DISEASES
"Patient-centered medicine emphasizes "patient
care" rather than "disease care." Functional Medicine Web Site
What Dr. Eger discovered is that a medical problem
called a "disease" may actually be nothing more than a "condition" brought on by
lousy metabolism secondary to a bad diet. You might not know what organ will be
most vulnerable to improper nutrition. For Kristen, it was her eyes. For you, it
might be your heart or circulation. For another, it might be a weakened immune
system leading to cancer. How many medical "conditions" (diseases) might be
nothing more that subnormal nutrition? In fact, I would wager that another more
prevalent eye "disease" — glaucoma — is directly related to diet, and could be
helped the same way. The first place to start with any problem, or for pure
prevention, is diet."

"Cancer cells don’t require a lot of oxygen to
live. In fact, it is this low oxygen level that allows them to thrive. Or to put
it in a way that even a physician can understand: Cancer cells become cancerous
not because they are the disease but because they are normal cells reacting to
the causative factors of disease. That is, cancer cells become cancer cells
because they are normal cells that cannot live in any other way. They are
following the First Commandment of Life: “Thou must live”. And in order for them
to live, they must give up their specific functions in the body and devolve to a
lower level of Life that is not so demanding of them. They become cancer cells
in order to survive, not because they want to be cancer cells. From this
perspective you can say that cancer is normal. It is not a disease but rather it
is the reaction of certain cells in the body to stress factors that cause these
cells to choose de-evolution to a cancerous state as a means of cellular
survival. They give up being highly advanced cells – brain, heart, liver,
kidney, skin, etc. – and take a step downward to a lower function. They become
cancerous as a survival strategy because nature only gives them this choice – or
they must die. Cancer is the reaction of cells to various factors that will
cause their death if they do not devolve to a lower, cancerous state."

Protocols for Disease Protection These Protocols are designed to
give you a good chance of maintaining a healthy body and avoiding the disease for life. If
you currently have the disease please see an
Integrative Doctor,
after you have used the protocol to understand your disease and begin your
research into it.
Note common medical usage refers to many of these as
"diseases" although as you become proficient in preventive medicine IMO you will
come think of them, correctly so, as adverse health CONDITIONS. I am
currently so confused about the difference between "conditions" and "diseases" that
I must say I am quite pleased about my confusion. MOST "disease" is IMO
usually nothing but an absence of health. "Germs" don't invade your body you invite them
in.
