February is Cancer Prevention Month, which educates the public about cancer prevention and early detection. In this episode, we will talk about the Naturopathic Therapeutic Order and what type of testing you should consider doing for cancer prevention screening that is often not considered. We will discuss the 4 Pillars of Health, cleaning up your lifestyle from toxic chemicals, learning more about possible carcinogens, learning ways to screen for cancer preventatively, and the stages of cancer.
Podcast 36 Transcript
Welcome back to Physician Heal Thyself, the podcast. I’m your host, Dr. Ana Lara. We’re going to dedicate this episode to cancer awareness month, so I will share with you some daily things you should be doing to prevent cancer. So I know that some of you who are watching this have either been personally impacted by cancer or have a family or a loved one who has had cancer or even passed away from cancer. I started working with cancer patients almost five years ago. I didn’t initially see myself doing it, but that’s how life goes. I started really getting into helping patients who did have cancer. I’ll tell you, it’s always great when someone overcomes cancer, but it’s very devastating when you do lose a loved one because of cancer. It is so taxing on the individual who has the cancer themselves, but also on the family, not just financially, but emotionally and physically.
It’s a lot. One of the things that I’ve always thought about is how can we prevent people from developing cancer. Or how can we screen earlier on to see if someone does have cancer and start treating people at an earlier stage versus when they’re in stages three and four? This episode was actually a great idea by one of my patients who said, I want to learn more about what we can do every day to prevent cancer. I thought that it was a great idea for this young man to start thinking that way. I pray that more young people will listen to this and start implementing it because I see young people going down a path of disease very, very early on. One of the things that I want to talk to you about today is something that’s in naturopathic medicine. We call it the therapeutic order.
So this naturopathic therapeutic order is how we address an individual when it comes to dealing with disease. Now I have a great mentor who has been talking a lot about diseases and so forth, and he has started talking about how sometimes we normalize medical conditions. What I mean by that is that we take something like cancer that is a process, it’s a biological process. So there’s an action there, something that happened that allowed cancer to develop. We take something that’s, it’s a verb, and we make it into a noun, meaning we make this condition almost like it’s a person. People will say, my cancer or my fight against cancer, you’re fighting a person, or we see a lot of that F U cancer. It’s a person, we treat cancer like it’s a person and it’s not a person. There are various biological things physiological things that have occurred that have gotten to this point that the body developed cancer.
Cancer is not a person. We should not refer to any illness as it is a person. So we have to look at how we got to this point. How do we get to this point? Because the body gives us signs and there are symptoms that develop to say they’re signaling, saying there’s something wrong here. Unfortunately, a lot of our problems are that we are too busy to take notice of what’s going on in our physical bodies. We’re too busy, and we ignore the signs, we ignore the symptoms, we suppress them, we keep pushing through the pain, we keep pushing through that little sign that you’re getting and that sign becomes greater, bigger, louder. Then when people do go in to see a doctor because there’s something off, it’s very advanced now. Their cancers are usually in stages three and four when they are screened for and checked on.
Some cancers have certain preventative early screening guidelines for colon cancer and breast cancers, but there are a lot of cancers that do not have a screening process for preventative purposes. We will talk about many of these great, amazing topics that should bring you some education and awareness. As always, this information is not for me to treat you. I don’t know your individual health and lifestyle, only your doctor knows. You have to establish a relationship with a doctor for them to know these things. This is really for strictly educational purposes so that you are aware of what you can be doing today to prevent some of this cancer or start screening early. We’re going to talk about the therapeutic order. Like I said, it’s a naturopathic therapeutic order. There are seven steps. So, the first step is to identify and remove the causes of disease, including preventable diseases.
The second is to establish a healthy regimen. Three, stimulate the self-healing mechanisms. Four, support weakened and damaged systems. Five, correct structural integrity. That means making sure your spine and everything else is in alignment. Six is addressing pathology, and seven is suppressing pathology. We start with the least invasive and we work our way into this order. The first thing I recommend is that you find a doctor who will run a comprehensive blood test that will go outside of the conventional medical model and here’s why. It’s a very good idea to get a good baseline of where you’re at health-wise in regards to your hormones, inflammatory markers, screening for autoimmune conditions, screening for diabetes, and insulin resistance. There are also biomarker tests that you can screen for early stages of cancer. We’ll talk about that later in the episode about a particular company that I use for these biomarkers to screen for cancer.
