A Letter to a Friend, Re: Breast Cancer
Hey R.,
Sorry it took so long to get back to you. Things are going a bit crazy right
now...good crazy, tho. Its like everything is happening at once.
Here is the site that I send women to who are dealing with breast cancer. Again,
it is not there specifically for breast cancer but is a great list of the estrogen-rich and estrogen-blocking foods. (http://www.holistic-online.com/remedies/hrt/hrt_food_and_estrogen.htm ). The estrogen connection is HUGE and avoiding the foods rich in estrogen is important, not only for breast cancer,
but also endometriosis, PMS, perimenopausal symptoms, and more.
The key to ANY cancer is taking dead aim at immune system health. We will be
talking extensively about the role of viruses in cancer. If you put "virus, breast cancer" in your search, you will be amazed
at what they know that they have not told us yet. Hey, they are working on a breast cancer VACCINE. Wow! Vaccine against what?
Uh huh....a virus.
Some researchers have said for years that ALL cancer is viral and I believe that
down to my socks. There ARE powerful carcinogens but they are secondary and contribute to cancer by causing chronic tissue
inflammation/damage, damaging the immune system, and/or damaging the actual DNA where some viruses are "hiding". But
viruses were not created specifically to do harm. They were created to help us (and all plants and animals) to adapt
to facilitate variation in nature. We adapt to changes in our environment and diet because of viruses. How cool is that? BUT,
because of what we have done to our bodies, environment, and the animals that HOLD many of the viruses that afflict us, they
are adapting in such a way to become pathogenic. They were made with one mission...survive. And survive they will, even to
the detriment of the host. Their final act is to wall themselves off in a protective cocoon. You know what that cocoon is
called? A TUMOR. How's that for a different perspective. And I am totally convinced that it is the correct one. (I will add
an Email that I sent to a colleague of mine at the end of this that addresses this very issue).
The immune system was then designed by God to oversee this process. It is simply
a matter of checks and balances. The virus was given the task of helping the host adapt (and cause variation in individuals),
but doing what it took to survive...no matter what. BUT, the immune system was designed to oversee the process and to keep
the virus from getting out of control. (There is a direct spiritual parallel here that we will talk about in group). Immune-mediated
diseases (lupus, etc) are the example of the first wave of uprising on the part of the virus. Cancer is the second and final
stage. Cancer develops because the immune system fails, plain and simple.
The degenerative process that we have been discussing is a progressive one. The
immune-mediated diseases occur while we still have a semi-competent system left...usually. But I'm sure you have heard of
people who went fast from an immune-related disorder. Yes, atherosclerosis is one of those and a person every 3 secs dies
of a stroke or heart attack in this country.
But cancer happens when there has been a serious breech in the integrity of the
immune system. So, the recovery from cancer involves a concerted effort on our part to restore the immune status back to normal.
Unfortunately, many of the cancer therapies used are just the opposite...seriously damaging to the immune system. But that
approach is nothing new. Again, we have been taking fever-reducers for viral induced fevers for years. How "stupid" can we
be when we all know that the fever is there to stop the virus??? Amazing.
So how do we help the immune system? First, stop doing the bad stuff we are doing.
This is HUGE. Now you know where to start...the diet. The big 4 (gluten, casein, soy, corn) are doing the harm to the gut
as well as showering the body with lectins that are causing chronic irritation and driving the immune system.The malabsorption
of nutrients that are vital to the health of the tissues of the body as well as the immune system is CATACLYSMIC
to our health. Then add to that the estrogens in the diet and the hydrogenated oils, artificial sweeteners, preservatives,
colors, pollutants, insecticide residues and more and we can easily see how we are reaping what we have sown. And the viruses
HATE this kind of stuff. Remember, they are a survivor...the ultimate survivor...and they will do all that they can
to adapt and live, including the formation of protective cocoons called tumors.
The next thing we do is eat the appropriate foods and take the appropriate
supplements. What are the right foods? We know. It IS common sense...meats, fruits, vegetables, nuts, and berries with some
rice (an estrogen blocker) and some potatoes (well cooked and in moderation). Everything in moderation is the tenet, right?
All you need is SIX almonds a day to get all that you need from an almond. If you are an epileptic, pain sufferer, insomniac,
or one suffering from another glutamate-related disorder like ADHD, MS, ALS, Parkinson's, etc then eating more than 6 almonds
could be a problem. Peanuts are the best example of how BADLY we violate this tenet. Who eats 6 peanuts, right? They
are soy's closest cousin and LOADED with glutamate. I wonder why peanut allergies are such a problem now? Hmmm... :)
Read about vitamin D supplements....a very important nutrient when it comes to
cancer fighting. Get more sunlight, VITAL in the formation of vitamin D and serotonin , also vital in the immune response. Taking a good multi, plenty of
C, lots of B complex, and omega three fatty acids are all great ideas. Read about R-lipoic acid and its benefits....a phenomenal
antioxidant.
Also, get regular exercise and, above all, SLEEP....critical to healing. I recommend
getting off caffeine as soon as possible as you will never sleep as well as you could as long as you are bombarding yourself
with caffeine. Caffeine consumed from 8 am to 3 PM delays bedtime and that consumed after 5 wakes us up earlier in the AM
than normal. So, caffeine is robbing us of VITAL sleep time at both ends, lopping off an hour or more at night and in the
early AM. Insomnia and sleep disorders are PANDEMIC in this country and our health is failing miserably from it.
I guess I'll stop here. I went a little farther than just giving you
that link, eh? LOL But, I thought I would give you something that you could forward to your friend to read to get
her interested in this crucial concept. I hope it helps.
May God Bless you and yours with health, wisdom, and prosperity this year.
I look forward to seeing you at church and next week in the group.

