No one gets it

In a survey of 21,500 people, not a single person consumed a 100% of RDA for the 10 most important nutrients!

*as recommended by the National Cancer Institute

The Constant Battle

Free Radicals are unstable molecules that cause cell and DNA damage; They are a by-product of metabolism.

Free Radicals

Sources:

Sunlight, Stress, Toxins, Pollution, X-rays, Radioactivity, Airline travel, Medications Metabolism – Calories & Oxygen (75K) Smoking = 10 Billion free radicals per cigarette!

“The amount of antioxidants that you maintain in your body is directly proportional to how long you will live.”

Dr. Richard Cutler, Director of the Anti-Aging Research Department of the National Institute of Health(NIH), Wash D.C.

American Cancer Society

Recommendation

Cancer-related Checkup

• every 3 years for people aged 20-40 and • every year for people age 40 and older.

American Cancer Society

Prostate

• The ACS recommends that both the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) blood test and the digital rectal examination be offered annually, beginning at age 50, • Men in high-risk groups, such as those with a strong familial predisposition (i.e., two or more affected first degree relatives)

Cancer Screening

• The 5-year relative survival rate for these cancers is about 80%. • If we participated in regular cancer screenings, this rate could increase to 95%.

• Don’t have time - lame excuse!

• yourself • and the family • life style changes • Don’t BLAME the GENES • YOUR FAMILY DESERVES IT • THEY GET HURT IF YOU FALL SICK
