Kushi Institute Cancer Study -This is a Lifechanging Offer!

 

If you have trouble viewing this email Click here

We are looking for people to participate in a Landmark Cancer Study sponsored by Kushi Institute PARTICIPATION IN THE STUDY IS FREE! Have you recently been diagnosed with Breast Cancer or Melanoma, or already received conventional treatment? Are you interested in a healing approach through diet? Kushi Institute (KI) is seeking participants for a clinical pilot study on Caloric Restricted diet, (CR), to affect particular gene expressions in cancer. This study is in conjunction with University of California at Riverside. For two weeks participants will reside, at no charge, at Kushi Institute campus in the beautiful Berkshire Hills, in Becket, Massachusetts. While residing at the campus, participants will attend, at no charge, Kushi Institute's core programs, "Way To Heath" and "Way To Health Plus." These educational programs will teach participants the basics of a macrobiotic dietary lifestyle. During their two week stay participants will receive, at no charge, an individualized macrobiotic diet plan designed by Kushi Institute counselors. Each plan will be directed toward each participant's specific condition and needs. After two weeks, participants will return home to follow the dietary plan designed for them for a six month period. To insure compliance, Kushi Institute counselors will monitor participants on a weekly basis, check for any adverse reactions, and make recommendations or changes in the plan as needed. These weekly check-ins assure that each participant will confidently know how to follow their particular diet with counselor's specific recommendations at home. At the beginning and at the end of the six month period, blood and urine samples will be collected from participants. In the case of melanoma participants, a biopsy of skin lesions is required as well. The samples are needed in order for researchers to compare gene expression (RNA) affected by nutritional change. Participants must meet the following requirements: Diagnosis of breast cancer, or Diagnosis of melanoma with residual skin lesions of disease Either received any type of conventional treatment unsuccessfully, or are newly diagnosed and currently untreated Interested in electing nutritional intervention as the only present treatment of their cancer Active with good performance measurements, able to eat, walk, and travel Participation is voluntary and one may discontinue from the study at anytime. This study does not include medical drugs of any kind. Participation in this study is FREE! For more information on the study, and to apply to be considered a participant, please call Olaf Fischer, Executive Director, at 413-623-5741 x 160 or email olaf@kushiinstitute.org with the subject heading, "CR study."

Love Letter to My Body..

This is a Love Letter to My Body.

I hope this letter speaks to your heart and you get to feel (and see) the changes that have been made in my own and others lives and be inspired to make changes of your one.

Dear Body,

I have realized it is time. I have finally made a decision to make some changes and begin to embrace you, my body as my friend and co-travellor in this journey of life. To see you as my companion if you will. For some time now I have remained silent, becoming ever more conscious of the fact that I have been at war with you. I have punished you harshly, deprived you and scolded you unfairly. I have also begun to see that there is another, a more simple way to move into harmony with myself, to make the peace I have longed for and allow it into my life. This internal change has now been moved into the everyday world where I can see practically that I can live in harmony with myself and nature at at last bring the balance I am seeking.

"Radiant You" To me these word brings forward the qualities of both FUN, EASE and RADIANCE, this is not about denial or being boring. These were the qualities I wanted to focus more on in my life. As a woman I work hard. I give my time freely to my family and friends, often when it comes to me and my needs the tank is empty. Too many times, I miss out completely, mainly as a result from the choices I make for myself. So I have decided, thats it, theres the line in the sand. I am closing the door on this way of living. I want a richness in life, a life that feeds the feminine aspect of me, a life that feeds my mind, body and spirit.In short, a life that nurtures me which then brings my best to offer life, my family, friends and most importantly, MYSELF.

All through this I have wanted to say, I Love You, I Want to Be Your Friend and Chief Supporter in my life. The struggle and the war are finished. I want to thank you for being there for me, and keeping going when it looked a rocky road ahead..Lets sit in the sun and relax for a while together. Phew what a relief!

I saw this journey with my female friends. So I created an online virtual fully supported program called "Radiant You, The Smart Woman's Guide to Weightloss, Balance and Self – Care" program. This is a fully supported virtual, 30 day program with weekly food menus, recipes for the week, ½ hour support call per week and motivational emails daily. There is also unlimited email support during the week to assist my clients to make the necessary changes in their lives.

I offer some testimonials from former clients who have become raving fans:

D, 43 Flight Attendant

When "D" came to me for assistance she was looking to make changes in her eating, weight and wellness. She provided me on day 23 of the program two pictures (see below) that say it all really."D" has decided to remain on the program until she has reached her own personal goals.

"Even though my 30 days is nearly over, I know this is the way for me. I dont even miss

sugar. Never thought I'd say that. I also realise I have probably like alot of people being

rewarding myself with food over the years. Now I think about what I put into my body.

And my body changing is rewarding me instead."

"Radiant You" Program -Day 1 -"D"

"Radiant You" Program – Day 23 - "D"

F, 49, Interior Decorator, Mother of Two.

After having a sister diagnosed with breast cancer and high collesterol readings of her own "F" knew it was time to change. "F" decided to take the "Radiant You"program and a year later has lost 15 kilos. "F" loved the program so much she has maintained this way of eating even when cooking for family and friends (It is doable) and still achieved this success.

Radiant You Program – Day 1 -"F"

Radiant You Program – Six months later -"F"

I should add "F" looks even better today!
