The TRUTH About CANCER

THE 12 MOST DIAGNOSEDTYPES OF CANCER

The general term for more than 100 different diseases (200 if you consider sub-classifications), “cancer” strikes fear in the hearts of the bravest of us. But that doesn’t need to be the case if you are empowered with the truth.

In your lifetime, you may have heard the word “cancer” once or a thousand times. It seems that the more “advancements” we make in treatments, the more we hear that yet another friend, co-worker, or loved one has been stricken.

WHAT ARE THE MOST COMMON TYPES OF CANCER?There are too many forms of cancer to name them all; however, we’d like to talk about the most common types of cancer because knowledge is power. The more you know about cancer, the better equipped you are to prevent it, fight it, and beat it if you are ever diagnosed with the “C” word.

All types of cancer share common markers: they are characterized by damaged or mutated cells, rapid multiplication, and the ability to spread throughout the body. Each specific form of cancer is named and categorized according to the tissue area affected.

Your body consists of billions of cells whose activities are managed by your DNA. Cells grow, multiply, and die every second of every day – unless they are cancerous cells. Cancer cells ignore your body’s directives and multiply without restraint. They hinder the normal activities of your internal organs and invade adjacent tissues.

The TRUTH About CANCER

THE “TERRIBLE TWELVE” TYPES OF CANCER1. Lung Cancer:There are many types of lung cancer, but the most common is non-small cell lung cancer. Its primary cause is smoking – specifically, the chemicals used to produce cigarettes, with a secondary cause one rarely ever hears about: radon poisoning. Lung cancer affects tiny air sacs in the lungs called alveoli, and it can spread to other tissues rapidly. It has one of the lowest survival rates, claiming more than 1.5 million lives every year worldwide. Lung cancer was the single most diagnosed and most deadly cancer in 2018, accounting for 12.3% of all new cases and 18.6% of cancer deaths.

2. Liver Cancer:In 2018, this cancer took the lives of 781,631 people and represented 4.9% of cancer diagnoses. As your body’s primary organ for filtration, the liver processes all your blood – a preferred mode of transportation for cancer cells – so most cases of liver cancer are secondary sites. In other words, the cancer starts elsewhere and ends up in the liver. When cancer starts in the liver, the cause is usually alcohol abuse, a birth defect, or a chronic infection such as hepatitis B or C.

3. Stomach Cancer:My father, Graham Bollinger, was diagnosed with stomach cancer, which resulted in 781,631 deaths last year and comprised 6.1% of new cancer cases. Although his official cause of death was deemed “adenocarcinoma of the stomach,” he actually died from the surgery. This type of cancer affects the linings of the stomach and sometimes goes undetected at the earliest stage. The longer it takes to diagnosis and treat the cancer, the poorer the prognosis. Diet, smoking, and alcohol consumption are believed to elevate a person’s risk of this particular form of cancer. If you have ongoing stomach distress that includes nausea, heartburn, bloating, or pain, talk to your doctor.

4. Colorectal Cancer:Cancer found in the colon or the rectum caused the deaths of almost 900,000 people in 2018 and is the third highest cause of cancer death in the United States, accounting for 10.9% of new cases last year. If caught early, the survival rates are excellent. Early screening of colorectal cancer is crucial since there are often no symptoms until the cancerous cells have multiplied and spread to other organs.

5. Breast Cancer:Breast cancer occurs in the breast tissues of both males and females, and it claims the lives of more than 500,000 people every year. The malignant tumor that grows in this tissue spreads quickly to other parts of the body if left untreated, and it is the second most common cancer

The TRUTH About CANCER

(12.3% of all new cases in 2018). Unfortunately, regular breast cancer screening and early detection have not been shown to decrease the cases of or increase survival rates for breast cancer.

6. Esophageal Cancer:Throat cancer – also known as cancer of the food pipe – claimed the lives of more than 500,000 people last year and was responsible for 3.4% of diagnoses in 2018. The primary causes of esophageal cancer are smoking, alcohol consumption, obesity, and diet. If you are a smoker who also drinks regularly, your risk is significantly higher. Screening for this form of cancer is complicated and sometimes damages the food pipe during the procedure, and scientists are working on better screening options.

7. Cervical Cancer:The cervix is located at the lower end of the uterus and opens into the upper portion of the vaginal canal. If the cells in this area undergo changes that are undetected over time, cervical cancer could occur. In 2018, this cancer represented 3.3% of all new cases of cancer. Doctors utilize Pap tests to determine the condition of the cervix cells and search for cancer or pre-cancerous cells. Early detection is critical since cervical cancer may be asymptomatic until it has spread.

