Step # 3 - Removing all toxic things from Home

Otto Heinrich Warburg was a German physiologist, medical doctor, and Nobel laureate. He received the Nobel Prize in Physiolo-
gy (Medicine) in 1931 for his discovery of the nature and mode of action of the respiratory enzyme. Cellular respiration is an
oxidative process helped by enzymes by which cells convert glucose, the most basic sugar produced by human digestion, to car-
bon dioxide, water and adenosine triphosphate, or ATP which nourishes the cells.

Warburg hypothesized that cancer growth is caused by tumor cells generating energy such as adenosine triphosphate mainly
by anaerobic (oxygen free) breakdown of glucose (known as fermentation, or anaerobic respiration). The cancer cells are not
subject to being killed off at intervals like regular healthy cells. Their resistance to being killed and their ability to get energy by
fermentation makes them grow very fast and eventually cause death by malnutrition and organ degeneration of a person.
The question may be asked what degenerates or mutates healthy cells into cancer cells? Warburg’s answer was human beings
are exposed to toxic materials such as carcinogens through radiation, chemicals and diet.

Modern scientists have focused more on hereditary genetic mutation passed on from one generation to another. Thus most of
the research and enormous money for it was wasted in the last fifty years trying to prove that hereditary mutated genes are
the cause of cancer and the cure is to either destroy or change the DNA of the cells.

The following is a long list of potentially dangerous carcinogenic substances that people are exposed to everyday in modern
society.

1. Non-Stick Cookware. Polytetrafluoroethylene, the coating that makes products "non-stick" releases gases when heated, all
of which have been linked to putting humans at higher risk for cancer and other harmful health effects.
2. Flea and Tick Products. Pet's flea and tick products may save your pooch from unwanted bites but due to pesticides it can
lead to nerve damage and more.

3. Mothballs. Naphthalene, found in mothballs and products alike, can destroy red blood cells and has been proven to cause
cancer in animals.

4-Air Fresheners. Toxins found in air fresheners can accumulate in the body over the time. According to the Natural Resources
Defense Council those toxins may affect hormones and reproductive health especially in children.

5-Oven Cleaner. Many of these cleaners contain corrosive alkalis, which can have grave effects on your gastrointestinal track
and respiratory system if inhaled or ingested.
6. Furniture Polish and Stain. Non-vegetable, oil-based stains and polishes are not only extremely flammable but contain the
chemicals phenol and nitrobenzene, which can be absorbed by your skin and can cause skin cancer.

7. Toilet Bowl Cleaner. The corrosive ingredients that make acidic toilet bowl cleaners clean so well are the same ingredients
that can cause burns on skin and eyes.

8. Gas Space Heaters. Gas powered anything releases toxins and using them indoors is extremely dangerous and can lead
to Carbon Monoxide poisoning —a condition that presents very little warning symptoms.

9. Cleaning Solutions. As the biggest offenders on the list, and the most commonly used, it's no secret household cleaners con-
tains hazardous toxins. What's most concerning is it's not required for cleaners to list their ingredients on the bottle, leaving
consumers in the dark. Even those claiming to be "green" or "natural."
10. Antibacterial Soaps. Antibacterial soaps contain the ingredients the triclosoan and triclorcarbon. According to the FDA, it
can be linked to creating antibiotic-resistant bacteria and is not biodegradable.

11. Flaking Paint. Homes built as recently as the late 70s can have interiors covered in lead-based paints—hazardous when the
paint starts to flake and when it's time to repaint. Inhaling these particles can lead to lead poisoning.
