Quotes about Cancer Vaccine from the world's top natural health / natural living authors
"Newsmagazines ran weekly reports on medicine under hopeful headlines:
1 U T l_ l\ I I \ 1— #~» I 1—
"Machine of Life," a story about dialysis, and "Hunt for cancer vaccine Closes In." Newsweek quoted U.S. Surgeon General Luther L. Terry, who predicted that by 198 c nine out of ten diseases would be eradicated and "spare parts for the human body . . . may seem almost commonplace." Television aired shows about heroic doctors, including Dr. Kildare, Ben Casey, and Marcus Welby M.D., which in 1969 was the nation's favorite program." - Shannon Brownlee, Overtreated: Why Too Much Medicine Is Making Us Sicker and Poorer (Get the book.)
| "The idea of a universal cancer vaccine that would immunize against all forms of cancer has certainly been toyed with for some time.
William B. Coley, a New York City surgeon in the early 1900s, used a vaccine that consisted of killed bacteria to prompt a tumor-killing response. It was the first reported attempt to boost immunity.
The idea of a cancer vaccine may not be clear to the public since vaccines are usually employed against viruses, such as influenza. However, not all cancer emanates from viral infection, though it is thought that 15% of malignancies have a viral origin." - Bill Sardi, You Don't Have to be Afraid of Cancer Anymore (Get the book.)

"However, not all cancer emanates from viral infection, though it is thought that 15% of malignancies have a viral origin. Some cancer vaccine technology seeks to make proteins within tumors antigenic (being able to induce an antibody response).
A vaccine against a major form of cancer is in the making. The papillomavirus is present in 99.7% of cervical cancer cases. Recently a papilloma vaccine was shown to prevent cervical abnormalities among a reported 100% of women."

| "Being able to interfere with the body's natural design papillomavirus (HPV) cervical cancer vaccine Gardasil has raised serious questions about its effectiveness. Although Gardasil blocked almost 100 percent of infections by two strains of HPV, it only reduced the incidence of cervical cancer precursors by 17 percent. Gardasil may, by blocking only specific strains, allow other varieties of HPV to flourish. The vaccine's manufacturer, Merck, has said that the vaccine reduces the number of pre-cancerous lesions caused by HPV." - Andreas Moritz, Timeless Secrets of Health & Rejuvenation: Unleash The Natural Healing Power That Lies Dormant Within You (Get the book.)
| "Rather, they use various methods to stimulate the cells of the immune system to attack cancer cells.
A cancer vaccine uses an antigen, a protein-based derivative from a tumor. Once inside the body, the antigen is taken up by dendritic cells, sentinel-like immune cells that break up the antigen and represent it in a form that T-cells can recognize. These T-cells are stimulated by the dendritic cells to then divide into large numbers and to acquire the capacity to recognize and destroy harmful tumor cells." - Bottom Line Health, Bottom Line's Health Breakthroughs 2007 (Get the book.)
"Studies show that 3% to 5% of solid tumors, such as those found in the lung, breast or prostate, shrink after using a cancer vaccine. In nonsolid, or hematological, cancers, such as leukemias and lymphomas, the response rate is slightly higher, because of the unique antigens in these types of cancers.
These success rates may sound low, but there's reason to be optimistic. Many studies report that a patient whose immune system is successfully activated by the vaccine either lives longer or experiences slower growth of the cancer than someone whose immune system is not successfully activated."

"Women's Health
Cervical cancer vaccine 100% Effective For Most Types
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved the first vaccine that protects against the human papillomavirus (HPV), known to cause most cervical cancers. The vaccine, Merck & Co.'s Gardasil, was approved for girls and women ages nine to 26. The National Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices will now decide whether to include the vaccine in routine vaccination schedules."

"Once a cervical cancer vaccine hits the market, young women in their late teens or early 20s would be the most likely candidates to receive it, she says.
The multistrain cross-protection that Cervarix offers is a bonus, Winer adds, and "worth investigating further" to find out the mechanism behind it.

| "But it is already available and proving its worth outside the U.S. The new approach seeks to stimulate the immune system to destroy cancer sites and cells. Researchers are attempting to create cancer vaccines through a number of techniques, experimenting with a variety of substances that stimulate different types of immune responses.
Presently, the National Cancer Institute has 100 active cancer vaccine trials—15 of these are devoted to dendritic cell therapy. Dendritic cells (DCs) are a rare type of white blood cell, generally accounting for less than 0.2% of total blood cells." - Larry Trivieri, Jr., Alternative Medicine the Definitive Guide, Second Edition (Get the book.)
