Effective New Era Treatment Practiced For Stage 4 Breast Cancer

Cancer – the name itself is terrifying for anybody. Stage 4 Breast cancer is in the advanced stage and there is huge chance that it has spread into other parts of the body. In this stage the patients have usually exhaust all their possible options for cure. Radiotherapy, chemotherapy and other surgical options do not really work. Most of these patients lose all hope and follow the conventional treatment options. Most doctors do not opt for a different treatment procedure and because of that cancer remains as an unsolved puzzle.

Treating breast cancer at advanced stage is critical. However, thinking out of the box can be beneficial sometimes. There are certain factors that influence the growth of 4th Stage Breast Cancer. Inflammations, infections, cancer’s genetics and the related changes and immunity impairment can cause a lot of trouble in the advanced stages of breast cancer. There are some organizations where the experts try to treat breast cancer with tomorrow’s technology.

Chemotherapy is not effective in advanced stage

People often think that chemotherapy can cure cancer in all the stages. The truth is that the success rate of chemotherapy on advanced stages of breast cancer is only 2%. Breast cancer mutates really fast and that is why chemotherapy does not really work on the advanced staged. Initially you might notice some changes, but later it stops working on the cancer cells. There are some experts and groups who are now trying target chemotherapy. It will work on the affected cells only. The success rate is much higher here.

Radiotherapy, chemotherapy and Standard oncology treatments

Often the cancer spreads in multiple organs. Standard oncology treatment cannot always stop the metastasis and micro-metastasis together. For the oncologists it is a critical task to find out and track how the cancer cells are growing and spreading from breast to other organs. Both radiation and chemotherapy can reduce the size of the cancer cells and growths, but cannot kill it in the advanced stage. Advanced stage breast cancer spreads really fast and that is why the oncologists are now concentrating on the natural killer cells in the body. This can be a notable progress in case of breast cancer.
The immune system must be improved. Otherwise, the cancer cells will continue to grow even in a slower rate. Metastasis is the main reason behind the death of most of the cancer patients. The experts are now trying to imply target therapy and some other new age treatments for cancer. Hopefully, in the near future the name “cancer” won’t be a terrifying medical puzzle to the humankind.

Envita Reviews Teri’s Lyme Story

Four years ago, I was diagnosed with Strep Throat: Consuming lots of antibiotics washed-out the good bacteria in my GI system that resulted in C-Difficile. I had to face so many difficulties such as severe tiredness, memory loss, brain fog, lack of concentration, puzzlement, blurry vision, red swollen eyes, respiratory challenges, weakness, GI pain, neck pain, jaw pain, sore throat and cough, insomnia, hair loss, mood swings, bad temper, increased allergies and what not. I then consulted my family doctor, she advised me for few tests including x-rays, ultrasounds and copious blood tests. After all the tests and visiting specialist all the reports came negative. She then prescribed me anti-depressants so that I could live with the Chronic Fatigue. But I didn’t want to live like this with all the problems. I was then referred to Envita where after having some tests, I was diagnosed with Lyme disease and heavy metals toxicity and my treatment started. I saw instant results, although it taken almost a year to rebuild my strength. Most of the symptoms of Lyme have disappeared. I’ am really thankful to Envita for giving me back my previous active life.

Envita Medical center doctors are immensely helpful and show great sympathy towards patients concern. It is because of their whole-hearted dedication and devotion onto me that I saved my life from this so called deadly disease. But before that I got chance to know the origination and affected areas of the world by this disease. Though, possible treatments are available for Lyme disease, but I would like that you should not suffer like me, and step once for a while at Envita Medical Center for better future.

Lyme Disease: An Overview of What it is

It is highly essential to have an idea of what exactly Lyme disease is. Very frequently you may be suffering from the problem but end up not knowing the real cause of the problem. Here is a small effort to bring to your attention the nature, causes and symptoms of Lyme disease.

Lyme disease is a bacterial infection caused by bacteria named Borrelia burgdorferi. The ticks are blacklegged and they pick the bacteria when they come in contact with deer or mice that are already infected with this disease. And if the infected tick bites anybody, they get the disease.

The disease passes through three stages.

1st stage: Early localized. The infection has just started and not yet widespread in the body.

2nd stage: Early Disseminated. In this stage the bacteria has begun to spread in the body.

3rd stage: Late Disseminated. In this stage the bacteria has spread completely inside the body.

A regular walk in high grasses, having a pet and doing a lot of outdoor activities like gardening, hiking or hunting increase the risk of getting the disease. When the tick is attached to one’s body for more than 24-36 hours, it is adequate time for the bacteria to spread into the body.

The initial symptoms that people affected with this disease are chills, fever, headache, muscle pain, body wide itching, general ill feeling, and stiff neck and muscle pain. In a few cases there may also be rashes near the bites. If the disease is left untreated there is every chance that it will spread to the heart, brain and joints as well. Well, these may be the symptoms that one can experience in the Stage 1 of the disease.

