Alternative cancer therapies 
What's out there, what might work and what probably doesn't from a cancer support society. Herbs, vitamins and relaxation can assist patients, but none of these alone or in excess are convincing cures for cancer.
Environmental carcinogens
Thousands of causative cancer causes; the US NIH's list of most likely risk factors include smoking, asbestos, and wood dust.
Potatoes and cancer
Frying or baking potatoes above 120 C also increases DNA-adduct binding acrylamide with cancer causing potential.
Meat and cancer
Heating meat above 150 C form heterocyclic amines and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons that are broken down to cancerous DNA-adduct forming aromatic compounds.
Pesticides in foods
Disease risk from pesticides is real but yet to be confirmed from quantities in produce. Washing well with tap water and discarding outer layers of fruits and vegetables can minimise the risk.
Mobile phones and cancer
"Electromagnetic fields produced by mobile phones are classified by the International Agency for Research on Cancer as possibly carcinogenic to humans."
Sleep deprivation and dementia
Missing one night of sleep can cause a detectable increase in Alzheimer’s protein.
Meditation
Positive physiological changes to mental and medical health.
Approved cell & gene therapies
The latest emerging US FDA approved cell and genetic therapeutics.

Laboratory animals
"More than 100 million mice and rats are killed in U.S. laboratories every year." Is the information generated worth the price in animal welfare?
