Re: Cancer viruses and dealing with cancer

Hveragerthi,
From what I have read of your posts re' a virus or viruses being a cause of cancer, this is what Cancer Research UK have to say on the matter............
*****************************************************

"Viruses can help to cause some cancers. But this does not mean that these cancers can be caught like an infection. What happens is that the virus can cause genetic changes in cells that make them more likely to become cancerous.

These cancers and viruses are linked

* Cervical cancer, and other cancers of the genital and anal area, and the genital wart virus, HPV
* Primary liver cancer and the Hepatitis B and C viruses
* Lymphomas and the Epstein-Barr Virus
* T cell leukaemia in adults and the Human T cell leukaemia virus
* HPV also probably leads to oropharyngeal cancer and non melanoma skin cancers in some people

There will be people with primary liver cancer and with T cell leukaemia who haven't had the related virus. But infection increases their risk of getting that particular cancer. With cervical cancer, scientists now believe that everyone with an invasive cervical cancer has had an HPV infection beforehand.

Many people can be infected with a cancer causing virus, and never get cancer. The virus only causes cancer in certain situations. Many women get a high risk HPV infection, but never develop cervical cancer.
*************************************************

The clue I believe is in the last paragraph, in that a virus could probably be a catalyst for certain cancers to develop, because the bodily conditions for cancer to arise (as with any other disease) exist, because of nutritional deficiencies, a weak immune system, and something that Hygienists have stated for many decades: metabolic toxemia, whether of an endogenous or exogenous origin. These conditions will then provide the bodily environment for cancer to be begin and the virus to have an effect.

This is why some people would be more susceptible to develop cancer than others, and under the same conditions; but if the body has a strong immune system, and free from toxemia, coupled with an optimized nutritional status, the metabolic and bodily-environmental conditions are absent for a virus to take hold or have any effect or impact.
This is why cholera (for example) can only develop in unhygienic conditions; but if bodily and environmental Hygiene is exemplary, then the disease cannot take hold.

In that sense, I would say that a virus of any description is not therefore the cause of cancers, but merely the possible catalyst for it to be made manifest in the body.