You also want to do a screen for heavy metals and environmental toxins. Then this is a questionnaire to see if the person has had exposure. I’m going to tell you right now we’ve all had exposures in anyone living on this earth. We’ve been exposed to heavy metals and environmental toxins. It’s very difficult to avoid being exposed to them. However, how we determine if it’s a necessity to check these heavy metals and environmental toxins is if someone is having potential symptoms of it. But it doesn’t mean you can’t get checked if you’re not having symptoms. Remember, these labs are not covered by insurance. Most of the time, people pay cash for them, which actually makes it better because that puts you in the driver’s seat regarding your health. You decide to do these tests. And then right now, where you stand in terms of exposure to environmental toxins and how much of those environmental toxins are a toxic burden to your physical body.
These can include BPAs, herbicides, mitochondria markers, parabens, pesticides, phthalates, and volatile organic compounds. Mold exposure is something that I see a lot in people, organic acids, and oxidative stress profiles. There are a lot of tests that you can do that will let you know where you’re at health-wise, so if you minimize these things and improve your health, you can reduce your risk of cancer. I’m going to talk again about something I talked about early on when I put this podcast out. If you go back to episode two, I talk about the four pillars of health. Episode three talks about nutrition, and episode four talks about exercise. Episode five is on sleep and stress management. I’ll put those in the description of this episode as well. But these podcast episodes talk about the importance of those key things about nutrition.
I’m not going to talk about nutrition as it relates to cancer because I’ve done so much on other episodes that talk about the importance of cutting the shit out of your diet. It’s what it comes down to. Just cut out the junk and add the good, real food. That’s really the bottom line, that’s what you really need to be doing. A lot of people have questions about organic food versus non-organic food, and I recommend that you look at the dirty dozen. Avoid eating the dirty dozen. These are the foods that are highest in pesticides. I’ll put links on where you can find those as well in the description. There’s a clean 15. So these are the 15 foods that are clean that you don’t have to buy organic. The dirty dozen, you want to consider buying those organic or grown foods in your own yard and have a little garden for yourself, especially those foods that are highly sprayed and have pesticides in them.
Those four pillars of health are very important in the prevention of cancer as well. Now, some other things that I want to include besides those four pillars addition to that is something that’s not very easy, but we have seen more doctors and scientists research this and it’s on healthy relationships, having healthy relationships, making sure you’re taking care of your emotional health and forgiveness. I have worked with patients who’ve had cancer, and while doing these IV infusions with them, I’ll sit with them, and I’m having conversations, and they start sharing things about their life and things that led up to this point. What I find is that oftentimes there’s a lot of unforgiveness there, a lot of resentment, and a lot of emotional baggage that has never been expressed. There have been unhealthy relationships. Remember that cancer is a process. It’s a biological process that got here.
But if how you feel emotionally does not align with what is true to you and you’re not being nourished on the emotional and spiritual level, people start to be in fight or flight mode constantly and you’re stressing all the time. If you’re in a relationship that’s not healthy for you and it’s just not aligning, regardless of the work and effort, sometimes you have to make very difficult decisions and close certain doors to some relationships for your health. Literally, I’ve had young women in their early thirties have uterine cancer, and there was a lot of unforgiveness there because of the toxic relationship they had with their spouse. So instead of trying to work the issue out or getting counseling or even leaving the marriage, they stay. They force themselves to stay and their body, regardless of how healthy they were eating, this woman was eating healthy, exercising, taking all these natural things, was just taking good care of her body, but then just developed this cancer.
Unfortunately, it did take her life. This woman on her deathbed shared with me all the things that she had experienced and she was still questioning on her deathbed, how did she get here? As she started talking to me about her story, I sensed unforgiveness there. I walked her through forgiving, forgiving others, forgiving the people who intentionally hurt her and forgiving herself for not having made different decisions. Unfortunately, these things do and correlate with developing cancer. So As I said, cancer is not a person. It’s a process that has allowed itself to come to this point. Alright, so let’s move past the emotional stuff here. But it is a very important part of helping someone prevent cancer, and that is our conversation. But if you have unforgiveness, maybe it’s time for you to really lean in and start forgiving people for your good, literally for your good.
