CANCER KILLER DISCOVERED=DURIAN BELANDA
Guyabano, The Soupsop Fruit (Salifa)
The Sour Sop or the fruit from the graviola tree is a
miraculous natural cancer cell killer 10,000 times stronger
than Chemo.
Why are we not aware of this?
Its because some big corporation want to make back their
money spent on years of research by trying to make a
synthetic version of it for sale.
So, since you know it now you can help a friend in need by
letting him know or just drink some sour sop juice yourself
as prevention from time to time.
The taste is not bad after all. It’s completely natural and
definitely has no side effects.
If you have the space, plant one in your garden.
The other parts of the tree are also useful.
The next time you have a fruit juice, ask for a sour sop.
How many people died in vain while this billion-dollar drug
maker concealed the secret of the miraculous Graviola tree?
Th is tree is low and is called graviola in Brazil , guanabana
in Spanish and has the uninspiring name "soursop" in
English. The fruit is very large and the subacid sweet white
pulp is eaten out of hand or, more commonly, used to make
fruit drinks, sherbets and such.
The principal interest in this plant is because of its strong
anti-cancer effects. Although it is effective for a number of
medical conditions, it is its anti tumor effect that is of most
interest.
This plant is a proven cancer remedy for cancers of all types.
Besides being a cancer remedy, graviola is a broad spectrum
antimicrobial agent for both bacterial and fungal infections,
is effective against internal parasites and worms, lowers high
blood pressure and is used for depression, stress and nervous
disorders.
If there ever was a single example that makes it dramatically
clear why the existence of Health Sciences Institute is so vital
to Americans like you, it's the incredible story behind the
Graviola tree.
The truth is stunningly simple:
Deep within the Amazon Rainforest grows a tree that could
literally revolutionize what you, your doctor, and the rest of
the world thinks about cancer treatment and chances of
survival. The future has never looked more promising.
Research shows that with extracts from this miraculous tree
it now may be possible to:
* Attack cancer safely and effectively with an all-natural
therapy that does not cause extreme nausea, weight loss and
hair loss
* Protect your immune system and avoid deadly infections
* Feel stronger and healthier throughout the course of the
treatment
* Boost your energy and improve your outlook on life
The source of this information is just as stunning: It comes
from one of America 's largest drug manufacturers, the fruit
of over 20 laboratory tests conducted since the 1970's!
What those tests revealed was nothing short of mind
numbing... Extracts from the tree were shown to:
* Effectively target and kill malignant cells in 12 types of
cancer, including colon, breast, prostate, lung and pancreatic
cancer..
* The tree compounds proved to be up to 10,000 times
stronger in slowing the growth of cancer cells than
Adriamycin, a commonly used chemotherapeutic drug!
* What's more, unlike chemotherapy, the compound
extracted from the Graviola tree selectively hunts down and
kills only cancer cells. It does not harm healthy cells! The
amazing anti-cancer properties of the Graviola tree have
been extensively researched-- so why haven't you heard
anything about it? If Graviola extract is as half as promising
as it appears to be-- why doesn't every single oncologist at
every major hospital insist on using it on all his or her
patients?
The spine-chilling answer illustrates just how easily our
health-- and for many, our very lives(!)--are controlled by
money and power.
Graviola--the plant that worked too well
One of America 's biggest billion-dollar drug makers began
a search for a cancer cure and their research centered on
Graviola, a legendary healing tree from the Amazon
Rainforest.
Variou s parts of the Graviola tree--including the bark,
leaves, roots, fruit and fruit-seeds- -have been used for
centuries by medicine men and native Indians in South
America to treat heart disease, asthma, liver problems and
arthritis.
Going on very little documented scientific evidence, the
company poured money and resources into testing the tree's
anti-cancerous properties-- and were shocked by the results.
Graviola proved itself to be a cancer-killing dynamo.
But that's where the Graviola story nearly ended.
The company had one huge problem with the Graviola tree-it's completely natural, and so, under federal law, not
patentable. There's no way to make serious profits from it.
It turns out the drug company invested nearly seven years
trying to synthesize two of the Graviola tree's most powerful
anti-cancer ingredients. If they could isolate and produce
man-made clones of what makes the Graviola so
potent, they'd be able to patent it and make their money
back. Alas, they hit a brick wall. The original simply could
not be replicated. There was no way the company could
protect its profits--or even make back the millions it poured
into research.
As the dream of huge profits evaporated, their testing on
Graviola came to a screeching halt. Even worse, the
company shelved the entire project and chose not to publish
the findings of its research!
