even though exciting progress is being made in cancer treatment, it is clear that prevention is far better than treatment. A healthy lifestyle helps to prevent cancer. Vitamins and minerals are essential. There are convincing studies that document the value of Vitamin D in decreasing the risk of developing cancer. Studies have pointed out that obesity and lack of exercise are risk factors for developing cancer. The government recently recommended weekly exercise to help prevent disease. Smoking is a huge risk for developing lung cancer. It is estimated that smoking is responsible for 30% of cancer deaths in the developed world. The TriEnergetics lifestyle program featured in our book TriEnergetics is designed to lead you into a healthier lifestyle that will decrease your risk of developing serious diseases such as cancer. The program is easy to follow, fun to do and is guaranteed to give results. Check it out.

Cancer is a fearsome disease killing more than 500,000 Americans a year. New developments in cancer research lead us to believe that in the near future most cancers will be curable. The view that a type of cancer, such as breast cancer, is homogeneous has been replaced with the knowledge that even cancers that look identical under the microscope differ in their genetic code. Cancer survival statistics obscure a wide range of outcomes. Genetic decoding is being used in a huge study sponsored by the National Institutes of health. The goal is to map the full genetic code of all human cancers. This information can then be used to map out a personalized treatment for the patient. The scope of the study is monumental, but the hope is that within a reasonable period of time new treatments targeting very specific cancer genetic codes will be available.

The market for better sex is growing rapidly. A subject that once was taboo to discuss, impotency, is now out of the closet. It is almost impossible to watch television for even a few hours without seeing an advertisement for ED. Choose your cocktail. Excuse the play on words. Do you want viagra or cealis? Perhaps you choose to respond to an ad in the paper or magazine and have a special preparation sent to you in a plain wrapper. The list goes on and on. There are herbs and nostrums and compounds. Try L-arginine, androstenedione, yohimbe, ginseng, ginko, DHEA or deer horn. The bottom line is that some of these such as viagra and cealis have been studied and are known to be effective. Others that are claimed to enhance sexual performance and sex drive, but there is little or no good scientific evidence to support their claims. The side effects of most of these compounds are largely unknown and could be serious. My recommendation is to talk to your doctor if you have a problem. Better yet get on track for better health and a better sex life by changing your lifestyle. Exercise, better eating habits and learning to deal with stress are the best and certainly the safest cure for most sexual problems.

In our book TriEnergetics we discuss the beneficial effects of exercise. There is a potential undesirable side effect of vigorous exercise, oxidative damage. Recent research has documented that this damage can be avoided by consuming potent antioxidants. For example fourteen volunteers were studied. One group consumed green tea three times daily for seven days. A control group did not drink green tea. The subjects were then asked to perform a strenuous bench-press exercise. Markers for oxidative stress were measured before and after the activity. The group who consumed green tea had significantly lower levels of blood markers that indicated oxidative tissue damage. Although this study was limited to the effect of green tea, I am certain that other potent antioxidants would show the same effect. Learn more about antioxidants in the TriEnergetics book.

Are you satisfied that you are doing all that you can to be as healthy and have as much vitality and energy as you desire? Is being overweight a problem? Have you tried one of the fad diets, lost weight and then regained it plus maybe a few pounds more? If you answer yes and are stuck looking for a solution I have answers for you with a very effective medically endorsed program that I guaranteed to work and is fun to do.  But first of all let me give you some facts.

The first problem is that we do not have an effective health care program in this country. We have what I have termed "sick care." This means to me that most people don't go to the doctor to build up their immune systems and stay healthy, rather they go when they are sick. We are putting the cart before the horse. The American life style is a problem. In this country we are first in spending on health care but second to last of the 13 wealthiest countries in average healthy days per year per person. 50 to 60% of Americans are overweight and greater than 60 million are obese carrying 2.5 billion pounds of fat. The percent of obese Americans has increased from 14% in 1980 to greater than 30% in 2000. The percent of obese children has doubled since 1980. The percent of obese adolescents has tripled. Furthermore for the first time in our history the life expectancy of our children is less than ours. This is a consequence of obesity that causes type II diabetes and other illnesses. It is estimated that obesity is responsible for 300,000 deaths annually, second only to smoking as a cause of death. The estimated cost to our health care system for obesity related illness is more than $100 billion a year.

Aren't these facts breathtaking? What is the solution? Obviously a change in lifestyle. But what do you change? How much do you need to exercise? Do you diet? What do you do about the stress in your life? How do you find the facts you need in a sea of information, advertisements and propaganda? We have studied this problem and done the homework for you. Besides my son and I, who are physicians, have consulted with a nutritionist, an exercise physiologist, 2 psychologists and a zen master. Together we have constructed a six week program that will change your life. It is easy to follow, fun to do and can be started by anyone of any age, level of physical fitness, or of health. If you follow the program you will look better, feel younger, lose weight, have more energy, improve your sex drive, lower your cholesterol and your blood pressure. We guarantee this because we have seen it happen over and over again in The TriEnergetics programs we have run. Does this interest you? I appreciate your comments.
