I thought today I would focus on things you can do to prevent cancer. Watching a loved one dying of terminal lung cancer, as I am right now, is a sobering and depressing ordeal. I don't wish it on any of you. Everything we do or don't do in life can and will have consequences on our health. It is human nature to be less preventative and more reactive, when it comes to our health. The purpose of my blogs is to educate you every week on real things you can do to make a positive step toward optimal health. While I have a few articles here on different things you can do to prevent cancer, I want to highlight one miracle nutrient. This nutrient can lower your risk of cancer by as much as 66%, if recent studies are confirmed. One study found that those with low levels of this nutrient had a 62-per-cent increased risk of heart failure. The National Cancer Institute, found that those with relatively high levels of it in their blood had a 72-per-cent lower risk of dying from colorectal cancer, and a Finnish study found that children that were given 2,000 IU's daily of it cut their risk of getting juvenile diabetes by 80 per cent. Are you taking this nutrient? Are you taking a cheap multi that only contains 200 to 400 IU's per day of this miracle nutrient? I personally take 2,000 to 4,000 IU's a day, depending on the season, and have been for over 6 years. I also make sure all my formulations have therapeutic amounts of it so they make a real difference in your health.
Please read on to see how you can make a difference in your own health, by taking action now.

The vitamin D miracle: Is it for real?...
In the summer of 1974, brothers Frank and Cedric Garland had a heretical brainwave.
The young epidemiologists were watching a presentation on death rates from cancer county by county across the United States. As they sat in a lecture hall at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore looking at the colour-coded cancer maps, they noticed a striking pattern, with the map for colon cancer the most pronounced.
Counties with high death rates were red; those with low rates were blue. Oddly, the nation was almost neatly divided in half, red in the north and blue in the south. Why, they wondered, was the risk of dying from cancer greater in bucolic Maine than in highly polluted Southern California?

Enzyme Therapy for Cancer Prevention and Treatment ...
(NaturalNews) Enzymes are molecules that act as catalysts for all chemical reactions within the body and are necessary to sustain life. There are two basic categories: digestive enzymes which work in the stomach breaking down food particles before their nutrients can be absorbed, and metabolic (or systemic) enzymes whose primary work begins in the bloodstream digesting foreign debris before traveling to bodily tissues to continue this and other functions. A chronic deficiency of enzymes weakens the immune system, contributes to illness, and ultimately promotes diseases such as cancer. Both enzyme types are produced in the body but are also present in raw foods and through oral supplementation. To achieve and maintain optimum health, an adequate supply of both forms is fundamental.

Food Compounds That Kill Test-Tube Cancer Cells Analyzed...
ScienceDaily (Mar. 7, 2008) — Strawberries, grapes, blueberries and some familiar seasonings like rosemary contain compounds that can—in test tubes—kill cells of a childhood cancer. Nutrition-focused research by molecular biologist Susan J. Zunino of the Agricultural Research Service (ARS) Western Human Nutrition Research Center (WHNRC), Davis, Calif., may reveal exactly how the powerful plant chemicals fight the disease known as acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Pomegranate Extracts Found to Inhibit Prostate Cancer Tumor Growth...
(NaturalNews) A type of antioxidant found in pomegranates may account for the fruit's benefit to prostate health, according to a new study conducted by researchers at the University of California at Los Angeles and published in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry.Researchers found that antioxidants known as ellagitannins and their metabolites accumulated in the prostates of mice in the laboratory. Then the researchers grafted prostate cancer cells onto mice whose immune systems had been deliberately hampered. They then treated one group of these mice with ellagitannins and their metabolites. The treated mice demonstrated significantly less tumor growth than mice in the control group.
