November is Lung Cancer Awareness Month and at Cancer Center For Healing, we want to make sure that you are equipped with the knowledge and tools to prevent and fight cancers.
EGCG, or Epigallocatechin gallate, is a natural compound produced by plants to defend themselves against pathogens and insects. Found in green tea, EGCG can be a powerful tool to defend against cancer for humans. ??
Researchers are linking EGCG to cancer cell death, tumor cell death, slowing blood vessel growth in tumors, and many more processes. EGCG is also linked to improve metabolism and help burn body fat– by nearly four times faster!??
There is so much evidence surrounding and supporting green tea to fight and prevent lung cancer. Harvard has found “an association between consuming green tea and a reduced risk for several cancers, including, skin, breast, lung, colon, esophageal, and bladder.” BBC News reported a study and quoted medical experts, “drinking green tea may offer some protection against lung cancer.”
If you don’t have green tea on hand, Dr. Connealy also recommends drinking turmeric and ginger teas in her book, The Cancer Revolution.
“Turmeric and ginger tea are also great for reducing inflammation and contain powerful antioxidants. Ginger, in fact, is a stronger antioxidant than Vitamin E! All of these teas can help stimulate apoptosis (cancer cell death) and are thought to inhibit angiogenesis (the creation of new tumor cells). Ginger also helps combat nausea and vomiting, two common side effects of chemotherapy.”
With the holidays around the corner come work potlucks and family dinners. Remind yourself that eating well is a form of self-respect. Many times, we often search for the best options—the best health care, to the best car, and even the best toothbrush! As a cancer patient, it’s time to start looking at food the same way and think, “Which one will do the best for my health? Which one will take care of my body?”
When you are ill, you can’t compromise your diet. All your choices matter.
To maximize the effect of your dietary choices, we offer plenty of modalities to complement your cancer treatments from Nutraceutical Therapy to Ozone Therapy. If you would like more info on becoming a patient at Cancer Center For Healing, please contact Dana at [email protected]
In addition, Dr. Connealy imparts her wisdom in educating medical practitioners from all over the world; as well as, public speaking engagements, webinars, and podcasts that include: The Truth About Cancer, a variety of series with Jonathan Otto, Sarah Otto, Nathan Crane, and Dr. Mercola. She offers the most scientifically and technologically advanced equipment and protocols at her clinic located in (Southern California) Irvine.
