How would CANCER change my Lifestyle?

I'e been thinking a lot about what I would change if I knew my current lifestyle could contribute to a diagnosis of cancer.

I chose the following from
http://www.canceraction.org.gg/

I suggest you go there and read in more detail. Rather than waiting until I have cancer to live a healthy lifestyle. Why don't I do these now?

WHAT YOU CAN DO TODAY TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE:
Top 12 Anti-Cancer Agents

Include as many of these as you can in your daily diet.

Fish oil – omega-3 fatty acids. 3,000mg/4,000mg daily

Green tea – drink throughout day without milk

Vitamin B12 – I weekly injection of 1000mcg Hydroxocobalamin. Daily for advanced cancer

Turmeric/curcumin (Indian curry spice). Or use Inflavanoid Intensive Care from Metagenics (sold in our clinic)

Vitamin C – 5 grams or more a day, in divided doses, to tolerance level

Melatonin – 3 mg at 8pm and 3mg at 10pm, just before bedtime

Fermented soy foods – such as Miso, soy sauce, tempeh. These will also lower your thyroid levels, so watch how much you eat.

Resveratrol – found in red/black grapes, blackcurrants, raspberries, mulberries and redcurrants

Quercetin/Rotin – Bioflavonoid supplements, 50/100mg daily

Lactobacillus – "live" yoghurt or probiotic supplement. Found in our Probiotic supplements.

FOLLOW THE 5 Rs OF CANCER
RECOVERY AND SURVIVAL

To generally improve your long-term survival prospects you should ideally follow the 5 "Rs" of Cancer Recovery:
1. An anti-cancer diet and nutritional supplements.
2. Stress control: relaxation, and visualization techniques.
3. Exercise: regular, aerobic, and within your capacity.
4. Detoxification: removing both internal and external environmental pollutants.
5. (Last, but not least.) Spiritual and emotional healing. Without this, it is doubtful whether you will have a genuine will to live, and therefore make the necessary changes in your life.
