ABOUT THE BOOK
In
2002, Dr Judy Ford gave several public lectures on Cancer Prevention. These
talks were widely acclaimed. A CD made from one of the talks has sold
hundreds of copies. In response to frequent requests, Dr Ford has now
produced an e-book packed with useful tips on how you can change your
lifestyle so as to markedly reduce your cancer risk.
If you've been lucky enough to hear
one her lectures, you will have learnt a great deal. here is a chance to
renew and expand that knowledge. The book contains the very latest findings
and is packed with easy to understand information and practical advice.
What
the Chapters cover:
Cancer is primarily caused by environment and
lifestyle p.5
Take a look at the
rates of cancers in different countries and especially in the people who
take up residence in a new environment. The evidence that cancer is a
disease of lifestyle and environment is absolutely compelling.
How does a normal cell become a cancer cell?
p.12
What are the
essential differences between normal cells and cancer cells? Cancer cells
are normal cells that have changed their behavior. Understand the
differences.
Genes that confer susceptibility to cancer
p.17
We hear about cancer
families and genes that are called "the breast cancer gene", "the colon
cancer gene" etc. What does all this really mean and what does it mean to
you personally? If you have a cancer gene in your family are you doomed to
have cancer?
DNA, Mutation and Protein Synthesis p.22
The science behind
genes and how they function is very simply explained. From reading this
chapter you will understand about mutation - the changes that can occur in
genes to cause them to change their function and behavior.
Keys to Cancer Prevention:
Protecting your genes and chromosomes
against mutation p.43
The first stage
in cancer is genetic change. In the previous chapter you learnt how this
occurs. This chapter outlines the types of "agents" in our environment
that can cause problems. These range from things we might breathe
through to things we might touch or eat. There is great advice here on
how you can both avoid these agents and strengthen yourself against the
ones that you can't avoid.
Keys to Preventing Cancer Promotion:
Reducing Cell Division p.63
The second stage
in cancer is cell division. Even if you are exposed to hazardous
mutagens, your risk is still quite low if your cells are not dividing.
So what stimulates cell division? You will find that there are a range
of things from sunburn to eating the wrong carbohydrates. The
relationship between weight and cancer is explained and solutions
offered.
Keys to Preventing Cancer Progression:
Optimizing Cell Division p 67
The third stage
in cancer is called progression. You will often have heard of someone
having a "tumor" that is "benign". These tumors will often be produced
by Mutation plus Cell Division. They don't progress because the cells
are dividing in an essentially normal way. Learn what you need to do to
keep your body in balance so that your cells divide in an optimal way.
Keys to Preventing Cancer Progression:
Optimizing Immune Surveillance p.71
Despite having
cancer in the body, a strong immune system goes a long way to
controlling it. This is why some people are able to get over cancer
through using meditation and diet. Learn what you need to do in order to
optimize your immune system. Think of your Immune System as your Police
Force. You'll probably be surprised at some of the things you should do.
Appendix: Nutrients in Common Foods p. 75
Is this like other
books on Cancer?
This book is completely different
because it explains the scientific understanding of cancer in a very simple
way. Many people studying cancer would not know all this information. Dr
Ford crosses the boundaries between different scientific disciplines and
brings you an overall picture. She includes information on cell division
that is known by only a relatively small group of specialist scientists. She
has herself researched and published extensively in this area.
Unlike many others, this book is NOT
simplistic NOR a one step solution., although it is easy to understand. Cancer
is a progressive disease that develops because of exposures to toxic
chemicals and radiations and because of poor lifestyle habits. Certainly
some people have higher innate risks than others but almost everyone can do a lot
to reduce their risks.
This book gives information and
practical solutions. Many of the suggested changes can be easily absorbed in
normal daily routine. The book is like the talks Dr Ford has given to public
audiences but contains much more specific information.
Here is an excerpt from the editorial
in the "Wimmera Mail Times" written after one of Dr Ford's talks
on Cancer Prevention.
"Dr
Ford laid down the law on potential carcinogens for a packed public forum in
Horsham. She was speaking to a microcosm of a larger Wimmera community which
is continually discomforted by the frequency and uncomfortable proximity of
cancer diagnoses. Everyone knows someone, or some people, cut down by
cancer.
Everyone at the forum was seeking
hints from an expert of international renown, someone who intimately
understands the way a body builds, operates and kills itself.
Dr Ford did not disappoint. Her talk
outlined the basic mechanics of cancer and then, by listing potential
triggers, detailed what small but significant steps people could take to
help self-guard themselves...........
Dr Ford's blueprint hinted at lives
to be lived in cotton wool, but carried an unavoidably important bottom line
- that even a few relatively small lifestyle modifications have the
potential to add years and years.........."
Another letter of thanks from Jo-Anne
Deuter following a talk to 300 business women, sponsored by Minter Ellison
and Westpac Women in Business was more succinct:
"The overwhelming comment was that
your presentation very clearly explained a very difficult area of science in
a way that we could all understand and act on". |
