Cancer Quick Facts

   In such states much like Utah, where supposely soil content rich in      Selenium produces  below average cancer rates  in  The United States.       There is some concern though high amounts of Selenium particularly    elemental selenium and inorganic sodium selenite may be toxic.

  When it’s found in high concentrations  in  water  and  soil,  such as,              the   case around Jenson & Vernal, Utah fish kills are thereby recorded. Western states generally have higher  selenium levels  then the eastern      states.  Thereby,  South Dakota  with the highest levels  and  Ohio  with             the lowest produces  greater numbers of cancer cases?

   Likewise in the Keshan area of China where the soil content is  also     deficient   in selenium.   Keshan disease…. a form of heart disease that                 is prevalent in children and is characterized by an enlarged heart and congestive heart failure.  May be a direct result of selenium deficiency                as it has responded positively to selenium therapies.

   Despite it’s importance and our bodies having less than 1mg content                  of selenium (a little of it goes along way.)   Selenium is part  of a vital  nutritional antioxidant system that protects cell membrane and intra      cellular structural membrane from lipid peroxidation.  It is actually                the  selenocysteine complex  that is incorporated into the glutathione peroxidase (GP).              Nature’s Sunshine

   GP and enzyme that helps prevent cellular degeneration from the          common peroxidase free radicals  such as hydrogen peroxide.  (GP )        aids red blood cell metabolism and has shown to prevent chromsome        damage in tissue cultures.  Therefore,  as an antioxidant selenium in                 the form of selenocysteine prevents or slows  biochemical aging.

  The protection of youthful elascity, tissue degeneration and the cell  membrane is further enhanced by vitamin E. Selenium and vitamin E     working together like an orchestra synergestically carrying out anti-         oxidant and immunostimulating functions.

  Both these nutrients functioning better together than individually,                     as part of the “antiaging” or “longevity” group,  which may be directly attributable to their antioxidant functions. Preventing tissue damage             from oxidation by free radicals may be the contributing factor to your degenerative diseases is detrimental.      Healing CANCER???

   The pancreas an organ  in  the  upper abdomen  located beneath the      stomach and adjacent to the first portion of the  small intestine  called        the  duodenum.   The  most  common  cancer  of  this  type  are  called adenocarcinoma of the pancreas  amongst the most agressive type of all cancers.

  By the time  pancreatic cancer  is  diagnosed most people  already  have   disease that has spread through out distant sites in the body and probably      is  the  most  difficult  to  harness.  With  very  little  curative  options and treatment,   the best preventive measures is to abstain from smoking  and  drinking excessively of  alcoholic intake.   (T Gen Research Institute.)        Global Cure!!!!

  The thyroid gland located  in front of the neck  and just below the so called  Adams Apple and is shaped like a butterfly. It’s function that it discretes the hormone that helps regulate the way in which we use energy and this helps your body function normally.  Experts really don’t know the exact cause of thyroid cancer,   however,   being  exposed  to  radiation   (especially from    dental xrays is a concern.)

   Medullary  thyroid cancer  can be also caused by a change or alteration in       a gene called RET. A blood test can detect an altered RET Gene and a doctor  may recommend  frequent lab test  or  surgery to remove the thyroid before cancer developes (and yes…. you can live without a thyroid comfortably.)

  A preventive measure  one  must  always  consider  is  the  amount  of  the    Iodine one maintains  in their diet. The thyroid  needs  Iodine to  manifest   the hormone that makes it function and in the Great Lakes region. Known as  the goiter belt….  a greater number  of thyroid cancer  is reported because of  less Iodine consumed in those people that live there.  How ‘Bout Laetrile?

The Endometrium is the tissue lining the uterus or womb and cancer occurs when the cells undergo transformation.   As all these cells grow and multiply uncontrollably,  mechanisms  that  normally limit their growth form tumors. Cancer is dangerous  because it overwhelms healthy cells  by taking up space and the oxygen plus nutrients the healthy cells need to survive and prosper.

  Therefore,  the exact cause of endometrial carcinoma remains unknown; although,  some of the risk factors  including being over fifty pounds  over weight,  early puberty,  never having been pregnant  and  late  menopause.   Also, women who have high levels of unopposed estrogen ( similiar then to ovarian and breast cancer) are also at an increased risk of this type.

  Everybody knows what function the liver has,  therefore,  liver cancer the third most common cancer in the world and most surely the deadliest of all cancers.  Killing almost all patients whom have it  within  a  year  and about three – quarters of all liver cancer  is found in  Southeast Asia    ( in China, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Japan.) 

  Liver cancer also very common in Saharan Africa is greater than 100 cases     per 100,000 population.  In contrast the frequency of liver cancer in North America  and  Western European Countries  is much lower…. less than five per 100,000 population.  However,  the frequency among  native Alaskans  are comparable to those seen in Southeast Asia.

  Therefore stated, “the prevalence of hepatitis B infections, which is the most common cause of liver cancer worldwide. Recent data shows,  however,  that   the frequency of liver cancer  is rising in  the United States  and this increase  due primarily to rising obesity and diabetes rates.  With also  the  hepatitis B  infection of the liver that causes cancer being another concern.”

   The  hepatitis  B  virus  is able to  multiply and flourish  in the  body  while causing  living inflammation caused by the immune system  that can lead to cirrhosis.  What these patients typically  have are high levels  of  hepatitis B  virus in their blood but normal enzymes and liver biopsies,  however,  what  this virus can do is damage DNA.

   Damaged  DNA  can cause liver cancer  and such  patients  should have an ultra sound  examination of the liver….  alpha fetoprotein  blood  test every   six months to look for  developing  liver  cancer.  Usually individuals at risk    for developing liver cancer are those with cirrhosis (advanced liver disease) and cirrhosis is a precancerous condition.

Specifically, statistics concerning brain tumors and known causes will be bantered about in this blog post. When we explore the probabilities (one,  two,  three  and  four) and then include the possibilities  (one,  two,  three  and  four).    While  taking  into  account  that brain tumors are  rare in children  3 out of 100,000…. known risk factors  family history.

Whereas in adults factors such as  the use of  aspartame, radiation exposure, cell phones, formaldehyde, aflatoxin b1, vinyl chloride, and acrylonitrile (cigarette smoke are known causes.  Thereby,  trying  to  understand  the  facts,  causes  and  effects,  symptoms  and diagnosis, treatments and clinical trials can be misguided and confusing.   Brain Cysts?
