After five days of no-rice-at-dinner dieting regime,
my blood feels like Ciliwung at the peak of drought season,
and my throat and nose feel like they have grown thorns illegally. And my brain feels like its neurons had decided to take a day off.

Sigh ~

Malnutrition is not good. But this can't be malnutrition, I have just been dieting for 5 days! This got to be something else. Something like......the changing of the season?

Nevermind. Better get back to bed, again...this Decolsin is acting like CIA conspiring with my organs and telling them to go disfunctional if I don't take a sleep.

Sorry, Pat, those storyboards need some delays....just blame the influenza!

For the past two weeks, heavy smoke has been invading area around Riau and West Sumatra on the Sumatra Island of Indonesia. The smoke is a result of simultant fire broke out on various and spread locations all over the Sumatra regions. Various sources have been indicating that many of the hotspots occured due to land clearance done by local people to free lands from the present trees and bushes so that they could plant crop plants such as palm and sagu. Other hotspots occured due to the sun overheating dry plant materials and ignite them.

This smoke has reached an area on a Padang Island where I was supervising a hydrocarbon well production test. The area itself, as of the time of this writing is done, is still under siege by filth-ridden smoke generated by large fire outbreak on the several marsh areas around the site. The smoke from the nearby areas and the smoke coming from across the Lalang Strait (the strait that separates Padang Island and Sumatra Island) meet at the well sites, personnel camps, and central offices. Not to mention that on the island, there are several flare stacks that has been burning gas and churning out smokes and can contribute to the smog.

This gathering of hazardous filth-ridden smoke has been creating problems for the people around Padang Island. One of the problems is heavy smog hovering on the areas during night and morning time. The smog hovers because cold temperature causes the air to be heavier and make the water and solid particles it carried to go to lower parts of the atmosphere. When it can't go lower, it will stay on the ground level and causing the smog. Because of its nature of carrying solid particles, the smog is hazardous to breathing health of people unfortunate enough to be on the island. This writer is one of the unfortunates, and I have been reluctant to go outdoor due to this health attacking phonemenon.

Another problem is related to traffic of vehicles. Many vehicles serving the island and its inhabitants are speed boats and LCT ships. Those two type of marine transports rely heavily on visual clearance. The smog, with its heavy density and colloidal natures, deters the visual clearance and can cause accidents if the marine transports are not careful when threading the violent current of the strait. This smog will also cause the marine transports to go slower and thus dragging down the overall speed of activities of the island.

There are many problems caused by the smog and fire hotspots that caused them. Resources are being spent to put out the fires. Helicopters are rented by the government to locate and identitify hotspots; water-bomber planes are rented to help snuff out the fires; and firemen from the company and from the government are working overtimes to combat marsh fires that can occur repeatedly even when they have been snuffed out.

I will write a separate article on marshes around the Island and the fires that can appear repeatedly during "fire seasons".

For now, if not put ouf fast and in short times, the fire and smog will cause many losses especially financial and health-related losses.

Pagi hari adalah waktu yang baik untuk menempa diri dengan berolahraga. Udara yang masih low pollution, tubuh yang masih tak terkena terpaan kekejaman tempat kerja (boss dan air conditioner yang dingin), dan kesegaran sejuk pagi yang berembun.

Maka berangkatlah aku menyongsong pagi, mengayunkan langkahku. Kubuka pintu rumah dan kudorong pintu gerbang dan kusapa sejuknya udara pagi. Kuhirup, dan kuresapi. Rasanya beda. Tak ada tekanan di situ. Jiwaku menyambut pagi tanpa persiapan apa-apa, dan dia pun menyapaku “Apa kabar, tak biasanya kamu melepas topengmu”

Ah, pagi. Maafkan aku yang selalu memelukmu dengan tipu daya sehingga membuatmu selalu mengambek dan membalas dengan kepekatan gelap jiwa.

Tapi pagi ini aku tak ingin memelukmu begitu saja. Aku ingin memelukmu erat, ingin kunikmati kamu, dan ingin kucari memori bersamamu.

Maka kulangkahkanlah kaki-kaki ku, menapaki bumi yang masih berselimut embun pagi. Kudaki bukit kecil yang memisahkanku dengan dunia. Kuhirup kau dalam-dalam, Pagi.

Terus kulangkahkan diri ini, melangkah cepat, menggerakkan tungkai-tungkai yang biasanya terkulai tak berguna di bawah meja cubicle, hanya berayun-ayun tak jelas sementara jari-jari bekerja extra keras. Sekarang saatnya membangunkan otot-otot kaki, dan mengalirkan darah segar penuh gizi ke tungkai penopang tubuh ini.

