Greetings!
Just over 6 years ago my husband was diagnosed with Colon Cancer. He had a long history of Colitis, inflammation of the colon, which set the stage for Cancer developing in his colon. Thankfully, we caught it with his routine colonoscopy and with a great team of alternative as well as conventional doctors he is cancer free today.
Since then, I have been keeping up with Cancer research, specifically the prevention of Cancer.
There is promising research on the use of certain natural botanicals & vitamins
(like Tumeric, Vit D and Detoxifying herbs)
for cancer prevention all with the aim of reducing Chronic Inflammation and fighting toxic build up in the body.
There is also new research challenging the idea that Genetics are the most influential aspect of wether or not someone gets Cancer.
This research is pointing to Lifestyle as an even larger influence in the prevention of Cancer, stating boldy that
"95% of cancers are Non-Hereditary, and can be greatly influenced by your diet and lifestyle choices"
(stated by Dr Ajay Goel-Professor and Director of Oncology at Baylor University Medical Center in Dallas, Texas).
According to cancer doctor and researcher Dr Goel,
"Chronic Inflammation is the spark that ignites all disease in the body, including cancer. In the simplest terms, in order to prevent cancer, you need to prevent Chronic Inflammation".
With the right lifestyle choices, we can prevent inflammation. I'd like to focus this issue on the best ways to prevent inflammation from building up in your system, therefore preventing Cancer and other chronic diseases from forming.
Until your next visit,
Dr
Heidi Fennell DC, FICPA (clinic director at InnerMovement)

Diagnose Chronic Inflammation
with a Blood Test
|
At your next checkup, ask your MD to check
C-Reactive Protein
(
CRP) levels and Vit D levels.
- Elevated CRP signals increased risk for many chronic inflammation-related disorders, including cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes, obesity, and more.
- Vit D Deficiency has been linked to increased inflammation leading to increased risk of cancer, pain syndromes, arthritis, hormone imbalance and depression.

Fight Inflammation
with
Tumeric-
Curcumin Extract
|
There are more than 8,000 scientific studies published on the health benefits of curcumin, including the prevention of inflammation and most human cancers. Research is showing that the most absorbable and therefore effective tumeric products are those that contain tumeric essential oils along with curcuminoids. Tumeric has anti-inflammatory and antiviral benefits to help the body fight a number of health issues, along with its ability to halt tumor growth.
If your blood test shows elevated CRP or one of our Chiropractors or Acupuncturists find Inflammation through our exam findings, daily Tumeric supplementation is recommended to not only decrease pain but prevent chronic disease.

Fight Inflammation
with
Vitamin D
& O
mega 3 fish oil
|
Vitamin D
has long been known to contribute to bone health by promoting the absorption of calcium. In recent years, much attention has been paid to Optimal Vit D levels having both immune and
inflammatory
benefits.
If Vit D is low, getting more sun and supplementing with the most absorbable form of Vit D (
cholecalciferol)
along with high quality, mercury free Omega 3 Fish oil is recommended. Research shows that if deficient, taking BOTH Vitamin D and omega-3 Fish Oil has beneficial effects on biomarkers of inflammation and oxidative stress leading to cancer. Low Vit D levels are being found in epidemic proportions-we recommend all patients get tested.

Oxidative Stress caused by toxins in our food and environment has been researched as a cause for cancer for many, many years. Toxins damage cells. Damaging cells through Oxidative stress can trigger growth factors within the cell. Triggering growth factors can lead to cell replication-a known factor in the formation of cancer cells. Normal, undamaged cells do not trigger the same growth factors as a cell that has been injured through contact with toxins.
Detoxification pulls toxins from the body, reducing the likelihood of damaged (cancer prone) cells.
Our Doctor Supervised Detox program focuses on addressing inflammation and toxic buildup with a specific diet and detoxifying herbs.
Our doctors recommend either a 15 day or 21 day detox depending on patient need. Questions? Ask our Doctors...
