It's not that hard. Your body needs fuel to function and rebuild. If you eat crap, you'll eventually feel like crap. Saying you have no time to exercise and watching two hours of television a day does not inspire compassion, sorry.
Perhaps.. there are certain cancers that can be sometimes be prevented or found very early, quit smoking, adopt a healthy diet and exercise, drinking in moderation, yearly physicals . But not all cancers are preventable. We'd like to believe that because we want to feel we're in control, we're not. I belong to a cancer survivors network, having lost my mother to uterine cancer and my BIL to esoph cancer. I can tell you that my mother lived a very healthy lifestyle, no known risk factors. The cancer boards are full of people who ate right, exercised, never smoked, no family history, never drank or only in moderation.... cancer still found them. Of course you should adopt a health lifestyle for a variety of reasons, but it doesn't mean you won't get cancer. Sure would be nice if there was a formula with a guarantee.
Wow I wonder how much research money went into this astonishing revelation?
Just what the world needs, less deaths.
For the most part, disease is not random.
Food is what makes up your body. Eat crap and you'll eventually feel like crap.
If you tell me you don't have time to exercise but you watch two hours of television a night, I will have trouble mustering compassion -- sorry.

How will the cancer industry enjoy its obscene profit margin if we actually begin to prevent cancer with healthy lifestyles?
