National Cancer Institute 2006 - results from a composite of several different studies.*

Avoidable Causes of Cancer - % of Cancer Deaths

Smoking 33%
Obesity and inactivity 25%
Nutrient deficits and poor diet 16% - fat content should be less than 25% of total calories...add a zero to the fat weight on the label to derive calories of fat (each gram of fat has a lot of calories, so just because we are told a product is low in fat, the calories per gram of fat could be outrageous); high fiber; lots of vegetables and fruits; avoid canning because it removes micro-nutrients; a daily multivitamin is vital; flaxseed oil is the best kind of oil to take.
Chronic viruses and other infections 7%
Environmental pollution in foods, air and water 5% - purewaterinc.com: home distiller with solvent vent that vents outside the house which is 0-15 parts per million; reverse osmosis 30 parts per million; public water 300-600 parts per million.
Sunlight 2% - avoid sunlight from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Prescription drugs 2%
Illicit drugs and excess alcohol 1% - cheap wines contain much more toxins than high quality wine.
Radon gas 1%
Radiation 1%

Unavoidable Causes of Cancer

Genetic defects 2%
Unknown causes 5%

Conclusion: you can avoid 93% of all cancers.

Six Main Factors that Fatten Us Up:

1. Decline of mitochondria

2. Decline of the hormone cascade

3. Loss of insulin efficiency (rise of insulin resistance)

4. Sedentary lifestyle

First, your stomach has to be completely empty for an exercise to go after body fat. Second, the exercise must be for at least 20 minutes for hormonal changes to take effect. Third, muscle needs to be maintained, so lifting weights is essential.

5. Processed garbage foods

Use only certified produce and meats and wild fish to avoid dangerous pesticides. Most bread products have almost no nutritional value. Low glycemic foods:

Soybeans, peanuts, agave juice, 0% fat milk, squash, cucumber, cherry, grapefruit, plum, strawberry, pear, apple, barley, kidney beans, green beans, lentils, chickpeas, split peas, rice bran.

Very low glycemic: broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, lettuce, peppers, onions, radishes.

6. Emotional disorder

To become slim and stay that way, you have to change the way that your body and mind react to food. Your body will react to food differently when it is slimmer. A man should have less than 18% body fat and a woman less than 22%. You can manually affect 1,2,3 and 4 with supplements, but just eat a proper diet. And read God's Word to influence 6.
