How To Stop Your Body From Making Cancer | Cancer

March 10th, 2010 annie No comments

Our bodies don’t get cancer; our bodies make cancer. That is we have made it ourselves. How did we accomplish that you may ask? Simply by not respecting the laws of Mother Nature. It’s the way we are now living that’s causing so much of it now days. Cancer is well understood and it is not some dreaded disease that science can’t fathom. Its cause is the result of the violation of natural laws.

What our medical system wants us to believe is it’s not our fault and there is nothing w

e could have done to prevent it. That is not so! The facts are cancer has been growing in your body for many years, and it’s you that has caused it. In most cases it takes about 10 years before it’s of sufficient size to be detected and that means your cancer has been under construction for a long time.

If you’re interested here is a recipe for making cancer;

›› Expose your self to large amounts of radiation in the form of x-rays and ct scans.

›› Make sure most

ent there was nothing they could have done to stop the cancer that is not true. A doctor is only repeating what he knows and they don’t know how cancer is made or even the causes of it. Cancer is a degenerative disease and all degenerative diseases can be reversed, it is never too late to do something about it.

Cancer is a modern day problem, there was very little of it 40 to 50 years ago. It is only man and the animals he controls that are troubled by cancer. It is a complex disease and man will never fully understand it and he doesn’t need to. All you have to do if you’re dealing with cancer is to just rely on nature to help you remove it. Nature produces the perfect food for humans which is our medicine and all you have to do is to eat it. Nature provides the cure for cancer.

To remove cancer once it has been diagnosed you must respect the laws of Mother Nature and eat and live as we are supposed to.

Here is the recipe for removing cancer;

›› Eat a plant based diet.

›› Make sure the food you eat is fresh and no one has interfered with it.

›› Get a little exercise everyday, it’s important.

›› Avoid chemicals, we are surrounded by them.

›› Have a positive outlook.

Remember your body strives to heal itself automatically every single day. What you need to do to assist it is to remove the barrier that’s been stopping it from healing. A strict natural diet and other simple lifestyle changes will do this.

Supporting A Mesothelioma Victim | Cancer

March 8th, 2010 annie No comments

The diagnosis of Mesothelioma is such a stunner that many patients are emotionally swamped by it. This raises the question of how you should support them as the deal with the diagnosis.

Mesothelioma is a brutal form of cancer. Fortunately, it is very rare. The cancer is mostly associated with the inhalation of asbestos. This leads to the eventual growth of mutant cells, better known as cancer, in the mesothelium. The mesothelium is a organic two layer sheet like substance that lines th

e abdomen and chest while also surrounding and supporting organs like the heart and lungs.

The diagnosis of Mesothelioma can be a real shocker. The reason is two fold. First, it is very rare, which means most patients first question is “Meso…what?” The second is the cancer is usually the result of exposure to asbestos, but only manifests in the body after tens of years have passed. As a result, most patients have no idea of how they could have come into contact with it.

Perhaps the bigges

t difficulty for patients to deal with is the prognosis. Mesothelioma usually only manifests very late in the growth process. As a result, the 5 year survival rate is less than 10 percent. Understandably, this can devastate a patient.

The first step to supporting them is to make sure they understand that a certain percentage of people do survive. You can find stories online of people who have made it to inspire them. The key is to developing a fighting spirit and to be aggressive in dealing wi

th the disease.

The second step is to watch out for your own mental health. A person with Mesothelioma is going to be tough to deal with emotionally and practically. As a result, you are going to need to take time for yourself. You should consider locating and joining support groups so you have people to talk with that are going through the same thing. This will allow you better support the person in your life suffering from the cancer.

Mesothelioma is a very tough diagnosis. Your decision to support a person with it is much appreciated. Just make sure you take care of yourself so you can take care of them.

What Is Breast Cancer And How Can You Treat It | Cancer

March 7th, 2010 annie No comments

Did you realize there are many different types of treatments for breast cancer? Radiation therapy destroys the cancer tissue and prevents them from growing inside the entire body. This helps prevent multiplication of it. Radiation has also improved by leaps and bounds. The latest treatments on this cancer also consists of specific radiation. This is much more effective and helps prevent injury towards the surrounding healthy cells too. Radiation can now be provided in appropriate dosage

s with lower unwanted effects. The following are a couple of tips about this dangerous illness.

In the healthcare world today, the treatment for breast cancer involves many kinds of approaches. The initial analysis and clinical work up is the guide towards the type of remedy you will undergo.You can find some requirements which your remedy depends like the cellular composition of the cancer, the dimensions of the growth, and the phase of your hormonal status. Your general health status also pl

ays a role in deciding the type of treatment. This information will take you through several from the latest treatments on breast cancer.

