"Each one of us has cancer cells in us right now. One study describes how “by age 70, microscopic cancers are detected in the thyroid glands of virtually everyone. Most of these tumors never cause problems or become clinically significant, leading to the concept of ‘cancer without disease’ as a normal state during aging.” Cancer cells are commonly present in the body, but they can’t grow into tumors any bigger than that tiny dot size–no more than 10 million cancer cells–before needing to get hooked up to a blood supply. One way cancer turns on the tap is silencing certain tumor suppressor genes. How do we turn them back on? See, for example, Apple Skin: Peeling Back Cancer. Another way tumors commandeer a blood supply is by diabolically releasing angiogenic factors, chemicals that cause new blood vessels to sprout into the tumor. The most important one is called vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). But we may be able to suppress VEGF with veggies. Many of the phytonutrients we know and love in tea, spices, fruit, berries, broccoli, and beans can block cancer’s stimulation of new blood vessels. They’re ideal for prophylactic long-term use against breast cancer because of their reliability, availability, safety, and affordable price. A recent review concluded that we now have “convincing evidence that dietary plant constituents possess the unique ability to affect tumor angiogenesis, which may be deemed advantageous in the prevention and treatment of human breast cancer and other tumors.”" Re: everybody has cancer

Date: March 28, 2014 07:45PM Yep, the whole turning off/on genes applies to a variety of diseases. Some people may be born with more of a genetic susceptibility to certain diseases but those genes can be turned off through healthy lifestyle practices. It's a shame that many still believe cancer is "random" or that some people are doomed cause of genetics. I believe it's ignorance in many cases but some people just don't want to take responsibility for their own health and would rather complain about it and feel sorry for themselves instead.

Only when cancer cells reach over 90 million (or something) can it be detected and becomes a problem. I think the lowest rate of cancer cells a person can have is several thousand. Please don't quote me on the figures above. Brian Clement has spoken alot about cancer cells and their purpose, and another scientist gave reason why we must have cancer cells to stay alive/. www.thesproutarian.com Re: everybody has cancer
