Fitness and the Cancer Survivor

Article by David Haas (Mesothelioma Cancer Alliance Guest Blogger)


The University of Waterloo states that while the negative side effects of cancer treatment include muscle weakness, fatigue, weight fluctuations and lowered aerobic capacity, exercise can help reduce the severity of these symptoms. If you are recovering from mesothelioma or any other cancer, exercise may be the last thing on your mind, but the experts seem to agree that it helps. Aside from the physical benefits, exercise helps a cancer survivor feel in control of his or her life, something that is essential if you are going through a process that seems to take control away at every step.

When you are considering an exercise regimen, take some time and consult with your doctor. This ensures that you do not overtax yourself, especially at the beginning. When you start an exercise program, it can be easy to go overboard, especially if you have realized that the exercise improves your situation. Instead, take the time to talk with your doctor and to agree on an exercise plan that suits your needs.

If you have never entered into a fitness plan before, there is no time like the present to start. A fitness program gives you structure for your day while allowing you work solely on improving yourself. Even a small amount of exercise that raises your heart rate allows you to improve, especially if you do it every day.

Choose an exercise program that suits you. If weight machines bore you, take a walk, and if you need a little more structure, consider taking a class. A gentle martial art or a slow dance or movement class can help you feel more connected with your body while mitigating some of the symptoms that you might be experiencing. There are also fitness classes that are designed for cancer survivors; they often require a commitment of several months as well as your doctor’s approval, but they are geared towards the unique challenges faced by cancer survivors.

Remember that making a commitment to a fitness plan is not easy. There are going to be days when you need to skip your exercises or when you are simply unable to commit the energy to exercise. The important thing to remember is that the effect is cumulative, and that just because you don’t get on the treadmill today doesn’t mean you won’t tomorrow.

While fitness and exercise aren’t a cure for cancer, they can help relieve some of the symptoms while giving you back the essential feeling of control.

3 Simple Steps Towards Breast Cancer Prevention

Article by Connie Limon

Three main lifestyle habits lay the foundation for breast cancer prevention. They include:

*Staying physically active

*Limiting alcohol

*Eating right

The evidence so far tells us healthy eating and regular exercise really does contribute to breast cancer prevention. Plus, if you limit your exposure to substances that promote breast cancer, you will benefit even more.

There are some risks toward a higher incident of breast cancer that you cannot control. Those include:
*Your age
*Genetic make-up


Although these two factors may loom against you there are still steps you can take on your own to prevent breast cancer. They provide no guarantee that you still will not develop the disease. They will give you a start toward breast cancer prevention.


Some of the easiest things you can control is what you eat and drink and how much exercise you get.


There remains a strong link between alcohol consumption and breast cancer. Seems that it does not matter the type of alcohol one consumes, whether it be wine, beer or mixed drinks, there does not seem to be a difference according to researchers. A step toward breast cancer prevention would be to limit your alcohol to less than one drink per day or to avoid alcohol completely.

Why does #BreastCancer spread?

Image : Cancer Cell

Article by Alex White

Breast cancer can spread to any part of your body through the blood and lymphatic system.  The metastasis of breast cancer cells is what makes the disease very dangerous.  Metastasis means the cancer cells have traveled from the place of origin, i.e. the breast, to other parts of the body.

When the cancer cells travel from the breast to the underarm lymph nodes, it is still considered to be early stages of breast cancer and it has a high potential to be completely cured.  With surgery and treatment there is a very high chance that all the disease can be completely eradicated from the body.

When the cancer cells travel beyond the lymph nodes to other distant parts of the body, the patient is said to have distant metastasis.  The bones, lungs and liver are the most commonly affected places in the body that breast cancer cells spread to.  Though treatment is available for breast cancer and for metastatic breast cancer, once the cancer has traveled beyond the breast and underarm lymph nodules, it can no longer be totally cured.

#BreastCancer – In denial after finding a lump in the breast

Article by Kacy Carr

Why is it that when the topic of breast cancer crops up in conversation some women tend to shy away in belief that they personally are exempt from contacting the disease? Listen up ladies breast cancer is serious and can affect any one of us at any time. It is in every woman’s best interest to do regular self breast examinations. Many cancers are curable and the odds get better for survival if the cancer is caught in the early stage.

