“Every single person who has cancer has pH that is too acidic”. Dr. Otto Warburg won the Nobel Prize in 1931 for proving that Cancer can’t survive in an alkaline, oxygen rich environment but thrives in an acidic, low oxygen environment.
Measles Vaccine Wipes Out Cancer in Groundbreaking Test
Researchers at the Mayo Clinic have completed a groundbreaking new test: They knocked widespread blood cancer into remission with a single massive blast of measles vaccine.
Stacy Erholtz, who was suffering from an advanced stage of blood cancer, recovered thanks to an intravenous injection of the measles virus, which was sufficient to overwhelm the cancer’s natural defenses, the StarTribune reports
As far as clinical trials go, this was a small test because it only had two subjects. But lead researcher Dr. Stephen Russell told StarTribune it’s a promising start.
“It’s a landmark. We’ve known for a long time that we can give a virus intravenously and destroy metastatic cancer in mice. Nobody’s shown that you can do that in people before,” he said.
The viruses bind to cancer cells and use them to replicate. The process destroys the cells, and the body’s immune system attacks what’s left since it’s marked as viral material. This test also gave doctors a benchmark for the virus dose needed to reduce cancer in patients — 100 billion infectious units instead of the standard 10,000 units.
There are still hurdles to overcome — like the body’s own defenses. Once the immune system has experience fighting a virus, it’s not effective a second time. The body attacks it before it can begin taking over cancer cells.
Doctors will also need to do more testing on more patients. They plan to expand their trials by September.

“The story of DNA continues to twist and turn”!
Scientists Discover Quadruple Helix: Four Strand DNA In Human Cells
by Arjun
The human race knows very little of itself, almost like a race with amnesia. As we continue to move forward through time, new discoveries are made that make old theories obsolete and false. It’s a good lesson that shows us how we can attach ourselves to “truths” and believe them whole-heartedly, often forgetting that truth is constantly changing and new paradigms of perception always lurk around the corner.
Decades after scientists described our “chemical code” of life using the double helix DNA, researchers have discovered four-stranded DNA within human cells. The structures are called G-quadruplexes, because they form in regions of DNA that are full of guanine, one of the DNA molecule’s four building blocks. The others are adenine, cytosine and thymine. A hydrogen bond is responsible for holding the four guanines together. The four stranded DNA usually presents itself right before cell division.
The discovery was published online in Nature Chemistry, and you can take a look at it here. The study was led by Shankar Balasubramanian at the University of cambridge, UK.
For us, it strongly supports a new paradigm to be investigated – using these four-stranded structures as targets for personalized treatments in the future.We have found that by trapping the quadruplex DNA with synthetic molecules we can sequester and stabilise them, providing important insights into how we might grind cell division to a halt — Shankar Balasubramanian
The study went on to show certain links between concentrations of four-stranded G-quandruplexes and the process of DNA replication, which is crucial to cell division and cell production. G-quadruplexes, (when targeted with synthetic molecules responsible for trapping and holding these DNA structures) prevent cells from replicating their DNA, thus blocking cell division. Scientists believe that this discovery could possibly lead to a stop in cell proliferation at the root of cancer ….

Saroop Ijaz on Imran Khan and the 19/90 days promise. Lying or stupid?
The lies and triangulations of Imran Khan
By Saroop Ijaz
When the educated, prudent Imran Khan supporter is asked for her views on the unbelievably grand proclamation of the ‘dear leader’ stating that he will uproot corruption in 19 days and eradicate terrorism in 90 days, there are always two slants, often one after the other. The devotee will inevitably begin by arguing how Imran Khan will unquestionably and quite breezily achieve the said objectives in the self-stipulated time period. If the line of reasoning is further pursued (or reasoning used at all), they will gingerly and sheepishly concede that statements might not be susceptible to literal implementation, but making an invigorated comeback, state that he is better than everyone else and has built a cancer hospital and who else could they vote for etc? At this point a smirk breaks out on the face of the PTI foot-soldier; to them it is the clincher. The best argument for Imran Khan is something which can be vaguely phrased as some notion of the ‘lesser evil’. There is some difficulty in grasping the concept of how the subsequent quantitative judgment about less or more is precisely made, once the qualitative determination of ‘evilness’ has been reached.
Let me be plain on the matter, the proclamations of Imran Khan on corruption and terrorism and the arbitrary, flashy deadlines are untrue on their face. They require no elaborate refutation, and a child of 10 having average intelligence should see through them, unless of course they have uncritical love blinding them. This brings us to the question of motive, here again an unflattering binary is unavoidable; either he is lying by design or he does not possess the fortitude to understand and realize what he says. At a core level, it is a choice between deceit and self-deceit. I do not think Imran Khan is fantastically intelligent, but he is decent by cricketer/politician standard. Hence, because he is not severely mentally handicapped, it is safe to say that he does know what he promises is not only undoable, it is impossible that he will get anywhere close to these deadlines in the best of circumstances. The blatant misrepresentations cannot be attributed to Spartan simple-mindedness or childlike innocence; it is done with complete knowledge. Therefore, even to put it at its mildest, Imran Khan is deliberately and consciously lying.

