Cancer is generally caused by uncontrolled cell division, and can occur in any part of the body that is actively producing new cells. Most parts of the body produce new cells to replace old or worn out cells. When enough new cells are produced, the body sends a signal telling the cells to stop dividing. Cancer can occur if the cells fail to stop dividing, either because the mechanism that sends the stop signal is damaged, or the receptors on the new cells that receive the stop signal are damaged. This damage can be caused by a wide variety of external environmental factors (carcinogens), or by errors in the cells genetic code.

Main Causes of Cancer
1) Insufficient good quality fats, both saturated and unsaturated.
2) Insufficient good quality protein.
3) Excessive amounts of transfats from refined oils, hydrogenated fats and overcooking of foods.
4) Excessive amounts of poor quality protein from overcooking and processing of foods.
5) Lack of digestive enzymes from pancreas failure caused by a lifetime of eating poor quality foods.
6) Poisons in the food, air or water. Pesticides, PCBs, plastics, hydrocarbons, trihalomethanes, etc.
7) Excessive ingestion of drugs both recreational and pharmaceutical. This includes sugar, caffeine, nicotene and alcohol.
8) Nutritional deficiencies of vitamins and minerals, especially B6, C, proanthocyanidins, magnesium, potassium, selenium, etc.
9) Hormone imbalance, low thyroid, adrenal insufficiency, high estrogen, and estrogenic factors from environmental poisons.
10) Pathogens weakening the immune system function - parasites, yeast, bacteria, viruses.
11)Poor living habits - lack of sleep, exercise, lack of sunshine, meaningful work and activity.