The next step I want to make sure we talk about in this conversation it’s cleaning up your life, your environment from chemicals. It is everywhere I go, everyone has their perfumes, toxic perfumes, and there is no such thing as a healthy perfume. These fragrances, these perfumes, have so many things that affect us, and people don’t think twice about it. They don’t think it hurts us. They think because they’re not ingesting it or it’s not topical in their skin. You got to understand anything that you inhale it goes in through your lungs and these things enter our bloodstream. So whether you’re inhaling the fragrance, the chemicals, whether it’s topical on your skin, you’re ingesting it. There’s exposure to these chemicals. So I immediately start telling my patients, let’s start removing fragrances. So, what fragrances are you exposed to? Daily perfumes, full-scented lotions, shampoos, conditioners, makeup, laundry, soap, fabric, and softeners of any kind, whether it’s fabric sheets or fabric softener.
There are a lot of chemicals in there that are cancer-causing any home scent diffusers unless it’s essential oils. Those are fine. If you have any aerosol sprays, there’s a Lysol, and things like that. Using these things a lot, you’re going to, some of these have chemicals that are cancer-causing, but some of these toxins, what it does if it doesn’t cause cancer, it causes a toxic burden on your body, on the major organs that help you to detoxify. And we’re going to talk about those organs. So you want to make sure you minimize your exposure to chemicals in your home, what you’re using on yourself, what you’re ingesting, and then what the fragrances are because these are hormone-disrupting and cancer-causing chemicals most of the time. So the cleaning products that you’re using around your house are detergents, just personal hygiene. Now, if you work, if the kind of work that you do is risky and it exposes you to certain chemicals like I have patients who paint, they paint houses, that’s their profession, they’re painters and they’re constantly exposed to two the smells.
I tell them, you got to make sure that you have the right gear. It’s going to minimize at least some of the exposure you’re having. Then, what we do is consider doing more frequent detoxes, and I’m going to talk about that as well. Certain detoxes are going to help the body, just to help the liver and kidneys optimally function all the time. So I’m going to provide you a page, a great website of the environmental working group. Ewg.org is a website. This is an amazing website that you can go to. You can put any product that you have at home and it will tell you everything that’s in there and the effects it has on your body. Now on the flip side, we don’t want to depress you and overwhelm you by going to the site or even by this conversation.
It will also reference you to clean products you can use to clean your home for personal hygiene. So that’s the environmental working group, ewg.org, a great website to reference. So, to go through, there’s a lot of known human carcinogens. Carcinogen is a chemical compound that has been shown to prove cancer. The ones that we know for sure, there are four of them that for sure they’re known to cause cancer. Arsenic is one of them. It’s found in soil and rock, but it can also be found in contaminated water and some food sources. Some seafood, rice, and certain mushrooms might have higher levels of arsenic. Brown rice seems to contain higher levels of it. How much rice you eat, maybe you want to soak it. But arsenic is definitely one that’s been high. By the way, these are compounds that you can test on these environmental toxins to see where you’re at.
Like I said, all of us have some exposure to these environmental toxins, but how much we have in our body is what determines what’s healthy and what’s not. So these charts that these tests that we do or that I do on patients, they’ll have a green, yellow, and red zone. So it’ll let us know you’re in the green, you have some exposure, but it’s not dangerous. If it’s in the yellow, it’s present, but we want to do something about it. And if it’s in the red, then we know for sure it’s high levels and we need to make sure that we start detoxing you to bring it down so you don’t develop health issues. The second human carcinogen that we know is benzene. This is found in gasoline, petroleum products, tobacco smoke, not just tobacco but the tobacco smoke in itself, vehicle exhaust, industrial emissions, volcanoes and forest fires.
So if you live in an area where there are volcanoes that do erupt and or have been through experienced fires, these things are released in the air. And so if you inhale these, it can put you at risk for cancer, especially lung cancer. You want to get checked out for these. Barium is another one. It’s found in a lot of aerospace aircraft, electrical, heat conduction type of things, and vinyl chloride. Vinyl chloride is used to make PVC. Any hard plastics, pipes, wire, coatings, and packaging material. We’re going to get exposure to these somehow or another, even if it’s minimal. As long as it’s minimal, it’s okay. But if it’s high levels and we definitely want to do something, there are other things that we know are possible. Carcinogens, chloroform, in a lot of industrial processing, production, coolants, dry cleaning, spot removers, pesticides, dyes, their plasticizers, DDT, is a toxic pesticide.
