In this blog I will try to respond to your questions by first addressing basic nutritional parameters and in particular cancer-preventtive nutrional guidelines.
One of the most important principles I try to teach my patients is that our bodies are constantly in a state of change, rebirth and growth. As such, you need to provide a constant supply of ingredients which allows the body to heal and rebuild itself.
Take a moment and let the following sink in: (Regeneration implies Turnover time)
Our cones and rods in our eyes regenerate every 24 to 48 hours
Our lining of the intestines regenerate every 3 days
Our lung alveoli regenerate every 8 days
Our tongue taste buds regenerate every 10 days
Our bone cells regenerate every 2 weeks
Our skin regenerates every ~30 days
Our fingernails grow at a rate of 0.1 mm/day
Our toenails grow at a rate of 1mm/month
Our red blood cells regenerate every 4 months
Our liver regenerates every 8 months
Our nerves regenerate every 7-8 months
Fat storage cells regenerate every 8 to 10 years
Therefore, we do need to consider how and what we eat. One of the greatest pleasures is one derived from eating. How amazing would it be if we can combine that pleasure with the knowledge of what we eat and how it can allow us to regenerate.
"Let thy food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food" (Hippocrates)
I truly believe that this was always meant to emphasize the importance of nutrition to prevent or potentially cure disease.
Please post your questions and comments. I will address them to the best of my knowledge as well as available scientific data to support the advice given.
