My ahhh doctor gives me some sometimes aswell. and my neighbor gives me hose. loljkswat.

seriously but. dislike cancer. have had it in the family and i have spoken to my doctor and done ALOT of research on how to prevent it as i am at a higher risk of liver cancer (hep c positive) and i am glad i have done the research.

it is hard to keep on top of everything but just living a healthy lifestyle and diet. i don't drink alcohol, take headache tablets or other unnecessary tablets, have never done hard drugs. my only problem is i prob have a few to many diet cokes but i am cutting down on them alot now i dont work fulltime.

basically i live by the fact that i could be unlucky enough to get it, but if i do, ill fight the f**k out of it and live my life best i can.

terry, any tips on prevention that can be easily Incorporated into a daily lifestyle?

Hi Gus,

For general liver health > eating globe artichoke, drinking dandelion tea, taking milk thistle or St Marys thistle is wise + abstain from alcohol and animal fats as best you can

For liver cancer prevention > getting some 5mg Melatonin sublingual tablets (suck 2-3 under tongue at bedtime for a couple of minutes before swallowing)

That's all I know ATM > need to research some more for you.

Look up Gus how many cancers that melatonin can prevent or improve on!

Yes the most common known usage is to help circadian rhythms of sleep and prevent jet lag; but there's so much more...

Get a personal account with Golden Glow and order Blue Roc Melatonin 5mg Sublingual @ $19/90 lozenges

In your daily diet, get some "apricot kernels" from an Asian Grocery shop. They look like almond kernels - but they are not the same.

They must be "apricot kernels" and have up to 10/day. They are cheap.

They contain Vit B17 or Laetrile which helps to prevent cancer in a broad spectrum fashion.

Hunza people live very long lives with exceedingly low rates of cancer - and part of their diet is eating the apricot kernels from the apricots they export.

Hope this helps...

what's the chinese name for these "apricot kernels"?

i'd be concerned about cyanide though.

Even almonds contain arsenic.

The cyanidins in apricot kernels are too small when you consider that one should only take enough kernels to reflect how much fruit one would have in any one day.

But more of course if cancer is nigh > without going crazy on them.

A bit of a long watch this one but it goes into the vitamin B17 thing a bit more

So to prevent...

Skin Cancer > taking melatonin

Liver Cancer > taking milk thistle and apricot kernels

Prostate Cancer > taking pumpkin seeds

Bladder Cancer > taking cranberries

Bowel Cancer > taking willow bark

Stomach Cancer > taking neem

Why do I not have any money left in the bank? > Become a Naturopath > A legit Dealer >_< lol

...and if I were a girl...

Breast Cancer > I'd take tofu

Ovarian Cancer > resveratrol in red grapes

Cervical Cancer > vaccine or chaste tree bark (with premature cellulite as a marker)

Umm...

Pancreatic Cancer > a painful one > I'll have to look that one up. It killed Steve Jobs and Patrick Swayzey eh?

A few mentions on melatonin here.

There's a lot of information out there on the supposed link between good melatonin levels in the body and reduced risk of cancer; does this mean there's a link between the natural sunlight we get (or are supposed to get) and natural melanin / melatonin production, and therefore reduced risk of cancer?

Do people that do shift work or spend inordinate amounts of time indoors need to take melatonin supplements as a preventative measure?

Frustrating for those of us who read the papers / watch TV advising us to slip slop slap, stay indoors etc but so many of us apparently are vitamin D deficient; so go outdoors and make sure you get some sun; just not too long... and so on.

Yes limited sunlight & graveyard shifts reduce one's immune system through impaired D3 and Melatonin production. Even reflected sunlight is good. But most window films are not so.

Supplementation of 10-20mg/day according to Hyperhealth prevents...

Cancer of...

Brain

Breast

Colon

Endometrium

Kidney

Liver

Lung

Ovary

Prostate

of various types as well as Melanomas

I didn't know that there were over 6 different types of breast cancer till 3 yes ago.

SAUer and family man "portaz" has just been told that he's suffering from a brain cancer (albeit slow growing) called a "glioma".

Are there any Drs here on SAU who can comment??? New innovations???

The famous oncologist Prof Chris O'Brien contracted a glioma but alas, is no longer with us.

I had a 6 month period where I had extremely low vitamin d deficiency from pretty much never being outside for long.

I got sick sooooo much and it actually started effecting my nervous system. I just felt out of it, like an epic hangover, for a month or so and I had trouble understanding people and processing what they said when they spoke to me. Memory went out the window, I pretty much had "brain fog".

It was actually really worrying for me at the time because i didn't know what was wrong. After a heap of blood and neurological tests, i just had to get out in the sun and take supplements and I came good within a month or less.

Would need more info. Gliomas range from grade 1 through 4, each with vastly different prognosis. Unfortunately there are no new innovations. The current treatment is resection (removal via surgery) followed by radiation therapy and chemo (temozolomide)

I can recommend a great surgeon if he is in sydney.

"Jon Mannah's death linked to peptides" reads the Tele front page.

Q. Could this be so? Can it happen to you?

On the info I have...

A. "Link" yes - "Cause" of Hodgkins lymphoma no

A. High protein diets as well as supplements are known to accelerate cancers rather than cause them. Peptides by my old definition are chains of amino acids, ranging from 2-49. Over 50 in a chain, and you have a protein.

A. Synthetically produced peptides I don't have a clue about, regarding acceleration of rogue cell production or apoptosis; or even a conversion of a benign cell into a malignant one.

Moral. If one contracts cancer, switch from any high protein diet to one primarily of fruit and veg.

I hate working on Oncology wards. I worked on one and ran for the hills- too much effort gowning and gloving for pretty much every room but it seems you can't escape them. Most general wards I've worked on are full of people on Chemo and Cardiac patients.

I've lost heaps of patients to Cancer, I only remember those with an interesting story.

One was a 16/17 year old and the other was a man who's wife did not leave his side. She pretty much moved into the hospital for 6 months so we had put them in a private room and set up a little space for her to continue working.

This man was a non smoker, non drinker and loved organic foods. I don't think I ever saw him eat/drink anything else but fruits, veg and water. He didn't even own a car, he rode a push bike!

They say smoking causes Cancer, and had photos of that 70's porn star looking guy plastered all over the packets but they forgot to mention that the guy in the pictures actually died of radiation (before radiation therapy was perfected) what they fail to mention is its actually WORST to inhale second hand smoke because the chemicals in cigarettes become most active and dangerous at cooler temperatures.

    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
    • What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
