  • Eat lots of fresh fruits and vegetables
  • Use pure manuka honey which is proven to be an anti inflammatory as well as anti bacterial
  • Try to find a source of grass fed beef which is high in omega 3s

Research on Chronic Inflammation and Breast Cancer:

A study led by researchers at Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center has identified two proteins in the blood that could become important prognostic markers for long-term survival in breast cancer patients. The proteins are associated with chronic inflammation, which is known to contribute to cancer development and progression of the disease.

WTN News published an article about the "Medical College of Wisconsin it ties breast cancer to inflammation". Ashwani Khanna associate professor of medicine presented his finds at the annual meeting of the American Association for Cancer Research in Orlando.

He said: " Research shows that when the condition becomes chronic, it can lead to a great many diseases, including cancer".

Fortunately there are many things you can do to prevent inflammation or get it under control if you already have it, and sadly most of us have it. The most important thing is to follow an anti inflammation cancer prevention diet.