Oh, Pagi, tapi apa yang kurasakan ini?

Ternyata kau tak sesegar yang kuduga. Manusia-manusia itu memang tidak sabaran. Sepagi ini, kaleng-kaleng rombeng itu pun masih bergulir. Suara deru dan nafas nya menebar polusi di pagi ini. Tak bisa kunikmati kau lekat-lekat, Pagi. Nafas ini harus kujaga supaya sedikit saja tersentuh partikulat-partikulat beracun yang dihembuskan oleh mereka-mereka.

Memang tak seindah yang kuduga, tapi tak apa lah. Terus kuayunkan langkahku, mendaki tangga-tangga yang membawaku melayang di atas ruas-ruas jalan yang tak pernah tertidur. Kukeluarkanlah kameraku tercinta, Canon Powershot A700 (6x zoom), dan kubidiklah pemandangan urban yang terkadang indah ketika surya masih tertidur.

Tapi apa mau dikata, ternyata catu daya Cammy ku tersayang habis. Dia pun menolak kupakai dan hanya mengambek, kembali tertidur.

Ya sudahlah, dan ku pun terus berjalan di bawah udara pagi yang mendung. Sesekali langit menyapaku dengan rintik-rintik kecil. Kupandang langit, gelap, tapi dia pun tersenyum. Aku pun tersenyum balik. Tak akan hujan lebat.

Kupun terus berjalan. Berjalan di sisi sebuah jalan yang tak pernah tidur. Kupandang lah sekitarku: gedung-gedung, tinggi maupun pendek. Tembok-tembok bercat putih dan lukisan-lukisan liar yang menggerayangi keputihan itu. Manusia, manusia; kapan kau bisa mengekang diri?

Ku pun terus mengayunkan langkahku, dan kulewati rentang-rentang baja, dan sebuah kereta baja pun melesat di atasnya. Angin liar pun menghantamku, tapi aku lebih tangguh. Dia tak lebih dari angin yang akan menghilang, dan aku lebih dari angin: aku kan terus exist!

Dan kuayunkan langkahku sekarang cepat-cepat; rumahku sudah dekat; kaki-kaki ku pun mulai mengeluh. Tapi apa itu? Sebuah minimarket 24 jam! Kubawa kaki-kaki itu masuk, dan kubeli beberapa konsumsi. Hey, aku hanya manusia, butuh makan dan butuh minum!

Dan aku pun melangkah ke rumah, mengakhiri petualangan bersama pagi ini. Kubuka gerbang rumah, kututup. Kulangkahkan diri ke dalam rumah, dan kulepas sepatuku. Dan baru kusadari:

Kok aku make sepatu kantoran sih?

Dasar robot kantor ~”~

December 4th, 2007, Jessica Sherwood had to do something no mother should ever have to do.
At 2:29 pm Jessica made a very tough, but the right decision to take her little 3 month old daughter off life support.
In memory of little London Marie, i thought id start a little forward..
Jessica had a message that i want every one to know..

This is what jessica said:

IF NE ONE HAS KIDS MAKE SURE U KEEP THEM WIT U THE WHOLE TIME DNT GIVE THEM TO NE ONE THAT U DNT TRUST..... TRUST ME I THOUGHT I TRUSTED JOSH..... BUT NOW AS OF 12-4-07 AT 2:29AM SHE IS GONE.... MY ONE AND ONLY BABY....... AND HE IS GUNNA PAY FOR EVER EVEN IF HE GETS OUTTA JAIL SCOTT FREE HE WILL BE DEAD NO MATTER WAT......... TO ALL MY FRIENDS AND THAT KNO LONDON I AM VERY ANGRY AND UPSET I LOST THE LOVE OF MY LIFE MY BABY GIRL.... SHE DIED ON HER 3MONTH BDAY........

SHE HAD 6 FRACTURED RIBS..... BOTH OF HER LEGS WERE FRACTURED.... AND HER BRAIN WAS SO DAMANAGED THAT IF SHE WERE TO LIVE SHE WOULD BE A VEGETABLE.... SO I DID WAT WAS RIGHT AND BEST FOR HER AND TOOK HER OFF LIFE SUPPORT...

THATS WAT U CALL SHAKEN BABY SYNDROM REMEMBER THAT...

