Correct. Studies have been done that suggest the average human is programmed to live to a max of 125 years. The telomeres of our chromosomes degrade and shorten with aging, 125 years is the estimate of when they eventually disappear, leaving nothing to protect our genes from mutations associated with replication.

I had heard a myth that prostate cancer will inevitably affect every man, if something else doesn't first. Any truth to this?

Interesting theory. So the researchers who discovered this, and the executives responsible for keeping the lid on, do they secretly take the anti-cancer medication for themselves, and just not pass it to the hoi polloi? How have they managed to keep this secret?

Or are they so devoted to keeping the stock price high that they are willing to let themselves (and family members) die rather than risk the secret getting out? True devotion there.

Cancer and all other illnesses both physical and mental/emotional are caused by stress in the body. If the stress switch is turned off the body's immune system can naturally heal itself on a fundamental energetic level. I would recommend everyone get a book called The Healing Codes and read it. It describes energy healing on a quantum physical level as the fundamental way for ANY condition to be healed, including cancer.

Not a myth, well researched that the vast majority of men will develop prostate cancer if they reach 80 years of age. And the vast majority of those men that develop it don't know they have it. Itis often undetected and of no consequence as you are more likely to die from something unrelated (heart disease, stroke, etc)

Whole life from an insurance standpoint used to be written to a 100 years.

Now it's written for 121 years, so there is that to be grateful for.

I think I read somewhere that if you live long enough you will get it.

Wasn't there some kid that found a real cheap way to diagnose cancer and aren't there cancer sniffing dogs? Seems like if you could catch it in beginning stages you would stand a good chance of beating the cancer. And then maybe 4-5 times a year pay a few bucks and let a dog sniff you

WTF are you talking about? I didn't say it was a conspiracy, but unless said "cure" involves numerous rounds of expensive treatments and a mountain of pharmaceuticals, it cannot possibly be as much or more lucrative.

Some kinds are more likely to happen if certain factors happen, like with unprotected sun exposure and skin cancer, smoking and lung cancer, HPV and cervical cancer. They could always spontaneously occur on their own, but there's things you can do to reduce some risk.

Read up on mind/body medicine. As you think so you are. Your doctor isn't going to tell you about this stuff nor is the pharmaceutical industry. They have a vested economic interest in you NOT knowing this stuff. Illness and sickness is not inevitable. We have just been conditioned by the powers that be to think that it is and that they are the answer. Think for yourselves and keep an open mind and it will add much value to your life. Off my soapbox now.

Yeah it's called natural organic farming, it would require a lot more workers, more land, less chemicals, etc. I'm pretty sure all the shite we eat is responsible for most of the cancer.

The cancer cells are in most people, just depends on how or if they manifest themselves.
