Profile

Who am I? I am a screwed-up blogger and an active blog reader since 2007. A soulful dreamer who believes that passion is life and a person who is looking for meaning, just like any other human being in this world. A super girl wannabe who is currently taking chances and chasing pavements, while keeping up with time and living life in general. This is me, and this blog is the outlet of my random thoughts.

  • Cancer and the Bacterial Connection
    Saturday, March 8, 2008 @ 6:31 PM | comment (0)

    In the 1890’s, New York surgeon William Coley tried a radical cancer treatment -- injecting patients with disease-causing bacteria. After weeks of chills and fevers, many showed significant tumor regression, although Coley himself could not explain why.

    Some contemporary scientists think Coley had the right idea. Germs may be able to teach your body how to fight back against tumors. While it has not yet been proven, new studies have revealed that certain cancers may be reduced by exposure to disease-causing bacteria and viruses, which result in a boost for your body's natural immunity.

    The studies also imply that our infection-free lifestyles may be contributing to the rise in cancers over the past 50 years. Germs cause disease, but they may also fortify the body.
