Delay and Prevent Cancers
Improve the Quality of Life
The must-read summary of “Anticancer Living: Transform Your Life and Health with the Mix of Six,” by Lorenzo Cohen, PhD and Alison Jefferies, MEd.
Cancer is the second-leading cause of death In the United States. One-third of American women and one-half of American men can expect to develop cancer.
A cancer diagnosis was once a death sentence. But this has changed over the past 20 years. Recent research shows changing our lifestyle choices can (1) improve the quality of life, (2) increase the chances of survival, and (3) aid in the healing process for cancer patients.
This book provides a prescriptive guide to wellness based on the latest scientific findings and clinical trials. It introduces the concept of the Mix of Six — the six key lifestyle factors that work together to promote an optimal environment for preventing and healing cancer. These six lifestyle factors are social connectedness, stress, sleep, exercise, diet, and exposure to environmental toxins. The synergy created by these six factors can delay or prevent many cancers, support conventional treatments, and significantly improve the quality of life for cancer patients.

Cancer is the second-leading cause of death in the United States. 33 percent of women and 50 percent of men can expect to develop cancer. Although most cancer strike when we’re older, some are affecting people at younger ages. The medical establishment responds to this uptick of cancers in the young by calling for earlier screening. But early detection isn’t always the best or only answer. Sometimes, early detection can lead to overtreatment with no survival benefits. A better way is to prevent or delay the onset of cancers, especially the types that strike young people.
In the early 1960s, the United States faced a public health crisis brought on by cigarette smoking. Surgeon General Luther Terry showed that cigarette smoking is the primary cause of lung cancer and the 70 percent higher rates of mortality for smokers versus nonsmokers. Since then, publicised lawsuits against tobacco companies have kept up public awareness of the causal link between tobacco and cancer. Yet today, 15 percent of the U.S. population still smokes and the percentage of smokers remain high in many Asian, African, European, and Middle Eastern countries.
Although the rates of lung cancer among American men have declined, the rates of lung cancer among American women — who smoked later than men — continued to rise through 2000 and have just declined. This is because lung, throat, esophageal, and other tobacco-related cancers are common among the elderly, and so women who smoked during the 1960s and ‘70s may just now be facing the cancer-related consequences.
