    My name is ronald dishinger my web is www.biochemimbal-behavior.com I am not a quack so please read this email carefully since it may change a delusion so many in the western world have had for so long and people suffer as a result. I passed ego many years ago and I am only the messenger of this knowledge for others. It is not my knowledge . Your sister who died many years ago need not have died and others with massive disease of breast cancer need not go through all their hell either. It is a systemic cellular problem that happens to show up in the breast. Simply removing the breast is like fixing a water pipe in the kitchen of your house when the problems was a broken water pipe from the road to your house. Survival rates are only because something systemic has changed in that organism and in fact even biopsies are very damaging. No it is not a magic bullet but a paradigm shift to knowledge so many wish to destroy rather than to accept. Because of not wishing ego I stopped counting doctors from around the world who called me, 178 as of four years ago. This was about schizophrenias and bi-polar disease states. However any pain and suffering is what I am trying to help. So here are a couple of past emails I have sent others in the same situation you are in with lack of knowledge and awareness. No I do not get into silly games of awareness. We all have different levels- no one is better than another, just different including a straving child or street schizophrenic. So here are some of the articles:My name is Ronald Dishinger 270 684 9233 My web is www.biochemimbal-behavior.com I am not some quack so please do not dismaiss this email to you. Epigentics:The new kid on the block is egigentics which is the turning "on or off "of certain genes in the human being for good health. Egigentics envolves what we eat, breathe,our behavior, and even think to alter a gene to turn "on or off" for good health.All gene are expressed by a complicated process of many thousands of enzymes or catalysts(chemical reactions) that allow a gene to be expressed or not expressed for good health. A enzyme can be made up of many thousands of atoms in the the many molecules and because of our biochemical individuality we all have different requirements for these enzymes to take place to alter a gene. You may need this or that and I need this or that. However with biochemical individuality we all have similar functions but not the same. For example to get rid of a flu virus one person many need 20,000 mg of vitamin C to kill the virus and another person may need 50,000mg for that same virus. Yes it may be the number of virus cells that have duplicated and where it has travveld in the body but even if we could calculate the number of cells of each person for those virus cells each person would respond differently to the vitamin C for recovery. This synergenism is what we are all about as humans. We are indeed similar but so different.Genes also have time line and evolutionary dependence. First the time line: we may not have a disease for many yeasr and then all of sudden have this disease. We may have have had this disease since birth or even as a fetus. We may also have the disease as something from many generations ago that our ancestors did. Time line illness means that a gene may be in the off position when in good health and then at a certain non- determened time a illness appears such as schizophrenias at age 18 years. It is rather rare to have childhood schizophrenia even though it does happen- the same with cancer. Why does it happenen in the first place. The total synergy of the entire organsim has changes with even enzymes doing their proper job but the gene switch has been altered. Many times we may think it is the gene switch in the wrong positon of "on or off" when in fact it is a ezymematic fault. Then we come to evolutionary genes postions. Then it really gets c

    My mom had breast cancer (stage 4), 15 years ago. She chose to change her diet from partial vegeterian to full organic diet, drank 3 liters of distilled water everyday, detoxed and increased her immiune system by consuming live probiotics and drinking fresh juice. She is 66, did not have a breast removed , neither did she go through the full procedure of chemotherapy (stopped after 2 treatments). YES..... our diet is the source of all ailments and is the CURE of it too, apart from a very strong mind.

    Good post Lillie to remind us to watch our diets and make sure we are hitting the fruits and veggies really hard. I agree we should do everything we can to help ourselves every way we can. We don't have total control. What I don't want is anyone blaming themselves if their cancer comes back or they get distant mets. This disease comes in many flavors - some more agressive than others. We can control some aspects and give ourselves the best fighting chance we can. For others, bad luck and an agressive pathology can lower chances of a good outcome. The diet is one thing we can control ourselves and should.