The Stage 2 is marked by symptoms like muscle pain, heart problems like palpitations and weakness in the muscles that may at times cause paralysis too. The Stage 3 is marked by symptoms like muscles and joints pain, abnormal muscle movements, speech problems, numbness and tingling. The transition from the first stage to the second stage may take a few weeks to a few months. And the transition further from there to the third stage will take a few months to a few years.

ELISA is the most commonly used test for detecting Lyme disease. However, in areas where this disease is widespread, the health care provider may diagnose the disease even without conducting any lab tests. When Lyme disease is detected in the nascent stage itself, it can be cured easily with the help of antibiotics. Even though there are a few complications involving the heart, joints and the nervous system, they are all treatable.

Envita Medical Approach to Stage 4 Cancer beyond Chemo

One tactic cancer cells and stage 4 cancers employ to develop and progress is by avoiding programmed cell death (apoptosis.) In a normal body, apoptosis is the naturally-occurring process by which the body maintains healthy tissue function by disposing of damaged cells. It is triggered by signals, including cell stress and DNA damage.

In many cancer patients, we see the process of apoptosis averted. This allows cancer cells to continue to endure. In a healthy person, we may see apoptosis protect us from potential cancer situations up to 10,000 times per day; so what we must ask ourselves is “why then do Stage 4 Cancer patients divert this natural process?”

Mutations Bring About Stubborn and Resistant Stage 4 Cancers

Both internal and external cellular triggers can commence apoptosis.  To catalyze internally, the process relies on protein p53. In the event of certain mutations to this protein’s gene, the protein can become inactive, thereby inhibiting internally-triggered apoptosis functionality. This mutation is seen in up to 50 percent of all human cancers. By targeting this mutation, cancer treatments are enhanced significantly.

Stage 4 Cancers May Dodge Chemotherapy

It is common knowledge that radiation’s and chemotherapy’s ability to damage cell DNA, indirectly promotes apoptosis. However, cancer takes advantage of a tricky loophole to side-step what should be imminent trouble for its cells. As mutations to protein p53 can shut down apoptosis from within the cell, in such circumstance, cancer cells can escape the harm of conventional stage 4 treatments meant to wipe it out.

Because Envita has seen this repeatedly over the last decade plus of working with the most difficult cancers, we have become proactive. Our protocols call for preventative treatments designed to overcome p53 oncogene mutations through specialized nutrition, and encouraging healthy apoptosis.

Recognizing that nutritional, immunological, or impairments in toxin elimination deficiencies cancreate cancer-friendly environments is the first step. Taking action against the causes of these environments is what sets Envita apart.

Launching an Offensive on Cancer

By simultaneously catalyzing apoptosis outside and within the cell, it is possible to destroy cancer cells that were previously deemed conventional treatment-resistant. Depending upon the stage and cancer type, Envita has a variety of treatments to support mitochondria dysfunction – coupled with nutrients employed to restore healthy functionality. These unique treatments are a part of why Envita has such and impressive track record against advanced and stage 4 cancers.

Treatment Improved – Results Achieved

Envita’s Comprehensive Smart Oncology® program integrates successful oncology combinations with our aggressive natural therapies that affect apoptosis in cancer cells by using tumor destruction methods that actually rely solely on p53.

Chronic Fatigue Epstein-Barr virus and Infectious Mononucleosis Chronic Lyme Disease Co-infection

ImageAnother member of the herpes virus is considered among the Lyme disease Complex of co-infections. Epstein-Barr virus (EBV.)  This virus, EBV, can remain alive but dormant in the body for the life of the patient. EBV (also known as HHV-4) is quite common and most people will contract it at some point in their lives. The most common method of EBV transmission comes through saliva, and this co-infection of Lyme disease’s symptoms is unlikely to present until 4-6 weeks. The disease is most often spread during this period. This is may be one of the co-infection of Lyme disease that should be tested and treated properly.  If a patient with Mono continues to have fatigue beyond 6 weeks or doesn’t feel like they are 100% that is not uncommon when the patient has chronic Lyme disease.

Children and Autoimmunity, Autism-like Symptoms, and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

EBV symptomology usually is not displayed by children who contract this Lyme diseases Complex co-infection. However, when an EBV infection occurs in adolescence or young adulthood, 35-50 percent of those individuals will contract mononucleosis.

In situations where Lyme disease and its co-infections are already present, they tend to reproduce at a far higher rate than they would otherwise, often leading to significant brain and autoimmune disease-like symptoms that can mimic those of Autism.

Fever, sore throat, swollen lymph glands, elevated white blood cells counts, and even swollen liver and spleen round out presenting symptoms of infectious mononucleosis – a disease directly affected by EBV. In fact there are some cases, albeit rare, that have seen impact on the heart and central nervous system.

If symptoms of mononucleosis persist beyond six months, Lyme disease testing or a Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) evaluation should be considered by care provider. More importantly in chronic Lyme disease complex the virus can stay active for years and not follow the course seen with simple mono. Because of biofilm communities these infections can be triggered by the other infections involved.

