Microbiome and Cancer

Nivaasini Sivarajah ^[6]

Abstract: If cancer does end up being added to the growing list of problems which an upset microbiome can cause, that may stimulate research into ways of tweaking it to stop it causing disease. Age, diet, stress, hormone factors, genetic predisposition, and cancer viruses are all suspected as possible causative factors, but totally ignored are infectious bacteria which have been implicated in breast cancer and other forms of cancer. Many print outs states that various things we do to our body could be responsible for cancer, such as smoking, eating bad food, not getting enough vitamins or exercise, etc. But in actuality, none of these things directly cause cancer, they simply put our bodies at a greater risk of developing cancer. Microbes are one of the main leading causes of cancer. The link between cancer and obesity may be related to changes in gut fauna. Clinical studies indicate a link between cancer and infectious agents as well as chronic inflammatory disorders. It is thought that infectious agents or inflammatory disorders lead to activation of NF-B. Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second most common cause of death from cancer in the United States. Early diagnosis is important in successful treatment but detection requires regular screening through the use of colonoscopies in at-risk patients, an unpleasant and lengthy process for the patient. Research suggests that some species of gut bacteria, either acquired as an infection or naturally occurring in the gut microbiome EM is a naturally fermented liquid probiotic utilising effective microorganisms. EM is a new generation of bacterial technology with potential benefits far in excess of contemporary probiotic products. Microbes are cancer causing organisms.
