Stop Liver Cancer With This WEIRD Trick

There’s no such thing as “good” cancer.
But let’s face it… liver cancer is especially bad.
Once liver cancer spreads, your chances of living five years plummet to around 11%.
I don’t like those odds — so let’s change them.
Researchers have stumbled upon an incredibly simple way to lower your chances of ever getting liver cancer.
It only takes a minute a day… but lots of people aren’t making the time.
I’m talking about flossing your teeth.
A recent study, conducted at Queens University Belfast and published in the United European Gastroenterology Journal, found that flossing can actually change your risk of liver cancer.
The study team used a large population of 469,000 people from the United Kingdom and analyzed their flossing habits and their health.
The researchers were originally looking to see if there was a connection between oral health problems and liver, rectum, and pancreatic cancer.
They found no relationship between oral health and rectal or pancreatic cancer, but they found a huge association with liver cancer.
In fact, there was a 75 percent greater risk of liver cancer in people who had poor oral health.
This adds to the growing scientific studies that link poor oral health with increased risk of heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and Alzheimer’s.
Lots of problems start in your mouth, where bacteria have a way of moving in between your gum and your tooth. Once established, the bacteria have a direct pipeline to your bloodstream for their inflammation-raising toxins.
The liver is very susceptible to inflammation. And there also is a bacterium called Fusobacterium nucleatum, which is very hard on the liver.
You need to keep these bacteria out of your mouth and away from your liver.
Your best bet to avoid bad oral health is to stay away from sugars as much as possible, brush twice a day, and to floss at least a few times a week.
