DEATH OF A CANCER CELL ARTICLE
 
When dealing with a situation as serious as cancer, the immune system is vitally important.  It makes sense to get all the help possible to destroy the diseased cells.  The immune system is quite capable of doing this when properly supported.  Transfer Factor Plus has been proven to do this safely.
 
Most cancers are named for the part of the body where the cancer begins.  For example, cancer that starts in the breast tissue is called breast cancer. Prostate cancer gets its name from the prostate gland.  The same is true for skin cancer, lung cancer, colon cancer, bone cancer, cervical cancer, liver cancer, pancreatic cancer, bladder cancer, uterine cancer and so on.  These cancer cells all have the same thing in common.  They all affect cells, our body's basic unit of life.  Fortunately it makes no difference to the immune system what the cancer is called or where it originated.
 
Cells that continually being produced as a normal process of life.  Occasionally a mutated cell is produced.  Under normal conditions this mutated cell is destroyed by the immune system before any harm is done.   However, if the immune system is not operating at peak efficiency, then these types of cells get by.  If left unchecked they can multiply until a problem such as cancer arises.
 
With the immune system operating at peak efficiency, it should be able to seek and destroy any undesirable cell anywhere in the body.  It simply does not matter to the immune system where it is or what it is called.  If it is not supposed to be there, it will attack and destroy it. 
 
The cancer cells are attacked by the Natural Killer (NK) Cells of the immune system.  The tentacles of the cancer cell.  The main function of these cells is to kill damaged or infected cells.  NK cells target any cell that is missing the "self" markers.  The NK cells attach and destroy these cells and spare normal cells that have high levels of "self" markers.  The killing process begins when the NK cell binds to the target cell and releases it's lethal burst of chemicals that produce holes in the target cell membrane.  Fluids and salts seep in and the target cell eventually bursts.
 
The cancer cell will be completely flattened and destroyed by the NK Cells when they have accomplished their mission.
 
Scientists have known for a long time the remarkable ability of the immune system to defend the body against all kinds of infections and diseases.  They have always dreamed of a way to bolster the immune system in a way that it could fight cancer cells more effectively.  Such an approach is known as immunotherapy.  Most of these approaches include natural substances that boost the ability of the immune system to destroy infected and diseased cells.
 
Immunotherapy promises to be a more natural way to address cancers than radiation and chemotherapy. By using the phenomenal recognition ability of the immune system, it gives a better way to target and treat cancers.  If used in conjunction with the traditional methods, it offers a way to get the immune system involved, and also helps with the immune problems often associated with these methods.
