Allergic Reactions May Protect You from Brain Cancer
Autumn Lane News
Our Cooking club is a hit!
Not sure if we have more
fun making the food or
eating it! We will continue
this program in May.
We are patiently waiting to
get outdoors and enjoy our
new patio areas.
Pretty soon we will need to
figure out what we will
want to plant in the raised
gardens.
Could there be anything good about having allergies? Doctors tend to be

optimists even though there’s nothing fun about nonstop sneezingblowing-dripping, right?
Wrong. There’s some interesting research that reveals allergies protect you
from brain cancer. No, this isn’t BS (bad science), and it isn’t the first
evidence of this.

Oak Terrace Anniversary
Benediction
A special thank you to Paul Stacke for composing
the Oak Terrace Anniversary Benediction.
“Dear Lord this a day of joy. With your
direction….two years ago Oak Terrace opened its
doors. It provided a home for those that had to
leave theirs. It is a place that provides care for
those of us who needs special help. While we
had to leave many of our friends we found we
gained new ones. You gave us care givers who
smiled when they felt grumpy, who cried with us
when we experienced a loss, and they would also
stop to listen to our concerns.
Thank you Lord for this day and bless this special
birthday luncheon. Amen.”

How the heck do allergies keep good brain cells from going rogue?
Something in the immune system’s overwrought reaction to allergens
seems to help it recognize and wipe out bad brain cancer cells. This
appears to be especially true in men, who are somewhat more susceptible
to the often deadly brain tumors called glioma. Malignant glioma is what
killed Ted Kennedy. It’s the most common brain tumor and the type
scientists have been worrying cell phones may cause.
If you don’t have allergies, or even if you do, there are other ways to
defend yourself against brain cancer. Do all the smart stuff that protects
you from other cancers:
 .Eat and exercise as if your life depends on it.
 Don’t give up morning coffee or tea.
ask the experts >>>
 Take extra vitamin D3.
 Drink moderately if you drink.
 Don’t smoke.
Actively patrolling your health can make your real age as much as 7 years
younger.
