Fight off cancer with safe, integrative treatments

You likely know that being overweight increases your risk for cardiovascular disease and diabetes. But did you know it also increases your risk for cancer?

If you didn't, you're not alone. While around 90% of Americans know that smoking is linked to higher rates of cancer, the inverse is true for obesity and cancer – less than 10% of us realize how fat is related to this chronic disease.

In fact, as many as 84,000 cancer diagnoses each year are linked to obesity, according to the National Cancer Institute. Excess fat also affects how cancer treatments work and may increase a cancer patient's risk of death, either from cancer or from other related causes.

The key word here is preventable. While we can't change the fact that we're all getting older (incidence rates for most cancers increase as patients age), we can change our weight through diet, exercise, sleep, and stress management.

In Surviving the Unsurvivable, Dr. Pavel Yutsis offers an original breakthrough theory he has developed about cancer. His theory maintains that cancer is a well-connected whole-body disease linked to lifestyle, diet, age, and how the different body systems function.

Yutsis has identified 10 specific factors, including genetics, sugar, obesity, stress, and toxins, that make it easier for cancer to get a foothold. He calls these elements cancer connections because they create an environment in the body that allows cancer to become more aggressive and tougher to combat. How each of these ten cancer connections is counterbalanced by the doctor’s highly effective brand of integrative medicine is discussed in detail.

Yutsis talks about the conventional trio of treatments—surgery, chemo, and radiation, accompanied by nutritional/supplement strategies that help reduce their side effects—and he concludes that these treatments are both useful and useless. He then addresses what he firmly believes are far better options for anyone struggling with cancer—the powerful, safe, integrative treatments combining conventional and alternative methods that he uses in his complementary practice, methods he first encountered when training in his native Russia where whatever helped was considered appropriate treatment.

This was not the case when he came to the United States because American medicine was then primarily focused on new drugs and high-tech diagnostic and surgical techniques. Although these methods can often be critically important, he found they did little to improve the overall survival rate from cancer, while his growing field of integrative/complementary medicine that combines conventional treatments with alternative approachehas delivered positive results in combating cancer. The doctor emphasizes that he and his colleagues in this field constitute a new breed of doctors you can turn to for affective help.

Yutsis wrote this book, he says, to make people with cancer more aware of how the benefits of this complementary route can help them survive the seemingly unsurvivable disease of cancer. Anyone searching for answers with questionable outcomes will be smart to investigate the methods reviewed in this important new book by a proven master in his field.
