Reduce Your Cancer Risk--4 Steps
Step One: Live a Healthy Lifestyle
Don’t smoke: Lung cancer is the most common cancer in the world.
Maintain a healthy body weight: Obesity is on course to overtake tobacco as the leading cause for cancer in the United States.
Reduce stress: Emotions and cancer are connected. Men who are depressed have been found to have more pancreatic cancer. Nurture positive thoughts and emotions.
Exercise often: The incidence of all forms of cancer correlates with a lack of physical fitness. The American Cancer Society says at least 30 minutes a day of dedicated exercise above and beyond the usual activities of daily life on five or more days a week is needed to reduce your cancer risk. Regular exercise reduces the risk of breast cancer in women.
Get plenty of sleep: Lack of sleep can lead to a breakdown in immunity, which in turn makes your body more susceptible to cancer.
Get some sun: Twenty minutes of sunshine a day can reduce your risk. Use sunscreen: If you’ll be in the sun for a longer period, and get an annual skin exam from a dermatologist.
Step Two: Eat the Right Foods
Eat your veggies: Simply eating more vegetables and fruits could eliminate about 20 percent of cancers.
Eat less fat: By avoiding animal products, you can double this number, preventing two of every five cancers, according to the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine.
Eat Less Meat: Eat no more than 18 ounces of red meat per week. Every additional 1.7 ounces increases your cancer risk by 15 percent. Avoid grilled, broiled, and fried meat.
Never eat processed meat: Every 1.7 ounces of processed meat consumed per day increases the risk of colorectal cancer by 21 percent.
Be a Vegetarian if you can: Vegetarians have dramatically lower cancer rates, as much as 50 percent. Cut back on dairy: Men who consume 2½ servings or more
of dairy per day are 30 percent more likely to develop prostate cancer.
Go Soy: Men who drink soy milk more than once a day have a 70 percent reduced rate of prostate cancer.
Consume Less calcium: High calcium diets are also associated with higher prostate cancer risk.
Avoid: Sugar, salt, moldy food, alcohol, and saturated and hydrogenated oil.
Use olive oil: Populations with an olive oil rich diet, such as Mediterranean cuisine,
have a lower incidence of cancer. Greek women have a much lower rate of breast cancer.
Eat cancer-fighting foods: Garlic has been shown to be an effective inhibitor of the cancer process.
Drinking three or more cups of green tea a day reduces the likelihood of stomach and esophageal cancer.
Other cancer-fighting foods include: tomatoes, whole grains, citrus fruits, blueberries, apple peels, kale, spinach, fava beans, soy, onions, squash, sweet potatoes, apricots, grapefruit, grapes, lemons, mangoes, papayas, peaches, persimmons, strawberries, tangerines, and cruciferous vegetables such as cabbage, cauliflower, brussel sprouts, and bok choy.
Increase fiber intake. High fiber diets are associated with lower colon cancer rates.
Step Three: Take Supplements
Take daily vitamins: It is impossible to get adequate nutrients for optimal health from diet alone.
Take a multivitamin with 800 mcg of folic acid.
If you drink alcohol, take additional folic acid.
Take additional cancer-fighting supplements: Selenium has been shown
to have the ability to slow or even stop cancer growth. Take it with vitamin E. Probiotics promote the growth of healthy bacteria in the colon and reduce the conversion of bile acids into carcinogens. Vitamin D suppresses angiogenesis, the formation of new blood vessels that nourish the growth of tumors. Take 1000 IU a day. Consider taking: CoQ10, omega-3, milk thistle, palmetto (men only), nattokinase, acetyl-L-carnitine, extra vitamin C, alpha lipoic acid, zinc, and beta-carotene.
Step Four: Avoid Toxins
Avoid industrial areas: Industrial toxins have estrogenic properties which may be at the root of increased breast cancer and other cancers.
Limit your use of skin and cosmetic products: The average American is exposed to 100 distinct chemicals from personal care products a day. Many of these are hormone-mimicking agents, and many are known carcinogens.
Avoid products containing parabens, which have been detected in human breast tumors.
Beware of personal products containing phthalates, which soak into the skin, accumulate and are suspected to contribute to cancer.
Don’t dye your hair: People who use hair dyes at least once a month
for a year may be more likely to develop bladder cancer.
Throw away your Teflon: Don’t cook with pans coated with nonstick chemicals.
Limit your exposure to radiation: Be aware that radiation accumulates in the body and avoid unnecessary CT scans such as full body scans. Get mammograms from radiologists at academic medical centers. Avoid unnecessary X-rays.
Avoid: asbestos, chlorinated tap water, electric and magnetic fields, pesticides, PBDEs, and phthalates.

