37: Daily Habits to Prevent and Fight Cancer!

37: Daily Habits to Prevent and Fight Cancer!

 

Today's podcast episode with Keith Bishop is a simple reminder that we can fight cancer or lower cancer risk through our daily habits.

My takeaway today was that let's not make cancer prevention too complicated; there are simple habits we can incorporate daily that can knock down our risk.

1. Move a bit more each day.
2. Cut back on sugar and alcohol.
3. Don't drink super-hot beverages (darn it! I love my piping hot tea 😊)

Keith also told me that while colon cancer risk seems to be going down for older folks, colon cancer in younger people is on the rise. Why?

Keith believes a sedentary lifestyle is a significant contributor. 

What that means to me is Get Up and Move, even if you add only a few sets of stairs or a quick walk after dinner.

My biggest takeaway from this conversation with Keith is that small changes can make a HUGE health impact!

I love using Bison! It's very nutrient dense and contains conjugated linoleic acid (I know, what the heck does that mean?), which means Bison has anti-inflammatory properties.

Here are the other reasons why I love using Bison in place of ground beef:

1. Higher amounts of omega three fatty acids.
2. More b12, zinc, iron, and selenium than beef.
3. Some studies show it's got four times the vitamin E compared to beef.
4. Lower in calories and cholesterol.
5. It is lower fat, so it will cook faster than ground beef.

My friends at BB are offering a deal that they've never offered to anyone! I had to say "pretty please" a couple of times, and guess what? It worked! I can't tell you how long they will offer this deal to me, but here it is:
