How is the immune system implicated in cancer?

Answer 1

In the alternative medicine model of disease, our IMMUNE SYSTEMS become weakened by poor nutrition, lack of exercise and reduced oxygen. Once that happens, our body becomes vulnerable to common STRESSORS. Stressors can be environmental, like viruses, heavy metals, pesticides, food additives, electromagnetic waves or pollution. They can be internal things like emotional or job stress, or poisonous people in our lives. Aging is also a contributing factor. So this means:

WEAK IMMUNE SYSTEM + STRESSORS = DISEASE (cancer, diabetes, heart disease, etc.)

Our bodies have 60 trillion--yes, trillion--cells, and there are always some mutating into cancer cells, but a healthy immune system kills them before they have a chance to get a foothold in the body.

It takes a LONG time, usually, or a high level of stressors, to weaken the immune system to the point where it won't do its job, but once cancer has formed, it will generally spread rapidly.

Perhaps you should look into what alternative medicine has to offer.

Answer 2

Cancer weakens the immune system and this puts patients at risk for other problems during their bout with this dibilitating disease. Everyone has cnacer cells in their bodies and some are dormant and others are recessive. Cancer causes havoc on the immune system and this is why cancer treatment is needed right away for cancer patients.

Answer 3

The immune system is compromised or overwhelmed by cancer. It is not implied in anything.
