For good reason. According to the CDC, only heart disease
kills more people in the US every year..
But cancer is not really the mysterious disease that it's
been made out to be. Why?
Because once you understand cancer and know that it's not
just something that pops out of nowhere, you begin to
realize that you can help prevent it.
Simply put, cancer is your body's ultimate reaction to
things that it's not meant or designed to handle for long
periods...
Stress. Chemicals. Processed foods that are anything but
"food." Acid in your blood and tissues. Nutritional
imbalances. Toxins.
All of these contribute to the development of cancer cells
in your body.
But instead of just praying it doesn't happen to you,
there are some very effective (and easy) strategies you can
implement to minimize your chances of being an annual
statistic.
Here are 3 of the top cancer prevention strategies:
1) Put out your "No Vacancy" sign
============================
Studies consistently show that cancer flourishes in an
acidic, toxic environment, but fails to thrive in an
alkaline environment.
So the more alkaline (and less toxic) you can make your
body, the less attractive you are as a home for cancer.
When you eat easy to digest food combinations, eliminate
acid forming foods from your diet and drink plenty of
water, you are taking an important step toward great health
and cancer prevention.
When your body is alkaline, it has more energy, so it can
heal itself better. It can more efficiently absorb
vitamins and nutrients--all good news for healthy cell
development.
Plus high water content alkaline foods deliver health-
enhancing nutrients and natural alkaline water into your
body and help flush toxins out.
All this means a more alkaline you, and a less desirable
environment for cancer cells to form and survive.
Follow the advice I give in the pages of the Great Taste
No Pain system, and you will be more alkaline, and far less
likely to develop rogue cells.

In GTNP I tell you what you should eat with what. I list
which foods are acid and which are alkaline. And I even
give you a guide for ordering in restaurants.
2) Beef up your beneficial bacteria...and put them to work
==========================================
Beneficial bacteria (probiotics) in your gut help to fight
cancer too.
Here's how:
The nitrites used in the processing of meats (such as
bologna, salami, pepperoni, hot dogs, corned beef,
pastrami, bacon and cured ham) are converted to carcinogens
(cancer causers) by enzymes in your intestinal tract.
But Lactobacillus acidophilus strains can "eat" these
nitrites and help deplete their numbers.
Plus L. acidophilus can also favorably change your
intestinal environment and reduce the supply of enzymes
that convert the nitrites to carcinogens.
This helps reduce the potential of nitrites converting to
carcinogens and can help eventually lower the risk of colon
cancer.
The problem is that most people have seriously imbalanced
intestinal flora, meaning their harmful bacteria far
outweigh their good ones.
But this is easily remedied with good probiotic
supplementation.
Super Shield probiotic formula http://www.bluerockholistics.com/product/pross.asp
contains research-grade strains of the effective cancer-
fighting strains of Lactobacillus bacteria--Lactobacillus
acidophilus, Lactobacillus bulgaricus and Lactobacillus
casei.
Plus it also has 10 other powerful medical-grade strains,
each of which provides its own unique contributions to your
body and overall state of health.
You can't get this kind of quality in a grocery store or
pharmacy shelf.
Research studies have shown that when tumor cells were
infused with omega-6 fatty acids alone (found in hundreds
of processed foods), they were jolted into overdrive and
the tumors grew at an increased rate.
But when they were fed omega-3 fatty acids, the tumor
growth rate slowed dramatically.
Here's why:
Tumors love omega-6 fatty acids, especially linoleic acid.
But omega-3 fatty acids help reduce the amount of linoleic
acid that tumors withdraw from the bloodstream...so in
effect the tumors are "starved" of their favorite, desired
nutrient and their growth slows.
In addition, omega-3 fatty acids help promote the self-
destruction of cancer cells, increasing their die-off rate
and slowing overall tumor growth.
Since most people eating the standard Western diet are
loaded with omega-6 fatty acids and seriously lacking in
omega-3's, it's no wonder that cancer is the number 2
killer in the US.
But this situation can easily be reversed.
In addition to avoiding processed foods and a diet heavy
in meat (which are both full of omega-6 fatty acids), it's
important to take a very high quality omega-3 supplement
every day.
VitalMega-3 pharmaceutical-grade fish oil supplements can
help ensure that your omega-6 to omega-3 ratio is where it
should be, and keep your supply of those necessary omega-3
fatty acids strong to help fight inflammation, joint pain,
premature aging and...tumor growth.
Don't play Russian roulette with cancer one minute longer.
Do all you can to minimize your risk--your body (and your
loved ones) will thank you again and again.
To your health,
