Why Don’t We All Have Cancer?

“Everyone has cells that have mutant proteins from DNA damage, but to say that that’s cancer would be alarmist,” says Jennifer Loros, Ph.D, a professor of biochemistry and genetics at Dartmouth medical school. A cell’s natural cycle has checkpoints when it determines whether it’s in a healthy state and should divide, or is damaged and should repair or kill itself. “Cancer can occur when the normal checkpoints in the cell cycle are misregulated somehow and the [unhealthy] cell starts dividing,” Loros says. Usually, a powerful protein called P-53 will trigger tumor suppression if damage is detected at the checkpoint, causing a potential cancer to stop dead in its tracks.

What if I told you that each and every one on this earth has Cancer cells in their bodies, but not all of us would actually get cancer? And what if I told you that each person controls a large part of their own likelihood of getting cancer or not?

So many of us live under the false intuition that cancer is just a game of luck. Faulty genetic makeup only partly determines whether our fate lies hostage to cancer. More important is how our way of life creates an environment for mutated and possibly cancerous cells to grow or not.

All day everyday we are making choices and putting ourselves in environments that will either protect us from getting cancer or will make us more susceptible to the disease. Our eating habits are one of the major factors that will give to cancer growth or cancer starvation and elimination. Three to five times each day we eat meals. That is three to five times a day that we mentally decide what we are putting in our bodies. We need certain nutrients and proteins to function, but sometimes what our bodies need and what our taste buds want don’t exactly align.

Current Western surveys of nutrition show that 56% of our calories come from 3 sources that were nonexistent when our genes were developing. Those calories are, refined sugars (cane and beet sugar, corn syrup, etc.), bleached flour (white bread, white pasta, etc.), and vegetable oils (soybean, sunflower, corn and trans fats). Funny enough, none of these 3 sources contain any of the proteins, vitamins, minerals and omega-3 fatty acids that our bodies require to function, however, the one thing that they do nurture is cancerous cells.

So we know that foods can contribute to cancer cell growth but certain foods can also give cause to cancer death and prevention. This was first discovered when researchers noticed a significant difference in cancer rates in the West compared to Eastern nations. One of the major differences between these two groups of people was their food and beverage consumption.  CONTINUE ARTICLE BELOW
