cancer dietary?

Hello,
   I am new to this site and recently was blindsided by a testicular cancer diag.  I went in for what I thought was a hernia from a previous physicians diag during a comercial physical and it turned out to be cancer.  Fortunately it was contained and a very treatable type (if further treatment is even needed at this point).  Getting to the point now-does anyone know of a site that deals with diets that are more able to build ones immune system to fight against the rogue cells?  I do not smoke and I do work out regularly but if a diet change is necessary (eating cardboard anyone?) I am more than willing to do what it takes.  I am a blessed man.  I have been given a reprieve-I want to honor this and do what it takes.
   Another note and then I will sign off.  IF YOU EVEN THINK THERE IS A LUMP ON YOUR TESTIES-GET IT CHECKED.   Even if you do not abuse your self with junk food and the like.  If you have had or have a retracted testicle-get it checked.  My testicle was retracted and several physicians did not even think of checking out the reason why.  My surgeon was excellent and explained that the cases of this type of cancer are much greater statisically with a retracted testi that non retracted ones.

Thank You for your answer. I appreciate your insight.  I will continue on with researching but could you tell me what the Gerason Diet is or where I can get some info on it?

There are MANY things one can do to improve his/her diet, especiall when it comes to cancer. In fact most cancers are due to the fact that we eat such ****. It is the things IN the foods, the things which we cannot see. There are MANY altered food flavourings/ingredients that have been so modified and that are WAY not good for us to eat.
One good supplement to go after CANCER CELLS that are ALWAYS left behind is called: Paw Paw Cell Reg. The best thing you can do is to re-establiah your immune system, don't do chemo/radiation. Not only do these cause cancer but, they do such permenant damage to you, it cannot be undone!

So MY cancer diet; no or little meat (I love meat, so when I do eat it I buy from a local farm coop that specializes in: grass fed, organic, anibiotic/additive free)
- little or no dairy including cheeses
- mostly raw veg/fruit organic if you can get it. OR VERY lightly steamed.
- fresh juice: carrot, ginger, apple, parsley, celery, concord grape

There are many a website out there dedicated to diets, I mostly follow the Gerason diet.

Goodluck to you
Elizabeth
