Vegetarian Diet Save Life
Mrs Lisa Ng, 41, had
lymphoma in 1997. She was given just six months to live. But she
beat the odds. Last July, she was declared cancer-free. She
believes this is because she changed her diet. "I had regular
chemotherapy, but the cancer had spread to my spine. My body
couldn't take (stronger doses of chemo) - my heart and lungs were
swollen and I was semi-conscious. My husband was told I would die
or slip into a coma. "I stopped the chemo...I had no alternative
but to try the Gerson diet, which is raw organic fruits and
vegetables." No salt, no meat, no oil. Each day, she drank
nine coffee cups of fresh juices, ate steamed potatoes and a
blended soup of vegetables. She said: "As my cancer markers kept
going down, my doctor told me to continue what I was doing." Mrs Ng
still eats this diet for its protective effects. She also believes
in having the right altitude. "I have two young children. I wanted
to live. So I never gave up," she said.
Wow, that happened more than 10 years ago. Is she still alive?
She should go round spreading the words, encouraging others to be
vegetarian.
I notice those who are vegetarian look much younger than their
age.
