Publisher Description:

A diagnosis of pancreatic cancer is a virtual death sentence. Only about 6 % of pancreatic cancer patients survive longer than 5 years after diagnosis. Certain foods and certain vitamin and mineral deficiencies can greatly increase the risk of developing pancreatic cancer. Learn how a few changes to your diet can significantly reduce your risk of becoming another victim of pancreatic cancer.

In the majority of cases, pancreatic cancer is diagnosed too late to be effectively treated. Statistics show that approximately 80 % of pancreatic cancer patients survive less than a year after diagnosis, and only about 6 % survive longer than 5 years. Pancreatic cancer is currently ranked as the fourth leading cause of cancer deaths. By 2020 it's expected to be the second leading cause of deaths due to cancer.

Prevention is surely the most effective defense against this disease. Certain foods and certain vitamin and mineral deficiencies have been shown by medical research to significantly increase the risk of developing pancreatic cancer. Learn how a few changes to your diet can reduce your risk of becoming another victim of pancreatic cancer.

Contributor Bio(s): Persky, Wayne: - Wayne Persky was born, grew up, and currently lives in Central Texas. He is a graduate of the University of Texas at Austin, College of Engineering, with postgraduate studies in mechanical engineering, mathematics, and computer science. He has teaching experience in engineering, and business experience in farming and agribusiness. Faced with debilitating digestive system and health issues that developed in mid-life, he discovered that the mainstream medical community was generally unprepared to provide effective support and treatment for health issues that are caused by dietary problems. He was inspired to spend thousands of hours over more than a dozen years studying research articles in medical journals available on the Internet in order to understand and treat his own dietary issues. He currently administrates an online microscopic colitis discussion and support forum, while continuing to research medical issues that are not adequately addressed by mainstream medicine.
