The Top 10 Ways to Prevent Cancer Naturally

A great concern of many Americans is how to prevent cancer naturally, either in their lives or the lives of their loved ones. If you have family members who have died from cancer, you may be even more worried than the average American, wondering if you are doomed to suffer the same fate.

The good news is, cancer is totally preventable, no matter your genetic makeup. You can make many lifestyle changes to dramatically reduce your risk of developing cancer; following are the top ten ways to prevent cancer.

1. Be happy. Cancer has been linked with chronic bitterness and unforgiveness. Learn not to take offense, and you will be well ahead in the cancer prevention game.

2. Exercise. Studies show that people who exercise regularly are significantly less likely to develop cancer than non-exercisers.

3. Avoid conventional meat. The toxins in conventional meat-from antibiotics to steroids-can build up in your system and eventually lead to cancer. Eat meat and other animal products labeled "organic", "pastured" or "grass-fed."

4. Eat more fruits and vegetables. They are packed with anti-cancer nutrients, including antioxidants.

5. Use a shower filter. The chlorine in city water builds up in tissue and can lead to cancerous tumors.

6. Avoid processed foods. Most contain some sort of toxic chemicals, and all are nutrient-deficient.

7. Limit cell phone use and exposure to radiation. Excessive cell phone use has been linked to brain tumors. And-dare I say this?–studies show that women who get regular mammograms have a much higher chance of developing breast cancer than women who forgo them.

8. Green your home. Many of the chemicals in conventional cleaning and skin care products are carcinogenous. Replace them with natural alternatives.

9. Take marine phytoplankton. This oceanic algae is believed to contain all the nutrients the human body needs in a completely absorbable form. Some people with cancer have taken it-and made no other changes in their lifestyle-and been completely healed from the cancer in a matter of weeks.

10. Take an antioxidant supplement. Even if your diet is pristine, you may not be getting all the antioxidants your body needs. (I speak from experience.) Find a supplement in juice form, as the powders lose much of their antioxidant value in the dehydration process.

Preventing cancer naturally is no mystery, just a matter of commitment to making a few simple changes in your life. Start making them today, and let your cancer worries melt away!
