Probably the most significant cause of most systemic diseases over the past one hundred years is an acidic condition of the body. Most scientist who study this aspect of human health conclude that the Standard American Diet {SAD} is the key culprit in producing disease in that it is highly acidic, causing us to walk around inviting disorders to invade us. So the key to avoid, and cure many diseases is - diet!
The consensus among thoughtful scientists is that diseases such as cancer and arthritis cannot exist in an alkaline body. Avoiding tobacco, sodas, both diet and regular, recreational drugs, alcohol, and excess caffeine go a long way in helping the body remain alkaline.
ANYONE WITH CANCER MUST AVOID THESE FOODS!
SUGAR; Substitute Stevia, or Xylitol as sweeteners.
PROCESSED FOODS: The cause of most major illnesses.If food is not in its natural form, don't eat it! Processed foods have all the good nutrients removed.
ANIMAL PROTEIN: Fish, chicken, shellfish, eggs, beef, pork; all meats, are difficult to digest. This rule can be relaxed by those no longer afflicted with cancer.
DAIRY: Milk, ice cream, butter, and cheese. These are also hard to digest. Most people older than five years lack the lactose needed to digest dairy products and dairy products promote cancer!
NOTE
With respect to dairy: Cottage cheese, when mixed with flax seed oil, produces a chemical compound that is absolutely lethal to cancer cells. This combination has been and is being used extensively by alternative physicians in the treatment of cancer. The success rate has been astonishing. You can read more about it here.
GLUTEN: Bread, cereal, pasta. About 30% of adults are allergic to gluten. Gluten has a high glycemic index. This means it turns into glucose rapidly, and glucose feeds cancer cells, which are acidic and anaerobic in nature. Grains with gluten include: BARLEY, RYE, OATS, WHEAT, & SPELT.
SO WHAT'S LEFT?
What is left is raw, whole vegetables in the form of large salads. Dark, green, leafy vegetables,, broccoli, cauliflower, cucumbers, tomatoes, radishes, carrots, are a few of them. If you can't manage that many vegetables, get a juicer. Grind yourself up a cocktai (it will look like something the dog threw up) and slug it down. Add a drop of Lea & Perrins to make it more palatable. Don't strain it to retain the fiber. This way you get all the nutrients, including very vital and active electrons needed in combating cancer.
Eat sprouted breads, preservative free breads (bake your own), cereals made with milletquinoa, amaranth, buckwheat. These grains have no gluten.
Use almondmilk on your cereal. Soy is highly controversial and not recommended. Be safe, not sorry!
Limit fruit to one piece a day: apple, banana, grapes. Fruit juice blasts the pancreas with fruit sugar and sugar in any form is to be avoided by anyone with cancer.
SUPPLEMENTS ARE ADVISABLE
Not withstanding all good intentions, it is very difficult to get a completely balanced diet containing all the nutrients we need minus any of the toxins which surround us.
Modern farming methods make it virtually impossible to get the total nutrition we need from the food we eat alone. Proper supplementation is vital.
Anyone with cancer, or seeking to avoid it, needs to consider carefully, not only food consumption, but also appropriate supplementation.
The purest, most thoughtfully formulated, and incidentally, most effective supplements LeQuadrillage has ever encounteredcan be reviewed here.

SODIUM BICARBONATE (Baking Soda)
GOT HEARTBURN? TAKE IT, IT'S CHEAP AND EFFECTIVE. A teaspoon of baking soda in a glass of water will give you relief. without all the negatives associated with antacids. Besides that, heartburn isn't caused by too much stomach acid. Heartburn is caused by too little! We need stomach acid! Lots of it! (The subject of an article that will appear on this site soon.)
Besides being a great heartburn remedy, Sodium Bicarbonate is a medical workhorse. It's a staple in every emergency room where it has an endless array of uses.
Sodium Bicarbonate can be used intravenously, orally, can be vaporized in a nebulizer, used in douches and enemas, used transdermaly in your bathtub water, and by making a lotion or paste from dissolving it in just enough water to put all the powder into solution. Sodium Bicarbonate is the universal mainstream treatment of acidosis, and is used by oncologists to neutralize the heavy acid nature of their dangerous chemo agents. In fact, many alternative physicians question the use of chemo drugs at all, suggesting that it is the sodium bicarbonate that is actually defeating the cancer.
KEEPING YOUR BODY ALKALINIZED
ONE HALF TEASPOON SODIUM BICARBONATE IN A GLASS OF WATER EVERY DAY WILL GO A LONG WAY TOWARD AVOIDING CANCER
Today, the FDA prohibits any manufacturer of non pharmaceuticals to make any medical claims about its products. Yet as far back as 1924, the Arm & Hammer Company had made such claims, backing them up with solid supportive evidence.
In 1918 and 1919, during the flu epidemic, it was noted by Dr Volney S. Cheney, that "rarely anyone who had been thoroughly alkalinized with bicarbonate of soda, contracted the disease, and those who did contract it, if alkalinized early, would invariably have mild attacks."