For those of you who dont know what Shaken Baby Syndrome is..read this

Shaking, jerking and jolting can cause blood vessels in the head to tear or burst.

Shaken Baby Syndrome is the shaking of an infant or child by the arms, legs, or shoulders with or without impact of the head. This trauma can result in bleeding and brain injury with no outward signs of abuse.


Often frustrated caregivers feel that shaking a baby or small child is a harmless way to make the child stop crying. However, a baby's brain and blood vessels are vulnerable to whiplash motions, such as shaking, jerking, jolting, and impact. The neck muscles of an infant or small child are weak, so the child's head is relatively heavy and the neck cannot support the stress of shaking or impact.

Shaking a very young child, with or without impact of the head, can cause irreversible brain damage, blindness, cerebral palsy, hearing loss, spinal cord injury, seizures, learning disabilities, and even death. It is tragic that healthy, intelligent babies are suffering these disabilities simply because their caregivers don't know about the dangers associated with Shaken Baby Syndrome.

An estimated 1,200 to 1,400 cases of Shaken Baby Syndrome (SBS) occur each year in the United States. Only 1 out of 4 babies dies of Shaken Baby Syndrome. HOWEVER, the other three babies will need ongoing medical attention for the rest of their short lifespans

What's wrong with fluoridation?
... Follow the Money
Excerpts from The Secret War and
The Fluoride Conspiracy, by Dr. Geoffrey E. Smith

The U.S. National Academy of Sciences has always measured the safety of fluoridation on the basis of one study of crippling skeletal fluorosis, which was first published in 1935.

EPA's regulation for the maximum allowable concentration of fluoride in drinking water was established for one purpose - to prevent this disease. However crippling is the end stage of chronic fluoride poisoning. The earlier stages involve gastrointestinal problems, arthritis, and osteoporosis. None of these earlier symptoms are considered in the regulation ... only the end stage.

In 1985, when EPA raised the maximum contaminant level to 4 milligrams of fluoride per liter of water, they used dosage figures equal to those miscalculated in 1953 by Harold C. Hodge, who was chairman of the NAS committee on toxicology. Hodge's original figures (20-80 mg/day for 10-20 years) were corrected by Hodge in 1979, and by NAS in 1993. The corrected figures, based on Roholm's classic study of workers in the cryolite industry, amount to 0.2 to 0.35 milligrams of fluoride per kilogram of body weight per day, for eleven years. When extrapolated over a lifetime of 55 to 96 years, these crippling dosage figures equal 1 milligram of fluoride daily for each 55 pounds of body weight ... 0.04 mg/kg/day.

In the early years of water fluoridation, this dosage was not the norm. At that time, water was virtually the only source of fluoride in the American diet. The total intake for most adults was 0.02 mg/kg/day ... about one to one and a half milligrams of fluoride daily.

Today, the figure is 0.095 mg/kg/day... from food and drinking water alone ... more than 6 milligrams daily.

This increase in ingested fluoride, largely due to the use of artificial fertilizers containing fluoride, pesticide residues, dental products, and modern food processing, has changed a relatively safe dosage into one capable of causing crippling deformities of the spine and major joints, as well as the muscle pain associated with fibromyalgia.

Beer and wine often contain significant quantities of fluoride, as does ordinary tea. Grape juice often contains even larger quantities of fluoride, due to the widespread use of pesticides, which remain on the grape skin. Fluoride in toothpaste can be absorbed through the tissues of the mouth, as well as swallowed accidentally. Many prescription drugs also contain fluoride. None of these items are labeled to indicate the quantity of fluoride added to the daily dietary total.

In other words, what began as a reasonable risk has become the proverbial "straw that breaks the camel's back."

Why, then, does fluoridation continue to be an accepted public health practice? Why does the U.S. government offer grants to cities willing to add fluoride to their water supply?

Why, in light of the facts, would so many people and institutions allow the poisoning of an entire population?

In order to understand, we must go back in time, to the origin of water fluoridation, and the financial interests. We must follow the money trail.

We must also consider the concept of a control group in establishing cause and effect. Without a control group, the effect of fluoride gases are confused with the effect of fluoridated water or toothpaste. This camouflage has served the interests of powerful corporations since 1945.

Fluorine constitutes 0.065 per cent of the elements of the earth's crust and is a significant component of the total biogeochemical cycle in which life has evolved. Mankind has always been exposed to fluoride in the environment; and fluoride has always been a trace constituent of our diet and a component of our body fluids, tissues and skeleton.

