Cancer – Why Some Get It and Some Don’t


Human cells are produced, mature, and then die.  Under normal circumstances, this process repeats itself every second of your lifetime.  If the body’s cells do not die naturally when they are damaged or mutated, unnecessary clusters of old and new cells build up and tumors develop.

Scientists continue to try to understand exactly what causes cancer but the truth is that there are so many variables that they primarily focus on “triggers” known to lead to cancer.  Here are some critical areas that are proven to increase your cancer risk.  Age, gender, and family history are impossible to control but lifestyle choices such as smoking, alcohol consumption, and weight are controllable and reduce your overall lifetime risk.


Question:
Let me ask you this question: why don’t we have a forest fire each time that someone throws a burning cigarette out a car window? There are many reasons why a burning cigarette may not start a forest fire.
  1. Perhaps the cigarette falls on the pavement rather than the grass.
  2. Perhaps there was a recent rain and the grass is wet and won’t ignite.
  3. Perhaps the grass is dry, but the cigarette is snuffed before it can start a fire.
  4. Perhaps it starts a fire but the grass is surrounded by water and cannot spread into the forest.
  5. Or perhaps a fire begins, but then the wind blows so hard that it blows the fire out.
Cancer Why Some Get It and Some Don’tIn the burning cigarette example above , the cigarette represents one of the many potential causes of cancer, like toxins, while the forest fire represents cancer.  The pavement and the wet grass and the wind all represent the internal control mechanisms that prevent cancer, such as a healthy immune system, a balanced pH, and oxygenated cells.

Given the same exposure to the same toxins over the same period of time, someone with a healthy immune system may have no adverse effects while someone with a compromised immune system may develop hypoxia (lack of oxygen at the cellular level) and eventually cancer.

The Immune System

Your immune system is your first line of defense against everything that could harm your body.  When it is compromised due to illness, lifestyle choices, or medications, it cannot protect you from the initial stages of cancer development.
You are effectively left defenseless.  Transplanted organs (and the immune suppressant drugs prescribed) and chronic infections can also damage the immune system and lead to damaged cells, uncontrolled cell production, and cancer masses.
Keeping your immune system in fighting condition is critical to prevention of diseases such as cancer, slowing down the effects of aging, and keeping you strong and healthy every day of your life.

Your Age

Cancer can happen to any person, of any age, both genders, and every race.  Some cancers strike specific demographics but more than 75% of cancer diagnosis occurs in persons over the age of 55.  That means that your risk increases as you get older.
Lifetime risk (the chance that you will get cancer in your life) of cancer for men is almost 50% and for women is more than 35%.  It is crucial to strengthen your body and acquire good lifestyle habits as early as possible to minimize your individual risk.

Lifestyle Choices

Maintaining a healthy lifestyle is not easy for many.  Cutting out tobacco use (due to the carcinogenic chemicals), limiting alcohol, controlling body weight, and altering eating habits to remove over-processed, GMO, and chemical-laden foods are essential steps to prevent and even treat cancer.
No matter how much smoking, drinking, and junk food may seem “enjoyable” – they will shorten your lifespan over time.  They weaken your immune system, cause body-wide inflammation, and leave you susceptible to disease.

Genetics and Family History

If one of your family members has been diagnosed with cancer, there is a risk that you may also develop cancer.  Know your family medical history and avoid behaviors that lead to illness and disease.
However, genetics is not the cause for the majority of cancer cases.  Experts estimate that it represents only about 5% of annual cancer diagnoses.

The Bottom Line…

Cancer is most commonly diagnosed in people who do not take care of their body.  Scientists and experts around the world agree that more than half of all cancers are preventable.
So, no matter what your genetic predisposition, there are a multitude of steps you can take to minimize your cancer risk if you don’t have cancer, and there are scores of successful treatment protocols you can use if you do have cancer.
As with every disease that is considered a worldwide epidemic, prevention is possible and the most consistent method of saving lives.  By taking control of your diet and lifestyle, you can improve your chances of being a person who never gets cancer.
So What is the Solution?
The solution is Antioxidants!
Antioxidants have an extra electron that they can give to free radicals which eliminates their harmful effects. Antioxidants are your body’ defense against destructive free radicals. Therefore they are your defense against aging, sickness and disease.
Where do Antioxidants come from? 
Antioxidants are found in fruits and vegetables. They are also found in other types of foods such as nuts, oils, beans, etc. Research studies suggest that organic foods have higher concentrations of antioxidants than processed foods grown with pesticides.
Supplement Warning!
unabsorbed
Not all supplements are beneficial. They must be absorbed by your body. As you can see from the x-ray, these supplements which are from a “name Brand” company, would do you no good. They are still undissolved in the colon, and the results are more hazardous than you may think!

Supplements should be monitored regularly to be sure you are absorbing them, if not, then you are wasting money on your supplements. This is why we need to have a clean colon system.
What’s more important than your Health?
Absolutely Nothing.
Not your Job, not your Business, Not your Children.
When you lose your Health…

EVERYONE SUFFERS!
