​My journey of why I would not continue chemo… some people do ok but for me it wasn’t the right decision… I want everyone to know there are choices… do whats right for you.

​Jared and Lisa are passionate about helping others battling cancer!!  We are so proud of them!!!

Here is something I eat when I want to feel like I am eating cereal… many people ask what I eat.. I drink 3 liters of water a day and 64 ounces of juice at least… Then all organic, nothing from a box and have decreased my meat intake and have on occasion… never thought I would eat this instead of boxed cereal but I do, plain or with a little almond milk…you won’t miss your Rice Krispies with this recipe and it fills you up.

​Jared Bucey is a 17-year-old in Arizona who is battling stage 4 Hodgkin’s Lymphoma.  After becoming violently ill with chemotherapy Jared decided that he did not want to continue.  Jared’s mom, Lisa Diacik made the decision that her son could choose how he wanted to heal, she was there to guide him through it.  Jared discontinued Chemo and is now doing natural therapies to overcome his cancer.  With the help of a Naturopath, his family, supporters and his mom, Jared has a much better quality of life and is making progress!!  Jared’s mom has been right by his side and had to quit her job to take care of him and guide him through his protocol and treatments everyday.  They are quite a duo and nothing will stand in their way of healing!

​We are excited to share our experiences this past weekend as we took a journey to Austin, Texas to receive a donation check from some amazing people (Ty and Charlene Bollinger and family).  We were notified after the airing of Episode 1 of The Quest For the Cures…. Continues that Cancer Crackdown would be receiving a portion of proceeds from this series!  We were surprised and excited that they chose our organization and are very thankful.

​Soy is a very unfortunate story.  So many of us have trusted that it’s an excellent source of protein and felt good when choosing soy.  Not only is unfermented soy not good for us, it does harm!!  Soy is everywhere so it pays to check labels and avoid wherever you can.  Various previous reports by a variety of scientist and cancer foundations have encouraged consumption of soy to reduce breast cancer.  There has been a great deal of research that completely disproves these claims.  Memorial Sloan Kettering in New York’s researchers are now warning women that adding soy to your diet will increase the rate of breast cancer cell spreading

The Chinese did not eat unfermented soybeans as they did other legumes such as lentils because the soybean contains large quantities of natural toxins or “anti nutrients”.  A 1998 survey found that the average daily amount of soy protein consumed in Japan was about eight grams for men and seven for women – less than two teaspoons. Americans are consuming amounts far exceeding this quantity.

First among the anti-nutrients in soy are potent enzyme inhibitors that block the action of trypsin and other enzymes needed for protein digestion.These inhibitors are large, tightly folded proteins that are not completely deactivated during ordinary cooking. They can produce serious gastric distress, reduced protein digestion and chronic deficiencies in amino acid uptake. In test animals, diets high in trypsin inhibitors cause enlargement and pathological conditions of the pancreas, including cancer.
