I BEAT CANCER 4 TIMES...How To Disease Proof Your Body By John Krech
My story started with feeling a burning pain in my groin. Thinking it was just a strain, I ignored it for several months until it was apparent that it wasn't going away. Going to the doctor confirmed that I had testicular cancer, and the tumor markers signified that it had spread to other organs in the body.
After having the cancer removed I went back to my urologist for a follow-up consultation. He had met with a group of doctors in the area, and they all agreed that I needed a complete lymph node dissection, followed by a course of chemotherapy. I asked what a lymph node dissection was and he said that they cut you open from your chest to your pelvis. They then take out as many lymph nodes as possible.
I told him that I would like to get another opinion. (Click here to continue.)

Weight Loss Hint--Avoid Chronic Dehydration
Water isn't just "good for you" - water burns fat. Water suppresses hunger. Water renews your skin. Just drinking 12 ounces of pure water every day can take a few years off your face in a matter of weeks. You'll also drop fat, have more energy, and save your kidneys and liver from chronic overwork.
When your kidneys are taxed from too little water, your liver has to take over. Now, get this: Your liver is your number one fat-burning organ. Do you REALLY want it processing liquids and toxins rather than BURNING FAT? No way, right? Well, grab a glass of water (or more like 8, 8 ounces glasses at least every day), and watch the mirror. Within a few weeks, the change to your face and body will be noticeable.

Nutrition Hint--Surviving Summer Events
Summer ushers in cookouts, company picnics and wedding buffets. While you can't always control the food offerings, you can prepare before heading out the door. Empty stomachs cause bad choices, so try eating a healthy, high-protein snack such as a hard-boiled egg before leaving. When you arrive, stick to nutritious options like lean meats, veggies and fruits instead of the higher calorie items.
Speaking of nutrition...
We are always looking out for the best information to share with our readers. The Environmental Working Group (EWG) has a Shoppers Guide to Pesticides in Produce and we thought it was important, as folks who are striving to be as healthy as possible, that you make an informed decision when purchasing your fruits and vegetables. Click here to see the 2013 list of the top 12 most pesticide laden fruits and veggies. If organic produce isn't always an option, please try to at least buy organic with the "dirty dozen" fruits and veggies. Click for your copy to keep with you when shopping.

Metabolism Retraining Hint--Family Fitness On The Beach
Turn those frequent trips to the beach into some family fitness time. There are a lot of things you can do to increase your movement while frolicking in the sand. Walking on the beach is a great workout on it's own. Add a little fun for the kids by looking for pretty shells or rocks depending upon where your beach is located. Playing racquet games, volleyball and Frisbee get the metabolism going. Get in the water and have some fun body surfing or swimming along the shore. And one of my favorite activities to get everyone involved is having a scavenger hunt--it keeps everyone on their toes.
