癌症不只出現在新聞與病例中，它就在你的左鄰右舍，也在你的親朋好友身上。如果你不了解它、不認識它，它也可能在你毫無防備的時候於體內點燃火種。

是的，你必須知道癌症從何而來；你也必須知道身體會釋放哪些「癌症傾向的訊號」，這意味著你與身體之間的溝通管道必須保持通暢。

2016 年「細胞自噬」獲得諾貝爾生醫獎，這項研究清楚揭示癌症的路徑。斷食能啟動失能的細胞自噬，代表斷食等於重新接通身體的訊息管道。

然而，接通只是開始，保持通暢才重要。換句話說，有斷食習慣的人，比沒有斷食習慣的人，更容易避開癌症的發生。

問題在於，罹癌的人大多沒有斷食習慣。於是，我們遇到的個案幾乎都在確診後才提出同樣的問題：「這個時候斷食，還來得及嗎？」

殘酷但真實的答案是：來不及。

 

似乎，這是預防的宣達，不是治療的建議。但即使如此，仍能給徬徨的病人一個方向，或許防不了，但療癒的方向，取決於當事人的態度與心念。

大多數罹癌的人是不懂癌症的人；而最重要的是，既然已經確診，就得補修「養生學分」。不明白疾病怎麼來，就不可能找回康復的路。

即使傳統醫療的流程走完，也不代表真正康復，因為「因」還在，那個導致癌症的習性，還沒有離開你。

罹癌後，請先問自己第一個問題：「健康是誰的事？」

如果你的答案是：健康是自己的事。那麼請想想，坐在醫院診療室接受化療時，健康究竟是你自己的事？還是醫生的事？

這一刻，認知開始模糊：我的事怎麼變成醫生的事？難道醫生的事與我的事，在此刻變成同一件事了？

 

當你理解癌症的發生軌跡，再把它與化療、放療的醫療邏輯對照，你會驚訝發現：你所接受的治療程序，與癌症的成因軌跡完全無關。

你的事，是生病的事。醫生的事，是治療的事。生病與治療是兩件事，這是我們習以為常的認知。

但熟悉身體之道的人都清楚：治療 ≠ 療癒。

在生病與治療之間，往往還摻雜了「他人的意見」。許多和你身體無關的人，都迫不及待介入你的決定。

於是第二個問題出現了：「如果你不想接受治療，你的最終決定會不會因他人的介入而動搖？」更白話的說：「你的家人會尊重你的選擇嗎？」

許多人原本堅持「健康是自己的事」，一旦生病卻立刻轉向「健康是醫生的事」。因為恐懼讓人無法做主，慌張的病人只能暫時把健康交給別人。

 

但從我讀到的資料與接觸過的故事中，不接受治療的存活率，往往遠高於接受治療的人。

只要把癌症的情緒背景與化療的治療邏輯放在一起比對，你會瞬間看懂：拒絕醫療的立場反而更加堅實。

我問那些深入斷食、熟悉身體之道的人：「如果你罹癌，接受治療比較容易活？還是不接受治療比較容易活？」

走在身體之道夠久的人，都知道療癒的本質。把療癒交給身體，是唯一的方向。

而所謂交給身體，不只是斷食；還包括：做讓自己快樂的事，讓生活處於最放鬆的狀態。

傳統醫療把「存活五年」稱為成功的治療，但是從身體的觀點來看，根本不是這麼回事。

身體會讓我們知道癌怎麼來，也讓我們知道癌怎麼走。

 

癌來自情緒，情緒來自人，哪些情緒被壓抑？哪些情緒變成毒？哪些情緒在日常生活中層層堆疊？

癌症的學分，最核心的兩科是：委屈和憤怒。

在成功的案例中，我們總能找到一個「願意傾聽自己」的人，而癌症的康復，幾乎都發生在最放鬆的狀態中，那是免疫力最強的時刻。

在末日消息尚未侵襲之前，請問自己：哪些事要趕快做？哪些人要趕快遠離？

你必須非常誠實對自己說：「我知道該做什麼，而且我已經做了。」

 

（傳統的癌症治療之所以成為主流，不是因為最能治癒，而是因為最能帶來收益。）

 

What Should You Do After a Cancer Diagnosis?

