Dietary Approaches

The use of a strict organic food, no animal protein, no sugar diet, is an integral part of our approach. We do permit fish. This is in order to push the acid/alkaline balance of the body away from an acid environment - which is to a large extent the rule in current western diets - towards an alkaline environment of PH7 or above. At this level enzymes in the body work best and cells from tumours tend to die off, as tumour cells grow best in an acid environment of PH6 or thereabouts. Tumour cells (which are anaerobic) do not use oxygen and tend to metabolize glucose, producing lactic acid.