Co-infection of Chronic Lyme disease Co-infection Epstein Barr – Linked to Autoimmune Diseases and MS

A pattern of association has been drawn between Epstein-Barr and Multiple Sclerosis as well as other autoimmune diseases.With regards to Lyme disease co-infection EBV, a leading world researcher pointed out that among MS related brain lesions,abnormal accumulations of EBV infected B lymphocytes were found consistently. This observation shares similarities with studies focused on the pathological tissues of those suffering with other autoimmune diseases.

Lyme disease (and other tick-borne zoonotic illness) has been clinically shown to suggest viruses can be activated in its presence. Simply put, a human carrier of herpetic virus when combined with another infection can activate Epstein Barr, thereby accelerating patient fatigue, in addition to many other potential symptoms associated with other autoimmune diseases and neurological symptoms. This is where we see the Chronic Lyme disease impact Cancer and other autoimmune diseases.

Epstein Barr and Autoimmune Disease Link to Viruses and Chronic Fatigue

Immunologists have long suspected viruses as being the silent triggers of autoimmune diseases with their unrivaled ability to interfere with the immune systems of their hosts. EBV, which infects up to 95 percent of the human global population, has been repeatedly associated with MS through epidemiological and serological studies. However, direct proof of its involvement had been much harder to come by.

The virus can hide in the immune system’s B lymphocytes and remain relatively dormant throughout the life of the host. However, should the immune system fail to properly control it, EBV can reactivate and begin to cause tumors in thisprocess. Lyme Disease and it complex of infections may re-active this virus. It was demonstrated in a study conducted in Africa that Epstein Barr was activated and increased by addition of Malaria. Therefore, the combinations of infections and the patient’s immune system play critical role.

In 2007 it was shown that EBV is present in the brain lesions of MS patients after being transported into the central nervous system by B lymphocytes. It was also made evident that these infected B cells, when they do present in the brain, become the target of an immune attack. This often will cause a situation leading to chronic inflammation and eventually tissue destruction. Seemingly, EBV and its “unwilling smuggler” B cells are the main cause of brain damage in MS patients. This abnormal accumulation of EBV infected B cells is found among pathological tissues in other autoimmune diseases as well.

Progression of Autoimmune Diseases and MS

Infectious mononucleosis-causing pathogen, Epstein-Barr virus (EBV),plays a significant role in the facilitation of neurodegeneration among MS sufferers.At Envita, we work to speed healing time and boost the immune systems in those with EBV. In fact, EBV could be the environmental factor necessary to initiate the disease in adults. Moreover, it could likely be the increased immunological response to EBV infection in MS that actually leads to the disease’s characteristic immune dysregulation.

However, as MS patients do not usually have increased immune responses to other common viruses, the higher rate of EBV seroprevalence (coupledwith the higher anti-EBV antibody titre) cannot be the result of some hyper-immune state in MS patients. It seems instead that the increased risk for MS, particularly in those of higher age,decidedly points to an irrefutable link between MS and EBV. It may even be that EBV is completely requisite for MS to develop in adults.  Patients really need to be tested for Lyme disease complex and co-infections to receive proper help.

Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery, and Psychiatry More Evidence

Professor of medicine and multiple sclerosis expert Robert Zivadinov shares, “A growing body of experimental evidence indicates that past infection with EBV may play a role in MS – but the relationship of EBV and the brain damage that can be seen on MRI scans had not been explored.”

In one study, one hundred thirty-five patients diagnosed with MS participated at University of Trieste’s Multiple Sclerosis Center. Researchers, led by Zivadinov, found definitively that higher levels of anti-EVB antibody measured at the study’s origin appeared to have a direct correlation to a decrease in both gray matter – and total brain volume – over the course of the three-year follow-up.With all this evidence these infections are ignored in patients with autoimmune disease and worse yet insurance companies fail to support their patients with proper treatments need to help patient treat infections and build immunity for health.

Virology of Epstein Barr

EBV is a DNA virus that multiplies within the nucleus of its host cells. It infects both B-cells and epithelial cells – establishing latent infections in the Bs and actually multiplying in the epithelials. Infected persons are then likely to produce virions (inert carriers of the EBV genome), carry and produce EBV-specific antibody, and harbor latently infected memory B-cells.  Ultimately, what we see from EBV is an extremely sophisticated technique for the virus to avoid and escape the host’s immune system defenses.

Bringing about Cancer

Recent studies have shown that among immunosuppressed patients, EBV is closely linked to B-cell malignancies such as Hodgkin’s lymphoma (HL) and lymphoproliferative disease. EBV and some T-cell lymphomas are also likely related, while other epithelial tumors such as gastric cancers can similarly develop. The presence of multiple extrachromosomal copies of the viral genome in tumor cells and the expression of part of the EBV genome, characterize these tumors.
