While doctors have an idea of what may increase your risk of cancer, the majority of cancers occur in people who don’t have any known risk factors. Factors known to increase your risk of cancer include:...CONTINUE READING THE FULL ARTICLE>>>
Your age
Cancer can take decades to develop. That’s why most people diagnosed with cancer are 65 or older. While it’s more common in older adults, cancer isn’t exclusively an adult disease — cancer can be diagnosed at any age…CONTINUE READING>>>
Your habits
Certain lifestyle choices are known to increase your risk of cancer. Smoking, drinking more than one drink a day for women and up to two drinks a day for men, excessive exposure to the sun or frequent blistering sunburns, being obese, and having unsafe sex can contribute to cancer.
You can change these habits to lower your risk of cancer — though some habits are easier to change than others.
Your family history
Only a small portion of cancers are due to an inherited condition. If cancer is common in your family, it’s possible that mutations are being passed from one generation to the next.
You might be a candidate for genetic testing to see whether you have inherited mutations that might increase your risk of certain cancers. Keep in mind that having an inherited genetic mutation doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll get cancer.
Otto Heinrich Warburg was a German Physiologist and Medical Doctor born in 1883 and died in 1970.
Otto discovered a critical biochemical activity in our cells which would be a significant ideology in understanding how cancerous cells survive in our bodies through cellular respiration and metabolism.
This ideology is known as the WARBURG EFFECT and it shows that cancerous cells use a lot of glucose for survival.
He won a Nobel Prize in 1931 for this discovery.
This study opened up possibilities of curing cancer by restricting glucose intake.
The best cure for cancer is by starving those cancer cells. When they are denied glucose, they undergo something called apoptosis or cell death. The immune cells through autophagy then swallow them and remove them from the system.
This is achieved by:
* Avoiding carbs
* Exercising
* Embracing prolonged fasting
* Ketogenesis
All these lead to apoptosis of cancerous cells.
If we adopt the ideology of Warburg, the world at large wouldn’t be terrorized by cancer…CONTINUE READING>>>
