Cancer Prevention 101: What You Need to Know (2024 Edition)

Image
Most of us know Steve Jobs, Chadwick Boseman (Black Panther), Robin Gibb (Bee Gees), Donna Summer, Farrah Fawcett, Eartha Kitt, Peter Jennings, Paul Newman, Patrick Swayze, Sydney Pollack, Michael Crichton, Bob Denver, Ted Kennedy, Jerry Orbach, Anne Bancroft, William Rehnquist, and Tony Snow, just to name a few. What do they have in common? They all died from 'cancer'. Most of them have access to the best possible medical care available in the world. What are we missing here? Is cancer still a mystery to mankind? Is cancer preventable? Can foods and diet influence your risk of getting cancer? What types of foods reduce your risk and types that might increase your risk? What about vitamin and mineral supplements? Can supplements reduce your cancer risk or do they actually increase your cancer risk? And yes, there are many guides out there but most of them are product centric, biased and do not incorporate the latest and up to date evidence.  What is Cancer? Cancer is the second

10 Best Supplements to Fight Cancer: Evidence Based Literature Review (2024)

Image
The quest for cancer prevention and treatment has been shrouded in ambiguity when it comes to the world of diet, lifestyle and dietary supplements. The bewildering array of options leaves us questioning their efficacy, for without robust scientific evidence, their true potential remains enigmatic.  Can foods and diet influence your risk of getting cancer? What types of foods reduce your risk and types that might increase your risk? What about vitamin and mineral supplements? Can supplements reduce your cancer risk or do they actually increase your cancer risk?  The term anti-cancer supplements can be a little misleading. Some supplements may help reduce a person’s risk of developing cancer or support the body during cancer treatment. This article compiles over 200 references and supporting studies related to cancer and the realm of supplements, diet and lifestyle. It's important to note that dietary supplements are not regulated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the

Ivermectin to Treat Cancer in Humans (2024)

Image
Ivermectin is a widely used antiparasitic drug that's listed on the World Health Organization's essential medicines list 1   and approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. In low- and middle-income countries, ivermectin is commonly used to treat parasitic diseases including onchocerciasis (river blindness), strongyloidiasis and other diseases caused by soil-transmitted helminthiasis, or parasitic worms. 2 The drug is also used to treat scabies and lice. It's estimated that the total number of ivermectin doses distributed is equal to one-third of the world's population and, as such, "ivermectin at the usual doses (0.2–0.4 mg/kg) is considered extremely safe for use in humans." 3 Ivermectin also has demonstrated antiviral and anti-inflammatory properties and made headlines for its potential role in treating COVID-19 4  — although much of the positive press has been censored and falsely labeled misinformation. 5  Now researchers are highlighting another p

Intermittent Fasting and Cancer: Martial Arts Instructor Shares Experience Reversing Stage 3 Colon Cancer

Image
About four months after being diagnosed with stage 3   colorectal cancer , Fred Evrard was told by his smiling doctor: “Mr. Evrard, you are cancer free.” A lot had happened in just four months. Stage 3 Colon Cancer Hit When His Body Was at Its Peak On Sept. 10, 2020, Fred Evrard, aged 48, experienced a devastating blow in his life—he was diagnosed with stage 3 colon cancer, and the tumor in his body reached 10 centimeters in length. The news came as a real surprise to Evrard, a strong athletic martial arts instructor. Evrard has been practicing martial arts since he was a child. Over the past few decades, he has been active in various fitness activities such as boxing, parkour, tai chi, qigong, and meditation, in addition to teaching martial arts classes. His body was in prime shape when he was diagnosed, weighing 70 kg (154 lbs) with only nine percent body fat. His lifestyle and diet were also extremely healthy in the eyes of ordinary people. Evrard has been a vegetarian for many year

Eat These Foods to Starve Cancer Cells to Death

Image
Some people may not realize this, but many people have cancer cells in their bodies without presenting much danger. Fortunately, there are some common foods that can cut off cancer cell’s nutrient supply and starve them to death. Autopsies of individuals who died of trauma often reveal microscopic colonies of cancer cells , also known as in situ tumors. Some people call them “disease-free cancers.” For instance,  researchers  in Denmark performed autopsies on women aged 40 to 50, who  never  had cancer during their lifetime, and found that 39 percent of them had small cancerous lesions in their breasts. Only 1 percent of women in this age group would be diagnosed with breast cancer. Examination  of some men in their 60s showed that 46 percent of them had histological evidence of prostate cancer, which is consistent with the findings of the autopsy study. However, the prevalence of prostate cancer in men aged 60 to 70 is actually around 1 percent. There is another exam

Fenbendazole vs Ivermectin: What's the Difference?

