NATURAL CANCER KILLER

NATURAL CANCER KILLER
Let me pass some very useful and informative Health related subject...read it carefully and if you believe it is good ,pass to your friends.
Natural Cancer KILLER - 10,000 times stronger than Chemo and more.....
How many people died in vain while this billion-dollar drug maker concealed the secret of the miraculous Graviola tree?
If there ever was a single example that makes it dramatically clear why the existence of Health Sciences Institute is so vital to Americans like you, it's the incredible story behind the Graviola tree.The truth is stunningly simple: Deep within the Amazon Rainforest grows a tree that could literally revolutionize what you, your doctor, and the rest of the world thinks about cancer treatment and chances of survival. The future has never looked more promising.Research shows that with extracts from this miraculous tree it now may be possible to...
Attack cancer safely and effectively with an all-natural therapy that does not cause extreme nausea, weight loss and hair loss
Protect your immune system and avoid deadly infections
Feel stronger and healthier throughout the course of the treatment
Boost your energy and improve your outlook on life The source of this information is just as stunning: It comes from one of America 's largest drug manufacturers, the fruit of over 20 laboratory tests conducted since the 1970's! What those tests revealed was nothing short of mind numbing... Extracts from the tree were shown to:
Effectively target and kill malignant cells in 12 types of cancer, including colon, breast, prostate, lung and pancreatic cancer.
The tree compounds proved to be up to 10,000 times stronger in slowing the growth of cancer cells than Adriamycin, a commonly used chemotherapeutic drug!
What's more, unlike chemotherapy, the compound extracted from the Graviola tree selectively hunts down and kills only cancer cells. It does not harm healthy cells! The amazing anti-cancer properties of the Graviola tree have been extensively researched-- so why haven't you heard anything about it? If Graviola extract is as half as promising as it appears to be--why doesn't every single oncologist at every major hospital insist on using it on all his or her patients?The spine-chilling answer illustrates just how easily our health--and for many, our very lives(!)--are controlled by money and power.
Graviola--the plant that worked too well
One of America 's biggest billion-dollar drug makers began a search for a cancer cure and their research centered on Graviola, a legendary healing tree from the Amazon Rainforest.Various parts of the Graviola tree--including the bark, leaves, roots, fruit and fruit-seeds- -have been used for centuries by medicine men and native Indians in South America to treat heart disease, asthma, liver problems and arthritis. Going on very little documented scientific evidence, the company poured money and resources into testing the tree's anti-cancerous properties-- and were shocked by the results. Graviola proved itself to be a cancer-killing dynamo.But that's where the Graviola story nearly ended.The company had one huge problem with the Graviola tree--it's completely natural, and so, under federal law, not patentable. There's no way to make serious profits from it.It turns out the drug company invested nearl! y seven years trying to synthesize two of the Graviola tree's most powerful anti-cancer ingredients. If they could isolate and produce man-made clones of what makes the Graviola so potent, they'd be able to patent it and make their money back. Alas, they hit a brick wall. The original simply could not be replicated. There was no way the company could protect its profits--or even make back the millions it poured into research.As the dream of huge profits evaporated, their testing on Graviola came to a screeching halt. Even worse, the company shelved the entire project and chose not to publish the findings of its research!Luckily, however, there was one scientist from the Graviola research team whose conscience wouldn't let him see such atrocity committed. Risking his career, he contacted a company that's dedicated to harvesting medical plants from the Amazon Rainforest and blew the whistle.
Miracle unleashed
When researchers at the Health Sciences Institute were alerted to the news of Graviola, they began tracking the research done on the cancer-killing tree. Evidence of the astounding effectiveness of Graviola--and its shocking cover-up--came in fast and furious......The National Cancer Institute performed the first scientific research in 1976. The results showed that Graviola's "leaves and stems were found effective in attacking and destroying malignant cells." Inexplicably, the results were published in an internal report and never released to the public......Since 1976, Graviola has proven to be an immensely potent cancer killer in 20 independent laboratory tests, yet no double-blind clinical trials--the typical benchmark mainstream doctors and journals use to judge a treatment's value--were ever initiated......A study published in the Journal of Natural Products, following a recent stud! y conducted at Catholic University of South Korea stated that one chemical in Graviola was found to selectively kill colon cancer cells at "10,000 times the potency of (the commonly used chemotherapy drug) Adriamycin.. ."...The most significant part of the Catholic University of South Korea report is that Graviola was shown to selectively target the cancer cells, leaving healthy cells untouched. Unlike chemotherapy, which indiscriminately targets all actively reproducing cells (such as stomach and hair cells), causing the often devastating side effects of nausea and hair loss in cancer patients....A study at Purdue University recently found that leaves from the Graviola tree killed cancer cells among six human cell lines and were especially effective against prostate, pancreatic and lung cancers...
Seven years of silence broken--it's finally here! A limited supply of Graviola extract, grown and harvested by indigenous people in Brazil , is finally available in America . The full Graviola story--including where you can get it and how to use it--is included in Beyond Chemotherapy: New Cancer Killers, Safe as Mother's Milk, a Health Sciences Institute FREE special bonus report on natural substances that will effectively revolutionize the fight against cancer.

FAQ

FAQ
Q. How common is breast cancer?

A. There are over many cases of breast cancer diagnosed in the USA and India each year. Overall, one woman in every nine will get breast cancer at some time in her life.

Q. Who is most at risk?

A. Breast cancer is overwhelmingly a female disease, but about 1% of cases occur in men (around 300 per year in the UK). Amongst women it becomes more common as age increases. More than 80% of cases occur in women over 50. Taking the contraceptive pill slightly increases the risk. Taking hormone replacement therapy significantly increases your risk somewhat more, but the health benefits derived from hormone replacement are better overall. Obesity and heavy drinking also significantly increase the risk.

Q. Does breast cancer run in families? "

A. Having one close relative (mother or sister) with breast cancer doubles your risk of getting breast cancer, when compared to women with no cases in the family. Having two close relatives affected increases your risk further.

There are a very few families in which breast cancer is very common - ie four or more cases. Most of these families carry faulty versions of the BRCA breast cancer genes. Women with a faulty BRCA gene have a 50% to 80% chance of getting breast cancer. Testing for faulty BRCA genes is available on the NHS."

Q. Is the use of deodorants linked to breast cancer? "

A. There has been a persistent internet rumour that underarm deodorants cause breast cancer and even one or two newspaper articles that suggested this was backed up by research findings. However, there is no good evidence from cancer research to support this ideA. On the contrary: in a large study comparing breast cancer patients and healthy women, there was no difference found at all in their use of underarm deodorants.

Are there different types of breast cancer?

There are two main places in the breast where cancer can occur: the lobules (the milk-producing tissue) and the ducts (which carry the milk to the nipple).

Ductal carcinoma in situ means an early cancer in the milk ducts. It can be detected by mammograms and is normally easy to cure.

Invasive ductal carcinoma means a cancer that started in the milk ducts but has now spread beyond them.
Lobular carcinoma in situ is not considered to be cancer. It is a pre-cancerous condition. Most women with lobular carcinoma in situ do not get breast cancer, but they have an increased risk of getting it, so they are given frequent checkups.

Invasive lobular carcinoma is a cancer that starts in the lobules and has spread. These can be difficult to diagnose as they do not always form a lump or show up on mammograms.
What are the symptoms of Breast Cancer?

Screening for breast cancer by mammography (X-raying the breast) is offered every three years in the UK to all women between 50 and 64. The highest number of cases of breast cancer occurs in women between these ages.

Mammography can detect very early breast tumours, when they are too small to be felt. In fact, most of the breast cancers detected by screening are at this very early stage, when they are relatively easy to cure. Studies have shown that women who take part in screening are more likely to have breast cancer diagnosed early and more likely to have it cured and, as a result, are less likely to die from it, than women who do not take part in mammography screening.

Another method of screening available to all women is to feel the breasts for any lumps. A guide on how to do this properly can be obtained at any doctors surgery.

Women should also check for the other main symptoms:

Change in the size or shape of a breast
Dimpling of the breast skin
The nipple becoming inverted
Swelling or a lump in the armpit
Diagnosis

The most important method used to diagnose breast cancer is by taking a biopsy (a tissue sample). A hollow needle is pushed into the breast lump to capture a tiny sample of the tissue. This is examined under a microscope. The shape and appearance of the cells in the tissue sample reveals whether the lump is benign, which is true of the vast majority, or if it is cancerous.

Q. How important is early detection? "

A. We can currently cure six out of every seven patients who are diagnosed when their breast cancer is at the early stage. However, if they are diagnosed when it has become advanced, the cure rate falls to about one in seven. It is extremely important to catch breast cancer at an early stage.

