Let’s Go Nuts and Fight Cancer©2003 Marilyn Diamond and Donald Schnell

America loves wars. Currently, we are so busy fighting the “War on Terrorism” that we’ve forgotten about the thirty-year long “War on Cancer.”

The “War on Cancer” was declared in 1971. It has cost taxpayers billions of dollars, and the only outcome is that cancer statistics have climbed from one out of eleven in the 1970’s to one out of two in 2002.

“From about 1 in 11 in 1970, to 1 in 7 in 1980, to 1 in 4 in 1990, to

about 1 in 2.15 people in the U.S. who are expected to develop cancer in their lifetime in 2002. When will it reach 1 in 1 ... if we let it?”

Don Weaver, To Love and Regenerate the Earth

In just one year, 1996, more Americans lost their lives from cancer than from war in the entire 20th century. Ten million had died by 1996 since the War on Cancer was first declared. One in two families will be presently touched by cancer, and one out of four babies will die of the disease.

This is a “WAR” we are certainly losing. This is a war we must wage.

In 1986, three professors at the prestigious Cornell University Medical Center were certain they’d discovered a natural weapon to fight cancer. They announced a naturally occurring remedy to stem the rising tide of the killer disease. Realizing that we were in the middle of an epidemic they announced their “cure” to the world.

The press conference never made front-page news.

We never heard about it.

We ask whole auditoriums of people if they’ve ever heard this news.

Essentially no one raises a hand.

Do you know about this?

The Cornell doctors recommended that each of us should be sure to consume more selenium then the RDI suggests. Selenium is a naturally occurring mineral. It should be found in soil. It should be available from our foods.

The RDI is the recommended daily allowance. It is set at 70 mcg of selenium a day for both men and women.

But research claims we need not lower than 200 and as high as 600 mcg for the antioxidant effect and to help prevent cancer.

Ask the average doctor if you need to take a selenium supplement. The answer will probably be, “No, just eat a balanced diet and you’ll be fine!”

Typically, the average doctor’s twelve hours of nutrition in medical school hasn’t kept pace with the thousands of studies in nutritional science. Unfortunately, many physicians are as overweight and under-exercised as their patients. Their rates of cancer are as high and in some cases even higher than the average population. Doctors need this information as much as the lay public.

The information is here.

The experts at Cornell University had proof that America could stem the rising tide of cancer, if each individual would consume about 600 mcg of selenium a day. Not 70 mcg, as the RDI erroneously suggests. Nearly 10 times the amount of the RDI!

This is potentially life saving information. One out of two Americans is now struck with cancer.

Now here’s the problem. Is selenium in our soils? Is it in our foods?

Selenium occurs most abundantly in soil containing volcanic ash. The soil in northeastern, Pacific, southwestern, and extreme southeastern regions of the U.S. are all deficient in selenium. In Canada, the north central and eastern regions are deficient. Food grown in these areas will also be deficient in selenium.

In fact the average American diet contains about 33 mcg of selenium a day. This is about one half of what is minimally required and 1/20th of the Cornell recommendation for cancer prevention.

Selenium has been shown to improve the efficiency with which DNA can repair itself after being exposed to damaging substances. This means your body can fight poisons better when adequate amounts of the mineral are available.
