Q. Dear Carolyn, I’ve heard you speak many times and have often read your work over the years. I received your book as a gift when my husband was diagnosed with cancer. At the time I was in such a state of confusion I didn’t read one page. After several courses of chemotherapy and remission, we are now told that the cancer has returned and spreading with a vengeance. Now I’m reading the book and wish I’d read it initially, before the surgery, chemotherapy and the horrible side effects.

Along with changing the diet and making the lifestyle adjustments, what else should we be doing?

And, is there a way to prevent cancer?

A. (Note: This question was so intense for me, please know that the full answer, which stretched over many emails and many phone calls over many days, could not be fully covered here. This writing is only a synopsis.) Yes, cancer can be prevented, in 95 percent of persons. Cancer is an aberration in the workings of an overtaxed, undernourished body, living in a toxic environment. However the body is ever growing, renewing and changing. The body is always seeking to live and to survive. The body is very complicated and very smart, cancer is not. Cancer only grows as we feed it, and stops growing and dies when we cut off its nutrient supply.

Ninety-five percent of cancers we know for sure are related to diet and lifestyle. To prevent cancer we must eat in a way to maintain our health and to strengthen the body, which is to feed the immune system, and to protect the blood/brain barrier. We must exercise the body, give it the proper rest at the proper time, and a lot of clean water to flush out the toxins, many of which the body makes on its own. Then we must protect the body from outside environmental toxins, which in this age is difficult to do but still is possible with thought and discipline.

Now that the cancer has returned you will need to perfect the diet. Make absolutely certain not to eat anything that can feed the cancer. The most important rule of the cancer diet is to abandon all sugar.

It is imperative that we take ownership of our lives and likewise our health. Better to seek information and products that answer the problems we face, rather than simply purchasing whatever is available, hoping it will pacify some want. Sometimes we just buy stuff, as with eating, really to satisfy some other need. We still want to have what others have, and to feel that we belong because we go, do or have, whatever the shiny new thing is.

One of the most important things to do, after you change your diet and adjust the lifestyle, is to inventory your thinking and your home. Compare your home keeping to that of your grandmother’s home. Think of how you came to clean your home with toxins, and to use air fresheners in your home, synthetic car fragrances and so many other modern products for convenience. Why does the car need to smell like an orange grove?

Next thing to do is to make an evaluation on your personal environment so that you can detoxify your home.

Remove and replace chemical cleaning products, and seek out mold. Look at the lawn care chemicals you walk into your home. Stop using antibacterial and antimicrobial chemical agents, which only weaken the immune system.

Do you know that some flame retardants are toxic as are gases from many manufactured products, including some synthetic fragrances and fabrics? Many cosmetics contain phthalates, formaldehyde and other harmful chemicals. Many lead-based products including paints are still in homes.

Reconsider pesticides, foam products, Teflon lined cookware, air fresheners, vinyl flooring and vinyl shower curtains, insulation materials, carpets made from manufactured fibers, aerosol propellants, artificial flavoring and colorings, drain cleaners, fluoride and sodium fluoride in water and in many toothpastes, oven cleaners and car polishes. There are thousands of other products that may be poisoning you in your home. The workplace is a whole other issue.

Cleaning up your diet, detoxifying your body and your home is hard, maybe, but so worth the effort you put into it. It can save your life and the lives of so many others.

Seek peace in your life, wisdom and right understanding. Set your spirit free to seek kindness, forgiveness, knowledge and joy, knowing that you are part of creation and the greater universe. Learning that happiness comes from within, not from outside ourselves. Seek total harmony and restore your life.