8. Prostate Cancer:As with cervical cancer, there may be no signs or symptoms of prostate cancer until it has spread to other areas of the body. That’s the reason it claimed the lives of nearly 359,000 people in 2018 and accounted for 7.5% of all diagnosed cancer cases.

9. Bladder Cancer:Fortunately, because bladder cancer causes discomfort during urination, it is detected earlier than many other forms of cancer. Even with early detection and treatment, follow up care is important to ensure there is no recurrence of bladder cancer.

10. Pancreatic Cancer:This cancer is aggressive, and there are few symptoms of the disease until it is advanced. Abdominal pain, jaundice, and unexplained weight loss are signs that manifest in some patients. Pancreatic cancer claims the lives of 330,000 people yearly.

11. Non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma:This cancer starts in the white blood cells of your lymphatic system – the core of your immune system. Abdominal pain, fatigue and swollen lymph nodes (found in your armpits, neck, and groin) are symptoms some patients have reported.

The TRUTH About CANCER

12. Leukemia:Cancer of the blood cells is called leukemia. It begins in the bone marrow, where most blood cells are produced. Leukemia causes the deaths of 352,000 people every year. Too many immature blood cells are created, and these crowd out the healthy blood cells, leading to increased risk of infection, extreme fatigue, and anemia.

Combined, these 12 types of cancer account for 72.2% of all diagnosed cases in the world. And while the official statistics may state that “cancer” was the cause of death, the reality is that the majority of people who die from “cancer” actually die from the conventional treatments for cancer – chemo, radiation, and/or surgery.

Paying attention to your body, and taking excellent care of it, is the key to preventing cancer and detecting it early. The sooner you take charge of your diet, lifestyle, and weight (to name a few), the better off every cell in your body is going to be.

The TRUTH About CANCER

Human cells are produced, mature, and then die. Under normal circumstances, this process repeats itself every second of your lifetime. If the body’s cells do not die naturally when they are damaged or mutated, unnecessary clusters of old and new cells build up, and tumors develop.

Scientists continue to try to understand exactly what causes cancer, but the truth is that there are so many variables that they primarily focus on “triggers” known to lead to cancer. Below are some critical areas that are proven to increase your cancer risk. Age, gender, and family history are impossible to control, but lifestyle choices such as smoking, alcohol consumption, and weight increase risk. Controlling these factors may reduce your overall lifetime risk.

The Immune System:Your immune system is your first line of defense against everything that could harm your body. When it is compromised due to illness, lifestyle choices, or medications, it cannot protect you from the initial stages of cancer development: you are effectively left defenseless.

Transplanted organs (and the immune suppressant drugs prescribed) and chronic infections can also damage the immune system and lead to damaged cells, uncontrolled cell production, and cancer masses.

Keeping your immune system in fighting condition is critical to the prevention of diseases such as cancer, slowing down the effects of aging, and keeping you strong and healthy every day of your life.

The TRUTH About CANCER

Your Age:Cancer can happen to any person, of any age, both genders, and every race. Some cancers strike specific demographics, but more than 75% of cancer diagnoses occur in persons over the age of 55. That means that risk increases with age.

Lifetime risk of cancer for men is almost 50%, and for women it is more than 35%. It is crucial to strengthen your body and acquire good lifestyle habits as early as possible to minimize your individual risk.

Lifestyle Choices:Maintaining a healthy lifestyle is not easy for many. Cutting out tobacco use (due to its carcinogenic chemicals); limiting alcohol; controlling body weight; and altering eating habits to remove over-processed, GMO, and chemical-laden foods are essential steps to prevent and even treat cancer.

No matter how much smoking, drinking, and junk food may seem “enjoyable,” they will shorten your lifespan over time. They weaken your immune system, cause body-wide inflammation, and leave you susceptible to disease.

Genetics and Family History:Genetics is not the cause of the majority of cancer cases. Experts estimate that genetics are only responsible for about 5% of annual cancer diagnoses. Still, if one of your family members has been diagnosed with cancer, there is a risk that you may also develop cancer. Know your family medical history, and avoid behaviors that lead to illness and disease.

THE BOTTOM LINECancer is most commonly diagnosed in people who do not take care of their bodies. Scientists and experts around the world agree that more than half of all cancers are preventable. So, no matter what your genetic predisposition, there are a multitude of steps you can take to minimize your cancer risk if you don’t have cancer, and there are scores of successful treatment protocols you can use if you do have cancer.