Q. How effective are the treatments?

A. Cancer Healer is really effective in Stomach Cancer and brings marked improvement even at the last stages. It treats stomach cancer promptly without any sideeffects and can also go in conjunction with chemo therapy as well as radio therapy and even after operations.

Q. How is stomach cancer diagnosed?

A. Normally, a procedure called endoscopy is used to see the inside of the stomach. Under sedation, a thin fibre-optic tube is passed down the throat. The inside of the stomach is lit up and photographed. Any growths can be spotted relatively easily by this method. Sometimes, more sophisticated endoscopes are used which can take a small sample of the stomach lining or even take an ultrasound scan from the inside of the stomach.

In some cases, a barium meal is used instead of endoscopy. The patient is given a white liquid to drink, containing the element barium. Then the stomach is observed through an X-ray screen. The way that the barium flows through the stomach will reveal any growths.

Q. What are the symptoms of stomach cancer?

A. Early stomach cancer often has no symptoms or merely causes a stomach ache. As it becomes more advanced, it can cause loss of appetite, nausea, vomiting, severe stomach pain and weight loss. Since many of these symptoms are also caused by food poisoning, stomach ulcers and several other conditions, all too often stomach cancers are not diagnosed until they are quite advanced.

Q. Does stomach cancer run in families?

A. A few cases of stomach cancer (about one in ten) appear to run in the family. We do not yet understand which genes are involved, so genetic testing is not yet possible.

Q. Who is at risk of stomach cancer?

A. "Diet - eating a diet high in preserved foods has been linked with higher rates of stomach cancer (see above).

Gender - stomach cancer is almost twice as common in men as in women.

Other diseases - people with pernicious anaemia or achlorhydria are more likely to get stomach cancer.

Infections- stomach infections by a bacterium called Helicobacter pylori, which is a major cause of stomach ulcers, is also associated with a much higher risk of stomach cancer.

Smoking - this is also known to increase the risk of getting stomach cancer.


Q. What causes stomach cancer?

A. The function of the stomach and the wide differences in stomach cancer rates between different countries make it almost certain that the food we eat is - or was - a major factor in the cause. The likely reason that the number of cases has dropped over the last fifty years is that refrigeration of food became common and people ate less pickled, salted, smoked and cured foods.

Q. Who is most likely to get stomach cancer?

A. Like many cancers, this type is most common in older people. Few cases occur below 50 years of age and the highest rates are in men and women over 70. Men are twice as likely to get stomach cancer as women. The risk of stomach cancer also depends a lot on where you live (see above). Korea and Japan have the highest rates, ten times the rate in the USA.

Q. How common is stomach cancer?

A. Stomach cancer is more common than most people realise. Each year there are many cases where the diet or the H. pylori leads to the stomach cancers worldwide.

Q. What is stomach cancer?

A. There are two main types of stomach cancer called the intestinal and diffuse types. Intestinal stomach cancer is more common amongst older patients and patients from high-risk groups (eg the Japanese and Koreans). Diffuse stomach cancer is found more frequently in women and people with blood group A. This variety of stomach cancer is more difficult to treat.

Q. Does diet affect the risk of getting lung cancer?

A. This is still being investigated, but research to date has not found any link between diet and lung cancer.

Q. Are there different types of lung cancer?

A. There are four main types of lung cancer: small cell lung cancer, squamous cell carcinoma, large cell carcinoma and adenocarcinomA. Tobacco smoking is strongly linked to the first three but only weakly linked to adenocarcinomA. However, this type of lung cancer has been linked to the use of low-tar cigarettes.

Q. What causes lung cancer?

A. The vast majority - over 80% - of lung cancers are caused by smoking tobacco or by indirect exposure to tobacco smoke (passive smoking). The other main causes are breathing industrial chemicals such as asbestos, arsenic and polycyclic hydrocarbons or the natural radioactive gas, radon.

Q. Does lung cancer run in families?

A. There are very few, if any, inherited conditions that increase the risk of lung cancer in non-smokers. However, not all of the people who smoke get lung cancer and there may be an inherited component which influences whether or not smoking will cause lung cancer.

Q. What are the symptoms of lung cancer?

A. There are a variety of symptoms of lung cancer, including difficulty breathing, coughing up blood, chest pain, loss of appetite, weight loss and general fatigue. Some lung cancers do not cause any noticeable symptoms until they are quite advanced and have spread to other parts of the body.

Q. How is lung cancer treated?

A. Cancer Healer is really effective in Lung Cancer and brings marked improvement even at the last stages. It treats lung cancer promptly without any side effects and can also go in conjunction with chemo therapy as well as radio therapy and even after operations.

Q. How is lung cancer diagnosed?

A. Lung cancers are sometimes first detected on routine chest X-rays. However, the main method of diagnosis is bronchoscopy, in which a thin, flexible tube is inserted down the airways (under anaesthetic), allowing doctors to see the inside of the lungs and even take a biopsy (a sample small of the suspect tissue). A CT scan, liver ultrasound or bone scan may also be used to find out if the cancer has spread.

Q. How effective are the treatments?

A. Improved treatments for children with leukaemia now mean that nearly nine out of ten of them can be cured by Cancer-Healer. However, the cure rates for adults with leukaemia are same as good as children. The platelets as well as the leucocyte counts comes within normal ranges and thus, cures the patient promptly by Cancer-Healer medicine,says Dr. Hari Krishna, Cancer specialist.

Q. How is leukaemia treated?

A. Cancer Healer makes the bone marrow functional and thus treats all types of blood cancers in an ideal way.it destroys the immature cells of blood and makes the bone marrow functional thus giving very good results in all types of blood cancers.

Q. How is leukaemia diagnosed?

A. Chronic leukaemias are usually diagnosed by taking a blood sample and examining the cells under a microscope. However, for lymphocytic leukaemias, it is necessary to take a bone marrow sample for an accurate diagnosis.

Q. What are the symptoms of leukaemia?

A. The main symptoms of leukaemia are anaemia, frequent bruising, infections and abnormal bleeding.

Q. Does leukaemia run in families?

A. An increased risk of leukaemia can run in families. If one person in the family has leukaemia, the other members have three times the normal risk of getting the same type of leukaemia.

Q. What do chronic and acute mean?

A. Leukaemias are also divided into the slower (called chronic) and faster growing (called acute). There are chronic and acute forms of both the lymphocytic and myeloid leukaemias. Chronic leukaemia cells tend to accumulate in the blood whereas acute leukaemia cells tend to accumulate in both the blood and bone marrow. All blood cells start their life in the bone marrow.

Q. Doesnt living under power lines increase the risk?

A. As per Dr. Tarang Krishna, Cancer physician, there is no reliable evidence that living near power lines or electricity generators is linked to an increased risk of leukaemia. Some research has found a link between people working in power generating facilities and a higher risk of leukaemia, but other studies have not.

Q. Who is at risk of leukaemia?

A. High levels of exposure to radiation are known to increase the risk of leukaemia, but the levels of exposure for the public, including people in the nuclear industry, radiologists, and people living near Sellafield, are so low that researchers cannot find any reliable evidence of increased risk for them. Smoking increases the risk of myeloid leukaemia. Exposure to benzene (an industrial chemical) has also been linked to a risk of these leukaemias. The chemotherapy and radiotherapy used to treat some other cancers does cause a slight increase in the risk of getting acute myeloid leukaemia, although this is low enough to justify the use of these therapies.

Q. Isnt leukaemia a childrens cancer?

A. About half of all cases of acute lymphocytic leukaemia are in children under 10 years old, with another quarter of cases occurring in adolescents. However, the other main types of leukaemia normally occurr in people over 50. There are many cases of leukaemia in the Asian subcontinent each year amongst children, with many of higher age groups,as well

Q. How common is leukaemia?

A. As per the data available, says Dr. Hari Krishna, Cancer Specialist,One third of the cases were acute myeloid leukaemia and another third were chronic lymphocytic leukaemia. One tenth were acute lymphocytic leukaemia and another tenth were chronic myeloid leukaemia. The rest were other, rarer types of leukaemia.

Q. What is Leukaemia?

A. Leukaemia is a cancer of the white blood cells. Just as there are many different
types of white blood cell, so there are many different types of leukaemia There are two main types: lymphocytic leukaemia (arising from a type of white blood cell called a lymphocyte) and myeloid leukaemia (arising from an immature type of white blood cell called a myeloid stem cell).