Give Me My Black Garlic--Please!
For years I've known regularly eating garlic or taking a garlic supplement may provide many health benefits. Garlic is a natural remedy for lowering high blood pressure and high LDL cholesterol while raising the level of HDL (good) cholesterol. It may be effective for combating atherosclerosis and it definitely contains a big dose of antioxidants such as vitamin C, selenium, germanium, manganese, zinc, calcium and different proteins.
I don't believe the claim that garlic will prevent cancer, but I'm quite certain when consumed on a daily basis it will strengthen your immunity system, which is justification enough for me to take it seriously. The problem is garlic pills give me gas and while I like garlic in food I don't want to eat it every day.
I recently discovered the answer to my dilemma while waiting in line at the checkout counter at Berkeley Bowl, which is Berkeley's great homegrown grocery store. Positioned to be one of those last second purchases you make was a bunch of sandwich bag sized packages of something I had never heard of or seen before--Black Garlic.
I picked up a package and read that the claim that Black Garlic is sweet and soft with a hint of garlic flavor, and more importantly "without smell." Costing around $3.50 for four heads of garlic, I could see that it is dry, brown and flaky looking--not very appetizing but what the heck, I decided to give it a try.
Once I was home and before putting the groceries away, I dug out the package, opened it and peeled away the dry skin to reveal a charcoal black garlic clove that was slightly moist and soft to the touch. I popped into my mouth. It tasted sweet, almost like molasses, with a hint of tamarind and it was easy to chew.
Wow, I thought, this is delicious. And the marketing message on the package was no lie--Black Garlic is odorless and will not give you halitosis. It is sticky though, tiny pieces can lodge in between your teeth much like raisins.
I've been eating a clove of Black Garlic almost every morning since and I hope to continue doing this but worry about being able to find it as I haven't seen it at any other food stores.
It turns out that the particular Black Garlic I'm eating was "invented" by a Korean-American named Scott Kim who has developed a high-heat fermentation process that turns garlic heads from Korea into Black Garlic in 30 days. Mr. Kim has applied for a patent and currently his company in Southern California is the only supplier.
Whether or not Black Garlic existed before he came along is debatable. Some people think it is an ancient Asian dish which was previously fermented over a period of years in earth jars that were buried in the ground. I've search around the Internet and haven't found anything to verify this or not.
Also, there is a claim that during the fermentation process, a naturally occurring antibiotic and anti-fungal found in garlic called "Allicine" is turned into "S-Allycysteine" which is water soluble and far easier for the body to absorb. Black Garlic supposedly has twice the antioxidant power of regular garlic.
It gets more interesting. Chefs have discovered it. Eric Ripert of New York's top rated seafood restaurant, Le Bernadin, uses it to garnish monkfish and it has made an appearance on both Top Chef and Iron Chef television shows. I tried shaved pieces of Black Garlic on deviled eggs and it was really delicious.
To learn more about Black Garlic and more importantly, how to order it or where to buy it, you can check out Mr. Kim's website, aptly named www. blackgarlic.com.

Counting Calories is the First Step
If you want to lose some weight, I know one sure-fire method.
First thing in the morning, every morning--stand in front of a mirror and jog in place for one hour. I guarantee you'll lose weight--probably a lot of weight.
Yeah, I know, not too many people can do this--and it would be terribly boring if you could.
Fortunately, there's a million better ways to lose weight. And then again, it all boils to one central truth. The only real way to really lose weight is to consistently burn off more calories during the day than you consume.
If you want to keep if off though, it's best to lose weight gradually over a long period of time. Starving yourself on some stupid diet or jogging in place for an hour every morning might result in tremendous short term results. But sooner or later you'll go back to your old habits--and subsequently back to your old fat self.
The people I know who have successfully lost weight and maintained their new weight have one thing in common. They count calories.
Counting calories is the only way to really know if you are making progress and it has an added benefit. When you count calories you learn a tremendous amount of good things about the foods you eat, and about the exercises you do or don't do.
You suddenly have a consciousness that keeps you from over-indulging and keeps you jogging, or swimming, or whatever.
When it comes to counting calories there are a number of good, free calorie trackers you can use on your computer or smart phone.
One of the best, non-commercial services is caloriecount from About.com, the url is view link Once you set up your account, which is a bit time consuming but worth it, you can keep track of the calories you consume daily through the food log and also keep track of the calories you burn through the activity log. There is also a nifty nutrition report which will tell you what percentage of the food you eat is fat, carbohydrates, or protein.
What I like best about the About.com site are the online support groups you can join, and the associated blogs and information sites. It's really a complete program.
I also like the simple calorie counter widget from LabPixies which I have added to my iGoogle health page. Totally intuitive and easy to use...you can find it at view link It also works on personalized Yahoo pages and there is a really cool toolbar you can download to add to your browser. All for free.
One of the best commercial services is FitDay, view link which several of my friends use. It has all the features of the About.com site and for some people it is more user friendly. However, unless you purchase the "premium" service for $64.95 a year, you find yourself bombarded with messages to buy things.
There are also several iPhone apps for this.
Whichever one you might choose, I think that just by counting calories you'll soon find yourself on a workable path to reduce or maintain body weight. The details about what you eat or how you exercise will follow.

