About Prevention
Even the FDA has agreed that antioxidants act as cancer preventatives. Cantron and Protocel are some of the most powerful antioxidants so they can be used as a preventative, but some people don’t like them because they are not natural treatments. When taking them as a preventative, you don’t have to avoid all the things that interfere with them.
.
Paw Paw and Graviola are not good preventatives they seem to target your fast growing digestive system cells.
.
Ellagic acid is a good preventative for these cancers: Breast, Cervical, Colon, Esophageal, lukemia, Liver, Lung, Pancreatic, Prostate, Skin, and Tongue
.
Cesium chloride with potassium is a good general preventative as is laetrile. All together, that makes five alternative cancer treatments that act to prevent cancer. Which one will work best with you unique body chemistry? Once again, the only way to tell is to test each on your body.

Wearing Brassieres for Extended Periods
An extensive study of over 4700 women (2056 previously diagnosed with breast cancer, 2674 never diagnosed with breast cancer) was run by authors Sydney Ross Singer and Soma Grismaijer that indicated a positive correlation between breast cancer and the length of time that women wore bras per day.
.
Those who wore a bra all day-long (defined in the study as any period more than 12 hours) had statistically 21 times greater risk of breast cancer than those who only wore a bra for only part of the day (defined in the study as any period up to 12 hours). Women who wore their bras all day and night (essentially 24 hours per day) had a 5 times greater chance of developing breast cancer than those who wore it all day-long.
The study conjectured that wearing a bra may constrict the flow of lymph fluid in the breast, which then causes the higher risk of breast cancer. Lymph fluid is the natural watery fluid which surrounds and bathes cells in body tissues.
.
Lymph fluid carries disease-fighting cells and helps remove accumulated toxins, some of which may be carcinogenic (cancer-causing). The impaired flow of lymph fluid is thought to allow toxins to build up, thus causing breast tissue cells to be exposed to higher concentrations of cancer-causing toxins for longer periods of time. The study suggested that women wear their bras for fewer hours, thus giving their breasts time to "recover" and also not wearing bras that feel constrictive or tight.

Sunlight
In the 15 June 2005 issue of Cancer Research , the researchers, at Northern California Cancer Center found that men with high sun exposure had half the risk of prostate cancer than did men with low sun exposure. This research may have been started due to a small study in 1959. Jane C Wright, directing cancer research at Bellevue Memorial Medical Center in New York City, was fascinated by the light ideas of John Ott DSc. Advised by Ott, Dr Wright instructed fifteen cancer patients to stay outdoors as much as possible that summer in natural sunlight without wearing their glasses, and particularly without sunglasses. By that Autumn, the tumors in 14 of 15 had not grown, and some patients had got better. Ott wondered why the fifteenth had not benefited. He discovered that this woman had not fully understood the instructions - while she had not worn sunglasses, she had continued to wear her prescription glasses. This blocking of UV into her eyes was enough to stop the benefits enjoyed by the other fourteen.

No Association between Melanoma and UV Exposure
From the February 2006 Newsletter of the Vitamin D Council
.
A large, multi-center European study, perhaps the best study ever done on the subject, "found no association between melanoma and risk factors related to UV exposure such as sunbed use, sunbathing, or number of weeks of holidays in sunny areas." In fact, the authors found sunbed use was associated with a small decreased risk for melanoma! They also found that sun bathing and sunburns were not associated with melanoma. Fair skin and the number of moles were the major risk factor for melanoma, not sunbeds, and sunshine. They even found some evidence of decreasing risk with increasing sunbed use, concluding "The observed decrease in risk (of melanoma) with increasing use (of sunbeds) suggest either a protective effect or could be explained by recall bias with cases under reporting their true exposure."

Vitamin D
From the Vitamin D Council web site: Most people are know about vitamin D and calcium absorption however, few are aware of the recent research on vitamin D and the widening range of therapeutic applications available for cholecalciferol, which can be classified as both a vitamin and a pro-hormone.
.
Dosage
We now realize that the Food and Nutrition Board's previously defined Upper Limit (UL) for safe intake at 2,000 IU/day was set far too low and that the physiologic requirement for vitamin D in adults may be as high as 5,000 IU/day, which is less than half of the >10,000 IU that can be produced endogenously with full-body sun exposure.

A Good Prevention for Many Diseases
With the discovery of vitamin D receptors in tissues other than the gut and bone—especially the brain, breast, prostate, and lymphocytes—and the recent research suggesting that higher vitamin D levels provide protection from diabetes mellitus, osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, metabolic syndrome, depression, several autoimmune diseases, and cancers of the breast, prostate, and colon, we can now utilize vitamin D for a wider range of preventive and therapeutic applications to maintain and improve health.

Cancer Rates Dramatically Reduced
From the Knowledge of Health web site: Researchers at the University of California San Diego wrote a report that reviewed 63 published papers. The report revealed that cancer rates can be dramatically reduced by raising blood levels of vitamin D beyond dietary levels with the use of vitamin pills. Large portions of human populations, especially in northern latitudes and people with darkly-pigmented skin, have very low circulating levels of vitamin D.
Therapeutic use of vitamin D in active cases of cancer has been shown to reduce or stabilize PSA in some prostate cancer patients. [Nutrition Cancer 51:32-6, 2005]

Vitamin D Is Cheap
The federal daily recommended dose of 400 UI has been strongly criticized as being way too low.
The lower recommended daily dose of 2000 UI only costs $5 for 120 pills (two months) 4 cents per pill.
.
The higher recommended size 5000 UI only costs $22 for 250 pills (four months) 9 cents per pill (a better buy per UI).
