Am very certain the above will baffle many people. Statistics globally has identified cancer as one of the major killer diseases in the world. This fact has been consistent over the years and its becoming a nightmare that has refused to go away.
The truth is that CANCER as dreaded as it is does not kill. Ignorance is responsible for the majority of avoidable death related to cancer.
Cancer does not just start overnight. It is a staged condition beginning with symptoms which are ignored in most cases or wrongly diagnosed even when medical attention is sought.
My mentor has a favorite saying, "there are no INCURABLE diseases, there are only INCURABLE people". Cancer is not irreversible. A lot of people have won the battles over cancer and have gone ahead to live beyond the dates predicted for their death.
Do You Know?
1. That the human body is made up of trillion of cells. The cells normally grow, divide into other cells and then die in that order.
2. That during the growing years of a person, the cells grow and divide faster while they are slowed down in adulthood. In fact, most cells grow and divide to replace old, dead, impaired and worn out cells in adulthood.
3. That over 50 billion cells in your body die daily and 50 billion new cells replace the old ones.
4. DNA (DeoxyriboNucleic Acid) is the programmed software that controls the activity of every cell both in plants, animals and humans.
5. When there is a damage to the DNA, cells also have the ability to repair the damage or the cell dies.
6. Cells become cancer cells when the damage is not repaired and the cells instead of dying continues to grow and divide into other cells with the damaged and abnormal DNA. They sometimes grow into other tissues a phenomenon uncommon to normal cells.
7. Cancer cells invade other tissues in the body to form tumors in most cases and in cases like leukemia, tumors are rarely formed but the cancer cells invade the blood forming organs and circulate through other tissues where they grow.
8. The tumors formed by cancer cells often replace the normal tissue in a process called metastasis. They overcrowd the normal cells as the affected tissue becomes dominated by the cancer cells. Cancers are named according to the part of the body where they invade e.g. breast cancer, lung cancer, colon cancer, etc.
9. Not all tumors are malignant (cancerous). Benign tumors are abnormal collection of tissues or lumps in any part of the body. Unlike the malignant cells, they cant invade or grow into other tissues which limits their spread. Tumors that are not cancers (benign) can have mass that may inconvenience an organ in the body.
10. Lifestyle and diet can reduce the risk of developing many types of cancer. They can also REVERSE the incidence of cancer in anyone.
