While people usually don’t have any immediate problems from such radiation, exposure ARE E-CIGARETTES SAFER THAN REGULAR CIGARETTES? Unfortunately, many people, including teenagers, are under the impression that e-cigarettes are safe or that they are effective in helping people quit smoking regular cigarettes. Neither of these assumptions has yet been proven.

DRUGS TO AVOID FOR WOMEN TAKING TAMOXIFEN The female hormone estrogen makes most cancer tumor cells grow and multiply. The drug tamoxifen was developed to block estrogen and therefore stop that growth, to help treat, prevent, and stop the recurrence of most breast cancer. Breast cancer that is sensitive to estrogen is called “estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer.” RADIATION THERAPY FOR DUCTAL CARCINOMA IN SITU (DCIS In recent years, ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) has become one of the most commonly diagnosed breast conditions. It is often referred to as “stage zero breast cancer” or a “pre-cancer.” It is a non-invasive breast condition that is usually diagnosed on a mammogram when it is so small that it has not formed a lump. In DCIS, some of the cells lining the ducts (the parts of the breast HORMONAL THERAPY FOR DUCTAL CARCINOMA IN SITU (DCISSEE MORE ONSTOPCANCERFUND.ORG
SURGERY AFTER LUMPECTOMY: IS IT POSSIBLE TO GET ALL THEBREAST AFTER LUMPECTOMY SURGERYIS RADIATION NECESSARY AFTER LUMPECTOMYLUMPECTOMY AFTER CARELUMPECTOMY PICTURES BEFORE AND AFTER Lumpectomy, or partial mastectomy, is the most common surgery for invasive breast cancer. It is performed in 60-75% of new breast cancer cases each year LUNG CANCER AND AFRICAN AMERICANS ARE E-CIGARETTES SAFER THAN REGULAR CIGARETTES? Unfortunately, many people, including teenagers, are under the impression that e-cigarettes are safe or that they are effective in helping people quit smoking regular cigarettes. Neither of these assumptions has yet been proven. Studies by the FDA show that e-cigarettes contain some of the same toxic chemicals as regular cigarettes, even though DO LEMONS PREVENT CANCER?SEE MORE ON STOPCANCERFUND.ORG HOME - CANCER PREVENTION AND TREATMENT FUND Designated one of America's best charities by Independent Charities of America, The Cancer Prevention and Treatment Fund helps to reduce your risk of getting all kinds of cancer, and assists in choosing the best, most affordable cancer treatments based on the most recent research.PATIENT BOOKLETS
The DCIS patient booklet is the only free booklet that is specifically for women who have been diagnosed with DCIS (ductal carcinoma in situ). It helps women and their family members understand that DCIS is much less dangerous than breast cancer. It also provides the information they need to make the treatment choices that are best forthem.
DIETARY SUPPLEMENTS BEFORE AND DURING The researchers also looked at antioxidant supplements, which include vitamins A, C, and E. They found that patients taking these supplements both before and during chemotherapy had a 41% higher chance of cancer returning after treatment. However, this finding was not “statistically significant,” which means that more research isneeded to
EATING HABITS THAT IMPROVE HEALTH AND LOWER BODY MASS Aim for at least five servings of fruits and vegetables a day. Usually, the more colorful the fruit or vegetable, the more nutritious. For example, dark green spinach has more nutrients than light green iceberg lettuce. Try and choose whole grain cereal, pasta,rice, and bread.
CHEMOTHERAPY: WHAT IS IT AND HOW IS IT USED? Chemotherapy is one of the most common cancer treatments used today. However, 1 in 4 patients receiving chemotherapy do not understand why they’re getting it and how it’s supposed to help them. Chemotherapy is a cancer treatment that uses one or more drugs to kill cancer cells. It stops or slows the growth of cancer cells, which OVARIAN CANCER: WHO SHOULD BE CONCERNED AND WHAT CAN THEY DO? Prianka Waghray and Laura Gottschalk, PhD. Ovarian cancer is the fifth leading cause of cancer death in women in the U.S. 1 Most women who are diagnosed with cancer of the ovaries are at least 55 years old. When women are treated before the cancer has spread, 9 CAN SLEEPING PILLS CAUSE CANCER? That could explain the increased risk of cancer. Also, a study published in the Korean Journal of Family Medicine in 2018 found that sleeping pills were strongly associated with esophageal, kidney, prostate, liver, stomach and pancreatic cancers. Of all the sleeping pills in the study, Ambien most strongly predicted a diagnosis ofcancer.
DO LEMONS PREVENT CANCER? The bottom line. Although lemons have health benefits, the claims that “lemons are a proven remedy against cancer of all types” and “lemons are 10,000 times stronger than chemotherapy” are certainly false. Furthermore, while a few studies have looked into the anti-carcinogenic properties of modified citrus pectin and limonoidsand found
CAUTION: CHILDREN AT PLAY ON POTENTIALLY TOXIC SURFACES Out of the 32 playgrounds surfaced in recycled tires that the researchers in California looked at, only 10 met that state’s 2007 standard for “head impact safety” to reduce brain injury and other serious harm in children who fall while playing. In contrast, all fivesurfaces made of
WHEN SHOULD WOMEN START REGULAR MAMMOGRAMS? 40? 50? AND In recent years, there has been a growing concern that annual mammograms starting at age 40 may do more harm than good for many women. That is why the U.S. Preventative Services Task Force, an expert group that reviews the latest research findings, recommends that mammography screening for most women start at age 50 rather than 40, and that the frequency be every two years (instead ofOr CFC #11967
