Cancer is most simply defined as cells growing out of control. When this growth is not threatening in any way, it's called benign. When the growth of a type of cancer presents a danger, it's called malignant. The extent to which a malignant cancer has grown is measured using stages of cancer from stage 0 (least damage) to stage 4 (most damage). These stages also serve to help determine what treatments will be most effective in fighting the cancer. Here are some of the top-selling books on cancer facts and treatment.
For the purposes of www.e-health-fitness.com we will not get into the scientific names of cancers (carcinoma, sarcoma, etc.). We'll also avoid the scientific names for the stages of cancer growth (in situ, metastatic, etc.). While these classifications of different cancers are useful to determine cancer treatments by health care professionals, they just confuse us regular folk. Instead, the different cancers we're referring to are more commonly identified by body parts (breast, bone, etc.). When a cancer is commonly known by it's scientific name (melanoma, leukemia, etc.) we'll use that name. If you're discussing a specific diagnosis of cancer with your doctor, get the exact scientific name, stage and body system(s) it was found in (in writing) for more detailed research. Here are links to our pages on the causes, signs, symptoms, treatment and self help steps to fight the different cancer types:

Health conditions can be frustrating and painful...sometimes even fatal. We both know there are no guaranteed cures or quick fixes, whether medicine, nutrition, herbs or anything else. Many illnesses are "incurable" from the medical standpoint. Complete healing is possible...including mind, body and spirit...from God. If you want God's help with this or any problem, go to Help From God.
