Cancer’s Favorite Ingredient

The average American eats 70 grams of fructose per day — a
number triple the recommended daily limit.
A study published last summer in Cancer Research shows that
fructose is even more of a nutritional villain than previously
suspected. More than any other kind of sugar, it appears to
trigger cancer cells to divide and proliferate.
Researchers at the University of California–Los Angeles
extracted pancreatic tumor cells from patients and grew the
cells in petri dishes. They added glucose (another simple sugar
long known to fuel the growth of cancer cells) to one dish and
fructose to the other. The cancer cells used both glucose and
fructose as fuel, but the fructose also activated the cellular
pathway that drives cell division while triggering cellular
activities that helped cancer cells rapidly metabolize both
fructose and glucose.
The main source of fructose in the North American diet is
high-fructose corn syrup and other refined sweeteners, such as
sucrose, dextrose and maltose. U.S. consumption of high-fructose
corn syrup alone shot up 1,000 percent between 1970 and 1990.
>:(
Today, the average American eats 70 grams of fructose per day —
a number triple the recommended daily limit.
7 Tricks to Tame Your Sweet Tooth
The best way to limit fructose intake is to greatly reduce or
eliminate processed foods and sweetened beverages from your
diet. But you can further limit your total fructose intake by
choosing fruits — like berries and stone fruits — that have
lower fructose concentrations, and going easy on fruit juices
and dried fruits, which deliver a lot of fructose per serving.
Osteopathic physician and New York Times best-selling author
Joseph Mercola, MD, suggests no more than 20 grams of fructose
per day, with no more than 15 grams coming from fruit.
Next: Which fruit has the most fructose?
The Fructose in Fruit
Fruits are good sources of nutrients and fiber, but some contain
a significant payload of fructose, too. Here’s a low-to-high
listing of some commonly eaten fruits (grams of fructose in
bold):
Low
Peaches — 1 cup, 154 g — 2.36 g
Clementines — 2 fruits, 148 g — 2.42 g
Raspberries — 1 cup, 123 g — 2.89 g
Medium
Pineapples — 1 cup, 165 g — 3.50 g
Grapefruit — 1 cup, 230 g — 4.07 g
High
Bananas — 1 cup, 150 g — 7.28 g
Apples — 1 cup, 125 g — 7.37 g
Mangoes — 1 cup, 165 g — 7.72 g
Pears — 1 fruit, 148 g — 9.22 g

Brett Smith for redOrbit.com – Your Universe Online
Vegetables like celery and artichokes have long been thought to
convey numerous health benefits, and a new study from scientists
at University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign revealed that
these foods have two chemical components, apigenin and luteolin,
known as flavonoids that are capable of killing off cancer
cells.
“Apigenin alone induced cell death in two aggressive human
pancreatic cancer cell lines. But we received the best results
when we pre-treated cancer cells with apigenin for 24 hours,
then applied the chemotherapeutic drug gemcitabine for 36
hours,” said study author Elvira de Mejia, a U of I food
chemistry and toxicology professor.
The researchers found that using the two flavonoids as a
pretreatment was more effective than applying them together with
the chemotherapeutic drug simultaneously. In fact, applying both
the drug and the flavonoids at the same time resulted in a
highly undesirable effect.
“Even though the topic is still controversial, our study
indicated that taking antioxidant supplements on the same day as
chemotherapeutic drugs may negate the effect of those drugs,”
said Jodee Johnson, a U of I researcher who worked on the study
as a doctoral student in de Mejia’s lab.
“That happens because flavonoids can act as antioxidants,” she
added. “One of the ways that chemotherapeutic drugs kill cells
is based on their pro-oxidant activity, meaning that flavonoids
and chemotherapeutic drugs may compete with each other when
they’re introduced at the same time.”
In the study, which was published in the journal Molecular
Nutrition and Food Research, the Illinois researchers found that
apigenin blocked an enzyme called glycogen synthase
kinase-3β (GSK-3β), which led to a drop in the
production of anti-apoptotic genes in the pancreatic cancer
cells. These genes cause a cancer cell to self-destruct because
its DNA has been damaged.
In one cell line, the percentage of self-destructing cancer
cells went from 8.4 percent in cells that had not been dosed
with apigenin to almost 44 percent in cells that had been
administered a 50-micromolar dose of the flavonoid. Chemotherapy
drugs had not been used on either group of cells.
The researchers also found that apigenin modified gene
expression.
“Certain genes associated with pro-inflammatory cytokines were
highly upregulated,” de Mejia said.
While pancreatic cancer patients would probably not be able to
eat enough celery or artichokes to boost flavonoids in the blood
to an effective level, drugs or supplements could be used to
achieve the desired concentrations, according to de Mejia.
The Illinois food scientist added that everyone should consider
adding foods high in flavonoids to their regular diet.
“If you eat a lot of fruits and vegetables throughout your life,
you’ll have chronic exposure to these bioactive flavonoids,
which would certainly help to reduce the risk of cancer,” she
noted.

