| Article Title :: How Constipation Creates Colon Cancer |
| |
| In 1911 Dr. Alexis Carrel received the Nobel Prize for growing live tissue cells. He discovered that removing their digestive wastes every day, these cells could live indefinitely. When he did not remove their wastes for three days they become weak and unhealthy.This simple experiment showed that whatever waste we create whether it’s in our lymph liquid, our blood, or in the colon, it must be removed daily if we are to have excellent health.Looking at colon waste, we should be having a bowel movement every day for every meal we eat. Most of us have only one or none each day. Many doctors say it’s ok if you only have one bowel movement every two days. Yes, it’s ok (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Lung Cancer Stages |
| |
| Cancers are staged depending on how far they have spread. Staging a cancer correctly is essential to select the most appropriate treatment option. A number of diagnostic tests, such as CT scans, MRIs, bronchoscopy, blood tests, bone scans, and biopsies are used to find out how far the cancer has spread.Non-small cell lung cancers, which account for about 80 percent of lung cancers, are staged using the Roman numerals 0 through IV. If a cancer is too small to be detected, it is called an occult or hidden cancer and not assigned any numeral. Stage 0 cancer, or carcinoma in situ, is limited to the lung and only involves a few layers of cells. Stage I cancer is still limited to th (read full article) |

There are people who are addicted to cigarette smoking and some even smoke two packs or more per day. Out of every seven people, at least one person would develop lung cancer. Folks who smoke about one pack of cigarettes per day are prone to this threat 25 times more than non-smokers. People who casually smoke are also not free from this, as they could also develop lung cancer.

| Article Title :: NanoTech and Cancer Cures at a Cross Roads |
| |
| As NanoTech and BioTech merge we will soon find the cures to many of mankind’s most pressing medical issues and perhaps cures for many types of cancers. Consider micro mechanical delivery systems to the concentrated areas where cancer cells are or even search and destroy systems, which will go through the body and weed out the cancer cells from the biosystem? How far are such technologies from reality?Not too far and some are ready to be tested on real humans, as they have already proven themselves effective in lab situations. One concept is to use micro thin carbon nano-tubes to deliver the medicine to the exact area cancerous area without hurting nearby healthy cells and the co (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Mesothelioma – Are You at Risk? |
| |
| Thousands of people die due to mesothelioma. The airborne fibers of asbestos cause this fatal disease. The fibers stay in the air and when they enter our lungs they cause this disease.Almost everyone today is unprotected from asbestos but the degree of exposure differs from person to person. It is not necessary that if you are under minimal exposure, the degree of developing this disease is less, as the characteristic of the disease is very strange. But it is very obvious that those who are exposed to asbestos for a longer duration have more chances of getting this illness.If the nature of your work is asbestos milling or mining, shipbuilding trades, insulation work etc, the (read full article) |

| The commonest form of cancer in the United States today is skin cancer but, to many people's surprise, prostate cancer is the second most frequently seen type of cancer and results in some 30,000 deaths each year. So just what is prostate cancer?
The human body starts its life as a single cell which divides repeatedly to form new cells. As cell division continues so the newly created cells, acting as the building blocks of the human body, form themselves into walls of tissue creating the various parts that we recognize as the human body. This is not however the end of the process as, throughout our lives, our bodies change constantly with old cells wearing out and dying and othe (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Breast Cancer Prevention Tips |
| |
| Despite all the 'noise' about breast cancer being one of the worst killers of women in the world today, it is annoying that most women still do not take active steps towards protecting themselves from this dreaded condition. Although, the increasing prevalence of breast cancer and perhaps other cancerous conditions has been linked to environmental factors such as the increasing levels of radiation and chemicals released into the air, water, soil and food that we consume in the civilized world; or to genetic and hereditary factors, the role of other self imposed factors cannot be ignored.There are a lot of things every woman can do individually or collectively, to prevent breast ca (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Lung Cancer Symptoms |
| |
| In approximately 25% of people with lung cancer, there are no symptoms and the cancer is detected during screening or a routine physical examination. However, in three-quarters of lung cancer patients there are warning symptoms and signs that can alert the patient or their physician.Most commonly, lung cancer patients experience respiratory symptoms such as shortness of breath, wheezing, hoarseness and a persistent cough. These symptoms are very common among smokers, and are also present in a number of other conditions such as asthma, emphysema and chest infections. A new cough should always be evaluated, as it may be a symptom of lung cancer. Lung cancer may spread to the ches (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Mesothelioma Symptoms: An Overview |
| |
| Malignant mesotheliomas are rare cancers that form in the tissues lining the lungs (pleura), abdomen (peritoneum) or heart (pericardium). Pleural mesothelioma, which affects the lining of the lungs, is the most common, accounting for about 75 percent of all malignant mesotheliomas. Between ten and twenty percent of all malignant mesotheliomas are peritoneal mesotheliomas. Pericardial mesotheliomas are extremely rare. A history of exposure to asbestos is found in most individuals with mesothelioma. The time from exposure to onset of cancer may be as long as thirty years; this is why most people with malignant mesothelioma are between 50 and 70 years old.Many symptoms of maligna (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Clinical Mesothelioma Symptoms |
| |
| Many people who have clinical symptoms of mesothelioma have advanced disease at the time of diagnosis. This is because symptoms tend to present late in most cases. The majority of people have symptoms for only two or three months before a diagnosis of malignant mesothelioma is made. About one quarter of all patients with malignant mesothelioma have symptoms for at least six months before diagnosis.A high index of suspicion is needed to make a timely diagnosis of malignant mesothelioma. This is because many of the clinical symptoms are seen in other conditions. Symptoms of pleural mesothelioma, such as cough, chest pain and breathlessness, are also seen in a number of other che (read full article) |