Indeed, the ubiquitous occurrence of fluoride in nature means that it would be virtually impossible to prepare a diet entirely free of fluoride.

But, until the start of the industrial revolution, most of the flouride in the environment was safely 'locked-up' in rocks, coal and clays, and only relatively small amounts were released either as a result of volcanic activity (HF can be detected in volcanic gases), coal burning, or the slow leaching of fluoride into some waters.

Today, most of the fluoride that enters the human body is from man-made sources.

Over the past 50 years, a variety of industries have released into the atmosphere more than 25,000,000 tons of fluoride gases and particulates.

Dentists will argue, correctly, that mankind has always been exposed to fluoride in the environment. We have also been exposed to trace amounts of arsenic, lead, cadmium, and background radiation. The human body can handle certain levels of potentially harmful substances, there's no doubt about that. But, remember, there are 'threshold levels' above which the poison begins to harm the body or the way it functions. Since each one of us is metabolically unique, some people are more sensitive to fluoride than others. Today, a significant proportion of the fluoride that enters the human body is from modern man-made sources, and all the indications are that you and your family are now being over-exposed to what scientists in the Manhattan Project named - the Devil's Element.

You will have heard of fluoride. It's the miracle ingredient in your toothpaste, and the chemical they put in public water supplies to prevent cavities in teeth.

You may have heard of hydrogen fluoride. It's a common, particularly dangerous but relatively unknown air pollutant produced by the most powerful industries including: steel mills, iron foundries, copper, zinc and aluminum smelters, plastics manufacturers, fertilizer works, agro-chemical factories, petro-chemical refineries, brick works, glass factories, coal-burning power stations, and nuclear processing plants. The use of unleaded gasoline puts more fluoride into the air.

If health authorities were to set air pollution standards for hydrogen fluoride which were harmless, then certain key industries in our technologically-oriented society would almost grind to a halt.

This dilemma led to the most bizarre conspiracy of modern times in which captains of industry and national security agencies combined to ruthlessly suppress evidence of the dangers of hydrogen fluoride air pollution; and, cynically used a healing profession - dentistry - to promote an apparently beneficial image for fluoride.

The result is that we live in an increasingly 'fluoridated' world. The fluoride in water and toothpaste is potentially harmful; the hydrogen fluoride in contaminated air far more so. Each year, tens of thousands of tons of hydrogen fluoride create an environmental hazard more threatening than global warming or depletion of the ozone layer; and hydrogen fluoride, which can be 1,000 times more harmful than sulphur dioxide, is often a key, but rarely mentioned component of 'acid rain'.

Few people living in the developed countries of the world can escape exposure to hydrogen fluoride (HF). Workers in more than 60 occupations are now breathing HF-contaminated air, and anyone living in the vicinity of the fluoride-polluting industries is also at risk.

The World Health Organization has estimated that many millions of people live in areas with air pollution problems severe enough to cause tens of thousands of premature deaths each year and leave many more chronically ill and disabled.

During this century three major air pollution disasters emphasized the link between contaminated air, disaster and death. These occurred in the Meuse Valley, Belgium, in 1930; Donora, Pennsylvania in 1948, and London in 1952. The worst began in London on Thursday, 4th December, and lasted three days. During this period, 4,000 people in London died from heart and lung disease. Hydrogen fluoride was the chief killer in all three disasters.

At incredibly low concentrations HF can induce subtle changes in enzyme activities, nerve action potentials and host defence - the immune system.

Hydrogen fluoride at a concentration of just 0.1 parts per billion in air can damage sensitive vegetation; at a concentration of 1 part per billion it can devastate vineyards and orchards. Of all air pollutants which affect farm animals, hydrogen fluoride has caused the most severe and widespread damage. Yet health authorities insist that low-level long-term exposure to HF cannot harm human health!

If there is scientifically acceptable evidence to support these claims about the hazards of HF, how on earth have authorities managed to deceive people for so long? Why do we hear so much about sulphur dioxide, nitrogen oxides and carbon monoxide, and so little about hydrogen fluoride?

Because most people have been 'brain-washed' into believing that 'fluoride' is good for them. After all, it's put into water and toothpaste to prevent tooth decay. If you can drink water containing 1 part per million fluoride, and use toothpaste containing 1,000 parts per million fluoride, then how could fluoride in air at a level of parts per billion be harmful?

