The anticancer home

Many of our patients are striving to fight off cancer, bolster overall health and improve their quality of life. A big part of that process is ridding their bodies of cancer-causing toxins.

But one key area that is often overlooked is the numerous unseen dangers lurking in our homes and offices. I often liken these living environments to fishbowls. If you don’t change the water and clean the bowl frequently, the gunk builds up and the fish become sick and die.

The same goes for creating a toxin-free environment conducive to healing and recovery. Failure to “clean house” can seriously undermine all the treatments, dietary changes and detoxification protocols you and your medical team are working so diligently on. A clean home—a toxin-free sanctuary—is a necessary ingredient in the recipe for wellness. Fortunately, you can easily start creating an anticancer living environment today.

Our ancestors had it easy

Things are very different in our world than they were 100 years ago. After all, there was no such thing as electromagnetic pollution, and chemical toxins were not nearly as abundant as they are today. As a result, the incidence of all types of diseases, from autoimmune disease to heart disease and cancer, has been skyrocketing.

Once thought to be a disease that mainly afflicted older people, cancer is now seen more prevalently in children and young adults. If we want to survive as a species, we need to open our eyes and start doing everything in our power to “clean up our fishbowls” and remove as many toxins as possible from our indoor and outdoor environments.
