We’ve all heard the hype about Omega 3 fatty acids- and no surprises here; I’m going to contribute to it! Although the recent trends in popular culture give “fat” a bad reputation, Omega 3’s are an essential additional to our diet. They’re called “essential fats” because our bodies don’t produce them on their own.
Read up on these cancer fighting and heart nurturing fats and try the great new recipe at the end of this post!

While fighting cancer, I was strategic to use particular spices in the food I ate. I knew the research on these spices. I knew which spice induced apoptosis (cancer cell suicide) and which slowed growth of tumors. Over the past couple years I have forgotten the function of these spices and have grown accustomed to adding them into my diet without remembering their awesome healing powers. Here is a brief review for myself and hopefully a quick lesson for you!
It can’t hurt to add more garlic and onions into your recipe rotation. Garlic has been known for its healing properties for thousands of years. It has antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, and anti-inflammatory properties. Onions are loaded with the bioflavonoid, quercetin, (remember this induces cancer cell suicide and prevents healthy cells from mutating into cancer cells.) Both should have a more prominent role in our cancer fighting cuisine!
This post also contains a DELICIOUS guacamole recipe, a CHALLENGING cancer fighting drink, and an AMAZING oil/garlic salve that can improve many ailments!

It is difficult to find official research studies in the world of holistic/alternative cancer treatment (mostly due to the lack of money in it!). This video gives some quick insight into what is going on in the world of angiogenesis research, a burgeoning attack plan for alternative and allopathic cancer patients.

I preach the green stuff, but why do I believe in it like I do? Why do I chug down 64oz of it everyday?
Dark Leafy Greens like spinach, kale, romaine, baby lettuces, and chard should all be in our dietary forefront. We may wish they tasted better, but maybe by knowing WHY they are so good for us, we will want to make a better effort to eat them!
When I first heard about rebounding for cancer, I thought it was a complete joke. How could jumping on a mini-trampoline help me with my cancer diagnosis? Is it even scientific that rebounders help with cancer at all? The science behind rebounding exercise is both interesting and convincing.
When I first wrote this post back in February of 2011, I was barely past my cancer diagnosis. It is amazing to be here 15 years later as a family of eight and have so much perspective! I am so grateful for my rebounder and we have tons of fun on it daily. I still highly recommend the Cellerciser because I have now seen how it has held up and of course, being cancer free, I wonder its role in supporting my immune system over the years.
