What is cancer? Part 2

Cancer, like any other kinds of diseases can be treated if detected early and treated with extra care and discipline.

Most cancer patients failed to recognize their serious obligations as the prime doctor for themselves. This commonly resulted to death. Since the patient's body is the abode of the disease it is therefore a health-related matter that requires the patient's prime concern of taking care for him/herself by taking the necessary food supplements to prevent it's spreed, if not totally eliminating it.

In this regards, I consolidated at least seven ways a cancer patient can do to fight the development or spreed of cancer cells, and survive from it.

1. Always have a positive outlook in life. Positive thinking and optimism help the body in fighting negative elements that are contributory to the spreed of diseases. Our body has a natural anti-body called endorphin, and this natural anti-body is best displayed by people with positive outlook in life. Read the story of Rachel Charles...

2. Maintain a low blood sugar and a normal blood pressure. Women with high blood sugar may be more likely to develop cancer, even if they don't have diabetes, a Swedish study shows. Read more...


3. Be a vegetarian. Stop eating commercialized meat and switch to vegetarianism instead. Fruits and vegetables have the natural properties called "anti-oxidants" to cleanse our circulatory system, and are good source of fibers. Berries are amongst the top fruits recommendable that fight the spreed of cancer cells. Read more...

4. Have a regular exercise. Our body has the natural mechanism to release bodily wastes. However, not all bodily wastes can be easily disposed without physical force to excrete them. Regular exercise will help. In fact healthier people are those who spend a little of their time exercising everyday. Read more...


5. Avoid foods with preservatives. Cancer is always associated with preserved foods or those that are artificially maintained fresh, like canned goods or ready-to-eat meals. These foods are carcinogenic; rich in substance (e.g. radionuclide, or radiation) that is an agent directly involved in causing cancer. Read more...

6. Avoid long exposure to radiation-emiting appliances. Stop using microwave oven if you are using them to re-heat your food. Microwave oven is among the household stuff with the highest radiation-emiting capacity. Shorten your television exposure and avoid bodily contact with electronic devices, if possible. Read more...

7. Follow a healthy menu. A well-planned menu is like a medicine in itself, as this popular saying goes, "let thy food be thy medicine." Prepare a varied menu for the week and follow with strict compliance. Read more...

There are more other ways to cure and or prevent the spreed of cancer out there. It is only a matter of strict self-discipline for one to be benefited from them. Always remember that nature provided everything for man to live a happy and healthy life.

What is cancer?

This is a series of articles about cancer. There are different types of cancer and therefore has no specific definition what a cancer is.

All types of cancer are curable if detected at the earliest stage. It can only be fatal if neglected or detected at later stages, i.e. Stage 3 or Stage 4. A cancer is categorized to be on Stage 3 if it is large enough and may have started to spread into sorrounding tissues and there are cancer cells in the lymph nodes in the area. It is on Stage 4 if it's already started to another body organ. This is also called secondary or metastatic cancer. In medical terminology, cancer is known as "malignant neoplasm", a kind of disease in which a group of cells display uncontrolled growth, that once "fully-grown", intrude upon and destroy adjucent cells and tissues.

According to WHO International Agency for Research on Cancer, among the most common types of cancer in women are breast cancer, cervix uteri cancer, colorectum cancer and lung cancer. Breast cancer comprises 22.9% of all non-melanoma cancers in women. In 2008, breast cancer caused 458,503 deaths worldwide (13.7% of cancer deaths in women). Cervix uteri cancer comprised 8.77% or 275,008 deaths; colorectum was 9.45% or 288,654 deaths; and lung cancer was 8.54% or 427,586 deaths. Breast cancer is more than 100 times more common in women than breast cancer in men. Men are 16% more likely to develop cancer and 40% more likely to die from cancer than women, newspapers have reported. The BBC said, “there is no known biological reason for this but it may be because women take better care of themselves.” The Daily Mail reports a cancer expert as saying there is a divide because “the NHS prefers saving women”.

Some Factors to Consider in Breast Cancer:

Being overweight or obese. Being overweight or obese is linked to a higher risk of breast cancer, especially for women after change of life or if the weight gain took place during adulthood. The risk seems to be higher if the extra fat is around the waist.

Lack of exercise. Studies show that exercise reduces breast cancer risk. The only question is how much exercise is needed. One study found that as little as 1 hour and 15 minutes to 2½ hours of brisk walking per week reduced the risk by 18%. Walking 10 hours a week reduced the risk a little more. The American Cancer Society suggests that you exercise for 45 to 60 minutes 5 or more days a week.

Not breast-feeding. Some studies have shown that breast-feeding slightly lowers breast cancer risk, especially if the breast-feeding lasts 1½ to 2 years. This could be because breast-feeding lowers a woman's total number of menstrual periods, as does pregnancy. But this has been a hard area to study. In countries such as the United States, breast-feeding for this long is uncommon.

Most common in women. Breast cancer occurs in women in many reasons but the most common cause is related to child bearing. Women who have had not had children, or who had their first child after age 30, have a slightly higher risk of breast cancer.Being pregnant many times and at an early age reduces breast cancer risk. Being pregnant lowers a woman's total number of lifetime menstrual cycles, which may be the reason for this effect.

There is money on Facebook

It's true! There is money on Facebook. Just read carefully this and follow the links as you go on. Did you know that by simply spending few hours in the internet you can earn revenues for that matter? Yes! Instead of all-outs of your money everytime you sitdown infront of your computer doing Yahoo! mails, Facebook, Twitter or Google you can now reverse the process and regain your expenses instead. But how?

Click ads. Most companies spend millions of dollars in advertising their products just to get your attention and buy them. Now, buy clicking their ads you are sharing your time viewing them and they will pay you for that matter. There are lots of sites doing this and its only a matter of when will you click on them.

Refer. There are lots of companies out there looking for web sites where they can post their products for advertisements. Some websites offer web ad spaces for free while others offer domain names for as little as $3.75 a month. Find a company that's in need of a website and refer them to domain providers and receive your commission.

Find a Project. Make money working from home by finding projects matching your skills. Just be patient and you will find many in the net.

Write. A growing number of sites will pay for your articles or blog posts. For example, Helium.com will pay for your performance based on page views for just about anything you want to write about.

Sell. I knew a site where you can help sellers sell their products or where buyers can buy anything they need in just few clicks. You can also join their affilliate network program and they will pay you once your transaction is successful.

Survey. Most companies are planning their product and service launches for next year and they conduct periodic research. There are lots of amazing surveys running. You should take advantage of them.

Have you heard about ERS?

You might be thinking of other meanings of the acronym but what I am referring to here is the ERS (Employment Resource Services) of the Latter-Day Saints Church or commonly known as the "Mormon Church".


Yes! The LDS ERS, like the MESO, CESO and PESO, is also assessing and assisting "would-be employees" in determining their job skills, how to apply, where to apply and when to apply for particular job or jobs, and they conduct seminar workshops for that matter. Like any other public employment service offices, the LDS ERS personnel are so accommodating that they see to it until their clienteles really landed for the jobs they needed.


And there is one thing you should know about them, the ERS is not an exclusive employment resource center only for the exclusive members of the Mormon Church but for all regardless of creed or religion. And the good thing is they are giving special treatment to everyone.


If you want to know more about and avail of their services you can approach any church member in your area and inquire from them. There is nothing to be ashamed of if you really need a job, and they will definitely not require you to join them in their congregation.
