Lymph Nodes Cancer

Lymph node cancer or lymphoma is a cancer that accounts for approximately five percent of all cancers. It predominantly effects males but is not exclusive to men. Those most at risk are between the ages of fifteen and thirty four and those over the age of fifty-four. This does not mean that anyone outside of this age range is not at risk but statistically it does seem to fall inside those age groups at a greater rate. Like all other cancers, early detection and treatment is the key to a greater chance of recovery.

Hodgkins Disease is a form of lymph node cancer but is rare in its occurrence. It also statistically effects mostly men between the ages of fifteen and thirty-four and men over the age of fifty-four but is not exclusive to men only. Some of the most common symptoms of Hodgkins Disease are night sweats, unexplained wight loss, constant fatigue and unexplained fever. If you are experiencing any or all of these symptoms it is wise to have yourself examined by a doctor as these also could be the symptoms of another disorder.

All other remaining types of lymph node cancer are known as non-Hodgkins lymphoma. The majority of lymph node cancers treated are of the non-Hodgkins type. The symptoms of non-Hodgkins lymphoma are the same as Hodgkins Disease. Night sweats, unexplained fever, chronic fatigue and unexplained weight loss.Lymph node cancer is also known as lymphatic cancer. Those with a family history of lymph node cancer statistically fall within a higher risk group of contracting the disease. This is true for both men and women.

Lymph node cancer is a type of cancer that involves the lymphatic system. The lymphatic system is an integral part of the bodies immune system. Statistically, the occurrence of lymph node cancer has increased approximately seventy-five percent since nineteen-seventy-three in the United States. Research has revealed that approximately one in fifty-two men and one in sixty-one women in the United States will contract non Hodgkin lymphoma within their lifetime. Studies have indicated that a greater exposure to herbicides and pesticides is greatly responsible for this increase.

Lymph node cancer is curable and if detected early and with effective treatment a person with lymph node cancer has a greater chance than ever before of being cured of this disease and if cured can expect to live a long and normal life. Many new and innovative treatments for lymph node cancer have been developed and are now available. The medical community has a greater understanding of lymph node cancer than in years past. Treatments that were once experimental and have been found to be effective are now being used to treat and cure lymph node cancer.

As a person ages it is to be expected that he or she will encounter medical challenges, it is part of the aging process. Lymph node cancer might be one of those challenges you encounter in your life's journey. How soundly these challenges are defeated depends greatly on how you approach them. A fighting spirit has been proven time and again to be a powerful weapon to have in your arsenal when battling cancers of all types. Accepting defeat in any challenge almost guarantees defeat. The will to fight and live on has carried so many cancer survivors to victory over the disease.

Cancer symptoms to watch out for on your dog

Unusual lumps or swellings that appear all of a sudden, a biopsy is required to confirm if it is cancerous. Open wound and skin related problems that don't go away, skin cancer form because of reaction to allergies, exposure to certain chemicals and UV rays from the sun from being exposed in the sun for too long periods. Prostrate cancer can also be found with older dogs, common symptoms are hard to see but dogs tend to have problems urinating and defecating. Often bloody urine and stools can be seen. Stomach, liver and kidney cancer are more popular with dogs. They tend to stop eating and drink a lot of water all of a sudden. Occasionally they will start eating grass and certain plants. Rapid weight loss is very common, along with chronic diarrhea. Bone cancer known as osteosarcoma which is a common long bone tumour, is often diagnosed with symptoms like arthritis and muscle pains. When you dog starts behaving out of the ordinarily, take note and investigate what the problem might be.
So what is the most common cause for all these cancer diseases?

If you look all the ingredients on a cigarette pack, it's no wonder why smokers suffer from lung cancer and other deadly associated diseases.

Same applies here, if you look at the ingredients in commercial dog food products, it is unbelievable what passes for nutrition for dogs. The cheaper the food, the worse the ingredients get. Most commercial food is loaded with all sorts of toxic chemicals and preservatives.

There are traces of Sodium Pentobarbital found in some commercial food. This is the same chemical used to euthanize animals. It is present because the meat in the food they use is processed meat which is made from dead animals or euthanized animals.

Dog food manufactures also use the chemical ethoxyguin (EQ) to preserve the dog food and give it a longer shelf life. This chemical is not allowed in human food, care to guess why? The chemicals and preservatives in commercial dog food is not fit for consumption.

If you think about all the common illnesses and problems dogs have, you realize that they are common symptoms that humans have when we are poisoned by chemicals.

Some illnesses like Kidney cancer, bladder cancer, stomach cancer, hair loss, chronic diarrhea and other major organ failure is directly related to these chemicals and ingredients used. Dog food is simply not regulated.

The only true way to prevent your dog from getting ill or getting cancer in the long term from harmful dog foods, is to make the dog food your self. Your dog could live nearly twice as long if you do this. They are easy simple methods of making home made dog food. The best way is to make dog food in bulk and to freeze it for later use in the week. If you follow the recommended recipes your dog will get al the protein, vitamins and minerals without much effort.

Pet Food You Buy Causes Cancer & Liver Failure in Your Dog - The Shocking Truth of Dog Food Death!

Do you know what it's like to take your pet, your family member to the vet and to be told that she has Cancer AND Liver Failure and that the best thing they can do is to kill her painlessly there and then? Choking back the tears so you can drive home and explain to your children why their beloved friend isn't there anymore?

I do. And because I know that pain I was infuriated when I learnt that it wasn't just a tragic accident. No, the pet companies are putting lethal illness causing products in our pets food because it's cheaper and gives them a higher profit margin!

Dog Food

Think about it. More and more pets seem to start to be diagnosed with human sounding fatal and painful diseases:

Stomach Cancer, Chronic Diarrhea, Hair Loss, Major Organ Failure, Bladder Cancer, Immune System Collapse, Kidney Cancer, Birth Defects, Behaviour Problems, Skin Cancer, Liver Dysfunction, Leukemia, Spleen Cancer, Blindness and Severe Allergic Reactions.

Coincidence?

No. I've found out that most commercial dog food contains between 4 and 6 chemicals that have been proved to cause every one of those illness in humans! Yup, they've banned them for human consumption because they aren't just deadly poison but they are deadly poison that kills slowly and painfully!

I know I wouldn't wish any of those diseases on my worst enemy, let alone on my pet who I love. I knew I couldn't really trust big business who would always put profits before quality, but I always imagined that they would never be allowed to actually feed my dog filthy cancer causing food just because it saves them a buck or two. But I was wrong.

The stuff they put in commercial dog food is legally unfit for human consumption. If you sold it to a person to eat you could go to jail for attempted murder... and yet they feed this stuff to your pet. No, they get you to feed that stuff to your pet.

They can obviously never know the pain of a beloved pet lost, of watching your pride and joy yelp with pain and have to make the heart breaking decision to put them down by lethal injection to stop the suffering.
