An Interview with Dr. Tom Wu N.M.D.
Cancer, Diabetes, & Heart Disease can be overcome through diet. Dr. Tom Wu’s breakthroughs with Cancer & Diabetes have earned him the “Remarkable Contribution Award” from the American Cancer Society and the “World Famous Doctor Award” from The United Nations.
Jeff : Dr. Wu, you have helped many thousands of people use “Readily Available Foods” to help win the battle against cancer, various forms of heart disease, and even helping people with type 1 & 2 diabetes to stabilize their blood sugar naturally. You use many tools, but mostly it is about Simple Foods. Often times you give seminars to Western Doctors in Europe in groups of over 1000. Do you find that these European Western Doctors are receptive to your methods given you have achieved such phenomenal results? Is there any resistance ?
Dr. Tom Wu : Most of the time doctors are receptive to what we are saying. We don’t force them to believe, but we show them the results we’ve been having. I tell them to try the program for 3 months and provide them a scientific presentation, which proves that all of these diseases come from the wrong food. Fried food causes blockage in the arteries, bad circulation, cholesterol, and then Heart disease. They realize these things. Instead of giving a cholesterol lowering drug, we stop them from eating greasy foods. Many of the Doctors find a good result. We use cleansing foods, which are very high in phytochemicals. These are good for cleansing out the cholesterol and homocysteine, which are the main risk factors for heart disease. Phytochemicals are nature’s cleansing agents for ridding the body of arterial plaque. They must come from the food that God has provided us within its natural state, complete with its co-factors and co-enzymes.
Jeff : Let’s talk about helping to win the battle against Cancer. You’ve consulted a significant number of people in using “Readily Available Foods” to help win the fight against: Lung cancer, Breast cancer, and even Pancreatic cancer, which is known as being a certain death sentence. Your dietary guidelines have achieved success where most have failed. America spends over 200 Billion dollars annually on Cancer treatment and over 50 billion annually into researching a cure, but you seem to understand the root cause. What is the most important factor for humanity to conquer this epidemic disease Cancer ?
Dr. Tom Wu : Cancer is usually caused by a bad lifestyle. Smoking, drinking, going to bed at a late hour, not getting enough exercise, living in a stressful environment, and above all else - eating the wrong foods. All of these things add to the risk factors for cancer.
In my medical practice people come from all over the world to see me for cancer. I tell them I don’t “treat” any kind of Cancer. I don’t treat any kind of disease. I only change the food they eat. It depends on what kind of cancer to say what kind of foods will work. They need to blend certain foods to break open the phytochemicals in the fiber of fruits and veggies. Then I will also give them Qigong and Breathing exercises to help relive the stress. Cancer is also an emotional disease. So the Qigong really helps. Conventional treatment uses 3 invasive methods, which are surgery, radiation, and drugs. These often damage the body so much that the patient suffers beyond repair, but I never advise the patient to refuse western medicine. It is a personal choice. In my practice often times a special high dose of Phytochemicals, from natural foods, can often relive the problem. Lets take breast cancer for instance. Usually if you supply the body with enough phytochemicals that contain Indole-3-Carbinol (I3C), which is plentiful in the cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, & spinach the body will take this and fight the cancer. It is a fierce fighter of breast cancer. If they eat this food everyday as much as they can in a semi-raw state of 108 degrees Fahrenheit, it will be a fierce fighter against the cancer. This temperature will increase the absorption and can be achieved by blending the ingredients in a high powered blender. Most important is to use a high powered, 3 horse power blender, to break out the phytochemicals which are binded to the fibers. This abundance of phytochemicals allows the blood to be cleansed and stimulate the enzyme phase 2 inside each cell. A detoxification enzyme inside each cell, which is called enzyme phase 2. These enzymes need phytochemicals to stimulate their function. Most of the time the diet we eat of cooked and refined foods does not possess them... and for this reason the immune system does not function well. That’s the main reason why people get cancer.
