Cells, good or bad, are smart.

Starving them of sugar is not a simple solution as it seems.

Cancer and sugar: Does changing your diet starve cancerous cells? - Health - ABC News

"Stopping sugar getting to cancer cells would also mean that your body's healthy cells get starved of necessary sugars," says the CEO of Cancer Council Australia, Professor Sanchia Aranda.

"I think that would make you lose weight, [and] would make your immune system less efficient and more likely that a cancer would progress."

What's more, our bodies are clever — they have other ways of getting glucose.

Even if you do try and cut it out, the body will just convert fat and protein stores into glucose where necessary.

[uls]

yes i know

that process is called gluconeogenesis

actually when you're running low on sugar, the body will use glycogen muna (stored in the liver and muscles)

so glucogenolysis muna

pag ubos na ang glycogen, gluconeogenesis na (generate glucose from non-glucose sources like protein and fat)

[uls]

my point wasn't that starving cancer cells of sugar will cure cancer

pero at least huwag mo na dagdagan ung fuel nila by drinking so much juice

cancer cells are hard to kill coz they want to survive and they evolve ways to escape whatever you throw at it

Not naman as treatment talaga, but some people use juicing to get badly needed nutrients back into the body.

Lalo na yung hirap lumunok ng solid foods.

the problem kasi pag level ng taipan nagsabi nga-nga ang tao naniniwala agad.

Sad to say most of our fruits and veggies lack nutrients already

can you explain pa dok in laymans.

[uls]

There are cancers that are dependent on hormones like breast cancer (estrogen) and prostate cancer (androgen)

you can slow down those cancers by blocking the hormones that are responsible

By Ervin Santiago August 17,2019



EDDIE BADEO

Pumanaw na ang sikat na fashion designer na si Eddie Baddeo. Siya ay 57 years old.

Mismong ang long-time partner niyang si Edgar Medina ang nagbahagi ng malungkot na balita sa kanyang Facebook page. Aniya, sumakabilang-buhay ang designer 1:40 a.m. kahapon.

Nag-post din ang model-actress na si Marina Benipayo, isa sa mga malalapit na kaibigan ni Eddie, sa kanyang Instagram account ng kanyang pakikiramay sa mga naulila ng designer, “Rest in God’s loving arms, our dear Eddie Baddeo. You will be missed,” aniya.

Nakilala nang husto ang galing ni Eddie Badeo sa pagde-design ng iba’t ibang uri ng kasuotan noong dekada ’80 lalo na ang kanyang mga creative creations gamit ang CDs at venetian blinds.

Nitong nakaraang July, nagdiwang siya ng kanyang 33rd year sa fashion industry. Na-diagnose si Eddie Baddeo ng stage 2 colorectal cancer noong 2016.

What went before

Eddie Baddeo continues to do what he does best—designing.


Eddie Baddeo battles the Big C
By: Vangie Baga-Reyes Philippine Daily Inquirer / 06:50 AM November 13, 2016

Extend!”

That was the only word that came out of Eddie Baddeo’s lips, after the biopsy result confirmed his worst fear: colorectal cancer stage 2.

He didn’t ask why. He never got mad. He simply begged God for an “extension” of sorts.

It dawned on him that he had had a good and beautiful life—yes, primarily because of the fame and fortune that came with being one of the most popular and successful fashion designers in the country.

Yet, it was the same life he has tried to take so many times when things didn’t go his way.

Not just once or twice, but “several times,” said Baddeo, 55. “In a year, twice or thrice.”

He tried committing suicide by slashing his wrists on different occasions.

He would question God’s existence and blame Him for his problems. When depression set in, when he felt unloved or when he got tired of dealing with staff and family and pleasing his clients and protecting his image, he thought about ending it all.

In his last attempt, he downed 200 tablets of Benadryl, five Valium and five Lexotan.

He was rushed to the nearest hospital and lived.

Real challenge

“The Lord might be telling me now, ‘So, you keep on challenging me? Here’s the real challenge,” said Baddeo.

“But, I don’t question Him,” he added. “I claim that I’ll endure the challenge because He has kept me alive up to this day despite all my mistakes in life.”

Baddeo learned of his illness five months ago, after he was brought to the hospital because of severe abdominal pain and swelling.

Before that, there were already episodes of elevated blood pressure and extreme tiredness, especially in the afternoon. He had been bleeding and was constipated at the same time.

The bleeding started last year, but he chose to ignore it, thinking it was just the side effect of his hypothyroid condition. He was also starting to lose weight.

“Honestly, the first thing that came to my mind was I had AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome),” Baddeo said.

He took the HIV test. It was negative.

He underwent a colonoscopy, and that was when the doctors found a malignant tumor.

Last option

The tumor was said to be as big as a golf ball.

Alarmed, Baddeo’s attending physician immediately ordered surgery and presented Baddeo the grim possibility that he would have to use a colostomy bag for life after the operation.

“It took me a while to process everything,” Baddeo recalled. “Then, I cried and cried. I cried so hard and just said to God, ‘Extend.’”

Baddeo refused to undergo surgery and opted to seek second and third opinion. He also started calling friends and family.

“I couldn’t afford to ask God anymore why this was happening to me with all the blessings He had given me. I just knew He’d make a way for me and lead me to people who could help me go through this battle,” said Baddeo.

“I’ve been through a lot of trials in my life. I would complain, but I’m just human. I’ve already confessed and asked for His forgiveness. I just don’t want to go under the knife. I’m not yet ready. Surgery is my last option.”

