View full lesson: ed.ted.com/lessons/can-we-eat-...
William Li presents a new way to think about treating cancer and other diseases: anti-angiogenesis, preventing the growth of blood vessels that feed a tumor. The crucial first (and best) step: Eating cancer-fighting foods that cut off the supply lines and beat cancer at its own game.
Talk by WIlliam Li.

My Dad was a physician. After a long, successful career, he decided to semi-retire and took a 6 figure job with Big Pharma company (I hesitate to mention the name). He traveled around the country speaking to audiences to promote the companies drug line. Being a good doctor, he also interjected what he knew through his own observations. He wondered why some animals (i.e. birds and turtles) lived for many years longer than most humans. The conclusion was that they ate fruit, vegetables, nuts (seeds), and grains. When he started to speak about how eating healthier can, potentially, fend off the need for medicine - he was fired by this company. It was a real eye-opener for him as to the underhandedness of Big Pharma. They do not want doctors telling people how to avoid the need for drugs for as long as possible. Truth.

My dad was diagnosed of blood cancer and he’s 79. When we rushed him into emergency and after all the tests, the doctor told us he has 95% cancer cell and will die in 3 months maximum. But with faith we agreed to put him into chemotherapy despite doctor’s advice we’re wasting our money. With first chemotherapy his cancer cells reduced only to 93% of first 3 weeks. My mum started following instructions of Japanese doctors researches on nutrition diets and she’s been feeding my dad only purple grain rice, veggies soups with lots of mushrooms and fishes, his desserts are dried fruits, and his only drink is coconut mixed with turmeric powder. After 6 months the cancer cells reduced to 1%. 2 days ago I took my dad back to hospital for blood tests and the doctors told us his blood count is now normal, and all they will do is to observe and keep cancer is under control and not coming back. So yes I believe this doctor’s logic of ways to prevent cancer and to starve the cancer cells.

Initially told it was a course of chemo, but after various scans showing it has not reached my bones yet, they decided on radiotherapy. I'm determined to beat it, I started eating as per his book 2 weeks ago, along with sugar free too. When my consultant gave me the news, I said ' I will beat this'.

Wonderful video! Last year my daughter was diagnosed with gallbladder cancer; I dove into cancer research. My findings: alkaline diet to help your body get rid of toxic acid and maintain higher pH (cancer and many diseases establish themselves and thrive in low pH hosts); drink lots and lots of high pH (9 - 10 pH) water to flush toxicity and waste from cells; recognizing that carbohydrates (bread, cake, etc) and sugar is "cancer food" (cancerous cells have many many more glucose receptors; intermediate fasting; and it's important to learn what monoclonal antibody therapies are (there's over 100 of them and are used for many different diseases including cancer). Many of the drugs the speaker in this video is talking about are monoclonal antibodies and he's right, these are such important therapies to utilize. Cancer is a monster and must be fought with everything we can throw at it. Please do your research. My daughter is now cancer free! Good luck everyone.

[@Hveragerthi]

Cancer cannot be starved. Cancer cells ca use glucose, fructose, ketones, lactate, fatty acids and some amino acids for fuel sources. Since some of these are also formed by the body even if you stopped eating, you still would not starve the cancer. And there is no such thing as an alkalizing diet. ALL FOODS metabolize in to acids. Our pH though is not regulated by what we eat or drink. Ironically, the benefits of the so-called "alkaline diet" comes from the acids provided by and produced by the diet. In addition, cancer cells have an alkaline internal pH, often more alkaline than healthy cells, that allows the cancer cells to survive and drives cancer cell glycolysis. Research has also shown that when healthy cells are made excessively alkaline the healthy cells morph in to cancer cells. Cancer actually ALWAYS arises in alkalinity. People keep confusing the localized acidity that occurs around malignant tumors during the much later stages of growth with meaning acidity causes cancer or promotes cancer growth. Neither is true. The only role acidity plays is with metastases as proteolytic enzymes and others such as hyaluronidase are activated by the localize acidity due to a proton build up allowing breakdown of tissues allowing metastases. This IS NOT the same thing as initiation or growth. The vast majority of cancers have been linked to viruses. None of what you mentioned addresses cancer viruses, nor the bacteria, mycotoxins, radiation or in very rare cases parasites that lead to cancer less often than viruses.