In other words, health authorities pretend that fluoride in the air is the same as fluoride in drinking water and toothpaste. They even present their measurements of hydrogen fluoride in air as - fluoride. When describing water fluoridation, the same tactic is used ... sodium fluoride and fluosilicic acid are described as "natural," avoiding the fact that in areas with "natural" fluoridation, the compounds involved are not these toxic wastes of industry, but a much less toxic compound of fluoride and calcium.

In the 1930's scientists in Britain, Europe and the United States knew that low levels of HF were harmful. Furthermore, they had identified a visible symptom of chronic HF poisoning.

Children who grew up near industries with fluoride-pollution problems could develop 'mottled' teeth; so too could cattle and sheep in the vicinity. The relationship between HF air pollution and 'mottled' teeth was an obvious threat to the Captains of Industry. They might argue whether it was sulphur dioxide, nitrogen oxides or hydrogen fluoride that was responsible for damage to crops and livestock, but no other air pollutants caused mottled teeth.

In 1930 there were plenty of 'mottled' teeth amongst children in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, headquarters of the Aluminum Company of America, Alcoa. The head chemist of Alcoa, H.V. Churchill, was given the job of 'explaining' the 'mottled' teeth in a way that would deflect attention away from Alcoa's fluoride air pollution problems.

Tooth decay is caused by bacteria - single-celled organisms, which, like all cells - both enamel and vegetable - are extremely sensitive to fluoride which, above certain concentrations, is a potent poison.

The most common bacterium implicated in the cause of caries is Streptococcus mutans. Levels of fluoride above 20 parts per million are lethal to S. mutans; levels as low as 0.19 ppm fluoride can interfere with certain essential metabolic enzymes in the bacterium; and concentrations of fluoride between 4 and 20 ppm can cause S. mutans to - mutate.

In other words, fluoride is an anti-microbial agent of great potency.

The development of a cavity in a tooth proceeds in the following manner. S. mutans (or other cariogenic bacteria) must first gain attachment to the tooth surface. Once attached, and given a suitable food supply, the bacteria thrive and multiply, producing colonies known as dental plaque.

Within the plaque, millions of microbes are consuming carbohydrates and excreting dilute acids as waste products.

These acids begin to eat away - demineralize - the surface layers of the tooth enamel. As a result, the enamel is broken down into its component parts, which include, calcium, phosphate, carbonate and trace amounts of fluoride (which was incorporated into the enamel as it developed).

Gradually, the fluoride level in the plaque fluid builds up. When it reaches 0.19 ppm the metabolism of the bacteria slows down - less food is consumed and fewer acid wastes produced. As the level rises above 4 ppm fluoride, the 'mutation rate' of the bacteria increases dramatically. Finally, as the fluoride concentrations in the plaque rises to lethal levels, the bacteria die. And, there may even be some re-mineralization of the enamel.

Wonderful! A cavity has been prevented! But all this has taken place on the surface of the body, not inside it.

Of course fluoride is not the only element that can prevent decay topically. Any potentially toxic element which can become incorporated in tooth enamel, such as the bone-seeking elements - radium, uranium, cadmium, lead and strontium-90, will kill cariogenic bacteria as they are released from enamel as a consequence of the de-mineralizing effect of the microbes' acid wastes.

Trace amounts of fluoride are present in bone mineral - which is very similar to the mineral in tooth enamel. However, there is a crucial difference between bone and enamel. Once fully formed, tooth enamel is static - it doesn't undergo metabolic changes. Bone, on the other hand, is constantly being remodelled. This involves 'old' bone being resorbed and 'new' bone laid down. Cells called osteocytes and osteoclasts dissolve the 'old' bone and osteoblasts help form 'new' bone.

All bone contains some fluoride, and as old bone is dissolved it is released into the vicinity of the resorbing cells, and evolution has ensured that the bone cells can withstand very low levels of fluoride.

But, just as the cariogenic bacteria can be harmed by the excessive levels of fluoride, so too can bone cells and bone marrow cells - which include the progenitors of immune system cells.

The events described above explain the symptoms associated with both dental and skeletal fluorosis; unfortunately they also raise the spectre of bone cancer and leukemia.

As Dr. Frederick Exner noted: "If American Industry had to stop polluting our air, water, and our countryside with fluoride fumes and fall-out, and to dispose of its fluoride wastes without creating a public hazard, it would cost, not mere millions, but countless billions of dollars. and therein lies the explanation for the utterly relentless drive to fluoridate our water supplies by any means, fair or foul, and many other puzzling aspects of the drive to fluoridate."

