The Philosophy of Regeneration
Broccoli, Cabbage, Soy Found to Cut Cancer Risk
What
is REGENERATION?
The
Philosophy of Regeneration states that if you nourish the body with
the right combination of whole concentrated herbal foods, the body
will regenerate itself. When the body is balanced, it works better
and you feel better! Why
Regeneration? Why is it important for the body to regenerate itself?
Regeneration is the way the body rebuilds and replaces cells, be they
bone, brain or muscle.
A
physician of China's Tang Dynasty, Sun Ssu-mo, maintained that the
diet was of paramount importance to maintain health. He believed that
a truly good physician first finds out the cause of the illness and
then tries to cure it by the use of foods. Only when food failed did
he prescribe medication. Treating illness and disease is left to trained
medical doctors. The preservation of health is everyone's opportunity
and responsibility.
Most
people have spent years employing poor eating and nutritional habits.
This is not necessarily due to neglect of their bodies. They did not
realize what they had been putting into their bodies. This is due
to the over processing of many if not most of the foods found in today's
marketplace. This does not only include "junk type fast foods," just
as often the foods that people think are "wholesome" foods. Many
of these contain toxins in the form of preservatives and artificial
flavorings and enhance. You also have many toxins in your body from
the air you breathe, water you drink and bath/shower in, and there
are many pollutants absorbed through your skin. This does not even
count those toxins that you self-induce and drugs (both prescription
and non-prescription.)
Your
body is an incredible machine that has the ability to both cure itself
of disease and ills as well as improve itself to the highest level
of perfection possible - if only you would/could nourish it properly
and then leave it alone to do its own work!
Introducing
Your Body to Proper Nutrition When you begin to introduce your body
to better nutrition - such as in the form of superior whole food concentrates
grown and produced by Sunrider International - you begin to provide
your body with the highest quality of food and nutrients available.
These nutrients are of such high quality that they are in synergistic
(working together) harmony with the body. In turn, the body can now
easily assimilate these nutrients into your system with less effort.
More of the nutrients can now be used to begin building your body
to the perfect state of health originally intended.
During
this new experience of superior nutrients or "building materials,"
that our body begins major reconstruction or regeneration. The body
will always strive to build the best body possible using the best
"high grade" materials available. Like the reconstruction of a house
there must first be many areas torn down and cleaned out before the
real "building" can begin. This
is why one of the major parts of a total nutrition program includes
a cleansing beverage.
Sunrider
supplies two such cleansing beverages - Call and Fortune Delight.
Calli was formulated 5,000 years ago by the Shaolin Priests in the
Himalayas. To increase mental focus and concentration during meditations.
If the body is toxic it interferes with the brain's abilityto think,
reason, focus and remember. The toxins that will be cleansed out of
your system and flushed will be much greater in the early stages of
your program. Remember that no matter how well you eat you will always
be exposed to toxins from some form of cooked/processed food, beverage,
air through skin and lungs, water, prescriptions, etc.
Cleansing
your body is important for healthy maintenance daily. The body regenerates
because all life works to live and stay in balance. Dr. Deepak Chopra
is a respected endocrinologist (study of the endocrine glands and
the internal secretions of the body) who has brought together current
research done by Western science, neuroscience and physics with the
insights of Eastern health theories.
Dr.
Chopra, in his book Quantum Healing, states that the human body is
controlled by a network of intelligence and is itself the greatest
healer known. Today's "miracle drugs" come from medical science's
efforts to replicate the body's own functions. Western medicine took
the route of substituting synthetic chemicals for those made by the
body, whereas the Chinese pursued the path of bolstering the body's
own chemical producing factories, such as glands, to effect change.
How
Does Regeneration Work?
The
process is complex. Simply put, Sunrider foods help in the regeneration
process by sending balanced nutrition to the body's cells and by cleaning
out toxins.
What
Effect Does Regeneration Have On You?
The
body uses its vast internal intelligence system to sift through all
food you eat, looking for the best nutritional building blocks available.
Familiar foods like coffee, soft drinks and french fries limit your
body's energy and nutrition resources. When these foods are replaced
with high quality foods that actively nourish, balance and cleanse
the body, regeneration takes place naturally. Why? Because your
body is not using its energy to hold the line against negative effects
of unhealthy foods.
Adding
Sunrider foods to an already healthy diet, your body will quickly
begin working more efficiency and at a higher energy level.

Broccoli,
Cabbage, Soy Found to Cut Cancer Risk

WASHINGTON, DC, February 10, 2006 (ENS) -
Some
vegetables contain chemicals that appear to enhance DNA repair in
cells, which could lead to protection against cancer development,
say Georgetown University Medical Center researchers.
In
a new study published in the "British Journal of Cancer" and by the
journal "Nature" the researchers show that in laboratory tests, a
compound called indole-3-carinol (I3C), found in broccoli, cauliflower
and cabbage, and a chemical called genistein, found in soy beans,
can increase the levels of two specific proteins that repair damaged
DNA.
This
study is one of the first to provide a molecular explanation as to
how eating vegetables could cut the risk of developing cancer, an
association that some population studies have found, says the study's
senior author, Eliot M. Rosen, MD, PhD, professor of oncology, cell
biology, and radiation medicine at Georgetown's Lombardi Comprehensive
Cancer Center. "It is now clear that the function of crucial cancer
genes can be influenced by compounds in the things we eat," Rosen
says. "Our findings suggest a clear molecular process that would
explain the connection between diet and cancer prevention."
In
this study, Rosen exposed breast and prostate cancer cells to increasing
doses of I3C and genistein, and found that these chemicals boosted
production of the repair proteins BRCA1 and BRCA2. Since decreased
amounts of the BRCA proteins are seen in cancer cells, higher levels
might prevent cancer from developing, Rosen speculates, adding
that the ability of I3C and genistein to increase production of BRCA
proteins could explain their protective effects.
The
study was funded by the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation and
the National Cancer Institute and co-authors include Drs. Saijun Fan,
MD, PhD, Qinghui Meng, MS, Karen Auborn, PhD, and Timothy Carter,
PhD.