[@Hveragerthi]

@@elsitabarnes9965 Alkaline waters do not stop cancer. The alkalinity is neutralized by stomach acid as soon as it reaches the stomach. It has no effect on blood pH. On the other hand, high pH waters actually promote cancer for a variety of reasons. This includes allowing survival of ingested cancer pathogens, increased production of cancer forming nitrates in the stomach and by decreasing methylation. Decreasing methylation leads to numerous health problems including cancer by suppressing immunity, inhibiting DNA repair, interfering with hormone metabolism, leading to further decreases in stomach acidity, increasing inflammatory homocysteine, etc. In addition, cancer cells need an alkaline internal pH to survive and to drive cancer cell glycolysis.

Look up the only 2 x winner, and unshared, Nobel Peace Prize winner Dr. Linus Pauling and two still living orthomolecular doctors that have kicked Big Pharma to the curb and are having miraculous cures with high doses of Vitamin C. Dr Andrew Saul and Dr. Suzanne Humphries and look on TED-MED, Dr Mary Stewart who cured her husband of ALZHEIMERS WITH MCT coconut oil. No one would publish her study and its success, no news media would listen to her and the AMA denied her access to conventions and seminars. This brave critical care infant specialist took to the streets with handouts, ALZHEIMERS Homes AND KZbin. Finally only one news network had her on their show. CBN News, a Christian News network. She has written a book, read it. Wake up America, barbaric non curing medical practices and pill pushing will be a thing of the past, like blood-letting. Spread the info I gave you and this video. Also, look up another orthomolecular doc, named Dr. Jason Fung on diabetes, totally curable and has been for decades. A German doctor was curing diabetes over 60 years ago along with many cancers. Dr. Max Gerson, who by the way when he was getting too well known mysteriously died of arsenic poisoning. Hmmmmm?

I would add that while diet is vital - so is mind management. I would recommend Dr. Caroline Leafs book "cleaning up your mental stress". Her studies have shown that my managing your mind you can lengthen short telomeres which goes against currently accepted science. It is not the only show in town. Hypnotherapy and the type of mindfulness thought by Ellen J. Langer (incidentally she improved the hearing and eyesight of a group of elderly men in one week) are important adjuncts for anyone suffering a serious illness.

[@hutchperales7654]

I started noticing a drastic change in my bowel habit. It becomes frequent and the appearance of my stool is getting flatter/thinner and sometimes very loose. I'm quite heavy because I don't have proper discipline when it comes to my food intake. But considering that I'm already turning 40, I firmly decided on slowing down. First, I cut off drinking soda and replaced it with calamansi/lemon juice. I go to the food market personally to pick up fresh vegetables, fruits and lean meat. Being an Asian, our staple carbohydrate source is rice, so I replaced it with 3 fingers of boiled saba/cardava bananas. Coupled with a serving of stir fried carrots or stringed beans. Plus, a serving of finely chopped pork adobo. I eat avocado when I feel like snacking. I eat these 3 times everyday. I make sure that I have these pre-cooked meals in the fridge and in the freezer always available, heating them conveniently via the microwave oven, so I wouldn't be tempted to go out or order online to splurge on unhealthy food options. This way, I can also save a lot on my food budget. I am taking a food supplement for my liver because I have been diagnosed of having a mild fatty liver. I take a prescribed a medicine that lowers cholesterol in my blood. I am also taking multivitamins to supplement important vitamins and minerals that are lacking in my preferred diet plan. Importantly, I exercise moderately too, every other day. I make sure to rest a lot. Keep everything balanced and don't get too overwhelmed with stress and problems. Make sure to live in a clean home where there are also the presence of trees outside and other plants too. I even grow my own vegetables at home and seedlings of trees that I can possibly sell for other people to get encouraged to plant trees too in their own backyards. We all need to belong in a community where we can breathe fresh air and take care of our lungs. Prayers are a powerful tool as well to empower us spiritually. Our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit. We should take care of this vessel. The key is to live a simple and well-balanced life. Go visit your doctor and have a routine check up regularly, especially your laboratories. I have already been advised to get a colonoscopy soon to rule out colon cancer. I just don't have the means at this point because the procedure is quite expensive. But I'm pretty hopeful to get one very soon, for I know that prevention is always better than cure.