Generally there is really a good deal happening in your tissue. In the event that the cells that are developing out of control are normal cells, the growth is not cancerous. However, if the tissues which are developing out of control are abnormal and do not perform like the body’s usual cells, the tumor is malignant.

l treatment. Surgical treatment and radiation therapy are most effective when the growth is localized towards the breast and can be easily removed. Benign tumors and small sized tumors are treated in this manner. The newest treatments on breast most cancers include improvements in chemotherapy, hormone treatment. These are utilized in advanced phases of cancer when the growth is no longer confined just to the breast.

The actual reproduction of cells becomes imbalanced. Breast cancer is if your cells begin to grow and reproduce out of control, which creates an assortment of cells called a tumor. However, just because you have a unknown growth within the breast doesn’t mean it needs to be dangerous.

One option is to test is opting for different kinds of surgery. Breast cancer surgery is aimed at removing the bulk from the cancer tissue. Better surgical options have emerged which give patients the chance to undergo reconstruction surgery after a mastectomy. Surgery may also be within the breast or lymph node which may be found during a diagnosis. Newest remedies on this topic have medical choices which include a prophylactic mastectomy or perhaps a removal of the sex gland in a few instances.

The source from the names for each cancer is rather easy. They are named after the part from the body from which they develop. Breast cancer stems within the breast tissue. Like other cancerous tissues, it can invade and grow into the tissue surrounding the breast. Additionally , it may pass through to other parts of the human body and form brand new growths. This is called metastasis and can be very dangerous

There are many dangerous but sometimes effective methods to combat cancer. Chemotherapy is considered systemic therapy as it targets cancerous cells within the entire body. It can also be supplemented by a bone marrow or stem cell transplant that is beneficial in mostcases where the immune system is severely compromised. Stem cell treatment offers incredible possibilities in cases like breast cancer which have the potential to turn into any of the body’s cells and replicate at a faster pace to fight this lethal disease.

Immune Response And Stage Iv Melanoma | Cancer

March 6th, 2010 annie No comments

Stage IV melanoma is very difficult to treat.  Even though stage I melanoma has an excellent prognosis; response rate for stage IV melanoma with palliative biotherapies and chemotherapies is only approximately 10%.

Clinicians and researchers are working hard to find treatment options for patients with stage IV disease.  Despite treatment failure of radiotherapy and chemotherapy in melanoma, they repeatedly note anti-tumor immune responses with regression of metastases or disease st

I found the article by Dr. Michael Erdmann in the February issue of The Lancet Oncology very interesting.  He discussed findings from recent trials on two anti-CTLA-4 agents, ipilimumab and tremelimumab.  They are both immunomodulating antibodies targeting CTLA-4.  While phase 2 study of ipilimumab has shown some clinical responses with best overall response rate of 11.1%, phase 3 study of tremelimumab was terminated due

Researchers’ next challenge is to prove ipilimumab’s superiority to chemo in phase 3 trials and hopefully they can identify biomarkers to identify or predict melanoma patients whom will respond to these CTLA-4 agents.

Promoting awareness about mesothelioma and the links to asbestos exposure is very important.  Especially considering the fact that there are many people out there trying to misinform the public.  Some measurements put the number of people who have died because of asbestos poisoning or exposure at over a quarter million.  That is a truly staggering number.  The good news is many doctors and researchers are working feverishly to try to find a cure and learn more.  Every day new resea

Res.; (United States); Journal Volume: 44:1 – Research Org Univ. of Vermont College of Medicine, Burlington.  Here is an excerpt: ” The possible modulation of asbestos-related cell death using antioxidants in both target and effector cells of asbestosis was investigated. After exposure to crocidolite asbestos at a range of concentrations (2.5-25 ..mu..gcm/sup 2/ dish), the viability of a normal rat lung fibroblast line and freshly isolated alveolar macrophages (AM) was determined. In comparison to fibroblasts, AM were more resistant to the cytotoxic effects of asbestos. Cytotoxic concentrations of asbestos then were added to both cell types in combination with the antioxidants, superoxide dismutase (SOD), a scavenger of superoxide (O/sub 2//sup -./), and catalase, an enzyme scavenging H/sub 2/O/sub 2/. Dimethylthiourea (DMTU), a scavenger of the hydroxyl radical (OH/sup ./) and deferoxamine, an iron chelator, also were evaluated in similar studies. Results showed significant dosage-dependent reduction of asbestos-associated cell death with all agents. In contrast, asbestos-induced toxicity was not ameliorated after addition of chemically inactivated SOD and catalase or bovine serum albumin. Results above suggest asbestos-induced cell damage is mediated by active oxygen species. In this regard, the iron associated with the fiber andor its interaction with cell membranes might be critical in deriving a modified Haber-Weiss (Fenton-type) reaction resulting in production of OH/sup ./.”

