Cancer is not from genes may be good news, depending on how much responsibility you want to take. The BRAC1 and BRAC2 mutations are an alarm that tells you there is danger. However, having a high-risk mutation surely doesn’t mean you will develop any type of cancer from the abnormality.

There are variables such as the influence of your lifestyle on the other genes that work together with this mutation. Variations of the BRCA!, BRAC2, CDH1, PTEN, STK11, and TP53 genes increase the risk of developing breast cancer. Also the AR, ATM, BARD1, BRIP1, CHEK2, DIRA53, ERBB2, NBN, PALB2,, RAD50 and RAD51 genes are associated with breast cancer.

As far as real research into the role of lifestyle and diet on the two most feared gene mutations BRAC1 and BRAC2 you will not find it. It hasn’t been done. Since the triggers for any cancer is a sum total of everything which either activates and stimulates the ability for cancer to develop and spread. 

As of yet, there has been no research on the role of diet and lifestyle on these two genes. The triggers for cancer are the sum total of a cascade of events that stimulate the initiation of this condition. Alcohol, sugar, lack of exercise, vitamin and mineral deficiencies, stress, environmental toxins are all things that contribute to both the formation of tumors, and the spread of cancer.

Let’s take alcohol which has a known link to the development of cancer. There are parts of alcohol which converts to a metabolite know as accetaldehyde. This is a molecule which causes cancer through different means. One way it does it is to bind to the DNA causing mutations which can initiate cancer.  Also, it produces reactive oxygen species (ROS), which leads to an inflammatory response which can promotes cancer formation.

When we talk about cancer without talking about antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, enzymes, gluthathione, exercise, sunlight, barley grass juice, silymarin (milk thistle), chlorophlin, grape seed extract, resveraterol, calorie restriction with optimal nutrition and a comprehensive nutritional regimen along with stress reduction we on the wrong path.

It is critical that there is universal recognition on what supports healthy cell function. Without this understanding our response will be to remove and destroy anything which seems to be a threat of our health. Getting healthy is the answer to cancer, until science recognizes the synergistic action of a healthy lifestyle they will continue to cut, burn and poison patients as a way to bring about health.

If genes aren’t the cause of common diseases, than there has to be a environmental connection. Ever since sequencing the human genome, genetic researchers have found little evidence of genetic causes to most of the common diseases. Inherited genes are not the cause of the sky rocketed growth of conditions such as heart disease, stroke, cancer, diabetes, autism, ADHD and dementia. Nor is it the cause of depression, obesity, and metabolic  syndrome.

Genes Limited Role

The case for a substantial role of genes in susceptibility to the major human diseases has been refuted by a groundbreaking new analysis published by the public interest science organization, The Bio science Resource Project. Of the approximately 1,000 genes identified that confer susceptibility to disease only a tiny amount are of even limited importance..

The coast is clearing and the gene inquisitions may as well stop. The medical community is on the wrong path. This isn’t a game of multiple choice with the perpetual question being which gene is responsible for expanding waistlines. Ambiguity is what the medical establishment is good at. Instead of understanding the interdependence humans have with the environment, they make everything complicated.

Genes Vs. Environment

The results of the materials and new methods of farming may be the final piece in the equation. The testing before products leave the lab may not measure the effect or determine the long term impact on the citizens and the environment. Without being able to account for the impact our new way of life has on the population, genes may be the last place to look to eliminate disease states.

Genetic expression should be the focus of any health initiative. All the pharmaceuticals have little or no bearing on disease.

Control Gene Expression           

We are in control for the most part when it comes to gene expression. This is the core issue in almost every chronic condition. Diabetes, cancer, high blood pressure, cholesterol, metabolic syndrome, and dementia are all diet related.

Lifestyle is the deciding factor in how the genes will express themselves. This is the missing piece of the puzzle when we look for the rise in all chronic conditions. Everything we do has an impact on our health. Diseases don’t come out of the blue.

Human Gene 

The human gene isn’t something that has to be studied as much as understood. It is directed by our action and expresses itself by our lead. When we realize the power we have to orchestrate their expression, we would know that studying them in their static form has little meaning.

Gene expression is forever flowing and changing. Our attention should be on our actions, and then we will find the ways to alleviate much of our suffering. There are many ways to turn on the healing power of our genes.

You have the power, and the gene is your army that will lead you to a healthy finish.