As with every disease that is considered a worldwide epidemic, prevention is possible and is the most consistent method of saving lives. By taking control of your diet and lifestyle, you can improve your chances of being a person who never gets cancer.

The TRUTH About CANCER

As an informed, health-savvy individual, you probably want to know what you need to look for right now in order to nip breast cancer in the bud. We’ve compiled a list of five early warning breast cancer signs, most of which are rarely talked about in the media. Learn these signs as part of your preventative arsenal to stay ahead of the game.

DON’T JUST LOOK FOR BREAST LUMPSThe most common way that conventional doctors look for breast cancer in women is to identify lumps in the breast. They most often do this with mammogram x-rays. This offers physicians a basic roadmap for navigating the terrain of breast tissue, allowing them to pinpoint any lumps, masses, or other questionable abnormalities that might point to a malignancy.

But mammograms can be a potential cause of cancer due to the ionizing radiation they send into breast tissue. They also aren’t accurate 100% of the time, despite what you may have been told. Lumps and masses in breast tissue can be either benign (harmless) or malignant (harmful), and mammograms don’t differentiate between the two. This often leads to false diagnoses and unnecessary treatments with chemotherapy and radiation.

A better option, if you choose to undergo routine cancer screenings, is thermography. This unique screening method allows doctors to not only look for unusual lumps or growths, but also identify other breast cancer symptoms such as angiogenesis. This is a much stronger and more accurate indicator that breast cancer may be present.

Angiogenesis is a fancy way of saying new blood vessel growth, which may indicate that a woman’s body is trying to build a new

5 RARELY DISCUSSED BREAST CANCER EARLY WARNING SIGNS

The TRUTH About CANCER

supply system for blood to be delivered to developing breast tumors. Doctors who specialize in examining thermography images will be able to identify whether angiogenesis is taking place and suggest a proper course of action.

YOUR HORMONES AND CELLULAR HEALTHA lot of health experts like to talk about breast cancer as something that results from “bad genetics” being passed down from mothers to their daughters. This implies that breast cancer can’t be avoided and occurs as an unfortunate “luck of the draw” type scenario. And depending on the type of breast cancer they’re talking about, there may be some merit to this popular theory.

But most types of breast cancer are a result of environment, diet, and lifestyle, all of which dictate how a woman’s endocrine system produces and balances hormones. In other words, hormone imbalance plays a much greater role in determining breast cancer risk than many people think. Thermography can help qualified physicians determine whether a woman has an elevated breast cancer risk due to this frequently overlooked early indicator.

KNOW YOUR BREAST CANCEREvery woman’s body has a unique ebb and flow, and getting in tune with your own personal rhythm is invaluable for understanding whether you’re healthy. Paying close attention to any unusual changes, especially within breast tissue, is critical to avoiding breast cancer.

If you feel any unusual aches or pains in your breast, including occasional throbbing, pain, or even fluctuating discomfort, talk to your doctor. Many women assume that only an isolated lump with localized pain suggests the presence of breast cancer. The truth is that breast cancer can manifest as “scattered, seed-like” tumors that, in some cases, spread like small tentacles.

Experts from the MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston warn that breast cancer often presents without the classic lump, showing symptoms such as swelling and irritation, dimpling, nipple discharge beyond normal lactation, nipple inversion, and/or a thickening and reddening of skin around the nipple.

Just be sure to look for patterns of change or any new and unusual symptoms that occur outside the norm. Occasional pain may not be indicative of breast cancer, but persistent itching, for instance, could point to fluid buildup, poor lymph function, or your body trying to create new blood vessels for breast tumors.

CAN BACK PAIN INDICATE BREAST TUMOR DEVELOPMENT?Upper back pain that feels as though it’s coming from deep within the bones may be an early sign of breast cancer. But don’t assume that every occasional bout of soreness or back pain means you’re becoming the next statistic! Chronic back pain that doesn’t relent with stretching, chiropractic, or other means may be a sign that breast cancer tumors are forming.

Sometimes when tumors are developing in a woman’s breast, they put pressure on the ribs and spine, causing persistent pain. Be aware of any changes that occur in your spinal column, upper back, and even neck. Talk to your doctor if the pain you’re experiencing is unusually pronounced and marked by pressure from a possible internal growth.

NUTRIENT DEFICIENCY AND BREAST CANCERIf you’re not getting enough of the right nutrients in your diet, including vitamin D and iodine, your risk of developing breast cancer is already elevated. Nutrient deficiency is endemic in the West. Many people don’t realize that what they’re not eating is increasingly their likelihood of developing chronic health conditions such as breast cancer.

