In order to decrease mortality rate of gastrointestinal (GI) tract cancer, its prevention is just as important, if not more so, as its early recognition. It is well-known that smoking, meal rich in meat, and lack of exercise are all contributing to cause GI tract cancer.<BR>Seventh-Day Adventist (a Christian denomination) has practiced life-style free of smoking, vegetarian diet, and proper exercise for more than one hundred years, and its healthy lifestyle has been highly regarded from preventive medicine standpoint.<BR>Kobe Adventist Hospital recommends such lifestyle to anyone who enrolls to its Human Dock program. In the program, a smoker is strongly recommended to quit smoking, and is referred to Smoking Cessation Clinic. Meal provided for overnight Dock program consists of lacto-ovo-vegetarian diet. Outpatient Dock program offers a lunch at on-campus vegetarian restaurant. Next to the hospital is a spa, where a trainer advises the examinee how to exercise on one-on-one basis. Healthy lifestyle consisting of smoke-free life, vegetarian diet, and proper exercise is necessary for prevention of GI tract cancer, as noted in Diet and Health Guidelines for Cancer Prevention by World Cancer Research Fund and American Institute for Cancer Research.