    12 years ago I was diagnosed with invasive stage 111 breast cancer that had spread massively from my breast to my lymph system, and was given only 6 months to live. I’m happy to say that today here I am alive and well to tell the story and inspire you that we really can get over anything in life and come out wiser, stronger human beings. I approached the disease with a holistic view, mind, body and spirt. I eat vegan raw food with nutritious sprouts and green drinks every day. no sugar at all, and put together a healing plan for my emotional, and mental well being too, besides taking various herbs, and suppliments. I cut out any processed food and sugar. Besides any physical treatment that I chose for my body, I had to take a good look at my life, and let go of any pain or anger that I was carrying in my breast from the past, for it was clear to me that holding on to past trauma and letting it fester inside of me had helped to lower my immune system, and create fertile ground for the cancer to grow. it was a life changing journey and now I know that we really can turn the compost in to gold. There are treasures in there as strange as that seems, and its up to each one of us to find it. I did not war on cancer, quite the opposite I made peace with the situation and with all that had happened in my life until then. I forgave anyone who I perceived as having hurt me in my past, and let it go. I had to take responsibility for my life, not leave it up to anyone else to make the decisions for me, as this was about my life no one else’s. The doctors and health specialists were there to give me the information. It was up to me to make the choices. I promised that when I would overcome the prognosis, I would write a book inspiring people who are facing life’s challenges. ‘6 Months to Live 10 Years Later: An Extraordinary Healing Journey and Guide to Well Being ” was the outcome of that promise, published in December 2007. And the Champ Muhammad Ali graciously wrote the Foreword to my book. You can see a non-professional utube of Curtis Jewell reading the foreword that Muhammad wrote, and myself reading a chapter from my book in California on http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GeJk20r5MlM The the utube details are provided because I know how important it was for me when I was sick to actually visually see someone well over cancer and know that it can be done. So here I am for you ladies out there. I hope this inspires you to know that we really can get over anything in life and come out wiser deeper human beings. It is so important not to become a 'victim' to the disease emotionally, as that only weakens you more. Rather get help and find ways to take back your power and heal all that has happened. Take time out to re-evaluate your life. This is a wake up call from above, so take the opportunity and use your inner strength. You really can do it! with love Suzanna

    Healing from Cancer. 12 years ago I was diagnosed with invasive stage 111 breast cancer that had spread massively from my breast to my lymph system, and was given only 6 months to live. I’m happy to say that today here I am alive and well to tell the story and inspire you that we really can get over anything in life and come out wiser, stronger human beings. Part of my healing plan was to eat large amounts of vegetables and sprouts with cancer inhibiting qualities. To top that up ever morning I drank the juice of sprouted wheat which had grown for 6 days and then looked like grass, which I juiced. you can get it to day in health stores. Wheatgrass juice is 70% chlorophyll. An ounce of Wheatgrass is equivalent to two and a half pounds of vegetables. Wheatgrass has 23 times the minerals and vitamins of vegetables. Chlorophyll improves blood sugar problems, helps purify the liver and enhance the capillaries. Chlorophyll is anti-bacterial and can be used inside and outside the body as a healer. It only takes ten minutes to digest Wheatgrass juice, which helps remove heavy meals. Wheatgrass has been found to have over 100 elements needed by man and woman. If grown in organic soil, it absorbs 92 of the known 102 minerals from the soil. Liquid chlorophyll gets into the tissues, to refines and regenerates them. So as you can see its a real healer. Wheatgrass juice is high in enzymes and acts as a detergent in the body, which helps deodorize. Wheatgrass juice contains calcium, phosphorous, magnesium, sodium and potassium. . I changed my diet radically, so that my body could have a great defence against the disease. I felt the difference using the vegetables, sprouts, raw living foods, and cut out sugar entirely. And after all here I am today. You can see a non-professional utube of myself reading a chapter from my book in California on http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GeJk20r5MlM I send you the utube details because I know how important it was for me when I was sick to see someone today well over cancer. To see with my own eyes that it can be done. I hope this inspires you to know that we really can get over anything in life and come out wiser deeper human beings. with love Suzanna
