Announcing breakthrough new cancer treatments
Breakthrough New Cancer
Treatment Announced at
Cancer Control Society Meeting
This is the second of two reports about the 2014 Cancer Control Society Convention and Doctors’ Symposium, held over Labor Day weekend at the Sheraton Universal Hotel, Universal City, California
by Andrew Scholberg
At the Doctors’ Symposium, one of the world’s best cancer doctors, Tony Jimenez, M.D., stood up and declared, “Rigvir introduces a new era in cancer therapy. Rigvir is better than anything I’ve seen in 25 years!”
What is Rigvir? It’s actually a virus -- not a man-made virus but a virus made by God. This particular virus is found in the gut of children. Rigvir therapy seeks and destroys cancer cells, causing them to self-destruct.
Can this therapy help you or someone you love? Let’s take a look. ..
Flu Fighters -- Stock Up On These Immunity-boosting Foods
With all of the talk of infectious diseases and the fear and hysteria surrounding them. You may not be aware that you have the ammunition to fight back and essentially never get sick if you keep your body rich with antioxidants and helped with exercise, rest, and hydration. And yes, that includes fighting the Ebola Virus

Flu Fighters -- Stock Up On These Immunity-boosting Foods
BY KRISTINE NAPIER, R.D.
The history of cold and flu containment reads like a catalog of neuroses, from the once-popular practice of avoiding cold weather (or at least wearing a hat) to our current compulsion to wash our hands and wipe our phones in avoidance of microbial mingling. Now the latest research tells us to eat functional foods to combat infection. At least this new trend requires somewhat less clinical behavior.
Athletes> The Fat Burning Workout> Police, Fire, Military > Warriors
The phrase "functional" is shorthand for the ancient belief that eating the right foods not only prevents illness from cancer and hypertension to colds and flu but may even help cure it. "Let your food be your medicine and your medicine be your food," said Hippocrates. Science is only now playing catch-up. Recently, a landmark study by the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute suggested that food can be as effective as drugs by showing that a lowfat diet containing lots of fruits, vegetables and dairy products radically reduced blood pressure.
"Nature constructed food to fight disease in a way that we can't replicate," says Joseph V. Formica, Ph.D., professor of microbiology at Virginia Commonwealth University's School of Medicine. Still, scientists can isolate the chemical makeup of fruits, vegetables, fish, grains and other foods that affect our cells , and our health. Stock up on the following so you don't have to hoard Kleenex.
Flavonoids: These substances are a type of PHYTOCHEMICAL, natural compounds that protect plants against disease and have been found to prevent cancer and heart disease in humans. Recent lab tests here and in France have shown that flavonoids can actually stop viruses from reproducing. "Flavonoids seem to bind to the outside protective coat of viruses and then damage their DNA," explains Formica. Best sources: red wine and tea, as well as raw or cooked onions, kale, broccoli, tomatoes and citrus fruits.
Protein: "Protein is especially important for powering the immune system," says Frances Tyus, R.D., a nutritional consultant at the Cleveland Clinic Foundation. Immune-system worker bees, like antibodies and T cells, are actually made of protein, and you need a constant supply for reinforcement. To make sure your body is well defended, especially when you're about to get sick, aim for 50 to 75 grams a day; that's about two servings of meat, poultry or fish, plus a serving of beans and two glasses of milk.
Minerals: Your body can't do much with protein unless it has three minerals (magnesium, iron and zinc) and three B vitamins (B6, thiamine and riboflavin) to help transform it into muscle and other tissue. This seems like a lot to remember, but you can get most of these nutrients in one shot from sources like fish, lentils, whole grains, nuts, seeds and green leafy vegetables.
Vitamin A: Mucous membranes that line the eyes, nose, lungs and stomach are your immune system's first line of defense against invading cold and flu viruses. Vitamin A helps keep these membranes healthy. Although fatty foods like butter, milk and eggs are packed with the vitamin, many fruits and vegetables contain compounds that the body converts to vitamin A as it needs it. Go for orange, red and dark green hues like sweet potatoes, papaya, spinach, carrots, squash and cantaloupe.
Vitamin C: This vitamin is needed to produce a healthy stock of infection-gobbling white blood cells. "It's easy to get the amount you need from food," says Tyus. In addition to drinking orange juice, eat raw tomatoes, kiwis, papaya, strawberries, spinach, sweet potatoes and red peppers.
Not that you should stop washing your hands to kill microbes or brave the cold with a naked head. The first is still good science, and the second just makes sense.