Q. How common is bladder cancer?

A. Bladder cancer is more common than people realise. Over 10,000 cases are diagnosed each year in the Indian sub-continent. The majority of these (about 7,500) are diagnosed in men, meaning that, on average, one man in thirty will get bladder cancer at some time in his life.

Q. How dangerous is bladder cancer?

A. The bladder cancer is really dangerous with Hb levels falling down due to increased blood loss through the urine. This rate however has gone low as per the medicinal advances.

Q. Who is at risk from bladder cancer?

A. According to Dr. Hari Krishna,there are virtually no cases of bladder cancer in people under 40 and the vast majority of cases are diagnosed after the age of 55. There is a very high rate of bladder cancer in countries such as Iraq and Egypt, where it is associated with an infection of the bladder called schistomiasis, which is endemic in those countries. Some industrial chemicals used in dying are known to be linked with a high risk of bladder cancer. These chemicals are no longer in use.

Q. Is smoking linked to bladder cancer?

A. Smokers are two to five times more likely to get bladder cancer than normal,says Dr. Hari krishna (cancer specialist). The more they smoke, or the longer they smoke, the higher the risk. It is estimated that half of all bladder cancers in men, and one third in women, are the result of smoking.

Q. What are the symptoms of bladder cancer?

A. The most common symptom is blood in the urine, although there are many other conditions (such as bladder infections) which can cause this. The other less common symptoms (frequency of urination and pain when urinating) can also have other causes.

Q. How is bladder cancer diagnosed?

A. First, a urine sample is taken and sent for analysis, too see if any abnormal cells can be found in it. The next test is usually cytoscopy: under local anaesthetic a thin flexible tube is passed up the urethra (the tube that carries the urine out) and into the bladder. Fibre-optics in the tube allow the doctor to inspect the inside of the bladder. In some cases, X-rays and blood tests may also be required.

Q. How is bladder cancer treated?

A. Cancer Healer is really effective in Bladder Cancer and brings marked improvement even at the last stages. It treats bladdar cancer promptly without any side effects and can also go in conjunction with chemo therapy as well as radio therapy and even after operations.

Q. How effective are these treatments?

A. This depends on how advanced the cancer is and the age of the patient. Patients with early bladder cancer and patients under 40 have an 80 to 90% chance of surviving for five years and longer. If the cancer has spread into the muscle wall of the bladder, or if the patient is over 80, only about half of them survive for five years after diagnosis. Unusually, men seem to survive bladder cancer better than women, although we do not understand why.

Q. What is the Bladder?

A. The bladder serves as a reservoir for urine in our bodies. It permits the storage of urine for a period of time before releasing it as we urinate. It can be thought of as a muscular balloon; a flattened structure when there is no urine (immediately after a person urinates) but able to be filled to up to a liter (though this would be very uncomfortable) with urine. Normally, as the bladder nears 500 cc (1/2 of a liter), we feel the urge to urinate. The muscular structure of the bladder also helps other pelvic muscles push the urine out when it is released. The bladder is located deep in the pelvis, just above the pubic symphysis, which is a bone that can be felt in the midline on the front of our pelvis. In fact, when the bladder is over distended, it can be felt by a physician. Ureters empty urine into the bladder from the kidneys, and the urethra leads out from the bladder, emptying urine out of our bodies.

Q. What is bladder cancer?

A. The definition of a tumor is a mass of quickly and abnormally growing cells. Tumors can be either benign or malignant. Benign tumors have uncontrolled cell growth, but without any invasion into normal tissues and without any spread. A malignant tumor is called cancer when these tumor cells gain the propensity to invade tissues and spread locally as well as to distant parts of the body. In this sense, bladder cancer occurs when cells in the lining of the bladder grow uncontrollably and form tumors that can invade normal tissues and spread to other parts of the body.

Cancers are described by the types of cells from which they arise. Bladder cancers arise almost exclusively from the lining of the bladder. In the United States, 98% of bladder cancers are called transitional cell carcinomas. This simply means that the cancer started in the lining of the bladder, which is made up of transitional cells that appear elliptical under the microscope. Less commonly are other types of cancers that arise from the lining of the bladder, called adenocarcinomas, squamous cell carcinomas and small cell carcinomas. A common way for bladder cancers to grow is called a papillary growth pattern. When a bladder cancer grows this way, it can be noninvasive, i.e., not invading into tissues at all, and hence not having a risk for distant spread (as long as it is treated). In addition to other invasive cancers, patients are sometimes diagnosed with precancerous lesions, called carcinoma-in-situ. Carcinoma-in-situ occurs when the lining of the bladder undergoes changes similar to cancerous changes without any invasion into the deeper tissues. Hence, while the cells themselves have cancer-like qualities, there is no risk of spread, as no invasion has occurred. However, both papillary bladder cancers and cancer-in-situ may become invasive and cause problems if not treated.

Q. Am I at risk for bladder cancer?

A. Bladder cancer is the fourth most common cancer in men and the eighth most common cancer in women,says Dr. Tarang Krishna, cancer physician. Over 50,000 cases are diagnosed every year in the United States, with over 12,000 deaths. The incidence is almost same in IndiA. Classically, bladder cancer is thought of as a disease that affects older men, with men affected more than women by a 3:1 ratio and 2/3 of the cases diagnosed in people over the age of 65. Cigarette smoking is the largest risk factor for bladder cancer (yet another reason to stop smoking). Smokers have 2-4 times the risk of having bladder cancer, and it contributes to up to 50% of all bladder cancers that are diagnosed. Other than Schistosoma haematobium infections, the only other risk factors known are from occupational exposures, such as polychromatic hydrocarbons (benzene, benzidine). More recently, an association has been made between chlorinated drinking water and bladder cancer, says Dr. Tarang. Though there have been suggestions of saccharin and high intake of dietary fat and cholesterol being causative for bladder cancer, these have yet to be substantiated.

Q. How can I prevent bladder cancer?

A. Smoking is the strongest risk factor associated with the development of bladder cancer. Therefore, smoking cessation is the best way to prevent bladder cancer, as per world renowned cancer specialist Dr. Hari Krishna Also, obviously reducing the exposure to carcinogenic compounds should decrease the risk of developing bladder cancer. Other than these preventative measures, decreasing the risk of bladder cancer relies on early detection of symptoms and possibly screening high-risk individuals.

Q. What screening tests are available?

A. The goal of screening tests are to detect cancers early and initiate treatment when the cancer is in an early stage, or even before it becomes invasive. Cytologic examination of urine (looking for abnormal cells in urine) has been the most commonly tested screening tool. It involves testing urine for the presence of abnormal cells, which would indicate the possibility of a cancer. This method is fairly inexpensive and without risk to the patient. If abnormal cells are seen, over 95% of the time it accurately predicts the presence of bladder cancer. However, a fair amount of cancers can be missed using this method. Also, the incidence of preclinical (too small to cause any symptoms) bladder cancer in the general population is likely too low for cytologic examination of urine to be useful as a mass screening tool. Routine examination of the urine for the detection of blood (by far the most common presentation of bladder cancer) has also been tested and also appears to be inadequate for mass screening. Therefore, there is no tried screening method for bladder cancer, so the best method for detecting bladder cancer and preventing an aggressive bladder cancer is to not smoke or stop smoking and to not ignore the symptoms of bladder cancer, which usually involves blood noted in the urine (see below).

Q. What are the signs of bladder cancer?

A. By far the most common sign of bladder cancer is the presence of blood in the urine, called hematuriA. The blood in the urine can either be noticeable by the naked eye, called gross hematuria, or noted only when the urine is analyzed in a laboratory, called microscopic hematuriA. Either gross hematuria or microscopic hematuria is present in over 80% of cases of bladder cancer. Therefore, when someone is noted to have blood in the urine, it must be proven to be something other than bladder cancer.

Other signs of bladder cancer could include symptoms of a urinary tract infection. These include increased frequency of urination, a feeling of urgency to urinate, pain (burning) with urination, and the feeling of incomplete bladder emptying. These are all caused by irritation of the bladder wall by the tumor.

In advanced cases of bladder cancer, the tumor can actually obstruct either the entrance of urine into the bladder or the exit of urine from the bladder. This causes severe flank pain, infection, and damage to the kidneys. Obviously, bladder cancers that cause these symptoms need to be dealt with immediately.

Q What is anal cancer?

