Thousands of cancer cases caused by diet, alcohol and obesity, experts warn
article in the Telegraph
Extract:
"Cancer is not 'an act of God' in most cases and individuals can take action to dramatically reduce their chances of developing the disease, worldwide experts said.
After smoking, obesity, diet and physical activity are major causes of cancer and 39 per cent of the top 12 cancers in the UK could be prevented, the World Cancer Research Fund report said.
This equates to around 79,000 cases that could be prevented each year in the UK out of a total of around 289,000 new cases diagnosed each year.
If nothing is done to reduce cancer rates then 'this tide will engulf us', Prof Sir Michael Marmot, chairman of the expert panel said."
The experts are still not telling the truth about obesity and cancer. The main reason that both of these and many other related illnesses are on the increase is the misinformation about the causes of obesity and how to reduce/prevent it.
All that is necessary to curb the growing incidence of obesity is to tell the truth about what causes it! - Obesity is NOT caused by overeating. It is caused by fluid retention, frequently because of taking prescribed medications, especially steroids such as prednisolone, prednisone and HRT, and anti-depressants such as amitriptyline. (When doctors prescribe drugs that cause sodium retention and water retention they should warn the patient not to eat salt, or food containing salt, while taking the medication. When they do not give this warning, the inevitable consequence is considerable weight gain.)
Obesity can be easily reduced by seriously reducing your salt/sodium intake and eating plenty of fruit and fresh vegetables. - It is important not to restrict calories. - 'Slimming' or 'dieting' is unnecessary, ineffective and often harmful.
Lose weight, reduce your risk of most cancers, high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, heart disease, heart attack, vascular dementia, stroke, osteopenia, osteoporosis, hypercholesterolaemia, depression, liver and kidney problems, and improve your health in many other ways without drugs, hunger or expense by eating less salt! - Try it! - You will feel so much better!
