British Journal of Nutrition

In 2019, the BJN published that "Patterns of Cancer Are Changing" and it is increasing at epidemic levels. They are aware that nutrition influences key cellular and molecular processes that characterises cancer.

Although the journal hasn't mentioned the nutritional deficiencies that people are suffering from. They know so little about positive interventions as far as nutrition is concerned, why is that? Doctors that see "cancer" patients don't study nutrition for a long enough time period.

As one eminent doctor once said to me when she came to me for help, "They teach us to cut up bodies but they don't teach us how to heal emotions". 

As far as their nutrition training is concerned.  20 years ago doctors were given 2 hours training in nutrition during their medical studies. The last time that I looked they were receiving four hours training.

I began investigating nutrition in the 90s and it began with one little book with a mass of medical studies cited in it. What spurred me on at that time was seeing an Indian palmist in London at a major healing exhibition and he saw mineral deficiencies written in my hand. It has been a long journey ever since.



How often do you meet medics that are either underweight or overweight? How then can they teach their patients about the appropriate nutrition for their health conditions and systems of their bodies?

One of the first things that I ask people when looking at a health case is "Have you been tested for nutritional deficiencies?". When given the opportunity, I then look at their menus and what they eat.

What I found in my research is that the five a day that the NHS promote is not sufficient. Plus many people think they're eating healthy when in fact they are not getting enough of the minerals that their bodies require for optimum performance. People tend to eat what they like rather than what is healthy for them nutritionally. Different health conditions and systems in the body also require different nutrients to keep the body functioning properly.
