Breakthroughs In Cancer Treatment
On September 20, 2009, Parade Magazine ran a story about dramatic breakthroughs in cancer treatment, by Dr. Francis S. Collins, director of the National Institutes of Health.
There are environmental issues that are at the root of some cancers. For example, 90 % of lung cancer deaths are caused by smoking. For other forms of cancer, the causes are not so clear.
Scientists now know, according to Dr. Collins, that cancer is a disease of DNA. Smoking causes mutations of the DNA and when mutations occur, a normal cell grows out of control and spreads.
Not all mutations are caused by environmental issues. Some cells do not replicate the exact DNA when dividing, thus causing what is called a “typo.” If the “typo” continues to be replicated wrong, cancer can develop.
These “typos” can randomly occur or can be inherited. There are numerous ways a cell can go wrong.
Physicians are starting to use the knowledge that cancer is a disease of DNA to look at a person’s DNA and their family history to predict their risk factors. If cancer is caught early enough, it is usually treatable.
There are powerful new drugs being developed. But what if there was a natural substance or a product that would protect and repair DNA, would that be of interest to these scientists? What about you?
In laboratory studies, Vivix Cellular Anti-Aging Tonic ingredients have been shown to impact the four mechanisms of cellular aging.* One of those mechanisms is DNA damage.
Everyday, every cell in the body is being bombarded by DNA-damaging assaults. These assaults can damage the DNA and cause a “typo.” Vivix ingredients help protect and repair cellular DNA.*
