REGARDING HEALTH AND CANCER

1.	HOW TOXIC IS CIGERETTE SMOKE? CIGERETTE SMOKE CONTAINS THOUSANDS OF DIFFERENT KINDS OF CHEMICALS, 70 OF WHICH ARE LINKED TO CANCER.  AMONG THE TOXIC CHEMICALS CONTAINED IN CIGERETTE SMOKE ARE ARSENIC, CYANIDE, CARBON MONOXIDE AND FORMALBEHYDE.
2.	WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF BLACK CUMIN? IN ONE STUDY, BLACK CUMIN (NIGELLA SATIVA) DESTROYED 82 PERCENT OF PANCREATIC TUMOR CELLS.  IT HAS ALSO PROVEN EFFECTIVE AGAINST COLON, BRAIN, BONE, BREAST AND PROSTATE CANCERS.  OTHER USES: IMMUNE AND INFLAMMATORY DISEASES, MIGRAINES, ALLERGIES, ACNE, HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE AND MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS.
3.	CAN COFFEE HELP ME CUT MY CANCER RISK? FIVE OR MORE CUPS OF CAFFEINATED COFFEE PER DAY CAN CUT BRAIN CANCER RISK BY UP TO 40 PERCENT.  A BRITISH STUDY REPORTS: FIVE CUPS A DAY SLASHED THROAT AND ORAL CANCER RISK BY ALMOST AS MUCH.  COFFEE WAS FOUND TO OFFER GREATER PROTECTION AGAINST CANCER THAN TEA.
4.	IS BPA FOUND IN CANNED FOODS? BISPHENOL-A (BPA) SHOULD BE AVOIDED SINCE IT HAS BEEN LINKED TO CANCER, HEART DISEASE AND DIABETES.  IT IS FOUND AS A LINER IN MOST FOOD CANS.
5.	WHY DO GREEN VEGETABLES LOWER MY CANCER RISK? DARK GREEN VEGETABLES LIKE SPINACH AND KALE CONTAIN HIGH AMOUNTS OF MAGNESIUM, WHICH HAS BEEN SHOWN IN LARGE STUDIES TO LOWER CANCER RISK.  MAGNESIUM AFFECTS THE SIGNALING OF CELLS.  WITH INADEQUATE MAGNESIUM IN THE DIET, CELLS MAY DIVIDE AND REPLICATE IMPROPERLY, SETTING THE STAGE FOR CANCER.
6.	CAN DRINKING WATER LOWER MY CANCER RISK? DRINKING PLENTY OF WATER HAS BEEN SHOWN TO OFFER PROTECTION AGAINST BLADDER CANCER BY DILUTING CANCER-CAUSING COMPOUNDS IN URINE AND FLUSHING THEM THROUGH THE BLADDER FASTER.  THE AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY SUGGESTS DRINKING AT LEAST 8 GLASSES OF LIQUID PER DAY.
7.	CAN DRINKING FILTERED WATER LOWER MY CANCER RISK? THE PRESIDENT’S CANCER PANEL REPORTS THAT HOME-FILTERING WATER CAN LOWER CANCER RISK BY REMOVING POTENTIALLY CANCINOGENIC CHEMICALS FOUBND IN PUBLIC WATER SUPPLIES.  IT SUGGESTS THAT FILTERED TAP WATER IS OFTEN SAFER THAN BOTTLED WATER.  STORE WATER IN STAINLESS STEEL OR GLASS TO AVOID BPA LEACHING.
8.	IS THERE A CANCER RISK IN EATING MEAT? MEAT THAT IS COOKED AT HIGH TEMPERTURES CAUSES HETEROCYCLIC AMINES (HCAs) AND POLYCYCLIC AROMATIC HYDROCARBONS TO FORM ON THE MEAT.  BOTH ARE CARCINOGENIC COMPOUNDS.  ADD ROSEMARY AND THYME TO YOUR MARINADE AND LET IT SOAK FOR AT LEAST AN HOUR BEFORE COOKING.  ROSEMARY AND THYME HAVE BEEN SHOWN TO REDUCE HCAs BY UP TO 87%.
9.	DO YOU KNOW? LACK OF SLEEP COULD PROBABLY CAUSE CANCER AND ALSO INCREASE YOUR RISK OF DEVELOPING HEART DISEASE, DIABETES AND OBESITY.
10.	ORAL CANCER PATIENTS NOW HAVE AN OPTION OF GETTING TREATMENT THROUGH LASER: A LASER BURNS THE TUMOUR AS AN INSIDE-OUT APPROACH.  SINCE THERE IS NO CUTTING, A PATIENT IS COMFORTABLE AND CAN RESUME ROUTINE ACTIVITIES IN A COUPLE OF DAYS.  IN ADDITION THE BODY RETAINS ITS CAPACITY TO FIGHT BACK.  THIS WORKS ON ALL STAGES OF CANCER BUT NOT IN VERY ADVANCED STAGE.
11.	DENDRITIC CELL THERAPY HELPS FIGHT CANCER DENDRITIC CELLS (DC) OF THE IMMUNE SYSTEM RECOGNISES AND FIGHTS CANCER CELLS. CANCER SPECIFIC DC CAN BE MADE FROM PATIENT’S BLOOD CELLS.  DC THERAPY HAS THE POTENTIAL TO SECURE THE FUTURE OF THE CANCER PATIENTS BY SILENTLY TRACKING THE MUTATIONS THAT THEY DON’T COME BACK AGAIN.
12.	WHAT IS A POWERFUL FOOD THAT FIGHTS CANCER? THE LITTLE-KNOWN INDIAN GOOSEBERRY HAS BEEN SHOWN TO BE ALMOST AS EFFECTIVE AS THE POPULAR CANCER DRUG TAXOL AT INHIBITING CANCER CELL METASTASIS.  ALSO KNOWN AS AMLA, THE INDIAN GOOSEBERRY IS AMONG THE MOST POTEST PLANT COMPOUNDS KNOWN TO MAN. INDIAN GOOSEBERRY IS AVAILABLE IN CAPSULE, POWDER AND JUICE FORM ALSO.
