A Complete Guide To Future Cancer Research
"Fight cancer", "Beat cancer" are extremely popular expressions these days, which is good so. Although October, the Breast cancer Awareness Month is over, for a number of still see many individuals wearing pink ribbons on their own jackets, which is a demonstration of their will to help those women who have problems with this disease. Which is quite much appreciated and should be acknowledged. Fundraising and information events, web pages, donations, merchandise, advertisements all over the media, groups on social networking sites, individuals spreading the word - attention is undoubtedly given to the subject and considerable amount of money is collected.
In contrast, looking just a little bit closer, as a cancer survivor myself who studied the subject from the most various resources available for public, I personally have some questions, doubts and reservations about these research programs and may be a bad person, but I did not donate one single cent and not intend to do so. Tell you why.
Fight. A key word when discussing cancer.
How do you best fight so that you win? You know your enemy.
A problem - any problem - may be only handled if one knows the exact cause of it. This will be clear - how else do you solve a situation, in the event that you don't determine what is it exactly?
Let's take cancer of the breast, it looks like this: each year $ millions are spent to discover the causes of cancer And many more importantly, develop new treatments. Let me suggest: treatments may be only effective when they target the root of the problem... "The exact causes of cancer of the breast are not known." The truth is, according to the publicly available statements, causes of cancer are a mystery for the health sector.
The theory of changed or damaged genes is wide spread, and an information video on the Medical News Today site gives a little hint on why does it occur: "Damage or change within the genetic material of cells by environmental of internal factors sometimes results in cells that don't die and continue to multiply until a massive cancer cell or tumor develops."
Excellent. The next step would be then to investigate these environmental or internal factors that damage or change the genetic material of cells, would not it?
The environmental factors are essentially recognized for the scientists and then for the general public: bad nutrition, tobacco, certain chemicals that we use, etc. Cancer research should go then within the direction of eliminating these factors: educating the people on correct eating habits, cutting back the usage of harmful chemicals, and so on. And via www.sum.edu cancer treatment would primarily consist of targeting the cause of cancer, the main reason why those genes got changed or damaged: increasing certain vitamins and other nutrition supplements, cleansing and physical exercise that helps the body push out the accumulated toxins, boosting the own self defense of one's body, the immune system and so forth.
But this isn't how it goes. Cancer researches deal mostly with developing the standard therapies by official medicine: new drugs, radiation, hormones and surgery. And cancer treatments available in hospitals are mainly about giving chemotherapy and such to the patients. Can anyone find out how adding extra chemicals in to the already overwhelmed and weakened system would help the human body to recover? Because it will not.
