In the current cancer pandemic, we need to look much deeper, to take responsibility for our own choices and lifestyle.
The good news is we can make a change, itās up to every single one of us (genes only account for 5% according to Bruce Lipton).
Cancer the very word, the very diagnosis has us frightened, scared, terrified, as if it is different to other dis-eases.
First letās look at cancerā¦what exactly is it?
In very simple terms it is cells growing āout of controlā, so they no longer have any boundaries, no idea of when to stop growing. It is like something either got switched (gas pedal down) on or got switched off (foot off the brake). In oncology terms, we call these either oncogenes or tumour suppressor genes. Oncogenes stimulate growth, the tumour suppressor genes, suppress growth.
When I was doing my PhD (pancreatic cancer) I was deep into the oncogene know as RAS. Was this gene mutated in pancreatic cancers and if so, did certain drugs slow down the growth of these cancers, IF we blocked the out come of RAS.
My PhD resulted in a negative outcome, there was no outcome in the status of RAS and the drugs tested.
But as I came to the end of my PhD, by that time I was working as a health physiologist for a health insurance company and then getting home to write up my thesis, I was dis-heartened, I wanted to just quit writing up my PhD, who was this thesis going to help anyway? But during that time, we had web search engines like āAsk Jeevesā ;) I remember typing in pancreatic cancer and vitamin Cā¦..oh my goodness, why did I not do this 4 years ago? Why did not do this before I signed up for my PhD?
Out popped up the name of a āquack doctorā in New York, that is what he was being ācalledā back then. I will never forgot that very moment, I remember exactly where I was sitting and even can visualise typing in each word. Dr Nicholas Gonzalez, but he was not a quack, he was going down the road less travelled, the road that can lead to you losing your āreputationā in the world of medicine.
My whole world was kind of turned upside down, did I just waste 7 years of education? But I was kind of super excited, as there was an answer to cancer, but not where I thought it was, not in the genes. But surely if this was the case, my professor, my mentor, my supervisors would know about it. Surely?
This got me motivated to finish writing up my PhD and to say my viva was ātoughā is an under-statement. Especially when I was urged not to go down that road (the. road less travelled), it is quackery and I would lose my reputation, which reputation? I had already lost āone reputationā for not following through with an arranged marriage.
A year following the completion of my PhD, I ended up, as the power above would have it, living in New York studying a Masters in nutrition and I got to meet Dr Nicholas Gonzalez. He was doing work that was ānot possibleā according to my previous life. I was now not only studying all this, I was also working in leukaemia research at the New York Blood Centre part time (which was very main stream but medical research is valuable and someone had to pay for the Masters.
During that time, it became clear to me that the environment which the cells are bathed in is vital. The physical environment, the mental-emotional environment, the spiritual environment (I later discovered Bruce Lipton, whose book covers this phenomenon of the cells in a petri dish "Biology Of Belief" said this was epigenetic without calling it epigenetic).
I was growing pancreatic cancer cells in a petri-dish, I was growing cancer cells in immuno-deficient mice, I was solely focused on a GENE. But what about the environment that the cells were grown in? What about the state of the immuno deficient mice? Where they stressed? Who was handling them? What about the patient from which the pancreatic cancer cells were taken to be grown in a dish? How was that person doing? How was their toxic burden? What was their story? How was their nutritional intake, their mental intake their spiritual life?
You see, I was so focused on one gene but ..what about the WHOLE?
To live in New York and study in nutrition in 2000 was I suppose the equivalent of being on speed every day. Nearly every weekend there was a famous nutrition doctor speaking at some conference on NYC. I tried to get to every single one, as I wanted to know more, and I was confused, if what they were teaching/sharing was true, why does every one not know about this about cancer? There must be something I was missing, surely they could not all be so-called 'quacks'.
In those two years of my Masters, I learned way more than I could have ever imagined, there was anger, frustration, tears, injustice, euphoria, disbelief, connecting with tribe of like minded individuals, but every single conference, every single lecture on the Masters course had science to back up what they were teaching/sharing.
There is Science and there is SCIENCE.
How many of us are look into these aspects of our lives when we are faced with a dis-ease?
I will be sharing over the week about what was shared at the conference, too much to share in one sitting. š
However, it is due to Dr Nicholas Gonzalez I am here on this FB page, working with clients, growing a team, running a School, sharing his work. There is no quackery, the science is there, it just takes an 'open mind' to look out side of the 'science' to the other SCIENCE.
For those who want to read ahead as you have loved ones with cancer or you may have cancer, here are some materials to look into:
Dr Nicholas Gonzales and his foundation have a series of books available at

There are short audios for some of these books that you can listen to for free.
This site gives you details of the clinicians who work with his protocol.