Researchers have been looking into the anti-cancer properties of
flavonoids for years. A study published in 2008 by UCLA
researchers found that smokers who ate foods rich in certain
flavonoids, including strawberries, brussel sprouts and apples,
may reduce their lung cancer risk.

One of Cancer's BEST FRIENDS: HIGH BLOOD SUGAR
By: AGelbert Date: November 2, 2013, 3:56 pm

One of Cancer's BEST FRIENDS: HIGH BLOOD SUGAR
[img width=640

My fasting serum glucose is at 94. What's yours? Avoid SWEET
MISERY; avoid refined sugar and eating large portions of white,
refined simple carbs because they do a number on your blood
sugar and do little to satisfy your appetite.
More and more, modern medicine is realizing that cholesterol,
fats and other lipids as well as salt are NOT the killers they
were once thought to be. It now appears that those begin to
deteriorate your health as a consequence of high blood sugar.
[img width=640
height=380]
HTML http://www.olgakaczmar.com/SugarFeedsCancerSmall.jpg[/img]
WHY? Because your body metabolizes all the above quite well
UNTIL you have problems with inflammation. Then the cleansing
activity loses efficiency.
What's the killer sugar connection?
1. When there is more sugar in your blood stream than your
cells need, the receptors "get used to FEAST" and make it harder
to bind to them to make energy. Really badly blocked receptors
is what diabetes is all about. When low blood sugar occurs
(FAMINE), your body, used to FEAST, cannot get all the energy it
needs from blocked receptors and you get lethargic in addition
to inefficent handling of cholesterol, fats and immune function.
2. The extra sugar in your system, because sugar molecules
have a jagged shape, cut capillary walls and start the
inflammation vicious cycle (mast cells on the vessel walls
release histones from sugar molecules bound to hemoglobin - red
blood cells - banging against them). People who are chronically
dehydrated because they hit the jar too much excacerbate the
sugar molecule damage to capillary vessel walls giving all the
above difficulties a boost.

[quote]Blood sugar actually coats red blood cells
(hemoglobin),[I] causing them to become stiff.[/I] These "sticky
cells" interfere with blood circulation, causing cholesterol to
build up on the inside of your blood vessels. It can take months
to years for the damage to your body to appear. The fragile
blood vessels in your eyes, kidneys and feet are most
susceptible, so problems are usually noticed first in those
areas.[/quote]

