As much as I hate spreading "awareness," I suppose I should. There is not-rare-enough genetic condition called Lynch Syndrome, which Wikipedia will redirect to Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer, which I think is a stupid name to call something that's not cancer but rather a mutation in the genes responsible for cancer suppression.
Bottom line, I'm much more likely than a genetically typical individual to have ASSCANCER.
So, I do recognize that kava is a chemopreventative.
Like PTSD, I try not to think about it. I don't want to overemphasize the mind-body connection, because I don't want to imply that people with cancer have cancer because of their poor attitudes. However, we do tend to attract into our lives the things we focus on. Which is why I really stare hard for a full solid minute on every shell I drink... FOCUS on that kava! However, when I am between thinking "wow, that's way too much kava" and "oh, John Holy Frum, I really want MORE kava, because it's SO GOOD!" I remember my rectum and visualize the kavalactones finding and killing the asscancer cells.
If any of your parents or grandparents died of asscancer, or survived asscancer but contracted it at a young age, please consider having them and/or you tested for Lynch mutations.
