CANCER PREVENTION

Cancer has been taking far too many lives. It is high time that we sit up and take stock of our lifestyles and stop this monstrosity from destroying our lives. There are some very simple things that we can do, very simple lifestyle changes that we can make which will ensure that we do not fall in this cancer trap. Why do I call it the cancer trap? Well because it has now become very evident that certain powers within our society have no interest whatsoever in making cancer a thing of the past just like how polio and other dreaded illnesses became a thing of the past many years ago.

My friends, cancer is still with us today simply because of the amount of money that this disease pumps into the pharmaceutical industry. Chemotherapy is the largest revenue earner in the pharmaceutical industry! Notwithstanding the fact that it has only a 3% success rate! How many of you knew this? Whenever I tell people that I do not make donations to cancer research everyone looks at me very strangely. Well this is because billions of dollars have been pumped into so-called ‘cancer research’ yet still after all these years and thousands of researches the only 3 solutions that mainstream medicine can come up with to fight cancer are chemo, radiation and surgery. Think about it! I don’t know if it makes any sense to you but I cannot make any sense of it, especially seeing that there are so many known natural remedies which have up to 90% success rates and also many known lifestyle and diet changes which public health bodies can use to advise the public about which will go a far way towards preventing cancer. Why is this not being done? Simply because they have a vested interest in keeping cancer around for a very, very long time so they will do whatever it takes to keep us in the dark! Have you ever wondered why it is that mainstream medicine is not allowed to advise you about any other alternative cancer treatments except for chemo, radiation or surgery? This is because they went and got it legislated! Doctors in North America and by law only allowed to advise you of these three routes to fighting cancer. These 3 have the lowest success rate out of all the known cancer treatments! Why would they do that if they did not have a vested interest in keeping everyone in the cancer trap?

I am pretty sure that each person reading this article would have known someone, or can count quite a few persons whom you know has died of cancer. Ask your parents (if they are still around) if when they were your age they knew so many persons who died from cancer. I am willing to bet you that their answer will be ‘No’. Does this tell you anything?

I have therefore decided that for the next couple of blogs I post I will focus on one of the most popular alternative cancer treatments for each posting, so keep tuned. One of the main thing which you need to know is that you need to keep your body in a balanced state (between acidic and alkalinity), that is a PH balance of around 7 – 7.5. Cancer cells will thrive in an acidic body however they are starved if your body is alkaline! No matter how much cancer cells you have in your body, as long as your PH is maintained above an acidic rate (i.e. 7.5 and above) the cancer will not take hold of your body. To keep your body from becoming acidic then you need to avoid certain foods such as sugar, dairy and red meat (the only red meat that does not make your body acidic is goat meat). Eat lots of fresh fruits and vegetables, drink lots of water and practice a regular exercise routine.

In the meanwhile (especially if you have a history of cancer in your family line) I would suggest that you follow these simple 12 lifestyle changes that Dr. Mercola suggests which will help to ensure that you keep cancer away from your doorsteps:

My Top 12 Tips for Cancer Prevention

Cancer is devastating far too many families and taking many way before their time. It's time to fight back and take control of your health by following the cancer-preventive lifestyle changes below.

1.           Avoid Fructose and Sugar

It's quite clear that if you want to avoid cancer, or are currently undergoing cancer treatment, you absolutely MUST avoid all forms of sugar -- especially fructose -- and this is largely due to its relation to insulin resistance.

According to Lewis Cantley, director of the Cancer Center at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center at Harvard Medical School, as much as 80 percent of all cancers are "driven by either mutations or environmental factors that work to enhance or mimic the effect of insulin on the incipient tumor cells," Gary Taubes reports.

Some cancer centers, such as the Cancer Centers of America, have fully embraced this knowledge and place their patients on strict low-sugar, low-grain diets. But conventional medicine in general has been woefully lax when it comes to highlighting the health dangers of this additive.

As a standard recommendation, I strongly advise keeping your TOTAL fructose consumption below 25 grams per day including fruits. But for most people it would also be wise to limit your fructose from fruit to 15 grams or less, as you're virtually guaranteed to consume "hidden" sources of fructose if you drink beverages other than water and eat processed food.

2.           Optimize Vitamin D

There's overwhelming evidence pointing to the fact that vitamin D deficiency plays a crucial role in cancer development. Researchers within this field have estimated that about 30 percent of cancer deaths -- which amounts to 2 million worldwide and 200,000 in the United States -- could be prevented each year simply by optimizing the vitamin D levels in the general population.

On a personal level, you can decrease your risk of cancer by MORE THAN HALF simply by optimizing your vitamin D levels with sun exposure. And if you are being treated for cancer it is likely that higher blood levels—probably around 80-90 ng/ml—would be beneficial.

If the notion that sun exposure actually prevents cancer is still new to you, I highly recommend you watch my one-hour vitamin D lecture to clear up any confusion. It's important to understand that the risk of skin cancer from the sun comes only from excessive exposure.

3.           Exercise

If you are like most people, when you think of reducing your risk of cancer, exercise doesn't immediately come to mind. However, there is some fairly compelling evidence that exercise can slash your risk of cancer. One of the primary ways exercise lowers your risk for cancer is by reducing elevated insulin levels, which creates a low sugar environment that discourages the growth and spread of cancer cells.

For example, physically active adults experience about half the incidence of colon cancer as their sedentary counterparts, and women who exercise regularly may reduce their breast cancer risk by 20 to 30 percent compared to those who are inactive.

It's important to include a large variety of techniques in your exercise routine, such as strength training, aerobics, core-building activities, and stretching. Most important of all, however, is to make sure you include high-intensity, burst-type exercise, such as Peak 8.

These exercises activate your super-fast twitch muscle fibers, which can increase your body's natural production of human growth hormone. For detailed instructions, please see this previous article.

4.           Get appropriate amounts of high quality animal-based omega-3 fats.

5.           Eat according to your nutritional type. The potent anti-cancer effects of this principle are very much underappreciated. When we treat cancer patients in our clinic this is one of the most powerful anti-cancer strategies we have.

6.           Have a tool to permanently erase the neurological short-circuiting that can activate cancer genes. Even the CDC states that 85 percent of disease is caused by emotions. It is likely that this factor may be more important than all the other physical ones listed here, so make sure this is addressed. My particular favorite tool for this purpose, as you may know, is the Emotional Freedom Technique.

7.           Only 25 percent of people eat enough vegetables, so by all means eat as many vegetables as you are comfortable with. Ideally, they should be fresh and organic. Cruciferous vegetables in particular have been identified as having potent anti-cancer properties. Remember that carb nutritional types may need up to 300 percent more vegetables than protein nutritional types.

8.           Maintain an ideal body weight.

9.           Get appropriate amounts of high-quality sleep.

10.      Reduce your exposure to environmental toxins like pesticides, household chemical cleaners, synthetic air fresheners and air pollution.

11.      Reduce your use of cell phones and other wireless technologies, and implement as many safety strategies as possible if/when you cannot avoid their use.

12.      Boil, poach or steam your foods, rather than frying or charbroiling them. Better yet eat as many of your foods raw as you can.

Be Blessed & Stay Healthy!
