The Big ‘C’ has placed a cruel strain on many families in the modern world. The incidence of cancer which is sweeping the globe is shaking people to their very core – terrified about their suffering husband, wife, mother, child...

Free radicals are one of the most recognised sources of cell damage in the body which can lead to the development of cancer. They are produced by pollution in the environment, cigarettes, burnt food, stress and sunlight, as well as by-products in your body’s natural process of metabolism. You cannot escape them! Through the help of clever nutrition, the body can effectively fight potential free radical stress on the body. It is important to have a large pool of antioxidants available to use as defensive armour against free radicals.

Cancer is an inflammatory condition. The western diet is typically rich in pro-inflammatory foods such as red meat, dairy and sugar, and low in anti-inflammatory foods such as oily fish and seed oils. The trick to shifting your body into an anti-inflammatory environment is about moderating your pro-inflammatory foods such as red meat and increasing your intake of anti-inflammatory foods such as oily fish (salmon, mackerel, sardines – which are rich in omega 3) to 2/3 portions weekly. A few simple nutrition changes will make a huge difference to your wellbeing and future.

A depressed immunity leads to a higher risk of disease in the body. There are cancer cells in each and every one of us, it is just a matter of whether they are given the chance to express themselves or not. Strengthening the body against proliferation of cancer cells is another step towards protecting yourself against cancer. We strengthen our immunity through support of micro flora in the colon, enhancing liver health and aiding proper digestive processes.

Detoxification is a major factor in defending ourselves against cancer. The amount of pesticides, toxic metals and artificial hormones which food is typically loaded with, burdens the liver which leads to a compromised immune system and a stream of foreign particles swimming around the bloodstream – which our body’s do not recognise and accordingly attack.

A personalised nutritional consultation could to help create and maintain an inner harmony and up your defences against cancer for life.