A. Normally, cells in the body will grow and divide to replace old or damaged cells in the body. This growth is highly regulated, and once enough cells are produced to replace the old ones, normal cells will stop dividing. Tumors occur when there is an error in this regulation and cells continue to grow uncontrolled. Tumors can either be benign or malignant. Although benign tumors grow uncontrolled, then do not break off and spread beyond where they started and do not invade into surrounding tissues. Malignant tumors, however, will grow uncontrolled in such a way that they invade and damage other tissues around them. They also gain the ability to break off from where they started and spread to other parts of the body, usually through the blood stream or through the lymphatic system where the lymph nodes are located. Over time, the cells within a malignant tumor become more abnormal and appear less like normal cells. This change in the appearance of cancer cells is called the tumor grade, and cancer cells are described as being well-differentiated, moderately-differentiated, poorly-differentiated, or undifferentiated. Well-differentiated cells are quite normal appearing and resemble the normal cells from which they originated. Undifferentiated cells are cells that have become so abnormal that often, we cannot tell what types of cells they started from. Anal cancer is a malignant tumor of either the anal canal or anal verge. When anal cancer does spread, it most commonly spreads through direct invasion into the surrounding tissue or through the lymphatic system. Spread of anal cancer through the blood is less common, although it can occur. Cancers arising from the anal verge represent 25% of all anal cancers and are often treated like skin cancers; however, they often respond more poorly to treatment than do other skin cancers or cancers of the anal canal. Treatment of anal cancers will be discussed in more detail below (under ""How is anal cancer treated?"")."

Q. What causes anal cancer and am I at risk?

A. Each year, there are many cases of anal cancer in the world . In general, the incidence of anal cancers has been increasing over the past 30-40 years. The vast majority (~85%) of cases and the incidence of anal cancer increases with age: patients with anal cancer have an average (median) age of 62 years. Cancers of the anal canal are more common in women,says Dr. Hari Krishna, while the incidence of cancers of the anal verge is roughly equal in both men and women. Several factors have been associated with anal cancer. Most importantly, infection with the human papilloma virus (HPV) has been shown to be related to anal cancers and has been associated with several other cancers including cervical cancer and cancers of the head and neck. HPV can be transmitted from person to person through sexual contact, so individuals with a history of multiple sexual partners, anal receptive intercourse, and genital warts are at an increased risk for infection,as per Dr. Hari KrishnA. Another sexually transmitted virus, the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), has been linked to anal cancers, and individuals infected with HIV are at increased risk for infection with HPV. The relationship between HIV and anal cancer will be discussed in more detail in the next section (entitled ""How are anal cancer and HIV/AIDS related?"") Several other factors have been linked to anal cancer. Anal cancer has been associated with smoking. Patients who smoke are three times more likely to develop anal cancer as those that dont smoke. The risk of anal cancer increases with the number of cigarettes smoked per day and the number of years that a person has been smoking. Because anal cancer appears to first start as anal dysplasia before progressing to anal cancer, patients with a history of AIN are at increased risk to develop anal cancer. There may be an association between anal cancer and suppression of the immune system. ""Cancer-Healer helps in boosting the immune system"". The rate of anal cancer is higher in patients who are immunosuppressed after organ transplants, although this relationship is not clear. Although there appears to be an increased rate of anal cancer in patients who have benign anal conditions such as anal fistulae, anal fissures, perianal abscesses, or hemorrhoids, it does not appear that these benign conditions are a cause of anal cancer. Alternatively, an undiagnosed anal cancer may actually be causing these conditions, and then is subsequently diagnosed when the benign condition is being treated."

Q. How are anal cancer and HIV/AIDS related?

A. HIV is the virus responsible for Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS), a severe disease that results in loss of the ability of the body to fight off certain types of infections. The incidence of anal cancer is increased in patients with HIV. This is likely related to the fact that patients with HIV are at an increased risk for infection with HPV as well. This relationship between HIV and HPV is not related to the immune status or the sexual practices of the patient infected with HIV. The rate of infection of HPV is increased in patients with HIV even if they do not engage in anal receptive intercourse and do not have evidence of suppression of their immune system. A patient is considered to have progressed from being HIV positive to having AIDS if they develop certain infections or diseases that are uncommon except in AIDS patients. Currently, anal cancer is not considered an AIDS-defining illness. However, frequently, patients who have been newly diagnosed with anal cancer are tested for HIV if they have other risk factors for infection with HIV.

Q. How can I prevent anal cancer?

A. Anal cancer is an uncommon cancer, and the risk of developing anal cancer is quite low. However, by avoiding the factors that are known to be related to anal cancer, the risk of developing anal cancer will become even lower. By far, the most important factor in developing anal cancer is infection with HPV. Recent studies have shown that giving vaccines against HPV prophylactically to patients at high risk for cervical cancer (which is also caused by HPV) reduces the risk that patients will develop cervical cancer. It is likely that HPV vaccines would result in a similar reduction in the risk of anal cancers; however, to date, no studies have been published confirming this. However, a number of studies examining the role of HPV vaccines and anal cancer are currently under development. In addition, it is possible that treatment of patients who are already infected with HPV with antiviral medications may also reduce the risk of anal cancers. Dr. Hari Krishna, world renowned cancer specialist mentions,avoiding smoking and unsafe sexual practices can reduce the risk of anal cancer. In patients who are known have anal dysplasia, careful surveillance can result in early detection of anal cancer, and a higher rate of cure with treatment. However, removal of areas of anal dysplasia is usually unsuccessful. The rate of recurrence of anal dysplasia after surgical or laser removal is very high.
Q. What are the signs of anal cancer? A. In about 50% of cases, the initial symptom of anal cancer is bleeding. Pain is somewhat less common, seen in about 30% of patients presenting with anal cancer; however, it can be quite severe. Occasionally, patients have the sensation of having a mass in the anus and can experience itching or anal discharge. Rarely, in advanced cases, anal cancers can disrupt the function of the anal muscles, resulting in loss of control of bowel movements. In general, these symptoms are vague and non-specific. As a result, in one-half to two-thirds of patients with anal cancer, a delay of up to 6 months occurs between the time when symptoms start and when a diagnosis is made.

Q. How is anal cancer staged?

A. Once a diagnosis of anal cancer is made, additional test should be ordered to determine the extent of the disease. A CT scan or MRI of the abdomen and pelvis should be performed to look for abnormally enlarged lymph nodes, which can result from spread of the cancer, and to examine the liver for metastatic disease. A chest x-ray is often performed to look for spread of the cancer to the lungs. Occasionally, an ultrasound of the tumor using a probe that is inserted into the anus can be used to determine the amount of invasion of the tumor into the surrounding tissues.

Anal cancer is most commonly staged using the TNM staging system which is determined by the American Joint Committee on Cancer. The ""T stage"" represents the extent of the primary tumor itself. The ""N stage"" represents the degree of involvement of the lymph nodes. The ""M stage"" represents whether or not there is spread of the cancer to distant parts of the body. These are scored as follows:

T Stage
Tis Carcinoma in situ
T0 No evidence of primary tumor
T1 Tumor £ 2 cm in greatest dimension
T2 Tumor >2 cm but £ 5 cm in greatest dimension
T3 Tumor >5 cm in greatest dimension
T4 Tumor of any size that invades adjacent organs including the vagina, urethra, or bladder. Tumors that invade the anal sphincter only do not quality as T4 tumors
N Stage
N0 No evidence of spread to the lymph node
N1 Spread of cancer to the lymph nodes directly adjacent to the rectum (perirectal lymph nodes)
N2 Spread of the cancer to lymph nodes of the inguinal or internal iliac lymph node chains on one side
N3 Spread of the cancer to lymph nodes of the inguinal or internal iliac lymph node chains on both sides OR cancer involvement of both the perirectal lymph nodes and the inguinal lymph nodes
M Stage
M0 No evidence of distant spread of the cancer
M1 Evidence of distant spread of the cancer including spread to lymph node chains other than the ones lists under ""N stage""
The stage of the cancer is reported by stating the stage of the T, the N, and the M. For example, a patient with a 4 cm tumor that had spread to perirectal lymph nodes, but did not invade into adjacent organs or spread to any other lymph nodes would be classified as T2N1M0. The staging can be further condensed into a stage group, which takes the various combinations of TNM and places them into groups designated stage 0-IV. While there is a system for stage grouping of anal cancers, these tumors are more commonly referred to by their direct TNM stage.

Although this system of cancer staging is quite complicated, it is designed to help physicians describe the extent of the cancer, and therefore, helps to direct what type of treatment is given."

Q. How is anal cancer treated?

A. Cancer Healer is really effective in Anal Cancer
and brings marked improvement even at the last stages. It treats anal cancer
promptly without any side effects and can also go in conjunction with chemo
therapy as well as radio therapy and even after operations.

