ASPARAGUS & CANCER...

Assalamualaikum...



This Article I took from the email sent by a friend. I do not know how true. For sure certain vegetables are good for our health and I really like it(Asparagus). Here I include the contents of this email. Let's hope there is benefit ...





Asparagus - Who Knew?????

My Mom had been taking the full-stalk canned style asparagus that she pureed and she took 4 tablespoons in the morning and 4 tablespoons later in the day. She did this for over a month. She is on chemo pills for Stage 3 lung cancer in the pleural area and her cancer cell count went from 386 down to 125 as of this past week. Her oncologist said she does not need to see him for 3 months.

THE ARTICLE:
Several years ago, I had a man seeking asparagus for a friend who had cancer. He gave me a photocopied copy of an article, entitled, "Asparagus For Cancer" printed in Cancer News Journal, December 1979..
I will share it here, just as it was shared with me:
'I am a biochemist, and have specialized in the relation of diet to health or over 50 years..Several years ago, I learned of the discovery of Richard R. Vensal, D.D..S. that asparagus might cure cancer. Since then, I have worked with him on his project We have accumulated a number of favorable case histories. Here are a few examples:

Case No. 1, A man with an almost hopeless case of Hodgkin's disease (cancer of the lymph glands) who was completely incapacitated. Within 1 year of starting the asparagus therapy, his doctors were unable to detect any signs of cancer, and he was back on a schedule of strenuous exercise.

Case No. 2, a successful businessman 68 years old who suffered from cancer of the bladder for 16 years. After years of medical treatments, including radiation without improvement, he went on asparagus. Within 3 months, examinations revealed that his bladder tumor had disappeared and that his kidneys were normal.

Case No. 3, a man who had lung cancer. On March 5th 1971, he was put on the operating table where they found lung cancer so widely spread that it was inoperable. The surgeon sewed him up and declared his case hopeless. On April 5th he heard about the Asparagus therapy and immediately started taking it. By August, x-ray pictures revealed that all signs of the cancer had disappeared.. He is back at his regular business routine.

Case No. 4, a woman who was troubled for a number of years with skin cancer. She finally developed different skin cancers which were diagnosed by the acting specialist as advanced. Within 3 months after starting on asparagus, her skin specialist said that her skin looked fine and no more skin lesions. This woman reported that the asparagus therapy also cured her kidney disease, which started in 1949. She had over 10 operations for kidney stones, and was receiving government disability payments for an inoperable, terminal, kidney condition.. She attributes the cure of this kidney trouble entirely to the asparagus.

I was not surprised at this result, as `The elements of materia medica', edited in1854 by a Professor at the University of Pennsylvania , stated that asparagus was used as a popular remedy for kidney stones. He even referred to experiments, in 1739, on the power of asparagus in dissolving stones. Note the dates!

We would have other case histories but the medical establishment has interfered with our obtaining some of the records. I am therefore appealing to readers to spread this good news and help us to gather a large number of case histories that will overwhelm the medical skeptics about this unbelievably simple and natural remedy.

For the treatment, asparagus should be cooked before using, and therefore canned asparagus is just as good as fresh.
I have corresponded with the two leading canners of asparagus, Giant and Stokely, and I am satisfied that these brands contain no pesticides or preservatives . Place the cooked asparagus in a blender and liquefy to make a puree, and store in the refrigerator . Give the patient 4 full tablespoons twice daily , morning and evening. Patients usually show some improvement in from 2-4 weeks. It can be diluted with water and used as a cold or hot drink . This suggested dosage is based on present experience, but certainly larger amounts can do no harm and may be needed in some cases.

As a biolchemist I am convinced of the old saying that `what cures can prevent.' Based on this theory, my wife and I have been using asparagus puree as a beverage with our meals.

We take 2 tablespoons diluted in water to suit our taste with breakfast and with dinner. I take mine hot and my wife prefers hers cold. For years we have made it a practice to have blood surveys taken as part of our regular checkups. The last blood survey, taken by a medical doctor who specializes in the nutritional approach to health, showed substantial improvements in all categories over the last one, and we can attribute these improvements to nothing but the asparagus drink....

As a biochemist, I have made an extensive study of all aspects of cancer, and all of the proposed cures. As a result, I am convinced that asparagus fits in better with the latest theories about cancer. Asparagus contains a good supply of protein called histones, which are believed to be active in controlling cell growth.. For that reason, I believe asparagus can be said to contain a substance that I call cell growth normalizer. That accounts for its action on cancer and in acting as a general body tonic. In any event, regardless of theory, asparagus used as we suggest, is a harmless substance. The FDA cannot prevent you from using it and it may do you much good. It has been reported by the US National Cancer Institute, that asparagus is the highest tested food containing glutathione, which is considered one of the body's most potent anticarcinogens and antioxidants.

ISLAM DIHINA....SALAH SIAPA?

Assalamualaikum...


Islam agama pengganas, islam melahirkan pengganas, islam kolot, islam agama mundur dan bermacam-macam lagi istilah yang dilabelkan keatas islam oleh musuh islam khususnya dari barat. Al-Quraan menyeru orang islam ke jalan keganasan(JIHAD) .Kitab Al-Quraan adalah ciptaan Muhammad dan bermacam-macam lagi momokan ke atas islam sehingga menyesakan dada kita umat islam mendengarnya. Salah siapa?


