More Beijing residents have died of cancer than any other disease since 2007 according to the “Report on Cases of Terminal Cancer from 1995 to 2010 in Beijing” recently published by the Beijing Institute of Cancer Prevention and Cures. The report says cancer has been confirmed as the cause of death for 25% of deceased patients. Lung cancer is the top killer of men and breast cancer the top killer of women. Between 2000 and 2009, the number of people diagnosed with lung cancer increased by 56%, and the number diagnosed with breast cancer increased by 128%. Scientists have discovered that many different factors, including environment, diet, and lifestyle, contribute to cancer, and they believe that it is important to spread what they have learned about cancer to help people break away from the unhealthy lifestyles that are often precursors to the disease.
Recognized as incurable in the medical community, cancer constitutes a serious challenge for mankind. It has been a dream of scientists around the world to understand cancer’s course and finally conquer it. In this article we discuss cancer from a new perspective, hoping that this may provide people with a new point of view and understanding of the disease.
