Water and Cancer Prevention

This information comes from Ty Bollinger's The Truth About Cancer.

It may seen oversimplified, but if toxins are cancer triggers and we can flush out many toxins from our bodies through our excretory systems, then doesn't it make sense to drink plenty of pure water?

You may have heard that you should drink at least eight 8-ounce glasses of water a day for good health. Another formula is to take your body weight in pounds, divided by two and that is the number of ounces of pure water that you should drink a day.

Those amounts of water are estimates. Your body will actually need varying amounts of water, depending on your age, sex, metabolic rate, body weight, physical activity, as well as the temperature and the humidity of your environment. Your food intake, alcoholic and caffeinated beverage intake and any drugs that you are taking, will also vary your water requirements.

Clean and pure water may be perhaps the most important “nutrient” for effective detoxification and cancer prevention.

Many cellular biochemical reactions and organ processes also require ample amounts of water.

Water and Cancer Prevention:

Water also helps protect the vital organs, specifically the bladder, colon and breast tissue, against cancer. Research published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology, reveals that water intake is inversely related to each of these types of cancer; meaning the more water a person drinks, the less likely he or she is to develop these potentially fatal conditions.
