Mesothelioma is a rare form of malignant cancer that mostly affects individuals who have worked in jobs associated with asbestos. Breathing in asbestos dust is the main cause of mesothelioma, a person who has worked in an environment for as little as one to two months where they were exposed to asbestos dust could result in them contracting the disease 30 to 40 years later. Mesothelioma is a malignant tumour of the membrane lining of the chest cavity called the pleura or the abdomen called the peritoneum. The symptoms of Mesothelioma are typically chest pain, shortness of breath and a persistent cough but these symptoms are similar to other condition so a visit to the doctor is vital.
As with most cancers, along side traditional treatment changing your diet can help. Increase soy beans products in your diet, the alpha carotene and lycopene in soy help to revert and reduce tumour growth and metastasis. Other anti-cancer foods that should be plentiful in your diet are cabbage, kale, Brussels sprouts, shiitake mushrooms, broccoli, pears, citrus fruits, turmeric, tomatoes, blackberries, raspberries, blueberries, green tea, walnuts, spinach, wheat bran, rice bran, rosemary, garlic, thyme, oregano and onions. These foods should be organic. Cut down on meat (especially grilled or barbecued) and dairy food consumption, pickled food, smoked food, alcohol, saturated fats, salt, sun exposure and smoking.
