Causes
& Symptoms
Interestingly enough, both the causes and the symptoms of
stomach cancer (also called gastric cancer) are almost identical
to those of peptic ulcers.
It is important to note that the chances are far greater
that you will have a peptic ulcer if you are showing any of
these symptoms, so do not be too alarmed!
Of course if your ulcers are already at an advanced stage,
then you will need further medical advice to see if you are
at risk.
Only a doctor will be able to give you a proper diagnosis.
The diagnosis
methods for stomach cancer are very similar to the methods
used for diagnosing peptic ulcers.
What are the Main Causes
of Stomach Cancer?
Stomach cancer can be caused by a number of factors that
damage the DNA in your stomach cells. When the DNA is damaged,
healthy cells can grow out of control and form a tumor (a
mass of malignant cells). These factors include:
- H. pylori infection - 75% of the world's population is
infected with a bacterium called Helicobacter
pylori (H. pylori) that lives deep in the mucous layer
which coats the lining of your stomach. It is the primary
cause of stomach ulcers, accounting for at least 80 percent
of all cases. And the World Health Organization have
indicated that close to 50% of the annual new cases of stomach
cancer can also be attributed to H. pylori infection.
- Nitrates and nitrites - these chemicals are added
to certain foods, such as processed or cured meats such
as ham and bacon, sausages and other cold meats you normally
find down at the deli. Nitrates and nitrites combine with
other substances in your stomach to form carcinogens, which
are known to cause stomach cancer.
- Salted, smoked or pickled foods and red meat -
in countries where consumption of salted meat and fish and
pickled vegetables is high, the corresponding rates of stomach
cancer are also high. Consuming high levels of red meat,
especially when the meat is barbecued or well done, has
also been linked to stomach cancer.
- Tobacco and alcohol use - Both can irritate the
stomach lining and are especially likely to cause cancer
in the upper stomach area.
- Low income groups - children and adults from low
income groups are more likely to develop stomach cancer
than are those in higher income groups. This is due to a
number of reasons. The main problem is in poor countries
with poor sanitation and unhygienic living conditions where
H. pylori spreads quite quickly.
Tests
show 1 in every 7 people
have a high risk of stomach cancer.
4.6 billion people are infected across the world with the
Helicobacter Pylori bacterium. Having
ulcers doesn't necessarily put you at higher risk of stomach
cancer, but having an infection of Helicobacter pylori
certainly does!
Types of Stomach Cancer
Most stomach cancers start in the glandular cells in the
mucous layer which coats the lining of your stomach, and are
called adenocarcinomas.
There are 2 types of adenocarcinomas;
- Type 1 occurs in the lower stomach, close to your small
intestine known as the duodenum. Type 1 is usually a result
of a chronic infection with H. pylori bacterium, or a bad
diet, or a combination of both.
- Type 2 occurs throughout your stomach and is more than
likely a result of genetic factors. Type 2 is aggressive
and is more likely to spread than type 1. Type 2 can spread
through the stomach wall to your lymph nodes, and will eventually
spread to your pancreas, liver and colon. Although most
stomach cancers are adenocarcinomas, there are other forms
of the disease, including:
- Lymphomas - these are usually caused by an infection
of H. pylori and can be cured if detected early enough.
- Carcinoid tumors - these account for a very small
percentage of stomach cancers. Carcinoid tumors start in
the hormone-producing cells in your stomach - they grow
very slowly and do not spread to other parts of the body
as frequently as the more common stomach cancers do.
- GIST's (or gastrointestinal stromal tumors) -
also account for a very small percentage of stomach cancers.
They can be found anywhere in the digestive tract, but most
are found in the stomach. GIST's are not the same as other
types of gastric cancers. They originate from different
cells and require different treatment.
GIST's can be fatal in a short time because they spread
through your body very quickly.
Treatment
of Stomach Cancer
The primary goal of any effective treatment
is to remove the cancer. Choosing a treatment plan is a major
decision, and it's important to spend some time researching
all the options to make sure the treatment you select is right
for you. It is always worthwhile getting a second opinion
if you are unsure.
Treatment options include the following:
- Surgery - this is the most common treatment for
stomach cancer. It may involve removing part or all of your
stomach and possibly some of the surrounding tissues and
lymph nodes as well. After a part of your stomach has been
removed, the remaining part of your stomach is connected
to your esophagus and your small intestine. If your whole
stomach is removed, your esophagus will be attached directly
to your small intestine.
- Chemotherapy - drugs used to help kill cancer
cells are taken orally or intravenously. Sometimes it may
be the only treatment needed, but most often doctors use
chemotherapy in conjunction with other therapies, like radiation.
The problem is that these drugs affect both healthy cells
and cancerous cells. The result is a range of very unpleasant
side effects such as nausea and vomiting, fatigue, and because
of a shortage of white blood cells there is an increased
risk of infection.
- Radiation therapy - high-energy X-rays can be
aimed to at cancer cells in this treatment. The upside of
this is that the radiation affects only those parts of your
body which the radiation beam passes through. Even though
doctors take care to aim the beam in a way that least affects
you, it is important to note that any tissue, even healthy
tissue which is touched by radiation, can be damaged. Side
effects may include a burn on your skin from the radiation,
as well as nausea, vomiting, and fatigue.
- Clinical trials - if you are at an advanced stage,
you may be offered participation in a clinical trial. Beware!
You may be used as a guinea-pig to test new new drugs, surgery
or radiation. You must remember that the treatments used
in clinical trials are experimental and have no recorded
success rates. You could experience unexpected side effects,
and there will be no guarantees offered.
Is
there an effective solution to Helicobacter Pylori
-
one of the main Causes of Stomach Cancer
?
There definitely is, but you need
to be very careful when looking for a treatment
or remedy that is going to work for you. Most doctors

