What can be done to prevent Cancer
Cancer is a disease which instils fear by its name alone. It's a dreaded disease and it is one of the biggest killers in modern society. We already have an immune system which is quite capable of fighting and preventing us from getting diseases and killing unwanted pathogens which can cause disease. So it becomes our duty to keep our immune system working at peak performance so that it is ready to face any danger just like a country needs to have a strong army which can preventvrheal invaders from occupying its land.
Our immune system works with Killer T-Cells and Killer Cells which directly kill or kill by binding together with invading pathogenic cells. There is a complete system in place for recognising the enemy and attacking to kill and eliminating them from the body. And to keep this system working, we must provide what it needs. So to produce these cells which defend us, the most important is to avoid sedentary living. Our body is made for movement and the more we sit and be inactive, the more we damage it. So regular exercise, even moderate exercise and avoiding long hours of binge watching television and computers is important. There are some vitamins and minerals which are also very important and care must be taken to replenish them through diet or supplements. The most important being Vitamin C, Vitamin D, Vitamin E and Vitamin A. Zinc is an important mineral which plays a vital role. Omega 3 fatty acids are important for a healthy immune system and the modern diet disturbs the Omega 3 to Omega 6 ratio by increasing the Omega 6 intake many fold by way of unhealthy refined oils and low fat diet.
Having good sleep and reducing stress is also of vital importance for a healthy immune system. Reducing sugar and carbohydrates by following a healthy Keto diet can increase the level of Ketones which are a form of preferred fuel and tend to strengthen the immune system. It also helps to eat fewer meals and avoid snacking in between meals to increase Ketones. Of course by far the best way is to fast. Try to incorporate regular water fasts and periodic prolonged fasts to give the body a chance to cleanse and flush out toxins. To fast truly, we must drink only water as any type of sugar or fruit will definitely break the fast.
Fasting is so powerful that it has the potential to starve the Cancer cells and they actually start dying by a process called apoptosis where the cell just explodes and dies. It happens when the cancer is starved of sugar as Cancer actually spreads by using up the sugar we consume before our body cells get a chance to use it for energy. That is how it is able to spread so fast.
It is therefore important to make healthy choices in our diet by consuming whole foods and never forget to make regular exercise a part of our daily routine.
