Receiving a cancer diagnosis can be overwhelming to say the least. If you or a loved one has recently experienced this, we know you probably have many unanswered questions. It’s our goal to clarify your understanding of cancer and assist you in making an informed decision about your treatment options.
What is Cancer?
To understand cancer, you must first understand what cancer is not. Cancer is not a death sentence. Fear, anxiety, anger, and helplessness are all natural reactions when processing a cancer diagnosis. However, allowing these emotions to overcome you is counterproductive to the healing process.
At Hope4Cancer, our goal is not to help you wage a destructive war against cancer. Instead, we help you rediscover the lost synergy of mind, body, and spirit as they work in tandem to heal you. All we ask from you is hope; do not dwell on what has happened, but rather embrace what you are about to do.

What Causes Cancer?
To take a lesson from scripture, “Know thy self, know thy enemy.” To overcome cancer, you also must understand how your body works and how cancer works.
We all get cancer, every day.
Our cells constantly deal with stressors that cause genetic damage. It only takes one altered cell to potentially grow into cancer.
Weakened body defenses lead to cancer.
A healthy immune system protects us from altered cells by identifying and killing them before they become a threat. A weak immune system, on the other hand, allows cancer the time it needs to entrench itself and start multiplying.
Cancer is an evasive escape artist.
Even when the immune system is reasonably healthy, cancer can sometimes find a way to slip past our body’s roaming immune system sentinels.
Cancer does not happen overnight.
Poor nutrition, over eating, lack of exercise, stress, inadequate sleep, exposure to environmental toxins, and emotionally traumatic episodes are all daily stressors that take a toll on our body’s resources. Over time, these can overwhelm the immune system and impair functioning.
Cancer grows from stem cells.
You can trace every cell in your body, including cancer cells, back to an extremely powerful cell called a stem cell. Stem cells have the genetic ability to multiply and transform into any kind of cell, making them very difficult to identify and kill. This is why chemotherapy and radiation often result in recurrence. Although these methods destroy a sizable tumor mass, studies estimate 1 in every 100 tumor cells is a stem cell that can easily survive and spread.
Healthy cells make up a large part of tumors.
Malignant cancer cells are experts at “recruiting” surrounding healthy cells. They are not solely dependent on cell division among their own kind for growth. This allows tumors to develop much faster and makes them harder to target.
Cancer cells create environments unfavorable to healthy cells.
Cancer cells absorb sugar and other nutrients 10 times faster than healthy cells, outcompeting them. They also resort to a primitive form of food metabolism, creating an acidic environment and making them resistant to the natural process of cell death.
Understanding these basic roots and behaviors of cancer empowers you as a patient. Although we can’t reverse the clock on what has happened, by changing a few key habits we can restore your body’s environment to favor health and well-being.
