Metastatic breast cancer
Hi Anne Maree,
My name is Sam and I was diagnosed with metastases in Feb. I thought my cancer had disappeared back in 2000 after initial diagnosis and conventional treatment so it was a huge shock! My diet, qigong, good headspace and supplements have all contributed to my lungs clearing and the bone mets regressing. Long live vegans and good for you for starting this group!!!!!!

No I have a brilliant juicer so not gone there but it does great smoothies eg, 1/2 lemon, 1/2 grapefruit, whole avocado cucumber handful spinach and mint, top with shredded coconut...this one tastes really good! Also I put in veges of choice then lemon juice, tamari or Braggs, olive oil, 1 date if you want sweetener and splash apple cider vinegar...very nice. Get her to do a soup as it is so quick and also a rice dish as it cooks rice really well. The raw cacao balls would be a great way to finish off! They are quick, easy and yum, enjoy!

Hi there,
I use the thermomix for everything. You can chuck away all other appliances except your juicer. It is amazing. I eat mainly raw but cook things like pumpkin soup with skin on in 20 minutes in this appliance and it does all the work. It is the best kitchen investment though expensive. I would recommend it to anyone!

Hi Anne Marie,
Great you can sleep! That is where I am going as life has been too hectic since I started back at school and doing raw food tours at our organic shop. I am really well, cancer is still decreasing and leaving this cancer-unfriendly zone and I am very happy to be getting my life back to some normality without feeling fear or anxiety. Things seem to be going the right way and I hope they are for you and your friend too x

Sorry Celeste only just read your message. My suspected lung mets disappeared in 3 months. I had no grains, sugars, meat, dairy, fruit just veges basically for that time! I was very strict but knew there was an end point when I then introduced grains back. I did do Budwig though so got a fix of raspberries I admit. I juice everyday in morning about 1.25 litres. Do qigong most days as meditation as not great at stillness. I also started iscador in that 3 months and was walking atleast 3 times a week briskly for 30 minutes or more. I hope you are well. Will do a new blog next week with a coupla recipes. I started to do 7 day meal plan tours at our organic shop in East Maitland, very enjoyable. Take care, Sam

Hi Sam,
Just interested in checking how things are progressing? I am waiting for scans in 2 weeks. My insomnia is now gone. Yipee!! It is so good to be able to sleep now. I am having contact with someone else who has lung and bone mets who is interested in lifestyle change.

Thanks for your post. Yes I do eat organic muesli for breakfast, so will look for goji berries (organic preferably) and raw cacao nibs, which I assume I can get from a health shop? The coconut balls you mentioned sound yum..looking forward to the recipe! Yes I need to get back to my naturopath to discuss supplements...I will mention to her the ones you have suggested. My cancer is progesterone positive, so the cream is no good for me. Have looked at the Budwig Diet..but so far have had no luck finding organic cottage cheese in the supermarkets, but will keep looking. Do you ever do any juicing? What do you consider to be the priorities when first starting out on this alternative approach to healing? I also have lung mets (diagnosed 4th October 2011), and am very curious to know how long it was before yours cleared?
Thanks Sam.
Take care, Celeste xx

Am really enjoying your blog on Youtube...thank you for sharing with us all! I'm hoping you will talk about supplements some time soon. I'm gradually getting used to the change in diet, but as I have a sweet tooth I'm finding it a real challenge some days! Any suggestions? I'm also having chemo at the moment which can make it a bit difficult in choosing suitable foods...the metallic taste in the mouth and nausea doesn't help! I've decided to try to where possible eat organic foods (including organic yoghurt, cheese, milk) but I don't eat any red meat, processed foods or sugar anymore (although I have fell off the wagon with a sweet now and then due to my sweet tooth). I eat organic free range chicken and free-range eggs. I know deep sea fish is recommended, but not sure what types of fish this includes...? I'm really hoping this change in diet (in conjunction with chemo and Herceptin) will make a difference to my lung mets....I wont know until December. I have lost about 8 kilos already which is great, and could quite easily afford to lose another 8 which would be wonderful!
Thank you for the positive blog on Youtube...keep 'em coming!
Take care, Celeste x

Hi I have created a blog on youtube where I share some of my information that has helped me to repel cancer and have called it repellingcancer so please have a look and I also share recipes but have only managed two entries so far. I have had to put a disclaimer on my info as I dont want to get into trouble for sharing what has helped me as I am obviously not a trained physician just someone who wants to share some positivity. Thanks, Sam.

Hi Sam,
Just looking at the Loving Earth website and had a few queries before I make an order.
Plain Gogi Berry museli, did you purchase this from loving earth. I cant find it. Whats in the plain gogi berry museli if not from loving earth?
It sounds like you soak your own nuts. How do you do this? I read on another site to soak for 12 hours then rinse. Do you dry your nuts in dehydrater or oven on lowest temperature?
Almond milk, do you make it or buy it packaged.

Hi yes flaxseed oil blended in quark or organic cottage cheese made palatable with raspberries. I dont remember every day but try to have it as often as possible. Have heard of a man recently who dropped his PSA from 500 to 1.6 using diet and budwig. I think it shows real promise! Vegan era is a good website for recipesI suppose you already know. Google raw food recipes for some great ideas. I am a bit lazy when it comes to my turn after preparing the kids meal so salad is my staple. Glad warmer months are here! Take care you are inspiring to me we can all inspire each other!!!!