Pylori infections or about the treatments that

help you to avoid the pitfalls of choosing
any medication or remedy that may not even work

Just these
2 factors will protect BOTH
your health...and your finances!
We believe the right way is to find a treatment
or remedy that will work for you, is to take
the time to ensure that the treatment you are
considering, is BOTH;
1. KIND TO YOUR BODY - Regardless
of cost, proper care of your body should always
be your no.1 priority. Choose a treatment that
has few or NO negative effects.
2. GUARANTEED TO WORK -
why choose a product which is not backed up
by it's manufacturers?
Can you be sure of success if the product's
manufacturers are not? Consider the added cost
of trying something else in the event of failure.
Making sure of these 2 factors will ensure
both your health and your finances are protected.
Is it possible?....a
treatment with no negative effects
AND one that is guaranteed to work?
The answer is YES - most definitely! Most
people who have visited this web site have
already tried and failed to overcome Helicobacter
Pylori, with most having used more than one
type of treatment already.
Does this sound familiar? If
so, then you probably want to know
more about a safe and effective solution,
and one which guarantees success?

I
am delighted to say the result of my HpSA
test was negative. I noticed while I was
taking the Matula for the month of Dec/January
that I did not wake up once in the night.
I
would love to know what that ingredient
was that gave me such wonderful sleep.
I usually wake up around 3-3/30 AM and
can't get back to sleep for nearly 2 hours.
Some
of my friends were very skeptical and some
were downright scoffing. I am really enjoying
telling them the results. Drinking the
tea was certainly no problem at all and
so much better than the dreaded antibiotics.
Thank
you again.

I
can't thank you enough for all the information
you have sent my way.
It's better then any office visit
I ever had with a doctor. Your
reports are easy to read and are extremely
informative and helpful. The best part
is, that I can go back and read them
again and again.
I chose your program, because I believe
in natural healing, rather than using
medication, which I feel does nothing
but mask the problem.
Along
with healing gastric erosion/ulcers, I
am also treating candida overgrowth, which
I need to heal as well, since most
of my trouble started after being on antibiotics earlier
this year.
Thank You!

Four
months ago, I contacted you regarding
how to treat my H.Pylori and Barret Esophagus.
I want to thank you for your advice.
I
had the Stool antigen test 2 months ago
and it was negative. Now I feel a big difference
with my health. I have experienced a big
relief with my stomach and health.
Your
Matula formula really worked. After I finished
Matula, I complemented your therapy with
Rhubarb root and goldenseal taken separately
for a month twice a day. I had a highly
resistant bacteria. I truly believe this
was a wonderful way of ending the treatment
to get cured. I want to share it with you
and express again my appreciation towards
you treatment and advice.
I
wish you lots of health and fulfillment
in your life.
