Fontana research associate professor of medicine at Washington University and an investigator at the Istituto Superiore di Sanità in Rome, Italy. and his co-authors write about how cutting calorie intake between 10 percent and 50 percent decreases the activity of pathways involving insulin-like growth factor (IGF-1), glucose and TOR [...]

The human immune system is a very complex system build up of numerous functional parts. To understand how the immune system works it is essential to know the functional parts and their rolle in the system therefore we will list you the functional parts and what rolle they play [...]

A new research by American Cancer Society scientists says new information displaying aspirin’s potential role in decreasing the risk of cancer death bring us considerably closer to the time when cancer prevention can be included in clinical guidelines for the use of aspirin in preventative care. The review, released  [...]

Scientists have made a key discovery in understanding why tumours may go undetected by the immune system. They remain untreated by the body's own natural defences and therefor can cause tumors to expand. The findings could lead to new treatments for tumors. Under normal circumstances, the immune system creates [...]

Cancers may be wounds that never heal, suggest the first live images of tumors forming. It looks like that cancer cells may be considered lesions that never cure according to the first live images of tumor forming. Seems that individual cancer cells are sending identical distress signals as wounds [...]

In essence energy arrives from the Sun, but humans are unable to convert it directly to run metabolic processes. Therefore, we depend on photosynthesis to convert solar energy into chemical storage (in the form of carbohydrate). Through catabolic metabolism, carbohydrate is converted into the energy currency of ATP, it [...]

Medicinal mushrooms as a source of anti-tumor and immunomodulating polysaccharides. By the term "mushrooms", we generally mean the definition of Chang and Miles (1992) "A macrofungus with a distinctive fruiting body which can be either hypogeous or epigeous, large enough to be seen with the naked eye and to [...]

Laboratory tests of blood and urine can picture and evaluate the health status of any individual. There are many reasons which can lead to results outside of the "normal range". These results can help you detect potential problems. Blood test results RBC - erythrocytes (red blood cells) which carry [...]

In research to be published in the Journal of Biological Chemistry, Dr Cornelia de Moor of The University of Nottingham and her team have investigated a drug called cordycepin, which was originally extracted from a rare kind of wild mushroom called cordyceps and is now prepared from a cultivated [...]

Nearly 30 years after Nobel laureate Linus Pauling famously and controversially suggested that vitamin C supplements can prevent cancer (NOTE: He stated Intravenous Vitamin C in HIGH Doses can also be used as a chemotherapeutic agent for cancer patients), a team of Johns Hopkins scientists have shown that in [...]

Do you know how much are ANTI-AGING and IMMUNITY connected? How to stay young and never be ill again? In order to look young and well kept as long as possible, live a long life without disease, it is necessary to learn how to prevent and completely change the [...]

Cancer is the second most common cause of premature death worldwide and 5 million new cases are diagnosed  each year in Europe and USA alone. Articles  published in the Lancet and the Lancet Oncology show that aspirin, taken daily, may prevent cancer, and could even treat certain cancers. Overall [...]

The ability to anticipate future events allows us to plan and exert control over our lives, but it may also contribute to stress-related increased risk for the diseases of aging. The psychologists found that those most threatened by the anticipation of stressful tasks in every segment of daily life,  [...]

It is important to maintain both your good health and your body's balance. Each time we get sick, a potential vulnerable spot may open in our body's defenses. Over time cell mediated immunity may become inadequate or malfunction. This could allow multiple genetic mutations in the same location (malignant [...]

Analytical testing recently completed by the chemists at Integrated Biomolecule Inc. of Tucson, Arizona, has revealed some very startling news. The cultivated Cordyceps produced by Aloha Medicinals has more than four times the nucleoside content, and nearly five times more of the total active ingredients than the wild collected [...]

The single most important thing you may ever read on cancer treatment. What is the origin of cancer? The Ancient Greek, 'Father of Medicine' Hippocrates, used the Greek words, carcinos and carcinoma to describe (cancerous) tumors, thus making him the first person, historically, to bestow the disease with the [...]
