A Woman Shares Her Strategy For Fighting Breast Cancer

2012-06-24T18:53:00.001-04:00

Vicky Stewart

Vicky Sewart, 44, was worried about possible side-effects of the medicine and launched herself into a health regime of exercise and specially chosen foods, including turmeric, which she claims 'makes cancer cells commit suicide'

After undergoing chemotherapy, radiotherapy and surgery, Miss Sewart, said her diet was a vital part of her recovery from the disease......Read more

'When I told the doctors I didn't want to take it, they just advised me to keep oestrogen out of my body, which is basically what the drug does.'

Miss Sewart said: 'The doctors absolutely will not say that the diet is going to do anything to help the cancer in any way, other than to say a healthy diet is going to help in the fight against any disease.

'This was four years ago and I think attitudes are changing a bit now so that these ideas are running alongside the more usual treatments.

'I believe absolutely enormously that my diet has assisted my recovery.' Explaining her decision not to take Tamoxifen, she said: 'It was the worry of the drugs and the side effects, I didn't want to have to worry about it, I wanted to be free.'

The jewellery designer and gallery owner started out her health regime with a mostly organic vegan diet, cutting out all dairy products, adding plenty of 'super-foods', and taking moderate exercise.

She said: 'Fresh fruit, vegetables and juices are great, and frozen berries are fantastic as a super food.

'Turmeric kind of makes cancer cells commit suicide and ginger and garlic are great to cook with.'

The national research study is looking at how lifestyle can help prevent the recurrence of breast cancer after surgery.

The largest of its kind in the world, it involves 56 hospitals around the UK and 3,400 patients who have had the disease.

For the past four years, Miss Sewart has provided blood and urine samples and filled in regular questionnaires about her well-being, diet and lifestyle as part of the national research.

The full results of the study will be published next year.

Are Nigerians Selling Their Kidneys for Money?

2012-06-21T13:16:00.001-04:00

Nigerians, abroad have resulted in selling their organs, especially their kidneys, to some parts of Asia. Who is to be blamed for this? The global economic crisis or the Nigerian economy.

These Nigerians who live abroad, having difficulty in making ends meet, are actively seeking markets to sell their kidneys online and have been making journeys to countries in Asia, – Malaysia and India particularly, to sell usually just one of their two kidneys for over $30,000

Vital blood filtering and red blood cell (RBC) generating organ, have become a lucrative business which pays from $30-$60,000.

It was discovered by researchers that donors of these kidneys, have an online net work with agents, vendors and hunters who they eventually sell their organs through. Read more after the cut

According to research done, these 'experts', evacuate the organs and ice-box them to the eager transplant centers, thriving with Asians, Middle Easterner’s and Europeans on the waiting list, hoping for that fresh, cheap paupers kidney.

Sellers pay these donors as little as $5,000 after undergoing such operations which leave some dead afterwards, a source revealed.
