Hi, I'm Carol ... welcome to my blog :  


HEALTHY EATING FOR EVERYONE


After many years of extensive research into the latest findings on the healthiest way of eating and the variety of health benefits derived from what we eat I have decided to share some of the good things I've discovered.

Basically there is only one principle to follow - it needs to be fresh and, wherever possible, organically grown (the best fruit and vegetables have got to be those grown in your own garden).

Actually, there are two principles ...

The second is - the greater variety of fruit, vegetables, seeds, legumes, herbs, spices, meat, fish and dairy products that you can include in your everyday healthy eating plan, the greater benefit to improved general health can be achieved.

CANCER - NOW IT'S TIME TO FIGHT BACK!


The natural treatment that shows promise of a better future for cancer sufferers -


SOURSOP





The Annona muricata tree is a flowering evergreen tree native to tropical regions of the world, including Central and South America, parts of Asia and the Caribbean.

Its prickly green fruit has been used for years as a herbal medicine for many ailments and is known in English as Soursop, Brazilians call it Graviola and in Spain it is known as Guanabana.

The fruit is very large and the sub-acid sweet white pulp insidewhich can either be eaten raw or used to make fruit drinkshas been recognised to have  a very beneficial fruit extract, an isolated and pure compound sample)that can be used as a natural therapy to fight and win the battle against cancer, without the adverse side effects of conventional chemotherapy drugs, such as extreme nausea, drastic weight or hair lossand without harming healthy cells.

According to many reliable sources published throughout the Internet
drug industry research from numerous tests carried out as far back as the 1970's have shown that it now may be possible to achieve the following results from this natural source :-
  • Not only inhibit the growth of cancer cells,  but also effectively target and kill malignant cells of 12 different types of cancer, including cancer of the breast, colon, lung,, pancreas and prostate gland
  • Gain a stronger and healthier immune system during the course of the treatment and, in turn, be better protected from deadly infections
  • Boost energy levels and positively uplift moods

Not only do the extracts from Soursop seeds carry beneficial health propertiesbut also the leaves have been found to be cytotoxic to colon,  pancreatic and lung cancer carcinoma cell lines,, with the potential treatment that is reckoned to be equal to, or even exceeding treatment using Adriamycin. 

Bullatacin has been found to be cytotoxic against multi-drug,,Adriamycin, Vincristine and Vinblastine,,resistant human mammary adenocarcinoma cancer) cells.

A study performed by a cancer research team at the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at the University of Nebraska Medical Centre in the USA has revealed that Soursop/Graviola/Guanabana inhibits cellular metabolism,(the means by which numerous signaling pathways manage the growth process, longevity and distribution within the host). As a result of altering these parameters it was found to have considerably reduced the rate of new cancer cell growth and its spread.

Soursop/Graviola/Guanabana is also widely recognised as being a 'broad spectrum anti-agent' for both bacterial and fungal infectionsis effective against internal parasites and worms, lowers high blood pressure and has long been used for depression, stress, and nervous disorders. It has also been identified to effectively combat inflammation.

A word of caution 
: Neurotoxicity

For most people Soursop fruit is considered as a stand alone dessert fruit or a fruit juice that can even be made as an ice cream,... it has been described as having a flavour similar to strawberry and pineapple mixed with either coconut or banana cream ... delicious!

However,  according to several studies,  the fruit has been associated with a neurological disease similar to Parkinsons on Guadeloupe Island in the Caribbean see the 2006 article in the Journal of Neural Transmission.


As with all conventional medicines and all natural remedies caution is always needed before making any purchases to thoroughly research into everything concerned with them, including reputability and extraction methods connected with the manufacturing, distribution and supply of these products, together with always consulting a doctor/professional health advisor.
