New research links omega-6 fatty acids, commonly found in seed oils, and colon cancer growth. But there’s more to the story—and study if you read it carefully.
Radiation hormesis is the conjecture that a low level of ionizing radiation (i.e., near the level of Earth's natural background radiation) helps "immunize" cells against DNA damage from other causes (such as free radicals or larger doses of ionizing radiation), and decreases the risk of cancer. The theory proposes that such low levels activate ...
Any type of ionizing radiation can cause burns, but alpha and beta radiation can only do so if radioactive contamination or nuclear fallout is deposited on the individual's skin or clothing. Gamma and neutron radiation can travel much greater distances and penetrate the body easily, so whole-body irradiation generally causes ARS before skin ...
Radiobiology is the study of the action of ionizing radiation on living things, including the health effects of radiation in humans. High doses of ionizing radiation can cause damage to living tissue such as radiation burning and harmful mutations such as causing cells to become cancerous, and can lead to health problems such as radiation ...
Eating more fish was associated with a higher risk of melanoma in a new study. What seafood lovers need to know. Fish and Skin Cancer: Seafood Associated With Higher Melanoma Risk
A 2015 Cochrane review found unclear usefulness for cancer pain, [44] though other reviews have found tentative evidence of benefit. [45] [46] It is of unclear effect in hot flashes in people with breast cancer. [47] The effects of aromatherapy are unclear with no peer-reviewed research in regards to cancer treatment. [48]
