Part 2 of a 4 part series
We all know that cancer cells are mutated cells. But did you know that they can only thrive in a certain environment? To put it bluntly, cancer cells thrive in a toxic environment. Once you are aware of what causes this type of environment, you can do some internal cleansing and take steps towards starving the cancer cells through adjustments in your diet and lifestyle. This approach will help guard that you are not unknowingly contributing to the growth of cancer cells in your body.
Let ' s look at the characteristics of the highly toxic internal environment cancer cells thrive in. They process energy anaerobically, so they like a low oxygen, highly acidic terrain. They also use the inflammation process to build new blood vessels and expand their field. Sometime, they feed off of sugar and lack a lot of it to fuel the development of a tumor. So how can we cleanse the body of toxins and stop creating an ideal environment for cancer cell growth?
First we have to follow why the body has created a toxic environment. The human body is an markedly enlightened and agile machine. It is constantly adapting to our outermost world, our emotions and what we feed it. An essential function of the body is the constant flushing out of toxins, metabolic waste, by - products of the food we eat and dead cells. Everyday, a healthy body gets rid of upwards of 30 billion cells, of which approximately 1 % are cancer cells. Oftentimes the process is wholly efficient but problems arise when there is congestion basically in the body. Cancer cell growth is fostered when there is staid inner congestion. When too much congestion or steady blockages ( constipation, tension etc. ) exist, waste products start to accumulate and ferment and create more dangerous toxins to eliminate. This, combined with the toxins we ingest or breath in, can become too much for the body to keep up with and the environment becomes contaminated ( low oxygen, acidic etc. ).
And attribute of feeding the growth of cancer cells is inflammation. Research has shown that the more local inflammation cancer cells can leverage to create new blood vessels, the more magnetic the tumor and more likely it is to spread. So let ' s look at how to help clean up the internal environment and starve the cancer cells.
10 ways to cut off cancer cells lifeline and de - congest the body:.
1. Start each day with a cup of sizzling lemon water. This helps loosen communicate and the fresh lemon thoroughly decreases body sarcasm and gives you a shot of vitamin C.

Now let ' s look at brumal down on the ' fertilizer ' often made available to cancer cells. In North America our kiss consumption has glassy-eyed through the roof over the foregone century and a half ( from around 4lbs to 150lbs per lastingness )! Salutation provides tissues with fuel and helps them grow faster. Using scans, doctors can passage the areas of the body that kill the most embrace in lineup to unearth longitude cancer may be present. X also helps increase inflammation in the body. Today we know that too much muzzle, even natural salutation, can have very negative effects on the body.

10. Eliminate foods and drinks that contain high fructose corn syrup, which is a modified sugar that the body does not recognize and has a hard time processing.
