Learn More About Colon Cancer Alternative Treatments

If you have a family history or colorectal cancer, or if you exercise little and have a high fat/low fiber diet, then you want to be aware of the symptoms of colon cancer.

Symptoms of colon cancer may include: general abdominal discomfort, blood in the stool (bright red, or dark), constipation, diarrhea, narrower stools than usual, tiredness and vomiting, weight loss for no apparent reason.

As with all cancer, early detection is vital. Means of detection include: digital rectal exams (recommended annually after 40) and fecal occult blood loss (stool sample testing over 50).

Traditional treatments for colorectal cancer include surgery, chemotherapy and radiation. Today, there are alternative cancer treatments, which can be used with or without the use of conventional cancer treatment methods, to support your cancer battle.

It goes without saying that you need to thoroughly research any alternative treatment, and to consult with your doctor, to ensure the remedy is safe for you in your health condition. Many alternative treatments are not recommended if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, so the safest is to assume it is not an option for you, (unless you can find reliable medical literature that suggests otherwise).

1: Cut down on your Sugar Intake and increase your Oxygen Intake Cancer cells love sugar and hate oxygen. This means you want your blood sugar down to the low normal range and your blood oxygen levels at the high 99-100% range.

2: You need a Strong Immune System to act as a 1st Line of Defense This means sunshine, fresh air, clean water and outdoor exercise.

3: Go on a Macrobiotic Diet. This diet gradually eliminates meat, dairy foods, eggs and sugar. Meals are made up of whole grains (such as brown rice and millet), vegetables (baked, boiled, or steamed), and fruits. There is a major emphasis on raw, and freshly squeezed quality raw juices. You may need to supplement with calcium, magnesium, B12 and iron.

4: Drink Green Tea

Green tea, has been used for medicinal purposes in parts of Asia for centuries. It contains polyphenols with potent antioxidant properties. Some studies show that drinking green tea helps inhibit tumor growth.

5: Take Paw Paw

Paw Paw, which comes from a fruit typically grown in the eastern US, contains acetogenins. Some researchers believe Paw Paw can help fight cancer and its symptoms. Do not take at the same time you take CoEnzymeQ10 or any other supplement that raises ATP levels. Similarly do not take if you are on prescription medications, without consulting your doctor about interactions.

Eating healthy, and getting exercise outdoors are contributors to a general well-being and healing. Dietary and lifestyle changes recommended in alternative cancer treatment are often recommended for individuals seeking to optimize their heath.
