Catching a Killer - New Steps Taken in Treating Mesothelioma

Written by Maggie Kay


Continued from page 1

Drug Therapy: A drug called Alimta, developed by Eli Lilly, has been shown to significantly increaserepparttar life expectancy of patients and decrease symptoms ofrepparttar 114406 disease. It isrepparttar 114407 only chemotherapy drug to be approved byrepparttar 114408 Food and Drug Administration forrepparttar 114409 treatment of patients with malignant pleural mesothelioma.

Gene Therapy: This mesothelioma treatment is currently inrepparttar 114410 experimental stages. The process involves inserting a "suicide gene" directly intorepparttar 114411 tumor. This gene makesrepparttar 114412 cells sensitive to a normally ineffective drug called glanciclovir which destroys allrepparttar 114413 cancer cells and leavesrepparttar 114414 healthy cells unharmed.

Photodynamic Therapy: Still in its experimental stage, photodynamic therapy uses light to kill cancerous cells. The patient first receives a photosensitizer that only collects in cancerous cells. Fiberoptic cables are then placed inrepparttar 114415 body in order to focusrepparttar 114416 right frequency of light onrepparttar 114417 tumor. The photosensitizer is then caused to produce a toxic oxygen molecule that killsrepparttar 114418 cancer cell.

Immunotherapy: Also referred to as biological therapy, this mesothelioma treatment usesrepparttar 114419 body's personal immune system to defend itself against mesothelioma. It has been discovered thatrepparttar 114420 immune system is capable of deciphering healthy cells from cancerous cells, and can thus eradicate those cells that cause cancer.

While treatment methods are still inrepparttar 114421 developmental or experimental stages, there is hope that one day all mesothelioma victims will be freed fromrepparttar 114422 murderous hands of this fearsome disease.

Primarily,repparttar effects of aspartame chemicals inrepparttar 114405 body seem to alter key hormones thus creating imbalances in neurotransmitters and blocking other hormone precursors.

So, why haven’t you heard about these dangers before now? Let’s see…the diet industry is a trillion dollar market to many organizations. Obviously, they don’t want this secret information to get out to public ears if you know what I mean.

Aspartame & Children

Children love to consume sweets on a daily basis. Many ofrepparttar 114406 food products that these children are consuming have aspartame sweeteners in them. I would advise all parents to get their kids off of aspartame food items. These foods are not healthy for them. There are plenty of healthy alternatives for any ofrepparttar 114407 items that they enjoy.

Email me and I will give you loads of information. Many kids are diagnosed with ADD and other mood disorders. Many of these conditions are being classified as hyper, behavioral problems and others when in fact these children are being affected byrepparttar 114408 foods they eat. Look at a normal child’s food intake for an average day and you will find that they eat way too much sugar and items with aspartame compounds in them.

This daily consumption of these sweeteners has a harmful effect on their nervous system and therefore becomes expressed as mood disorders and behavioral problems. Take these kids off sugar and these sweeteners and watch them improve.

Pregnant Mothers & Aspartame

If you or anyone you know is pregnant then I would say just stay away from these dangerous sweeteners forever. Make sure you read labels and make it a conscious intent to haverepparttar 114409 whole family keep clean of these products. It will help your whole family out I assure you.

If you are pregnant and consume aspartame foods you will only be hurtingrepparttar 114410 development ofrepparttar 114411 child. Doing so can cause neurological imbalances and other cellular damage.

STAY AWAY FROM ALL PRODUCTS THAT CONTAIN THE VARIOUS FORMS OF ASPARTAME! These include aspartame, nutra sweet, splenda, spoonful, equal. Read your labels and throw away all items that have these compounds in them. Take responsibility for your diet. If you choose to continue to consume aspartame after reading this chapter well then you arerepparttar 114415 one to payrepparttar 114416 consequences.

What Will I Use To Sweeten My Drinks & My Food

Relax! I know you enjoy sugar and do not want to give up great tasting foods and beverages. You don’t have to. There are some great natural sugar alternatives that I feel taste better than sugar andrepparttar 114417 other toxic substances mentioned earlier.

To sweeten your drinks you can use Stevia. Stevia is a natural herb that is actually hundreds of times sweeter than regular sugar. It has no fat, carbohydrates or calories and is perfectly suitable for people with diabetes, low carb diets and people with candida and other parasitic conditions. Stevia does not cause spikes in blood sugar and has a nourishing effect onrepparttar 114418 body. It has been used for centuries among various cultures.

You can get stevia at any health food store inrepparttar 114419 dietary supplement section. There are 2 products: 1 is a liquid concentrate- I recommend this for sweetening beverages like teas and shakes. The other is a ground up version and is in powder form. I recommend this for foods like cereal or oatmeal.

Agave syrup is an awesome food product. You will love this sweetener guaranteed. It is a compound similar to honey only that it comes from a cactus plant inrepparttar 114420 desert. I believe that it tastes better than honey and can used on pancakes, cookies and to sweeten baked goods. Try it and see! You can find this at most health food stores. If they don’t have it then ask them to carry it.

Rice syrup is also a good sugar alternative. It can be used in various ways and has a pleasant taste.

Date Paste is very sweet and can be added to baked goods and pancakes, waffles and cookies.

Fruit Juice Concentrates can be used to sweeten baked foods as well.

Barley Malt Syrup is another great alternative.

Honey – old time favorite for many, can be used also in various ways from sweetening drinks to sweetening baked goods. Use only organic varieties.

I would say to just buy some of these sweeteners and see which ones you like. They are all healthy to consume on a daily basis and you will feelrepparttar 114421 difference. You will not miss regular sugar believe me. Your body will thank you I assure by eating natural sugars. If you want some recipes on how to use these sweeteners then let me know via email.

The Truth About Sweet-N-Low

There have many reports that state Sweet-N-Low can be carcinogenic when used frequently. I remember when I was a child I heard that this can be a harmful compound torepparttar 114422 body. The truth ofrepparttar 114423 matter is that Sweet-N-Low is not harmful to your body. The chemical structure of this substance does not have any damaging effects to your cells as dorepparttar 114424 sugar substitutes mentioned earlier.

I stated previously thatrepparttar 114425 important thing of any compound isrepparttar 114426 chemical structure and its biological effects once inrepparttar 114427 body. Sweet-N-Low has no negative effects once inrepparttar 114428 body. It is actually a good substitute for sugar.

So why have there been reports that state Sweet-N-Low can be carcinogenic? Do you remember where you heard this? I bet you picked it up via your TV or some other media outlet. Who divulged this information? I hope by now you are beginning to see that there are some organizations that don’t want you knowing information that can benefit your health.

The misinformation about Sweet-N-Low was released to get you to not want to ingest it so that you would then resort to other sugar substitutes…do you understand? Again, there are agendas in place to get you to believe certain things about health and various food products.

They… (this includes all organizations colluding to carry out their corrupt agendas) program society viarepparttar 114429 media outlets (TV, magazines, newspapers, radio, etc). Then when people hearrepparttar 114430 truth such as Sweet-N-Low is actually good they don’t believe it because they have been programmed to believerepparttar 114431 opposite. My advice to you is stop watchingrepparttar 114432 news and reading newspapers. There is always misinformation in these outlets…not just health information byrepparttar 114433 way. Name a subject and you have been programmed about it. Don’t believe me…great…I challenge you to research what I am saying.

So there you have it. You now knowrepparttar 114434 truth about sugar and sugar substitutes. Please use this information immediately.
