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.

    • GTSBoy on your suggestion on another thread I had a look at those injectors and ended up getting them because of the quality.  Got the expensive ones.  
    • Hey guys been looking everywhere to try and find the correct gtr hood latch support part number but only found the first half and when I search with that number it sends me to an r34. The first part I found was 62515. If anyone could help me with the rest then I’d really appreciate it. Or if there’s some alternative hood latch support that would work even better cause I can’t find any for sale. (Searched on upgarage, partsouq,buyee,rhdjapan) 
    • If you've only done the upper control arms on the rear, AND you have changed their length (by more than about 1mm) to set the camber you want, then you will definitely need/want to install traction arms also. Adjusting the camber arms on their own WILL introduce bump steer and make the car unpleasant to drive. Most owners have no idea that their car could behave infinitely better than what they put up with. I'm not entirely sure what the Stageas need, but I am thinking that unless you have massive front spring rates and pretty soft rear springs, you have waaaay too much rear bar. Oversteer city, in my estimation. Combined with possible excessive bump steer from maladjusted arms, that could be a recipe for nastiness. ATR43SS2 is not a highflow. It is an outright replacement turbo. It's a little bit bigger than the largest highflow profile that Tao does. Probably a solid 300rwkW turbo where the bigger highflows will be about 30-40rwkW less. Nevertheless, we're only talking about ~300 rwkW, which is well within the abilities of the stock ECu to run with a Nistune on board. I would do so without hesitation - and I will be doing so when I get my finger out and actually get the injectors and AFM installed. But, if you would prefer to drop a whole lot more money on the ECU side, then I suspect you're looking at Haltech. The Haltech fanbois here will all spout on about all the available engine protection you can have, that you can't have with the Nistune option. And they're right. But it doesn't really come for free either. You will spend more money on extra sensors and the like, plus the work to install them. If the engine was built and therefore represented a big investment to protect, then I'd say definitely do it. If you view the current (and forever into the future) shortage of replacement engines as something to prompt similar protection, then also, do it. If you see a destroyed RB25 as an opportunity to put in a Mercedes or other V12 (like I kinda do)... then your perception of the risk/reward might differ. These are good injectors. You can also get a "better" set of the same with more flow matching, for more $$. 1000cc is where you will want to be. You will need an R35 AFM and adapter tube if you want to stay with Nistuned stock ECU. Otherwise, if going Haltech, you can ignore. As for intercooler. Just about anything will do. You're only talking about ~300rwkW. Just put a big core in there. Be aware that return flows do add significant pressure drop and will cost power and will make the turbo work harder to achieve the same goals. If you can manage a proper crossflow, do it. I'm keeping my very good return flow because I'm only expecting to be in the ~250rwkW range, and will live with whatever outcome I get.
    • I have a heap that i have collected if you want some authentic ones still. Pm me if your interested!
