Throat cancer cases make up between 5 to 7 percent of all new cancer cases in the United States. The majority of throat cancer cases occur to people older than the age of 50. Twice as many men are diagnosed with throat cancer than women. Fortunately, the money spent on educating the public about throat cancer was well spent because the number of deaths due to throat cancer has been on the decline since the 1980s.

Throat cancer can develop anywhere in the throat such as the vocal cords or the glottis. The throat is a hollow tube that extends from the rear of the mouth to the esophagus. There are throat cancers that are more aggressive, depending on their location. Cancerous tumors that are located above or below the glottis spread more quickly than cancerous tumors located anywhere else. Throat cancer usually develops in the middle part of the throat, right behind the tongue. This area is called the oropharynx and is part of the pharynx. About 90 percent of throat cancers are squamous cell cancers. Squamous cells, such as skin and mucous membranes, are the surface cells that line the body. Squamous cell cancer is a form of cancer where tumors are located on squamous cells. These cancerous squamous cells can penetrate the deeper layers below the squamous layer and spread to other parts of the body. These cells can multiply and kill off healthy cells. If these cells are not prevented from multiplying, this condition can be fatal.

If you want to know whether or not you have throat cancer, you should familiarize yourself with some of the symptoms that might appear. If the symptoms are detected early enough, the throat cancer can be successfully treated. The purpose of the treatment will be to destroy the cancerous cells before they spread to the other parts of the body. The more common throat cancer symptoms include an enlarged lymph node on the outside of the neck, a persistent sore throat, difficulty swallowing or breathing, a change in the tone of your voice and a hoarseness in your voice. Other symptoms that you should look out for include blood in the saliva, a persistent earache or cough, nosebleeds and headaches. If the throat cancer spreads, the symptoms will get worse. A person facing this situation might have greater difficulties breathing or swallowing. This person might also lose their voice or ability to speak. His or her face might look disfigured and their skin might look deformed. At this stage, the throat cancer can be very difficult to treat.

Medical researchers have been unable to identify the precise cause of throat cancer. However, they have been able to determine that tobacco can cause damage to the cells in the lining of the throat. A tumor can form if enough of these damaged cells accumulate. They have also been able to determine that alcohol makes it easier for tobacco to damage these cells. This is why a person who both smokes and drinks is more likely to get throat cancer than someone who only smokes. Numerous studies also indicate that long-term exposure to asbestos, diesel fuel, or coal dust can also increase your chances of getting throat cancer.

Noni Juice has been hailed as one of the most important health food supplements of our time. Studies show that it can help with a number of different existing health conditions including allergies, asthma, and skin conditions, cancers. Moreover, research is increasingly showing that regular use of Noni Juice products may be able to prevent certain health conditions, leading to a better quality of life as well as longer life for many people.

One of the primary ingredient bases for every Noni Juice company, though, is the Noni fruit itself. Noni, also called Morinda citrifolia, grows naturally in most island climates. Dr. Ralph Heinicke, a biochemist, discovered that the Noni fruit contains high levels of proxeronine, a precursor to xeronine, an alkaloid the human body can use to actually heal cells. Xeronine regulates the rigidity and shape of different proteins. According to Dr. Heinicke, high blood pressure, menstrual cramps, arthritis, gastric ulcers, sprains, injuries, mental depression, senility, poor digestion, atherosclerosis, blood vessel problems, drug addiction, and pain are only some of the conditions Xeronine can help.Proxeronine is the precursor to Xeronine in the body, meaning that it becomes Xeronine in the intestines when it comes into contact with a particular enzyme. According to Dr. Heinicke, both Proxeronine and this enzyme are abundant in Noni juice. The body does produce Xeronine, its production is fairly low and varies according to environmental conditions and the person’s mental and emotional state. For example, the more stress and negative emotions one experiences, the less Xeronine the body will produce.

A study done by Dr. James A. Duke, the world renowned ethno botanist, who spent 30 years with the USDA, shows that Morinda Citrifolia (Noni) has 15 separate chemicals that are Cancer-Preventive. He also found out that it has:
15 Cancer-Preventive properties some of which are as follows
Antitumor (Breast) ,Antitumor (Cervix) ,Antitumor (Colon) ,Antitumor (GI) Antitumor (Lung) ,Antitumor (Pancreas) ,Antitumor (Prostate) ,Antitumor (Stomach) Antiulcer

Another of the most important Noni Juice ingredients for many companies is other fruit juices. Naturally occuring, the Noni fruit tastes quite poorly. In fact, most companies have found that if the Noni is not blended with other naturally occurring ingredients, many consumers simply won’t drink the product because it tastes so horrible. As a result, many companies blend it with a number of other juices to round out their Noni Juice ingredients listing. Most companies choose to use apple juice, pear juice, or beet juice to make the taste a bit easier to swallow.
Sweetener is one of the final most important Noni Juice ingredients for some companies. Most choose to use a natural sweetener. Honey is very popular. Many companies choose to completely avoid sweeteners that might have adverse health effects like refined white sugar.

