At Naturageo, we receive more and more people who arrive with deep and painful questions:Why did I get cancer? What can I do to heal? Is there something natural that can help me, even while undergoing medical treatment?
From our experience of more than 40 years in natural health, and based on scientific observations such as the Warburg effect, we offer a clear and understandable perspective that can help you make sense of what is happening in your body… and what you can do starting today to begin transforming it.
How does a cancer cell form?
All the cells in your body have a plan: to live, breathe oxygen, use nutrients, fulfill their function, and die when their time comes. But when that natural environment is altered — by poor diet, lack of oxygen, chronic stress, chemicals, medications, or repressed emotions — the internal terrain becomes toxic, acidic, and inflamed.This terrain is called the internal environment, and it affects everything that happens at the cellular level.
In this damaged environment, some cells are forced to change their way of living in order to stay active:They no longer breathe oxygen normally, they ferment glucose, become more resistant, lose their original function, and multiply uncontrollably.This is known as the Warburg effect: a change in cellular metabolism observed in many types of cancer. However, not all cancers behave the same.
What if they don’t use glucose?
Some types of cancer — like certain leukemias or cancer stem cells — do not rely on glucose fermentation, but instead use fats, proteins, or amino acids as fuel.The important thing is to understand that all cancer cells, regardless of what they "eat", have something in common:
They need an internal terrain that is inflamed, toxic, acidic, low in oxygen, and with a weakened immune system.
So instead of focusing only on “killing the tumor,” at Naturageo we work to change the terrain that sustains it.
What if the problem isn’t the tumor, but the terrain?
The tumor is not the enemy — it’s a message from the body.It’s saying: “I can’t live like this anymore. This environment is forcing me to mutate.”
That’s why our proposal is not to fight cancer as if it were a war, but to accompany the body with respect and wisdom. How?
6 Pillars of the Naturist Approach to Cancer
Deep Detoxification
We cleanse the liver, kidneys, intestines, skin, and lungs so the body can eliminate what harms it and recover its internal balance.
Regenerative and Personalized Nutrition
We design a diet based on living, unprocessed foods, properly combined to avoid feeding the tumor and to nourish healthy cells.
Oxygenation and Daily Movement
Outdoor walks, gentle exercise, cold baths, and conscious breathing increase cellular oxygen.
Hydrotherapy Applied with Therapeutic Intention
Proper use of water helps move blood, reduce inflammation, and stimulate filtering organs.
Emotional and Mental Reeducation
Resentment, fear, or guilt also intoxicate. That’s why we address the emotional process with natural therapies, listening, and human support.
Strengthening the Immune System
Through medicinal plants, deep rest, contact with nature, and reduction of external toxic loads (unnecessary medications, chemical-laden cosmetics, polluted environments, toxic relationships).
Cancer does not come out of nowhere, nor is it a punishment.It is a biological response to an imbalanced internal terrain.
That’s why we don’t seek to attack the tumor, but to clean the terrain, oxygenate it, nourish it, and restore its natural harmony.When the terrain changes, the tumor loses its reason to exist.
This approach does not replace conventional medical treatments, but it complements them and improves quality of life.And most importantly, it gives the patient the power to do something for themselves every day — through what they eat, what they feel, and what they breathe.
At Naturageo, we believe in the wisdom of the body.We believe in the process, in respect, and in the power of nature to support life.And we also believe that, with love and knowledge, any diagnosis can become an opportunity for rebirth.