Ignorance is a deadly concoction for those in denial after finding a lump in their breast or any other type of health abnormality. If you choose to ignore the warning signs on health matters as such then you may be living under threat of a death sentence. Early detection of breast cancer with the aid of modern medicine will definitely give a woman hope in curing the breast cancer if diagnosis was sanctioned.

Breast awareness should be practiced by every female regardless of age. What is meant by awareness is where you are encouraged to get intimate with your self i.e. looking for abnormalities in the breast. Women need to know what is normal and what is abnormal.

Breast Reconstruction Decision

Article by Annabel Cruz

With today’s advanced surgical procedures, most women who undergo surgery for breast cancer are candidates for breast reconstruction. There are various types of reconstruction, and they are available to women who have had a mastectomy, partial mastectomy, or lumpectomy.

The decision of whether to have breast reconstruction arises at a very emotional time usually at the same time a woman learns she has breast cancer and needs surgery. It is a time when many questions come up about reconstruction, the most common of which are answered here briefly:

Is age a factor? As long as a woman is in good general health and chooses a procedure that is compatible with her physical condition, age is usually not a factor. Breast reconstruction is frequently done for women in their 70s.

Who should not have breast reconstruction? Women who are in poor general health, who have psychological problems that would be exacerbated by the surgery, or who have severe diabetes, Alzheimer’s disease, a recent stroke nine-art attack, or severe lung disease usually should not have breast reconstruction.

Do I have to make a decision about having reconstruction before I have the mastectomy? No, but the best time to think about breast reconstruction and to consult with a reconstruction surgeon is before you have your mastectomy. Depending on the type of mastectomy you have, you may be able to undergo immediate reconstruction while you’re still on the operating table. There are advantages and disadvantages to having immediate reconstruction (see below). Not all mastectomies lend themselves to this approach, however, which means it is important for you to understand all your options prior to mastectomy. Then if you choose to delay reconstruction, you at least were given the opportunity to make an informed decision.

Marie’s #BreastCancer story – a Call to Action

In the photo: The young Doctor Anthony P. Cannella with his mother, Marie

            The year was 1986, and my family was going through a very difficult and stressful time.  During this period, my mother, who was the rock of our family, withheld the fact that she was losing weight and had a growth in her right breast.  It was not until my father found out and forced her to go to the doctor.  She ended up being diagnosed with Stage III breast cancer with metastasis to adjacent lymph nodes.

My family was devastated; she was only thirty-eight years young.  The physicians were very discouraged with her diagnosis, and gave her only six months to live; interestingly she had no family history of breast cancer.  However she was a strong woman and endured a right radical mastectomy, nitrogen mustard chemotherapy and whole body radiation therapy.  To watch such a dynamic and lively individual be brutalized by this course of therapy was beyond description with the usual vernacular.  However, she fought on, and finally she went into remission one year later.

            During the next four years the oncologists would find another set of lymph nodes positive and she would have to go through the process again.  It was during this time that she also developed Celiac disease; a gastrointestinal disease where eating wheat protein or gluten causes a horrible mal-absorption process and she lost twenty kilograms.  Finally, right before my fourteenth birthday she was diagnosed with stage IV breast cancer with metastasis to her lungs, liver and bones.  After a two-week battle in the ICU, my mother succumbed to this ferocious illness. The bedrock of my family was gone, and she died at only forty-three years old.

            In the years that followed, my father and I struggled through life without my mother.  Things were terribly difficult and I had to grow up fast; learning how to become self-reliant by cooking, cleaning on my own and trying to take care of my father at the same time.  Fortunately, I have a huge extended family, which helped my father and myself survive during this time.  Later, when choosing a career, I remembered how my mother suffered, and how much we as a family suffered with her illness.  This was the overwhelming reason that I choose medicine as a career; not to stop the pain of my mother’s death, but to try and make life more tolerable for those are inflicted with such an illness.

            Even to this day, the loss of my mother is horribly painful for me.  I wonder what she would think about my life and the type of man, which I have become, and her impression with the decisions I have made.  I would hope to think that she would be satisfied with all of those things and would want me to be an even greater advocate for a cure of what took her life.  This would have to include encouraging my patients and even through social media of the importance of self-breast exams.

