  11. The Power of Life is in Life • FRESH fruits and vegetables provide thousands of life-giving substances that cannot be found in processed foods or pills • Plants have qualities that allow them to withstand disease, drought, intense sunlight, extreme temperatures, bugs, etc. • Processing, pasteurizing, canning, cooking, baking etc. destroy much if not all of the life-protecting qualities in live foods Processed foods taste good and make the manufacturer a lot of money, but degrade our bodies ability to stay strong

  22. “As a man thinks, so is he.” More research is showing a strong correlation between physiology and psychology Fact: A negative, stressful attitude weakens the immune system

  23. Condition your body with exercise • In 2005 the Journal of American Medical Association reported that walking just 3 – 5 hours a week could boost a woman’s breast cancer survival rate by 50% • Exercise at least 20 mins 3 days per week by walking or working out: • Reduce anxiety or depression • Reduce fatigue • Reduce risk of heart disease • Improve blood flow • Improve self-esteem

  24. You should sleep on it • Strive for 8 hours of sleep per day: • While sleeping the body creates melatonin which has anti-oxidant properties • Lack of sleep impacts the body’s ability to create melatonin and cortisol which regulates the activities of the immune system and the cells that fight off cancerous cells
