Cancer Research - What Is Being Done? By Expert Author: Emily Nolt
View Summary \| Submitted: 2008-04-16 \| Word Count: 493 words \| Views: 23 view(s)

The intransigent, self serving, close mindedness of some members of organized medicine is being shattered by sharp truths fired by scientists from all over the country.

It is becoming embarrassingly clear to the big "Cancer Research" organizations, that no matter how many guinea pig volunteers at U.S. penitentiaries they inoculate with liver cancer cells, the subjects do not get cancer. No matter how much time is wasted repeating this experiment and how much public money is spent in a benighted effort to square a circle, the lustre of the words, "There is no cancer in normal metabolism," grows brighter.

This viewpoint is no longer as controversial as it once was. Today, a doctor from the Mayo Clinic and Mayo Foundation can tell the board of trustees of the Allergy Foundation that allergy is believed to be closely related to the natural process of immunity, which include the body's production of antibodies to combat invasion by germs, and that evidence of many kinds has shown that factors in the body's resistance are associated closely with the inception and subsequent course of human cancer. Theorists have suggested that cancer cells may develop from time to time in the normal body, but that most of these are sufficiently abnormal to be attacked successfully by the body's natural defenses.

Today, it is becoming increasingly difficult to deny the role of the liver in cancer, especially since the discovery of the TIP - Tumor Inhibitory Principle - which is manufactured by this organ. The normal liver produces a chemical factor that powerfully inhibits growth of experimental cancer in mice. The factor is imparted both to the blood serum and to the bile and has not been found in cancer patients. The evidence suggests the hypothesis that deficiency, either hereditary or aquired, of such inhibitory factors might be fundamental to the cause of cancer.

Today, it is becoming increasingly difficult to ridicule the role of nutrition in cancer, especially since a recognized investigator discovered that a radical change in the diet of trout from scraps of meat to pieces of bread ruined their livers and caused a plague of cancer among them. It is also becoming increasingly difficult to deny the connection between cancer and "civilized" eating, when so many previously cancer-free societies, including the Eskimos, are seeing their first cases of cancer among their people when the white men come, bringing with them the "benefits" of civilization.

However, it is still not difficult to deny that any important inroads have been made in the fight against cancer. A 1957 survey by the Society of Actuaries of more than 100,000 group surgical insurance claims disclosed that one out of every seven operations was for cancer. The figure for the 1947 study - same number of claims - revealed that cancer surgery was responsible for only one out of every fourteen. The Health Insurance Institute, which made this report, represents the Health Insurance Association of America, which has more than 250 insurance companies as members.

Brain cancer is a disease of the brain where cancer cells (malignant) grow in the brain tissue. Cancer cells grow to form a mass of cancer tissue (tumor) that interferes with brain tissue functions such as muscle control, sensation, memory, and other normal body functions. Tumors composed of cancer cells are called malignant tumors, and those composed of noncancerous cells are called benign tumors. Cancer cells that develop from brain tissue are called primary brain tumors. Statistics suggest that brain cancer is not rare and is likely to develop in about 20,000 people per year.
