Cancer and Antioxidants

I recently returned from the yearly gathering of the International and American Association of Clinical Nutritionists in Baltimore, Maryland. The topic was aging. I was impressed with one of the major points of emphasis at the meeting. Dr. Steve Haltiwanger spoke on the mechanisms involved with how we get cancer and how it grows in the body. His research led him to the conclusion that priority nutrients for cancer prevention include green tea, fish oils, flavonoids, resveratrol, garlic, antioxidants such as vitamins C, E, and carotenoids, and enzymes. The reason he emphasized these compounds is because they are all powerful inflammation fighters and inflammatory activity is at the heart of cancer development. GNLD provides a rich supply of all these protective factors in such supplements as Tre, Flavonoid Complex, Allium Complex, Salmon Oil Plus, and Betagard. I will be sharing other pearls from this excellent conference in the months ahead.
