For those already taking chemotherapy, can they use A-E in addition? Yes. Chemo, most other drugs and radiation destroy Vitamin B Complex and other vitamins. By supplementing these vitamins, the improved diet fights the harmful side effects of the chemo, such as nausea, weight loss and hair loss.  Does A-E interfere with chemo? No. If anything, it makes the chemo more effective and tolerated.
   Malnutrition, the lack of A-E, may be reversed if A-E is initiated soon enough. Delaying the start of A-E makes cancer all the harder to treat with positive results.
   There is another way that cancer can begin in the body—by not following the A-E. I will repeat here various elements very briefly:
  “A” stands for avoiding  all toxic substances (coffee, tea, soft drinks and “energy” drinks, chocolate, tobacco, alcohol, legal and illegal drugs, artificial preservatives, dyes, sweeteners, flavoring agents, fluorides in toothpastes and mouthwashes, sugar and excessive amounts of salt. Of all the toxic elements, caffeine is the most addicting and cancer-forming.
 “B” stands for BE SURE to eat some raw, uncooked vegetables or fruit with each meal.
 “C” reminds us to COMPLEMENT the diet with supplements, multiple vitamins and minerals of sufficient strength, saw palmetto, lecithin, Royal Jelly and CalMag, that help get rid of diseases. Lastly, do the proper Exercises to maintain healthy body elements, and live a long life, free of pain and disease.

   I will repeat what I wrote at the end of ISSUE 1 about when treatment should be discontinued:

  Is there a time when to give up treating a patient with medication or other medical therapy? Yes.

  Is there a time to stop with nutritious food and the ABC DIET? As long as the patient can take food by mouth and avoid all the items in the “A” list which make them more ill, it would be advisable to continue. Foods by mouth can be pureed, and fruits can be blended together and then immediately given, followed in four hours, by pureed vegetables given in the same manner. Do not give fruits and vegetables at the same time because they contain different enzymes. Never try to keep the juices more than a half hour after they have been pureed because the fresh enzymes they contain die within twenty minutes after pureeing. If the patient has not drunk the juice within a half hour, it should be discarded or drunk by someone else. Such a nutritional therapy may not reverse the dying process but it can relieve much of the pain and suffering, but, then again, it just might...
   For a patient who can no longer take nutrition by mouth, there is a method called T.P.N., or total parenteral nutrition. My feeling is that, although there are some nutrients that can be given by injection, one is only prolonging the agony to give a cancer patient T.P.N. because it does not contain endogenous enzymes which help to sustain life. Unless A-E  is utilized, along with fresh miso soup for the enzymes, the point where to treat a patient and not to treat a patient ends with the needle.
   Wouldn’t it be wonderful if regional medical institutes, hospitals and clinics, like M.D. Anderson, Sloan Kettering, Duke, Johns Hopkins, Boston, L.A .and elsewhere, were re-established to treat cancer patients with nutritious, body-restoring food, and. with physicians to treat  patients with minimal surgery, toss out the giant X-ray machines and chemotherapy areas to make room for pureeing fruits and vegetables.  The very thought of all this is like, “they shall break their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks (Isaiah 2:4).”  Surely, the Messiah can’t be very far away!
   Orthodox medicine divides cancerous conditions into carcinomas (cancer of epithelial tissue), sarcomas (cancer of connective tissue), lymphomas (cancers of the lymphatic system), and leukemias (cancers of the blood system).  These are further subdivided into the location of the cancer, such as gastrointestinal, genitourinary, hepatic, brain, ear, breast, colon, pituitary, and so on.
    Since I feel that these are mere manifestations of the same disease, I will discuss them all under the general classification of Cancer. To me, it makes just as much sense to describe cancers as tumors of the epithelial and connective tissue, and non-tumors of lymphatic and  blood system.
    What causes these tumors and non-tumor cancers? And why are some tumors malignant and others non-malignant? The answers are:
   1. Malignant tumors, the patient has been eating huge amounts of animal protein and fat for a long, long time, and the proteolytic enzymes have been destroyed.  The precancer cells have become cancerous, and the tumor grows increasingly larger.
 2. Non-malignant tumors,   the pancreas and the proteolytic enzymes  are still healthy, but the presence of such huge amounts of animal protein and fat over a long period of time makes tumors in order to dispose of the extra tissue that has to be disposed of in the body, somehow and somewhere.
 3. Non-tumors,  the result, not of over-eating protein or fat, but junk, like items in the “A” group of the ABC DIET:
              1. Methylxanthine derivatives: coffee, tea, chocolate, soft drinks. All are toxic and addictive.
             2.  Man-made chemicals: Sweeteners: Sweet’N Low, Nutrasweet, Equal and man-concentrated white sugar.
 Flavoring and coloring agents which use chemical dyes.
 Preservatives-- sodium or potassium benzoate, sulfites and others.
 *Drugs—the street varieties, prescription and over-the-counter drugs.
 Tobacco, alcohol, fluoride toothpaste or mouthwashes,
    White flour, used to make white bread, cake, candy, cookies and other products, is not the healthiest ingredient in the marketplace. It is so highly refined to make it white that about twenty-six vitamins and minerals are removed in the refining process.  Then, to make it seem healthier, six of them are replaced.  Net loss in nutrition in this product, twenty healthful ingredients.
                3. Salt fits in a category by itself: It is not man-made. It is essential in small amounts to maintain good health. The chloride ion from salt combines with the hydrogen ion to manufacture hydrochloric acid in the stomach to help in the process of digestion. Sodium, in salt, combines with potassium to distribute nutrition and waste products between the cells and the surrounding fluid. However, salt can be toxic if taken in excess of the amount needed to maintain good health.
               Is it possible to eat some of the “A” products without dying of cancer or other illnesses? Yes, but it should be understood that the more of these one eats or drinks, the greater is the danger to the body.
             I am reminded of the person who loves to eat chocolate and came down with CLL (chronic lymphocytic leukemia). By partial abstinence, her symptoms have become greatly lessened.
               *Some prescription drugs and over-the-counter drugs are essential for some patients at some time, but that should be determined by the physician who is treating and prescribing them for the patient.
             I believe that physicians should increase or reduce both the number of drugs and the strength of each one, as the patient’s health changes. This is  a static process.  No one’s health remains the same over an extended period of time. There is no doubt that taking, or not taking, vitamins, minerals, other supplements and doing exercise, can have a profound effect on the amount of medicine needed. My mother’s health in her later years proved that to me. This is why I have written the different ISSUES on my website.