I hope you enjoyed your time here and got something important from your stay. It is
my goal to help all of mankind navigate through the jungle of medical information now available on the Internet and find the
truth about the origins of what we call "disease" as well as discover the natural solutions for these conditions.
We do have our health's destiny in our own hands more than we've ever
imagined, certainly more than most have ever been told. Think naturally and the answer will come.

You can now go to the new site!
The New DogtorJ.com is done! Yes, the time has finally come for this homemade Website to go the way of the
buffalo. I know that you all join me in looking forward to using a site that is better organized and more accessible....prettier,
too! I've even corrected most of those annoying typos (I hope).
Feel free to check it out now at www.dogtorj.com. I am still working hard to populate all of the pages so don't worry if a link does not work. They should
all be active in the near future. In the meantime,
this current site will remain on-line until I get all of the bugs worked out.
Let me know what you think! It's not too late to make some changes.

I would still like to hear
from you personally, though.
I used to have a nice little form in this space that would
allow readers to send me a quick comment or testimonial. Unfortunately, as the Interent goes, I started getting
50-100 junk emails through this form and had to remove it.
So, until the new Website is up and running (soon!), I will have
to ask people to formulate an Email of their own and send it. I do want to hear from you so I would really appreciate
it if you could take the time to do this.
Simply title your Email "Visitor Comment" and include your name, occupation, comment/testimonial and
return Email address (if you want to be contacted) and send it to:
dogtorj @ dogtorj.com (Just remove the spaces on each side of the @ sign)
Please do not use this form to ask medical questions. See
the Contact section for instructions for sending DogtorJ an Email inquiry concerning a medical
condition.
***********************************************
Great News!
DogtorJ.com will
be getting a major facelift in the very near future. Yes, the time has finally come for this homemade Website
to be taken over by someone who actually knows what they are doing. I know that you all join me in looking forward to having
the site better organized and more accessible. It'll be prettier, too!
This is taking place for a number of reasons, the most of important
of which will be revealed in the upcoming months. Yes, the book is finally in the works but there will be a
major awareness project to go along with it.
So, please stay tuned. Anyone who would like to get on my mailing list can do so by simply using the visitor's comment area (like the one above)
found at the bottom of each page.
Onward and upward!
