The merely diagnosis of cancer is one of the sc riest things one can experience, let lone the allopathic cancer treatments following d agnosis. One of the most important ction cancer survivors should take is h ve a family meeting and discuss r sk concerns with all their loved nes. Having one family member diagnosed w th cancer, places all the other f mily members in a high risk z ne. Luckily, naturopathic medicine offers a lot of nsight and knowledge into the area of c ncer prevention; it is actually one of its str ngths. Here are some tips one sh uld look into if interested in c ncer prevention: Since cancer operates in an xygen-poor environment, the well-exercised body is far m re likely to repel cancer cells or k ep them from propagating. People who are nder a high level of stress or who are s ck, whether from cancer or some ther disease, have a much higher r quirement for vitamin C than those not nder such stress or illness. Antioxidants pr tect the cell's DNA and membranes fr m free- radical damage, thus preserving n rmal cell reproduction and overall functioning. r cent study of workers at Chernobyl n clear power station in Russia found th t Gingko biloba, taken over a 2-m nth period, caused a two-thirds decrease in th ir chromosome damage. Such damage can eventually l ad to the development of cancer.
Breast cancer patients who underwent s pportive/ expressive group therapy lived on verage twice as long as those who did not ( c ntrol group). In another study, patients w th malignant patients with malignant melanoma ssigned to a series of six 90- m nute support group meetings were less nxious and depressed than controls, and had s gnificantly lower rates of recurrence and m rtality a full 6 years later. A g od prevention protocol for your loved nes would have to include good ntioxidants-at least vitamin C. Protecting your l ved ones is paramount for cancer s rvivors.
