Other than a few cancers .. no one really knows what 'causes' cancer. Think about this for one minute . . if we knew what 'caused' cancer than anyone exposed to the 'cause' would 'get cancer . . but the truth is that even if someone smokes all the time . . they may NEVER get cancer (not that it is healthy for you) . . and someone who has never smoked or been exposed to smoke will get lung cancer. Why? Why when the same people are exposed to carcinogens . .why does only one of them get cancer while the rest do not. So other than things like asbestos and radiation that is known to 'cause' cancer . . (but still not in everyone) there really isn't anything that actually 'causes' cancer. What people are confused about is that every carcinogen mentioned . . is just a RISK that you might get cancer . . not that you will. Thus, other than a few things . . nothing really causes cancer at all . . it just might, if the circumstances are right, trigger a cancer in an individual . . maybe.

Consider also that there are cancers that predominately strike either males or females . . suggesting that the 'cause' may have more to do with something happening internally within the human body. My son has a rare cancer that strikes males 4 to 1 . . there are other childhood cancers that too only strike males. Also there are many cancers in which age plays a factor .. thus childhood cancers refer to the primitive cells associated with childhood . . meaning that not only children get a childhood cancer . . a forty year old who still has the primitive cells from childhood can get a childhood cancer.

So called environmental 'causes' of cancer . . are highly over rated.

There is NO CANCER IN NORMAL METABOLISM. But all the junk food we eat, the chemical preservatives, like in bacon and smoked meats, the pollution in the air and the water, the alcohol we drink, the cigarettes we smoke...these are KNOWN carcinogens. Also, when we do not cleanse our insides, and keep adding more poisons and more pollutants, we eventually overcome our body's ability to resist and defend ourselves. Even the tanning machines destroy the natural defenses we have against skin cancers. Take your pick--Coke can dissolve a human tooth overnight, yet we won't stop drinking it even knowing that. Cigarettes are a KNOWN cancer cause--so does that make anyone stop smoking ? Rarely !! If we were to eat only organically grown healthy foods, stick to pure water, and no booze, drugs, butts, we could live a lot longer and a lot healthier. Will we do it? NO, because taste and addiction will prevent it, and someone is getting rich while we slowly die. Those are the facts !!!!!

1 in 4 will succumb to Cancer, depending on age. Every part of the Human Body has a genetic expiry date, like food, after that date is starts to go off. So as you age your heart might fail first, die from heart attack. Your blood vessels might burst, stroke, you might get a DVT, you might get run over by a Bus? If you avoid all above, chances are you will succumb to cancer. I believe that from the moment we are born, the day we die is already marked out, only problem is we do not know when! If you are really interested then research the IgM immunoglobulin and look how it increases with age.

Taking a shower does not cause cancer. But maybe if you stayed in the hot shower all the time and you got all pruney, then maybe that would cause skin cancer in the end.
