Cancer Treatments How to Prevent Catabolic WastingMajor New breakthrough understanding If one were to choose the option of Chemo or
Radiation there are things to be done that can eliminate the damage they do to
good cells, speed repair, and eliminate all the waste produced as a result of
the death of cells. TNF-alpha and low albumin had for years been implicated in wasting, but the connection between the two was a mystery. Drs. Buck and Chojkier showed that TNF alpha causes oxidative stress in the liver cell and boosts the production of the free-radical gas nitric oxide. It also causes the addition of a phosphorous molecule to a protein called C/EBP beta, which normally joins DNA in the nucleus of the cell to make other proteins, such as albumin. Central to the researchers' finding was that this extra phosphorous causes the C/EBP beta to shuttle out of the nucleus into the cytoplasm (the cell's external membrane), where transcription from the albumin gene can no longer take place. The researchers found several ways of stopping the downward spiral caused by TNF- alpha. One way was to treat TNF-alpha-enhanced mice with vitamin E and other antioxidants. This blocked the chain of events leading to the "nuclear export" of C/EBP beta. According to Dr. Chojkier, a gastroenterologist and liver specialist, antioxidants such as vitamin E might halt wasting in humans if these supplements were delivered in very high amounts-or even better, if they were targeted to the liver. "One solution will be to find a liver-specific antioxidant," he said. "With the technology we have today, this is very feasible. We believe this will provide an exciting avenue for intervention." Catabolic wasting, or cachexia (ka-kek'-sia), breaks down body tissue, regardless of how much nutrition the patient absorbs. "It's like a car that burns too much fuel," said Dr. Chojkier. The condition affects about half of all patients with cancer and AIDS and also affects patients with bacterial and parasitic diseases, rheumatoid arthritis, and chronic diseases of the bowel, liver, lungs and heart. Infusions of albumin are occasionally used to treat the condition, but the treatment is expensive, complicated, and only suitable for certain patients. In addition there is a problem with the loss of appetite. Now not eating can be a good thing sometimes because the body will then eat unhealthy cells. On the other hand nutrition is needed for the body. I don't know how much cancer has to do with it, and even chemo other than it can affect your taste bids, but I do know pain killers especially oxycontin kill they appetite and this is not a good thing as well as cause the patient to lose their mental acuity. The last thing you want to do is feed cancer sugar, it makes it grow, hospital diets are notorious for excessive sugar by the way. Pain killers can contribute to your death. In fact by covering up the pain signals you could be stopping a natural
response to them.
In which case if you are terminal, they should not object to any alternative treatment you would like to try. Since you're going to die anyway what type of person or group would ever deprive you of cannabis to help you feel better, and perhaps save your life by increasing your appetite? Just remember when choosing an oncologists their beliefs have an affect on your success, so ask them abut them first. A good one would not have any beliefs they would talk simply about possibility and probability and their knowing and if they know about adjuvant treatments the probability of your success is higher. Remember there is no actual medical authority, it is an opinion based industry which really is another way of saying they don't know how the body really works, and some of it is pseudo science resulting from a desire for profit, exceptions noted. Much of the medical science is pseudo science as a result of the politicization of science with the guiding intention of profit increased by monopoly.
