These Statistics Include You

• ONE in TWO Men get Cancer
• ONE in THREE Women get Cancer

We can change this statistic and take control of our future. While the diseases above may not kill you the first time around, they surely do not add to quality of life. When a person has cancer it indicates the person has multiple nutritional deficiencies. When a person gets heart disease they have clogged their body with plaque.

Statistics never include you, correct? Should we learn more about prevention? Why does everyone think they are not one of the two or three until too late? Are we really “standing up” to cancer by searching for a cure? Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the United States, with one out of every three Americans falling victim to it at some point in their lives. Let’s take ownership now and prevent this from happening. You will be shocked to know that genetics and environment are not the biggest causes of either of those diseases. How strong your cells become overtime, and what you eat can change the outcome of your life. You can even reverse it now. It is not too late!

What is the one thing we are for sure in control of in our life? While there are endless uncertainties, our food choices can be easily controlled if you are old enough, and can afford to pay for your own food. There is no better investment than in your body.  Once we control our body’s cellular destiny we can control other avenues of life much better as well.  We are already gambling with every bite we eat and drink, but we can also change the outcome.

Heart attack, cancer, diabetes, breast cancer….all of this is familiar with someone we have loved or will love in the future. Eating habits are the leading cause of disease, disability and death in the US today. Heart disease can be reversed with a plant-based diet (Caldwell Esselstyn, MD). Dr. Neal Pinckney at age 58 had a coronary artery 100% blocked. After a plant based diet and some training he was running a half marathon seven months later. He had never run in his life previously. American food lobbyists are pushing high animal fat diets serving to keep people on the very diet that causes the number one killer (heart disease).

Let’s stop our blood platelets from sticking together that form clots inside our bodies. With eliminating as many animal products as you can, you can help your blood flow evenly. Why use a pill to thin your blood when all you need to do is eliminate the things that clog it. You can help your pH balance to be normal so that cancer and other diseases will be limited to grow. You can start flushing your body out, and neutralizing more by adding more raw vegetables and nutrient dense foods.

Let's start with the men first. What threatens men's lives the most? The list is surprisingly short. Here's a snapshot of the 10 leading killers of American men. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Mayoclinic.com  How can you be assured you are not one of the two?

If you had a one in two chance of dying from the diseases just discussed would you change or continue to justify your choices?  Of course alcohol, cigarettes, processed foods, processed sugar, charing our food, etc will also increase your chances of disease and dying drastically sooner. Let’s pick foods that make us stronger.

Now For The Women: Heart disease is the number one killer in the world period between either sex. One in two women die of this disease or stroke. It kills more people than cancer in the USA. One in 8 women will get breast cancer. Many might say….”oh well”. If there were a murderer who was killing half of America would our police officers go after this person? It is time to go after ourselves for letting our health come to this. Stand up to knowledge that does not come from marketing. Let’s help educate our society together. This murdering business through food marketing is big business and making people rich.  Our marketing policies have literally destroyed what people know to be healthy.
