Natural Strategies for Cancer Prevention

Concord Chiropractic 

I believe that when it comes to cancer and other chronic diseases, effective prevention is always better than progressive treatments. That is why we offer you a chance to sit down with one of our doctors for no charge. Consultations are always free.

I believe you can greatly reduce if not virtually eliminate your risk of ever developing cancer (and seriously improve your chances of recovering from cancer if you currently have it) if you follow these simple risk reduction steps  all of which help promote a healthful biological environment in which your cells can thrive and combat disease naturally.

• Make sure that your immune system and your body is functioning at its maximum potential. Chiropractic adjustments have been proven to increase immune system function. Your brain controls and regulates your body functions. Pressure on your nervous system decreases nervous system function. Chiropractic adjustments increase nervous system function. Get Adjusted = Get Healthy.  

• Optimize your Vitamin D levels. Yes, mild tanning (not to be confused with burning) is healthy. That is why instinctively we recognize people with tans as healthy
• Reduce or eliminate your processed food, fructose and grain carbohydrate intake.
• Limit your exposure and provide protection for yourself from EMF produced by cell phone towers, base stations, cell phones and WiFi stations. On May 31, 2011, the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), an arm of the World Health Organization (WHO), declared that cell phones are "possibly carcinogenic to humans."
• Normalize your ratio of omega-3 to omega-6 fats. High-quality krill oil is a great source of omega 3 and 6, and reducing your intake of most processed vegetable oils.
• Exercise on a regular basis. Exercise reduces elevated insulin levels, which creates a low sugar environment that discourages the growth and spread of cancer cells, which thrive on sugar-based metabolism (anaerobic glycolysis). Controlling insulin levels is one of the most powerful ways to reduce your cancer risks. Exercise also improves the circulation of immune cells in your blood. Your immune system is your first line of defense against everything from minor illnesses like a cold right up to devastating, life-threatening diseases like cancer. So yes exercise will help you fight off colds. 
•  Sleep. Your body heals at a faster rate while you are sleeping.                      

• Reduce your exposure to environmental toxins like pesticides, household chemical cleaners, synthetic air fresheners and air pollution.

• Control your fasting insulin and leptin levels. Normalizing your insulin levels is one of the most powerful physical actions you can take to lower your risk of cancer, and improved insulin and leptin control is the natural outcome of reducing or eliminating fructose, grains, and processed foods from your diet.
• Avoid frying or charbroiling your food. Boil, poach or steam your foods instead.
• Eat at least one-third of your diet in the form of raw food.