Then we have the polychlorinated, biphenyls, and PCBs. These are found in paints, adhesion, adhesives, any caulking compounds, printing inks, fire retardants, which are in our beds and many other things that we buy. So those are just some of the common chemicals, but some of the top chemicals that can increase people to have a risk, a high risk are also alcohol and tobacco use. I remember sitting through thousands of hours of medical school for all the different pathology types of courses, including oncology courses on every medical condition, the risk factors for all conditions, and alcohol and tobacco use was always on all of the lists. It didn’t matter if it’s diabetes or this cancer, that cancer or whatever condition. It’s like at the end of medical school, if you’re drinking alcohol or using tobacco, something’s really wrong with you. We should be educating people not to consume these.
Alcohol, it’s obviously if you’re using high levels of alcohol, if you’re having a small glass of wine, that’s not going to increase your risk substantially. But if you ask a good neurologist, they will tell you to stay away from alcohol because it’s not good for your brain. So that’s my take. Asbestos, excessive UV rays. So if you’re just exposing yourself to the sun at ridiculous amounts of time without any protection, that’s going to expose you to high risk, especially of skin cancer, insecticides, flame retardants, formaldehyde, those are all things that are top chemicals that will put you at risk for cancer. So just be conscious of what you’re putting on your body inside and outside and what you’re smelling. My biggest pet peeve and people who know me know this about me, I hate, and I don’t use the word hate too often, but I hate going to the gym and everyone is just done over in tons of perfume and cologne.
This is the worst time to be using perfume and cologne. You might not think so, you might want to smell pretty, but what is the number one thing that people in the gym are doing? They’re moving their body and they’re breathing more often than if they were not exercising. So they’re breathing in more and inhaling these perfumes and colognes. Even if it’s not me wearing them, I’m smelling them from everyone else. I’m inhaling that. Not only is it only a problem for you cancer-wise, but neurologically, it’s just these fumes that should not be there. You want to be conscious of what you’re putting in your body. I know you want to smell good, I want you to smell good. I don’t want to be next to someone who’s stinky, but be conscious of the products that you’re using. There are products out there that are more natural and safe for you to do.
Alright, we’re going to move on to what we do to screen preventatively. Now, there are some things, get your colonoscopy at age 50, get your mammogram. Mammograms are now done at 40. People used to wait until they were 50 years old to do mammograms, but now they’re moving the age and I think they’re moving the age sooner earlier because there are younger people that are developing cancer. And this to me, I know that a lot of it has to do with the environmental toxins, exposures, chemicals that are injected into our body that are put on our body that we ingest, whatever it is, these chemicals are disrupting our hormones and are causing cancer. So one of the things that I tell people is that if you know that there’s a particular type of cancer that runs in your family, be proactive. Please don’t wait until there are signs and symptoms of it.
Be proactive, do all the lifestyle modifications. But in terms of screening, age is probably the biggest, the greatest risk factor for cancer. As we get older, we have a higher risk for it, which is why many adults over the age of 50 will start to do screening for cancer. So over the age of 50, it makes us 13. Oh, not us because I’m not 50 yet, hold on. But over the age of 50, it makes people 13 times more likely to have cancer compared to people under the age of 50 13 times more. You should definitely be looking at ways to screen for it. Certain factors in addition to age 50, that further increase cancer risk is people with diabetes, obesity with a BMI over a 30. And if you currently smoke or previously smoked in your life, those will increase your risk of developing cancer more.
However, like I said, I am seeing younger people, we hear more about younger people developing cancer, and I have seen this in my clinic, seeing 20-year-olds with colon cancer or other cancers that are just not used to, we’re not used to seeing that. What might be some of these contributing factors? You might ask, what’s causing younger people or more people to have more cancer? And I really think that the number one thing is these environmental toxin exposures that we have more of now than a hundred years ago. I also think that poor diets and insufficient nutrition affect how the body functions. And so also poor sleep patterns. Young people are not sleeping enough, so the body’s not taking the time to regenerate and recover and heal at night when they’re sleeping. And also higher levels of stress.
It’s going to compromise the way your immune system functions. So you want to be considerate of those things. We’ll never step away from the four pillars of health: nutrition, exercise, sleep, and stress management. But in this one, we’re going to add environmental toxins to which you’re exposed. You want to minimize those. Earlier, I talked about some testing that, in addition to helping with preventive, is advanced biomarker testing, and I do this through a company called GRI i. GRI does us; it’s a simple blood test that screens for 50 or more types of cancers. So the cancers, the way the test works is that cancers grow in the body, right? They shed DNA and into the bloodstream. It’s through this DNA that the test is able to pick up these DNA fragments and it’s like a fingerprint to that particular cancer.
