Tobacco use cessation: Some of most dangerous types of cancer are related to tobacco use (not only smoking cigarettes but smoking cigars or pipes, and chewing tobacco). As mentioned earlier, tobacco use has been linked to almost 200,000 deaths yearly. Quitting smoking or any tobacco habit can be incredibly difficult but will add 15 to 20 years to your life.

Protect skin: Skin cancer may not always be fatal, but it’s still incredibly prevalent. In 2004, more than 1 million cases of skin cancer were diagnosed – many could have been avoided by merely wearing sun block, hats, sun glasses, and avoiding sun tanning.

Reduce stress: It’s difficult to chart correlation between stress and cancer. Some studies indicate that individuals that developed cancer were in particularly high stress positions in life. There are many theories that suggest that cancer is similar to an immune system disease and stress is a major factor in lowering body’s natural immunity.

Cancer does not need to be a death sentence. There are many advances taking place every year in medicine to extend life of cancer patients. But perhaps greatest opportunity isn’t with treatment of cancer, but rather prevention of cancer in first place. By making a few behavioral changes to your life you can substantially reduce risk of cancer and improve quality of your life.

Inflammation is affected by diet in that certain nutrients play a role in normal inflammation process. Various glyconutrients are used to construction glycoforms for signaling in body and antioxidants bind to free radicals which may either be source, or by product of, damage.

In summary, inflammation is a normal cellular process. Your body induced inflammation in response to something else. While process can lead to discomfort, it should be understood that medications and herbs which mask inflammation by interfering with it may also be interfering with underlying immune response. Work with your doctor to manage your symptoms in short term but then also factor in diet and lifestyle changes to help support natural processes of body. Every cell in your body has natural ability to restore, protect and defend itself. Don't just turn them off for good. Studies have shown that concentrations of glyconutrients can have a very beneficial effect on inflammation. While processes are still being studied, non-toxic glyconutrient supplements have been available to public for over 10 years.