Vitamin C with vitamin E: A good heart medicine
Several studies show that Lemon (Citrus) or Vitamin C and vitamin E together protect heart muscles and blood vessels from cholesterol damage. Both vitamins are very nice anti-oxidants to fight the free radicals to protect our body from further damage. Therefore, taking vitamin C and vitamin E is good for heart, immune system and general health.
Lemon (Citrus) or Vitamin C is a miraculous product to kill cancer cells. It is 10,000 times stronger than chemotherapy. Why do we not know about that? Because there are laboratories that are only interested in making huge profits that’s why they don’t let you now about benefits lemon or vitamin C. You can now help you family and friends in need by letting them know that lemon juice or vitamin C is beneficial in preventing the diseases. Its taste is pleasant and it does not produce the horrific effects of chemotherapy. Lemon or vitamin C is credited with many virtues, but the most interesting is the effect it produces on cysts and tumors. Lemon or vitamin C is a proven remedy against cancers of all types. Some say it is very useful in all variants of cancer. It is considered also as an anti microbial spectrum against bacterial infections and fungi, effective against internal parasites and worms, it regulates blood pressure which is too high and an antidepressant, combats stress and nervous disorders.
Camel milk, urine to treat cancer?
DUBAI: A group of Arab researchers is claiming to have developed a medical formula for treating cancer by using camel’s milk and urine.
Researchers at Arab Biotechnology Company ( ABC) have said experiments conducted on mice have proved to be 100 % successful. They found the camel’s immune system was rejuvenating itself every time they took samples of milk and urine, making it one of the strongest immune systems.
The lab mice that have been injected with the new drug since six months are still live and their behavior natural like the healthy ones. The new remedy carries smart cells that can attack poisonous substance in the cancerous cells without producing any side effects, they added.
“The medicine, a combination of camel’s milk and urine, has been tested on experimental mice and will be tested on human being,” Abdalla Alnajjar, President of Arab Science and Technology Foundation said. …

Pakistan’s ugly secret – Pervez Hoodbhoy
There is a complete blackout on the effects of uranium mining in Dera Ismail Khan in south Punjab. Researchers too were defeated by the powerful nuclear establishment that keeps even health information as a national secret.
Sadly, absolutely nothing is known about disposal of nuclear waste in Pakistan. Are the authorities dumping low-level wastes in the sea or river? Where and how do they plan to bury the high-level wastes that will be lethal for thousands of years to come? Also, there is a complete blackout on the effects of uranium mining in Dera Ismail Khan in south Punjab. About 10 years ago, mine workers and other affected villagers had banded together after large numbers fell sick from lung disease and cancer. To the dismay of the Pakistan Atomic Energy Commission, they managed to produce a petition for the Lahore High Court. But,as invariably happens, the powers that be forced them to withdraw their case and some token compensation was given. Researchers too were defeated by the powerful nuclear establishment that keeps even health information as a national secret.
There are, however, other aspects of Pakistan’s nuclear programme that I have focused upon earlier and bring up yet again:
Pakistan got nothing from The Bomb
About twelve years ago a million Pakistanis danced in the streets after six nuclear weapons had been successfully tested. They had been told that making nuclear bombs was the biggest thing a country could do. Burma is said to be trying to make a bomb and may succeed too, but surely the North Korean nuclear test gave rock-solid proof that we Pakistanis have been fed a diet of lies.
North Korea is a country that no one admires. It is unknown for scientific achievement, has little electricity or fuel, food and medicine are scarce, corruption is ubiquitous, and its people live in terribly humiliating conditions under a vicious, dynastic dictatorship. In a famine some years ago, North Korea lost nearly 800,000 people. And it has an enormous prison population of 200,000 that is subjected to systematic torture and abuse.
Why does a miserable, starving country continue spending its last penny on the Bomb? On developing and testing a fleet of missiles whose range increases from time to time? The answer is clear: North Korea’s nuclear weapons and missiles are instruments of blackmail rather than means of defence. Brandished threateningly, and manipulated from time to time, these bombs are designed to keep the flow of international aid going.
Surely the people of North Korea gained nothing from their country’s nuclearisation. But they cannot challenge their oppressors. But, Pakistanis — who are far freer — must ask: what have we gained from the bomb? …

