There is no replacement for any part of the immune system but you can boost your immune system with proper diet and supplementation, ask your physician to refer you to a nutritionist with your concerns.

Hi Sven.\nSome foods that nourish the immune system are Reishi Mushrooms, Shitake Mushrooms, All friuts and vegetables, nuts and grains. Whole foods in general will nourish the immune system. Herbs that you can use are; Echinacea, Garlic, Astragalus, Golden Seal, Sage, Rosemary to name but a mere few. Drniking lots of filtered water and getting plenty of sleep.\n\nHope this helps.\n\nCraig - Naturopath.

- All kinds of vegetables would be good, not cooked to oblivion but raw or juiced- tomatoes, most anything green etc. \n- Medicinal mushrooms (shiitake, maitake etc., just google it)\n\nThere are also countless supplements out there that claim to be good for the immune system. Just about non of them of course have any scientific backing for theri claims, but who knows.\n\nJust keep two things in mind: \nALWAYS ask you oncologist before chemo if you are taking something - some supplements/substances are actually counterindicated with certain chemotherapeutica\nALWAYS put chemo first - supplements etc. can be adjunctive to chemo but unless you want to die earlier they should not be instead.

Cut out all carbs for a few weeks. No bread, potatoes, corn, rice, cereal, pasta, fruit, tomatoes, beans (except green beans) and peas. Lots of meat and green vegs. Drink 8 glasses of water a day. Walk every day. Get a friend to diet and exercise with you

Well what I suggest is eating something that is 1. Well cooked, 2. Smells good, 3. Has either Cheese or a High Sugary Content. It is hard for the body to digest well cooked food so there are lots of waste left so your poop will be larger. You will also have a larger amount of gas created because the body works so hard at digesting it. Also drink cold water before eating. Your body cannot digest cold water. this is a fact. It has to get it up to your internal temperature before it can digest it. So by doing this you kick on your metabolism. Which means the gas factory is primed and pumped when you drop in the first load of fuel. The cheese is because of Lactose. the body doesnt really like it so and it will make you gasy.\n\nAlso Cyfu you should make sure that you have no obstructions in your anal cavity blocking the expelling of farts.

Take 2000 mgs of Vitamin C all at once. You should notice a difference in about 20 minutes.  If you don't, take another 1000 mgs of Vitamin C.  If it gets stuffed up again, do this again.\n\nDr Linus Pauling, who won a Nobel prize, used to take 10,000 mgs of Vitamin C per day and 20,000 mgs per day when he had a cold coming on or a flu.  He lived to be around 95 years old and took care of his ranch near Big Sur until he died.  If it is good enough for him, it should be good enough for us.\n\nI have been taking a minimum of 3000 mgs of Vitamin C for 35 years.  I am fine.  I take no medical drugs.  When I have a cold, I take 3000 mgs every 3 to 4 hours to keep my nose from running and to stop sneezing so much.  \n\nI rarely get a cold because as soon as I notice a cold coming on, I immediately (within an hour, if possible) take 3000 mgs of Vitamin C and then again in 3-4 hours and if I don't forget, I take another 3000 mgs of Vit C at bedtime. In most cases, I never get that cold.  If I don't take Vitamin C within the hour from when I first notice a symtom of the cold, it is likely that I will have to suffer through the cold but taking the Vit C every 3 - 4 hours helps to make me less miserable.\n\nzhebee

I just learned this one myself, and it's kinda gross, but eating boogers builds up your body's immunities to disease.\n\n\n(told you it was gross)

"In one of his books Dr. Raju explained about the cells in our body logically and scientifically. He proved how the salty food we eat, spoils the thousands of cells in our body that affects our health, causing many diseases. He proved it with examples in an appealing way.\n\nConsequently I gave up salt three months ago. I have been eating saltless food, drinking 5 liters water per day, eating sprouts as breakfast and drinking a glass of vegetable juice. Ever since I started doing it, I could find good changes in my health.\n\nI am 65 years old. Right from childhood I was allergic to certain things like sour curries, tomato juice, limejuice, soups with onion etc. For that matter cool breeze (even fan breeze) coldwater bath, smoke from the vehicles affected me at once with severe cold and blocked nose. I had a running nose most of the time. If that persisted through out the night in the morning I sneezed heavily and the isnophilia count increased. Every cold season was a nightmare to me. “cold is equal to 10 diseases”, I realized.\n\nOnce I started eating saltless food and drinking 5 liters of water, within 15 days I felt relief from allergic problems. Now, after three months, even if I eat the things that didn’t suit me earlier, I find no problem. Lemon juice, tomato, onions, sour curries etc, how much ever I ate, I feel no allergy for them. Cool breeze, the smoke from the vehicles, head bath daily, none of these are trouble for me now.\n\nFurther, I reduced my weight from 76 kgs to 69 kgs within 15 to 20 days. I am able to go for brisk walking for a hour without any tiresomeness."

No.  Humans need to consume vitamin C unlike some animals whose bodies can manufacture it.

I'd say fibers.  You can either eat fibers supplement or eat grain rice, wholewheat bread or fiber rich fruits such as papaya.

Yes you can. Both the endocrine and exocrine functions of the pancreas can be replaced. The exocrine function can be replaced with dehydrated bovine and swine pancreas collected from slaughter houses, the supplement would digest your food for you!

Change your lifestyle slowly. Opt for vegetarian foods. Once you remove meat completely out of your system, you wont miss it.