There is a question today about the aluminum content of many brands of Baking Soda. At LeQuadrillage we know only that Bob's Red Mill Baking Soda does not contain aluminum. We're unable to vouch for any of the others.
TOTALLY DECADENT AND UNHEALTHFUL
{Don't eat this very often)
FETTUCINNE ALFREDO
Get 2 nine ounce packages of Fettucinne pasta, a stick of butter cut into small pIeces, and half a pound of grated parmesan cheese. (You've got it right, that's what we said.)
Warm a large serving bowl in a 200 degree oven while you bring a large saucepan of salted water to boiling, then add the pasta and cook according to package directions.
When the pasta is finished, drain it, but reserve 3/4 cup of the cooking water.
Get the heated bowl out of the oven, toss in the butter and follow it with the pasta. Toss it. You can use two wooden spoons, for best results. Tongs will work too.
A little at a time, add the cheese, alternating with the reserved cooking water until it's all incorporated and the cheese is melted. You can grate on some black pepper; now or after serving. Oh, I almost forgot. You should be able to serve six with this recipe Depends on who is at the table.
We never said to abandon all of life's little pleasures. Unless you have an illness that precludes indulging yourself, it's ok to fall off the wagon once in a while. Just don't go making a regular habit of eating stuff like this.
STROKE AND THE WAY YOU COOK YOUR FISH Reducing Your Stroke Risk Can Be As Simple As
Controlling The Way You Cook Your Fish
Pamela T Robinette maintains a personal wellness blog dedicated to suggesting more healthful dietary habits by following the Mediterranean Style Diet. She has been good enough to send us this article along with one of her delicious fish recipes. Visit her at Healthy Mediterranean Recipes for more. Do it! Her recipes are outstanding.
Those of us who think about it generally agree that eating fish rich in omega-3 fatty acids may be associated with a reduced risk of stroke. Now a new paper suggests that it's not simply how much fish you consume, but more importantly, how it is prepared.
Dr Fadi Nahab of Emory University led a team that studied the role of race and geography in the incidence of stroke. The study was concentrated in the "stroke belt" of the southeastern part of the United States, the "deep south." where the stroke death rates are higher than in the remaining areas of the country.
For the study, 21,000 people answered a telephone survey about their fish consumption. According to the answers returned, African-Americans routinely consumed more fish than whites, and were more than three times as likely as whites to eat their fish fried at least twice weekly. The study also found that fried fish consumption was 30% higher inside the stroke belt compared to the rest of the country.
According to Dr Nahab, it appears that consuming fried fish may lower health benefits in two ways. First, lean fish, for instance cod or haddock are more likely to be eaten fried than are the omega-3 rich salmon, mackerel, or herring. Second, frying fish reduces natural omega-3 fatty acids and replaces them with unhealthful cooking oils. The report concludes that the study leans heavily toward the assumption that consuming fried fish on a regular basis could well lead to a higher incidence of stroke.
These food surveys of course were simply a snapshot. More study is needed in this regard. Dietary changes over time were not considered and could be crucial, so Dr Nahab's conclusions stopped short of contending that those who eat fried fish are generally likely to have strokes.
MEDITERRANEAN FISH FILETS
This recipe makes six servings, takes ten minutes to prep and twenty minutes to cook. Each serving has 201 calories, 5 grams of carbs, 37 mg cholesterol, 477 mg sodium, one gram of fiber, and 25 grams of protein. By the way, Pamela calls this her "Top Secret Fish Recipe." Remember that you got it here, at LeQuadrillage.
YOU WILL NEED:
1-1/2 POUNDS WHITE FISH FILLETS: Halibut, Striped Bass, or Orange Roughy
1/2 CUP FINELY CHOPPED ONION
1 TBSP EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL
ONE 14 OZ CAN DICED TOMATOES; Drain them
1/2 CUP PITTED KALAMATA, GREEN OR BLACK OLIVES: Cut through centers lengthwise
2 TBLSP WHITE WINE
1 TSP BASIL LEAVES
1/2 TSP GARLIC POWDER
1/4 TSP THYME LEAVES
Preheat the oven to 375º. Coat a baking dish with non stick cooking spray. (LeQuadrillage interjection - use butter, lard, or canola oil, in that order. Avoid the carcinogenic chemicals in cooking spray.) Place the fish in a single layer in the baking dish and gently salt and pepper it. Bake it for 12 minutes, unless the fish is over one inch thick. Then you can increase the cooking time to 15 minutes.
While the fish is cooking, heat the oil in a medium saucepan on medium heat, drop in the onion and cook, stirring frequently for about five minutes, until the onion is softened. Toss in the tomatoes, olives, wine, basil, garlic, and thyme. Simmer this uncovered for three minutes.
Take the fish out of the oven, spoon the sauce over it, put it back into the oven and bake five minutes longer until the fish flakes easily, using a fork. Serve immediately. Enjoy!!
