Cancer Fighting Vegetables and Fruits (Part Two)


Try eating some of these cancer fighting vegetables and fruits to prevent cancer and live a healthier diet.


Naturalist would agree that the world today is more artificial, processed, automated, computerize the ever before. The same can be said about our food and the overly convenient fast food that we love so much. Science is just beginning to understand that when the human body is not in balance with it’s local environment and ingesting the wrong kinds of food that cancer can occur more easily. Evidence links eating a diet of vegetables and fruit which are loaded with anti-toxins and anti-inflammatory properties are beneficial in preventing cancer. Here is a list of must-have cancer fighting vegetables and fruits you need to have in your house for everyday cooking and everyday living.

Citrus

Citrus includes lemons, limes, oranges, and grapefruits are a rich source of potassium, vitamin C, and anti-toxins. Citrus fruits such as these also reduce inflammation and contain citric acids which prevent fermentation of cells in effect hindering cancerous growths. Lemons have citrin that help blood flow and reduce the risk of developing cancerous digestive disorders to the stomach, mouth, and esophagus. The U.S. Department of Agriculture has discovered in their studies that grapefruit juice and other citrus greatly inhibit the cancer-causing substance known as bioflavonoids that form into carcinogens within the body promoting the development of tumors.

Broccoli and Cauliflower


Broccoli and Cauliflower are part of the plant family Brassicaceae. The Brassicaceae also includes kale, sprouts, collard greens, cabbage, and brussels. Much has been said about broccoli’s fighting power against cancer because of containing minerals like sulfur and calcium. Broccoli contains a powerful anti-cancer enzyme called sulfurophane, contains lutein, a carotenoid cancer inhibitor, and calcium which reduces the acidity in the body preventing cancerous growths. Broccoli has been found to reduce or inhibit the growth of colon and lung cancer.

Flax Seed
 

Flax Seed is a great source of lignans, omega-3 fatty acid, high in fiber, and contains alpha linolenic acid (ALA). Flax Seed has the highest amount of lignans that you find in other plants such as soybean, broccoli, and sesame seed. Lignans is well-known for preventing and lowering the risk of breast cancer, lung cancer, bone cancer, skin cancer, colon cancer, and pancreatic cancer. Flax Seed is an anti-inflammatory, full of antitoxins and key phytochemicals that prevent the growth of tumors. Flax Seed is also very good at lowering cholesterol, the symptoms of menopause, constipation, diabetes, and heart disease. Flax Seed is best consumed as flaxseed oil or grind down as in a coffee grinder for better absorption within the body, sprinkled on salads and pasta dishes, and mixed into bread dough is common, mixed in drinks, and mixed in morning hot cereal such as oatmeal is quite good too.

Tomato

Tomato is a fruit, part of the nightshade family or red family, and is agriculturally known as Solanum lycopersicum. Originally cultivated in South America where the Spanish conquistadors discovered the tomato in Mexico and Peru, and brought the tomato to Europe and other parts of the world due to popularity of taste. Tomatoes contain the phytochemical called lycopene which has substantial evidence that protects and reduces the risk of prostate cancer. More recent research has linked that tomatoes could also decrease the development of the endometrial, lung, and breast cancer cells. Tomatoes can be eaten raw or cooked and for the best quality of beneficial absorption use tomato paste, tomato juice, and tomato sauce to fully enjoy this powerful antitoxin.

Peppers


Peppers are a fruit and part of the Capsicum family. Peppers are a remarkable plant containing potassium, fiber, folate, vitamin B6, lycopene, and beta carotene. A green bell pepper can have two times the amount of vitamin C as an orange and even the yellow and red peppers contain 3 to 4 times the amount of vitamin C found in oranges. The benefits of eating peppers are they help reduce cholesterol levels in the body reducing the risk of stroke and heart attacks.


Peppers help to lose weight by speeding up the body’s metabolic rate and curves desire for sugary foods. Peppers have natural anti-inflammatory properties that help relieve the pain of diabetic neuropathy, psoriasis, and arthritis. Peppers can reduce stomach ulcers by killing bacteria in the digestive tract and inhibit the growth of cancerous cells by the process of cellular suicide, and preventing the spread of prostate cancer. If you crave more hotter peppers such a spicy chilies and jalapenos these two peppers also contained a great amount of antitoxins and cancer preventing properties.

