The Fundamentals Of Future Cancer Research Revealed

"Fight cancer", "Beat cancer" are extremely popular expressions right now, and it's good so. Although October, the Cancer of the breast Awareness Month is over, it's possible to still see lots of people wearing pink ribbons on their jackets, which is a demonstration of their will to help those women who experience this disease. And this is very much appreciated and should be acknowledged. Fundraising and information events, sites, donations, merchandise, ads all around the media, groups on social networking sites, individuals spreading the term - attention is certainly given to the subject and significant amount of cash is collected.

Alternatively, looking just a little bit closer, as a cancer survivor myself who studied the topic from the most various resources available for public, I personally have some questions, doubts and reservations about these research programs and could be a bad person, but I did not donate one single cent and not intend to do so. Tell you why.

Fight. An integral word when talking about cancer.

How do you best fight to ensure that you win? You know your enemy.

An issue - any problem - can be only handled if one knows the exact cause of it. This should be clear - how else do you solve a situation, should you not know what is it exactly?

Let's take cancer of the breast, it looks like this: on a yearly basis $ millions are spent to find out 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, based on 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 in the genetic material of cells by environmental of internal factors sometimes results in cells that do not die and continue to multiply until a huge cancer cell or tumor develops."

Excellent. The next phase 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 virtually noted for the scientists and 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 populace on correct eating habits, cutting back the utilization of harmful chemicals, and so on. And 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 one's body push out the accumulated toxins, boosting the own self defense of the body, the immune system and so on.

But this is not how it goes. Cancer researches deal mostly with developing the common therapies by official medicine: new drugs, radiation, hormones and surgery. And cancer researchers treatments accessible in hospitals are mainly about giving chemotherapy and such to the patients. Can anyone find out how adding extra chemicals into the already overwhelmed and weakened system would help the human body to recover? Since it will not.
