Dear Piorello,
Most people think that cancer is an epidemic, it’s out of control and there’s nothing we can do.
But the truth is that although cancer is more likely than ever, it’s also more treatable than ever. We’re making a lot of progress and many cancers are no longer a death sentence.
What gives me even more hope is that although cancer incidence has gone up, it illustrates cancer’s fatal flaw. Cancer is a product of how far we’ve strayed from our natural environment.
That truth reveals an even bigger truth: It means we already have the cure. But these cures aren’t chemotherapy drugs. They’re natural compounds that kill off cancer cells.
Let me give you an example. I just finished writing my latest book Healing Herbs from Paradise. Almost every plant and herb I’ve found in Bali has some cancer-killing property.
Take guavas. They’re delicious, and they were in season, so I ate one every morning the last time I was in Bali. The fruit is rich in fiber, vitamins A and C, folic acid, potassium, copper and manganese. Those alone are enough of a benefit, because they power up your immune system.
However, it’s the leaves that hold the real surprise. They’re anti-cancer.
Guava extracts suppress tumor growth, and in animal studies can even suppress leukemia.
Guava is especially good for men because it can interrupt the pathways that cause prostate cells to become cancerous. Plus, it can cause already cancerous cells to die leaving healthy cells alone.1
Scientists are studying 60 compounds from guava for their possible anti-cancer effects. One of the compounds that could be a big reason for guava’s anticancer power is that the leaves are a rich source of a little-known flavonoid called morin.
Research shows morin can block the growth of tumor cells,2 and kill off colon3 and breast cancer cells.4
Guava leaves also contain potent antioxidant power, which helps prevent cancer in the first place.5
That’s something valuable, and real. You can use weapons from our natural environment to fight the diseases cause by moving so far from our natural environment.
You may have to search a bit for guava leaves because they’re not as plentiful as the fruit. You can find sellers on places like Alibaba.com or Localharvest.org. You’re more likely to find see fresh leaves at a Mexican specialty store. But there are some health food stores that carry dried leaves.
That’s okay by me. Dried leaves make more potent teas and decoctions anyway. Fresh leaves contain more water so you need to almost double the amount to dried leaf infusions.
To make a guava leaf tea here’s what my herbalist friend Ni Wayan Lelir recommends:
Step 1: Take 1 cup water and 1-oz of dried guava leaf.
Step 2: Place the water into a stainless steel or enamel pot; do not use aluminum.
Step 3: Cut or crush the herb or root and add it to the water in the pot.
Step 4: Turn on the heat to medium. Simmer your decoction with the lid off until the volume of water is reduced by one-quarter (so, three-quarters of a pint remains).
Step 5: Cool and strain. Store in the fridge for no more than 72 hours.
Then take in divided doses according to use. Swish three times a day.
Guava leaves are just one of the little-known ways you can guard your body against the onslaught of cancer from the modern world. Problem is, they’re natural, so no one has reported on them yet. You won’t hear a peep about this from mainstream medicine because these natural cancer treatments make sense, but make no profit.
Some are even very common natural compounds that destroy cancer efficiently, yet unlike chemotherapy, don’t hurt any healthy cells.
I’ve written to you about some of these anti-cancer solutions. But my colleagues at The Institute for Natural Healing has put together a very comprehensive report on the subject of natural cancer cures that I think you’ll want to have.
It’s very informative. First it details some common – and dangerous – myths about cancer. Then it goes on to reveal several effective ways to fight or prevent cancer by addressing the causes, not just the symptoms.
It’s called Extreme Healing: Seven Weapons to Wipe Out Cancer – Naturally. This guide gives you simple ways to reduce your risk of getting cancer, a list of seven breakthrough, natural treatments that allow your body to fight cancer at its source. And you’ll find out how to simply incorporate these methods into your life. It’s easier than you think. Click here to find out how to get a FREE copy.