No death sentence

Baddeo, who made a name in the ’90s with his couture creations, underwent 22 sessions of radiation and is starting his third cycle of chemotherapy, based on the recommendation of his oncologist and good friend, Dr. Jennifer Gonong.

He’s scheduled to undergo a PET-CT scan in January to check if the tumor has shrunk. Baddeo is only hoping for the best.

In between treatments and regular blood tests and checkups, he continues to work and keeps himself busy designing for loyal clients and attending various fashion events like the annual Best Dressed Women of the Philippines Awards Ball by the Philippine Cancer Society.

“I want my life to be as normal as possible,” he said. “People think of cancer as a death sentence. No, I’m still alive and loving life more. I’m more inspired to work now and happy to be with people. Funny, some of my clients would tell me, ‘Don’t ever think of giving up. You’re the only one who makes clothes that fit us so perfectly.’”

Pilgrimage and devotion

When not working, he goes on pilgrimages to churches to pray for healing, not only for himself but for others, as well.

“I realized there are so many people who are sick like me,” said Baddeo, who goes for treatment in a government hospital. “And these people, young and old, have no financial resources. My heart breaks for them.”

Baddeo has started a devotion to Our Lady of Perpetual Help in Baclaran and Our Lady of Manaoag in Pangasinan. He’s been to Our Lady of Mediatrix Shrine in San Mateo, Rizal; Kamay ni Hesus in Lucban, Quezon; Monasterio de Tarlac in San Jose, Tarlac; and Santo Ninño de Providencia in Las Piñas City.

He’s also sought prayers from healing priests Fr. Fernando Suarez and Fr. Joey Faller.

Baddeo prays the rosary every day, sometimes twice a day.

“I turn to the rosary, especially when fear starts to consume me or when I feel pain in my body,” he said.

Assistance

Baddeo admits that cancer has changed the way he sees things and deals with people. He’s more compassionate and caring now. He has also renewed his relationship with his family. Baddeo’s siblings used to distance themselves from him.

“I was so strict with them because I was the sole breadwinner in the family. I was mataray and they got scared. I was so busy with work that even my parents couldn’t talk to me.”

But when his siblings learned of his condition, they all trooped to the hospital to give their all-out support.

“I cried when I saw them,” he said. “I thought they didn’t love me anymore. I apologized to them.”

His friends also play a big role. They take turns in accompanying Baddeo to his treatments and check on him every so often. Some even offer financial assistance. They’ve helped him seek assistance from the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office, Red Cross and Philippine Cancer Society. His doctors—Gonong, Anthony Abad, Juliana Tamayo and Rosalina Castillo Magnaye—make sure he gets all the medical attention he needs.

“The support of family and friends is very important. Cancer doesn’t affect only the sick person, but also the whole family in all aspects,” he said.

He’s also trying to boost his appetite to regain the lost pounds. He’s more conscious now about what he eats, refraining from red meat and dairy products and eating only fish, veggies, salads and fruits. He needs lots of fiber in his diet to avoid constipation.

Baddeo’s long-time partner Edgar Medina, a diabetic, has also changed his diet.

“Edgar and I used to eat steak every night. Now, no more,” said Baddeo.

He’s grateful to Medina

for staying with him all this time. “I don’t know what I would do without him. He takes care of me and handles all my meds. I remember the look on his face when he found out I have cancer. He cried, and I told him he has to be strong for me.”

Done with depression

Lately, Baddeo has been drinking lots of tawa-tawa tea. His immune system and platelet count dropped during his last chemo treatment. He bled profusely and his blood pressure plunged to 90/50.

“I offer everything to God—all my pains and sufferings,” he said. “Whenever I feel low and in pain, I just lift up everything to Him. I surrender myself to him.”

After the pain recedes, Baddeo bounces back to life and continues what he does best— designing. He’s hoping that, one day, he can stage a show, the proceeds of which will go to cancer patients and to the poorest of the poor.

“I push myself and continue to work, because that makes me busy. I need to work for my staff. They need me. I still want to be active. I’m alive. I want to be an inspiration to others that life can be beautiful even with cancer. You have to accept your fate. I’m done with depression and loneliness. I’m happy now because I know I’m closer to God than ever.”

Ito na yung sakit na nakita ko nangangayayat agad. Dalawa na yung kilala ko nagkaganito. Mag-iiba talaga itsura mo. Pag digestion and defecation mo talaga nadale eh mahirap na mabuhay.

Kaya ako pinakaconcious ako pag umeebak. I really check everytime itsura ng ebak ko. Kaya nga kala nyo nagjoke ako na kaya ko makipaglabanan sa inyo after ko umebak kahit walang flush hindi nyo maamoy ebak ko.

Kaya tama sabi ni presdu, pag amoy bulok na ebak nyo eh kabahan na kayo. Chaka pag pencil thin palagi eh delikadengdeng.

And i dont think radiation and removing your colon will help. Eebak ka na sa colostomy bag mapapadali pa buhay mo. So just find an alternative option.

Majority sa conventional fit people concious sa blood sugar, checking so many "numbers" Pero the first laboratory a human should check is his own stool. Did you digest your food properly? Ano ang amoy? Color? Size? Pag umebak ka ba nailabas mo ba lahat or may feeling na naiwan? Sabog-sabog ba basa basa or buo lumabas?

And people should understand if sugar is the enemy of not. Mafeel nyo yan kung mas hiyang kayo sa fat or sugar. We are not all the same.

Sugar for me is good for assisting digestion.