Luckily, however, there was one scientist from the Graviola
research team whose conscience wouldn't let him see such
atrocity committed. Risking his career, he contacted a
company that's dedicated to harvesting medical plants from
the Amazon Rainforest and blew the whistle.
Miracle unleashed
When researchers at the Health Sciences Institute were
alerted to the news of Graviola, they began tracking the
research done on the cancer-killing tree. Evidence of the
astounding effectiveness of Graviola--and its shocking coverup--came in fast and furious....
....The National Cancer Institute performed the first
scientific research in 1976. The results showed that
Graviola's "leaves and stems were found effective in
attacking and destroying malignant cells." Inexplicably, the
results were published in an internal report and never
released to the public...
...Since 1976, Graviola has proven to be an immensely potent
cancer killer in 20 independent laboratory tests, yet no
double-blind clinical trials-- the typical benchmark
mainstream doctors and journals use to judge a treatment's
value- -were ever initiated..
A study published in the Journal of Natural Products,
following a recent study conducted at Catholic University of
South Korea stated that one chemical in Graviola was found
to selectively kill colon cancer cells at "10,000 times the
potency of (the commonly used chemotherapy drug)
Adriamycin.. ."
....The most significant part of the Catholic University of
South Korea report is that Graviola was shown to selectively
target the cancer cells, leaving healthy cells untouched.
Unlike chemotherapy, which indiscriminately targets all
actively reproducing cells (such as stomach and hair cells),
causing the often devastating side effects of nausea and hair
loss in cancer patients.
...A study at Purdue University recently found that leaves
from the Graviola tree killed cancer cells among six human
cell lines and were especially effective against prostate,
pancreatic and lung cancers... Seven years of silence
broken--it's finally here!
A limited supply of Graviola extract, grown and harvested
by indigenous people in Brazil , is finally available in
America .

how to use it--is included in Beyond Chemotherapy:

monthly Health Sciences Institute Member's Alert puts in
your hands today cures the rest of America --including your
own doctor(!)--is likely to find out only ten years from now.
--------------------------------------------------The 13 Most Powerful Super Foods
Why Are They So Super?
Ask five nutritionists to rate the 13 most powerful foods and
you'll get five different lists, but many of the selections will
overlap. Why? Because every food provides something
different: Some are a rich source of protein or fiber but void
of many vitamins and minerals, while others contain diseasefighting phytonutrients, vitamins and minerals, but no
protein. The trick, claim experts, is to get a variety of the
best foods. The following 13 power foods are a good place to
start.
Avocados
Sure they're high in fat, but avocados contain healthful
monounsaturated fat, which has been linked to a reduced
risk of cancer, heart disease, and diabetes. "Avocados aid in
blood and tissue regeneration, stabilize blood sugar, and are
excellent for heart disorders," says Ed Bauman, Ph.D.,
director of Bauman College . They're loaded with fiber (11 to
17 grams per fruit) and are a good source of lutein, an
antioxidant linked to eye and skin health.
Apples
"An apple a day really does keep the doctor away," says
Jonny Bowden, Ph.D., C.N.S., author of The 150 Healthiest
Foods on Earth. Apples are loaded with the powerful
antioxidants quercetin and catechin, which protect cells from
damage - that means a reduced risk of cancer and
cardiovascular disease, especially if you eat the skin.
Research shows that the apple peel contains five times more
polyphenols than the flesh. Apples and their skins pack a lot
of fiber too (about twice that of other common fruits,
including peaches, grapes, and grapefruit), which may help
fight the battle of the bulge.
Blueberries
Antiaging superstars, blueberries are loaded with
antioxidants, especially anthocyanins, which have been
shown to improve vision and brain function. Studies show
that eating blueberries slows impairments in motor
coordination and memory that accompany aging. These little
berries also reduce inflammation, which is inextricably
linked with virtually every chronic disease from Alzheimer's
and Parkinson's, to diabetes and heart disease. Other studies
show that blueberries have much greater anticancer activity
than other fruits.
Cabbage
In the vegetable world, the Brassica genus reigns supreme,
and the cabbage is the most impressive of the lot. Brassica
vegetables (including broccoli, bok choy) contain compounds
called indoles, which have been shown to reduce the risk of
cancer dramatically. "Eating cabbage more than once a
week cut men's colon cancer odds by 66 percent," says
Bauman. "Cabbage also stimulates the immune system, kills
bacteria and viruses, and is a good blood purifier." If you go
for the red variety, you'll also get a healthy dose of
anthocyanins (the same pigment molecules that make
blueberries blue), another powerful antioxidant with an
anticancer punch.
