cells

have something like 10-15 times more glucose receptor sites. But how does

one stablize blood sugar without excessive protein intake?

Have some ideas but would like to hear yours.

I am reading " You - On a Diet " , the current nutrition book from Drs. Roizen and

Oz.

I am convinced that this is the ultimate nutrition book. They explain the

digestive processes, and

how they relate to food absorption. Their prose style is breezy and often

amusing (rather like the

" Dummies " series.

Granted, they don't have a B/C focus, but their emphasis on overall health

matter to all of our

bodies.

Has any one else read this? What do you think?

Take care,
