59 - BACKSTRETCH: OPTIMIZE DIET, EXERCISE & ATTITUDE
Submitted by Dr. Robert F. Lane on
The cancer treatment is over and much of the medical professionals disappear or move only into a surveillance mode. There is growing information to suggest that lifestyle, nutrition, exercise and attitude can affect gene expression and cell behavior of both healthy, not so healthy and malignant cells - upregulating or down regulating certain cellular behaviors by affecting their microenvironments through a mechanism called epigenetics. While special diets cannot cure cancer, they may have a role in keeping it at bay and preventing it from regrowing.
