HEREDITARY FACTORS AND YOUR HEALTH

I believe your ancestry links has a major role to play in your health.

However by diet and exercise you can really eliminate or minimize this.

From birth every family have a feeding pattern which may not necessarily be healthy.
A slight deviation from the status quo can bring salutary improvement in your long term health .
The key remains diet and exercise .

Peoples perception of cancer are completely at odds what oncologists has succeeded in identifying as trigger factors for cancer.
The gap between the actual causes of cancer and popular belief like hereditary factors (only 15%) and pollution, and exposure to pesticides which constituted s paltry 2%.

You cannot change your tribe, ethnicity or family history, but you can control your diet and improve on your exercise routine to checkmate cancer.

Well said.

Intermittent fasting is a good way to allow your body to heal itself. Alot of studies showing positive results. However, most people will claim, haiwezekani!

I am not some fan of fasting but more of balanced and healthy diet that includes moderate portions of food. I mean, it is scientifically proven that ,if you keep your body fasting for some time, when you start eating normally your body will deposit fats swiftly, which is also not good.

Main points is that for something like bad health and how to battle it - you really need to leave your bad habbits here anyway and all other bad behaviour patterns to most like 30 years or so. I do not understand any other solution in the long term. Take it as advice.

We need to understand the disease cancer itself .

Cancer is abnormal cells division in the body that inflicts consistent damage to it over time as we are aging
The type of cancer depends on which organ of the body it is attacking be it prostate, colon, ovary, throat etc

The abnormal cell division is caused by release of toxic substances called free radicals . There are numerous factors that causes release of free radicals like smoking, our food intake , environmental pollution etc

What is of primary concern is what can we do to checkmate or minimize the effect of free radicals in our body so as not to develop to full blown cancer?

The answer to this is 2 fold.

- increase or consistent intake of antioxidants to fight or minimize the effect of free radicals.

- Exercise which minimize or increase our immunity against free radicals.

Both are very important safeguards

VITAMINS AND OTHER SYNTHETIC SUPPLEMENTS

For any thing we consume, the more natural the better for the body.
For various tablets and vitamins available at our disposal , it healthy choice to avoid them except where absolutely necessary.
It is healthier for the body and even for absorption and less tasking for various organs (kidney, liver) to get this nutrients from natural source which are mainly from fruit , vegetables and in a few cases animal protein sources .
This is the best and cheapest source.

There are a few healthy vitamins and minerals that are rare and it that case the easiest way is from supplements . Take for example saw Palmeto plant for prostate health. Since it is very rare to find , taking the supplement is the best option. This just an exception.
Nature has provided must of the vitamins and minerals for our health needs , we just have to make use of them for our long term benefits.
