Cancer Center for Healing 4/26/17

I am surrounded by cancer patients. We sit around in comfortable rocker recliners. People are sharing ideas about how to get the veggies in, a fruit name juajabana from South America that she says kills cancer. Adding baking soda and lemon to water to boost immunity. I've been adding lemon to water to make it more alkaline.

A lady just said she's been coming here since July. Another has been here 2 months. I am still anxious. How am I going to fit this all in. I can't really. I live my life by pushing myself and that is dangerous now. If I don't leave myself time for meal planning, shopping, making, I won't be eating the foods that can conquer this. I'll be doing like I always have - grabbing what to others might seem healthy most of the time but that may not (probably not). The anti-cancer diet is ketagenic.

According to the National Institute of Health, www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4215472/,

Numerous dietary components and supplements have been evaluated as possible cancer prevention agents; however, until recently few studies have investigated diet as a possible adjuvant to cancer treatment. One of the most prominent and universal metabolic alterations seen in cancer cells is an increase in the rate of glycolytic metabolism even in the presence of oxygen . Although increased glucose uptake by tumor cells was thought to support increased cancer cell proliferation and energy demands, recent studies suggest that increased tumor cell glycolytic metabolism may represent an adaptive response to escape metabolic oxidative stress caused by altered mitochondrial oxygen metabolism . These data support the hypothesis that cancer cells are reliant on increased glucose consumption to maintain redox homeostasis due to increased one electron reductions of O2 to form O2•−and H2O2 in mitochondria. This divergence from normal cell metabolism has sparked a growing interest in targeting mitochondrial oxygen metabolism as a means of selectively sensitizing cancer cells to therapy . In this regard, dietary modifications, such as high-fat, low-carbohydrate ketogenic diets that enhance mitochondrial oxidative metabolism while limiting glucose consumption could represent a safe, inexpensive, easily implementable, and effective approach to selectively enhance metabolic stress in cancer cells versus normal cells.

So...mid to large amounts of clean proteins and healthy, uncooked fats. Very low amounts of carbs and sugars. No animal protein after 2:00 pm. 

For the Hoxsey protocol, no tomatoes, vinegar, white sugar, alcohol, carbonated beverages. 

In 2014, when I lost 65 lbs, I used the mantra, "Fruits, Vegetables, and Quality Proteins."  
I need to just modify that to "bitter veggies and very limited sweet veggies and fruit, quality proteins and healthy fats." and I'd be on track.