Q. After I am treated for anal cancer, how will I be followed?

A. After treatment for anal cancer, patients are usually followed every 3-6 months for several years with or without CT scans. Therefore, it is not unusual to have a residual mass immediately after treatment. The presence of a residual mass does not mean that the treatment did not work. Overall, the chance of long-term cure of anal cancer depends on the extent of the disease at the time it was first diagnosed. Patients who present with smaller disease without lymph node involvement or distant metastases have a better chance at long-term tumor control than those with larger disease or with lymph node involvement or distant metastases. If anal cancers do recur, they usually do so within the first 2 years after treatment, although recurrences after 2 years can occur. In general, the further out from treatment a patient is without evidence of a recurrence, the better the chances that the cancer will never come back, as per Dr. Tarang Krishna with the clinical data available to him.

Q. How effective are the treatments?

A.If the cancer is diagnosed at an early stage, before it has spread outside the kidney, between 80 and 90% of patients can be cured. Once the tumour spreads outside the kidney, it is more difficult to treat. Depending on their age and other factors, between 50% and 80% of patients diagnosed at this stage can be cured. Advanced kidney caner is very difficult to cure completely and only about three in six or seven patients can be cured. For these figures, we are defining cured as surviving five years after the first diagnosis.

Q. How is kidney cancer treated? "

A. The main treatment is Cancer Healer, it is a medicine based on immunotherapy which has good survival rates.

Q. How is kidney cancer diagnosed?

A. The main methods of diagnosis are by X-ray, CAT scan or ultrasound scan. These tests can show if there is a mass in the kidney. Usually, they would be followed by a biopsy: taking a small tissue sample from the mass, by inserting a thin needle. The tissue can be examined to determine if the mass is cancerous or not.

Q. What are the symptoms of kidney cancer?

A. The most common symptom, found in about half of all cases, says Dr. Hari Krishna, is blood in the urine. However, only a minority of people with this symptom actually have cancer. In most cases it is caused by a kidney infection or kidney stones. Another quite common symptom is pain in the lower back or a swelling in the kidney areA. Fatigue, weight loss, anaemia and sweating, which are the symptoms for many types of cancer, have also been reported.

Q. How dangerous is kidney cancer?

A. Slightly over half of all people diagnosed with kidney cancer will die from the disease. The older the patient, the greater the risk, with only one third of patients over 70 surviving for more than five years after they are diagnosed. Over the last thirty years there has been a slow increase in the number of people dying from kidney cancer.

Q. Does kidney cancer run in families?

A. Kidney cancer does not normally run in families, so having one or more relatives with this type of cancer would not increase your risk. However, there are some rare inherited conditions which carry a very high risk of getting kidney and other cancers.

Q. Does the diet affect the risk of kidney cancer?

A. There is no clear evidence to suggest that diet affects the risk of getting kidney cancer.

Q. What are the risk factors for kidney cancer?

A. Like most cancers, kidney cancer becomes more common as you get older. Two-thirds of all kidney cancers occur in people over the age of 60. Kidney cancer is also more common in men: 60% of cases and in men and only 40% in women. Obesity is a major risk factor, involved in one quarter of all cases of kidney cancer. Another major risk is smoking, which increases the risk of getting kidney cancer between two and three times. Smaller increases in risk have also been found for people with kidney diseases and people working in the iron and steel industries.

Q. How common is kidney cancer?

A. There are about 190,000 newcases of kidney cancer each year around the world, which means it accounts for about one in fifty cancers. In the UK and USA it about the tenth most common type of cancer.

Q. Are there different types of kidney cancer?

A. The vast majority of kidney cancers are renal cell cancers. Most of the others are cancers of the renal pelvis. There are several types of renal cell cancers. Most are classed as clear cell or conventional. A smaller number fall into other types, which are called papillary, chromaphobe, collecting duct and unclassified renal cell cancers.

Q. Where are the kidneys?

A. We have two kidneys, which are located either side of the spine, in the small of the back.

Q. What is colon cancer?

A. Colon cancer is the term commonly used to describe colo-rectal (or bowel) cancer. The colon is part of the intestines. These consist of the small intestine (the section between the stomach and the appendix) and the large intestine (from the appendix to the anus). The large intestine is divided into the long colon and a short rectum, just before the anus. Two thirds of these cancers occur in the colon and one third in the rectum, with very few in the small intestine.

Q. Who is at risk of colon cancer?

A. More than 80% of the colon cancer cases are in people over 50. Obesity can increase the risk of cancer of the colon by up to one third. ""High alcohol intake is also known to increase the risk of colon cancer. However, some common drugs, such as aspirin-like painkillers and hormone replacement therapy, are known to reduce the risk of bowel cancer"", says Dr. Hari Krishna,cancer specialist and inventor of Cancer-Healer"

Q. Does the diet affect the risk of colon cancer?

A. The risk of colon cancer appears to be linked to diet, although the evidence for which types of food are involved is not very clear. Low fat, high fibre diets appear to carry a lower risk. Greater consumption of vegetables and fruit has also been shown to reduce the risk. Increased consumption of red meat and processed meat has been linked to a higher risk. By comparison, eating fish does not appear to be a risk factor. Some evidence suggests that certain dietary supplements, such as calcium, selenium and, possibly, folic acid can reduce the risk.

Q. Does colon cancer run in families?

A. There are two inherited conditions which carry a substantially higher risk of colon cancer. In Familial Adenomatous Polyposis, affected family members develop thousands of small benign growths, called polyps, in the large intestine. Before the age of 40, one or more of these polyps will develop into a bowel cancer. In Hereditary Non-Polyposis Colorectal Cancer (also called Lynch Syndrome), patients develop cancer of the bowels and other organs, usually at an early stage. However, these conditions are very rare and only cause one in twenty cases of bowel cancer. Overall, the risk of bowel cancer doubles if you have a close relative (parent, bother or sister) with this cancer.

Q. Can we screen for colon cancer?

A. There are several ways in which we can screen for colon cancer. Checking for blood in the faeces is the simplest method, although there can be other reasons for this. A more accurate, but less pleasant method, is sigmoidoscopy, in which a flexible optical device is used to examine the inside of the rectum and colon. Both these methods of screening are currently being tested out in the UK to determine which is the best and whether such screening should be used for the whole population. Other screening methods are also being developed.

Q. What are the symptoms of colon cancer?

A. There are a variety of known symptoms of colon cancer including abdominal pain, diarrhoea and constipation, blood in the faeces, or even a blockage of the bowel. However, the symptoms vary from case to case and some cases do not cause any symptoms at all, mentions Dr. Tarang Krishna, who has Cancer-Healer medicine to treat such cases.

Q. How is colon cancer diagnosed?

A. Sigmoidoscopy (see above) or (the very similar) colonoscopy are used to visually examine the inside of the colon. Usually, a barium enema is used to take an x-ray of the shape of the inside of the bowel. Other techniques such as CT scanning or ultrasound can also be used to diagnose how advanced the cancer is.

Q. How is colon cancer treated?

A. Surgery is the main method of treatment. The part of the colon containing the tumour is chopped out and usually a colostomy is performed. In a colostomy, the end of the bowel is diverted to the surface of the abdomen, where the faeces are collected in a plastic bag. Sometimes this is a temporary measure and when the part of the colon that had the cancer has recovered, it can be reconnected to the rest of the bowel. However, if the tumour is in the lower rectum, then both the rectum and anus have to be removed and the colostomy will be permanent. Often patients are given radiotherapy or chemotherapy after the operation as this can kill off any remaining cancer cells.Cancer Healer is really effective in Colon Cancer
and brings marked improvement even at the last stages. It treats colon cancer
promptly without any side effects and can also go in conjunction with chemo
therapy as well as radio therapy and even after operations.

Q. What are the side effects of treatment?

A. Surgery, of any sort, causes tiredness and some pain, but these pass. The long-term side effects of a colostomy are described above. The main side effects of chemotherapy can be thinning or loss of hair (which only happens with some drugs and is temporary), tiredness, diarrhoea, nausea, sore mouth and minor infections. These can be nullified by Cancer-Healer. Radiotherapy has some similar side effects (tiredness, diarrhoea and nausea) and some different ones: red and sore skin where the treatment was given and bladder inflammation, causing frequent and uncomfortable urination.



The only treatment with no side effects and maximum results is ""Cancer-Healer"". it can also go along to nullify the side effects of chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
Q. How effective is the treatment?

