Toenail Clippings Could Predict Your Cancer Risk...
Dear Reader,
Get this... a test of your toenail clippings can tell if you are at high risk of developing lung cancer from smoking, even if you're not a smoker!
This finding comes from the toenails of 210 men with lung cancer, and a group of 630 men used as disease free controls from the Health Professionals Follow Up Study. The toenail clippings used for this research were donated by 33,737 medical professionals taking part in the study.
Why use toenails, of all things?
The researchers were trying to find a way to evaluate exposure to secondhand smoke. They tried measuring nicotine in hair, but when researcher Wael K. Al-Delaimy, MD, PhD was working at Harvard with study co-author Walter Willett, MD DrPH, he discovered a large number of toenail samples from study participants. Since hair and toenails form from the same kind of tissue, it might be possible to analyze them for nicotine.
Toenails represent your nicotine exposure of the last year, and have the advantage of not needing any special storage arrangements. Toenails grow fastest in young people and men, and for us all during the summer months.
Amazingly, the team found that toenail nicotine levels are a reliable gauge of smoking status up to 6 years before the clippings were given. They are also able to predict heart disease risk in women. Females who had the highest levels of nicotine in their toenails had a 42% higher risk of heart disease than those at the lowest nicotine levels.
The 20% of toenails with the highest levels of nicotine showed men at the highest risk of lung cancer. They were 10.5 times more likely to have this form of cancer than the 20% of men who had the lowest amount of nicotine in their toenails. Even when accounting for smoking, men with the highest nicotine levels in the toenail were 3.5 times more likely to be diagnosed with lung cancer than those with the lowest levels of toenail nicotine.

Toenail Clippings Could Predict Your Cancer Risk... Continued...
As cancers go, cancer of the lung is one of the deadliest types for men and women.
More die from lung cancer than cancer of the breast, colon and prostate combined.
Most common in older people, this cancer is rare under 45 years old.
We know for certain that smoking cigarettes is the leading cause of lung cancer.
A cause that can be prevented by never starting the habit, and avoiding sources
of secondhand smoke.
Study co-author Wael K. Al-Delaimy, MD, PhD, chief of the division of global
health at the School of Medicine at the University of California, San Diego believes
we now have a valuable way to measure a patients' exposure and predict the risk
of developing lung cancer, whether you smoke or are exposed to secondhand smoke.
Amazing that exposure to either kind of smoke can be found all through your body,
right down to the tips of your toes.
The findings from the work appear in the American Journal of Epidemiology.
To your good health,
Kirsten Whittaker

P.S: Nike...Ebay...Amazon and Walmart pay for your opinion
Fortune 500 companies make their money by people like you and I buying their products.
But how do they know what we want to buy? Easy they pay to find out the products we like, where we shop and what we buy.
In a nutshell big businesses need people to tell them what products to make.
People like Michelle McAllister - a 34 year old full-time mother of two. Michelle and many others help "big business" make millions, although they haven't got any marketing or sales experience.
In fact Michelle knows absolutely nothing about business, but she does know what she likes...
And that's exactly the information these companies are after and will pay you for.
Click through to discover how Michelle quickly profits by telling big companies her opinion and how you can do it too...
