How Not to Have Cancer is a practical, evidence-informed guide to everyday habits that can support healthier metabolism, nutrition, movement, sleep, immune function, gut health, stress management, and long-term wellbeing.
This book explores 21 practical lifestyle principles, including maintaining healthy blood sugar and insulin regulation, strength training, daily walking, eating fiber-rich and cruciferous vegetables, reducing highly processed foods, choosing antioxidant-rich whole foods, supporting the gut microbiome, protecting sleep, consuming omega-3-rich foods, managing stress, and reducing exposure to known carcinogens.
You'll also discover what current research says about popular wellness topics such as medicinal mushrooms, matcha tea, vitamin C, turmeric, ginger, sunlight, deep breathing, prayer and gratitude, and parasite prevention-including where evidence is promising, where it is limited, and where popular claims go too far.
