Only 15% of lung cancer cases are discovered while the tumor is in the early stages of development

The second most common cancer is lung cancer.  Last year in the US, nearly 220,000 people were newly diagnosed with lung cancer.  That is more than double the amount of people that fit in the Michigan Stadium.  The high number of those affected could be lowered through the use of early diagnosis techniques. 

One early diagnosis technique involves the use of biomarkers.  Biomarkers are biological molecules which are used to measure the progress of disease.  They are also used to measure the effects of treatment.      

Dr. Sung Baek and fellow researchers from The Institute of Drug Development study biomarkers.  They identified potential biomarkers for lung cancer and asthma.  The greater understanding of lung cancer and asthma biomarkers may greatly lower the number of lung cancer deaths.

Asthma Is a Known Risk Factor for Lung Cancer

Asthma is a chronic inflammation of the bronchial tubes.  It affects nearly 300 million people worldwide.  Which is slightly less than the entire population of the United States.  Asthma is a known risk factor for lung cancer.  The high numbers of those affected by lung cancer could be lowered through the use of early detection and symptom reduction of asthma patients.

One early detection technique involves the use of biomarkers.  Biomarkers are biological molecules which are used to measure the progress of disease.  They are also used to measure the effects of treatment. 

Dr. Sung Baek and fellow researchers from The Institute of Drug Development study biomarkers.  They identified potential biomarkers for asthma. They also analyzed a natural product, known as IND#70190 throughout the study, which demonstrated efficacy.  The greater understanding of biomarkers and the use of the natural product may greatly assist in symptom reduction.  The reduction of symptoms may lead to fewer lung cancer deaths.

The Identification of Lung Cancer Biomarkers is Essential for Early Diagnosis

The leading cause of cancer-related deaths is lung cancer.  The death total is approximately 160,000 per year.  That equals the total number of people in attendance at the 2008 Beijing Olympic opening ceremony.  The high death rate could be lowered through the use of early diagnosis techniques.

One early diagnosis technique involves the use of biomarkers.  Biomarkers are biological molecules which are used to measure the progress of disease.  They are also used to measure the effects of treatment. 

Dr. Sung Baek and fellow researchers from The Institute of Drug Development study biomarkers.  They identified potential biomarkers for lung cancer.  They also analyzed two natural products that demonstrated anticancer activities.  Their greater understanding of biomarkers and the use of the natural products may greatly lower the number of lung cancer deaths.

"Cancer was higher ... cancer was lower." I'm Confused

In the Adventist Health Study in California, vegetarians had a significantly lower risk for cancers of the colon and prostate than non-vegetarians, but the risk for breast cancer did not differ significantly between these dietary groups (Fraser, 1999). The first results from EPIC-Oxford suggested that the incidence of breast cancer did not differ significantly between vegetarians and non-vegetarians (Travis et al, 2008) - Adventist Health Study In California

For more than 130 years Seventh-day Adventists [a Religion] (SDAs) have practiced a vegetarian dietary lifestyle because of their belief in the holistic nature of humankind.- http://www.sdada.org/position.htm

Stomach cancer risk differed significantly between the dietary groups, and was significantly lower in the vegetarians than in the meat eaters, with a similar (non-significantly) low risk among the fish eaters. This observation was based on only 49 cases of stomach cancer. - British Journal of Cancer

The risk for cancer of the cervix was significantly higher among vegetarians than among meat eaters, with a similar (non-significantly) high risk among the fish eaters. The principal cause of cervical cancer is human papillomavirus. Dietary factors have been suspected of influencing risk, but no firm conclusions have been drawn (García-Closas et al, 2005) The increased risks observed in non-meat eaters were based on only 50 cases overall and might be due to non-dietary factors, such as differences in attendance for cervical cancer screening, or to chance. - British Journal of Cancer

The risk for ovarian cancer differed significantly between the dietary groups, and was significantly lower among fish eaters than among meat eaters. In a review, Schulz et al (2004) concluded that high meat consumption may be associated with an increased risk of ovarian cancer. The risk for bladder cancer was lower among vegetarians than among meat eaters, based on 85 cancers overall. - British Journal of Cancer

Then, in a totally different study:
We report cancer incidence among vegetarians and nonvegetarians in the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition-Oxford (EPIC-Oxford) study. DESIGN: This was a prospective study of 63,550 men and women recruited throughout the United Kingdom in the 1990s... Within the study, the incidence of all cancers combined was lower among vegetarians than among meat eaters, but the incidence of colorectal cancer was higher in vegetarians than in meat eaters. - European Prospective Investigation

Back to the original study:
In the Adventist Health Study, a lower risk for colon cancer was observed among vegetarians compared with non-vegetarians - British Journal of Cancer

A potential weakness of this type of study [by the British Journal of Cancer] is the accuracy of the assessment of vegetarian status. - British Journal of Cancer

NEXT: Why I Won't Date a Vegetarian or Ashton Kutcher

French scientists have shown that taking antioxidant supplements, which include vitamins C and E and beta carotene, may increase a woman's risk of skin cancer by 68 percent.

The risk of melanoma, the most serious form of skin cancer, was four times greater for women taking the antioxidant supplements.

The article continues:

"The researchers looked at about 13,000 French adults, ages 35 to 60, half of whom took an oral daily capsule of antioxidant that contained vitamins C, E, beta carotene and selenium. The other half took a placebo.

And after 7.5 years,

"What they found was that 51 of the women taking the antioxidants developed skin cancer, compared to only 30 percent of those taking the placebo.

This accounts for the 68% increase in skin cancer risk found in the 6,500 non placebo users who did take the commonly available antioxidants.

This seems to go against scientific wisdom from all sources:

"Previous studies on animals have shown that when antioxidants are given prior to exposure to ultraviolet light there is a protective effect against skin cancer. - Same Article.

Referring to the power of most antioxidants, even present in coffeeberries, Doris J. Day, clinical assistant professor of dermatology at New York University Medical Center states:

...can fight wrinkles, calm redness, reduce swelling, and according to new research, may even help prevent skin cancer.

Cellular swelling and water retention is dangerous because it dramatically cuts down your body's blood and immune system circulation, dramatically increasing your cancer risk. Even the American Cancer Society has an article on swelling.

The ABC news article seems to contradict the following finding as well:

The addition of antioxidants such as vitamins E or C can help prevent skin cancer and keep skin firm and young looking. “Ultraviolet radiation is known to cause several forms of skin cancer, including basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell cancer and deadly melanoma,” said Kerry Hanson, a postdoctoral research scientist in the UI’s Laboratory for Fluorescence Dynamics. - Science Daily

Even the National Cancer Institute states:

Considerable laboratory evidence from chemical, cell culture, and animal studies indicates that antioxidants may slow or possibly prevent the development of cancer. - NCI FACT SHEET 

So why all the confusion? The same article points to an answer:

This study, the researchers say, was different because the "antioxidants are given only after many years of exposure to sunlight." They conclude that at this stage in life — ages 35 to 60 — it may be too late to prevent genetic damage, hence the skin cancer.

Are you considering giving your children an early start? Could the most powerful and uncommon super-antioxidant, Astaxanthin have made a difference (550x-1,000s of times more powerful than Vitamins A, C, E, Lutein, Omega oils, etc) to those adults suffering from skin cancer? Can the cellular level anti swelling effects of Astaxanthin actually be felt immediately? See: JBNI Biodrux Press Release on Noagin containing Astaxanthin, Zeaxanthin, Lutein...
