submitted by: admin on 09/21/2013
The FDA is requiring that Avodart and Proscar manufacturers disclose that there is an approximately 50% increased incidence of high grade prostate cancer with their usage.

submitted by: admin on 09/19/2013
Recent studies on prostate cancer show that digoxin may not only slow cancer growth but also induce apoptosis. Studies in the early 1900s on breast cancer showed that people on digitalis rarely have cancer progress or lead to death. This rather startling information has not made it into mainstream medicine and for the most part digitalis is not used...

Can Supplements Cause Cancer?
submitted by: admin on 09/19/2013
In previous studies it has been shown that certain vitamins and minerals can lower the risk of prostate cancer. Now a study shows that vitamin E at 400 IU/day for several years actually increased the risk of prostate cancer by 17%.
We tend to assume that supplements are entirely safe when the data is not in. This thinking is no different from big...

Living with Cancer with Dr. Richard Kunin
submitted by: admin on 11/22/2024
When we think of cancer, a lot of the time we think about the big C and we get freaked out about what we got and we're thinking about all the horrible things that are going to happen to us. And yet, we live with cancer all the time. We all have cancer in us at any single moment of time and some of those cancers are fairly sizable. Autopsies done...
Radical Healthcare Reform and the Future of Medicine
submitted by: admin on 11/22/2024
Health care reform (HCR) is a necessity, but little true HCR is on the table for either Democrats or Republicans.

Neither approach represents HCR; they merely address how the present health care system might be sustained.
