Interesting, but I dont follow the part where he says cancer is a preprogrammed response to stress. Does that mean that those of us who dont stress dont get cancer?
"Stress" is, I imagine, being used in the broadest possible sense. Being out in the sun a lot causes "stress" to skin cells. That "stress" could therefore be the "key" that "unlocks" the skin cancer genetic trigger.
Same thing with smoking, which causes "stress" in lung tissue (triggering lung cancer). Or eating copious amounts of red meat, which correlates to all kinds of cancer (pancreatic, for instance).
