Fight Cancer -Fend Off World's Second Biggest Killer

How will it be done? The answer is through diet & lifestyle changes. The word 'cancer' is enough to stroke fear in anyone. There is no cure for the disease according to doctors. It is reported that every 10 seconds, someone dies of (lung) cancer somewhere in the world. The World Health Organisation (WHO) estimates that almost half a million people die from the disease each year in Europe alone. What is alarming that this dreaded disease is now a growing problem in Asean countries like Malaysia. Figures culled from Press reports show that there was an almost 40% increase in cancer rates in Malaysia from 1990 to 1996. Statistics figures obtained from the Ministry of Health show that Government hospitals throughout the country recorded a total of 11,655 admossions and 1335 deaths for cancer in 1996. Today, cancer is the second biggest killer in the country after road accidents. Every year, some 30,000 new cases continue to be detected in the country. (This figures does not include those who seek help from traditional healers, private hospitals & clinics)
Worldwide, cancer strikes 10 million people and claims 6.3 million lives a year. The WHO has rated it as the second leading killer disease (after coronary heart disease) and has warned that cancer cases are expected to double globally during the next 25 years.
This is hardly suprising when one considers that carcinogens are so prevalent in the enviroment - some examples are tobacco, radiation, asbestos, pesticides, benzene, formaldehyde, steroids, PCBs, air polution and even glues and solvents, municipal incinerators, toxic waste dumps and electromagnetic fields
