The Immune System Is Your Body’s Defense Against Cancer, by Dr. Joseph Mercola

Take good care of your immune system and it will take good care of you. From Dr. Joseph Mercola at mercola.com:

Story at-a-glance

• Cancer is affecting younger individuals more than before. There’s even a case wherein a 13-year-old has developed metastatic pancreatic cancer
• Inflammation plays a central role in cancer development, with poor diet, environmental chemicals, and persistent viral infections contributing to immune system suppression
• The COVID-19 jab contributes to cancer risk through persistent inflammation from spike proteins
• Your immune system, particularly T-cells and natural killer cells, is crucial for fighting cancer
• Practical preventative measures include eating whole foods instead of processed foods, reducing chemical exposure, maintaining proper sleep, and avoiding mRNA shots

Cancer was once viewed as a disease that rarely surfaced in younger individuals, but today, that assumption no longer holds. So, what makes the current cancer trend so alarming? This, along with other topics, was discussed by Dr. Patrick Soon-Shiong, a surgeon and businessman, in an interview with Tucker Carlson, featured above.¹

Most arguments about cancer center on genetic predisposition or external carcinogens like cigarettes. That conversation has merit, but it misses a key piece of the picture — your body’s own immune defenses. The bigger story involves strengthening the body’s protective mechanisms, and avoiding repeated hits to those defenses that allow cancer cells to take hold.

Investigating the Root Cause

Younger individuals once escaped the worst forms of cancer, but that has changed. Soon-Shiong tells the story of a case of a 13-year-old with metastatic pancreatic cancer, which in the past was basically unheard of. A growing body of clinical observation suggests that these cancers progress faster than older standards would predict, prompting doctors to label them “turbocharged” tumors.