ECC Coaches Predict a Three-Peat for Bridgeport Men's Basketball
Coaches Predict a Three-Peat for Bridgeport Men's Basketball
Daemen's Beverly and Dowling's Davis Share Preseason Player of the Year Honor
Daemen's Beverly and Dowling's Davis Share Preseason Player of the Year Honor
Central Islip, N.Y. – The University of Bridgeport men’s basketball team has been selected by the coaches of the East Coast Conference to win their third straight ECC title during the 2014-15 season. The league’s coaches also selected Gerald Beverly (Rochester, N.Y./Gates Chili HS) of Daemen and Darien Davis (Middle Island, N.Y./Longwood HS) of Dowling as the Co-Preseason Player of the Year.
After taking home a second straight ECC title and third in five seasons during the 2013-14 campaign, Bridgeport received five first place votes and 113 points to top the preseason poll. The Purple Knights received the top spot in the poll despite returning only one of their top seven scorers from last year's roster (Ernest Rouse - 8.6 points per game).
LIU Post is the runner up in the poll with 107 points and two first place votes. In stark contrast to Bridgeport, the Pioneers return all but one player from a roster that posted a 17-12 record a season ago.
Daemen finishes the top three with two first place and 88 points. The Wildcats were winners of the ECC Regular Season Championship in their debut season in the conference, but were ineligible to advance to the ECC Championship as NCAA Provisional Members. Despite their high perch in the poll, Daemen is still not eligible for ECC or NCAA post-season play once again this year, in their third and final season in the transition from being NAIA members to NCAA Division II.
Dowling, who was the top seed in last year's ECC Championship, and District of Columbia round out the first place vote recipients, with one apiece.
Beverly and Davis share the honor of Preseason Player of the Year after outstanding junior campaigns last season. Beverly, a First Team All-Conference selection and the conference's reigning Defensive Player of the Year, helped guide Daemen to the top spot in the league standings as a force in the paint. The 6-7 forward poured in 18.9 ppg on 57.3 percent shooting from the field and was the only player in the conference to average double digit rebounds, pulling down 10.0 per game. Beverly swatted away 111 shots to average 4.0 blocks per game, as well. Both totals rank in the top-five in ECC history for a single-season.
Davis was a dynamic scorer for the Golden Lions, averaging 20.9 ppg to become the first player to top the 20 point mark at Dowling since the 2001-02 season. Davis, who joined Beverly as a First Team All-Conference honoree and was named to the National Association of Basketball Coaches (NABC) All-District Second Team, shot 48.4 percent from the field. He also finished in the top 10 in the conference in field goals made (194), three-point field goal percentage (37.6), free throws made (133), steals (55), and steals per game (2.0).

LIU Post's Williams Tabbed as Preseason Player of the Year
LIU Post's Williams Tabbed as Preseason Player of the Year
Central Islip, N.Y. – University of the District of Columbia, winners of last year's ECC Women's Basketball Championship, have been selected as favorites to do so once again in a vote by the conference's coaches. Chelsea Williams (Copiague, N.Y./Copiague HS), a senior guard from LIU Post, was selected as the Preseason Player of the Year.
UDC finished last season with a 21-8 record on the way to winning the first ECC Championship in program history. They also made a trip to the NCAA Tournament for the second time in three seasons since joining the ECC. The 2014-15 edition of the Firebirds has eight returning players on the roster, including All-Conference First Team picks Denikka Brent (Chesapeake, Va.) and Telisha Turner (Wilmington, Del.).
LIU Post finished narrowly behind UDC in the poll with four first place votes and 111 points. The Pioneers had near unprecedented success in 2013-14, winning an ECC Regular Season Championship and advancing to the Sweet Sixteen of the NCAA Tournament for the first-time ever. Their win total of 24 was the second highest mark in program history, as well.
Queens College wraps up the top three with 89 points. The Knights, three years removed from a one win campaign, finished last season with 20 wins. NYIT, who comes in at fourth in the poll, received the final first place vote.
Williams receives the preseason honor after earning the ECC Player of the Year award last season. In 31 games, Williams ranked second in the ECC by pouring in 19.7 points per game and added 5.6 rebounds per game. She also finished in the top 10 in the ECC in three point field goals made (60), offensive rebounds (80), and steals (44). In addition, Williams put up historically good statistics by leading the ECC with 610 points and 228 free throws made. Her point total was the eighth highest single-season tally in ECC history while her free throw mark smashed the previous record of 210 set by Philadelphia University's Darlene Hildebrand during the 1994-95 season.