Our dietary methods of guiding patients with cancer has been successful in a signifigant number of cases. The patient goes on a specialized smoothie diet with various vegetables, fruits and their accompanying seeds, and common garden herbs which are known to be rich in phytochemicals. It all gets thrown in the blender. The type of cancer the person has will dictate which foods are chosen.
Jeff : Food cures have been known about since the time of Hippocrates. How can a simple household food reverse an epidemic like Children’s Autism ? Also please talk about what foods will actually stabilize blood sugar naturally for people who were born with Type 1 Diabetes ?
Dr. Tom Wu : To heal the body we need to eat a variety of foods. Not just one. We need every variety, because each food has nutrients that other foods do not have. For example, people that have Autism, and this one is easy to prevent. Many times... Autism is caused by vaccinations or flu shots, which contain mercury. When these old age people get the flu shot they also get the mercury. Surely this mercury can cause Autism and cause Alzheimer’s disease too. But in the food Cilantro, lies the solution. The Chinese use Cilantro as a chelating agent to help bring out the Mercury from the body and take care for the problem. But it’s not only the Cilantro that is needed, you need to have a total lifestyle change and a high powered blender to extract all the phytochemicals from the vegetables.
For Type 1 Diabetes, I will use Swiss chard. It is also called red chard and green chard. These are very common vegetables. If people eat these kinds of vegetables everyday, they will improve their diabetes naturally. Swiss Chard and other specific vegetables contain a high amount of phytochemicals that are “Insulin-like”. With type 1 diabetes, the pancreas does not function, but you can use certain vegetables to regenerate the pancreas and help it secrete insulin again. You can also use certain Indian Herbs like Gymnema Sylvestre and Cumin seed, as these herbs can help rejuvenate the pancreas function to normal. If a high powered blender is used to make a smoothie including these foods then there is a good chance the Pancreas will eventually produce a normal supply of insulin and take care of type 1 naturally.
Type 2 diabetes it’s what we call a metabolic syndrome because it is usually accompanied by high blood pressure, overweight, insomnia, and cardiovascular disease. Sometimes it is called X-syndrome because it comes with so many problems. Type 2 diabetics have enough insulin, but it doesn’t work. This is called “insulin resistance”, and it too has a natural solution. What you have to do is add 3 or 4 cucumbers to the diet per day and then the insulin function will begin to improve. When the insulin function is restored, then the weight will naturally come down and the sugar will naturally come down.
Jeff : Most people are shocked when you tell them you’re 67 years old. I’ve never seen anyone your age with such a radiant shine to their skin and no wrinkles. You have said that “Juicing” fruits and vegetables actually accelerates the aging process. Why does juicing not prevent, and what makes BLENDING the superior option for any nutrition program ?
Dr. Tom Wu : That’s a good question. The juicer is excellent if you want more vitamins, minerals, and enzymes. But, this doesn’t prevent the body from getting older. To prevent aging and chronic disease we need the phytochemicals. When you use the juicer you do not get the anti-aging nutrients at all. Nearly all phytochemicals exist in the skin, fibers, and seeds. When you juice you throw these parts away. Some people use a blender which is less than 3 horsepower and the results have not been the same. A regular blender tastes good, but you don’t break out all the phytochemicals.
Jeff : You also put the seeds in the blender right? Even the avocado seed !
Dr. Tom Wu : Yes I do !. When I eat the avocado I always eat the seed. It is packed with very good nutrients. It has the life force. It is a very high Qi food ! It’s also the highest in soluble fiber. This soluble fiber binds to the fat and excess cholesterol. Then we can lower cholesterol and improve heart function naturally. We can improve the blood circulation by pulling out all the fatty deposits in our circulatory system with the soluble fiber of the avocado seed. Soluble fiber is very difficult to get in our diet. Oatmeal has some, but it cannot compare with the avocado seed. Any heart disease patient must eat the avocado including the seed.