3. Cancer cells ARE NOT concerned with keeping things
homeostatic. They have one main mission in life: RAPID
GROWTH.
HTML http://www.freesmileys.org/emoticons/emoticon-monster-001.gif<br
/>[I]And to GROW FAST, you need LOTS OF ENERGY![/I] That is why
cancer LOVES SUGAR.
[img width=640
height=480]
HTML http://knowledgeofhealth.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/CancerSugar1.jpg[/img]
So give up the donut love and daily boozing as well as large
portions of blood sugar boosting simple carbohydrate foods like
pretzels and beer. That is truly an unhealthy combination
because (among several others pushed by our ignorant, hyper
consumerist, instant gratification society as cultural icons -
apple pie anyone? :P ) you are dehydrating yourself while
simultaneously jacking up your blood sugar. Too much refined
white rice, potatoes, etc. are bad for you. Boozing every day is
bad for you because it leads to a chronic dehydrated circulatory
system.
So why do we like all that stuff so much if it is "bad" for us?
??? Because we are energy seekers and our taste buds are
designed to zero in on anything that has high sugar (or high in
simple carbs that can be quickly converted to sugar). We were
designed to operate in an environment where we could go long
stretches ( a few days) without food as long as we could get
water.
Having FEAST conditions ALL THE TIME creates a feedback
mechanism from our body to radically reduce our ability to
process sugars because the body ASSUMES a "new normal" of no
longer having to be as efficient at sucking up all the available
energy around.
Our biochemistry, being homeostatic, tries its best to balance
this excess of energy [color=maroon]but ultimately fails from
too much inflammation. The immune system gets more and more
compromised and along comes one of those MUTATIONS the
evolutionist true believers love so much to 'EVOLVE' us into a
new and improved bunch of cancer tumors. ???
Yeah, I know people don't call that evolution because the
mutations that cause cancer are NEGATIVE mutations, not
"evolutionary advantages" (Unless you are a cancer! ;D LOL!).
But unfortunately for the evolutionist true believers, 98% of
all mutations in nature, as observed by modern scientific
inquiry over the last 50 years (at least) with detailed
analysis, are DNA destructive mutations, not new super powers
from natural selection. ;)
So, if you want to believe in evolution, have a ball. But don't
plan on "evolving" out of destroying your immune system with
high blood sugar any time soon. [img width=80

Curcumin and Cancer Prevention and Treatmrent
By: AGelbert Date: March 2, 2014, 4:40 pm
---------------------------------------------------------

