Sadly, because of we cling to this confrontational mindset, recovering cancer becomes very difficult.The term cancer can actually be described as a vast number of different phenomenons, all resulting from the same regular problem: there is a malfunction with the instructions held within the DNA of a cell.The natural process of life to make sure that a large portion of our cells are replaced as they wear out. According to many estimates, almost 100% of our cells are different today than they were last year. Many of these cells are simply the duplications of previous cells, which are constantly dividing.This duplication is what enables us to live as long as we do, as damaged and worn out cells are replaced with new and healthy cells.
