People in the past have always eaten mostly raw, natural and organic food which is an entirely different dietary concept than we have today.  Most of the food we buy these days has been processed and in the course of processing many of the nutrients that keep us healthy, have been lost due to processing. One such nutrient is the phytonutrients, also called phytochemicals only recently discovered in the early 90s and found to be beneficial in keeping us both cancer free and even reversing cancer.

Once we thought that vitamins and minerals were all the nutrients necessary to keep us healthy but we now know there are other nutrients, essential for optimal health and they are phytonutrients. It is these powerful nutrients that give fruit and vegetables their many colors and also provide us with Mother Nature’s medicine.

These chemical compounds occur naturally in plants, their role is to protect them from diseases, injury and damage from insects. They form part of the plants immune system. It’s these same phytonutrients that have been found to have cancer fighting properties which help us not only to stay cancer free but to help us overcome cancer as well.

The different color phytonutrients are;

Red;   tomatoes, red grapes, red onions, red apples, beetroot. Yellow – Orange;    apricots, peaches, sweet potatoes, melons, carrots, pumpkins citrus fruits. Green;    cruciferous vegetables which are broccoli, spinach, cabbage. White;    garlic, onions, leeks, potatoes. Blue – Purple;    blueberries, aubergines, boysenberries,

As you can see these phytonutrients are concentrations manly on the skin of fruit and vegetables and are responsible for the color, hue, scent and flavors. While there are many phytonutrients that have been identified, there are probably thousands more that remain to be discovered.

Clinical trials are now revealing that phytonutrients can enhance and strengthen the immune system and play an important role in keeping us cancer free. It has also revealed that phytonutrients can even slow the aging process, prevent and reverse conditions such as heart disease. Using food, especially vegetables to treat serious health challenges like cancer are a far smarter choice than using drugs.

Unfortunately we spend billions of dollars in treating cancer today yet we spend little promoting the consumption of apples, oranges, cruciferous vegetables and other healthy food that medicine well knows are helpful in preventing and overcoming diseases such as cancer. Thanks to our mainstream medicine today the public has remained virtually illiterate on nutrition for several decades.

The most powerful weapon when fighting cancer is the food you choose to eat everyday.

An innovative new phone that includes a microscope could help combat the spread of deadly diseases in the most remote parts of the world. The CelloPhone can be used to diagnose diseases such as tuberculosis and malaria and will act as a mobile doctor in places where medical resources are limited.

The idea started as a student project at Berkeley College in the US. It developed into “Celloscope” and became the winner of the Vodafone Americas Foundation Wireless Innovation Project prize.

The Celloscope works in the same manner as a laboratory-style florescence microscope but has the advantage of being portable, meaning that it can be used in developing countries where facilities are scarce. For example, the Gambia struggles to combat malaria (the cause of 25% of child deaths annually) but they do have good mobile phone networks and so can make use of the advantages of the CelloPhone.

Celloscope studies sample cells from blood, urine or saliva. These images are then sent by MMS to a central station where a computer programme returns the diagnosis to CelloPhone as a text message. Malaria is a major public health problem around the world, with 300 to 500 million people in more than 100 countries suffering from malaria annually.  90% of these cases occur in sub-Saharan Africa. Malaria is curable, yet the disease kills more than a million people each year, mainly children under five.

With the advent of the Cellophone, eradication may no longer be a dream. The Gambia has been doing well so far with its malaria control program and may manage to eliminate it in the next decade, especially with the advantage of a coastal location (which means a swathe of the country is free from malaria-infested borders). The Cellophone could help with a faster diagnosis in a region with limited resources but a high rate of survival.
