Here is an excerpt from our book "Cancer is an Infectious Disease."
Introduction
The prevailing myth is that cancer is somehow different when compared to the other common chronic diseases of modern society. That myth perpetuates the notion that one must wait for a tumor to be detected, at which point, your options are limited to those that destroy the tumor. Hopefully, you will survive both cancer and the treatment but the statistics of either occurring are usually not very favorable.
New advances in the earlier detection of tumors and other forms of cancer appear to provide better survival outcomes. However, since cancer remission is defined as 5-year survival, detecting cancer earlier starts the clock on the 5-year time frame sooner. What looks like better outcomes is not necessarily so.
New labs are now available for circulating tumor and cancer cells. These are important tests for early detection, but they do not change the treatment paradigm. Instead, they hasten the harmful slash, burn, and poison treatment approach. Improvement in outcomes is almost always realized with earlier detection. However, when the treatment is harmful, this is not always the case, as the treatment for cancer is frequently worse than the disease.
The real answer to cancer outcomes is to evaluate and correct the root causes of the disease, and this is no different compared to any other debilitating and deadly chronic condition. Louis Pasteur and Claude Bernard, both medical giants of the 19th Century, best forwarded this approach. Pasteur is famous for many discoveries and is noted as an author of the germ theory of disease (infection). Claude Bernard, less well-known but arguably more important than Pasteur, coined the term "milieu Intérieur," also known as homeostasis or internal terrain.
It is believed that Pasteur, on his deathbed, said, "Bernard is right; the seed is nothing, the soil is everything." What is the soil? It is your immune system: innate, adaptive, barrier, and all other aspects of immunity. This book clearly shows that cancer risk and status can be measured using a broad range of blood-based biomarkers. Importantly, cancer, like every other chronic disease, smolders before erupting in fire (tumor or blood cancer). The biomarkers that help clarify this process are all modifiable. In the hands of a skilled practitioner, you can lower the biomarkers and improve your odds against the disease.
You can take control over cancer, your cancer risk, and your cancer prognosis. It is a matter of performing the right tests and interpreting the results from a chronic perspective, not an acute one. With that knowledge in hand, many who are suffering and dying from cancer may be able to avoid these disastrous consequences.
Do not listen to the pundits. Be proactive. You cannot wait for a diagnosis of cancer. You must act now to measure your risks. The standard of care will not help you. You must seek medical providers who understand the chronic disease process and can provide you with a path to improve your overall health and likely reduce your risk of cancer while improving your prognosis if afflicted with the disease.
