Before Cancer: A Manual For Healthy Living Based On Science (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780997557404)

The fundamentals of health science from a scientist's perspective. Health science and a better understanding of the science of health can help all of us minimize our risks of getting diseases such as cancer. Health science begins with genetics and environmental factors, and it may continue with the mind-body connection. A new field of epigenetics is described as a responsive interface that directly connects what we eat to what our bodies eventually become. Nutrition and exercise recommendations are provided for promoting healthy living and well-being. In addition, guidelines of health science are outlined which can assist the reader in achieving optimal health throughout life.

Before Cancer offers useful suggestions on how to live a healthy lifestyle as it explores many choices that we each make in our daily lives which ultimately determine the fate of our individual cells. Healthy living begins with understanding how to eat healthy and consistently making the healthy choice in all that we do from nutrition to exercise to positive thinking. This book contains valuable healthy living tips, as it offers suggestions on nutrition for cancer prevention which relates back to the importance of healthy living. A nutritious diet is a cancer prevention diet, and a vice versa. A reader that may be interested in pursuing a healthy lifestyle will obtain similar benefits from this book as a reader who is interested in cancer prevention, although each may find greatest values in different chapters of this book. The reason for this is because health and cancer are not just separate events, they are actually opposites. Health promotion and cancer prevention ultimately become intertwined synonyms. This is best explained in the health/cancer equilibriums which are detailed throughout the book. Of course, cancer prevention is not the only benefit of health promotion. The latter also assists with prevention of multiple diseases including diabetes, alzheimer's and heart disease. The book outlines how there really is no substitution for health, fitness and dieting, and it will also be of interest to people interested in diets and weight loss. Ironically, following a cancer prevention diet and exercise routine may be one best way to lose weight. Health is a crucial component of life for everyone, and Before Cancer offers options for all - healthy or ill, fit or unfit, young or elderly.

Health in a way is synonymous with life, so it only makes sense that Before Cancer will be useful for all who prefer health instead of disease. The health science guidelines in this book will outline step by step how to be healthy and how to live a healthy lifestyle. Before Cancer is a comprehensive guide on health based on science that describes the human machine as a self-repairing system with vast intrinsic capabilities.
