My husband has lung cancer and it slow growing tumor. He is sleeping a lot lately. I try to let him watch his John Wayne movies but he is even falling asleep then. He does have home health care, and we applied for VA benefits. I pretty much let him eat whatever until we start his natural or holistic treatments. Anyone know anything about lung cancer and natural way of treating cancer. They say cancer cannot live in an alkaline environment. He wants this. This is his choice.

I will keep you and your husband in my prayers.
Alkaline foods are foods that raise the the amount of oxygen that your blood takes in. The most alkalizing foods are RAW green leafy vegetables, non-sweet fruits and (wheat) grasses. Broccoli is a favorite choice. Remember, FRESH foods, not cooked or frozen are your most nutritional.

One has to be extremely strict using the macrobiotics diet.... no slipping in a Big Mac for lunch on the sly when no one is looking. Items for this diet can be found at the organic grocery stores, such as Whole Foods. There is no harm trying this diet, it might make you both feel better in the long run... but make sure you get protein from items such as kidney beans.
I can understand your husband wanting to try the natural/holistic treatment... that is his choice.... the traditional course of treatment with chemo, radiation, prescription meds can cause havoc on ones system, but it can also give one a better chance of a longer survival. You have to weigh the odds.
