Benefits of Reservatrol in fighting Pancreatic Cancer

A Note from Jennifer Landon, daughter of late actor Michael Landon, During Pancreatic Cancer Awareness Month and article on the Benefits of Reservatrol in fighting Pancreatic Cancer

Approximately 33,000 new cases of Pancreatic Cancer are diagnosed in the United States every year. Patients have a very low rate of survival, in part due to the disease's resistance to chemotherapy. However, all hope is not lost. Resveratrol has been found to halt growth of Pancreatic Cancer cells. This link has a great article explaining the details: http://www.naturalnews.com/024409.html.

Please feel free to email me if you are interested in learning some good sources of Resveratrol that do not inlcude having to drink alcohol-containing wine that can damage brain cells and cause cancer due to the yeast used in making it.

Subject: Help Jennifer Landon Give Thanks During Pancreatic Cancer Awareness Month

Dear Mrs. Moss,

November is Pancreatic Cancer Awareness Month and with Thanksgiving around the corner, it’s also a time to give thanks for our health and our loved ones. In honor of my father Michael Landon, I have decided to launch a public awareness campaign in support of The Cancer Project’s mission. I hope you will join me in supporting this important effort.

For more than a decade, The Cancer Project has done what no other nonprofit organization has been able to do—provide vital, hands-on nutrition and cooking classes to cancer patients and their families, and educate health professionals on the link between diet and cancer. Did you know that most doctors and nurses are minimally trained in nutrition, and that dieticians are not trained in dietary recommendations for cancer?

The Cancer Project’s mission is to bring this groundbreaking information to the general public and help prevent other families from suffering the same loss mine has. And it’s working.

More and more people are realizing the power of their plates, and more than 25,000 people have joined forces across the country in more than 80 cities in support of The Cancer Project. But as demand for this knowledge increases, so does our need for support.

Please make a generous gift to The Cancer Project this season in honor of a loved one. Then help me spread this lifesaving message by passing along this message to someone you care about. Only you can ensure that The Cancer Project’s critical services continue.

Many blessings,
Jennifer Landon

Make every day matter by supporting The Cancer Project's mission.
