Cancer survivors: Detoxification = recovery starts with these 5natural stages.

Detoxification, # 1 step to recovery for cancer survivors, involves 5 natural stages.

Stage 1. Refers to how toxic your lifestyle is and it involves paying attention to your habits.

If fully / highly toxic, you need to get de- numb- ed; toxicity often leaves people numb towards their reactions to the world.

* if you are smoking, work on stopping that * avoid alcohol, coffee and regular tea: these will only over-load your liver ( the major elimination organ) even more. * avoid condiments sauces: mustard, ketchup , Worcester sauce, MSG, steak, BBQ, chilli shrimp and soy sauce , pickled vegetables, relishes, salad dressings ( unless homemade)

These will affect the liver and the kidneys, therefore slowly shutting down all your elimination apparatus.

Stage 2. Involves paying more attention to what you eat

By adding more vegetables and fruits, you are giving your body fiber for detoxification and necessary nutrients for both detoxification and healing.

* Water is the medium that transports toxins out of the body and nutrients to the elimination organs necessary to strengthen them.

* Most meats are full of antibiotics, hormones and pesticides, due to the farming environment they came from, not to count the stress substances secreted by the animals while being killed.

Allergens place the body in a constant fighting state; by their own definition, allergens are foreign substances that the body rejects. When your body constantly wastes energy fighting these, its energy stores will be depleted when time to heal or detoxify arrives.

Stage 3. Involves repair done to the 2 major detoxification organs during medical procedures of treating cancer.

*The liver , besides many other functions, is responsible for breaking down medication ( anesthetics, chemotherapeutic, drugs, radiation effects, etc.) . Once the liver clogged, it cannot continue detoxifying the body of all remaining toxins.

The best way to balance the liver is through 2 phases:

* drainage = cleaning up it's own toxins * supportive therapy = strengthening and boasting it's powers.

* Allopathic treatments often lead to intestinal damage ,like increased intestinal permeability, therefore allowing for increased absorption of pathogens, allergens and toxins. In return, this process ends up putting more stress on your immune system, decreasing its ability to focus on healing.

The body's ability to protect itself from toxic substances and the body's ability to heal are both dependent on the integrity of the intestinal lining.

The intestinal damage is easily taken care of in 2 stages:

* eliminate/ clean up all pathogens ( yeast, pesticides, pathogenic bacteria, etc.) and also all the damage caused. By allopathic treatments. * restore the normal, good bowel flora

Once the first 2 stages are completed, you are ready to consider the next stage...

In Stage 3, you need to re- evaluate your medications: pain, depression, etc.

Are they all necessary?

Remember: Drugs are chemicals, therefore they have to be metabolized by the liver; they cause side-effects and their end products of their metabolism are toxins.

One example of over prescribed medications are antibiotics.

Considering that most infections are viral, antibiotics are none other than toxins! In addition, thee are many natural alternatives( homeopathics, herbs, nutritional supplements), that work by addressing the cause of your problem.

Stage 4. of your natural recovery involves preparation of emunctories ( =elimination organs). Before pouring toxins out of the cells I into the blood, you must "open the gates "; so the toxins will leave the body, rather than being over-circulated in the blood while causing degeneration, or depositing into fat tissues. This storage is also called " drainage".

In stage 5. you must ensure the elimination organs are strong enough to handle all toxicity and also continue keeping up with your body's demands.

The best way to support the major detoxification organs are:

* by giving them a rest

You can re- direct toxins elimination through the skin rather than the usual route by doing saunas, sweating regularly ( aerobic exercise) and niacin therapy. Another way of "resting" your digestive elimination organs is by mimicking a fast: Digestive enzymes will help you digest without the digestive organs actually working very hard.

* by using supportive supplementation: fibre, vitamin C and other anti-oxidants, chlorophyll, different herbs such as garlic, red clover, cayenne.etc.

Detoxification is your first step towards cancer recovery.

As a cancer survivor, remember: you are a winner already! Keep going and enjoy life! Your cancer recovery starts with the first step. = detoxification.