Nearly 75% of the adult “healthy” population is deficient in iodine, which has been shown to help ward off cancer cells in the breast and elsewhere in the body. Vitamin D deficiency is another risk factor in breast cancer. A 2012 study published in the Indian Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism revealed that low vitamin D levels are a hallmark in women with breast cancer. Other studies show similar findings.

A good rule of thumb in today’s nutrient-depleted world is to supplement with these and other cancer-fighting nutrients such as selenium and zinc. You may also wish to consult with a trained naturopath or integrative doctor. They can help you identify any specific nutrient deficiencies you might have and help you optimize your unique biological “terrain” for best breast cancer prevention.

The TRUTH About CANCER

If you’re a man, the federal government estimates that you have about a 1 in 7 chance of developing prostate cancer at some point during your lifetime. Based on 2012 data, nearly three million American men are currently living with prostate cancer. Although the condition is highly treatable, many are suffering needlessly because they didn’t catch it early enough or didn’t know how to avoid it.

Knowing how to identify the early-onset symptoms of prostate cancer is critical: it could mean the difference between having to undergo invasive radiation treatment and surgery (and suffering through a laundry list of side effects in the process), or making simple dietary and lifestyle changes now to nip this cancer in the bud and stop it from growing and spreading.

IS PSA TESTING A VALID RISK INDICATORFOR PROSTATE CANCER?

Getting your prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels tested on a routine basis is what the medical system says is the best way to catch prostate cancer early and eradicate it with minimal intervention. High PSA levels are suggestive of prostate cancer onset, the public has long been told. Men who fall into this category are often encouraged to get biopsied and undergo invasive treatment like surgery and radiation.

The problem is that a biopsy or the prostate “removal” operation can cause a dormant cancer to spread through the rest of the body. The PSA test is known as the “gold standard” for detecting prostate cancer. But is it really? Does a high PSA equal prostate cancer? This is an important question, because a high PSA leads most men straight to biopsies, then to “the knife,” and then straight to incontinence and impotence. Of course, let’s not forget that these procedures will guarantee money for your doctor and the medical industrial complex.

4 EARLY WARNING SIGNSOF PROSTATE CANCER

The TRUTH About CANCER

According to recent articles in the The New York Times and Washington Post, the PSA test is essentially worthless. You see, the PSA test simply reveals how much of the prostate antigen a man has in his blood, which is a marker of inflammation and CAN indicate cancer, but not necessarily. Infections, benign swelling of the prostate, and over-the- counter drugs (like Ibuprofen) can all elevate a man’s PSA level.

YOUR URINE CAN REVEAL 4 SIGNS OF PROSTATE CANCERProstate cancer is a relatively common occurrence among men in general, but only a very small percentage of men actually develop a clinically significant form of it.

To avoid this latter type, it’s important to educate yourself on the most common symptoms associated with the development of prostate tumors. These include bladder and urinary problems that result in:

1. Painful or difficult and frequent urination, especially at night 2. Loss of bladder control 3. Reduced urinary flow or velocity 4. Blood in the urine (a condition known as hematuria)

Many of these signs of prostate cancer develop slowly over time. However, if you notice that you’re suddenly having more difficulty releasing urine, or there’s a buildup of pressure in your bladder or urethral area, this could be an early warning sign that a prostate tumor is forming.

ARE YOU EATING RIGHT TO AVOID PROSTATE CANCER?If your diet is marked by heavy intake of caffeine, alcohol, refined sugars, and unhealthy fats (including processed vegetable oils and trans fats), you’re already at a higher risk of developing prostate cancer. A consistently bad diet is an automatic early risk factor that you need to address now for optimal health and disease avoidance.

Nutritional programs for prostate cancer prevention include diets rich in zinc and selenium, both of which have been scientifically shown to feed the prostate gland and protect against cancer. Research published in the journal Clinical Interventions in Aging in 2007 further identified how these and other nutrients, including B vitamins, stinging nettle, pumpkin seed, garlic, and more can help minimize prostate inflammation and protect against cancer.

Consuming plenty of healthy fats is part of this equation as well. Omega-3 fatty acids serve as the building blocks of healthy cellular membranes throughout your body, including in your prostate. Omega-

3s also minimize the inflammation that can lead to prostatitis, hormone dysfunction, and ultimately cancer.

HEALTHY DIGESTION CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCEAlso integral to optimal prostate health is a well-functioning digestive tract, which means if yours is out of whack, now is the time to make a change. Part of the nutrition-based prostate cancer prevention protocol involves balancing your digestion.

