Need to get with the band wagon. Everything causes cancer. You have it in you all the time.

According to the MAYO Clinic, cancer refers to any one of a large number of diseases characterized by the development of abnormal cells that divide uncontrollably and have the ability to infiltrate and destroy normal body tissue. Normal cells listen to signals from neighboring cells and stop growing when they encroach on nearby tissues (something called contact inhibition.) Cancer cells ignore these cells and invade nearby tissues.

The immune system can help to fight cancer. And it is happening all the time at small levels of need. So the body controls it until it gets too big for it to fight.

That’s why a “cure for cancer” is likely to never be. At least in the same sense like polio or smallpox has been “eradicated (or cured)”.

They are finding now that cancer is a chronic type of disease such as diabetes they are starting to treat it as such by using one’s own immune system with treatments patients remain on for life!!! Pancreatic carcinoma is the one absolute deadly form they haven’t made HUGE strides in!!!!

Don’t feed the ignorant with truth. I always love the “sugar feeds cancer ones”. The main item our bodies use all food to create is sugar. No blood sugar will cure cancer by killing the patient. Lol. Hysterical and moronic at the same time. I guess no HS taught biology to the masses.