Berries

Berries are small fleshy, edible brightly colored fruit that contain a good source of vitamin C and fiber. Most berries have a high content of vitamin C and are well known as a prevention of certain cancers including breast, lung, bladder, esophagus, and skin. Berries have ellagic acid and are loaded with anti-toxins that effectively obstruct specific carcinogens that promote cancer growth. Blueberries and raspberries have phenolic compounds known as anthocyanosides that hinder growth of many cancers such as leukemia, colon, and lung. Strawberries contain an assortment of phytochemicals, flavonoids, that are potent cancer killing agents and help prevent the spread of cancerous growths.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture newly added guidelines clearly state that all Americans should eat five to nine servings of fruits and vegetables daily. This is a great recommendation and should be broadcast in all forms of information outlets as much as fast food commercials inundate us daily. The alarming rate of obesity and cancer stricken patients is on the rise. After research and study on this author’s part it has become clear that many on diets seeking weight loss are ineffective on an already malnourished body. To paraphrase a favorite author of mine, Edgar Cayce, “we should focus more on quality, not just quantity, of food” and diets rich in fiber with plenty of fruits and vegetables are ideal prevention of most cancers.

In today’s world of modern technology and fast food people are forgetting to eat their vegetables. The best way to maintain a healthy diet is to be on a natural one. Everyone has heard an apple a day keeps the doctor away and that is essentially true. Recent studies and research has just started to catch up to the old notion that clearly shows evidence that links eating a diet of vegetables and fruit is beneficial in preventing cancer and are loaded with antitoxins. Here is a list of must-have cancer fighting vegetables and fruits you need to have in your house for everyday cooking and everyday living.

Garlic and Onions


Garlic and onions are part of the Allium vegetable family which includes scallions, and chives. The Alluim vegetables contain cancer fighting compounds such as organosulfur, quartering, and allixin. Research has shown that these compounds in garlic can stop and slow down the growth of tumors in the bladder, stomach, colon, and prostate.

Ginger


Ginger is a unique and clever fighter of cancer cells. Ginger has been known for the treatment of nausea and has inflammatory properties. Ginger works cleverly by autophagic, causing cell death, along with apoptosis to cancer cells. Ginger also kills bacteria, inflammation, and fights tumors.

Cabbage


Cabbage has phytochemicals such as (AITC) allyl-isothicyanate that fight disease and are good for reducing and preventing breast cancer cells. The chemical AITC can be found in horseradish, wasabi, cabbage, mustard, and sprouts.

Carrots


Carrots are very popular since they have a great source of beta carotene, vitamin A, which is good for improving eyesight, and carrots contains vitamins B1, B2, B6, K and folic acid. Carrots are loaded with antioxidants and help reduced the risk of cancer developing within the body.

Celery


Celery can reduce blood pressure, it purifies, and alkalinizes the blood, and is a good source of sodium, iron, calcium, potassium, B-complex, and magnesium. Celery helps with liver and kidney function, adds in digestion, and inhibits cancer growing cells.

Cilantro

Cilantro contains an antibacterial properties that is well known to prevent indigestion and widely used as a digestive aid for thousands of years. Cilantro is an anti-inflammatory and helps in fighting skin cancer, contains antioxidants like caffeic acid and chlorogenic acid. Cilantro is a germ fighter, helps with bloating and weight loss, helps the heart by reducing bad cholesterol.

Parsley


Parsley is an ancient herb dating back over 2000 years and is loaded with iron, potassium, calcium, Vitamin A, and contains more vitamin C than an orange.

The Mystery of Human Evolution (Part Two)

 
There is a growing mystery concerning human history and human evolution. There seems to be far more ancient cultures that existed before the Egyptian culture over 5000 years ago than previously thought in mainstream science.



But the technology and the skill in this short amount of time of human history doesn’t make sense to some in the scientific community who say there are artifacts and anomalies that are so advanced that we today in the modern world of the 21st century AD can’t reproduce. Ancient cultures from all over the world seem to have a connection with building huge monolithic structures, pyramids, and temples. Stonehenge has been discovered to be older than 8000 BC and that too is an anomaly.


