Abstract

"MAY YOUR LIVER BE SMOOTH”. Liver is the “hot organ" and is mainly concerned with digestion. Liver cancer is most common in countries located in sub-Saharan Africa and Southeast Asia. Cancer is the leading cause of death in Canada. It is estimated that one in two Canadians will be diagnosed with cancer during their lifetime. Cancer is a fatal disease which may occur in a person at any point in his life due to the abnormal growth of cells. Liver cancer is one such type of cancer that occurs due to the occurrence of tumors in the liver. We are developing new cutting-edge therapies using cellular and genetic engineering to fight cancer. These therapies not only represent the next generation of cancer treatments, but the underlying technologies will help create new medicines for use beyond cancer and significantly impact other areas from clean energy to food production. Using microwave ovens, drinking from plastic bottles and consuming food additive are causes of cancer, believing a “worrying” number of peoples. The findings come from a survey in which 1,330 people in England were quizzed on risk factors. The results show that 40% wrongly thought stress and food additives cause cancer.
