What is Cancer?
Cancer is basically an unregulated cell growth, where the cells divide and grow uncontrollably. The abnormal cell growth usually invades the weaker part of the body, first, then can spread to more distant parts of the body through the lymphatic system or bloodstream. Everyone's "weak spot" is different. A smoker, for example, has forced their lungs and esophagus to be weak, while others can inherently have weak spots that they may not know about. Unfortunately, we create an environment, within our body's, that slowly allow the Abnormal Cell Growth to take place, starting within these weak areas.
The goal in healing, is to help the body regulate its environment, so that the abnormal cells can not grow and spread, while raising your immune system or White Blood Cell count to fight any current Abnormal Cells that do not belong in the body. In other words, Cancer is merely a symptom of the whole body's condition. You must raise your body's PH and keep it alkaline. Abnormal cells mutate in an acid environment.
Our body is designed to be alkaline. The pH of our important fluids such as our blood is designed to be at a pH of 7.365, which is slightly alkaline. Your body HAS to keep the pH of your blood, cells and other fluids at this slightly alkaline level (pH 7.365) and it will do ANYTHING it has to in order to maintain this pH balance. To do this, your body will call upon its store of alkaline buffers, which is perfectly adequate when we are living a natural, healthy diet. However, this store of buffers is very easily depleted because most of us eat and drink such strong acidic foods and do very little exercise - while our lifestyles of high stress, smoking, drinking and getting too little sleep only compounds this problem.
When we deplete these buffers and still ingest more acids…what happens? The body is forced into drawing upon the alkaline minerals it has to buffer which causes havoc in the body. For example, if the body is constantly drawing calcium to neutralize the acids we consume, then the symptoms of osteoporosis emerge (hence the recent scientific studies linking cola consumption with osteoporosis).
What Foods should you eat to maintain an Alkaline Body?
If a food is high in alkaline minerals including magnesium, potassium, calcium or sodium it is likely to be alkaline to the body.
BUT - regardless of its alkaline mineral content, if it contains any of the following then it will be acidifying:
- SUGAR (Fruit is acid-forming due to its high sugar content) The only exceptions to the ‘no fruit rule’ are tomatoes, avocados, lemons & limes (great for dressings and flavorings), grapefruit and watermelon (to some degree) which are alkaline because they are so low in sugar.
- YEAST ·
- is FERMENTED (like soy sauce) ·
- contains FUNGI (like mushrooms) ·
- is REFINED / MICROWAVED / PROCESSED
Frankincense:
The use of Frankincense is beneficial. The Boswellia Serrata Frankincense, over carteri or frereana, has had the most research done on it. The biggest difference is that it doesn't smell as pretty. Sometimes, in the US, we are caught up on the need for a perfect smell, that we forget the real reason we need something, when trying to heal the body.
Note: While the constituents from Frankincense essential oil have been found beneficial, the use of Frankincense tincture/extract is equally important to receive the boswelli acids.
- Boswellic acid is a water-soluble compound that remains in the flora water after the distillation process and cannot be separated as an essential oil.
- Use 1/2 to 1 dropper Frankincense tincture/extract 1-3 times a day.

Frankincense and Cypress:
- Cypress will help the area's circulation and improve the chances of the Frankincense getting to your target area. Layer them, by rubbing 2-3 drops Cypress over the "target area", wait 1 minute and follow with the 2-3 drops of the Frankincense. Doing this while keeping your PH in Balance and eating a proper diet will help tremendously.
- Do not use essential oils during chemotherapy, as they could reduce the therapy's effect. Always contact a physician before using any alternative help.

- Each day, you should drink half your body weight, in ounces. (For example: If you weigh 150 pounds, you should drink 75ounces of water each day.)
