I say we need to start taking a closer look at the kinds of "food" people put in their mouths and pay more attention to good nutrition and healthful practices. All around the world we have people gulping down "business lunches" where work and food are mixed. I say this is not healthy and that in addition to the chemicals they put on and in our food and in the air and water, we need to be mindful of how we eat as well as what we eat. I think we need a whole new approach to cancer prevention. Obviously the methods in use now are not working.

I don't know what lakh means but, you are right. Cancer is a dangerous disease and a cure for all types needs to be found. I think if feel the most sorry for the little children who have it.

Hi Mahesh! You are absolutely right about Cancer being a deadly disease. I read somewhere that in a survey done by American Cancer Society in 2007 7.6 million deaths happen worldwide due to Cancer.Cancer affects everyone – the young and old, the rich and poor, men, women and children – and represents a tremendous burden on patients, families and societies. Still many of these deaths can be avoided. Over 40% of all cancers can be prevented. Others can be detected early, treated and cured.
