In the current
era of modern life, it increasingly alarming cancer. This disease affects many
more, often causing death, and treatment is often still a question mark.
Actually, cancer is a disease caused by the growth of tissue cells are not normal. Cancer cells will grow rapidly, uncontrollable, and will continue to divide, then infiltrate the surrounding tissues (invasive) and continues to spread through the connective tissue, blood, and attack vital organs and spinal cord. Under normal circumstances, the cells will divide only if there is replacement of cells that have died and broken. Instead cancer cells will divide continues even if the body does not need it, so will the accumulation of new cells are called malignant tumors.
Stacking cells are urgent and damage normal tissue, thereby disrupting the organs they occupy. Cancer can occur in various tissues in various organs in each body, from feet to head. When cancer occurs on the surface of the body, it would be easily detected and treated. But if there is in the body, the cancer will be difficult to know and sometimes have no symptoms. If symptoms occur, they usually have an advanced stage that it is difficult to treat.

Some
factors that cause cancer
Cause of cancer is usually not known with certainty because the causes of cancer can be a combination of a set of factors from genetic and environmental. But there are several factors thought to increase cancer risk, as follows:
Cause of cancer is usually not known with certainty because the causes of cancer can be a combination of a set of factors from genetic and environmental. But there are several factors thought to increase cancer risk, as follows:
• Heredity
The type of cancer is likely inherited in families of breast cancer, ovarian cancer, skin cancer and colon cancer.
• Environmental Factors
- Cigarette smoking increases the risk of lung cancer - lung, mouth, larynx (vocal cords), and bladder.
- Ultraviolet light from the sun
- Ionizing radiation (which is carcinogenic) is used in x-ray beam generated from nuclear power plants and atomic bombs that can reach very long distances.
• Factors foods that contain chemicals.
Food also can be another important risk factor causes cancer, especially cancers of the digestive tract. Examples of foods that can cause cancer are:
- Smoked and pickled foods (in pickled form) increases the risk of gastric cancer
- Drinks that contain alcohol cause higher risk for esophageal cancer.
- Substance of food coloring
- Heavy metals such as mercury are often found in contaminated seafood such as shellfish, fish, etc..
- A variety of foods (sweet, flour) are processed in excess.
• Virus
And suspected a virus that can cause cancer, among others:
- Papilloma virus causes genital warts (genital) presumably is one of the causes of cervical cancer in women.
- Cytomegalovirus causes Kaposi's sarcoma (cancer of the blood vessel system is characterized by red skin lesions)
- Hepatitis B virus can cause liver cancer.
- Epstein - Bar (in Africa) causes Burkitt's lymphoma, whereas in China this virus causes cancer of the nose and throat. This occurs because of environmental and genetic factors.
- Retro Virus in humans such as the HIV virus causes lymphomas and other blood cancers.
• Infection
- The parasite Schistosoma (bilharzia) may cause bladder cancer due to chronic irritation of the bladder. However, other chronic irritants do not cause cancer.
- Infection Clonorchis that causes cancer of the pancreas and biliary tract.
- Helicobacter pylori is a bacterium that may be the cause of stomach cancer, and these bacteria suspected to cause injury and chronic inflammation of the stomach so as to increase the speed of the cell cycle.
• behavioral factors
- The behavior in question is smoking and eating foods that contain lots of fat and cured meats are also drinkers of alcoholic beverages.
- Behavior that is sexual intercourse early age and frequently changing sexual partners.
• Disruption of hormonal balance
Function of the hormone estrogen stimulates the growth of cells which tend to encourage the occurrence of cancer, while progesterone protects the occurrence of excessive cell growth. - There is a tendency that an excess of hormones estrogen and progesterone deficiency leading to increased risk of breast cancer, cervical cancer, uterine cancer and cancer of the prostate and testicles in men.
• Psychological factors, emotional
- Stress can cause severe disruption to the company the balance of the body cell. Constant state of tension which can affect the cells, where cells become hyperactive and the changing nature of malignant cancer causing.
• Free radicals
- Free radicals are an atom, group of atoms, or molecules that have unpaired electrons that are free dilingkaran outside. Source - the source of free radicals which are:
A. Free radicals are formed as byproducts of metabolic processes.
2. Free radicals enter the body in the form of chemical toxins from food, drinks, polluted air, and ultraviolet rays from the sun.
3. Excessive production of free radicals on overeat when we (have an impact on the metabolic processes), or when we are in a state of excessive stress, whether physical stress, psychological, and biological.
Cancer Treatment
1.Treatment with Chemotherapy
The working principle of this treatment is to poison or kill cells - cancer cells, controlling the growth of cancer cells and stop its growth so as not to spread or to relieve symptoms caused by cancer. Chemotherapy is sometimes the first option for dealing with cancer. Chemotherapy is a systematic, in contrast with radiation or surgery that is local, so chemotherapy can reach cancer cells that may have spread and spread to other parts of the body. The use of chemotherapy is different in each patient, sometimes as a primary treatment, in other cases before or after surgery and radiation. The success rate of chemotherapy also varies by type of cancer. Chemotherapy is usually done in hospitals, private clinics, doctors' offices, operating rooms (although rare) and also at home (by the nurse, the patient himself, or other family members).
Side effects of chemotherapy is a decrease in the number of blood cells (will be back to normal about a week later), infection (characterized by hot, sore throat, burning sensation when urinating, chills and flushing wounds, swelling, and warmth), anemia, bleeding such as nosebleeds, hair loss, sometimes there are complaints such as itching and dry skin, nausea and vomiting, dehydration and low blood pressure, constipation / constipation, diarrhea, nervous system disorders.
- Treatment with Radiation Therapy (Radiation)
Radiation therapy is usually done before or after surgery to shrink the tumor. Radiation is performed in an attempt to destroy the tissues that have been affected by cancer.
Radiation side effects are nausea and vomiting, decreased number of white blood cells, infection / inflammation, skin reactions such as sunburn, fatigue, pain in the mouth and throat, diarrhea and can lead to baldness.
- Treatment with surgery
Surgery is the treatment of cancer of the oldest. Some cancers are often curable with surgery only if done at an early stage.
- Treatment with combination therapy
For some cancers, the best treatment is a combination of surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy. Surgery or radiation to treat cancer that land is limited, whereas chemotherapy aims to kill cancer cells that are beyond the reach of surgery or radiation. Sometimes radiation or chemotherapy before surgery to reduce the size of the tumor or after surgery to destroy remaining cancer cells that may remain.
2. Herbal Medicine
Herbal treatment is a treatment using a variety of extracts from plants (medicinal plants), for example, extracts from taro mice (Extract Typhonium Flagelliforme) combined with other natural materials are processed in a modern, which can help blood and tissue detoxification stimulates the immune system bodies to work together to eradicate cancer cells. Herbal treatment is an alternative treatment that has been widely proven efficacy than treatment performed in a modern / conventional.
The use of herbs to treat cancer do not appear out of nowhere. There are several approaches to the treatment of the underlying raw material, namely follows:
1. The concept of research that cancer is reversible (can be normal again)
2. The concept of inhibiting cancer growth. Cancer grows because of environmental carcinogens and genetic mutations that support growth. If the environmental carcinogens and the disabled, cancer growth is inhibited.
3. The concept of cancer cell aging. If growth is inhibited, the cancer cell does not have a chance to grow, then age and die.
4. Reinforce the concept of other cells around the cancer. Developing cancer by attacking cells that are nearby, so that by strengthening the surrounding healthy cells will form the cell's defense can hold the cancer cells.
