"When she heard that she had a fairly big tumour, she said: "I couldn't believe or accept it. I had been going to the NUH to check so regularly"
This is so common nowadays that despite regular scan and checks, yet a person is diagnosed with cancer still.
Thankful to what I learnt in Nutritional Immunology, I know that cancer doesn't occurs overnight.
Most of the time, when a person is undergoing scan, cancer cells could be below 1mm, thus it's undetectable. However, it doesn't mean cancer doesn't exist.
The most sophisticated instruments can only detect tumors when it reaches 1mm, which is equivalent of about 1 million cancer cell
Read up: What does cancer staging means?
In the recent Nutritional Immunology Chapter 3 that I attended, from the Radiological Society of North America, I learnt that for each scan that we did, we are exposing to radiation too.
For example for a CT scan for Calcium Scoring, it means that we are exposing to the radiation for approx 1 year with 1 scan.
Always be a wise consumer. Only by being a wiser consumer, we are able to make informed choice.
What is the best way to prevent Cancer ?
We have best doctor within us, which is our Immune System. Only by nourishing our Immune System on the daily basis, it will help us to fight against diseases regularly. Ultimately, we are what we eat.
Prevention is the best cure.