Tomatoes and Green Tea Will Keep You Cancer- Free
Scientific research suggests that who eats tomato products ten or more times a week have a 34% reduction in prostate cancers compared with those who eat tomatoes less than twice a week. Similarly, the risk of developing breast cancer is 30 to 50 percent lower among women who frequently eat foods containing tomato paste. How can tomato be such a wonderful drug? The reason appears to be, its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant power. Ingredient, lycopene. Lycopene helps retard or reverse the aging of cells and reduce the cancers.
Green tea also appears in the prevention of prostate and breast cancer. Different studies found that those who drink large amounts of green tea with out sugar have lower rates of prostate cancer and women who consume green tea have reduced ratios of breast cancer. Studies shown that flavonoids which are present in Green tea are such a powerful antioxidants and anti-inflammatory even more than that vitamin C and E combined.
Garlic promotes healthy heart, lower the blood pressure, Cholesterol and triglyceride
Garlic (in Sindhi- thoom) and (in Hindi and Urdu- lason) promotes the healthy heart, lower the blood pressure, cholesterol. If taking garlic with fresh washed green leafy vegetabes and limit Sodium (salt) intake can reduce the risk the heart attack and stroke 30%. It may enhance immune system. May prevent heart disease, it has anti-bacterial, antiviral, anti fungal action. It prevents blood clotting and it may prevent 20% from Cancer. It is a the good source of antioxidant.
Vitamin C as a treatment of Cancer
Vitamin C as a treatment of Cancer became the cause of Nobel Prize winner Linus Pauling in the 1970-80. Vitamin C is a potent antioxidant with a ability to detoxify the body. Vitamin C may also protect us from lung and skin cancer. Vitamin C enhances our immune system.
Raw vegetables are more protective than cooked vegetables
Fresh washed raw vegetables are more protective than cooked vegetables to reduce the rick of pancreatic cancer by more than half. The most beneficial vegetables that identified by the scientific studies are; Garlic, ginger, onions, carrots and dark leafy green vegetables. These simple veges have incredible power of protection from cancer. Vegetables are good source of minerals and vitamins. Vegetables can play a great role in good general health.
Poverty & privilege are associated with different cancers
Poor nutrition is associated with these higher incidences of cancer; Stomach cancer (poor diet), Lung cancer (smoking is co-factor), cervical caner, cancers of the mouth. Higher- income groups are associated with the cancers that are linked to “luxury” or “opportunity” such as higher-fat diets, which usually are seen with less physical activity:- colon cancer.
Sugar is Not good for Health
Sugar is one of the damaging substance to health. It is added into so many foods, it causes diabetes, obesity, depression, mental illness, mood swings, candida or parasitic (bad bectaria and bad fungs) overgrowth, osteoporosis and cancer.
Vitamin C: reduce the risk of Cancer & heart disease
Data from clinical trials over the past several decades reveals that vitamin C may help prevent a variety of health disorders, including immune system deficiencies, cardiovascular disease, eye disease and cancer. Women and men who take a daily multivitamin and vitamin C supplements can significantly improve their fertility, new research indicates. Vitamin C 250mg twice daily along with vitamin E 400 IU act as powerful antioxidant and anti-gaining medicine. Vitamin C and Vitamin B-complex support the adrenal gland support the skin, eyes and bones. Vitamin C also reduces the risk of Cancer & heart disease.

Scientists slow cancer’s growth
By destroying stem cells that drive tumor’s expansion, melanoma can be controlled
Targeting cancer stem cells
Boston researchers have isolated small population of dangerous cells that initiate melanoma skin cancer- and, for the first time, found a way to halt the growth of these rogue cells. Experts believe that destroying these so-called cancer stem cells is akin to killing the roots of weeds and say attacking them may emerge as one of the most promising ways to treat most types of cancers by injecting special antibody are able to fight melanoma skin cancer.
Eat to Beat Cancer
We are what we eat. Through the evolutionary time, we as a race have survived and developed. There is still much uncertainty about our food and its relationship to health. 1. Reduce your intake of animal fat; 2. Increase your daily fiber content; 3. Eat plenty of fresh washed fruit and vegetables; 4. Avoid obesity. These days cancer affects thousands, but conclusive research shows that by eating wisely we can not only improve our chances of beating cancer, we can also considerably cut the risk of developing cancer in the first place.
Doctors estimate that 35% of cancers are related to poor diet. This means that there’s a great deal we can do to help ourselves by changing the way we eat and knowing which are the important foods that will help our bodies stay free from cancer. Try to eat raw vegetables or cooked vegetables on slowly low heat. They may help you.
