"In 1904 only 1 out of 24 Americans had cancer in his lifetime. Today the cancer rate is 1 out of 2 for men and 2 out of 3 in women."

More than 50% of the population will be diagnosed with cancer during their lifetime and the percentage is steadily climbing. The purpose of this web site is to help reverse this trend by providing the necessary information and support for individuals diagnosed with cancer, and a cancer-preventing lifestyle for people who do not want to get cancer.

Doctors now say that "every man will develop prostate cancer if he lives long enough, even though the overwhelming majority will not die from it."

More Americans die of cancer each year than died in World War II, the Korean War and Vietnam combined. In 2007 it is expected that more than 1.4 million Americans will be diagnosed with cancer and nearly 560,000 will die from it. Someone dies of cancer every minute.
