My mother-in-law called the other day and told us the doctor thinks she has ovarian cancer. Wow. Scary. It’s amazing how just like that, everything in life can change.
She told me she had a tumor / cyst on her ovary and she had all the symptoms of ovarian cancer. Her symptoms were as follows:
terrible pain in her back
frequent urination
chronic exhaustion (she has been telling me this for months. She said she goes to bed pretty soon after dinner… that is how tired she always is / has been).
swollen stomach
loss of appetite
diarrhea
weight loss
So being the researcher I am, I quickly looked up the symptoms and she was right… she definitely had all of the symptoms.
However, I told her that a couple of years back, the doctors found a cyst on my ovary as well. I was in pain … had a swollen stomach… was chronically tired… and even though I was only middle aged, I suspected the worst and figured I had ovarian cancer as well. Turns out it was just a benign cyst. And I learned it was fairly common.
However, my mother-in-law is 74 and she is not in the best health. She has smoked for over 40 years… she has emphysema too … so we were a bit worried. Plus, the information said typically no symptoms are present in the early stages of the cancer.
I decided to research the stages of ovarian cancer and here is what I found…
STAGE I:
Cancer is present in one or both ovaries
STAGE II:
The cancer has now also spread to other pelvic areas such as the bladder, rectum, or sigmoid colon. The cancer has also spread to the uterus, fallopian tubes, bladder, sigmoid colon, or rectum. Cancer may also be located in the tissue and fluid samples of the lining of the abdominal cavity.
STAGE 3:
The cancer has spread to the lymph nodes in the upper abdomen, groin or behind the womb.
STAGE 4:
The cancer has spread to other organs outside the peritoneal cavity of the body such as the liver and lungs.
So what is the PROGNOSIS of Ovarian Cancer?
Here is what I found:
If found in stage I, there is a 73% survival rate (73 in 100 survive).
If found in stage II, there is a 45% survival rate (45 out of 100 survive).
If found in stage III, there is a 21% survival rate (21 out of 100 survive).
If found in stage IV, less than 5% survive (less than 5 out of 100 survive).
That is sad news.
Well, we are praying that the cyst is just benign. And if it is, there are natural ways to get rid of the cyst. Click here to see how to naturally dissolve ovarian cysts .

Do you want to know why most Wart Removers don’t work?
Well, the typical over the counter wart remover does not kill the root of the warts. It’s like trimming back a tree. When you trim back a tree, you don’t kill the tree. You might cut off some branches and it looks like they are gone… but they will grow back… unless you pull out the whole tree… from the root.
It is the same with warts. If you want the warts to go away, you have to kill them at the root. Otherwise, they will most likely come back.
Natural wart removers work best at killing the root of the warts.

Flavonoids are good for you. But what in the world are flavonoids anyway? Well, flavonoids are the “good stuff” found in berries… strawberries, fruits, vegetables and teas. The “good stuff” is good for your heart as well as other organs in your body.
These flavonoids have the same affects as antioxidants. If you don’t know what antioxidants are, please read this article… http://members.ezinearticles.com/?type=pv&art_id=1241832&id=110275&pass=7e52e26f9150dfcb60e9e4920c052a1f762b921417f95af38c7afff311918f94
That doesn’t sound very exciting, though, does it? Eating vegetables and fruits all the time. In the words of Emeril Lagasse, we need to “kick it up a notch”… make things more exciting.
Well, let me tell you, it does get more exciting…
Dark chocolate has flavonoids in it. Chocolate? Yes, chocolate! Studies show that eating one half a bar of dark chocolate a week might be a good habit to get into … and that it is good for your heart.
Sorry to tell you that milk chocolate does not do the trick for our heart. It interferes with creating “good stuff” from happening in our bodies.
So with Halloween coming around, remember, if you are going to binge on chocolate, binge on dark chocolate!

Over the Counter Wart Removers are becoming more and more popular all the time.
The problem is, typically they don't work.
The main problem with over the counter wart removers is is once the wart is removed… it keeps coming back… and typically stronger than ever.
Why does this keep happening? Well, what you have to understand is that most of the products available just do not penetrate deep enough into the skin for their chemical components to work properly.
The premise of these products is to kill the tissue the wart virus lives in and thus kill the virus.
Unfortunately, by not being able to get down far enough to remove all of the virus infected cells of a wart, it survives to re-grow another day. This usually leaves the person chronically treating the same areas over and over again -- sometimes for years.
If you have tried these methods in the past, I am sure you can attest to the fact that the results are often bleeding, pain, secondary infections, itching, and finally abandoning the treatment that hurts worse than the wart itself.
I am sure you understand the frustration and anger felt when you do persevere for the length of time recommended to remove the wart, only to find the wart coming back!
What I have found through experience is that it is not worth wasting your time, money, and patience on over-the-counter products. If you have a wart or skin tag you want to get rid of safely and permanently, there is another way!
