What can you do to prevent cancer?

What can you do to prevent cancer?  Well it would be nice if there wasn't any stress, no processed food to tempt us, clean air, clean water and everyone was at a healthy weight.

What if we could at least offset the affects of stress?  Well for one, when the body is stressed it is depleted of essential vitamins (B, Zinc, C to name a few).  Think of food and supplements that can replenish those vitamins.  Fresh veggies, fruit, herbal tea, etc.  I realize that doesn't sound yummy, but if you eat candy, drink caffeine/alcohol, eat fast food when you are stressed, you just fueled the stress. 

So next time you are stressed, eat something nutritious and drink water.  You will feel so much better afterwards.

What does all of this have to do with cancer?   Having a healthy immune system is a great defense against cancer.  When a person is stressed, vitamins are depleted from the body and the immune system is negatively impacted. 

Prevention is the key.

To your health!
