Cancer is a subject that holds a lot of fear in
most of our minds. It is something that happens
to people, but the way it occurs and how to effectively treat it remains a mystery even today.
The model we have to deal with it, at the moment, is very aggressive. Chemotherapy, radiotherapy and surgery are all punishing therapies and do
not really allow the body's own natural healing capabilities to come into action. Somehow the body is often considered 'broken' and in need of strong intervention, but this approach has no consideration for the body's own wisdom that put it all together at conception.
Chemotherapy and radiotherapy are effective but only go so far. The intervention is very controlling and masculine. The more feminine nourishment and nurture needed to help a body heal tends to sound ineffective in a clinical setting. Over time though, more and more research has been piling up to support nutrition working alongside mainstream medicine. Aggressive intervention can create more wounds and inflammation that push the body into deeper states of wound healing - physically and emotionally. Recently a paper described cancer as 'a wound that doesn't heal'

Our understanding of how nutrition works in the body has come on leaps and bounds in the last few years. Specific nutrients work at a deep cellular level to slow down the growth of a cell - at last research is starting to back up some folk remedies! Inflammation and uncontrolled growth are the driving force behind tumour growth and nutrition can work with the body to slow growth and reduce inflammation. Nutrition also works well with chemotherapy if an appropriate protocol is chosen. A cell will tend to resist the poisoning from a chemotherapy drug - it's an important survival mechanism! Nutrition can help to bypass this mechanism and reduce chemoresistance and at the same time have its own anti cancer properties. My belief is that the body will always do its best under any given circumstances - it's our job to support it the best we can with care, compassion and wisdom.
