Kiggundu warned head teachers to be vigilant when buying grained food for students because they may be exposed to this dangerous toxic. He also says that Ugandans should not mistake Hybrid seeds to be genetically modified seeds from farmers and market. Dr. Andrew Kiggundu says that hybrid seeds have been on market for so long especially for commercial farmers. He asked members of parliament to pass the National Biotechnology and Biosafety bill 2012 to enable Banana farmers access disease resistant bananas which are still laying at research centers in the country.

The doctor rejected claims that GMOs are on the market though South Africa has been using this technology for  some years.

On receiving the students and their heads, the director Uganda cancer institute, Dr. Jackson Oryem said the misery at the institute should be shared by all of the citizens instead of the institute and the patients and on this matter he emphasized awareness as a key factor if cancer is to be scaled down. He further challenged the population to always check up for cancer among other silent disease to avoid ending up in hospital when the situation is worse.

The students also donated a number of items to the institute and also engaged in community work around the institute as they were accompanied by the cranes head coach Micho and singer Moze radio.

However, the director Uganda cancer institute, Dr. Jackson Oryem says that though government has injected more efforts in fighting cancer, it’s the people’s responsibility to change their lifestyle for them to avert catching the disease but also calls for the enactment to the cancer bill that is currently laying before parliament to help regulate funding, provide equitable services among other factors.

Non communicable disease in Uganda contribute to 63% of deaths and 80% in developing countries with cancer being among them. World Cancer Day 2016 will be marked world wide on 4th February under the theme ‘We can. I can’

A human body can have fats ranging between 50 to 200 billion fat cells distributed around the body. For most females (women), a high percentage of the subcutaneous fat tissue surrounds the areas of the breasts, waist, hips and buttocks.

However, most males have a high percentage of fats distributed around the chest, abdomen and buttocks.

In the Republic of Uganda fat women are considered beautiful, while men with fats around the abdomen (men with big berries) are perceived as wealthy.

However, Doctor David Sali, a prominent medical practitioner in town says that fats deposited along the abdomen cavity makes hormones and chemicals, which increases the risk of diseases like colorectal cancer, high blood pressure, diabetes, stroke, cancer of the pancreas, breast and prostate.

Tongue piercing is not safe because the tongue is an extremely vascular organ, which means that it has loads of blood vessels.

A tremendous amount of swelling is expected when the tongue is pierced and a large oversized barbell is initially placed to accommodate for the expected swelling. This can cause difficulty in breathing and swallowing.

Eating, drinking and speech are also impaired. The large barbell flops around and can cause un-restorable fractures to the teeth when accidentally bitten.

The barbell can also unscrew and you could end up swallowing it or possibly aspirated and sucked into the lungs which would require surgery for it to be removed.

Male circumcision offers partial protection to HIV negative males who have unprotected sex with HIV positive females.

Male circumcision protects males against various Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STDS) and STI’s. Uncircumcised men are more likely to harbour the cancer-causing HUMAN PAPILOMA VIRUS (HPV) in their fore skin.

Circumcision therefore offers protection from prostate cancer, and it also offers protection from ulcerative sexually transmitted disease including genital herpes, syphilis and cancroids.

Safe Male circumcision further offers protection from retraction of the glands [head of the penis] and other recurrent infections of the foreskin which leads to loss of skin elasticity. It also offers protection from balanitis, inflammation of the head of penis and protect from thrush caused by Candida.

Rock salt (ekisula in Luganda Language) is referred to as halite mineral, is formed by evaporation of salty water which contains dissolved sodium chloride and less potassium ions.

For many people, rock salt is a tenderiser that helps soften food eg dry beans. Many people unconsciously benefit from it. Its potassium and sodium Ions acts as power generators in the body cells.

Neurons, the cells that transmit messages throughout the body, use ions to communicate information to perform tasks such as regulating body temperature.

Rock salt contains pure minerals eg calcium, potassium, zinc, magnesium and copper. It also acts as an important factor in cancer prevention, as cancer cells can’t live in oxygenated atmosphere. Rock salts aid the movement of blood to keep the body oxygenated.

Scientists say rock salt helps people with diabetes as it regulates blood sugar in the body. The zinc found in rock salt also helps in growth and development of (strong and fertile) sperm cells.

However rock salt may cause goiter if over taken, even hydrocele (empanama) because it brings a lot of water.

A diagnosis of cancer, or even a suspicion of cancer is darn fearful. You reflect on friends or family who died of cancer. Of all the celebrities who got cancer, gradually deteriorated and died. (Other than Suzanne Somers who went alternative, thrived, survived, and wrote a book about it.) Even every TV show or movie featuring someone with cancer has them dying at the end.