How NOT to get Swine Flu
Because there is no vaccine for swine flu, the best protection you can have is to avoid being contaminated in the first place.
The flu is contagious one day before symptoms appear and up to five days afterward. Droplets from the mouth and nose spread influenza, so when an infected person sneezes, coughs, or touches any surface, the virus is spread.
In addition, viruses can live on a cold surface for three days.
Follow these guidelines to reduce your risk of infection:
Wash Your Hands Frequently.
* If you are unsure about how long is "long enough," wash your hands for the length of time it takes to sing "Happy Birthday" twice.
* Make sure to wash your hand before eating, after sneezing or coughing, after shaking someone's hand, and after touching anything at all that could possibly be contaminated.
* To get maximum benefit from hand-washing, use hot water, soap, and a follow-up hand sanitizer such as Purell.
Avoid Touching Anything that could be Contaminated.
* Be somewhat obsessive about not touching contaminated surfaces.
* Try not to touch things that are frequently used by others such as doorknobs, handrails, "community" keypads or pens.
* Consider wearing gloves when pushing a shopping cart, or using a paper towel to open the door of a public restroom after you have washed your hands.
* Try to avoid shaking hands with others, or kissing them on the cheeks.
* Carry a hand sanitizer with you.
* Most of all, train yourself not to touch your nose, mouth or eyes.
Avoid "Droplets."
* Avoid crowds, if possible, and stay away from people who are coughing or obviously sick.
* Try to fly less frequently, as one sick person on an airplane can infect all passengers.
Buy a "N95 certified" Flu Mask or a "NanoMask."
* In case the Swine Flu epidemic hits your neighborhood, be prepared.

My Mother (age 86) is extremely tired and weak. She has not been very healthy the last couple of years and has been in the hospital and at the emergency room about 8 times in the last 8 weeks. That is enough to make you tired and weak. She had her gallbladder out. She has been in for low fluids. This last week she has had extreme pain running from her groin all the way down her leg. He knee looked swollen. Yesterday I had her at the Immediate Care Center for pain in her right arm. She said it was not heart pain. She has had a heart attack before and knows what that feels like. She said it had been hurting for several weeks but had moved up into her shoulder during the night. She couldn't move her arm. It was extremely painful when she did. They x-rayed her at ICC and said there was nothing broken. It is a little better today. So the problems right now seem to be the extreme tiredness and weakness and pain which I guess may be arthritis. Does anyone have any suggestions for some kind of natural remedies she might try. I will check with her Doctor first. She is also diabetic. She is not overweight. In fact she has lost a lot of weight in the last year and does not really eat enough.
has anyone had experience with gout? I read that Quercetin&Bromelain is a a helpful treatment for gout also cherry caps. or cherry juice. Can anyone give me some personal experience?
i am a retired occupational therapist/shoulder specialist. i will try to help with any questions about shoulders or exercise in general

Hello all...
Having gone a full two year stretch (circa 2000) sleeping only 2 hours per night, I have devoted much of my professional life and work to this very issue.
I also specialize in using a new Neurofeedback technology that normalizes restful, restorative sleep in 93% of the people I train in my practice.
A few of the cases that we have had success recovering sleep with:
* Recent and longer term general insomnia
* Anxiety and panic attack related insomnia
* Mild to moderate physical and central sleep apnea
* Fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue related sleep deprivation issues
* Insomnia and sleep deprivation related depression issues
We assist in normalizing sleep without aids like Ambien and Lunesta. We do not however, diagnose, treat or cure any diseases or disorders.
So if anyone has any questions related to sleep, insomnia as well as other sleep related challenges....fire away! I'm happy to share what I know.

Having gone a full two year stretch (circa 2000) sleeping only 2 hours per night, I have devoted much of my professional life and work to this very issue.
I also specialize in using a new Neurofeedback technology that normalizes restful, restorative sleep in 93% of the people I train in my practice.
A few of the cases that we have had success recovering sleep with:
* Recent and longer term general insomnia
* Anxiety and panic attack related insomnia
* Mild to moderate physical and central sleep apnea
* Fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue related sleep deprivation issues
* Insomnia and sleep deprivation related depression issues
We assist in normalizing sleep without aids like Ambien and Lunesta. We do not however, diagnose, treat or cure any diseases or disorders.
