i eat 2 bananas per day but im not sure it has enough fibre in it. now i added 1 piece of apple to my daily diet. is that enough?

I have been researching diet for cancer patients (see more on www.after-cancer.com) and you need to eat more fruit and veg.

Doctors recommend AT LEAST five portions a day – veg. are better, but fruit is good. Why not snack on carrots sticks, cucumber, cherry tomatoes etc?

But no diet can prevent cancer – all it can do is make you healthier so that if cancer comes, you are better able to recover. There is a lot of research that says that fruit and veg might prevent colon cancer, but so far no-one has come up with a definitive statement.

The disease I got assigned is colon cancer, and i can’t find what kind of genetic disorder it is. Would someone please inform me

Hi Ray. Below are a few links to scientific papers on heritable (genetic) types of colon cancer. They should give you a good start on your research.

I’ve done some research and read a few answers here on yahoo. Everyone is saying that this is "a death sentence". I was wondering if anyone knows how long the average life expectancy is of someone with stage four colon cancer…it has spread to the liver and lungs as well.

I dont like putting a date on these kinds of situations, but unfortunately this type of Cancer can be particularly savage and can be quite swift, in as far as some as the cases i have seen and been involved with, (i am a community care worker) Some i have been involved with, can hold on for 3 or 4 years if they are quite healthy, if not they can go as quickly as 6 months from diagnosis…….I apologize for being the bearer of bad news, but the best you can do for your dad is to be there for him, allow him that time to greive, the greiving process is goind to take him through some pretty strong emotions, so you are really going to need to be there for him during this stage, even if you are dealing with your own issues in regards to grief….. and to be close to all of his family, hold his hand when he wants to, and just let him know you love him……other than that i can offer some website that will also give you some pointers as to how to deal with this issue.

They are…….Paliative care explained…involves grief processes and how to deal with death…..

There are many breast cancer charities, but not many for other specialties. Please provide sourcing if you can so I can verify that information is correct!

It is estimated that there will be more than 108,000 new cases of colon cancer in 2008 and more than 49,000 deaths from colon and rectal cancer combined. Caught early, it is often curable.

TGen researchers are working to identify the underlying genetic components of colon cancer. This information could one day yield new insights in the development of more effective strategies for early detection, prevention and treatment of this terrible disease.

The prostate is a small structure, size of nuts, leading to a system for the reproduction of human beings, it surrounds the urethra, the tube, with the urine from the body – there may be various problems with urination. At the start of prostate cancer is limited to the prostate itself, the majority of patients with this type of cancer live for years without problems. Recognized in its infancy, prostate cancer can be effectively treated and cured.
