The Anti-Cancer Shopping List for Living an Active, Healthy Life

 

Eating the wrong foods can make you sick. Here’s a list of the best foods for living an active, healthy life that will stop cancer and a bunch of other diseases dead in their tracks

“Each patient carries his own doctor inside him.” ― Norman Cousins

 

It’s unfortunate that people see illnesses such as cancer as a treatable condition - not a preventable one.

 

They find false comfort knowing that modern medicine has found a way to deal with most illnesses.

 

But there’s a downside to using this as a safety net for making poor lifestyle choices.

 Even though medical science has come a long way, it shouldn’t be an excuse to eat unhealthy foods that destroy you from within.

 

 Joe Cross, creator of the film “Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead”, was a prime example of this.

 

 He was morbidly obese, riddled with autoimmune disease and used medications as a crutch to support his lifestyle.

 

In time, however, Joe realized that the medicine he took to suppress his inflammatory response could only get him so far. 

 

It only dealt with the symptoms of his ailing health, but it didn’t target the root cause of his REAL problems.

 

He knew that if he continued on his path, he was headed for an early grave. 

 

That was when Joe decided to leave behind his addiction to “Frankenstein Foods” and never look back again.

 

Over the next couple of months, he ate whole, unprocessed foods to cleanse his body.  Instead of taking medication, he used these foods to flush out the substances that were wrecking his immune system

 

Eventually, he finally beat his autoimmune disease, lost a ton of weight and now lives a fuller, healthier life.

 

What makes food bad: The Food Industry’s Hidden Agenda

 

The problem with most food today is that they’re basically devoid of any nutritional value.

Food companies design their products to elate the senses to an unhealthy degree. This is so you won’t want to stop binging until you’re disgusted with yourself.

 

It’s no wonder so many people are suffering like Joe did.

 

When food is chemically built from the ground up to hijack your hardwired biological instincts...

 

...your judgment becomes skewed.

 

Like a lab rat pressing the food lever until it’s dead, we’re walking science experiments. 

 

We happily chow down on unhealthy food until something like cancer gets in the way. 

 

And one of the reasons why processed food is so bad is because they mess with your gut health.

 

Deep in your small intestine, you’ll find a protective layer that keeps you from getting sick. 

 

This is called the gut barrier. It's made up of mucus, gastric acids and a wall of epithelial cells known as enterocytes.

 

Together, they work to keep out foreign invaders like viruses and bacteria.

 

This is the only thing standing between your bloodstream and potentially fatal toxins. 

 

And eating the wrong food upsets the delicate balance of the healthy bacteria in your gut, weakening your built-in force field.

 

And once these malevolent invaders break inside, they’re free to do whatever they want. 

 

For instance, they can make your immune system go nuts and start producing autoantibodies.

 

Think of these as an overzealous security team that’s gone rogue.

 

Once they detect a threat, they shoot everything on sight, including innocent bystanders. 

 

For instance, the healthy tissue that makes up your vital organs gets caught in the crossfire as well. 

 

This process fuels autoimmune disease, which can lead to serious consequences - inflammation being the most common one.

 

In a nutshell, inflammation happens when your immune system is on high alert all the time.

 

When certain foods “force” it to deal with perceived threats round the clock, it will eventually run itself to the ground.

 

And as you’ve guessed, long-term inflammation is not a good thing.

 

This doesn’t just open the door to cancer, but other equally life-threatening conditions.

 

Diabetes, cardiovascular disease, Alzheimer’s and dementia are just the tip of a very ugly iceberg.

 

That said, switching to the right food is the best way to take back your immune system and stop it from turning on yourself.

7 Antioxidant Anti-Inflammatory Foods That Boost Your Health

Type 2 diabetes, plaque build-up in arteries (causing stroke and heart attack), arthritis, many cancers, high blood pressure, and even obesity could all be avoided if your body didn’t suffer inflammation and oxidation. That’s why it’s so important to include antioxidant and anti-inflammatory foods in your diet. Now, I’m going to reveal to you the most powerful antioxidant anti-inflammatory foods I know that will boost your health.




Almost all modern diseases are completely or partly caused by inflammation and oxidation.

Type 2 diabetes, plaque build-up in arteries (causing stroke and heart attack), arthritis, many cancers, high blood pressure, and even obesity could all be avoided if your body didn’t suffer inflammation and oxidation.
That’s why it’s so important to include antioxidant and anti-inflammatory foods in your diet.

The good news… in today’s article I’m going to reveal the most powerful antioxidant anti-inflammatory foods I know. And you can find all of them (usually dirt cheap) in your local supermarket or health food store.

Antioxidant Anti-Inflammatory Foods #1 - Sauerkraut: 

With a name that wants you to lick your lips, this fermented cabbage treat is not only a powerhouse of vitamins but also full of live cultures that help cure stomach illness. Go for homemade, organic, or pure sauerkraut for best results.

Antioxidant Anti-Inflammatory Foods #2 - Kefir: 

Kefir is a tangy, protein-rich fermented beverage with a host of probiotic bacteria to delight your gut microbes. Even for those who have lactose intolerance, kefir is available in mixtures of water or coconut water instead of milk.

Antioxidant Anti-Inflammatory Foods #3 - Pickles: 

The fermented ones, instead of the vinegar-based pickles are the real deal. The fermented variety has beneficial bacteria but make sure that the pickle does not contain artificial color, flavor or additives.

Antioxidant Anti-Inflammatory Foods #4 - Greek yogurt: 

Fermented milk products like kefir might not be for everyone, but yogurt is a simple and delicious choice for most people. Milk and live yogurt cultures should ideally be the only ingredients in Greek yogurt for best benefits.

Antioxidant Anti-Inflammatory Foods #5 - Kimchi: 

Kimchi might not be as well-known as sauerkraut but its benefits are even more powerful, considering that it has the added benefits of garlic, ginger and scallions, apart from live culture.

Antioxidant Anti-Inflammatory Foods #6 - Kombucha: 

This famous Chinese fermented drink is known to boost energy levels, help in weight loss, and overall wellbeing. It is made by fermenting sweetened black tea with yeast and bacteria.

Antioxidant Anti-Inflammatory Foods #7 - Miso: 

A paste made of fermented soybeans, salt and a type of fungus called kojikin, this Japanese delicacy can be added to soups or stews to get its benefits.

This post is from the Oxidized Cholesterol Strategy Program created by Scott Davis. He once suffered from High Cholesterol so much that he even had a severe heart attack. This is what essentially led him to finding healthier alternatives to conventional medication.

The program is highly focused on eliminating one simple ingredient you consume every single day, an ingredient you had no idea you were even putting it your body.  What’s scary is that this ingredient isn’t even listed on the label of many common food choices. It’s terrifying stuff! So, this system starts you off with valuable information about this one simple ingredient, what it’s doing to your body and what you can do about it. But it doesn’t end there.

The Oxidized Cholesterol Strategy goes on to teach you a wide range of diet, fitness, lifestyle, exercise, sleep and eating tips that will help you maximize your results. More importantly, these tips will help completely clean out any plaque build-up in your arteries.