Knowing your own body well enough to know when something is wrong is the key to the early identification of this disease.  Even more important is being aware of a history of breast cancer in one’s family and doing something about it early in life.  I implore all women over thirty to do self-breast exams monthly, and have a talk with their physician if they do not know how.  I would hope that by telling you my experience, might possibly save your life and even more so your legacy.

Ostracized Treatments of #BreastCancer – Curing Cancer with Cannabis!

Controversial Treatments of Breast Cancer – Cannabis – Realistic, Proven & Effective Cancer Cure

Our bodies are made up of trillions of cells. Cells are continuously dividing and replicating themselves and as new cells develop, old ones die. Cancer cells are different, they don’t die a natural death, but continue to divide and grow.

Researchers are constantly seeking to find a way to selectively kill cancer cells without killing healthy cells. Nature has provided us with a substance that can accomplish what laboratory scientists cannot. That substance is THC, the active ingredient in cannabis sativa – marijuana.

THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) is the most active of the chemicals known as cannabinoids that are present in all of the plants of the genus cannabis and in greatest abundance in the species cannabis sativa.

Researchers at Complutense University School of Biology in Madrid, Spain undertook studies on mice in order to determine how THC accomplished the task of killing cancer cells without also damaging other cells in the body.

They discovered that it does so by two means:

1) It acts to inhibit angiogenesis or the formation of new blood cells in tumors. Solid tumors, such as cancers, require a blood supply in order to grow. When the blood supply is cut off through the anti-angiogenesis effects triggered by THC, the cancer cells die.

2) THC promotes cancer cell death by a process called autophagy. Autophagy literally means “self eat” and that, along with other processes, is essentially what happens. Instead of dividing and replicating, the cancer cells undergo a process of virtual self-digestion and recycling into harmless waste matter.

Because of the ongoing prohibition of cannabis research, very little clinical research has been conducted on human volunteers, but what research has been done has shown promise.

#BreastCancer Symptoms – How to Detect Before it is Too Late

Article by Bertil Hjert

Breast cancer is a serious disorder that attacks women. It is a disease that women dread about. In medical terms, this disease can be defined as a formation of malignant or cancer cells in the breast tissues.

The disease has been termed as heterogeneous. This means that it is a different disease that appears and forms differently in different women of different age groups. Younger women are said to be more vulnerable to this disease.

This disease can be cured if detected early. This is the reason that young women are advised to carry out a self-examination for any kind of lungs inside their breast every three to six months. They should also go for a medical examination in every six months.

When failed to detect, this disease can result in to some real threatening stages. In certain severe and final stages of breast cancer, women are advised to go for a breast removal surgery or masectomy. This is really dreadful moment in a woman life.

Fortunately, this disease can be treated successfully if detected early. Hence, it is very important to learn about the symptoms of breast cancer and keep tabs on any of the warning signs that may hit our body anytime.

10 Myths and Misconceptions about #BreastCancer

Article by Tom Schavo

Myths about any disease generally mislead people, resulting in making the disease very serious. Breast Cancer is no exception. For several centuries now, people have come up with self theories and endless imaginative myths that still exist within our societies. These Myths could turn out to be fatal for a woman.

We present to you 10 greatest myths about Breast Cancer:

Only Old women get Breast Cancer

The statement should rather be “The chances of getting breast cancer are higher in Older women”. However, one has to remember that this cancer can strike at any age. According to the world survey, the chances of getting Breast Cancer at the age ranging between 1 to 39 is 0.5%, at the age between 40 to 59 is 4%, from age 60 to 79 it is 7% while if you end up living for 90 years or above, then chances are 14.3%.

The chances of getting disease is more if you have Risk factor

Wrong. Even the strongest risk factor owner may just go Scott free while a woman who has no risk factor might end up getting this cancer. On the contrary, more cases are reported related to women who had absolutely no risk factor.

If family doesn’t have, you won’t have it

Wrong again. Surprisingly, Women with no family history of this disease, end up having it and the form the major chunk of the entire lot. Guess how much? Well its 80% women. So this is the most ridiculous myth.

