if people just changed their lifestyle for the better, they wouldn't get cancer in the first place

but the food that is being produced and the imbalances of humans in mainstream society makes them candidates for disease

I'm sorry but you do not know what causes cancer, no one does. Please.

homogenized milk
deodorant
meat that is injected with hormones
plastic
chemicals
cigarettes
mass consumption of alcohol over time
radiation
pesticides
growth hormones that are used to grow larger produce
etc

why do humans have to make everything so complicated?
i would be satisfied enough to live in the jungle and hunt everyday (a sustained society).

There is not a single piece of medical information that supports any of these causes. Currently the understanding of cancer is that it could be related to an angiogenic physiologic process involving the actual malignant homeostasis of tumors.

This angiogenesis is what is responsible for tumors becoming "aggressive" or simply "recurring". If you don't know what Angiogenesis is, you can try to understand it but its underlying physiological mechanism has yet to be linked to any of the causes you posted.

Cancer even exists in perfectly healthy animals, so its not entirely man-made synthetic causes. What I mean by this is you can take a perfectly healthy rat and literally grow cancer on it, we still don't know why this happens.

Cancer even exists in perfectly healthy animals, the only animal thusfar that has had no cancerous biology is the Shark, for some unknown reason. Perhaps you'd like to explain?


i am not an expert on the subject. i just know that scientific research suggests what i have mentioned. if i had a pharmaceutical company pushing for a cure, the last thing i would want is people knowing what the cause or cure is for cancer.

It was also my mistake to note that Sharks do not get cancer, they do in fact. There is a specie of shark that is resistant to in-vitro inoculations of metastatic cancer. Leading to the whole " DERR SHARKS DON'T GET CANCER DEERRR"

The cure for cancer, I am almost certain is underlying in the body's own intelligence, its own regulation of substances and a common physiological event known as angiogenesis. What is interesting, is that tumors tend to attract capillaries, rather spontaneously if you will.

The reason why this happens, well its quite possibly the most pressing question in medicine right now.

Cure for cancer sounds great, but one thing that is for sure, if its not cancer it will be soething else that kills you. Not to be cynical but cancer is just the overproduction of cells, and our bodies are limited by the amount that we wear them out.

Thought it was an interesting read. I don't want to get my hopes up, but if this works and it's capable of being mass produced, we could have finally cured cancer...


Wait you sure this isn't the plot of an anaconda movie?
