If you want to beleive that cancer is gene related go ahead ... I for one file that under junk science as well, in fact, it’s pure foolishness
Oncogenes, for those of you in Rio Linda; are genes associated with cancer.
They are usually mutated in cancer such that the genes that prevent cell division are mutated off, and/or the genes that promote cell division are mutated on.
Now why is it that the p53 gene is mutated in about 50% of cancers?
If you claim to be smarter than a doctor and know how the body works; perhaps you can explain to me why about 50% of cancers have the p53 gene mutated?
Why is there such a high heritability of some forms of cancer that can be directly linked to a gene mutation if there is no connection between genes and cancer?

Cancer is not always directly related to genes, but genes definitely have a bearing on how resistant you are to cancer-causing factors.
