CONCORD, N.H., Nov. 7, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- The Anticancer Lifestyle Foundation (ALF) and The Geneia Institute announce the creation of the online, on-demand version of the Anticancer Lifestyle Program (ACLP). The ACLP is a comprehensive, evidence-based lifestyle transformation course for cancer survivors and those who seek to reduce their risk of cancer.
"The Anticancer Lifestyle Program empowers cancer survivors and those interested in cancer prevention with evidence-based information to improve their health and lower their odds of developing cancer," said Meg Cadoux Hirshberg, ALF founder and president. "Our new online course makes this critical information available to all those who need it."
The ACLP course is divided into five modules: Change, Mindset, Diet, Fitness and Environment. Each module comes with a toolkit of resources and information to help participants to create their own anticancer lifestyle.
Known for its expertise in bringing skills-based content online, The Geneia Institute collaborated with ALF to create videos, graphics, animation, quizzes and activities designed to empower course participants to take an active role in their health and well-being. The modules feature experts teaching evidence-based ways to reduce inflammation and improve the body's natural defenses against disease. The course is designed to supplement any necessary medical treatment.
"Nearly 40 percent of Americans will be diagnosed with cancer at some point during their lifetimes," said Heather Lavoie, Geneia president. "Given the prevalence of cancer and other chronic illnesses, we know it's critical to engage and activate people in their good health. Geneia is proud to bring the ACLP to more people."
