In today's advanced world , we still have not found a cure for cancer. Do you think man will discover a cure for cancer in the future?

Yes, there is no cure for cancer. But there are solutions for cancer. Just understand how cancer develops. It's a problem with normal cells becoming abnormal and damaging the normal ones. The solution is, prevention. Prevention is better than cure. Don't you know that if you eat lots of fruits and vegetables, you are far from having cancer problem? Now, on the other side, if you eat lots of meat and processed foods filled with chemicals, the cancer cells in your body are always happy and nourished. Last, researches show there are natural food supplements capable of strengthening our immune system so it can fight cancer cells. Just search the Internet and you will discover lots of them! You can find many of these natural food supplements sold through network marketing.

I'd like to add: The best doctor for cancer is our body. Our body can heal itself. It has a natural healing ability that when nourished properly, it can fight even serious health threats like cancer and HIV. And one of the most important component of our body's healing power is our positive mental attitude. If you believe you can survive cancer, you can!

yes,that's a nice reply. But it has been seen that cancer can affect even healthy people.You never know when a you come in contact with a carcinogen,etc.Even though we lead a healthy lifestyle nobody can guarantee that we won't get cancer.It might reduce the chances but that's it.Once we get affected only a cure can save us.

yes, there's a cure for cancer. the problem here is what's the stage of the cancer, it only becomes incurable when it already reaches the other organs in the body or in medical term 'metastasis.' the better cure is prevention, and early diagnosis, so that you can already intervene at an early stage

Hi sskelvin! Cancer may be horrible but it is not something from outer space. As it originates from here I'm pretty sure that we will find a cure. With the advancement in science and health technologies and as long as we continue to work very hard some cancers may be a thing of the past. But what is worrying is the fact that new diseases or new forms of cancer may come into the picture. While there are funds for cancer research. A part should also go into into public education on ways to avoid cancer. The law should be strict and tighter enough to ban products with potential cancer-causing agents to be banned from entering markets and the firms and companies which produce them to stop production.

prevention is always better than cure... live a healthy life and be stress free.. almost anything could cause cancer. but for me, if ever i would have cancer, i would go for natural treatment. there's no side efefcts unlike having chemotherapy when you get alot of side effects that could even make you weaker since its your immune system that get hits instantly. natural remedies like eating vegetables, fresh fruits, drinking lots of water could help strengthen your healthy cells left. and you wouldnt have to suffer the consequences of having those side efefcts of chemotherapy and radiation or surgery.. also, being positive with life, trusting God and strengething your faith will also help. thinking that cancer isnt a problem but a challenge to fight.

hi sskelvin.. yes of course, with the advance technology nowadays i think it's not that far in finding a cure for cancer.. for now we have ways in treating cancer, like chemotherapy and other lazer treatments. so i came to think that maybe its just some years for scientist to develop a cure for cancer, have a nice day.. zedrick_11