Family history of Breast Cancer of Maternal has more risk

Another myth having no logical explanation. The risk is equal, irrespective for whether breast cancer history existed towards maternal side or paternal side. This is mainly because you get genes equally from both Mother and Father.

Breast cancer is caused by excessive use of Antiperspirants

There is absolutely no evidence of such claim. No Antiperspirants has been proved to be the cause of Breast Cancer. This is a grave misunderstanding caused due to lack of knowledge.

Morning pills or Birth control pills cause this cancer

No. The recent or latest Birth control pills contain very small dose of hormones estrogen and progesterone which rules out the possibility of any such risk. Research shows no relation between Birth pills and increased risk of Breast Cancer. Instead these pills have benefits as well, like reduce the ovarian cancer, removes menstrual disorders, or any pelvic inflammatory disease, improves bone density etc.

Fatty foods causes Breast cancer

Wrong. There is no authentic research or study that shows a connection between eating high fat foods and increased risk of breast cancer because of that. However, avoiding fatty food is good for overall health and is always better.

Self examination on a Monthly basis is best way to diagnose this cancer

Though partly correct, but that is not all. The most reliable way to detect breast cancer is the digital mammography or High quality film-screen mammography which would detect the early most cancer stage. Self examine is essential, but it may not necessarily detect the Cancer. 40% of all Breast cancer cases are found by self examination. So, this practice is a healthy one.

There is no cure for Breast Cancer

Although cannot be eradicated completely, there are many ways to reduce the risk of breast cancer in women who are at high risk. Changing the lifestyle like reducing the consumption of alcohol, No smoking, exercise regularly can reduce the chances of breast cancer to a large extent.

If Breast Cancer is detected, you are dead

Wrong. 80% of women who have been diagnosed of Breast Cancer have seen no signs of it spreading to other parts. A woman can live very long even after she suffers from Breast Cancer. Also, the latest breakthroughs in this field has many hopes already in store.

 

However, IT IS ALWAYS BETTER TO PREVENT THAN TO CURE IT. And what’s your job? ... Let others know about this dreadful cancer by sharing this article with them!

Diet and Breast Cancer, Myths and Uncertainties

Article by Aditi Miscall

No area of oncology is more complex and controversial than the relationship of cancer and diet. Everyone would like to believe that there is some diet which can substantially affect the likelihood of cancer, or better still to cure it once contracted. But to date, the evidence of the effect of diet is unclear and often inconsistent.

All reputable sources agree that no diet outright cures cancer. Nor is there strong evidence to support the view that any particular diet prevents contracting it. But there are many studies that suggest that occurrence, recurrence and survivability may be affected by the foods we choose.

Though far from certain, many studies examined by researchers at Cornell University were able to correlate lower death rates – an increased five or ten year survivability, with certain dietary choices.

In one study examined (the Nurses Health Study), 1,982 women who had already developed breast cancer were followed for an average of 13 years. Over 1,200 had cancers that had not metastasized (spreading of a primary tumor to other areas producing secondary tumors of the same type). Survival rates of cancer patients whose disease has spread are known to be much lower (21% five-year survival, as contrasted to 86% for those whose cancer has not metastasized).

Types Of Breast Cancer

Article by Connie Limon

Women seem to fear breast cancer more than any other life threatening disease. Research shows women are more likely to die from cardiovascular disease than from all forms of cancer combined. Breast cancer is rare in men, although it does occur.

If you are one that fears breast cancer, there is more reason for optimism today than ever before. Doctors have made great progress in diagnosing and treating breast cancer in the last 30 years.

Radical mastectomy is rarely performed today. There are more and better treatment options. This article addresses the different types of breast cancer.

Breast cancer type is determined from a tissue sample (biopsy) sent to the lab for analysis. The treatment for breast cancer depends upon what type it is.

The breast’s milk ducts is where the most common types of breast cancer originate. The actual point in origin is determined by the microscopic appearance of the cancer cells from a biopsy.

#BreastCancer – Be Aware and Beware

Article by Cancer Hospital India

With rapid industrialization and urbanization, the incidence of breast cancer is rising fast among Indian women. Proper awareness and proper treatment under proper guidance can help millions to reduce the brunt of this menace. Breast Cancer is the commonest cancer among urban women in India. As per National Cancer Registry, over 1 lakh women are diagnosed with breast cancer every year. 60% of these diagnoses present at an advanced stage with less than 15% chance of survival. If these women have been diagnosed early, their survival chances can be more than 90%.

Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) places incidence of the disease at 30 to 33 per 100,000 women in urban India. The number of new breast cancer cases in India is about 100,000 women each year and ICMR predicts there will be approximately 250,000 new cases of cancer in India by 2015. It is reported that one in 22 women in India is likely to suffer from breast cancer during her lifetime, while the figure is definitely more in America with one in eight being a victim of this deadly cancer.

The cure rate of this cancer if detected early is 97 percent but, unfortunately, less than 10 percent of all the 100,000 new breast cancers diagnosed in India every year fall into this category. In India, this cancer presents a decade earlier affecting younger women between 30 and 40 years. Unlike in the West where typically women after 50 years get early stage disease, Indian women occurs at a younger age and is usually presented and diagnosed at a later stage due to low awareness on breast screening and self- examination.

Risk factors:

There is no known single specific cause for the illness. Urbanization has bought its own share of grief with pollution in water, air, food etc. Pesticides in vegetables and other food items are known carcinogens which are creating havoc. In a W.H.O report it was stated the Indians consume pesticides 40 times higher than permissible levels in their food.Causes like heredity, genetic mutations, environmental toxins, certain physical and chemical hazards, consumption of genetically modified food products, life style factors like stress, smoking, alcohol, eating junk food, obesity and lack of exercise are attributed to this cancer.

Symptoms:

The main symptoms which one should look out for are a lump in the breast or armpit, discharge from the nipples, nipple or skin retraction, thickening, ulceration and redness of skin

Effects And Benefits Of Alternative Cancer Treatments For Breast Cancer

Article by Mark Branyon

There is no doubt that breast cancer is a frightening diagnosis for any woman or man. From the moment those two words are uttered, feelings of uncertainty and fear begin to mount. Uncertainty about the future and whether there’s a way to better the chances of survival collide with feelings of life without one or both breasts. Concern about surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy treatment, as well as whether or not survival is possible at all, is what usually swirls through the mind of any person moments after hearing those two dreaded words.

But there is a silver lining around this dark cloud of bad news. The good news is that tremendous advances in cancer detection and traditional as well as alternative cancer treatments have taken place over the past few decades. As a result, the prognosis for surviving breast cancer, and even avoiding radical surgery, has never been better.

Following the advice and course of treatment recommended by your doctor is of utmost importance. But interestingly, many men and women diagnosed with breast cancer report that their symptoms have been improved, and in some cases reversed, by pursuing one of the many medically-approved alternative breast cancer treatments available today.

Of course, no “one-size-fits-all” alternative cancer treatment exists so finding the right one requires the advice of a physician who is trained in alternative cancer therapies. These physicians take a holistic approach to treating breast cancer. Simply stated, they’ll decide on one or more alternative breast cancer treatments depending on the specific type of breast cancer and the stage of the disease.

Discover the link between Green Lipped Mussel and Cancer Treatment

Article by Nicos Stylianou

It’s almost unbelievable, but is it true? Does the green lipped mussel cancer treatment really work? Is there really a link between green lipped mussels and cancer?

Well, this type of shellfish is found in the oceans of the coast of New Zealand. Its uniqueness lies in the fact that it is large mussel species, sometimes measuring nearly a foot across in diameter, and also in the fact that while the shell of the mussel is brown in color, the edge, or its lip has an interesting and rather beautiful green tinge.

The link between green mussel and good health was first observed when researchers noticed that the Maori people of New Zealand had very little problems with arthritis, or joint pains and injuries, and these Maori people subsisted on a diet of this type of mussels.

Therefore researchers arrived at the obvious conclusion that the arthritis or the lack thereof among the Maori people was a direct result of the fact that mussels are such a big part of their diet.

Over the years, an increasing number of studies has shed more light on a number of links between green lipped mussels on the one hand and the prevention and cure of various ailments on the other.

Vitamin ABCs: Pomegranates Aren’t Just for Stained Fingers Anymore

Article by Gloria MacTaggart.


