Dogs detecting cancer
During last decade scientists already proved that dogs are able to detect certain types of cancer at earlier stages than current modern screening methods. It was noted that dogs detecting cancer can smell certain volatile organic compounds (waste products of cancer) in saliva, urine and breath. It is absolutely amazing discovery because actually home dogs (our family members) can save our lives. In addition, if scientists could understand how it works, special medical canine support teams can be trained and used for early cancer detection in millions of cases.

Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR)
Every human body is losing energy every day even without any physical activities – when at rest in comfortable environment, not eating, not digesting and not stressing. The amount of energy our body spending when it is at rest called Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) – the measurement of energy spent by existing functioning body organs, the energy is needed for body to maintain life, the minimum amount of energy needed to keep body functioning, including breathing and keeping heart beating. Actually the BMR is the energy we use every day to keep us alive and healthy including vital functions such as breathing and keeping warm. In general, human body spend about 10% energy for digestion; 20% for additional activities (work, sport, mental activities, stress, etc.) and about 70% complicated body functioning (BMR).

Breast cancer stages
To be able to choose the treatment protocols, doctors classify different cases of breast cancer by stages. Breast cancer stages are usually mentioned as a number on a scale of 0 through IV. The minimum stage is 0 which is describing non-invasive cancers that remain within their original location and the maximum stage is IV which is describing invasive cancers that have spread outside the breast to other parts of the body. Breast cancer stage is based on several factors.

Scientists noted that at least one in eight women will develop invasive breast cancer during their lifetime (about 12% of women). Most women who get breast cancer are over 50, but younger women can also get breast cancer. If it is discovered at early stages and if it is treated early enough, breast cancer can be cured and prevented from spreading to other parts of the body.
Nowadays breast cancer treatment protocols are pretty successful – survival rates are growing every year. To estimate and make prognosis for each case of breast cancer doctors needs to know not only tumor sizes but also breast cancer cells’ types. Depending on breast cancer cells all treatment strategies could be developed and future survival prognosis can be estimated.

One in eight women will develop breast cancer in their lifetime. Breast cancer is the second most diagnosed cancer in women (first is skin cancer). Average five-year survival rate is more than 90% for breast cancers detected early thanks to modern screening and prevention methods as well as new improved, personalized targeted treatments.
In most cases breast cancer is diagnosed in women after 50 (about 75%) but it does occur in younger women also. Only 5-10% of all breast cancers are the result of inherited genetic factors. List of other risk factors include use of hormones, stress, obesity, low levels of vitamin D, smoking, drinking, etc.
Breast cancer types are important to clarify because all treatment strategies and future survival depend on breast cancer types.

Scientists found the correlation between risk of breast cancer and melatonin (so called “hormone of darkness”), a hormone produced by the body to promote continued sleep. When levels of melatonin decrease, the body produces more estrogen, which is a known risk factor for breast cancer.

Vitamin D and breast cancer
Several scientists demonstrated the link between vitamin D and breast cancer. It was noted that women with breast cancer tend to have low levels of vitamin D in their body and women with higher levels of vitamin D are less likely to develop breast cancer. It is important to mention that breast cancer suffering women with higher levels of vitamin D have higher chances for survival – they usually have smaller tumors and are less likely to die from breast cancer.

Anticancer Vitamin B17
Some scientists suggest that we all have micro-cancel cells in our body
but they become a cancer only because of some triggering factors
(chemical reactions, deficit of some elements or vitamins, damaged
metabolism and immune system, wrong lifestyle, etc., etc.). It is very
important to mention that if our defence mechanisms are functioning
normally, the body kills off the cancer cells, and we are never aware
that it happened. At the same time, if our body is facing some
breakdowns in our body defence system, cancer cells “receive the
freedom” and nothing can prevent the growth of those cancer cells.

Vitamin D and breast cancer survival
Vitamin D could help women with breast cancer survival – this is very
good news for women who are presently fighting breast cancer as well as
for women who need badly breast cancer prevention tools.
Several scientific publications showed that low vitamin D levels were linked to a high risk of premenopausal breast cancer. Can the deficit of vitamin D trigger breast cancer? What are links between vitamin D and breast cancer? Can the vitamin D be the main key to breast cancer survival?

Anticancer Vitamin D
Breast cancer is the most common form of cancer found in women. It is estimated that at least one out of every eight women will develop breast cancer in their lifetime. Every year number of breast cancer cases is growing – not only because of improved diagnostic methods but also because of increased numbers of women who use hormones, who have genetic predispositions, who suffer from obesity, etc.