These DNA fragments let us know where it’s coming from. Is it coming from the thyroid? Is it coming from the ovaries? Is it coming from the lung? Is it coming from the skin? These DNA fragments that are tested in the blood will let us know if they’re high levels where they’re coming from. And that test will then allow me as a practitioner to say, okay, there are thyroid cells that are showing thyroid carcinoma. Let’s go do further testing or imaging to assess and to confirm if that is cancer that’s in this area, then we can start treating. The unique thing about these biomarker tests that GRI does is that it catches some of the delis cancers before you have symptoms. So what that means is that we’re catching these cancers as stages one and two. I’m going to talk about what those stages mean here in a minute, but it’s early on, we’re able to screen and if those markers come elevated, it’s early on, meaning it’s not advanced, which means it makes it easier to treat in reverse, and that person have less complications, they have a better outcome if we catch it early on.
This is true, by the way, oftentimes, cancer that’s in stages, like in the early stages, sometimes there are no symptoms. So there’s no way the person knows if they have cancer in them until they do a test like this. I think this is a great test that can help to assess a person if there are risk factors there. They can do them every year or every other year, depending on how the person feels. Unfortunately, these tests are not covered by insurance. But you know what, I think if you have a family history of particular cancer or you’re concerned, you are concerned that you may have a cancer, this is a great tool to test to do once a year or every other year and not be taken by surprise when it does show up because it’ll pick up. It’s sensitive enough that it picks up these DNA fragments early on when the cancer develops and there are no signs.
I want to talk about these stages of cancer that I mentioned. The stages of cancer are typically, it’s staged from a scale of zero to four, and the higher numbers indicate a larger tumor and more of a spread. So stage zero, there are abnormal cells that are present, but they have not spread to nearby tissue. Sometimes, this is known as carcinoma in situ, so CIS and it’s not considered cancer, but it can become cancer. Usually what happens is doctors will just monitor this to make sure it doesn’t develop into cancer. Later. My brain as a naturopathic doctor and the way I’m trained and the way I believe is I’m not going to wait for it to become cancer. This person, I’m going to go through diet lifestyle. Let’s change this. Let’s do these other tests to make sure that that’s not a contributing factor.
I want to help the person reverse these abnormal cells as soon as possible today. So I’m not going to wait. And in conventional medicine, they wait to see if it becomes cancer later. I don’t believe in wasting time. So stage one is going to be there is a tumor, it’s small and it’s contained in one area. So once again, sometimes in this stage, if it’s a tumor and they can remove it, they may remove it. They may do some radiation, or they may just observe to see what happens. So I don’t believe in waiting. Just know that in stage two, the tumor has grown larger and it’s possibly spread to nearby lymph nodes. It’s larger and it’s possibly spread to lymph nodes. It’s not confirmed. They would have to do biopsies. They can’t do a biopsy of the nearby lymph nodes or distal lymph nodes to see if there’s any spread of DNA fragments being there from the tumor.
In stage three, the tumor has grown deeper into the surrounding tissue and has potentially spread to nearby lymph nodes. Usually, stage three most likely it has spread to lymph nodes. And stage four, sorry, stage four, the cancer has spread to distant areas of the body through the blood and lymphatic system. This is also known as metastatic cancer. The cancer that started in that one area has now gotten bigger and bigger and has spread to other parts of the body. Oftentimes, it’s multiple places. Some cancers have an affinity to metastasize, to spread right to the liver, to the lungs, to another organ, to other tissues. The more that cancer spreads, the harder it is to contain. This is when people are blasted with chemo or radiation, sometimes surgery, and they’re able to remove it. I’ll tell you, I’ve talked in previous episodes about doing ozone with ultralight violet light or ebu, which is higher levels of ozone and ultraviolet light.
These help to treat any of these cancers from stage zero to stage four. But I always say, depending on how advanced that stage four is, then it’s not a guarantee. If we can treat people early on, they have a better outcome of reversing cancer. Now, I did have a patient he was stage four testicular cancer, metastasized organs, kidneys, and other areas, and this person was very dedicated did the diet. Everything I told him to do, he did it. That’s pretty much it. He did all the herbs, the diet, exercising, and everything else. We did three IVs a week of IV ozone with ultraviolet light. And every three months, we did ultrasounds, sorry, cat scans, CT scans to see where he was at in blood work. And immediately, these tumors were shrinking, guys, these tumors were shrinking. The blood work was showing normal. There was no tumor cells there.
