"The new study claims that adopting a healthy lifestyle can significantly reduce your chances of cancer"
This appears directly under a picture of fruits and vegetables, which subliminally suggest the prevailing view that meat is cancer causing.
It is indeed a very complex subject , and modern science for the most part is clueless to the ultimate reality in many regards.....genetics is a pseudoscience that has so far failed to provide the kind of revelations that have been promised since the completion of the human genome project. Billions of dollars have been spent in the hopes of discovering some capitalizable secrete that could be used to design highly profitable and monopolizable treatments, which could somehow magically and expensively reverse the biological damage done, to beings whom live out of balance with the natural order.
Modern sciences attitude toward cancer, for all the advances in the last few generations is still very similar to the dark age belief in demonic possession. For evidence of this you needn't look any further than the standardize, acceptable and highly lucrative practice of using radiation and Chemo to burn the cancer out of the possessed. Cancer is not some anomaly that must be attacked as one would attack an invading army....Cancer is the end game when an organism can no longer maintain itself due to factors such as the accumulative environmental and epigenetic degradation at both the macro and micro level.
In this view it is very well possible that those who carry "cancer genes" were victims of some environmental contamination which epigentically caused those genes to activate....in this case the genetics are a reaction to the environmental condition which predisposes one to cancer and is not the cause... this understanding if properly pursued would turn the entire establishments view of cancer on its head......in fact I have a much more plausible thesis...which explains how perhaps these so called cancer genes are in fact epigenetic protective adaptions which arouse out of a desperate attempt of the cells to mitigate some even greater danger which threatened the life of the entire entity at some point in its genetic history. These "Cancer"genes although demonized by the superstitions of genetic science may in some respects actually have served a valuable function. Perhaps those who carry the certain cancer genes had parents who were exposed to DDT( or some other mutigenic poison) and the bodys only way to mitigate such toxicity was to spin the roulette wheel of genetic Juan hope...and out of that came some mutugenic adaption which allowed an entire generation to survive. In this view we could see cancer genes as a kind of collateral damage,(genetic scar tissue?) which though it doesn't appear to serve any function currently, at some time in the evolutionary history it may have played some undiscovered role in adaptation and survival in extreme and adverse situations.
The particulars vary greatly, so there can be no singular consensus on exactly what cancer is, so there is no choice but to use generalities to explain the jest of it.... It is my view that what cancer actually is, is inextricably linked to life essential possesses such as mutigenic adaptation, holistic mitigation of environmental imbalance and divine evolution... its a part of the life process which under less severe circumstances allows ones being to cope with genetic damage and environmentally induced mutagenisis...cells bombarded with continual stress hormones, antigens ,cytokines, carcinogenic substances...will begin to alter their own genetic expression in a way that is a part of epi-lamarckian evolution...these alterations in gene expression and cellular functioning are typical and under relatively tolerable conditions the multi cellular entity as a whole uses the information communicated by these altered cells to realign itself and stimulate appropriate immune responses in order to bring the entire being back into homeostasis( to the best of lifes abilities) If the health of the being is not severely affected on the whole by the carcinogenic damage of some of its cells then the aberrant growth of afflicted cells is kept in control by the bodies systems, only when these systems break down do the cancer cells become unleashed and begin to run amok.
Seeing cancer from this view makes it seem absurd to use immune destruction treatments such as radiation and chemo, as the first course of medical intervention to take..it also calls into question the validity of the Frankenstein that claims that cancer can be cut out at the genetic level ......Instead of burning the cancer cells out or deleting gene sequences, why not in every case of newly discovered cancer, begin to nourish and support the 50 trillion cells that haven't gone insane, and let them lead the assault, while working in harmony with the biological systems to provide supportive treatments?
