Publisher's Synopsis
In the past decades, death rate of cancer patients who received Chemotherapy was extremely high. Although patients spend a lot of money for Surgeries, Radioation therapies and Chemotherapies. A lot of patients still did not survive more than 5 years after they received the treatments. However, the number of patients who survived more than 5 years or even completely cured are rising in the last few years, because more and more patients are choosing alternative cancer treatments. (Also known as Complementary and Alternative Medicine, CAM) Some ingredients in health food can trigger an effect called "Apoptosis." These ingredients not only trigger "Apoptosis" that can kill off cancer cells, but also enhance human immune system at the same time. On the other hand, most of the cancer patients who received conventional medicine were not cured. Many researches have offered theories as to what is the underlying cause of cancers. Unfortunately, none of them were able to explain the diverse aspects of cancer and the development of the disease within the human body. In response to this medical conundrum, Dr. Peter Kovacic wrote a comprehensive review in Current Medical Chemistry 2001. He stated, "Of the numerous theories that have been advanced, oxidative stress is the most comprehensive, and it has stood the test of time. It can rationalize and correlate most aspects associated with carcinogenonesis (development of cancer)." Dr. Kovacic's research supports a growing medical theory that: the presence of excessive free radicals near the nucleus of a cell will result in significant damage to the DNA. The DNA of the nucleus is especially vulnerable when a cell is dividing, during which time the DNA strand is literally unwounded and stretched out. Researchers are now able to confirm not only that free radicals can damage the DNA nucleus of a cell, but also thestrands of DNA as well. Telomerase can compensate for telomere shorting and helps to prevent cellular senescence in eukaryotic cell. In humans, only specific germline cells and the vast majority of cancer cells have sufficient activity for indefinite proliferation. This book will reveal the unknown truth about cancer, also provide a new therapy for cancer treatment at the same. "Apoptosis" is the new dawn for cancer patients. Hopefully, more patients will benefit from this alternative treatment in the near future.