Do you remember eating pomegranates as a kid? It was quite an adventure, and it could last for hours — dissecting it bit by bit to get at each one of those crunchy little morsels; stains on our fingers that seemed to last for days. I doubt many of us realized back then that this tasty fruit actually had nutritional value. It was just fun! So how did it become the raw material for healthful drinks and supplements in natural food stores across the U.S.? Once again, Western scientists have stumbled upon an ancient Eastern secret. Find out what the pomegranate can do for you.


Originating in Persia, cultivation of the pomegranate began its slow migration to the West. While the U.S.A. was still a colony — Thomas Jefferson planted pomegranates in Monticello in 1771 — it found its way to the new world. In the East, this delicious fruit is a symbol of life, fertility and regeneration, and the symbolism was not lost on the West. In fact, the British Medical Association, the Royal College of Physicians, the Royal College of Midwives and the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists all feature the pomegranate in their coat of arms.

Does Green Tea Offer The Prescription For Beating Cancer?

Article by Marcus Stout


With early detection, cancer is no longer an automatic death sentence. However, an initial diagnosis still brings with it a host of questions: What is the best course of treatment? Are conventional approaches best? Or are non-traditional therapies preferable–particularly if the cancer does not seem to respond to chemotherapy and radiation.


In recent years, a great deal of emphasis has been placed on unconventional therapies for cancer. For instance, in an article in the Canadian Medical Association Journal, Elizabeth Kaegi of the Task Force on Alternative Therapies of the Canadian Breast Cancer Research Initiative discussed the fact that cancer patients are trying a number of intriguing therapies, including Essiac, Iscador, hydrazine sulfate, vitamins A,C, and E, and 714-X. But perhaps one of the most popular therapies that has been tried is green tea. In fact, go to your local convenience store and you may find jug after jug of green tea in assorted flavors. Still, you may be wondering what makes green tea so special–and if it really can help to combat cancer.


Green Tea–The Basics:


Green tea is produced by steaming or frying the leaves of the shrub known as Camellia sinensis. The leaves, which are not fermented, are then dried. For 5,000 years, families in China and Japan have hailed green tea as a valuable stimulant and an effective remedy for stomach ailments. You can even purchase green tea in capsule form now, although the actual medicinal benefits from such capsules have yet to be established.

Is Spiritual Healing For Real?

Article by Stephen Lau


Spiritual healing is rejuvenation of the body and mind through the intelligent or immaterial part of a human being – spirituality. Many people think of healing only in terms of the physical. A broken bone is only a “physical” illness that requires six to twelve seeks for healing the fractured bone. But human illness may often involve more than just the physical level: it may involve the emotions, the mind, and even the soul.


Accordingly, spiritual healing may play a role in the recovery. Indeed, spiritual healing has more to do with the mind or the soul than just the physical body. Spiritual healing is recovery from a disease or disorder of a more complex nature.


All illness and even death result from cumulative stress of the physical, emotional, and mental aspects of an individual. Cumulative stress fosters negative emotions and behavior with devastating and long-lasting effects on the overall health and wellness of an individual.


Fortunately, spirituality may help an individual overcome this negativity, and thereby instrumental in relieving the symptoms of an illness. For example, a patient suffering from cancer, which is a traumatic experience, may find solace through spirituality during the cancer treatment, such as chemotherapy or surgery.

Cancer is now the leading cause of death globally. It is estimated that cancer will kill 84 million people in the next ten years. While the causes of cancer are complex, it is well known that that certain things can lower the risk of getting it. The most important recommendations are to avoid toxins and eat healthy foods. Nature foods has many nutrients that are known to help protect against cancer.

Studies have shown that Sterol/Sterolins and Omega 3, 6 and 9 can increase natural killers (NK) cell activity and act as a potent immunomudulator for the treatment and restoration of immune dysfunction.

Gamma Oryzanol (Ferulic acid) is know to be anti-mutagenic. Inositol, IP6, Polyphenol, Fiber, Tocotrienols and Antioxidants are all known to be anti-carcinogenic. Polyphenols and Tocotrienols have been shown to inhibit Phase 1 microsomal enzymes, and the lipoprotein fraction of nature foods has been shown to inhibit abnormal cell prolifeation.
