At the present time, cancer is the leading cause of death in nearly all countries around the world.  In fact, it is to blame for over 30 percent of all deaths in Canada alone, which is much more compared to any other disease.  As estimated by the Canadian and American Cancer Societies, ovarian cancer had 2800 new cases and 1750 deaths in Canada, and 22,280 new cases and 14,240 deaths in the United States in 2016 alone.

Ovarian cancer develops when the cells of the ovaries form tumors that become malignant.  It is often referred to as “the silent killer” as it shows little or no symptoms, which are quite difficult to detect with screening.  While it is most common in post-menopausal women, it has recently started affecting younger women in their 30s and 40s. According to a recent research, early cancer detection notably increases the chances of survival, so regular check-ins are must.

Unfortunately, currently there isn’t any reliable test.  CA125 blood tests may give false negatives while smear tests are not capable of picking up malignant cells.  There is yet another problem, though.  Many of the symptoms are often mistaken read more

Many of us have a habit of expressing too much to people who are not worth it. We like being an open book and don’t have an issue with it but clearly some people don’t have the ethics to keep it to themselves. They will often go around taking benefit of the knowledge they have about us, twisting it in their own words and expressing it differently to people who don’t know us. This leads to a bad impression and weird gossip and no one wants that. Everyone likes a bit of mystery.

This is why it is so important to know who you can trust and give out information about yourself, as not everyone will be nice about it. It is also useful to know what to expect from people and recognize their vibe.

The normal process of creation of blood vessels in the body is called angiogenesis. This process is enhanced in some stages in life, for instance, in newborns. On the other hand, this function is not often performed later in life, only in cases such as in restoring the tissues and capillaries in wounds.

The role of activators and inhibitor molecules is the regulation of this process. In most cases, the inhibitors are more important, but then the activators of angiogenesis become necessary in order to stimulate the increased vascular cell growth for the formation of new blood vessels.

You’ve probably heard it or read that cancer cells cannot live in alkaline water because this alkaline water is extremely powerful!

WHAT IS ALKALINE WATER?

The pH (potential hydrogen) scale runs from zero to fourteen, and 7 is the neutral middle. A substance with a pH of less than 7 is an acid. A basic or alkaline substance has a pH of greater than 7.

When our bodies become too acidic, we feel low energy, fatigue, digestive issues, weight gain and other side effects that are completely avoidable just by drinking pure water and eating fresh organic vegetables with a healthy acid/alkaline balance

IMPORTANCE OF ALKALINITY

Food can determine our overall pH levels and that has been known for centuries. Dr. Otto Warburg of Germany, who was a Nobel Prize winner in 1931, discovered that that up to 95% of all cancers have the acidic environment as the cause behind them. He also managed to prove that cancers cannot thrive in an alkaline environment where read more
