Cell Phone Radiation And Cancer

The "Interphone Study" is the name of a multi-country analysis on cell phones and associated brain cancer risk (May 17, 2010). The combined examination and results of the 13 countries participating in the Interphone Study are published in the "International Journal of Epidemiology". Find out why you are more likely to get brain cancer after using a cell phone.

The study summarizes the data on mobile phone radiation and associated cancer risk. It reviews brain tumors, including acoustic neuroma (a tumor formed of nerve tissue) and tumors of the parotid gland. The data linked "heavy" cell phone use to a 40% increased risk of Glioma. The tumor would usually start on the side of the head that people hold their phone. If the person was right-handed, it would start behind the right ear. If the person was left-handed, it would start behind the left ear.

However, the Interphone definition of "heavy" cell phone use is only ½ hour of use per day. The average usage for people today is well over ½ hour. Furthermore, the mobile phone does not have to be "in use" for this length of time. The fact that it is turned on, and in your bio-field, means that it is altering your body frequency and immune system.

People have become accustomed to surfing the net, using social media, and even watching television on their smart phone. More and more apps are being developed for smart phone users. Many are cancelling land line use and switching to cell phone only. This means that as the usage of cell phones increases, so does the risk of brain cancer.

Another cause for alarm is the amount of radiation we are subjected to from laptop and desktop computer monitors, hand-held e-readers, playbooks and i-pads. Radiation Safety standards are higher in most European countries. For example, the Swedish safety standard for computers is a maximum of 0.25 milligauss at 50 cm (about 20 inches) from your display screen. Many US and Canadian screens emit 5-100 milligauss at that distance. There is some disagreement as to what a "safe" reading is. Sweden has suggested a background reading of 2 milligauss. Other countries suggest 1 milligauss or less. The average time spent on computers has increased dramatically, just like the usage of cell phones. Children are more susceptible because their brains and immune systems are still developing. As the usage of computers and hand-held devices increases, so does the risk of brain cancer.

In 1989 the US Department of Energy reported that "it has now become generally accepted that there are, indeed, biological effects due to field exposure" from EMFs. It is not just the short-term effects that are evident. Long-term studies are now surfacing showing a higher risk of various cancers due to EMF exposure.

Short-term exposure can produce headaches, dizziness, lack of concentration, fatigue, heart palpitations, compromise immune function, affect sleep, decrease the effectiveness of therapeutic drug treatment, cause skin rashes and decrease mental and physical well-being.

Long-term exposure can produce mutations, cancer and degenerative brain diseases.

We are all living in a world that is contaminated with Electropollution. Isn't it about time that we find radiation protection for ourselves and our children?

Tumeric - Spice Up Your Life and Prevent Cancer

In India, the rates of heart disease, Alzheimers disease and cancer are much lower than the United States. It is thought that diet accounts for the differences. One particular yellow spice used in India is gaining a lot of attention from medical researchers.

Turmeric (curcumin) is the Asian spice that turns curry yellow. It is also added to yellow mustard to make it, well yellow. The turmeric plant is a relative of ginger and its medicinal qualities have been known for years. The German Commission E, an authoritative guide to herbal medicines, lists turmeric as effective for stomach (dyspeptic) conditions. Its actions which include increased bile flow and anti-inflammatory actions are well documented in experiments.

Turmeric prevents cystic fibrosis and Alzheimers disease in mice but some of the most impressive data involves cancer. Research at the University of Alabama demonstrated decreased production of the MDM2 cancer protein which then caused prostate cancer cells to die. More studies have demonstrated an impressive array of inhibitory effects on cancer cells at all three phases of carcinogenesis; induction, growth and metastasis (eCAM 2007;4:181). Not only can it prevent cancer formation but it also has activity to decrease cancer cell growth and prevent spread of cancer cells. The data are so impressive there are 7 clinical trials in humans studying the effect of turmeric on cystic fibrosis, chronic psoriasis, colon cancer and pancreatic cancer according to the National Institutes of Health.

So add a little exotic turmeric spice to your life and help prevent disease. Good health never tasted so good.

The Benefits of Raw Food Diet For Cancer Patients

There has been a lot of talk about how raw foods help beat various diseases such as cancer. Such treatments make the immune system stronger, a lot of raw foods contain nutrients that destroy cancer etc. But before we get into all of that, it is important to understand what a "raw diet" exactly is.
The term "raw food" means the food is eaten without cooking and a "raw food" diet for cancer is a vegetarian type diet. The vegetables and fruits that are consumed are known to destroy cancer directly or indirectly. The foods that are in the cancer "raw food" diet are not random uncooked foods, they are carefully selected to fight against cancer specifically.
A lot of foods contain very important enzymes and cooking the food can destroy 100% of the enzymes. Cooked food does not contain as much nutrients as raw foods. Of course some vegetables are better to be eaten cooked like green beans and peas but generally it is better to consume raw foods not broiled, boiled or cooked.
Juicing vegetables and fruits makes the nutrients of the foods more digestible for the body, so more essential nutrients are extracted from the fruits or vegetables with much less of the obstructing fibers. You can also consume a lot more fruits and vegetables in a much shorter period with juicing.
As I mentioned before not all fruits and vegetables have the ability to treat cancer. If your goal is to cure cancer then your diet has to consist of massive amounts of the best cancer-killing nutrients. Just eating random fruits and vegetables is far less effective than eating carefully selected foods.
If you want a cancer-killing vegetable juice then your juice has to contain these ingredients: carrots (carrots may be the best cancer-fighting vegetable of all), broccoli. cabbage, red beets, green asparagus, cauliflower, beet tops etc. By the way pepper also has some cancer fighting substances. Consuming refined flour products, milk, milk products and meat should be stopped.
It is essential to get proper nutrients which the body needs. The diet of most people is poor to say the least and their body does not get all the nutrients it needs to function properly. Sure, the body can get by for many years but at some point the side-effects start to occur. So if you provide your body with the nutrients it needs, you can be sure that you are far less likely to get cancer and if you do have cancer, you are very likely to beat it!