Because of the dental profession's infatuation with fluoride, tens of millions of people around the world have 'mottled' teeth caused by fluoridated drinking water, fluoridated dental health products, or fluoride air pollution. The evidence is inescapable.

Although cosmetic dentistry can cover up the visible damage to teeth, it is costly and highly profitable for dentists. The dental profession's long-time promotion of fluoride has created a need for cosmetic dentistry ... yet for years, dentists argued that by pushing fluoride they would be putting themselves out of business!

Well, guess what ... the litigation has now begun.

And once a jury accepts that fluoride can harm developing teeth, the next obvious question will be: If fluoride can damage tooth cells, what other cells and tissues in the human body are being harmed?

The flood-gates will open. Over the next decade it is conceivable that in North America, Britain and Australia, at least fifteen million people will be seeking damages for 'mottled' teeth - from toothpaste manufacturers, dentists, and local authorities who permitted fluoridation. A lot of money will be involved; even at $10,000 per person, a pretty modest sum these days, we are talking about $150 BILLION.

Are you beginning to get the picture? The dental profession, federal and state health authorities, and certain important industries, CANNOT admit, after 50 years, that fluoride has been damaging human health; the consequences are unthinkable.

For those who like to drink cold water, this article is applicable to you.
It is nice to have a cup of cold drink after a meal. However, the cold water will solidify the oily stuff that you have just consumed. It will slow down the digestion. Once this "sludge" reacts with the acid, it will break down and be absorbed by the intestine faster than the solid food. It will line the intestine. Very soon, this will turn into fats and lead to cancer.
It is best to drink hot soup or warm water after a meal.
A serious note about heart attacks - You should know that not every heart attack symptom is going to be the left arm hurting. Be aware of intense pain in the jaw line.
You may never have the first chest pain during the course of a heart attack. Nausea and intense sweating are also common symptoms. 60% of people who have a heart attack while they are asleep do not wake up. Pain in the jaw can wake you from a sound sleep. Let's be careful and be aware. The more we know the better chance we could survive.

Dear all,

Baca, ketahui kemudian pertimbangkan hal ini...

1. Setiap orang mempunyai sel kanker di dalam tubuh. Sel-sel kanker
ini tidak terlihat dalam tes standard hingga mereka berkembang biak
menjadi bermilyar milyar. Ketika dokter mengatakan kepada pasien kanker
bahwa tidak ada lagi sel kanker di tubuh mereka setelah perawatan, itu
berarti bahwa tes yang dilakukan tidak mampu endeteksi sel kanker karena
sel kanker tersebut tidak sampai pada jumlah yang dapat diprediksi.

2. Kanker sel terjadi antara 6 sampai 10 kali di dalam hidup
manusia.

3. Ketika kekebalan tubuh manusia kuat, sel-sel kanker akan rusak
dan dicegah dari pembiakan dan pembentukan tumor.

4. Ketika seseorang mengidap kanker, diindikasikan orang tersebut
mempunyai beragam gangguan nutrisi. Hal ini bisa disebabkan oleh factor
genetik, lingkungan, makanan dan gaya hidup.

5. Untuk menanggulangi beragam gangguan nutrisi, mengubah diet dan
menambahkan suplemen akan menguatkan kekebalan imun.

6. Kemoterapi melibatkan sel kanker beracun yang tumbuh dengan cepat
dan juga merusak sel sehat yang tumbuh dengan cepat di sumsum tulang,
organ bagian dalam dan dapat menyebabkan kerusakan organ seperti hati,
ginjal, jantung, paru-paru, dsb.

7. Radiasi ketika menghancurkan sel kanker, juga membakar dan
merusak sel sehat, jaringan dan organ.

8. Perawatan awal dengan kemoterapi dan radiasi akan sering
mengurangi ukuran tumor. Akan tetapi penggunaan kemoterapi dan radiasi
yang berkepanjangan tidak menghasilkan kehancuran tumor.

9. Ketika tubuh telah banyak mempunyai racun yang terbakar akibat
kemoterapi dan radiasi, sistem imun yang dibinasakan karenanya akan
lemah dari berbagai macam infeksi dan komplikasi.

10. Kemoterapi dan radiasi bisa mengakibatkan sel kanker bermutasi dan
menjadi bersifat menentang serta sulit dihancurkan. Pembedahan juga
dapat mengakibatkan sel kanker menyebar ke bagian lain.

