Herbal medicines have always ruled over medical treatment of disease. From several generations we have observed the miracles of herbal medicines. Nature has given us plenty of plants and trees, few of which hold therapeutic values. So far, humans have succeeded to recognize few of them and used them to cure human disease. Oregano is one the rare trees which are found in Mediterranean zone. Its values have been identified far long back by Babylonians, Geek and English people. They used...

In the English language the word "cancer", besides the medical definition, is synonymous with "evil", "scourge", "blight" and "corruption". Although this is not to say that people with cancer are evil (G-d forbid), malignancies come from an evil place. And, since the physical is an expression of the spiritual, they emanate from the dark side of the soul. Moreover, each of the synonyms actually describes the various facets of the...

The overwhelming majority of asbestos exposure comes from the workplace. Exposure to hazardous asbestos can be an impetus for disease development such as lung cancer and mesothelioma. One interesting study is called, "Respiratory cancer in relation to occupational exposures among retired asbestos workers" by Philip Enterline, Pierre De Coufle, and Vivian Henderson - Br J Ind Med 1973;30. Here is an excerpt: "Abstract - A cohort of 1 348 men who completed...

Mesothelioma is a rare form of cancer that is caused by asbestos exposure. One of the main risk factors for developing this disease is occupational exposure. A lot of excellent research has been on asbestos and its wide reaching impact. One interesting study is called, "In vitro cytotoxicity of asbestos and man-made vitreous fibers: roles of fiber length, diameter and composition" by G.A. Hart, L.M. Kathman and T.W. Hesterberg - Carcinogenesis Volume 15,...

Exposure to hazardous asbestos material can lead to some deadly diseases. When asbestos fibers are broken or fragmented into tiny pieces they can be inhaled or swallowed and attack the body. One interesting study is called, "Genetic effects of crocidolite asbestos in Chinese hamster lung cells" by S. L. Huang, D. Saggioro, H. Michelmann and H. V. Malling- Mutation Research/Fundamental and Molecular Mechanisms of Mutagenesis Volume 57, Issue 2, 1978, Pages...

Most people are exposed to asbestos in the workplace, often due to lack of proper safety procedures and shortcuts. Some occupations are considered more dangerous than others. One interesting study is called, "A mortality study among workers in an English asbestos factory" By J Peto, R Doll, S V Howard, L J Kinlen, and H C Lewinsohn - Br J Ind Med 1977;34:169-173. Here is an excerpt: "Abstract - The previous report on this cohort study of workers in an...

Disease development caused by asbestos exposure is well known and documented. One thing that is less known is how ubiquitous asbestos really is. One interesting study is called, "Asbestos fibers in beverages, drinking water, and tissues: Their passage through the intestinal wall and movement through the body" by Cunningham, HM - Pontefract, RD - Journal of the association of official analytical chemists, Volume 56, No 4, P 976-981, July 1973. Here is an...

Some occupations are considered more dangerous when it comes to asbestos exposure. For example, people working as pipefitters, plumbers, and electricians suffer from an inordinate rate of mesothelioma disease. This has been the subject of a great deal of research. One interesting study is called, "Asbestos exposure, smoking habits, and cancer incidence among production and maintenance workers in an electrochemical plant" by Bjorn Hilt, MD, Sverre Langad, MD,...

One of the greatest things that someone can do is to join a cause against breast cancer. One of the ways that many people are doing this nowadays is by signing up for a walk or run that sponsors breast cancer awareness as well as research to help find a cure for cancer. In most states (if not all of them), you can find and register for runs, walks, committees and other types of leadership roles to raise awareness for breast cancer. Often times, it is harder on the family members...

Most people that are diagnosed with mesothelioma have been exposed to asbestos in the workplace. One interesting study on point is called, "Mesothelioma and lung tumors attributable to asbestos among petroleum workers" by Valerio Gennaro, MD, Murray M. Finkelstein, MD, Marcello Ceppi, DSc, Vincenzo Fontana, DSc, Fabio Montanaro, DSc, Alessandra Perrotta, DSc, Riccardo Puntoni, DSc, Stefania Silvano, MD - American Journal of Industrial Medicine Volume 37 Issue 3, Pages...