So it’s no wonder research shows that cancer is the most feared disease in the world along with being the most feared word too. How could it not be – given these circumstances?

However, as you will learn in this report, it is always possible to eliminate early stage cancers and even most advanced cancers if you use the most powerful cancer fighters. So there may be no need to lose your prostate or have it damaged by various forms of radiation therapy. After all, it is a useful organ.

Trying to knock out prostate cancer with alternative therapies is certainly worth a try. Especially given the fact that it progresses so slowly. Especially so if you use the best alternative cancer fighters. 

Unfortunately, the knowledge in this report is at such odds with what your doctor tells you about cancer, most people reading this page will not go on to read this entire report. It sounds too good to be true.

So one of the biggest issues that you have to wrap your mind around is the obvious thought, “If the information in this report, and the supplements recommended, are so good, why isn’t everyone using them.”

It’s a good question. The answer at its most fundamental level is money and secondarily, that it takes a great deal of time for new ways to fight disease to be accepted. Dr. Samuel S. Epstein writes about this in several books which you may want to read. He is an internationally recognized authority on the causes of cancer, particularly carcinogen exposure from food, air, water, household products, cosmetics, prescription drugs or industrial carcinogens in the workplace. 

It may take quite a bit to get to the point where you realize that just doing what your doctors put you through is not adequate. Unfortunately, for many people this point comes at the end, when it is clear that medicine has failed and they are dying a painful and slow death.

It doesn’t have to be this way. One reason we make this report as long as we do is that the more you understand, the more ways you learn to beat cancer, the more testimonials you read, the more this will sink into you. 

So the first thing I want to communicate to you is that there is hope. In fact, there is a whole lot of hope. The overwhelming feedback from our research is that when the right actions are taken, even aggressive, tough cancers can be defeated.

Prostate Cancer Symptoms-

There are no warning signs or symptoms of early prostate cancer. Once a malignant tumor causes the prostate gland to swell significantly, or once cancer spreads beyond the prostate, the following symptoms may be present:

•A frequent need to urinate, especially at night.

•Difficulty starting or stopping a stream of urine.

•A weak or interrupted urinary stream.

•Inability to urinate standing up.

•A painful or burning sensation during urination or ejaculation.

•Blood in urine or semen.

These are not symptoms of the cancer itself. Instead, they are the symptoms of the blockage from the cancer growth within the prostate and surrounding tissues.

Symptoms of advanced prostate cancer include:

•Dull, incessant deep pain or stiffness in the pelvis, lower back, ribs, or upper thighs; arthritic pain in the bones of those areas.

•Loss of weight and appetite, fatigue, nausea, or vomiting.

•Swelling of the lower extremities.

•weakness or paralysis in the lower limbs. 
This information has been compiled over the course of ten years. It is continually being updated as we find better supplements or learn about new effective cancer fighting procedures.

This report will tell you about the most effective cancer fighting supplements we have found in our research. Supplements that work on their own, or in conjunction with chemotherapy or radiation therapy, to defeat cancer.

And because we believe everyone should have access to this information, we’re offering it at no charge.

We’ve compiled the overwhelming amount of information on the causes of cancer and natural cancer treatments, and condensed it into this report. Well, actually, it’s the size of a book.

Better still, we’ve tested most of the cancer fighting supplements and rated them for you on their cancer fighting ability. This will prevent the mistake of using supplements that sound good but aren’t good enough in all too many cases, to beat a tough cancer. So you won’t waste money or, your life, on supplements that are marginally effective.

Many readers have told us this report is the best information they have found on cancer. It is written in an easy-to-read style a lay-person can understand. 

Much of this is information your doctor can’t tell you, or doesn’t know. For example, you’ll learn about a 14-month informal study of one type of supplement where 51 out of 65 patients with stage 4 cancer became cancer-free when they added it on to their regime.

You’ll learn what the underlying causes of cancer really are (each section covers a different cause). You’ll learn what to do to counteract those causes. This report will prioritize the most effective actions you can take to defeat cancer. Finally, you’ll learn what to do to keep the cancer from coming back. 

This information applies to all types of cancer—because the fundamental causes of cancers are the same. It is not that all cancers have the same cause. They don’t. But your cancer is caused by at least a few of the 11 causes we cover in this report. Click on the Protocols link and you’ll be able get to a specific protocol for your particular cancer. You will learn which are the best supplements to use for that cancer. The top supplements are usually the same, but we optimize them for you.

Literally thousands of people have walked this path before you, and have used the recommendations in this report to beat their cancer and live happy normal lives
