Lifestyle and cancer update

According to the Cancer Research Campaign 3 out of every 4 cancers is preventable- an important piece of news as cancer rates are set to rise to 1 in 2 by 2020.  Some 85-90% of all cancers are caused by environmental factors and you can cut your risk by 40% by simply changing your diet. Increase plant based foods rich in antioxidants that protect your DNA and cut out processed foods high in sugars and toxins. Exercise regularly to maintain a healthy weight and boost your immune system. Balance your blood sugar levels- higher insulin levels promote cancer as insulin is a growth hormone.