This will avoid gut complications such as constipation and irregularity, both of which can lead to systemic toxicity.

Digestive enzymes and probiotics can help in this area. Also helpful is hydrochloric acid, or HCL, a supplemental form of stomach acid that ensures proper food breakdown and nutrient assimilation. Other beneficial nutrients include vitamin D3 and curcumin, which studies have shown help aid in keeping the prostate from becoming inflamed and oversized.

Probiotics are particularly beneficial in that they help balance your digestive microflora, the bacterial ecosystem that regulates your immune system and nutrient uptake. Recent science has shown that up to 90% of all prostate cancers may be caused by a bacteria known as Propionibacterium acnes. Your body can successfully fight this off if it has its own healthy arsenal of beneficial bacteria.

Even though prostate cancer statics may seem scary, understanding the signs of prostate cancer and proactively taking steps now can go in a long way in keeping prostate cancer at bay.

The TRUTH About CANCER

Sneaky Cancer Symptoms Most Doctors Miss

Cancer can be devastating to every aspect of your life if you or a loved one is diagnosed. But this doesn’t have to be the case: today, there is more information than ever about preventing and beating cancer that gives hope to millions, yet so many lives continue to be lost.

8 LIFESTYLE CHANGES YOU CAN MAKE RIGHT NOWTO LOWER YOUR CANCER RISK

1. Pay attention to your body! Many forms of cancer – such as breast and skin cancer – have much higher survival rates if detected early with the proper detection method. For instance, in the detection of breast cancer, thermography is far superior to mammography (which can actually cause cancer). It is critical that you know your own body and listen to it. Yearly exams with your doctor for blood work and a checkup could be the key to catching cancerous cells early, but beware of doctors who constantly want to poke and prod. There are many non-invasive tests that they could and should be using.

2. Keep your alcohol consumption in check. Not only does drinking in excess raise your risk of liver disease, heart disease, and diabetes, but it is also known to increase body-wide inflammation. While red wine has beneficial flavonoids proven to improve your cardiovascular system, doctors suggest no more than two drinks daily for men and no more than one for women.

3.Get plenty of sunlight! The popular myth is that exposure to the sun causes skin cancer, but this is not completely accurate. Sun exposure is actually good for you and increases your body’s production of vitamin D via the interaction of ultraviolet light with cholesterol in your skin. Thirty minutes of early morning or late afternoon sun on your hands and face is enough to get your recommended dose of vitamin D. But you don’t want to burn, as

The TRUTH About CANCER

this might cause DNA damage and eventually cancer, so be careful. But do not use sunscreen, as it filters out helpful ultraviolet light and also contains several chemicals that may cause cancer.

4. Kick the smoking habit for good. Interestingly, it’s not actually tobacco itself that causes the cancer – it’s the chemicals that are used in the process of making the tobacco product that cause cancer. Quitting is the number one preventative measure you can take right now to decrease your cancer risk. Someone dies from lung cancer every 30 seconds, and smoking is the leading cancer killer of men and women in the U.S. The bright side is that your body begins to repair itself within hours of your last use, and over 5- 10 years, your risk of lung cancer returns to that of a person who doesn’t smoke.

5. Move your body at least once a day.Regular exercise doesn’t have to be excessive, just consistent. A walk around the block, joining a low-impact aerobics class, rebounding on a mini trampoline, or simply walking your dog gives your body the exercise it needs to keep you healthy. A sedentary lifestyle raises your risk of cancer, heart disease, diabetes, and obesity.

6. Get the garbage out of your diet.Choose organic whenever possible, forget “prepared” foods, and ditch anything that has a full list of chemicals you can’t pronounce. A diet rich in vegetables, healthy fats, and water is one guaranteed way to give your body the fuel it needs to keep you strong for years to come.

7. Say “NO” to GMO!Genetically modified organisms (GMOs) have been shown to cause cancer and premature death in laboratory rats, so they should be avoided like the plague. Over 90% of the corn, soy, canola, sugar beets, and cotton in the USA has been genetically modified, so be sure to read labels and buy Non-GMO or organic whenever possible.

8. Refuse to let stress impact your health.Ongoing stress leads to total body inflammation that has been linked to cancer, heart disease, and Alzheimer’s. Refuse to allow stress to destroy you mentally, emotionally, and physically by evaluating the causes of stress in your life and getting rid of them one at a time. Forgive, forget, and move on.

Lowering your own risk of cancer has more to do with your individual lifestyle choices than you may realize. Make the commitment to your health to take on one challenge every month, and you’re going to feel better right now as well as for years to come.
