AARP Magazine Article

Interesting article in new AARP magazine (Dustin Hoffman on cover) A physician writes on how to boost immunity and fight cancer. I thought it a great story because he is a physician researcher, and when one of his study subjects didn't show up one day, he took the brain scan himself, I guess to keep the right number of people in the study. Scan found a tumor in his brain that was cancerous. Good, short article.

Thanks, MJO! I'll read that as soon as I can find around here, somewhere. I'm doing taxes and the dining room table is filled with receipts, bills, today's mail, and who knows what else. It appears that someone has thrown a bomb in here when I wasn't looking. Love, Vickie

I don't know how to scan the article onto this website. If I figure it out, I will do it.
The article is
The Anticancer Lifestyle
By David Servan-Schreiber, M.D.
A physician—and cancer survivor—shares five new tactics for preventing the deadly disease

Servan-Schrieber has also written a book about the anti-cancer lifestyle.
