When will we ever figure out the cure for cancer?

Answer 1

The field of medicine is growing by leaps and bounds. Although I do not think a "cure" will ever be found, I do believe there will be more treatment options open to the public.

Answer 2

The answer has been found in preventing it in the first place. U.S. law 103-417 has shown that over 20,000 studies conclude we can prevent disease such as cancer, heart disease and osteoporosis, 2 of the 3 biggies, by proper healthful diets. Here is a link to the FDA's website and law http://www.fda.gov/opacom/laws/dshea.html

The problem is, who's going to advertise it? Not the pharmaceutical industry as that will put them out of business. Not the disease associations, Cancer Inst. Diabetes Assoc... as that will put them out of business. Of course we keep supporting them because we want "the cure". Diabetes magazine, a national publication, wrote an article how drug companies are not looking to create cures, they are looking for more ways to treat symptoms. In fact, they are looking forward to the next block buster disease. Diabetes has lancetes, glucose monitors, shoes, socks, insulins, boots, several drugs for circulation, glucose monitoring... and more. The are waiting for a similar disease to create more products and profits. This is why I don't support the "Race for the Cure" or any other like organization.

We all know that eating properly is key but, did you know the FDA raised the servings amount of fruits and vegetables to 9-11 servings everyday? Why? Because our foods do not have the nutritional value they had 50 years ago and we need to eat more to get the same previous value. Who even eats the 3-5? That is why we need to supplement our diets with whole foods nutrition. That is also why I became a wellness consultant and although I know the task ahead of me is daunting, the reward will be great. I could sure use your help in spreading the word. Thanks.

Answer 3

The rate of death from cancer has been going down steadily since the early '90s at least. Prevention can be as good as a cure, but at least we're learning more about it.

Answer 4

Yes, when it becomes more profitable to cure cancer than to merely treat it.

That's where the money is right now--treatment, chemo, surgery etc etc.

No way the medical industry is going to give up all that lovely cash by actually curing people with cancer.

Sad but true.

Answer 5

Cure? How about prevention? Why don't we try to stop all this pollution and research products before we release them so we wouldn't have so many cases of cancer in the first place?

Answer 6

Which one?

I've heard that there are as many kinds of cancers as there are possible sites in the body...perhaps even more.

Great progress has already been made with some cancers...notably, leukemia...and work continues on others. We all pray the day will come soon when it will be curable.

Answer 7

We actually have cures for alot of cancers. Not all and yes there's odds you won't make it through but there's odds that you're gonna get hit by a bus too.

Answer 8

I truely do not know My best bet would be when they start building space sommities out in space for familys to live and maybe find a cure in space maybe in the next 20 years or less

Answer 9

who knows cancer has been around for a long time and they still have not found a cure

Answer 10

I've been curing cancer with apricot seeds for decades until the FDA locked me up for interfering with customers to the AMA and SMK and such. You want a piece of me you can get me at my site www.seedoffaith.com .