I mean, sorry, the inflammatory markers were down. Then the tumors just kept shrinking. Shrinking. About a year or so after initially starting treatment, every single tumor was gone. So, that was probably one of the most advanced and difficult cases. But these things can be reversed and I would prefer people start early on screening for it. I want to start wrapping up here. I’m going to provide you guys with several resources to turn to. And I just want to review that therapeutic order once again. We identify and remove the causes of disease. Meaning we have to identify by blood work where you’re at health-wise, and what the risks can contribute to developing cancer. For this particular topic that we’re having, removing the causes of disease, those environmental chemicals, exposures the poor diet. Those are going to be big things that you start removing the things that are causing imbalance in your body.
A cancer cell does not start from one day to the next. It is a process that happens daily. The decisions that you make daily are going to impact the risk factors of cancer, regardless of what your genetic makeup is. Start establishing a healthy regimen, create a healthy diet, start planning, start exercising, even if it’s 20, 30 minutes a day does not have to be two hours at the gym. Start developing healthy relationships in your life. If there’s unforgiveness, let it go. Really pray to allow yourself to work through forgiveness and align with relationships that align with who you are and resonate with who you are. Start creating healthy sleep regimens, exercise, nutrition, and stress management, and then stimulate the health healing mechanisms. This is where I talk about how, aside from the diet and the herbs, it helps your body detoxify.
Exercising helps you to detoxify. You’re sweating. There’s blood and lymph that’s moving, you’re sweating, you’re pushing toxins out. That’s a really good thing. But consider detoxing at least twice a year, every six months. Our livers do so much for us, and if we add things to our body that add more of a burden to it, it will be very difficult for these detox organs to work. Some of the detox organs that I want you to know about are our liver, our kidneys, our colon pushes toxins out, our skin, and our lungs; when we exhale, we push toxins out. There are different types of detoxes out there. And I’ll do another conversation on detox because there are a lot of things over the counter, but there are medical-grade herbal detoxes that I like to put my patients on to get a really good thorough cleanse at least every six months.
For someone who does work in a job where they’re constantly exposed to chemicals, every three months, you should do a detox because of your exposure to it, unless you change your job. That’s the only way around that. Support the weakened and damaged systems. The only way if a system is weakened or damaged is to do the blood work to know which organ or what’s going on in your body that’s imbalanced. If you’re deficient in vitamin D, guess what? You want to have good levels of vitamin D because vitamin D is also cancer-protective, and there are a lot of vitamins, nutrients, and many things in our bodies that are helping us to prevent cancer. Antioxidants help clean up our cells from damage, you want to find out what those systems are and which systems are weakened or damaged.
The next one corrects the structural integrity. Why is it important to have proper alignment? Well, our brain and the spinal cord are all part of the structure, and if there’s a kink anywhere in that structure, it will not send the right information to the organ to function optimally. So that’s why getting a good adjustment by good chiropractors is a good thing to do, at least a couple times a month, at least once a month, addressing pathology and suppressing pathology. That’s when there’s actual illness. This conversation is about preventing cancer, not treating cancer. So we hope not to have to address and suppress symptoms or pathology at this point if you’re doing the other five. As we wrap here up, find a doctor, someone who’s going to really is willing to do a full health assessment of where you’re at and be willing to invest.
Also, I think that’s where a lot of people are hung up. Does my insurance cover this? Well, no. But if you were to find that some things are out of balance and could lead to cancer, wouldn’t you want to know that now instead of in 10 years or five years? Then you really need to have insurance to cover chemotherapy and all the numerous visits and invasive treatments that you’ll need. Sometimes, we need to invest upfront in our health, so make sure you’re avoiding those toxins. Do a quality detox every six months minimum. By avoiding those heavy toxins that burden the liver, the kidneys, the lungs, the colon, and the skin, you have a much better outcome in health. So, hey, I know we talked a lot about this information. I’m going to be posting a lot of links on here for you guys to reference. But if you have any questions about seriously working on the preventative side of preventing Cancer, reach out. Go to my website and schedule a free 15-minute phone consultation and learn how there are some ways that you may be able to prevent cancer for yourself. So in honor of Cancer Awareness Month, I wanted to bring this episode to you as education and some things that you can take away to start implementing today. Until next time, be blessed.