A. If diagnosed early, before the tumour has spread from the bowel, the Cancer-Healer treatment is very effective, with about 90% of patients alive five years after diagnosis. However, if the cancer is advanced at the time of diagnosis (ie it has spread to the lymph nodes) only about 60% of the patients survive for five years, as per the clinical data reveals Dr. Hari Krishna

Q. How effective are the treatments?

A. 4 out of every 5 women with ovarian cancer can be cured by Cancer Healer. Like all other cancers, the stage at which ovarian cancer is diagnosed determines how easily it is to cure.If diagnosed and treated while the cancer is confined to the ovaries nearly 80% of the women can be cured, mentions Dr. Tarang.

Q. How is ovarian cancer treated?

A. Cancer Healer is really effective in Ovary Cancer and brings marked improvement even at the last stages. It treats ovarian cancer promptly without any side effects and can also go in conjunction with chemo therapy as well as radio therapy and even after operations

Q. How is ovarian cancer diagnosed?

A. If ovarian cancer is suspected, two main tests are used to make the diagnosis. First, an ultrasound scan of the abdomen is performed. Sometimes the scan is taken from inside the vaginA. The second test is to measure the level of the CA125 marker in the blood. Neither of these tests gives a definite diagnosis of ovarian cancer, but if both tests are positive, the patient is usually referred to a surgeon who will operate to see if the ovaries show any signs of cancer.

Q. What are the symptoms of ovarian cancer?

A. There are few clear symptoms of ovarian cancer. Typically it can cause pain in the abdomen, a feeling of being bloated, fatigue, weight loss, or problems with urination. However, these can all be caused by a number of other diseases. This makes it difficult to diagnose ovarian cancer by symptoms alone.

Q. Can we screen for ovarian cancer?

A. There is no reliable method of screening for ovarian cancer. However, both the CA125 blood test and vaginal ultrasound are currently being tested as possible methods for screening women for ovarian cancer.

Q. Does ovarian cancer run in families?

A. There are several genes, which are known to carry increased risks of various cancers, which can run in families. The BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes were originally discovered because they cause an increased risk of breast cancer, but we now know that they also substantially increase the risk of ovarian cancer. The HNPCC gene was discovered because it increases the risk of colon cancer, but women with this gene also have a greater chance of getting ovarian cancer. Overall, if you have one close relative (mother, sister or daughter) who has had ovarian cancer, your risk goes up about 4-fold. If you have two cases amongst close relatives, your risk goes up 10-fold or more.

Q. Does the diet affect the risk of ovarian cancer?

A. There is some evidence that being overweight can increase your risk of ovarian cancer. Some research has suggested that beta-carotene in the diet can reduce the risk of this cancer, although this finding has not yet been confirmed.

Q. What are the risk factors for ovarian cancer?

A. Like most cancers it is more common with increasing age. The other risk factor is if you carry certain genes (see below). Having children reduces the risk: women with three or four children have only half the risk of a childless woman. Infertile women (ie women who cannot conceive despite trying for several years) appear to have an even higher risk than other childless women. Taking the contraceptive pill reduces the risk of ovarian cancer by somewhere between a third and a half, depending on how long it is taken for.

Although the effect of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) on ovarian cancer risk has been studied, the results are unclear. Some studies have found an increased risk, but analysis of all the published research shows conflicting results.

There have been some reports claiming that using talc in the genital area increases the risk of ovarian cancer. However, most of the research conducted on this has not produced reliable findings and there is no good evidence to support these claims.

Q. How dangerous are ovarian cancers?

A. Most of the women died of ovarian cancer, making it a more common cause of death than cervical and uterine cancer combined. The ovarian cancers can prove to be very fatal by ill chosen modes of treatment or if overlooked or neglected. The alarming levels of Ca-125 can also confirm the same.

Q. How common is ovarian cancer?

A. Ovarian Cancers are common with the family history showing the same or even in the women showing histories of major operations or use of contraceptive pills,as per the data which reveals the same

Q. Where are the ovaries?

A. The ovaries are above the womb and connected to it by two short tubes (the Fallopian tubes). This means that they are below and to either side of the navel.

Q. What is the cervix?

A. The cervix is the name for the lowest part of the uterus. The uterus is an organ that only women have, and it is where a baby grows and develops when a woman is pregnant. During pregnancy, the uterus has an enormous increase in size. When a woman is not pregnant, the uterus is a small, pear-shaped organ that sits between a womans rectum and her bladder. The cervix connects the uterus with the birth canal (the vagina). The cervix can both be visualized and sampled by your doctor during a routine pelvic examination in his or her office.

Q. What is cervical cancer?

A. Cervical cancer happens when cells in the cervix begin to grow out of control and can then invade nearby tissues or spread throughout the body. Large collections of this out of control tissue are called tumors. However, some tumors are not really cancer because they cannot spread or threaten someones life. These are called benign tumors. The tumors that can spread throughout the body or invade nearby tissues are considered cancer and are called malignant tumors. Usually, cervix cancer is very slow growing although in certain circumstances it can grow and spread quickly.

Cancers are characterized by the cells that they originally form from. The most common type of cervical cancer is called squamous cell carcinoma; it comes from cells that lie on the surface of the cervix known as squamous cells. Squamous cell cervical cancer compromises about 80% of all cervical cancers. The second most common form is adenocarcinoma; it comes from cells that make up glands in the cervix. The percentage of cervical cancers that are adenocarcinomas has risen since the 1970s, although no one knows exactly why. About 3% to 5% of cervical cancers have characteristics of both squamous and adenocarcinomas and are called adenosquamous carcinomas. There are a few other very rare types like small cell and neuroendocrine carcinoma that are so infrequent they will not be discussed further.

Q. Am I at risk for cervical cancer?

A. Cervical cancer is vastly more common in developing nations than it is in developed nations, particularly the United States. However, cervical cancer is the 2nd most common cause of cancer death in developing nations, Most of this decrease is attributed to the effective institution of cervical cancer screening programs in the wealthier nations. Although there are several known risk factors for getting cervical cancer, no one knows exactly why one woman gets it and another doesnt. One of the most important risk factors for cervical cancer is infection with a virus called HPV (human papillomavirus). HPV is a sexually transmitted disease that is incredibly common in the population; one study showed that 43% of college age women were infected in a 3-year period. HPV is the virus that causes genital warts, but having genital warts doesnt necessarily mean you are going to get cervical cancer. There are different subtypes, or strains, of HPV. Only certain subtypes are likely to cause cervical cancer, and the subtypes that cause warts are unlikely to cause a cancer. Often, infection with HPV causes no symptoms at all, until a woman develops a pre-cancerous lesion of the cervix. It should be stressed that only a very small percentage of women who have HPV will develop cervical cancer; so simply having HPV doesnt mean that you will get sick. However, almost all cervical cancers have evidence of HPV virus in them, so infection is a major risk factor for developing it. Because infection with a sexually transmitted disease is a risk factor for cervical cancer, any risk factors for developing sexually transmitted diseases are also risk factors for developing cervical cancer. Women who have had multiple male sexual partners, began having sexual intercourse at an early age, or have had male sexual partners who are considered high risk (meaning that they have had many sexual partners and/or began having sexual intercourse at an early age) are at a higher risk for developing cervical cancer. Also, contracting any other sexually transmitted diseases (like herpes, gonorrhea, syphilis, or chlamydia) increases a woman risk. HIV infection is another risk factor for cervical cancer, but it may be so for a slightly different reason. It seems that any condition that weakens your immune system also increases your risk for developing cervical cancer. Conditions that weaken your immune system include HIV, having had an organ transplantation, and Hodgkin disease. There also seems to be slightly increased risk of developing cervical cancer if your male sexual partners are uncircumcised. Another important risk factor for developing cervical cancer is smoking. Smokers are at least twice as likely as non-smokers to develop cervix tumors. Smoking may also increase the importance of the other risk factors for cancer. Finally, being in a low socioeconomic group seems to increase your likelihood for developing and dying from cervical cancer. This may be because of increased smoking rates, or perhaps because there are more barriers to getting annual screening exams. Cervical cancer is one of the few cancers that affects young women (in their twenties and even their teens), so no one who is sexually active is really too young to begin screening. Also, the risk for cervical cancer ever decline, so no one is too old to continue screening. Remember that all risk factors are based on probabilities, and even someone without any risk factors can still get cervical cancer. Proper screening and early detection are our best weapons in reducing the mortality associated with this disease, says Dr. tarang Krishna, cancer Physician treating cervical cancers with Cancer Healer

Q. How can I prevent cervical cancer?

A. Right now, the most important thing any woman can do to decrease her risk of dying from cervix cancer is to undergo regular Pap testing. Pap tests will be discussed further in the next section, but the reason that women have had such a drastic drop in cervical cancer cases and deaths in this country has been because of the Pap test and annual screening.