11. Sebuah cara yang efektif adalah membuat sel kanker lapar dengan cara
tidak memberinya makanan yang dapat menyebabkannya berkembang biak.

12. Protein hewani sulit untuk dicerna dan membutuhkan banyak enzim
pencernaan. Daging yang tidak dicerna secara sempurna, sisanya di dalam
isi perut menjadi antaran untuk membangun racun.

13. Dinding kanker dialasi oleh protein yang tangguh. Mempertahankan
diri dengan memakan sedikit daging dapat membebaskan enzim untuk melawan
dinding protein sel kanker dan membiarkan sel pembunuh dalam tubuh
menghancurkan sel kanker.

14. Beberapa suplemen membangun kekebalan imun (IP6, Flor-ssence,
Essiac, antioksidan, vitamin, mineral, EFA, dll) dan memungkinkan sel
pembunuh dalam tubuh menghancurkan sel kanker. Suplemen-suplemen lain
seperti vitamin E diketahui menyebabkan apoptosis, atau pemrograman
kematian sel, metode tubuh normal dari penempatan sel yang rusak, tidak
diinginkan atau tidak dibutuhkan.

15. Kanker adalah penyakit pikiran, tubuh dan jiwa. Semangat yang
proaktif dan positif akan membuat selamat. Kemarahan, tidak memaafkan
dan kepahitan menempatkan tubuh ke dalam keadaan penuh stress.
Belajarlah mempunyai semangat mencintai dan memaafkan. Belajarlah santai
dan menikmati hidup.

16. Sel kanker tidak dapat tumbuh dengan subur dalam lingkungan
beroksigen. Berolahraga setiap hari, dan bernapas dengan dalam membantu
mendapatkan oksigen lebih banyak. Terapi oksigen adalah cara lain untuk
menghancurkan sel kanker.


SEL KANKER HIDUP DENGAN:

a. Gula adalah umpan kanker. Dengan mengurangi gula, berarti juga
mengurangi suplai makanan penting bagi sel kanker. Pengganti gula
seperti NutraSweet, Equal, Spoonful, dll dibuat dengan aspartame dan itu
berbahaya. Pengganti alami yang lebih baik dapat berupa madu atau tetes
tebu tetapi dalam jumlah yang amat sedikit. Garam meja mempunyai
tambahan kimia untuk membuat warnanya putih. Alternatif yang lebih baik
adalah dengan garam laut.

b. Susu membuat tubuh memproduksi mucus, terutama di organ bagian
dalam. Kanker diumpan oleh mucus. Dengan mengurangi susu dan
menggantikan dengan susu kedelai tawar sel kanker akan kelaparan.

c. Sel kanker tumbuh dengan subur di lingkungan asam. Diet anti
daging adalah bersifat asam, yang terbaik adalah memakan ikan dan ayam
daripada daging sapi atau babi. Daging juga mengandung antibiotic ternak
yang menumbuhkan hormon dan parasit yang berbahaya, terutama bagi
penderita kanker.

d. Diet dengan 80% sayur dan buah segar, biji-bijian dan
kacang-kacangan membantu tubuh dalam lingkungan alkalin. 20%nya bisa
diperoleh dari makanan matang termasuk kacang. Sayur segar menyediakan
enzim hidup yang mudah diserap dalam 15 menit untuk memelihara dan
meningkatkan pertumbuhan sel sehat. Untuk memperoleh enzim hidup untuk
membangun sel sehat, cobalah minum jus sayur segar (semua sayuran
termasuk kacang2an) dan makan sayuran mentah 2 atau 3 kali sehari. Enzim
rusak pada temperature 104 derajat Farenheit atau 40 derajat Celcius.

e. Hindari kopi, teh, dan coklat yang mempunyai kafein tinggi. Teh
hijau adalah alternative terbaik yang mempunyai sel penumpas kanker.
Yang sangat baik juga meminum air bersih atau air yang telah disaring
untuk menghindari racun dan logam berat dalam air ledeng.

or perhaps I should say Liver!

Penemuan Terbaru Mengenai Kanker Hati, Jangan Tidur Larut Malam!!

Para dokter di National Taiwan Hospital baru-baru ini mengejutkan dunia kedokteran karena ditemukannya kasus seorang dokter muda berusia 37 tahun yang selama ini sangat mempercayai hasil pemeriksaan fungsi hati (SGOT, SGPT), tetapi ternyata saat menjelang Hari Raya Imlek diketahui positif menderita kanker hati sepanjang 10 cm!