The mystery deepens when you discover ancient cities like Machu Picchu build around 1400 AD nearly 8,000 feet above sea level and constructed of massive stone blocks. There is no conventional means of reproducing the precision construction of stone slabs that not only line up with the equinoxes, but weigh tons, and to transport them up the mountain from a quarry below is still impossible today.


Another ancient city is Tiahuanaco in Bolivia that has incredibly high-engineered structures and temples. The monolithic structures at Tiahuanaco are an eerie reminder that has scientists baffled by its almost high-tech construction as well as having carved images of animals thought to have lived over 12,000 years ago. Tiahuanaco could be one of the oldest cities ever constructed and no one knows who built it.


Here is a time-line: A brief list of ancient people and their civilization as scientists believe them to be:



1. British Empire, 1700 AD



2. French Colonial Empire, 1600s AD



3. Aztec, 1400 AD/Spanish Empire



4. Inca, 1200 AD/Mongol Empire



5. Toltec, 900 AD



6. Mayan, 250 AD



7. Persian Empire, 550 BC



8. Roman Empire, 700 BC



9. Olmec, 1400 BC



10. Shang Dynasty, 1700 BC



11. Greeks, 2000 BC



12. Bronze Age, 3000 BC



13. Sumerians, settle near Caspian Sea, 4,000 BC



14. Egyptian, 5000 BC



15. Neolithic Era (Stone Age) 8,000 BC



16. Cro-Magnon, 35,000 BC


The Bible speaks of human creation only a few thousand years ago and the Mesopotamians date human culture starting back at 5,000 BC. But archeological discoveries and recent studies have proven that a few million years ago ape-like humans started evolving and developing culture, and some even claim that early civilizations started forming as far back in history beyond 8,000 years ago. But which is the true history?


The Bible states that all of creation merely happened 6000 years ago and that all other life found within the Earth never existed. The fossilized remains of ancient life such as dinosaurs and of ancient people are reminders that life of every kind and complexity is constantly evolving on the Earth. Some in the scientific community believe that human culture has actually existed far older than the Bible and even older than paleontologists agree on. The debate rages on as new discoveries in ancient hieroglyphics and stony temples and massive monolithic structures present historical problem for historians.

Another interpretation is a miscalculation of both timelines presented by the Bible and scientist today. Creating the Earth in six days could actually be a metaphor for creation happening over tens of thousands of years. In geological time the Earth itself is a few million years old and the human race seems to have only been here a few thousand years ago as told in the Bible, but as odd anomalies and ancient artifacts keep getting discovered, the real timeline in human history will have to be rewritten.

The Mystery of Human Evolution (Part One)


There are some discrepancies in the Christian Bible timeline versus the evolution timeline by the scientific community. This is a constant debate in the creation-evolution controversy which disagrees on when the universe, the Earth, and human beings were created.



The birth of Homo sapiens

The book of Genesis in the Bible claims life started around 4000 BC. Evolutionists disagree and through natural observation have stated that evidence proves that the Earth is far older than is mentioned in the Bible and that human life actually began millions of years ago. The origin and evolution of Homo sapiens has divided the scientific and religious worlds completely. The standard scientific belief is that early human evolution began in Africa 2.4 million years ago and that Homo sapiens started developing roughly around 100,000 years ago.


Science has determined the Earth was formed 4.5 billion years ago. All life on the Earth has been evolving into more complex organisms, from of single cell organisms 3.8 billion years ago, 570 million years ago of arthropods, 360 million years ago of amphibians, 300 million years ago of reptiles, 200 million years ago of mammals, 65 million years ago the dinosaurs go extinct, 2.5 million years ago the early evolution of the Homo genus appears, about 150,000 years ago a common ancestor of human DNA was discovered, and 25,000 years ago the Neanderthals suddenly died out. Roughly about 12,000 years ago Homo sapiens became the leading and dominant life form on the Earth.


But creationists and religious believers dispute any kind of theories from evolutionary biologists, geologists, paleontologist, and scientists claiming them to be manipulated by Darwinism. For the conservative religious community believes in the human history timeline as told within the Bible. But there is room for continued debate with regards to literal Bible timeline versus the scientific historic timeline. Here is a historic timeline of key events that happened in the span of about 6000 years and Bible history time:




1. About 4000 BC, the birth of Adam, the first man ever created was born.



2. About 3000 BC, the birth of the Methuselah, the son of Enoch.



3. About in the year 2348 BC, begins the biblical flood as told in the book of Genesis.



4. Between 2000 BC, the birth of Abraham



5. 1300 BC, Exodus begins.



