Do you want to feel vibrant, look your best and perhaps save your life? This week's guests on "Happiness through Hardship" - The Podcast can help you do just that! I'm honored to share this episode with husband and wife duo and co-authors of "Anticancer Living - Transform Your Life and Health with the Mix of Six," who have helped many people, including me, thrive with cancer, cope with other chronic illnesses and feel their very best!This is a must-listen episode - the conversation is filled with enlightening facts and incredibly inspiring information. After my second cancer diagnosis, I was looking for things I could do on top of my medical treatment to help myself heal. That’s when I started to learn about “anticancer living.” It wasn’t just one way - it was a few. Today’s guests talk about how it’s a "mix of six," the "synergy of changing your lifestyle in a number of areas makes each change more effective than it would be on its own."I'm living proof of this. For me, these changes, led to big shifts…and now seven years later I’m thriving and still embracing a very healthy lifestyle. That's why I'm excited and grateful to share this episode.

31. Dr. Lorenzo Cohen & Alison Jeffries: Anticancer Living - Transform Your Life with the Mix of Six

In this University of Texas Rio Grande Valley-produced show, UTRGV professor Dr. John Cook interviews authors of non-fiction books. (Recorded March 3, 2018)

Anticancer Living: Transform Your Life And Health With The Mix Of Six

Despite the hundreds of billions of dollars spent in the last 50 years on cancer research, cancer remains one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Within the next 20 years, the number of new cancer cases is expected to increase by 70 percent. In the U.S., one in two men and one in three women will be diagnosed with cancer in their lifetime. But most people don’t realize they can reduce their risk of getting cancer and improve their chances of surviving a cancer diagnosis by making six fundamental changes in their lifestyle.In their new book, ANTICANCER LIVING, Lorenzo Cohen, PhD, director of the Integrative Medicine Program at the Center; and Alison Jefferies, Med, show that by focusing on social and emotional support, stress management, sleep, exercise, diet, and minimizing exposure to environmental toxins, 50 to 70 percent of cancer can be prevented and cancer survivors can live longer and better lives. People are waiting for a cure to cancer, when the most promising antidote is already here, and it doesn’t come in a syringe or a pill.Lorenzo Cohen and Alison Jefferies answer questions such as:· What exactly is the “Mix of Six” and how does it work in concert with conventional cancer treatments like chemotherapy or radiation?· Is there really evidence that lifestyle change makes a difference?· Isn’t it enough to eat less junk food and exercise regularly?· Can high stress really counteract the benefits of eating a healthy diet?· Cancer is a terrifying thought, but it seems like there’s not much we can do to avoid it, beyond avoiding tobacco or other carcinogens. Isn’t it, to some extent, genetic?· You rank social and emotional support and stress reduction as higher than diet and exercise – why?· Environmental toxins we can’t see surely affect our health, but is there much the layperson can do about it?In a society that remains embedded in an illness model of health care, ANTICANCER LIVING empowers us to engage pro-actively and with optimism, built on a belief that self-care is health care and that greater wellness is available to us all.ABOUT THE AUTHORSLorenzo Cohen, PhD, is the Richard E.
