More men and women die from lung cancer than any other cancers. Who is most susceptible to this disease? Nearly 70 percent of the elderly 65 and older will be diagnosed with this disease. Three percent of lung cancer cases have appeared in people younger than 45 years old.

Until the 1930s, cancer of the lungs was not as prevalent but still quite common. However, once there was an increase of tobacco smoking use, lung cancer cases rose drastically. As information and education...

A report published in the January 15, 2007 issue of the journalCancer Researchconcluded that a diet enhanced with tomato and broccoli powder was better than one containing either nutrient alone at shrinking prostate tumors in rats.

Food science and human nutrition professor John Erdman and colleagues at the University of Illinois and Ohio State University conducted the current research on rats with implanted prostate cancer tumors. The animals were divided to receive...

the prostate cancer symptoms is usually only showing in the pathological examination.there are top 9 prostate cancer symptoms as belows:

1.bladder outlet obstruction symptoms
It's almost the same with benign prostatic hyperplasia,with frequent urination, each little urine, urinary frequency increased, in particular, nocturia increased significantly.Resulting in frequent urination during the day.then the urine flow occurs slowly, slow urination urgency, urinary flow...

Another very serious subject and not to be dealt with glibly, so I will not be making bold claims about a cure all.

It seems that cancerous cells are present in all of us but when our immune system fails to kill these cells they multiply rapidly.

Our immune systems needs a good diet to be able to function correctly and it is for this reason why scientists recommend 5 helpings of fresh fruit and veg a day:

• Poor levels of vitamin C have been linked with cancer...

A group of British teenagers has launched the first legal action in the U.K. against the makers of cervical cancer vaccine, Cervarix. They have suffered symptoms ranging from paralysis and ­seizures to fatigue and muscle aches since being given the vaccine. But a growing number of parents and medical experts believe the vaccine may have alarming side effects.

A spokeswoman for GlaxoSmith-Kline, which makes Cervarix, said: “Cervarix had to undergo rigorous testing with...

On Dec. 15, 2008, Benno Schmidt of the CBS Early Show reported on a BSA medical paper that will be released in a few weeks, telling about a new therapy treatment for 4 serious cancers. John Kanzius Cancer Research Foundation is the founder and inventor of a new research technique that can target and kill cancer cells with little invasion to the body and no side effects!

The inventor, John Kanzius, is not a doctor, nor even does he possess a college degree. And yet, he has...

Before Bob Marley died, he said to his son Ziggy "Money can't buy life."  He was right; all fortune on earth cannot buy health once it is too deteriorated. In fact, if gold and silver could buy health, there would not be so many diseases in the United States. Cardiovascular disease, diabetes and cancer, to name a few, are weapons that send thousands of people in the country of silence (death) every year.

Cardiovascular disease (CVD)- despite Progress of Science,...

With more than 1 000 deaths a year, cancer of the cervix represents a major cause of cancer death in women in USA. In the beginning of its development cervic precancerous lesions are caused by virus of the papillomavirus (HPV) family.

Thanks to smear, it is possible to achieve a genuine screening. But according to a French team, the cancer risk assessment could be improved by supplementing it with a more precise identification of the virus.

In July, 2008, British researchers claimed to have won a major victory for prostate cancer treatment. According to recently release reports, a new drug, abiraterone, may be used to treat as many as 80% of patients suffering from advanced forms of prostate cancer.

Researchers worldwide involved in the treatment of prostate cancer are cautiously optimistic, and welcoming what may arguably be the best news in prostate cancer treatment research in the past 15 years. It is thought...

Lung cancer, like all other cancers, is caused by a malfunction in the cells of the body which for whatever reason, embark on uncontrolled replication and growth. Cells undergo a cycle of birth and death many millions of times throughout the life of a person, but this is done in a controlled cycle which replaces old cells with new ones. When cancer strikes, the unchecked production of new cells leads to growths, known as tumors, and these physically interfere in the function of the...