Even while protesting loudly the envision of cancer cells, it is imperative that one create a sacred place within themselves to reflect, discern, challenge, reject, greave, rage, weep and ultimately meet the antagonist. By no means should this suggestion be taken as resignation or acceptance of the invasive cancer cells, but rather, an acknowledgment of an unwelcome guest in our midst. Only then, in a place of calm can we regain our strength and strategize our next course of action. What we resist persist. Resisting anything not only keeps it present but many make it primary over healing. Meet the opponent just long enough to ask what they want; remembering at all times that cancer is NOT personal to any one individual. The wayward cells just want a place to thrive. Dr. Lewis Thomas says “Disease usually results from inconclusive negotiations for symbiosis, and overstepping of the line by one side or the other, a biologic misinterpretation of borders”. The Lives of a Cell. (Pg.76)

Let the cancer cells know that you bless them on their journey but they are absolutely NOT welcome in your body. A breast cancer diagnoses is not necessarily a death sentence and can truly be an opportunity in disguise in terms of a profound occasion to do soul work. Seek to uncover the soul treasures that will enviably be gained if one has the eyes to see and the ears to hear. Following are some suggestions to forward the journey:

1).What will be the effect of cancer on my Emotional wellbeing?

Journal, Journal, Journal. Find out if you are feeling depressed, rageful, singled out, victimized, self-pitting, sinful, shameful, a burden, unfeminine, mutilated, terrified, unworthy or feeling punished by God. ALL feelings are welcome but they need to be acknowledged and honored. Work with these thoughts, feelings, and beliefs because they comprise the pathways to our soul work.

2).What will the effects of cancer be on my Spiritual Life?

A cancer diagnoses can create a spiritual crisis. Feeling abandoned by God, rejected or even punished. This may evoke anger and/or shake the foundation of a previously strong and unquestionable faith. Listen, I have had to put down a precious 8 month old cat with a cancer tumor. I am certain God was not angry at that cat. Cancer is not personal. One does not get cancer to be taught a lesson or for purposes of punishment. However, now that the challenge has presented itself to deal with, a dark night of the soul, if you will, then use this experience for personal growth. Ask the God of your understanding daily, with grace and dignity, what would you have me learn from this experience? I promise you that your spirit with soar in ways that you could never have imagined. And if you think that I came to this place of wisdom with grace and maturity read on. One day while starting my long standing ritual of vitamin ingestion, I smashed them all over the bathroom counters and onto the floor yelling something very profound like” I have been faithful to you, you little Sob’s, I will never take any of you again so just take that as I proceeded to ground them into my lovely carpet.

3).What will be the effects of cancer on my Physical health?

Exercise no matter what. If this is difficult for you during chemotherapy due to low energy then at the very least get a step meter and increase the amount of your steps every day if only walking around the house or to the mail box and back. Swimming kept my arm from atrophying in a permanent rounded position after the mastectomy. Because of swimming I am left with perfect range of motion. I did this throughout my radiation treatments at a public pool. I never once got sick despite my desperately low white blood count.

4).What will be the effect of cancer on my Body Image?

I bought cute hats, scarves and wigs prior to losing my hair. After the surgery you will have many options for reconstruction or chose not to as I did. Nevertheless, I adore sexy bras and low cut shirts’ which I can still wear and which continues to give the appearance of cleavage. Lots and lots of options out there.

5). What will be the effect of cancer on my diet?

There are excellent books that will guide you to a healthier way of eating that feels right to you. One such book is Food as Medicine. (Mary Tagliaferri, M.D. L.A.c.) I have heard it told that cancer cells love fat and sugar. I do know that food is our fuel source so it behooves us to become more conscientious and monitor the quality of that source. However, I am not a doctor so seek out the experts. While working within the medical model of treatment I also sought guidance from a naturopath that supported my treatment with very specific Vitamins.

6).What will be the effect of cancer on my Social Life?

Cancer diagnoses and the protracted treatment process is a vulnerable and tender time. Consider carefully who you chose to walk with you during your treatment process. I struggled with several aggressive people who wanted to make me their project. That did not feel like it was about me but rather about them. Other well meaning people would call sobbing about their fears for me. I often felt that I had to comfort them which was exhausting. I needed every bit of energy for myself. Control your bounders well by saying simply things like “thanks for calling but I just do not have the energy for talking at this time”. Also, people truly wanted to be giving and some way to help me so I asked for cards in the mail.

7). What will be the effect of cancer on my spare time or Hobbies?

I once attended a conference on neuroscience. The keynote speaker talked about the imperativeness of doing the simple things that we love doing. She emphasized that she was not talking about soul searching, follow your bliss kind of career choices but rather simple things like planting flowers or number painting. Her point was that there are parts of our brain that continue to grow new pathways but will follow the path of depression just as easily as a path of joy. What a wonderful time to put together those old photo albums, stamp collections or sewing projects. I picked up my harmonica again. USE YOUR MIND AND BODY AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE.

8).What will be the effect of cancer on my financial situation?

Do you have insurance, a church group that would be willing to help with finances? Ask for any suggestion from your treatment team as there are some alternative monies available. I was extremely pro-active in all areas of my treatment which tended to be supportive of my mental and emotional well being. Advocate for yourself. Try calling Patient Advocate Foundation, 800-532-5274. This organization serves as an active liaison between patient and insurer, employer, and/or creditors to resolve insurance, job discrimination, and/or debt crisis matters to help patients maintain access to care, etc. It can also help direct you to a case manager for possible financial assistance in your area.

9).What will the effects of cancer be on my Partner, children, extended family?

There are some excellent FREE step by step lititure booklets at cancer centers on how to help family members through your treatment process. Also, ask for help. Find out who would be willing to bring dinner on certain nights, who would be willing to drive you to your treatments and doctor appointments? This is no time for self-indulgent rugged individualism. If asking for help is difficult for you then perhaps that is one of your personal growth areas. This is what I mean by using every emotion and belief that presents itself to you as an opportunity for personal growth.
