By Jondi Gumz

If you are on a journey to heal from breast cancer, you have many options. Since 2018, I have taken advantage of all of these options. Acupuncture is way to lower stress in the body and move "stuck energy." Blood tests can track your progress. Look at Dr. Nasha Winters' trifecta, C-reactive protein, ESR (erythrocyte sedimentation rate) and LDH (lactic acid dehydrogenase). Colonic therapy could be a game-changer if you have candida or parasites. D is the vitamin crucial for healing. Most Americans are insufficient (below 50) or deficient. Epsom salt foot soak with lavender essential oil is relaxing before bedtime. Frankincense & myrrh essential oils blended antiinflammatory in a 2019 review. Garlic is one of the powerful foods recommended by Dr. Joel Fuhrman with beans, onions, mushrooms, berries, seeds. Hope: Dr. Tony Jimenez, M.D., and author, says there's always hope. Iodine: Are you deficient? Have you checked? Joy: Look for ways to bring joy into your life. K2: A little-known vitamin that shuttles calcium into your teeth and bones. Laughter is the best medicine. Watch comedies or try Laughter Yoga on Meetup. Magnesium: Performs 300 body functions. Blood test measures adequacy. Nutrition education is lacking in doctor training. Dr. Michael Klaper is seeking change. Ozone kills harmful bacteria, viruses, fungi and yeasts but leaves healthy cells alone. Prayer can bring peace and strength into your life. James 5:14. Qi Gong: Slow movements, rooted in Chinese medicine, may lower stress and improve mood. RGCC Research Genetic Cancer Center in Greece measures sensitivity of your body to 98 drugs and 45 natural compounds based on your blood. Up to 4 weeks for results. Sleep: 8 hours of good sleep helps your body recover. If you aren't getting enough, look into magnesium, ashwagandha or melatonin before bedtime. Toxins: Does your body have toxins? Such as mercury amalgam dental fillings and crowns or mold, plastics and Roundup (glyphosate). Test, don’t guess. Urine pH: Test in a.m. to see if your urine is acidic, which is conducive to tumor growth. Vitamin C: Another essential along with Coenzyme Q10, omega-3 essential fatty acids, and selenium (check Brazil nuts). Water: Essential for life. You probably should drink more water. Divide your weight in 2. So 120 lbs. means 60 oz. water. Replace coffee. To make it cleaner, filter it. X Exercise, walking, rebounding, will move your lymph to help waste products exit your body. Yoga: Meditation, breathing and poses connect mind, body, and spirit. See WomenCARE Santa Cruz on Facebook. Zinc deficiency is common unless you eat oysters regularly. You need enough zinc for 100 enzymes to do their job. Disclaimer: I am not a doctor and this is not medical advice.
