Causes Of Cancer

Cancer is the most common form of age related disease

Causes of Cancer

Cancer results when cells mutate. This mutation is caused by an excessive build up of toxins within the cell.

These toxins are in the foods we eat, the air we breathe, the water we drink, the chemicals we use and the cosmetics we wear.

So much effort is put into the treatment of cancer, yet so little is put into reducing the level of toxins in our environment.

The body has a very efficient waste collection and disposal system. At normal toxin levels, such as those experienced 200 years ago, the body could rid itself of these toxins, preventing a build up at cell level.

Natural carcinogens have invaded our natural environments. And we are continuing to increase the levels. But before the 19th Century, we lacked the industry to mass produce toxins. Today, there isn't a cubic centimeter of soil, water or air that's completely free of man-made carcinogenic toxins.

Today, the levels of toxins are far too great for the bodies natural processes to keep up with them. The toxins affect the cell DNA, so that when the cell divides in its normal lifecycle process, the new cell is mutated, it is cancerous.

By exposing ourselves constantly to substances that adversely affect our genetic structures we essentially make cancer an inevitable reality.

Some will argue that the price of living in an industrial society is massive exposure to toxins, and that it is a necessary trade-off for our survival and standard of living.
