Hi there,
Because of my mother and grandmother's cancer, I have a strong wish to avoid it, naturally. I also have two daughters and a granddaughter and 2 grandsons now, so all the MORE reason for the desire to find out ALL I can for us to stay healthy...so let me share a bit of info with you in hopes it will also help you.
I've done what would amount to weeks and weeks of research over the last year regarding alternative/clinical nutrition types of approaches, I have found alot of information. I thought this might interest you: http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2005/10/1017_051017_
To be brief, I won't elaborate on the science or the findings below. Suffice it to say these discoveries have blown me away with their implications for health. I'll just give you a brief name and a link:
