Book excerpt: There is an epidemic going on in our country, and it’s one that can hopefully be prevented. Though the statistics speak for themselves, with the right lifestyle adjustment and healthy alternatives to our traditionally bad habits, we can work to fight cancer. It is estimated that 570,000 Americans are expected to die of cancer and another 1.5 million are to be diagnosed with cancer this year. This cancer epidemic is a very scary thing, and quite frankly is something that hits far too close to home. Too many of us have either suffered from some type of cancer in our lives, or we know somebody else who has. It’s staggering just how many instances of cancer most of us will see in our lifetimes. Sure there are some types of cancer that may be preventable from the start. Something like lung cancer that plagues a lifetime smoker may be no surprise, but is no less tragic. In many cases in this day and age though, there are plenty of forms of cancer that come out of nowhere with no warning and therefore take far too many victims. Though you may be all too familiar with cancer in some form, what you may not realize is what you can do to help keep it away or cure it. The natural remedies, the foods that we eat, and the way that we take care of ourselves may all help to contribute to fewer instances of cancer. This may sound too good to be true, but when you turn to natural remedies you may find the very answers that you are looking for. One of the best ways to prevent cancer is turning to a natural food supply and therefore eating the right foods. Nutrients and other helpful natural agents may be the very best cure for cancer in the end. “The doctor of the future will give no medication, but will interest his patients in the care of the human frame, diet, and in the cause and prevention of disease.” Thomas A Edison Reevaluating Your Diet And Why It May Not Be Working For You Over thousands of years, the human diet has evolved to include the foods that are most beneficial to our health. Fruits and vegetables are in fact the result of a process of natural selection that took place over a period of millions of years. Over the ages, our ancestors constantly adapted to environment changes and adopted the selection of foods that gave them the edge in survival. We learned how to harness that edge in the form of planting crops and farming such super foods most beneficial to our health to date. The very foods that we need and that our bodies crave tend to be the best for us. The good news is that so many of these foods come to us right from the earth. These natural and whole foods are loaded with nutrients that we need for survival and nurturing. We Are Ignoring What We Really Need In The End The bad news is that today, in the age of information and technology, most of us have neglected the importance of maintaining a nutritious diet. Though we have a sufficient offering of healthy and natural foods at our fingertips, we tend to ignore them. Rather than turning to foods for nutrition, we tend to search out convenience as the leading factor in eating each day. So though we have plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables, lean proteins, whole grains, and other such natural foods, we shy away from them. If it requires too much time or effort, we are immediately turned away. We all have too much to do and therefore don’t have time to focus on proper food preparation or fueling our bodies in the right way. Instead our choices of turning to processed and fast foods has led to booming multi-billion dollar food industries that promote thought-free eating habits. Rather than eating to nurture ourselves and to really take in key nutrients, we tend to be focused merely on satisfying the need to refuel without any concern for its long-term impact on health care. This is due in large part to why so many people get sick. In the short term eating fast foods, fatty foods, or convenience foods slowly deteriorates our immune system and leaves us with the likelihood of getting sick more often. In the long term, eating improperly can lead to much more dire consequences—and this is a major contributor to the tragic phenomenon of cancer we all see. The Sad Truth About Eating Improperly You may think that eating these processed, fatty foods isn’t making that much of a difference to your health. For every meal that you eat based on convenience rather than out of healthy fuel though, you are slowly deteriorating your health away. The fat, the empty calories, and the harmful substances and potential toxins that you consume are helping to not only add to your waistline but also contribute to worse health. Did you know, cancers related to poor dietary habits are the leading cause of cancer cases in the United States? It is right up there with the other deadly cancer associated with tobacco, which also accounts for the other 30% of cancer cases in United States. While we tend to think of smoking as the only controllable poor life choice that can lead down the path to cancer, improper eating is just as much a culprit. Focusing on proper nutrition can help to better health in the short term and the long term. This is a choice that you have control over and that can have a very positive impact in your life. Many of us are familiar with cancers caused by smoking, environmental factors, pollution and chemicals. These are the types of cancer that we envision when we think of the true epidemic. However very few are aware of cancers due to poor dietary habits. Of the millions of people suffering from various forms of cancer in the United States, 30% are caused by poor dietary habits. Over the last decade there have been numerous efforts and campaigns to make people more aware of the reality of this disease and its risk factors. This has fortunately empowered people to make drastic changes in many economic and social politics throughout the United States and worldwide. Campaigns such as the one for anti-tobacco have opened many people’s eyes and raised awareness of risks associated with smoking tobacco among many of us. Similarly, our efforts to raise awareness of risks associated with our poor dietary choices tends to be a continuous challenge. It’s time to understand the implications of eating poorly and how a lack of nutrition can ultimately lead to long term health problems and medical conditions. Why Food Can Work Better Than Medicine Sure there are certainly times when medication may be a necessity. You do want to be sure that you talk through your specific symptoms with your doctor and be in tune with the big picture. Suffice it to say though that a lot of medical professionals simply underestimate the great power that food can really have.... ...