[quote]By Dr. Mercola
Cancer is one of the leading causes of death. What if there was
a safe, natural herb that could work for nearly every type of
cancer?
According to Dr. William LaValley, who focuses most of his
clinical work on the treatment of cancer, curcumin—a derivative
of turmeric, and the pigment that gives the curry spice turmeric
its yellow-orange color—may fit the bill. It's a natural
compound that has been extensively researched, and has been
found to have numerous health applications.
Like me, Dr. LaValley was trained in general medicine, but he's
devoted a considerable amount of time to understanding the
biochemical pathways that can support health nutritionally.
In 1982, he participated in an exchange program to the People's
Republic of China, where he got first-hand experience with the
ancient practices of traditional Chinese medicine and
acupuncture.
"One of the important messages that I learned there was that
natural products, natural molecules, from plants and animals
that are already available in nature, have been used by the
Chinese for at least hundreds, probably thousands of years. That
deeply changed my perspective in the world of medicine," he
says.
"I came back to medical school, and thereafter, looked at how I
could integrate the perspective of conventional pharmaceutical
administration as well as natural extract, natural product
administration."
Curcumin Has Potent Anti-Cancer Activity
In 2005, he took a 75 percent sabbatical from clinical practice
to immerse himself in the science of molecular biology,
specifically the molecular biology of cancer. He also devoted
approximately 9,000-9,500 hours building a relational database
from the PubMed literature about the molecular biology of
cancer.
One important lesson he learned through that venture is that the
understanding of molecular biology can be applied across a range
of diseases and symptoms described in the scientific literature.
That knowledge can be applied by searching PubMed and other
related databases, looking at the relevant molecular pathways
involved.
"In learning the molecular biology of cancer pathways, and in
learning that what the evidence actually shows for the effect of
natural product extracts on various relevant molecular targets
in various cancers,
We see that there's actually quite a large amount of evidence
that supports using various molecules, natural products, and
pharmaceuticals that are already approved and that have been
around for a long time to affect anti-cancer activity along that
pathway at that target. That's called molecularly targeted
anti-cancer treatment, and it's widely practiced in oncology
today.
What's not widely practiced is the use of the natural products
for the molecularly targeted anti-cancer activity. I provide
that for my patients because the evidence base suggests and
supports the use of these treatment recommendations."
Curcumin—A 'Universal' Cancer Treatment?
Interestingly, curcumin appears to be universally useful for
just about every type of cancer, which is really odd since
cancer consists of a wide variety of different molecular
pathologies. You wouldn't necessarily suspect that there would
be one herb that would work for most of them. Dr. LaValley
explains how he came to this conclusion:
"I went back to the literature and looked at how I can support
the decision-making process and the recommendations that I'm
making for treatment from the scientific literature, including
literature that goes from the treatment of humans with oral
products like pharmaceuticals or natural products.
This is where I learned about this molecule called curcumin, all
the way down to its use in animals and then its use in test
tubes or petri dish... One of the amazing things about curcumin
is that this molecule has some profound anti-inflammatory
activity and has activity in many molecular targets.
There are molecules that are in the cells, and those molecules
interact with each other along certain pathways or tracks. The
traffic of that interaction, the signals that are transferred in
that trafficking of information in the molecules, presents many
different targets or molecular-specific complexes."
As explained by Dr. LaValley, whether the curcumin molecule
causes an increase in traffic or activity of a particular
molecular target, or a decrease/inhibition of activity, studies
repeatedly show that the end result is a potent anti-cancer
activity. Furthermore, curcumin does not adversely affect
healthy cells, suggesting it selectively targets cancer cells.
Research has also shown that it works synergistically with
certain chemotherapy drugs, enhancing the elimination of cancer
cells.
Curcumin Destroys Cancer in Multiple Ways
Curcumin has the most evidence-based literature1 supporting its
use against cancer of any nutrient, including vitamin D, which
also has a robust base. Interestingly, this also includes the
metabolite of curcumin and its derivatives, which are also
anti-cancerous.
Curcumin has the ability to modulate genetic activity and
expression—both by destroying cancer cells and by promoting
healthy cell function. It also promotes anti-angiogenesis,
meaning it helps prevent the development of additional blood
supply necessary for cancer cell growth. As for its effect on
molecular pathways, curcumin can affect more than 100 of them,
once it gets into the cell. More specifically, curcumin has been
found to:
Inhibit the proliferation of tumor cells Decrease inflammation
Inhibit the transformation of cells from normal to tumor
Inhibit the synthesis of a protein thought to be instrumental in
tumor formation
Help your body destroy mutated cancer cells so they cannot
spread throughout your body Help prevent the development of
additional blood supply necessary for cancer cell growth
(angiogenesis)
Why Whole Turmeric Is Ineffective
Unfortunately, while there's some curcumin in whole turmeric,
there's not enough in the regular spice to achieve clinically
relevant results. The turmeric root itself contains only about
three percent curcumin concentration. Another major limitation
of curcumin as a therapeutic agent is that it is poorly
absorbed. When taken in its raw form, you're only absorbing
about one percent of the available curcumin.
"The natural product industry has developed a standard of a
95-percent concentration of curcumin," Dr. LaValleyexplains.
"Initially, years ago, that was what we had available for
patients. Even at that, taking a 95-percent concentration orally
in a capsule, only one percent of that could be absorbed. In
order to get amounts of curcumin in the bloodstream that are
reasonable to have therapeutic effect, people had to take large
amounts of curcumin...
In searching the literature, I found that a way to change that,
to dramatically increase the bioavailability, is actually a very
