5 SIGNS YOU’LL GET CANCER
and 7 Steps to Prevent It!
With the lifetime cancer rate in the US now at 1 in 2.5 persons, this free, fact-filled webinar is a Must-See! It sums up the entire philosophy of BeatCancer.org and everything that we have been talking and writing about for 35 years. Although the webinar primarily discusses cancer prevention, it is equally valuable for preventing recurrence. The informative explanations are also important for patients currently fighting cancer who want to understand how to activate their immune systems.

Narrator Dr. David Brownstein is a Board-Certified family physician and one of the nation’s foremost practitioners of holistic medicine. He is the Medical Director of the Center for Holistic Medicine in West Bloomfield, MI, and has lectured internationally to physicians about his success in using natural hormones and nutritional therapies in his practice. A graduate of the University of Michigan and Wayne State University School of Medicine, Dr. Brownstein is a member of the American Academy of Family Physicians and has been honored by the American College for Advancement in Medicine. He also received the 2005 Distinguished Clinician Award for “Advancement in the Diagnosis and Treatment of Chronic Diseases” from the American Academy of Integrative Medicine.

Dr. Brownstein has authored eleven books on topics such as arthritis, vitamin B-12, iodine, thyroid disorders, natural hormone replacement, soy, sea salt, healthy dairy-free and gluten-free eating, drugs that don’t work and natural therapies that do. He has successfully treated many different conditions including adrenal fatigue, arthritis, chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, hormone imbalances, immune disorders, migraine headaches, thyroid disorders, diabetes, cataracts, and more.

We highly recommend that you watch and listen to the entire webinar, as it is loaded with information right to the end, plus you’ll learn about an opportunity to receive five free reports and a free book along with access to more than 50 archived reports!

#BEATCANCER.ORG Our WHY: Cancer Success


We have a NEW Website and Blog

We want to connect with "You". Please help us become more helpful to you by taking our quick survey.

 

 Quick Survey Click Here 

 

http://beatcancer.org





BEATCANCER.ORG PURPOSE & PHILOSOPHY

The Center was established to bridge the gap between the shortcomings of conventional cancer therapies and those of the non-conventional world. On the one hand, unorthodox cancer centers are generally so concerned with being holistic or anti-establishment that often proper diagnostic tools and careful medical supervision are ignored; on the other hand, orthodox cancer centers are so concerned with tumor reduction that host resistance and quality of life are often sacrificed in the process.

The philosophy that guides us is host-oriented rather than tumor-oriented. As the failure of radiation and chemotherapy to cure most cancers has become more apparent in recent years, dozens of alternative cancer therapies have commanded increasing attention. However, when tumor reduction remains the primary goal, the results with alternative therapies have been inconsistent and often not much better than with conventional treatments. The programs which have produced the most consistent results are those which recognize the body as a self-healing mechanism by giving it the essential tools for immunocompetence and self-repair.



The Center's goals are two-fold: Our short-term goal is to provide individualized resources and referrals to help patients make informed decisions, participate in the wellness process, and improve the quality and longevity of their lives. Our long-term goal is to change, through professional education, the paradigm of oncologic care from a monolithic approach focusing on tumor destruction to an integrative approach focusing on biological repair.

Center for Advancement in Cancer Education is an educational organization and not a treatment center. The information we provide is intended neither to medically prescribe nor to replace the attention of qualified health care advisors. We never tell patients they should or should not take a particular therapy, and we never interfere in doctor-patient relationships.

9 Ways to Prevent Skin Cancer

9 Ways to Prevent Skin Cancer 
Sun Safety - Ways to Prevent Skin Cancer

1. Reduce Sun Exposure

  • Especially between 11 am and 4 pm, when the sun’s UV rays are the strongest or when UV index is 3 or more.
2. Shade your Skin
  • Seek shade under trees, or create your own shade with a hat, shirt, or umbrella.
  • Wear clothing to cover your arms and legs. Make sure the fabric has a tight weave. Fabric that is wet or has a loose weave will allow more light to penetrate through to the skin.
  • Wear a wide brimmed hat and sunglasses with UV protection.
3. Beware of clouds
  • Up to 80% of the sun’s rays can penetrate light clouds, mist and fog. You can still get a sunburn on a cloudy day.
4. Remember about Reflection
  • Water, sand, snow and concrete can reflect up to 80% of the sun’s damaging rays.
5. Slop on the Sunscreen
  • Use sunscreens with an SPF of 15 or more that contain both UVA and UVB protection.
  • Apply sunscreen 15-30 minutes before going outside, and reapply every 2 hours (more often when working, playing, or swimming).
6. Avoid tanning salons and sunlamps
  • These lights emit mostly UVA radiation – up to 2 – 5 times as much as natural sunlight. UVA radiation causes sunburn, premature aging of the skin and skin cancer. 
  • The UVB radiation from tanning lights is the main cause of sunburn and skin cancer and also contributes to premature skin aging. 
7. Protect Children
  • The most harmful effects of sun exposure occur during early childhood. Keep babies under 1 year out of direct sunlight. Once infants turn 6 months of age, begin using a sunscreen for added protection. It’s important to protect your child’s eyes by using plastic lens sunglasses that protect against UVA and UVB rays.
  • Children should have arms and legs covered when out in the sun. 
  • Instead of wearing baseball caps, they should wear hats with a wide brim, which provides more sun protection. 
  • When children are playing in the water, make sure to use waterproof sunscreen.
8. Protect your Eyes
  • Radiation from the sun can damage cells in the structures of your eyes. UV radiation from the sun may increase the risk of developing cataracts later in life. UV radiation can also contribute to the development of skin cancer on the eyelid or on the surface of the eye. This damage can be prevented by protecting your eyes with sunglasses that protect against 100% UVA and UVB rays. Wearing a hat with a wide brim all the way around when out in the sun. Legionnaire style caps (caps with a flap a back flap) are also recommended to help protect the neck, ears and face.
9. Spot Check Your Moles

Examine your moles and freckles every month to check for any changes. See your health care provider immediately if you notice: 

  • a mole or discoloration that appears suddenly or begins to change 
  • a sore that does not heal 
  • areas of skin that are red and bumpy, bleed or are itchy

U.S. Tops the World in Health Care Spending


A report published in the July/August 2005 issue of the journal Health Affairs revealed that Americans spend more on health care than any other country, with expenditures that are 140 percent above the $2,193 per capita spending of the median industrialized country.

Utilizing data provided by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, researchers at Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health reviewed health care spending in 30 countries during the year 2002. They found that U.S. citizens spent an average of $5,267 per capita on health care, which is 53 percent higher than Switzerland, a country that had the second highest per capita health care expenditure of $3,446. (Full article link below)
