Does Port Hope Have Any Hope With Toxic Radiation Levels?

By David Baker

There is hope for the radiation problem that Port Hope has in my opinion. It's interesting how the health problem with environmental contamination in Port Hope has the residents more concerned with the appearance of economic impact then the possible risk for their health. As a concerned citizen of Cobourg which is quite close to Port Hope, I wonder if the health risk will become covered up by Port Hope's own representatives in favor of business interests such as land values and tourism. If I was personally in charge of the situation I would likely opt to quietly deal with the health risk as a priority to make sure there really isn't a risk of radiation contamination.

If the health concerns around toxic radiation in Port Hope are addressed and resolved as a priority then there will no longer be a negative impact on the economy. A good solution for addressing the health concerns is to make use of a formula which was created by Everett Storey who Albert Einstein had called a genius. Everette Storey was a prominent figure during World War II due to his invention of a water splitting technology which forces hydrogen molecules to separate from the water. This provided the missing link which made the hydrogen bomb a reality and was the same technology that Everett Storey later used to develop what would become known today as CellFood. The reason he developed the formula (CellFood) in the first place was that he was dying of toxic radiation poisoning. Everrett Storey went on to live a healthy full life free of toxic radiation.

What if Port Hope residents went on CellFood first, then have themselves tested? Their toxic radiation levels would then be well below the national average and they will then be able to claim Port Hope as a safe place to visit or live. If anything I would like to see this information ending up in the hands of Port Hope residents so they may make healthy choices about there environment.

Let's see what impact even just having 100 Port Hope people participate in having the levels of toxic radiation in their bodies lowered. 100 residents is a good number to test this solution with and a big enough number to have a media impact should this test be made public. To make this a valid study, participating Port Hope residents will need to have their levels of toxic radiation tested before, during and after being on CellFood for a period of time.

Toxic Radiation concerns in Port Hope will become a forgotten issue once this CellFood supplimentation plan goes full-scale. Once the test results go public demonstrating 100 out of 100 people showing a marked reduction in toxic radiation levels, the perception of Port Hope will change. Port Hope will no longer be seen as a hazardous place to live.

Cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy have reported a significant reduction of side effects while using CellFood in conjunction with their radioactive treatment. Part of chemotherapy involves ingesting a radioactive substance which causes many undesirable side effects. The cancer patient is internally subjected to radiation treatment which in effect is also poisoning his body with the same radiation. While using the CellFood the body is able to efficiently flush out the toxic radiation which normally causes undesirable side effects.

I am angry that politics and propaganda prevents CellFood from easily becoming a mainstream part of cancer patient treatment. What makes it so difficult is the insurmountable beaureaucratic FDA obstacles which favor the pharmaceutical over all alternate forms of treatment. Doctors are encouraged not to let you know that products such as CellFood exist. It's a tragedy that cancer patients are being poisoned with toxic radiation and having to undergo its adverse effects when treatments such as CellFood are available which are known to alleviate it's effects.

If the CellFood tests positive at removing toxic radiation from people's bodies effectively then Port Hope residents should be using it. The cost of treating the town of Port Hope would far offset the cost of lawsuits and medical claims. It would also be a demonstration of integrity by the company who takes responsability for the effect it's existance may be having on the local residents.

Prostate Cancer Symptoms

By Jessie Lupi

It is still unknown what really causes prostate cancer but several risk factors have been discovered like family history, race, age or high fat diet.

In order to avoid prostate cancer and to get treatment as early as possible it is not enough to watch out for prostate cancer symptoms. One you detect the symptoms, the cancer is already in an advanced stage. Therefore you must visit your doctor at fixed intervals even before you discover any symptoms.

After the cancer has broken out already, you could have symptoms like weak or interrupted urine flow, blood in the urine or a pain in the back, thighs or hips. There could also be a burning sensation.

It could be a matter of life or dead to detect the cancer as early as possible. The earlier the treatment starts the greater the chances of survival. Prostate cancer can be cured but only when it hasn't spread too much already.

Part of the diagnosis is a rectal examination by your doctor. He puts his finger in your rectum to find anything strange with your prostate gland. If he finds something then a blood test will be the next step. The doctor will want to check for PSA, a prostate specific antigen in the blood stream. If the concentration of PSA is very high, it is a strong sign of cancer.

Another test is the transrectal ultrasound which shows a pretty accurate picture of the prostate gland. This painless procedure can detect tumors within twenty minutes.

A biopsy is needed once the above tests indicate the occurrence of cancer. That means that the doctor must take a small sample of the tissue by using a needle. The sample is then checked under a microscope and if the sample is cancerous it is an exact diagnosis. The biopsy itself is a quick and rather painless method to diagnose prostate cancer.

If the cancer has spread to other parts of the body can be checked by x-ray, computer tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. It would be a bad sign if the cancer has reached the lungs already.

For the treatment of prostate cancer a urologist, oncologist and a surgeon is required. The surgery is the most common treatment option with the aim to totally remove cancer from the body. However, the surgery can have some serious side effects. This is why some prefer another therapy called cryosurgery which uses ultrasound and liquid nitrogen.

If treatment has started early enough then the prognosis is good. It is possible that the cancer could be completely removed. Statistics say that after five years more than 95% of men are still alive. The prognosis goes down significantly below 30% survival rate if the cancer was detected late.
