Effects Of Lung Cancer page covers the causes, signs, symptoms and treatment, along with what you can do to fight this cancer.

Effects Of Lung Cancer

Causes of Lung Cancer:

Smoking, air pollution, breathing radon or asbestos, or exposure to chest radiation have all been linked to increased incidence of lung cancers.   It's also pretty well documented that being overweight, lack of exercise and improper nutrition weaken your immune system and make you more likely to get cancer.  Here are some of the latest Lung Cancer Books.

Effects, Signs And Symptoms of Lung Cancer:

Though there are several different types of lung cancer, symptoms and effects are fairly similar, including persistent cough, wheezing, chest discomfort, coughing up small amounts of blood, hoarseness, fatigue, unexplained weight loss and loss of appetite.

Treatment of Lung Cancer:

Unfortunately, for most patients with lung cancer, current treatments do not cure the disease.  This said, for some types, especially at early stages and with people who are otherwise healthy, lung cancer development can be significantly slowed using combinations of surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy and others.

What You Can Do About Lung Cancer:

If you've been diagnosed with a malignant Cancer, always retest and get a second opinion from another doctor.  Once confirmed, work with your doctor to make sure nothing you do interferes with the medical treatment.  Get the specific diagnosis in writing, including the name and stage of the Cancer.  Search the National Cancer Institute and other websites to learn all that's being done for your cancer.  Print relevant pages and make a list of specific questions for your doctor.  Write down his answers and check them on the web. I know the doctor has a good education, but this is your health and your life.  The actions to help prevent Cancer below can often be used in stronger doses to fight cancer, but check with your doctor.

To help prevent Cancer:  If your family or lifestyle (see causes, above) puts you at a higher risk, you should consider these things essential to help prevent Cancer:  Follow a low fat diet with lots of fresh fruits and vegetables.  Fill your life with aerobic activity and exercise.  Make sure you're drinking enough water.  Supplement your diet with natural Multi-Vitamins and Multi-Minerals, along with extra doses of the following to strengthen your immune system:

Antioxidants; including Beta Carotene, Flavonoids, LycopeneVitamin A, Zinc, Vitamin E, Vitamin C and CoQ10.
Organic Germanium; 300-450mg divided into 3 doses a day.

Complete Healing:

Cancer is at best frightening, frustrating and painful...at worst, 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 Healing From God.
