People will go to the ends of the earth to cure what ails them. They will draw on every resource, spend every dime and will get totally consumed by trying to reverse their condition or disease. Too often, it’s too late. So they suffer and die from things that could have cost them pennies to prevent.

 

One top preventative measure is taking a baby aspirin with your biggest meal. This simple 3¢ a day habit could slash your heart attack and stroke risk by up to 50%. If you’re not doing this, why aren’t you? Higher doses can cut your risk of breast, prostate and colon cancer by about 50% and esophageal cancer by 90%!

 

Then there’s the current rage – vitamin D3. Do you realize you can take an optimal daily dose of about 400 IU (or 100 mcg) for less than 7¢ a day… or just soak up 30 minutes of free sunshine a few days a week to lower your overall cancer risk by up to 60%?

 

According to one landmark study, some 600,000 cases of breast and colorectal cancers could be prevented each year if vitamin D levels among populations worldwide were increased by much less than this 400 IU a day. And that’s just counting the death toll for two types of cancer.

Earlier studies have shown that optimizing your vitamin D levels could help you to prevent at least 16 different types of cancer. And now we’re seeing more evidence that the type of cancer may not be all that important, because vitamin D appears to play a key role in the development of ALL types of cancer!

 

In fact, the majority of cancer deaths in the U.S. are from the most vitamin-D-sensitive cancers.

 

In addition to reducing your cancer risk, vitamin D keeps your mind sharp as you age, lowers your risk of osteoporosis and joint pain, helps protect you from heart disease, diabetes, kidney disease… and can reduce your risk of dying prematurely from ANY cause.

 

The seemingly limitless benefits of vitamin D are easier to fathom when you understand that it is actually the building block of a powerful hormone that influences your entire body. Receptors that respond to vitamin D have been found in almost every type of human cell, from your bones to your brain.

 

Maybe that’s why researchers are constantly finding more benefits. Vitamin D can boost your immune system, speed up healing and help regulate your blood pressure.

 

So are you getting enough of this “sunshine vitamin”? If not, why not?

 

What else are you missing? Do you take fish oil every day? If not, you may be raising your overall mortality risk by an astounding 30%.

 

Would you insist on crossing streets on red lights? I’ll bet you wouldn’t even consider it, at least not normally. That’s because you learned a long time ago that crossing on green lights lowers your risk of getting pancaked by a truck.

 

Now you know more life-saving habits.

 

These simple steps will either turn out to be the best investments you ever made if you adopt them… or will turn out being your biggest regrets if you don’t.
