Colon Cancer and Detoxification
This is a story about how important is to detoxify your body. WE ARE WHAT WE EAT! It is so true...
My name is Elena and I am 78 years old. Twenty years ago I was diagnosed with colon cancer. I had a large tumor on my colon and doctors gave me 4 more years to live, if I operate right away. It was a very tough choice: if I accept the surgery, I might live 4 more years, if I don't, I might die tomorrow...
I believe in natural medicine and I saw a naturopathic doctor who saved my life. I got rid of the tumor without surgery, by following naturopathic treatment for three years. It wasn't easy at all, but I followed it religiously because I totally believed in it and I was determined to succeed.
The treatment consisted of two major detoxification phases and mostly raw diet.
The first detoxification phase was extremely tough, two weeks fasting, no food at all, only drinking water (distilled). Every night vaginal douche with White Mallow tea and anal enema with Celadine tea. (Enema is a colonic irrigation, very unpleasant!)
After two weeks I started to eat raw foods, like salads made with wheat germ, apples, honey, parsley root, celery root, beet root, walnuts, pumpkin seeds, uncooked rice (previously soaked). I followed this diet for 40 days, combined with aerobic exercise for 30 minutes per day.
After 40 days of raw food diet I went on another diet for 3 years. No meats, no breads, no sugar, no oil. Very rarely one egg or one potato! I lost a lot of weight, but I was toned because of the exercise. My skin went through a lot of changes, but finally it cleared up.
After 3 years I followed the second detoxification cure. 14 days fasting, drinking distilled water and a cup of tomato juice every day. After the 14 days, the diet was steamed rice, honey, 4 cups tomato juice per day and 2 cups Sage tea per day. Every night the douche and the enema. One morning my tumor fell in the toilet! It was as big as a large grapefruit!
So here I am, cancer free at 78 and counting. I thank God every day for giving me the strength to go through this. I thank Mother Nature every day for giving us the plants and the solutions for all the diseases. And yes, detoxification is so important and WE ARE WHAT WE EAT!
