Cancer Can Be Beaten

I am a 26 year old female who was diagnosed with cancer about 2 years ago. I was 95-100 lbs throughout all of high school then started gaining weight slowly without noticing, till it starting getting bad. So at the age of 24 my doctor told be that I had cancer and that I would have to start chemo right away. All the medications have not helped with the weight and now I'm trying to get back on track. I had a surgery to remove what they could in Dec 2010 and have been cancer free since. Health is very important and sometimes you don't realize it until it's to late.

Yes cancer can be beaten, I totally agree with you, I myself am a breast cancer survivor.. Now its time for me to get rid of the extra pounds I gained during chemo.0

I too have had breast cancer , I start my radiotherapy tomorrow, so I am having a fresh start, as I have not been able to exercise during chemo!0

Cancer and tumor cells feed on glucose. The best diet you can give yourself is low-carb (i.e. low-sugar) and a high fat diet. Especially saturated fat.0
