Chiropractic And Cancer Prevention

By Michelle Caron


Cancer is defined as abnormal, rapid, sporadic cell division which causes malignant growths or tumors. This cell division takes place in different body parts, and the cancer is named after the area affected. Many risk factors are believed to lead to cancer, even though everyone has cancer cells growing in their bodies. Harmful substances, and other abuses to the body can cause these cells to rapidly multiply, and this is when a person is diagnosed with having cancer.

There are many contributors that can lead to a person developing cancer, but no one scapegoat to take all the blame. Often there are many factors that lead to a cancer diagnosis. Carcinogens is the term used for items believed to cause cancer. People can be genetically disposed to developing certain types of cancer. Factors besides predisposition that are thought to cause cancer are: cigarette smoking, excessive use of alcohol or illegal drugs, repeated tanning bed or sun exposure, regularly eating an unhealthy diet, leading a sedentary lifestyle, living to an old age (genetic damage has more chance to build up and cause cancer cells), exposure to toxic chemicals in your work, home or leisure environments (one example is not using plastics in the microwave).

Chiropractors are experts at helping you identify possible cancer risks, and also find safe alternatives to these potentially harmful substances. Chiropractors believe in all things natural, and that goes for cancer prevention as well. In fact, creating a strong immune system and healthy body free of toxic chemicals goes a long way in preventing all types of cancer. Toxic substances lead to cancer cells, so must be avoided. Substances to avoid include: chemicals from lawn and weed sprays, preservatives and pesticides in non-organic foods, and harmful preservatives added to vaccines.

Chiropractic care to treat and prevent cancer is comprised of many types of treatments. Nutrition is looked at, and healthy food choices for fighting cancer are recommended. For example, certain nutrients, vitamins and minerals have been found effective for fighting and preventing cancer, and can be identified and sold at many chiropractic clinics. Preventing cancer and even reversing tumors is possible with certain, strict nutrition guidelines.

Healthy eating including cancer fighting foods, nutrients, vitamins and minerals can be recommended and are sometimes sold by chiropractors. Some nutrients and eating wellness plans have been found to prevent cancer, and in some instances even reverse cancer tumors. Chiropractic care naturally helps prevent and even treat cancer.
