Cancer cell physiology is very interesting and surprising. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Bob, Just found "The Story of Ozone" by Saul Pressman, Plasmafire Intl. I quote: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dr Otto Warburg was awarded a Nobel Prize in 1931 and again in 1944 for discovering the cause of cancer. "Cancer has only one prime cause. the prime cause of cancer is the replacement of normal oxygen respiration of body cells by and anerobic cell respiration." Once the level of oxygen available to a cell drops below 40% of normal, the cell is forced to switch to an inferior method of energy production--fermentation. The cell then loses its governor on replication, produces inferior ATP, and wastes are lactic acid and carbon monoxide. The acidity surrounding it can trigger t-cells to release enzyme growth factors. Stimulated by EGF, the anerobic cell begins to replicate wildly. This is cancer. If a parasite is involved in the area the acidity is greater and the cancer growth even more rapid. Questions: 1. Why do cancers often develop an extra blood supply, if not to supply oxygen? 2. Warburg mentions acidity several times. Acidity seems to go with anerobic functioning. If the pH is changed, does the means of respiration change? ie...if the pH becomes alkaline does the cell revert back to normal oxygen respiration? Any thoughts? ~^^V^^~ -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