6. About 1000 BC, King Solomon rules.



7. About 600 BC, the prophet Ezekiel.



8. About 1 AD, the ministry of Christ begins.




Despite geological evidence creationists still believe that ancient man and human history began with the birth of Adam and Eve roughly 6000 years ago. They firmly believe that human civilization began after the mythical flood some 4,500 years ago and that the Egyptian civilization was the true start of “superior intellect”, and the beginning of modern society and great empires.

Angels and Demons (Part Two)



Angels have been mentioned in ancient scripture as being our helpers in this life. What other roles do angels play in our lives and what types are there? How did some angels fall from grace and what happened to them?


What is the exact number of angels ever created? The answer to this question is well over 100,000 angels and some religious scholars would put the number even higher as being astronomical. For some believe God, the Creator, has imparted Guardian Angels to each and every one of us to protect and guide us in this life, and that number could be in the billions. The Book of Enoch goes on to describe that some angels sinned by desiring the daughters of men and these were cast down by God. In the book of Genesis, the fallen angels are identified as the “sons of God” or Nephilim who came to Earth with the intention of reproducing with humans. Fallen Angels and the Origins of Evil: Why Church Fathers Suppressed the Book of Enoch and Its Startling Revelations

In the Book of Revelation describes a war between the angels and God in heaven. The main architect and leader of this rebellion were led by Lucifer, an Archangel, who has fallen from grace due to pride and jealousy. In the book of Ezekiel describes how Lucifer tried to exalt himself to the same position of God and to be worshiped as though he and God were equals. Lucifer and one third of the angels rebelled in Heaven. At God’s command the Archangel Michael and his commanding angel army fought the fallen angels and Lucifer, now represented as the Dragon in the Holy Bible, in a terrible war that divided Heaven.


In the Book of Isaiah describes what happens after the Great War in heaven is over. After the Archangel Michael is victorious over Lucifer, God casts Lucifer into the pit of hell and spares the fallen angels to a doomed existence in the depths of hell with him as well as cursing them into demonic beings for their crimes against humanity and God. Thus, the division is complete with some angels remaining in heaven above the Earth and the fallen angels residing within the Earth.

Even though God’s angels defeated the rogue angles in the initial battle, the war between the angels is not over yet. The Bible teaches us that this is an ongoing event. That the forces of good and evil are still being played out on the face of the earth between humans, God’s angels, and demons. Some believe this is the natural Cycle of Life. Whether by God’s hand or by some universal source has made all creations everywhere on a multidimensional level has taken existence in the form of energy or in this case the soul and taken physical form of matter as a secondary appearance is vulnerable to a constant cycle of life and death.


The destruction of life or the disintegration of matter which metamorphosis into energy is a common cycle happening again and again in nature. The whole universe can be locked in an Alpha Omega scenario. A universe where good (light) and evil (dark) forces are constantly raging war, not just within the Earth itself, but in Heaven as well. Ancient cultures clearly defined this aggression against one another for no less than supremacy of Mankind and the entire universe. But this Cycle of Life of the universe does not end there as believers of reincarnation ascertain that after death comes rebirth, and the cycle begins again. Reincarnation: The Missing Link In Christianity

This kind of theory is exactly what the Mayan culture believed in 500 years ago and that all forms of life go through cycles of death and rebirth. Some believe in the scientific community that angelic entities and God-like beings have descended upon the Earth much earlier than thought. For the accepted age of the Earth is 4.5 billion years old and some believe we have been visited numerous times by supernatural beings from earlier records older than the Bible.


Nevertheless, with regards to angels, it is clear that the belief of angels is here to stay and that they have had a great impact on our lives throughout history. From our most Holy Scriptures and tomes from every religious culture around the world, they have mentioned God’s messengers, the peaceful and very powerful angels that have guided and protected mankind throughout human history. Angels are part of our lives every day when we pray and meditate to our God. Through angels we have a better connection with God. They are intervening supernatural being that comfort, protect, and guide us through the most difficult of times.