Cancer does not live only in medical reports or news stories—it exists among your neighbors, your friends, and your family. And if you don’t understand it, if you don’t recognize it, it may ignite quietly inside you when you least expect it.

Yes, you must know where cancer comes from.
And you must know the “signals” your body sends when it leans toward cancer.
This means your communication channel with your body must remain open and unobstructed.

In 2016, the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine was awarded for the discovery of autophagy, a mechanism that reveals the developmental path of cancer. Fasting is proven to reactivate impaired autophagy, which means fasting is evidence that we can reestablish clear communication with the body.

However, reconnecting is only the beginning; keeping the channel open is what matters.
In other words, people who fast regularly have a much lower risk of developing cancer than those who do not.

The problem is, most cancer patients do not have fasting habits.
Thus, almost every case we see raises the same question after diagnosis:

“If I start fasting now, is it still in time?”
The cruel but honest answer is:
No. It’s too late.

This may sound like a message about prevention rather than treatment.
Yet even so, it can still offer direction to a distressed patient. You may not be able to prevent what has already happened—but the path of healing still depends on your mindset and the orientation of your heart.

Most people who get cancer are those who never understood it.
And once diagnosed, the most important task is to make up the missing credits in health literacy.
If you don’t know how the illness came, you will never find your way back to healing.

Even after completing the entire sequence of conventional medical treatments, true recovery is still far from guaranteed—because the cause remains.
That “habit that led to cancer” is still within you.

After being diagnosed, ask yourself the first and most important question:

“Whose responsibility is my health?”

If your answer is:
“My health is my own responsibility.”
Then ask yourself again:

When you sit in the hospital receiving chemotherapy,
is your health truly your responsibility—or the doctor’s?

At that moment, the boundary becomes blurred.
How did my responsibility suddenly become the doctor’s responsibility?
Did the doctor’s role and my role somehow merge into one?

When you understand the developmental path of cancer, and then compare it with the logic of chemotherapy and radiotherapy, you will be shocked to discover:

The treatments you receive have nothing to do with the path that caused your cancer.

Your responsibility is the illness.
The doctor’s responsibility is the treatment.
Illness and treatment are two different matters—this is our culturally conditioned understanding.

But those who know the Way of the Body understand this clearly:

Treatment ≠ Healing

Between illness and treatment lies a third variable: other people’s opinions.
Many who have nothing to do with your body suddenly rush in to influence your decision.

Thus arises the second question:

“If you choose not to receive treatment, will your final decision be altered by others?”

More plainly:
“Will your family respect the decision you make?”

Many people who once insisted “My health is my own responsibility” immediately switch to “My health is the doctor’s responsibility” once they fall ill.
Fear strips them of agency, and frightened patients temporarily hand their health over to others.

Yet in the cases I’ve studied and the stories I’ve encountered,
the survival rate of those who choose no treatment often far exceeds those who undergo treatment.

If you simply compare the emotional backdrop of cancer with the logic behind chemotherapy, the clarity is immediate—and the stance of refusing treatment becomes even firmer.

I often ask people who are deeply immersed in fasting and aligned with the Way of the Body:

“If you had cancer, would you live longer with treatment or without treatment?”

Those who have walked long enough on the path of the body understand the essence of healing:
True healing can only be handed back to the body.

And handing things back to the body is not only about fasting—it also means doing what brings you joy, and keeping your life in the most relaxed state possible.

Conventional medicine calls “survival beyond five years” a successful treatment.
But from the body’s perspective, this is far from the truth.
The body shows us where cancer comes from;
the body also shows us how cancer leaves.

Cancer arises from emotion, and emotion arises from human experience.
Which emotions have you suppressed?
Which emotions have turned into toxicity?
Which emotions have accumulated layer by layer in your everyday life?

The two core “credits” of cancer are:

resentment
and
anger.

In every successful recovery case, we always find someone who is willing to listen deeply to themselves—and nearly all recoveries happen in the most relaxed state.
That is when the immune system is strongest.

Before the final message of life arrives, ask yourself:

What must I do immediately?
Whom must I distance myself from at once?

And be deeply honest with yourself:

“I know what I need to do—and I have already begun doing it.”
