This great information. I am a cancer survivor. I had a liposarcoma in my right thigh. I was active duty Air Force and a Firefighter at the time. My experience follows your research closely. A couple of things I found in my research also showed the stress increases our chances. Antioxidants help to cleanse our systems. Cancer flourishes in acidic bodies but water helps to neutralize the body. My guess is the alkaline water bottles may help to neutralize it as well. My cancer was in 2005-2006. I had local radiation which shrank the tumor significantly. The surgery in March 2006 was very successful. I was able to stay active military until I retired in December 2007. I have been continuing my career as a contractor overseas. I am very conscious of the food I put in my body. My wife is a vegan, a great influence for me. My diet is more vegetable and fruit than anything. I rarely eat meat but if I do it is fish. The Mediterranean diet make a lot of sense to me. I’m also conscious of the medicine/chemicals I add to my body.
I’m a 51 year old fire chief in Iraq. I am very interested in your workout program and any and all literature you put out. I’m building a fire dept and will have 33 firefighters to lead. Anything that keeps us healthy and strong, I’m all for.
Great work here. Keep it up.

Great artical though for sure. That’s why I want to improve my cardio health.
