Makes you wonder why it isnt on the front page of the papers.

http://media.www.studentprintz.com/media/storage/paper974/news/2007/01/23/Opinion/Scientists.Cure.Cancer.But.No.One.Takes.Notice-2667600.shtml

I believe it

I currently have zero faith in the medical community

Where do I send the check to? I'll part with $50 immediatly, and more if/as needed. There's a limit between capitilism, and ethics.

Modern medicine doesn't like cures when other treatments are more profitable.

Here is another article with some more detail.

A graphic of the process.

Spare me, name one.

There are many ways to kill cancer but the patient dies as well.

i'll agree with you twitch.beings there is no patent,there is no insentive for the drug companies to get involved.there is little if any money to be made.if there was a patent on it, it would be the greatest thing since sliced cheese.and 3000 bucks a pill.

Things that make people money that do not own the patent.

Screws
Bolts
Telephones
TVs
Cars
and so on.

I think further research is needed prior to full corporate interest. They didnt get that powerful/rich by funding every supposed cure that comes down the pike. But if this turns out to be a viable treatment/cure, you better believe the huge drug companies will be all over it.

The artical is odviously ment to attract attention, I am sure there is a lot more to this story.

If this works it would be great;

My personal opinion on the fight against cancer; with out sounding insensitive is that it is one of the longest running scams to bilk citizens for their hard earned $$$$.
If you think about it; how many years has "science" supposedly been looking to find a cure for cancer?
30-40-50YRS??

How much money has been donated and collected by all these "fight cancer" charaties? MIllions or Billions....???

And in all these years and with all this funding wouldn't you think that "science" would have found their drug by now? YES . but if they tell us about it, they are all out of jobs. The whole industry..

IMHO, all the donations and collections to find a cure for cancer that individuals & businesses donate are only being used to support the "fight against cancer industry" that was created, so it can just stay in business.

It would be perfect if a simple unpatented drug like DCA could kill cancer cells; and at the same time not allow the crooked drug companies & scammer charities profit 1 penny from it.

"..I'll take a simple "C" to "G" and feel brand new about it..."

Here's one.

I'm passing this onto one of the surgeons here who's specialty is head and neck cancer and I'll get to you.

That's interesting, but it's just one article. I'd like to hear more about it.

I believe that there are a lot of people in medicine and in medical research that are motivated by more than just profit. Motivation to make a profit does not rule out other more altruistic motives, either.

Making a profit is not evil. Sometimes I get the impression from things I read here that a lot of folks see it that way.

I thought that was what Adkins diet does? Take out many of the carbs? Didn't patients develop renal problems?

All cells in the body continuously burn energy following glycolysis (Embden-Meyerhof) and the citric acid (Krebs) cycle. The citric acid cycle uses oxygen to efficiently break glucose into two, 3-carbon sugars and then completely oxidize the molecules into CO2 and H2O. It is why you have to pee-pee and exhale. It also takes more time to get energy and sometimes the body demands more energy than can be delivered. Fuel is demanded of the blood stream, glucose enters the cells and glycogen, a temporary storage molecule (fat is more permanent storage) is broken-down into glucose, replenishing the blood stream. Muscles that store lots of glycogen and have lots of mitochondria (in which the Krebs cycle mostly runs) is the dark meat while the muscles with less glycogen and less mitochondria are light meat. But the citric acid cycle can't keep-up, so the Embden-Meyerhof pathway cranks-up--glycolysis --> glyco - lysis --> sugar - breaking.

Embden-Meyerhof is very fast but has unfortunate bi-products and is much less energy efficient. The final products of Embden-Meyerhof is ethanol which in most animals is converted to lactic acid, which is safer for the tissue.

Embden-Meyerhof predominates the white muscle tissue, krebs predominates the dark muscle. White muscle is also called "fast-twitch" and dark is "slow-twitch." Sprinters are fast-twitch dominant, marathoners are slow-twitch dominant. Sprinters quickly build-up lactic acid and cramp-up if they continue. Marathoners maintain a steady pace that carefully avoids Embden-Meyerhof until approaching the finish line. The differences are mostly genetic, though through exercise a fast-twitch muscle will create more mitochondria, which quickly go away if exercise is not continued.
