Cancer prevention involves identifying and reducing risk factors that can lead to the development of cancer.

By addressing these factors, you can significantly lower your risk and improve your overall health.

Environmental Exposures
Exposure to carcinogens such as asbestos, radon, and certain chemicals.
Obesity
Being overweight or obese is linked to an increased risk of several types of cancer, including breast, colon, and pancreatic cancers.
Lifestyle Choices
Smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, poor diet, and lack of physical activity.

Our Cancer Prevention Treatment Options
Advanced Testing
We utilize cutting-edge testing to assess your genetic risk factors, hormone levels, inflammation markers, and overall health status. This includes genetic testing for cancer-related mutations and screenings for early detection of potential cancerous changes.
Detoxification Programs
Detoxification helps eliminate harmful toxins from the body that may contribute to cancer development. We offer tailored detox programs, including chelation therapy, IV nutrient therapy, ozone therapy, and more.