simple process of bringing water to a boil, putting those
capsules or some dry powder (I use it by the teaspoon), and
boiling it for 10 to 12 minutes. That increases the amount of
curcumin dissolved in water from that one-percent amount up to
12 percent or so. That amount is a vast number of curcumin
molecules that are now in a bioavailable or absorbable form."
However, while this is certainly doable, it's really
inconvenient, and great care must be taken to prevent staining
your clothes and kitchen surfaces. It's a significant enough
problem to have been dubbed "yellow kitchen syndrome," as it's
virtually impossible to get the stains out. Turmeric is in fact
an excellent dyeing agent for fabrics, rendering them a
yellow-orange color.
Convenience and efficiency has driven many of the changes in the
forms of curcumin in later years. Because it's a fat-loving or
lipophilic molecule, many newer preparations now include some
sort of oil or fat, which improves its absorbability and
bioavailability. Such preparations typically have seven to eight
times higher absorption than the raw, unprocessed
95-percent-concentration of dry powder. There are also newer
sustained release preparations, which Dr. LaValley prefers and
recommends.
The Connection Between Cancer and Insulin Resistance
If you are overweight, or have high blood pressure, high
cholesterol, and/or diabetes, then in all likelihood insulin and
leptin resistance is a factor. Insulin and leptin resistance is
also a very common factor among cancer patients. From my
perspective, a ketogenic diet (with or without intermittent
fasting) would be a prudent treatment strategy to resolve that
underlying problem. Once you've normalized your insulin and
leptin, you don't necessarily need to maintain a ketogenic diet,
if you find it too restrictive.
"I agree with you that a ketogenic diet is really appropriate in
many cases, probably the significant majority of cases," Dr.
LaValley says. "It's been known for probably 80 years or longer
that solid tumors, and some of the blood cancers, are
sugar-loving. Another term is that they are addicted to sugar.
I use [a] PET scan to demonstrate to patients that here is
objective proof that the tumors you have in your body are
sugar-avid. They're taking up sugar at a rate much higher than
the other regular healthy cells. I want to drive home that
message, so that they are motivated to alter their diet to have
a low, low carb intake, causing their body to generate
additional nutrient supply molecules called ketones...
What that means is that we're trying to provide an anti-cancer
antagonistic pressure on the cancer cells by reducing the amount
of sugar that's readily available for uptake by reducing the
easily available sugar in the diet and compensating for the
nutrient reduction and sugar [reduction] by increasing healthy
fats."
Cutting Down on Protein May Be Particularly Useful for Cancer
Patients
It would also be prudent to assess your protein intake. Many
Americans eat far more protein than required for optimal health.
The reason for this is because your body can actually use excess
protein (you do need some) to stimulate carbohydrate production.
Excess protein also stimulates the mammalian target of rapamycin
(mTOR) pathways, which are useful for building muscles but can
be detrimental when treating cancer, as mTOR is a pathway that
increases cellular proliferation. (Interestingly, the
pharmaceutical drug Metformin, which has anti-cancer activity,
also inhibits mTOR, and it turns out that curcumin has a very
similar effect.)
The formula I recommend for assessing how much protein you might
need in your diet is from Dr. Rosedale, which calls for one gram
of high-quality protein per kilogram of lean body mass, or about
half a gram per pound of lean body mass.
As an example, if your body fat mass is 20 percent, your lean
mass is 80 percent of your total body weight. So, if your total
weight is 200 pounds; you would then divide 160 by 2.2 to
convert pounds to kilograms and come up with 72.7 grams of
protein. If you are doing vigorous exercises or are pregnant,
you can add up to another 25 percent or another 18 grams in this
illustration to increase your total to 90 grams per day.
More Information
Dr. LaValley is available for consultation on a wide variety of
health challenges, including cancer, and he's licensed to
practice medicine in the US and Canada. His medical clinic is
located in Chester, Nova Scotia, where he sees patients.
Americans can fly there either through Chicago or Newark. His
office number is 902-275-4555. He also spends time in Austin,
Texas, where he conducts research. When there, he's available to
consult for other physicians and their patients.
"For instance, if a patient has pancreatic cancer and the
physician wants to implement one of the protocols that I
provide, I will do a consultation with that physician's patient
and then make recommendations to that physician for
implementation," he explains. "In that way, patients are able
to get it locally without having to travel to Nova Scotia...
It's a challenge right now because there's so much information
that's not readily known by so many physicians that they become
afraid. I think one of the biggest issues, certainly in US and
Canada, is that when a physician wants to administer one of
these natural products, or several of them, as well as some of
the off-label pharmaceuticals for their anti-cancer usage, they
are afraid of recriminations or disciplinary actions.
That is, I think, very unfortunate, because the evidence base
does exist for it, and it's consistent with the way that other
types of conventional medicine or practice using off-label
pharmaceuticals as well. I think that the most important
movement that needs to occur is for the patients to recognize
their own value in the decision-making process and demand that
they have access to these therapeutic choices because they're
available, they're supported in the evidence base, and they have
the right to ask for them rather than to just accept whatever
the physician is otherwise offering in the conventional realm."

Agelbert NOTE: When my brother in law was dying of colon cancer
with mets to the liver last year, he began to take Curcumin
massively but it was too late. Curcumin is a strong blood
thinner and he began to bleed profusely. This hastened his
death.
So Curcumin, like may other natural products out there, is
useful in preventing cancer and any condition that a blood clot
could cause like an embolism or heart attack. The KEY is
prevention. Once the cancer is there, something like
concentrated Hemp Oil is in order. Blood thinners are bad news
when you are bleeding from cancer produced tumors or sores.
I am not a doctor; I just read a lot and like to share my
experience. Use discretion.