Fish and Fish Oil
Eating fish helps cut the risk of heart disease, cancer,
Alzheimer's, stroke, diabetes, and arthritis. The fatty
varieties may also help alleviate depression. The American
Heart Association recommends that adults eat at least two
fish meals per week, especially wild salmon, herring, and
sardines, because those varieties provide the most hearthealthy omega 3s. Avoid mercury-containing varieties like
shark, swordfish, king mackerel, tilefish, and albacore tuna,
says Roberta Anding, M.S., R.D., national spokesperson for
the American Dietetic Association. (Chunk light tuna is
okay.)
Garlic
Research shows that garlic lowers total cholesterol and
triglyceride (blood fat) levels, helping prevent clogged
arteries. "Two to three cloves a day cut the odds of
subsequent heart attacks in half for heart disease patients,"
says Bauman. "Garlic also tops the National Cancer
Institute's list of potential cancer-preventive foods." Whole
baked garlic helps detoxify the body of heavy metals like
mercury (from fish) and cadmium. Garlic also acts as an
antibacterial and antiviral, boosting resistance to stressinduced colds and infections. Can't stand garlic breath?
Chew on a sprig of parsley.
Mushrooms
Used for centuries in Eastern medicine, mushrooms have
powerful effects on the immune system - especially the
maitake, shiitake, and reishi varieties. "Mushrooms such as
maitake help prevent and treat cancer, viral diseases, high
cholesterol, and high blood pressure," says Bauman. In fact,
mushrooms are used as an adjunctive cancer treatment
throughout Asia because of their ability to counteract the
toxic effects of chemotherapy and radiation while
simultaneously shrinking tumors. What's more, Japanese
researchers have found that regularly eating shiitake
mushrooms lowers blood cholesterol levels up to 45 percent.
Almonds
Almonds are loaded with fiber and monounsaturated fat,
both of which have been shown to lower cholesterol.
According to the Food and Drug Administration, eating 1.5
ounces of most nuts, including almonds, as part of a diet low
in saturated fat and cholesterol may reduce the risk of heart
disease. And even though almonds are relatively high in fat
and calories, studies show that eating almonds can actually
help with weight loss (their protein, fiber, and
monounsaturated fats provide the feeling of fullness,
preventing overeating).
Eggs
The best protein source on the planet, eggs consistently
outrank milk, beef, whey, and soy in the quality of protein
they provide. In addition to containing all nine essential
amino acids, eggs are loaded with nutrients. "And for God's
sake, eat the yolks," says Bowden. People avoid the yolks
because they fear cholesterol, but egg yolks contain choline,
which helps protect heart and brain function and prevents
cholesterol and fat from accumulating in the liver.
Flaxseeds
Loaded with alpha-linolenic acid, an essential fatty acid that
helps reduce inflammation, flaxseed has been used for
centuries for medicinal and health reasons. Gandhi himself
proclaimed, "Wherever flaxseed becomes a regular food
item among the people, there will be better health." Bauman
adds, "The seed itself has terrific nutritional value, very
usable protein, tremendous fatty acids, and minerals like
magnesium, potassium, and zinc." Additionally, they're a
great source of fiber.
Pomegranates
Pomegranates have up to three times the antioxidants of red
wine and green tea - and the juice has been shown to reduce
artery-clogging plaque, which in turn prevents heart disease
and stroke. Research shows that long-term consumption of
pomegranate juice may also help slow aging and protect
against cancer.
Red Wine
A small amount of any kind of alcohol each day does your
heart good by increasing HDL cholesterol and reducing the
risk of blood clots. "Red wine also contains powerful
antioxidants, reservatrol and saponins, which may provide
additional cardiovascular benefits," says Anding. Resist a
refill, however: More than one drink daily has been linked to
high blood pressure.
Dark Chocolate
When it comes to chocolate, bitter is better - at least in terms
of health. The benefits of chocolate come from flavonols and
antioxidants (the same disease-fighting chemicals found in
cranberries, apples, strawberries, and red wine). The caveat:
Only real cacao contains flavonols, so look for chocolate that
boasts a high percentage of cacao (60 percent or more). Dark
chocolate also has fewer calories than other varieties, and
when eaten in moderation, it lowers unhealthy LDL
cholesterol and prevents plaque from building up in your
arteries.