Image
In recent years, unconventional drugs like Fenbendazole and Ivermectin have gained popularity as alternative forms of treatment for cancer. We’ve broken down the essential things you need to know about these medications for cancer in humans. What Is Ivermectin? Ivermectin is an anti-parasite drug used to treat various parasite infections in humans, but it can also be used to treat other health conditions like river blindness, onchocerciasis, intestinal strongyloidiasis, and onchocerciasis. What Is Fenbendazole? Fenbendazole is a benzimidazole that offers a wide spectrum anthelmintic effect. It is a dewormer medication used to treat parasites in dogs and cats. Some common names for Fenbendazole are Panacur® and Safe-Guard®. The Role of Ivermectin in Cancer Symptoms Several clinical trials have been done to prove the effectiveness of Ivermectin against cancer cells with low enough dosages to be non-toxic to the normal cells. Research suggests that Ivermectin suppresses the growth and sp

The Truth About Colonoscopy: Be informed before giving consent (Part 1)

Image
Colonoscopy is the most commonly used method to screen for colon cancer, which is said to account for around 10% of all cancers globally. It is second leading cause of cancer death in men and women [combined] in the U.S.   As of 2020 , approximately 69% of adults aged 50 to 75 years have had a least one colonoscopy, representing 62.3 million people. Colon cancer is usually diagnosed when a person is in their 60s and it is more common in African Americans. For more stats about colon cancer  go here. A Short History of Colonoscopes The first fiberoptic colonoscope was developed by Drs. William Wolff and Hiromi Shinya of Beth Israel Medical Center in New York City in 1969. This was a huge leap forward over a rigid pipe, called a sigmoidoscope, previously used to peer into the rectum of patients who had signs of cancer. The flexible scope allows the practitioner to examine the entire length of the colon. By 1973, more than 5,000 colonoscopies had been performed, demonstrating the utility a

Ivermectin for Colorectal Cancer?

Image
Your colon, which is also known as the large intestine, plays an incredibly important role in your health. As part of the digestive tract, bacteria in the colon are responsible for the final breakdown of food material before it passes into the rectum and is excreted through the anus.(1) Evidence published in Frontiers in Pharmacology show the antiparasitic medication ivermectin may have a new application in the treatment of colorectal cancer (CRC).(2) Researchers are hopeful this may have a positive impact on colon cancer deaths. Colon cancer is the third leading cancer diagnosis and third cause of cancer death in the U.S.(3) According to data from the National Cancer Institute, 4  an estimated 149,500 new cases of colorectal cancer will be diagnosed in 2021 and an estimated 52,980 people will die. This represents 7.9% of all new cases of cancer diagnosed in 2021 and 8.7% of all cancer deaths. There are modifiable risk factors associated with colorectal cancer. 5  For example, li

New Test Detects 14 Cancer Types at Stage One, When Most Curable

Image
Cancer is difficult to cure in later stages, so early detection is essential to curing the disease. New research finds an early detection method for many cancers that could significantly improve cancer survival rates. Cancer Growth May Rely On Metabolic Changes Increasing evidence has shown that cancer cells’ rapid growth relies on a shift in their metabolism.  Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are a type of sugar that plays an important part in metabolism. A 2016  study  by Gatto indicated that these sugars were excellent biomarkers to non-invasively detect kidney cancer. Using the GAGs test, patients with undetected cancer showed a 39 to 50 percent lower risk of death, and the test predicted cancer location with 89 percent accuracy. Francesco Gatto, Ph.D., study author from Chalmers University of Technology told The Epoch Times, GAGs feature structural changes in the blood and urine that appeared to be “a universal signature” across cancer types. This signature was detectable in very small,

Colon Cancer: Study Shows Dietary Changes Can Shrink Tumors

Image
Quentin Oliver Lee, age 34, died of colon cancer on December 1, 2022. A Broadway actor and singer, Lee announced that he was diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer just six months ago. Lee’s devastating and untimely death comes on the heels of bad news: Rates of colorectal cancers, especially among young people, have been rising in the United States and other countries in the industrialized world, according to a recent American Cancer Society report . Colon cancer in the United States accounted for 7.9 percent of new cancer cases in 2022, and 8.6 percent of deaths,  according to the National Cancer Institute . An estimated 52,580 people will die from colon cancer this year. The good news is that we have a growing body of evidence—both high-quality scientific studies and patients’ personal experiences—that shows that diet and lifestyle changes can effectively stop cancerous cells in their tracks.  One of the most recent, and promising of these
