There was this man who was trying to scale mountain peak
as quickly as possible. His first attempt took him 2 hours to reach to the
peak. He exercised and tried again and again, and managed to scale the same
peak in 1hour 30 minutes. But beyond that, no matter how hard he tried, he
could not reduce the time required. Then one day, he flew to the top of the
mountain in 10minutes, in Hot Air Balloon.
May be this is what we need for treating cancer. We are
treating cancer patients with various chemotherapeutic agents since World War
II. We are using radiation and surgery for a long time and still we are taking the
survival rate as five years. We rarely talk about total cure from the disease.
Is it not painful? ,But now cure seems to be near!!
Before antibiotics, we were treating skin infections with
Sulphur, wounds with honey and syphilis with mercury. We were treating internal
infections with Sulphonamides. These were not effective enough and had lots of
side effects. Even the first antibiotic Penicillin had lot of side effects and
many patients had to suffer from severe reactions which even led to death at
times. Then science moved on and now we have safe and very effective
antibiotics and antibacterials to fight diseases.
It is accepted fact that body immunity plays vital role
in the fight against cancer and most of the chemotherapies and radiation
therapy reduce body immunity drastically. There are many scientifically proved
regimes which one must follow to improve immunity.
The scientists are working in various directions to find
out perfect treatment for cancer. Following are some of the latest treatments:-
1. Cancer
Detecting Bra
10. Micro-bubbles
activated by Ultrasound for killing cancer cells
13. Capturing cancer cells with magnets
14. Blocking Proliferation of Beta cells
in Leukemia
15. Interferon based drugs to cure breast cancer
16. Latest endoscopic techniques to detect pancreatic
cancer at very early stage.
The science has
very conclusively proved the usefulness of Vitamins like C and D in treatment
of Cancer. The cure for the disease is round the corner. We have managed to eradicate
Smallpox, and Leprosy. We have managed to cure Polio, TB, Typhoid and many
other dreadful diseases and very soon we will be having complete cure for
cancer.