In terms of prevention, the next most important thing to do is to modify the risk factors that you have control over. Dont start smoking, and if you are already a smoker, it is time to quit. Women can limit their numbers of sexual partners, and delay the onset of sexual activity. Unfortunately, condoms do not protect you from developing HPV, so even though they can protect you from other sexually transmitted diseases and HIV, they cannot help lower your risk for developing cervical cancer.

Many people are interested in preventing cervical cancer with vitamins or diets. Studies looking at beta-carotene and folic acid for preventing cervical cancer have shown no benefit. Some people think that anti-oxidants (like vitamin A and vitamin E) may play a role in cervical cancer prevention, but there is currently no convincing data that would suggest so. Further studies need to be performed before any nutritional recommendations can be made regarding cervix cancer prevention.

Finally, there is hope that one day there will be an effective vaccine against HPV. If we were able to stop HPV infection, then rates of cervical cancer should plummet. This is an especially appealing strategy in third-world nations that dont have the resources to implement Pap screening like developed countries. However, an effective vaccine does not currently exist. The future may show this idea bear fruit, but for right now, the most important thing anyone can do to prevent cervical cancer is to get their annual screening exams with Pap tests.

Q. What screening tests are available?

A. Cervical cancer is considered a preventable disease. It usually takes a very long time for pre-cancerous lesions to progress to invasive cancers and we have effective screening methods that can detect pre-cancerous lesions that can generally be cured without serious side effects. Effective screening programs in the United States have led to the drastic decline in the numbers of cervical cancer deaths in the last 50 years. For women who do end up with cervical cancer in developed nations, 60% of them either have never been screened or have not been screened in the last five years. The importance of regular cervical cancer screening cannot be overstated.

Q. What are the signs of cervical cancer?

A. Unfortunately, the early stages of cervical cancer usually do not have any symptoms. This is why it is important to have screening Pap tests. As a tumor grows in size, it can produce a variety of symptoms including:

abnormal bleeding (including bleeding after sexual intercourse, in between periods, heavier/longer lasting menstrual bleeding, or bleeding after menopause)
abnormal vaginal discharge (may be foul smelling)
pelvic or back pain
pain on urination
blood in the stool or urine
Many of these symptoms are non-specific, and could represent a variety of different conditions; however, your doctor needs to see you if you have any of these problems.

Q. How is cervical cancer diagnosed and staged?

A. The most common reason for your doctor to pursue the diagnosis of cervical cancer is if you have an abnormal Pap test. Pap tests exist to find pre-cancerous lesions in your cervix. A pre-cancerous lesion means that there are abnormal appearing cancer cells, but they have not invaded past a tissue barrier in your cervix; thus a pre-cancerous lesion cannot spread or harm you. However, if left untreated, a pre-cancerous lesion can evolve to an invasive cancer. Pap tests are reported as no abnormal cells, abnormal cells of undetermined significance, low risk abnormal cells or high risk abnormal cells. Depending on your specific case, your doctor will decide how to proceed.

Q. What is the Anatomy of the Central Nervous System ?

A. The central nervous system (CNS) is made up by the brain and spinal cord. This complex system controls both things that we intentionally think about and do, like walking and talking, and essential body functions that occur without specific thought on our part, such as breathing and digesting food. The CNS is also involved with the five senses of seeing, hearing, touching, tasting, and smelling, as well as emotions, thoughts, and memory.

The brain is a soft, spongy organ that is made up of nerve cells and tissue. It is divided into three major sections: the cerebrum, the cerebellum, and the brainstem.

The cerebrum is the largest part of the brain, and is divided into two halves, called the right and left hemispheres. The right hemisphere controls the left side of the body and the left hemisphere controls the right side of the body. Each hemisphere is further divided into sections called lobes. There are four lobes in each hemisphere: the frontal, parietal, occipital, and temporal, and each lobe is responsible for certain functions.

* The frontal lobe is responsible for attention, thought, reasoning, behavior, movement, sense of smell, and sexual urges.
* The parietal lobe is responsible for intellect, reasoning, the sensation of touch, response to internal stimuli, some language and reading functions, and some visual functions.
* The occipital lobe is primarily responsible for vision.
* The temporal lobe is responsible for behavior, memory, hearing and visual pathways, and emotions.

The cerebellum is much smaller than the lobes of the brain, and sits at the back of the brain under the cerebrum. It is responsible for balance and coordination and controls complex actions like walking and talking.

The third part of the brain, the brainstem, connects the brain to the spinal cord. It controls some of the most important and necessary body functions, such as breathing and maintaining body temperature and blood pressure. It also controls hunger and thirst.

The spinal cord is made up of bundles of nerve fibers, called vertebrA. It starts at the base of the brain and extends a little more than halfway down the back. Spinal nerves connect the brain with other nerves throughout the body and carry messages back and forth between the brain and the rest of the body.

In order to protect the central nervous system from injury or damage, several protective barriers exist. Three thin membranes, called meninges, cover the entire brain and spinal cord forming a thin protective layer. In addition, a thin, watery fluid, called cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), cushions the brain and spinal cord and offers further protection. CSF is produced in four hollow spaces in the brain, called ventricles, and flows through the ventricles and in the spaces between the meninges. It also brings nutrients from the blood to the brain and removes waste products from the brain. The bony structures of the skull and vertebra provide the final layer of protection for the central nervous system."

Q. What are the types of Brain Tumour ?

A. The causes of central nervous system tumors are not known, and scientists cannot explain why brain tumors develop in healthy adults. Certain factors, however, have been identified that may increase a persons chance of developing a brain tumor. Researchers are also studying families in whom multiple members have developed the same type of brain tumor to see whether heredity plays a role. They are also looking at the connection between viral infections and exposure to radiation and the development of brain tumors. There is no research to suggest that head injuries cause or increase a person risk for developing a brain tumor. Because most patients diagnosed with a brain tumor have no identifiable risk factors, it is believed that brain tumors result from a number of factors acting together.

Tumors which start in the brain are called primary brain tumors and are classified according to the kind of cell from which the tumor seems to originate. The most common primary brain tumor in adults comes from cells in the brain called astrocytes that make up the blood-brain barrier and contribute to the nutrition of the central nervous system. These tumors are called gliomas (astrocytoma, anaplastic astrocytoma, or glioblastoma multiforme) and account for 65% of all primary central nervous system tumors. The following table explains other types of brain tumors, the cells from which the tumors most likely come, and the functions of those cells.

Type of Tumor Cell of Origin Function


Oligodendroglioma Oligodendrocyte Produces a substance called myelin, which covers the nerves and helps information to travel quickly
between the brain and other parts of
the body.

Ependymoma Ependyma Lines the ventricles and aids in the
circulation of cerebrospinal fluid.

Meningioma Meninges Cover and protect the brain and
spinal cord.

Lymphoma Lymphocyte Part of the immune system,
the body primary defense against
infection and foreign substances.

Schwannoma Schwann cell Produce the myelin that protects
the acoustic nerve, the nerve of
hearing.

Medulloblastoma Primitive neuroectodermal cell or Primitive nerve tumors (PNET) These cells normally do
not remain in the body after birth.




Cancer from other parts of the body can spread to the brain and cause
secondary tumors through a process called metastasis. Although it is
possible for cancer from anywhere in the body to spread to the brain,
it happens most often with cancers of the breast and lung. The cells of
a metastatic brain tumor resemble the cells of the organ where the
tumor started, not brain cells. For example, if a tumor starts in the
breast and spreads to the brain, the cells of the brain tumor will
resemble abnormal breast cells, not abnormal brain cells.


Q What are the Signs and Symptoms of Brain Tumors ?

A. The symptoms of both primary and metastatic brain tumors depend mainly on the location in the brain and the size of the tumor. Since each area of the brain is responsible for specific functions, the symptoms will vary a great deal. Tumors in the frontal lobe of the brain may cause weakness and inability to move on one side of the body, known as paralysis, mood disturbances, difficulty thinking, confusion and disorientation, and wide emotional mood swings. Parietal lobe tumors may cause seizures, numbness or paralysis, difficulty with handwriting, inability to perform simple mathematical problems, difficulty with certain movements, and loss of the sense of touch. Tumors in the occipital lobe can cause loss of vision in half of each visual field, visual hallucinations, and seizures. Temporal lobe tumors can cause seizures, perceptual and spatial disturbances, and inability to understand simple of multi-step commands, known as receptive aphasiA. If a tumor occurs in the cerebellum, the person may have difficulty maintaining their balance, known as ataxia, loss of coordination, headaches, and vomiting. Tumors in the hypothalamus may cause emotional changes, and changes in the perception of hot and cold. In addition, hypothalamic tumors may affect growth and nutrition in children. With the exception of the cerebellum, a tumor on one side of the brain causes symptoms and impairment on the opposite side of the body. For example, a tumor on the left side of the brain may cause numbness in the right arm.

