How To Prevent Getting Cancer

Cancer literally means "crab." The name was used by the early Greeks because they noticed "legs" growing out of tumors. Cancers spread by growing radially outward and sending shoots of new growth along paths of least resistance through blood vessels and between other tissues.
Benign tumors are abnormal over growths of cells too, but they are usually contained and even often encapsulated in their own fibrous pouch. A benign tumor is easily removed, sometimes by even just sliding your hand around it and ligating off the blood vessels that supply it. Cancers are not easily removed and even with wide margin excision, unseen streams of cancer cells can be trailing off very far from the central mass.
Our immune system fights off cancer cells constantly, and it is estimated we generate about five cancer cells each year. With a properly functioning immune system though, you easily kill off these cells and they live a short life. About ten percent of all cancers spontaneously remit. That means the immune system suddenly fires up to peak performance and kills off all of even the worst cancer cells and tumors. Sometimes tumors even just drop off a person, depending on their location.
With a ten percent spontaneous remission rate, the association of miracles is made. Miracle drugs, miracle foods, miracles from above. I have seen many of these touted miracles, like laetrile when I was younger, and even yucca tree sap, now that I am older, and none of them work. It was just a coincidence that a person was taking that remedy, like shark cartilage, when they were lucky enough to spontaneously remit.
Real cancer prevention comes from caloric restriction with optimal nutrition. The over growth of cells in a body is mostly caused by too much energy in the system. Insulin-like growth hormones are an example. So called "oncogenes" otherwise known as cancer genes are usually just normal growth genes reactivated by the tidal flow of too much caloric energy being pumped into a body's system. Studies in animals and people have shown that even with the "genes" for cancer being present, the animal or person does not get the cancer on a calorie restricted diet. And this result comes with a 95% reduction in all cancers for animals or people who are calorie restricted. Those results are enough to impress me. So I have chosen to live this life style of eating right. It's a lot easier than you think. You just need to know the techniques! They are all in my book. Buy it today, share it with a friend, and prevent getting cancer which is a horrible and preventable disease.