You may want to do some independent research on angiogenesis inhibition. Angiogenesis inhibitors (AIs) have not had a very successful track record. They may help slow cancer growth, but they do not really kill malignant tumors very effectively and will not do squat for some cancers such as leukemias and polycythemia vera as these cancers do not rely on angiogenesis. AIs also fail to address the origin of most cancers, which is in the vast majority of cases from viral infections. To a lesser extent bacterial infections, mycotoxins, radiation and in super rare cases from parasitical infections.

We all should know and tell all the people that we need Doctors like him, we need to keep our love ones here with us, nobody should of die from a disease like cancer, We need true doctors that really care about their patients like this Doctor.

[@terrigilreath5067]

Amen !!!! However there is a percentage of people that will believe everything the doctors tell them & are convinced & nobody can tell them any different. A bit like politics. So try to help, but sometime the only way you can help is just to let them know that you care

One thing everyone tends to forget whilst in the pursuit of convenience and the evolution of highly processed foods is that we are departing from what is real , and true nutrition . Our bodies are more than capable of healing themselves given the right circumstance, the disruption of healing is the toxins we invest into our bodies. It’s very simple , the cure is in the prevention and the prevention is a matter of learning that as human beings we are physiologically designed to consume and thrive off of plant based foods. No other food is more bio-available and nutritious than that of fruits and vegetables , studies and human lives have proven that raw vegans, or plant based diets have tremendous effects on our health , planet , consciousness, and evolution.

[@thechristoscyprus]

Hi all I have Pancreatic Cancer stage 4 but not metastasized to other organs, I was diagnosed March 2014 and was told I have 6 months without chemotherapy. I refused the therapy and I approached my illness with a vegan diet and the help from a holistic health center. im still around and feel fine, I have a lot of weight but feel free from chemicals and feel strong to be able to continue my battle of survival. Organic Fruit, vegetables, nuts, vegetable juices, etc is the best way of living long and healthy lives. Organic can be a bit tricky to get all the time but prefer it when you get a choice. I would appreciate it if anyone with more information or knowledge about improving way of life to Cancer patients to please share.

This video served as my introduction to Ted-ed, and even after four years, I still find myself watching it repeatedly. The notion of using food as a tool to combat cancer is a truly innovative idea that deserves widespread attention, and I am grateful to Dr. William Li and Ted-ed for bringing this concept to light.

All that went away after my first fast. It was unreal. During my second fast for 11 days I even felt more spiritual. I started to believe food is something I didn't even need. Important to do the electrolytes though. Stuff happens when we get older. I am going on 64 now so just trying to help myself and it did help. I have to admit though it is still not easy to start a fast. Still very much a psychological thing to get started. After the 2nd or 3rd day though not so bad.

The greatest cure for all Diseases is Positive Energy. Look at negative energy, the biggest being Stress. Stress plays a part in all diseases such as diabetes, blood pressure, autoimmune, anxiety, skin conditions, asthma, and depression to name a few. If we already understand that negative energy will cause negative health issues, then the reverse must be true. Hope, Faith, and Prayer has healed hundreds of thousands of sicknesses throughout the globe that we call "Miracles". The medical world can never explain why. A positive attitude creates positive energy. Remember, you are the Miracle of Life.

[@mccandlish531]

This verifies everything I have read in several studies, such as an Italian study several years ago that found Italians (as a population) have a lower incidence of certain cancers because of the onions and garlic in their diet. I used this approach successfully in fighting my own cancer without surgery or chemo and radiation therapy. The enzyme that stimulates angeogenesis in most human cancers is Cyclo-Oxygenase-2- (COX-2). Some non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are actually COX-2 re-uptake inhibitors. Block the messenger and you stop the process that grows a blood supply for cancer. The foods and supplements that he lists contribute to the blocking of angeogenesis.