Salah siapa sehingga menyebabkan agama yang luhur ini dicemar sedemikian rupa? Saya tidak mahu mengaitkan golongan kafirun dalam hal ini kerana itu memang menjadi kerja mereka dan kita sememangnya tidak boleh mengharapkan golongan ini untuk menjaga urusan agama kita.

Apa yang hendak saya tekankan disini ialah, apakah peranan kita didalam memelihara kesucian agama yang di amanahkan oleh Allah kepada kita? Apakah kita betul-betul telah melaksanakan tanggungjawab kita dalam memelihara dan menjaga agama suci ini dari diinjak-injak dengan sewenang-wenangnya oleh musuh islam.

Bukankah kita yang sepatutnya mempertahankan agama kita dari diserang oleh musuh-musuh islam? Bukankah kita yang seharusnya menjadi sebaik-baik contoh kepada yang bukan islam untuk mereka berjinak-jinak dengan islam seterusnya menarik minat mereka memeluk agama suci ini?

Jika diteliti situasi hari ini, kitalah yang dilihat menyebabkan pelbagai persepsi buruk yang dilabelkan ke atas agama kita ini. Kita sendiri yang menjadi punca agama islam dipandang serong dan dihina. Ini kerana kita tidak mencerminkan keperibadian keseluruhan islam itu sendiri. Apa yang disarankan oleh islam tidak kita ikuti sepenuhnya sebaliknya kita lebih rela mengikuti system yang berpaksikan dari barat itu sendiri.


Kita dilihat sentiasa tidak boleh bersatu dan bertelagah sesama kita. Di Negara timur tengah contohnya, sentiasa ada peperangan merebut kuasa , merebut wilayah atau kerana mempertahankan suku bangsa.Kita lihat peperangan Iran Iraq yang berlanjutan beberapa tahun. Kita lihat juga krisis kepimpinan yang berlaku diantara Fatah dengan Hammas, begitu juga yang terjadi diantara puak Taliban dengan pemerintah Afghanistan sehingga mengundang campurtangan barat yang dilihat lebih mendatangkan kerosakan.

Tidak kurang juga yang terjadi di negara kita sendiri dimana pergeseran diantara parti-parti poltik yang dikatakan memperjuangkan islam dilihat terlalu agresif menghentam sesama mereka. Ada yang dilihat juga cuba meraih simpati dari parti yang bukan islam untuk menyokong parti mereka sedangkan dasar mereka dengan begitu jelas tidak ingin menegakan syiar islam itu sendiri. Yang jelas kita hanyalah dijadikan bahan sindiran dan ejekan lantaran kelesuan kita untuk bekerjasama.





Seringkali terpanpang didada-dada akhbar di negara kita tentang gejala sosial yang semakin berleluasa, tidak kiralah yang melibatkan para remaja mahu pun golongan dewasa. Sebilangan besarnya adalah dari kalangan orang islam sendiri. Sebagai contohnya kes-kes sumbang mahram, kes-kes bersekedudukan tanpa nikah, kes-kes pembuangan bayi dan bermacam-macam lagi yang majoritinya dari kalangan kita.



Kehidupan masyarakat kita yang tidak mengenal halal haram juga dilihat sebagai penyumbang persepsi negative terhadap islam malah ada dikalangan kita yang dilihat lebih kebaratan dari barat itu sendiri. Pergaulan bebas sehingga melampaui batas susila, berjudi dan meminum arak, rasuah sana sini yang seolah-olah telah menjadi kelaziman. Semuanya dijuarai oleh kita yang beragama islam. Secara tidak sedar kitalah “pengkhianat” agama sebenarnya.

Walaupun tulisan ini agak keras namun itulah realiti yang kita umat islam hadapi hari ini. “ Kerana nila setitik rosak susu sebelanga” janganlah dek kerana perbuatan segelintir dari kalangan kita menyebabkan kesucian agama kita ternoda.

Marilah kita bangkit menyucikan segala kekotoran yang terpalit pada agama kita. Marilah kita bekerjasama demi membuktikan bahwa islam itu agama perpaduan. Jadikan diri kita contoh ikutan untuk menarik manusia kepada islam agama kebenaran.


"Hampir tiba suatu masa di mana bangsa-bangsa dan seluruh dunia akan datang mengerumuni kamu bagaikan orang orang yang hendak makan mengerumuni talam hidangan mereka". Maka salah seorang sahabat bertanya "Apakah dari kerana kami sedikit pada hari itu?" Nabi s.a.w. menjawab, "Bahkan kamu pada hari itu banyak sekali, tetapi kamu umpama buih di waktu banjir, dan Allah s.w.t. akan mencabut rasa gerun terhadap kamu dari hati musuh-musuh kamu,dan Allah s.w.t. akan mencampakkan ke dalam hati kamu penyakit 'wahan"'. Seorang sahabat bertanya, "Apakah wahanitu hai Rasulullah?" Nabi Muhammad s.a.w. kita menjawab, "Cinta pada dunia dan takut pada mati".
