Cancer Patients: DON’T Choose This Killer Treatment!

Dear Living Well Daily Reader,
If you’ve been diagnosed with cancer, it can feel like you’re carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders.
The countless decisions about treatment… the input from doctors and family and friends… and not to mention the treatments themselves.
But now there’s something else you need to know.
Cancer patients have ANOTHER deadly risk to fight, thanks to this mainstream killer treatment.
I’ll tell you exactly what it is… and how you can stay safe.
In a terrifying new turn in cancer research, scientists have discovered that revealed that it isn’t just cancer that’s killing you… it’s something else is too.
In a study published in the European Heart Journal, scientists followed over 3 million cancer patients for 40 years… and they found something SHOCKING.
Patients weren’t dying from their cancer… they were dying from heart disease instead.
Tragically, 1 in 10 cancer patients are dying from this completely unexpected cause… because they simply can’t win.
You see, cancer patients are 2 to 6 TIMES more likely to die from heart disease than non-cancer patients.
But this isn’t all the study uncovered. It gets worse.
Heart disease isn’t just killing them… it’s killing them FASTER than the cancer can, especially in older patients.
Why is this happening?
There are many theories, but the truth is this: many common chemo drugs are TOXIC to the heart.
And chemotherapy also destroys your microbiome, the collection of bacteria in your guts that boost your immune systems and control harmful inflammation—the root cause of many diseases, including heart disease AND cancer.
In other words, chemotherapy can do A LOT of damage… often more than the good.
The answer is simple, however, and kills two birds with one stone: take care of your whole body.
Eat the right foods, get enough exercise, reduce stress, get enough sleep, and take a good quality multi-vitamin.
And if you get diagnosed with cancer, be sure to talk to your doc about ALL treatment options before agreeing to chemo.
P.S. If you’ve undergone chemo treatment and you want to help your body bounce back, check out this powerful solution that can reduce and even possibly reverse damage.
