Geopathic Stress - Is Excessive Exposure Contributing to Cancer?
Geopathic stress has been linked to cancer through numerous studies dating back more than 60 years and yet most people are unaware of this dangerous phenomenon. If you're unfamiliar with the term, it simply refers to the unhealthy energy generated by the Earth as well as man-made sources.What is Geopathic Stress?Geopathic stress takes the form of natural radiation that literally rises up from the Earth. This radiation is distorted by underground cavities, fault lines, certain mineral concentrations and subterranean running water, all of which create weak electromagnetic fields.

Almost everyone has experienced the devastating impact of cancer; either first hand or from having watched a friend or loved one that suffered at the hands of this deadly disease. And yet despite the threat posed by cancer, despite the thousands who die from it each and every year, the modern medical community blatantly ignores information about the cause of cancer that has been known for almost 80 years.How and Why Cancer Cells FormThe cause of cancer has been known since 1931 when renowned scientist Dr. Warburg won the Nobel Prize for making the startling discovery that whenever healthy, normal cells are deprived of 60% of their oxygen, they turn cancerous in an attempt to survive.Normal cells generate energy...
Curing Cancer Is Easy - The Simple Truth Your Doctor Can't Tell You
We all know how deadly cancer is. None of us get through this life without getting cancer ourselves or losing loved ones and friends to it. Yes, cancer is indeed leading to dozens of deaths, even as you read this, but it is leading to these deaths in a way that you are not being told about.The real cause of the millions of cancer deaths that take place every year are being directly caused by the very people who are supposed to be providing a cure - the doctors.

In fact, the techniques that physicians are using to treat cancer are actually bringing about death.Cancer - Another Look At This Killer DiseasePhysicians and researchers...
The Secret Within You That Can Cure Cancer
Most people fail to realize just how remarkable our innate healing abilities are. It's not just common colds that our bodies are capable of fighting off, but deadly diseases as well; even cancer cannot withstand the natural healing power of our own bodies.Unfortunately, we often make the mistake of interfering with these natural healing processes despite the fact that our bodies already employ healing techniques that are light years ahead of even the most sophisticated technology and medicine available today. As a result, we needlessly suffer more than we would have had we simply left our bodies to work their healing magic.The Truth about Modern MedicinePractitioners of western medicine are trained to address the symptoms of the diseases and ailments that we suffer from rather than the root...
Curing Cancer - Chemotherapy Is A Killer Not A Cure
Cancer is a plague on the face of the Earth. Think about the millions of people that are killed by cancer every year and the multi-millions of loved ones whose lives are affected as a result. Chemotherapy is currently the most popular method for "curing cancer", but is it really a cure?A closer look at this methodology, so commonly used all over the world as a supposed cancer cure, reveals a very different truth altogether. Many patients, in desperate, life or death situations, are given a prescription for chemotherapy that ends up being a very real death sentence, instead of offering the cure that they are in search of.Death Doesn't Bring HealingThe whole concept of how chemotherapy works is illogical to the point that it would be funny if the stakes were not so high. Chemotherapy drugs work...

Growth Of Cancer Cells
BySasi KrishnaCancer is a broad term for the irregular development of cells. Generally a human body is a huge compilation of cells, and also all human bodies comprising 23 pairs of chromosomes. Imagine if we see each pair of chromosome, there we can find a duplicate gyrate of the DNA molecule, the hereditary design for life. DNA is the tester to verify and communicator of the heredity-designed distinctiveness in the chromosomes we acquire from our birth and transfer it to our children. Any abnormal growth of normal cells, in region of the body, or organs or in any tissues is called a cancerous growth.Cancerous growth are of two types, such as benign and malignant.

ByEthan R. KalvinFor quite some time now we, the general public, have been warned about the harmful effects of the sun's rays and the ways in which they can not only destroy our skin but hurt us and even potentially give us skin cancers like melanoma.
