keep one’s body healthy, clean and free of bacteria. It further added that cider can be used as face cleanser and mask. They also provide knowledge about the risk factor of using the laboratory personal care product which increases the chances of cancer, skin disease, Alzheimer’s and loss of fertility. Lastly, it also clarifies the difference between the clear vinegar as a harmful product and apple cider vinegar has a lot of heath properties. This eBook also provides easy to made…

can stop cancer? Cobalt-60? How nuclear medicine is helping an individual and society at large. Can you imagine that the orderly process of replacing damaged cells into new cells in your body stops? This is what happens with people who get cancer and if their treatment is not done fast, it can lead to death. Gamma knife therapy uses cobalt-60’s gamma radiation to destroy cancerous growth. In this paper, I will reflect on the research on cobalt-60 and its impact in the field of cancer, its…

its variety of forms, cancer is estimated to affect more than 14 million people per year, and is the cause the death of more than 8 million (National Cancer Institute). Despite millions of dollars of research in the field, and a concentrated effort by researchers around the globe, a panacea for cancer doesn’t exist, although much headway has been made in earlier detection and better treatment methods. Much of the difficulty in treating the disease lies in its diversity; cancer is as varied as it…

Breast cancer can be generally described as a malignant tumor in breast cells. There are two types of breast cancer. It can either being to form in the milk-producing glands, lobules, or in the ducts of that carry milk to the nipple. Cancer that forms in the lobules is lobular carcinoma while cancer that develops in the milk ducts is ductal carcinoma. The lobules and ducts of the breast are spread throughout the adipose and fibrous tissue that make up the majority of the mass of the breast. The…

and is much safer than alcohol and cigarettes. Cannabis offers America much more, but with it being illegal the U.S can not capitalize on these benefits. In the medical world one of the most terrifying and common disease is cancer. Since their is no absolute cure for cancer doctors remain diagnosing people everyday with the disease. Instead of using a cure, the patients…

Lung cancer carcinogenesis occurs when there is uncontrolled growth of mutated cells in one or both lungs. The cancer develops from mutations in normal cells; the mutated cells form tumors and interfere with the oxygen flow to the body via the blood stream. Tumors develop because of field cancerization, which is the same consecutive genetic and morphologic changes that form an aggressive tumor. Not having oxygen flow can make it very hard for a person to breathe and may cause their body and…

Brain cancer Brain cancer is a form of cancer that takes place in the brain of the patient but can affect all functionality of the rest of the body. Common symptoms that could possibly indicate brain cancer are seizures, sleepiness, confusion and behavioral changes. Brain tumors are generally believed to be brain cancer, but that is not always the case. Some brain tumors can be cancerous, but others are not considered malignant, or cancerous. Malignant tumors are dangerous due to the fact…

About 1 in 8 U.S women will develop invasive breast cancer over the course of her lifetime. In 2016, an estimated 246,660 new cases of invasive breast cancer are expected to be diagnosed in women in the U.S, along with 61,000 new cases of non-invasive breast cancer. All cancers begin in cells; our body has billons of cells. Cancer starts with changes of one cell or many cells. We have the right amount of cell in our body. The cells produce signals to control how much and how often cells divide.…

nonspecific nature of the chemotherapy drug, it is hypothesized that chemotherapy temporarily solves the problem and fails to completely eliminate the the cancer stem cells, which harbor the potential for self-renewal and continuous proliferation. This has lead to the need for a better drug and therefore an explosion in cancer research focused on targeted cancer therapy. In acute myeloid leukemia, various mutations in the FMS like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3), a receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK),…

the questions of what is gene editing, what it might treat and the biggest hurdle. Also the ethnic controversy, if it is legal and its possibility beyond medicine. This helps my presentation because it talks about what gene editing could fix, like cancer and HIV. This article discusses the ethical, social and legal issues of gene editing. Different restrictions and regulations in…
