Cancer is the second-leading cause of death In the United States. One-third of American women and one-half of American men can expect to develop cancer. A cancer diagnosis was once a death sentence. But this has changed over the past 20 years. Recent research shows changing our lifestyle choices can (1) improve the quality of life, (2) increase the chances of survival, and (3) aid in the healing process for cancer patients.
This book provides a prescriptive guide to wellness based on the latest scientific findings and clinical trials. It introduces the concept of the Mix of Six - the six key lifestyle factors that work together to promote an optimal environment for preventing and healing cancer.
