2 Where are we now? Expected New Cancer Diagnosis in 2016 American Cancer Society. Cancer Facts & Figures Atlanta: American Cancer Society; 2016.

3 Why haven t we made progress? 1. We don t know what it is or understand what causes cancer. 2. We re going the wrong way. If you know what something is, then you have a better chance at reversing it. -Dr. Charles Majors

4 The Genetics Question? Your genes do not cause cancer. It s not the gene - it s your environment In a healthy environment, your cells will thrive. In an unhealthy environment, they will become sick.

5 It all comes down to environment

7 How cancer works The cause of cancer and all disease is when the cells become toxic, deficient, or have a decrease in function. Characteristics of a healthy cell and a cancer cell: Healthy Cell 1. Uses oxygen for fuel Cancer Cell 1. Doesn t use oxygen for fuel 2. Doesn t need sugar for fuel 2. Uses sugar for fuel 3. Needs proper nerve supply 3. Has an inflammatory environment 4. Has slightly alkaline PH 4. Doesn t need proper nerve supply 5. Has acidic or highly alkaline environment

13 Get Your POWER On What controls ALL function and healing (health)? Nerve Supply You can go a month without food You can go days without water You can go minutes without air You CAN T go 1 second without nerve supply

14 The Vagus Nerve Runs from the central area of your brain, down to and through your chest, diaphragm, and ends up in your intestines. Part of the parasympathetic nervous system which manages your digestion, relaxation and healing responses and in turn, helps you to control the health of your immune cells, organs, tissues and stem cells.

15 The Cancer Igniter: Inflammation Bad fats: safflower, sunflower, corn, peanut and soy Common allergens like casein and gluten Psychological stress/mindset cortisol and inflammation Excess cortisol

16 Causes of Inflammation Blood sugar imbalance Chronic stress High sugar intake High processed foods intake Consumption of artificial sweeteners Elevated BP Sedentary lifestyle Smoking Chronic overconsumption of carbs Rx Meds Lack of Sleep Poor Nutrition

17 Consequences of Inflammation Cancer Heart attack Stroke Migraines or headaches Poor memory Diabetes or pre-diabetes Joint pain

18 3 Steps to Healing Change the environment Detox Stimulate immune system

19 Cancer and Your Immune System "Five years ago, if you had asked me about bacteria in your gut playing an important role in your systemic immune response, I probably would have laughed it off," Daniel Chen, head of cancer immunotherapy research at Roche s Genentech division. "Most of us immunologists now believe that there really is an important interaction there."

20 Your Gut The gut has over 100 trillion micro-organisms. The gut flora provides protection from infection, regulates metabolism and comprises more than 80% of our immune system. Up to 80% of the immune system is located in the GI tract. A healthy immune system depends upon gut flora and optimal digestion.

21 Basics of Nutrition + A deficiency in what you DO need = Illness Depressio n Sleeplessnes s An overindulgence in what you DON T need Anxiety Big Bellies, Buns and Thighs

22 The Standard American Diet In order to embrace real prevention, we must STOP doing things that cause poor health, and then all the other preventive strategies have the chance to really have an impact.

23 Sugar Sugar directly feeds cancer because cancer cells are glucose metabolizers Raises insulin levels and is one of the major sources of inflammation. When your cells become inflamed, nutrients can t get in, toxins can t get out, and cells become hypoxic and turn into cancer.

24 SUGAR The average American consumes 53 teaspoons of sugar per day A can of soda contains 13 teaspoons of sugar (mostly HFCS) The average American consumes 55 gallons of soda per year Soda makes up 10 15% of a teenage girls caloric intake American kids ages 6-11: 19 gallons of juice per year more sugar than soda!

25 The Advanced Plan 8-10% 15-25% Carbohydrates Protein 65-77% Fat Carbohydrates: Eliminate grains, sugars, and fruits. Protein: Moderate intake of proteins. Fats: Increase intake of healthy fats.

26 Fat Fat is absolutely critical it is the foundation for our hormones, neurotransmitters, and nerve system. Good fat is anti-inflammatory. Reducing carbohydrates and increasing healthy fats The cell walls need Essential Fatty Acids. If there isn t enough EFA, oxygen gets restricted and the cells become cancerous! Cell walls need Essential Fatty Acids so that oxygen and nutrients can enter the cell and create healthy cells!

27 Ketosis High-healthy fats, moderate protein, very low carbohydrates from vegetables or raw nuts and seeds only Significantly decreased tumor volume and increased survival time in a mouse model for prostate cancer, compared to animals fed the standard "Western diet" How? *Source: (Carbohydrate restriction, prostate cancer growth, and the insulin-like growth factor axis. Prostate. 2008;68: doi: /pros.20683)

28 Eat foods that aid in detox and gut health Our bodies naturally produce glutathione, but toxins, stress, trauma, and sickness cause deficiency. This also causes a burden on the liver, which is your body s detox super organ.

30 Exercise Maximize Oxygen and Lean Muscle

31 Basic Surge Training 20 seconds ON (Heart rate up to the Training Zone) 20 seconds OFF (Full recovery time to get heart rate back to the bottom of the Training Zone or below) 20 seconds ON 20 seconds OFF 20 seconds ON 2 minutes OFF

32 Exercise is for more than weight loss According to a recent study in the nutritional journal, along with dietary intake and tobacco use, physical activity may be one of the main risk factors for cancer that can be modified through lifestyle/behavior change. Exercise is better than chemo at high intensity.

33 Why We Exercise And Why We Don t

34 Detox: Toxins Cause Cancer The National Biomonitoring Program, conducted through the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, has found and measured 265 environmental chemicals in human blood and urine samples collected as part of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES).

35 Toxins are EVERYWHERE! 1. Household Cleaning Products 6. Water 2. Pesticides & Herbicides 7. Personal Care Products Steroids, Growth Hormones, and Antibiotics 8. Preservatives, Additives, Colorings, 9. Hydrogenated Oils, Rancid Fats, and other Chemicals 10. Teflon Cookware, Microvaves Medicine Biotoxins* Heavy Metals* (neurotoxins) Creating a healthy medicine cabinet. * No acceptable dose

36 How to Eliminate Toxins: Your Body s Detox Channels Skin Lungs Colon Kidneys Liver Lymphatic system Fat cells

37 Detox System Provides the precursors to make glutathione. Supports the gentle elimination of toxins. Contains the botanical extracts of dandelion and milk thistle to support liver health, and peppermint, ginger and fenugreek to soothe the digestive tract.

38 Vitamin D3 + Probiotics 5000 IU of Vitamin D in one convenient capsule 10 Billion CFU of Probiotics + gut nourishing FOS Healthy gut flora supports the immune system, which is the body s first line of defense against illness and disease.

39 Optimal Omega Optimal Omega provides essential fatty acids in ratios that promote a healthy lifestyle. Omega 3 s are essential for healthy immune response, cognitive health and cardiovascular health.
