Cancer development requires genetic changes in several different oncogenes and tumor suppressors. Mutated cells occur with any change in the DNA sequence of a cell. Therefore, mistakes may cause mutations during cell division, or they may be caused by exposure to DNA-damaging agents in the environment. Thus, cancer is a disease of many cellular mutations.

Micrometastasis a metastatic tumor that is too small to be identified in a scan. “studies suggest that up to 50 percent of patients with histologically normal lymph nodes have micrometastases detected by molecular techniques” (more…)
Healthy normal cells have a structure determined by their DNA so do cancer cells CTC. They need energy to exist and live, which they derive from chemicals in the food you consume. All cells need a system to deliver nutrients such as amino acids, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, and minerals to them.
It has been well established that chemotherapy and radiation treatments for cancer can induce toxic side effects on the body.
This is an unfortunately common consequence of these therapies due to their effects on healthy cells. One type of toxic side effect induced by chemotherapy and/or radiation is mucositis.
More and more doctors, researchers, and scientists are looking into the field of sound therapy especially bio-resonance therapy and the use of binaural beats.
To really understand binaural beats and bio-resonance therapy, we first need to discuss the healing power of sound. Although the creation of binaural beats has only been possible through advancements in technology in the last few decades or so, the use of this natural science dates back thousands of years.
Chemotherapy and radiation is an integral part of cancer treatment, more than half of all cancer patients will undergo one or both therapies.
With significant advances made in the field of chemo and radiation the amount of long-term cancer survivors has dramatically increased over the years, however, there is a growing concern about the chance of developing a secondary malignancy.
The abscopal effect refers to the ability of localized radiation treatment of a tumor to have systemic anti-tumor effects.
In the past, this has been rare and deemed almost a magical form of recovery. However, with continued developments in cancer research and immunotherapy strategies, this miraculous form of recovery is becoming more of a realistic possibility for cancer patients.
It has been long known in the medical field that proper healing of the body and resistance to infection cannot occur without oxygen.
Oxygen is believed to be required for all the major processes involved in wound healing, including resistance to infection, activation of fibroblasts, collagen deposition, angiogenesis, and epithelization.
Cancer cells are cells gone wrong, in other words.
They no longer respond to many of the signals that control cellular growth and death as described in the Krebs Cycle. Cancer cells originate within tissues and, as they grow and divide, they change even further from normalcy.