As a brain tumor grows, it invades the healthy tissue in the brain, often causing further deterioration. Because of the limited space within the skull, the tumor may place pressure on the brain. There may also be a buildup of fluid around the tumor, a condition known as edemA. Both of these may cause frequent headaches that are often unrelieved by over-the-counter medications. Headaches are the most common presenting symptom for patients with brain tumors.

Since all of these symptoms can be caused by other problems, you must be seen by a physician to have your symptoms properly evaluated. Your physician may refer you to a neurologist, a doctor who specializes in diagnosing and treating disorders of the brain and central nervous system, or to an oncologist, a doctor who specializes in diagnosing and treating cancer."

Q. What is the Pancreas?

A. The pancreas is a pear-shaped gland, about six inches in length, located deep within the abdomen, between the stomach and the spine. It is referred to in three parts: the widest part is called the head, the middle section is the body, and the thin end is called the tail. The pancreas is responsible for making hormones, including insulin, which help regulate blood sugar levels, and enzymes, which are used by the bowel for the digestion of food. These enzymes are transported through ducts within the pancreas, emptied into the common bile duct, which carries the enzymes into the bowel.


Q. What is Pancreatic Cancer?

A. Pancreatic cancer happens when cells in the pancreas begin to grow out of control. These cancer cells then have the ability to spread to nearby lymph nodes and organs (such as the liver and lungs). When cancer spreads, it is called metastatic. About seventy percent of pancreatic cancers occur in the head of the pancreas, and most of these begin in the ducts that carry the enzymes.

Q.How Can I Prevent Pancreatic Cancer?

A. Unfortunately, no one really knows what causes the disease, so it is difficult to prevent. One important point is that the risk for smokers who quit does decrease; so giving up cigarettes is helpful. Be aware of your familys health history. This can make you and your healthcare providers aware of any increased risk.

Q.What are the Signs of Pancreatic Cancer?

A. Unfortunately, the signs of early stage pancreatic cancer are vague, and often attributed to other problems by both patients and physicians. More specific symptoms tend to develop after the tumor has grown to invade other organs or blocked the bile ducts. Symptoms include weight loss, loss of appetite, jaundice (a condition that causes yellowing of the eyes and skin and darkening of urine), pain in the upper abdomen or back, weakness, or nausea and vomiting. These symptoms can vary depending on where the tumor is located in the pancreas (head, body or tail). Newly developed diabetes is the presenting sign in ten to twenty percent of patients. This is caused by the cancerous pancreas inability to produce insulin

Q. How is Pancreatic Cancer Diagnosed and Staged?

A. When a physician suspects that a patient may have pancreatic cancer there are several tests that can be done to make a diagnosis. A high quality CT Scan (called a spiral or helical CT) can detect a tumor in the pancreas, enlarged lymph nodes (which may indicate tumor involvement), tumors in the liver, or obstructions of the bile duct. It is the test most commonly used to diagnose this cancer in the United States. Ultrasound can also be used and is the more commonly used test in other areas of the world. Ultrasound uses a device that emits sound waves, which bounce off the organs, producing echoes that are used to create an image of the organ. This can be done on the outside of the abdomen (called transabdominal ultrasound) or from inside the bowel (a catheter is passed through the mouth down to the bowel), this is called endoscopic ultrasound.

If a patient has jaundice, the doctor may want to do a test to find out where the bile duct is blocked and if this blockage is caused by a tumor or another condition. Tests that can determine this are endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) and percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography (PTC). In ERCP, a tube is passed through the mouth down the throat to the bowel, where a small catheter is inserted into the bile and pancreatic ducts. Dye is injected and x-rays are taken. The x-rays will show where the blockage is and what it is caused by. In PTC, dye is injected through a needle that is inserted through the skin, into the liver. The dye moves into the bile ducts, again allowing the blockage and its cause to be seen with an x-ray. In some cases, a small sample of tissue (biopsy) may be removed during these procedures to be examined by a pathologist.

Some patients with pancreatic cancer may have an elevated level of carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA 19-9), but this is not present in all cases and may be caused by other things. In patients who have an elevated level, it is useful in confirming a diagnosis in conjunction with other tests and for monitoring the disease during treatment. The level can be periodically checked during treatment to see if the cancer is stable or worsening.

Thyroid Cancer

Thyroid Cancer




Q. What is Thyroid cancer?


Ans. The definition of a tumor is a mass of abnormally growing cells. Tumors can be either benign or malignant. Benign tumors have uncontrolled cell growth, but without any invasion into normal tissues and without any spread. A malignant tumor is called cancer when these tumor cells gain the propensity to invade tissues and spread locally as well as to distant parts of the body. In this sense, thyroid cancer occurs when cells of the thyroid gland grow uncontrollably to form tumors that can invade the tissues of the neck, spread to the surrounding lymph nodes, or to the bloodstream and then to other parts of the body. The most common types of cancers of the thyroid gland are derived from the cells responsible for thyroid hormone production. The general term for cancers that come from glandular tissue is adenocarcinoma. In the thyroid, the most common types of cancer are papillary adenocarcinoma of the thyroid (75-80%) and follicular adenocarcinoma of the thyroid (˜15%). Papillary thyroid cancer takes on a folded appearance under the microscope, which eases its diagnosis. Follicular thyroid cancer may closely resemble normal thyroid tissue, but as a malignancy, has a propensity to divide uncontrollably and invade and spread. The next most common type of cancer of the thyroid is called medullary thyroid cancer (5%), which is derived from the parafollicular cells of the thyroid. This is often associated with a familial genetic predisposition to develop certain types of cancers (see below). The other major type of thyroid cancer often described is called anaplastic thyroid cancer (2%). This cancer usually affects older people and is very aggressive. Other types of cancers, such as lymphomas (cancer of the lymph gland cells), sarcomas (cancer of soft tissues such as muscle or cartilage cells), or metastases (cancers from other sites that have spread to the thyroid gland) are also seen in the thyroid gland.






Q. Am I at risk for thyroid cancer?

Ans. Thyroid cancer is fairly common, as it is found at autopsy in approximately 5% of people with no known thyroid disease. However, death due to thyroid cancer is uncommon, explained by the fact that thyroid cancer is usually an indolent disease, tending to remain localized to the thyroid gland for many years. Most cases of thyroid cancer are sporadic; meaning there is no obvious predisposition or risk factor for development. However, it is more common in women, occurring in a 3:1 ratio. This has prompted studies into the investigation of estrogen as a possible risk factor for thyroid cancer, though this has never been proven. Studies have also shown a preponderance of certain types of thyroid cancer in regions with a high incidence of goiters (enlarged thyroid glands), which occur as a result of a lack of dietary iodine. This is further supported by the decrease of thyroid cancers in population given supplemental iodine.

Q. Can I prevent thyroid cancer?

Ans. As most cases of thyroid cancers are sporadic and not associated with any risk factors, there is usually no method to prevent the development of thyroid cancer. Careful examination of the thyroid and consideration of screening for patients at high risk could be considered, though the general prevention of thyroid cancers is impossible.

Q. What are the signs of thyroid cancer?

Ans. By far, the most common presentation of thyroid cancer is a solitary nodule on the thyroid, which can be felt on physical exam. As the thyroid gland is a fairly superficial organ in the neck, a thyroid nodule could be noticed early, at which time medical attention should be sought. By no means is every thyroid nodule a thyroid cancer. In fact, most represent hyperplasia (benign growth of the thyroid) of the thyroid gland.
The thyroid cancer can present as multiple nodules in the thyroid or a large mass in the neck. The large mass can be located either in the region of the thyroid, representing the primary thyroid cancer, or in a separate region of the neck, representing a spread of cancer to the lymph nodes. Thyroid tumors can also at times present as hoarseness or with symptoms of tracheal or esophageal compression, such as shortness of breath, air hunger, problems or pain with swallowing, or neck pain


Q. What are the treatments for thyroid cancer?

Ans. Cancer-Healer is very effective in all types of cancer where the patient recovers well. The treatment itself is sufficient enough to fight with the disease where the medicines boosts the immune system and completes the nutrients of the body. Also, it can go in parallel with chemotherapy or radiation as well.
The medicines brings marked improvement even in last stages and recovers promptly, depending on the immune system of the patient and the possiblities of recovery.