How Negative Ions Are Effective In Treating Cancer | Cancer

March 5th, 2010 annie No comments

In 1950, Dr. Haskell applied negative ions to patients of hypertension. Amazingly, negative ions were proven to have a significant effect in lowering one’s blood pressure, while no beneficial effects were observed with positive ions. Negative Ion are also effective against influenza, asthma and especially bronchial diseases.

Another study done by the University of Frankfurt involved a “Cancer Team” led by Dr. Kusturica that further studied the physical effects of negative ions on c

As a result, the rats in the negative ion environment lived, on average for 59 days, while the rats that were untouched lived no longer than 34 days.The rats from the experimental team live 25 days longer; some even lived as long as 80 days! The experiment’s results

Smokers trying to stop have tried patches, pills, diets and cold turkey with little or partial success. The smokers desire to handle a cigarette and feel the inhale usually out weighs giving up the habit without the aid of a cigarette fixation that most programs lack.

In 2005 E-Cig.com established a world wide web site marketing electronic cigarette products. Before 2005 the electronic cigarette was limited to a single taste and one nicotine amount for each cig.

hat, you must show me before I can agree. The electronic cigarette or e-cig works simply using a battery, an atomizer, and a cartridge filled with a liquid nicotine solution. Inhaling the cig sends a signal to the atomizer, a heating element inside of the cig. The healthier vapor that appears to be smoke is the result of the atomizer quickly heating up the liquid nicotine solution. Because the electronic cigarette works completely different than the traditional tobacco cigarette it has many great advantages. The traditional cigarette requires the tobacco to be burnt and the smoke inhaled. Vaporizes a liquid nicotine mixture used by the electronic cigarette is a much healthier process. Because the E Cig produces vapor not actually smoke, the electronic cigarette does not fall into the category of No Smoking Bans. You are vaporizing not smoking so you can now have an E-cig inside the bar, restaurant, office, or even in an airport knowing you are choosing a healthier alternative to tobacco smoking. The major benefits in using the electronic cigarette are helping to quit smoking and better health but, there are others that are worth mentioning. Reducing the risk of fire is a huge benefit of the electronic cigarette along with odorless, non staining and less expensive make them a real bargain if you must smoke. Electronic cigarettes have all the advantages of better health, cheaper, odorless, stainless and flameless making it the best way to quit smoking.

Veterans And Mesothelioma Exposure | Cancer

March 2nd, 2010 annie No comments

Mesothelioma is one of the leading causes of cancer among veterans in the United States. The disease is most prevalent in veterans of the era of the 40s through to the 60s when the use of asbestos was wide spread in the construction of military equipment. Mesothelioma is a cancer that forms as a direct result of continuous exposure to asbestos particles. Upon inhalation, the asbestos particles find their way into the deep annals of the lungs where they become logged amongst the tissue a

nd cells. Here they remain ant interact with antibodies released by the body as a direct result of the irritation caused by the asbestos particles and transform the surrounding cells into cancerous cells. This process continues until the entire lining of the lung becomes damaged. Unfortunately, mesothelioma is not easily diagnosed resulting in many veterans being unaware of their condition until the disease becomes irreversible.

Between the 1930 through to the 1970s, the use of asbestos was pr

evalent in many military constructions. As a result, military veterans from all sections of the armed forces who served in World War 2, Korean War and Vietnam now exhibit after effects of asbestos exposure. The main exposure came from equipment such ships, submarines and airplane in which asbestos was used for insulation purposes.

Navy

construction of ships and submarines for use in the fleet. These vessels were laced with asbestos from end to end due its excellent heat resistance qualities. The asbestos was placed in walls, floors, valve gaskets and around boilers. However, due the lack of knowledge available at the time about the dangers of asbestos exposure, these individuals worked fearlessly to get their orders out.

Army
Although members of the army did not use utilize ships or submarines during their operations, this did not save them from asbestos exposure. Asbestos was a cheap material that could be used in many applications. As a result, asbestos was used to construct sleeping barracks in many locations overseas. It provided good insulation in cold countries, however as the wars progressed, many of these building aged or were damaged by enemy fire causing the asbestos particles to be released into the environment. These side effects still exist for those individuals who still live in the war-ravished areas who still use some of these buildings for living purposes.

Marines
It is a tradition for marines to work closely with the navy as most of their deployment depends on the assistance of the navy. As a result, these marines become exposed to the same contaminated conditions on asbestos-laced vessels. In addition, many of the buildings used the marines while on land were also built from asbestos products.

Air Force
Asbestos is a relatively light material that provides good insulation that was perfect at the time for use in airplane construction. As a result of being enclosed in these small cockpits for extended periods during wars and training, world war 2, Korean and Vietnam veteran pilots have gained the unfortunate post of being second only to navy veterans with the highest rate of mesothelioma due to asbestos exposure
