Many often quote the idea that 'An Alkaline body cannot support cancer' - yet when we look back at the research that this originates from - it is from a Nobel Prize winner who actually didn't say that at all! Recently, I found a Doctor that agrees and is currently impressing me with his wealth of experience in using natural methods to heal serious illness - check him out.
The Nobel Prize winner was Otto Warburg and he specifically focused on oxygen/metabolism issues at the cellular level - including in relation to tumours. I was a bit confused when I began my own research into (other people's work on) cancer about 10 years ago because I kept finding people claiming that he proved that cancer cannot exist in an alkaline body, yet when I attempted to dig deeper, I would always find that his work made other conclusions, but not that one.
In any case, it is (to my understanding) a vegan diet that primarily creates an alkaline body and it is true that a vegan diet is particularly healthy and helpful for cancer patients - so the lifestyle choices that are advisable remain somewhat the same anyway.
Dr. Darren Schmidt
Recently I have been listening a bit to Dr. Darren Schmidt who is a chiropracter who has focused on nutrition since 1998. My own experience in recent years has been that it is chiropracters who consistently are able to demonstrate the highest level of general knowledge regarding practical and successful healing of the body. This is due to them often having a non-drug approach, plus their training having typically involved many years of study of anatomy and nutrition - as compared to the fraction of that time which general medical doctors are given. By learning about the body and the biochemistry involved, rather than learning which drugs to give people - they are inherently closer to finding the REAL way to heal people, as opposed to just knowing how to suppress symptoms.
In this video, he describes the mechanism of acidosis and how to reverse it using nutritional changes, specifically by putting the body into a fat burning state called ketosis.
This information is of use to everyone, but particularly cancer patients, since when the body is in ketosis, the cancer cells starve, since they (unlike healthy cells) require sugar and cannot be sustained during the fat burning process of ketosis.