Selama ini hampir semua orang sangat bergantung pada hasil indeks pemeriksaan fungsi hati (LiverFunctionIndex). Mereka menganggap bila pemeriksaan menunjukkan hasil index yang normal berarti semua OK.

Kesalahpahaman macam ini ternyata juga dilakukan oleh banyak dokter spesialis. Benar-benar mengejutkan, para dokter yang seharusnya memberikan pengetahuan yang benar pada masyarakat umum, ternyata memiliki pengetahuan yang tidak benar. Pencegahan kanker hati harus dilakukan dengan cara yang benar.

Tidak ada jalan lain kecuali mendeteksi dan mengobatinya sedini mungkin,demikian kata dokter Hsu Chin Chuan. Tetapi ironisnya, ternyata dokter yang menangani kanker hati juga bisa memiliki pandangan yang salah, bahkan menyesatkan masyarakat, inilah penyebab terbesar kenapa kanker hati sulit untuk disembuhkan.


Penyebab utama kerusakan hati adalah :

1. Tidur terlalu malam dan bangun terlalu siang adalah penyebab paling utama

2. Pola makan yang terlalu berlebihan.

3. Tidak makan pagi.

4. Terlalu banyak mengkonsumsi obat-obatan.

5. Terlalu banyak mengkonsumsi bahan pengawet, zat tambahan, zat pewarna, pemanis buatan.

6. Minyak goreng yang tidak sehat! Sedapat mungkin kurangi penggunaan minyak goreng saat menggoreng makanan hal ini juga berlaku meski menggunakan minyak goreng terbaik sekalipun seperti olive oil. Jangan mengkonsumsi makanan yang digoreng bila kita dalam kondisi penat, kecuali dalam kondisi tubuh yang fit.

7. Mengkonsumsi masakan mentah (sangat matang) juga menambah beban hati. Sayur mayur dimakan mentah atau dimasak matang 3/ 5 bagian. Sayur yang digoreng harus dimakan habis saat itu juga, jangan disimpan.


Kita harus melakukan pencegahan dengan tanpa mengeluarkan biaya tambahan. Cukup atur gaya hidup dan pola makanan sehari-hari. Perawatan dari pola makan dan kondisi waktu sangat diperlukan agar tubuh kita dapat melakukan penyerapan dan pembuangan zat-zat yang tidak bergunasesuai dengan jadwalnya,


Sebab:


@ Malam hari pk 9 - 11: adalah pembuangan zat- zat tidakberguna/beracun (de-toxin) dibagian sistem antibodi (kelenjar getah bening). Selama durasi waktu ini seharusnya dilalui dengan suasana tenang atau mendengarkan musik. Bila saat itu seorang ibu rumah tangga masih dalam kondisi yang tidak santai seperti misalnya mencuci piring atau mengawasi anak belajar, hal ini dapat berdampak negatif bagi kesehatan.

@ Malam hari pk 11 - dini Hari pk 1: saat proses de-toxin di bagian hati, harus berlangsung dalam kondisi tidur pulas.

@ Dini hari pk 1 - 3: proses de-toxin di bagian empedu, juga berlangsung dalam kondisi tidur.

@ Dini hari pk 3 - 5: de-toxin di bagian paru-paru. Sebab itu akan terjadi batuk yang hebat bagi penderita batuk selama durasi waktu ini. Karena proses pembersihan (de-toxin) telah mencapai saluran pernafasan, maka tak perlu minum obat batuk agar supaya tidak merintangi proses pembuangan kotoran.

@ Pagi pk 5 - 7: de-toxin di bagian usus besar, harus buang air di kamar kecil.

@ Pagi pk 7 - 9: waktu penyerapan gizi makanan bagi usus kecil, harus makan pagi. Bagi orang yang sakit sebaiknya makan lebih pagi yaitu sebelum pk 6:30. Makan pagi sebelum pk 7:30 sangat baik bagi mereka yang ingin menjaga kesehatannya. Bagi mereka yang tidak makan pagi harap merubah kebiasaannya ini, bahkan masih lebih baik terlambat makan pagi hingga pk9-10 daripada tidak makan sama sekali. Tidur terlalu malam dan bangun terlalu siang akan mengacaukan proses pembuangan zat-zat tidak berguna. Selain itu,dari tengah malam hingga pukul 4 dini hari adalah waktu bagi sumsum tulang belakang untuk memproduksi darah. Sebab itu, tidurlah yang nyenyak dan jangan begadang!!!!!!!
