GMOs cause cancer
GMO (genetically modified organism) is an organism whose genotype has been artificially changed. People have been breeding GMOs for quite a long time. One of the main methods for obtaining GMOs is selection.
At the moment, there are no studies that the consumption of GMOs leads to the development of cancer.
Thus, GMOs do not lead to the development of cancer; science has not proven otherwise.
Breast implants lead to breast cancer
In fact, women who have and those who do not have implants are equally at risk for breast cancer.
But there is a very rare disease - anaplastic large cell lymphoma of the breast. This is not a disease of the breast tissue, but of the lymph nodes. And it is the presence of breast implants that influences the development of this disease.
The basic risk of developing this disease is three per 100,000,000 cases, and the risk of development in the presence of implants is already 203 per 100,000,000 cases, i.e. the risk increases by 67 times. However, the absolute incidence of this disease is extremely small.
Thus, breast implants are not associated with breast cancer, but do increase the risk of breast lymphoma.
Elder Paisius of the Holy Mountain. "Spiritual Magnet" on Mount Athos
Paisiy returned to Mount Athos only in 1964. Two years later he became seriously ill and lost a large part of his lung. But this did not stop the elder from becoming a real “spiritual magnet” for believers and receiving all the suffering in his cell in Kutlumush for days on end. Thousands of people came to Paisius with their problems and hardships, knowing for sure that he would drive away sorrow, give relief to the soul and fill it with hope and faith. The elder greeted each guest cordially, offered him a mug of cold water and a piece of sweet delight, and saw him off with good advice and prayer. Despite poor health and fatigue, strengthened by divine grace and prayer, the elder never refused anyone. People considered him a saint. The elder himself sincerely recognized himself as the last sinner, a reproach of people, as Christ bequeathed to his disciples: “Whoever wants to be great among you, let him be a servant of all...” Father Paisius found a place for each person in his heart. Someone else's pain was his own. The elder had the gift of hot, fiery, tearful prayer. He prayed for all those suffering, traveling, and captives. It pained him to see people suffering and tormented by their sins. The elder always repeated that only in humility can a person find happiness and peace, in the words of Christ: “Come and learn from Me, for I am meek and lowly in heart, and find peace for your souls...” Humility is the basis of all virtues, only it can save .
St. Paisiy Svyatogorets: A Word about Women
Unpublished statements. The respected hermit of our time, Elder Paisios devoted a lot of time to caring for women. So, in one of his conversations with nuns he spoke about women, we convey the story from Archimandrite. Ioannicia.
If a person renounces all vanity within himself, then his mind is necessarily focused on God. You women can more easily surrender yourself to God because you have your heart as an assistant.
It’s more difficult for men to do this because logic gets in the way. They locked themselves with a bolt and disappeared, and the women’s heart led them to Golgotha and to the Holy Sepulcher. However, you are in danger of wasting it on trifles. You easily give your heart to trivial and vain things, and in the end you have nothing left for Christ.
The necessary clothes are not enough for you, but along with the necessary things you want to buy beautiful, decorated, pleasant ones. You would like some glass better if it had a flower on it. On the table there is an embroidered tablecloth, the table and chairs are carved, etc.
So the heart is scattered. Don't waste it...
Women, both in ordinary life, love delicate work, and in spiritual life they strive for refined activities, engage in subtleties and give room for the devil to do his subtle work and cause harm.
So do not give your heart to vanity, but dedicate it to God. Don't get stuck in the little things, but make your feat simpler, starting with the most noticeable, so as not to give in to despair.
If coarse passions are cut off, then more subtle ones will be cut off and destroyed more easily. Do not think about your former life and the mistakes of your youth, because new paths and new books have opened before you.
Live in an atmosphere of constant praise and gratitude to God, because the greatest sin is ingratitude and the worst sinner is an ungrateful person.
A woman has a lot of love. But the devil poisons this love and turns it into jealousy. A woman loves herself very much. Our personality suffers greatly from such love.
If we rid ourselves of love for ourselves, then all love will remain for Christ and our neighbors. When a man is jealous, he comes to the point that he does not want to see the other. When a woman is jealous, she does not calm down until her rival is destroyed.
Behind human disagreement lies God's agreement. For example, in a married couple, different characters create harmony. Therefore, the world is designed in such a way that women, with the help of the wealth of their hearts, must lead men to God.

A cancer diagnosis is a death sentence. This myth is quite common and has already become a stereotype for people who are faced with the disease. Previously, such cases actually occurred. When diagnosing the disease was difficult, and many modern technologies did not yet exist, people could “burn out” from cancer in a few weeks. Now is a different time, innovative methods for identifying pathology and modern medicines to combat it have appeared. But the existing stereotype still destroys people's hope for a positive outcome of the disease. Often, it is precisely because of this belief that people are afraid to see a doctor and undergo an examination, thus postponing the diagnosis of the disease until the advanced stages, or refuse treatment altogether.
It is very important not to ignore symptoms that may indicate cancer. For example, unexplained weight loss, lumps on the chest, or skin changes (the appearance of age spots or changes in moles) should alert you and be a reason to see a doctor. Generally, the earlier cancer is diagnosed, the better the chances of effective treatment. Cancer is devastating, but not hopeless.
Today, there are many effective screening methods for detecting cancer. Even if the pathology is detected at a late stage and cannot be treated, therapy can help significantly improve the patient’s quality of life and prolong it.
Antiperspirant use leads to breast cancer
A study was conducted in which 813 women aged 20 to 74 years with breast cancer took part.
According to this study, the use of antiperspirants is absolutely not associated with the development of breast cancer.
Subsequently, several more studies were conducted that similarly confirmed the absence of a cause-and-effect relationship between the occurrence of breast cancer and the use of antiperspirants.
Thus, there is currently no evidence linking the use of antiperspirants and the occurrence of breast cancer.
Paisiy Svyatogorets - How to break witchcraft
Description of material:
Elder Paisios the Holy Mountain - How can witchcraft be destroyed (Volume III. Spiritual struggle). Paisios the Holy Mountain (1924 - 1994, Greece) - one of the most respected Greek elders and spiritual luminaries of the Greek people of the 20th century, a monk of Mount Athos, known for his spiritual instructions and ascetic life. A simple monk, having received only a rudimentary education in primary school, but generously endowed with wisdom according to God, he truly exhausted himself for the sake of his neighbor. His teaching was not preaching or catechism. He lived the Gospel himself, and the teachings flowed from his own life, the hallmark of which was love. He “formed himself” according to the Gospel and therefore, first of all, he taught us with his entire appearance, and only after that - with his gospel love and God-enlightened word. When meeting people who were so different from each other, the Elder did not just patiently listen to what they told him. With his characteristic holy simplicity and reasoning, he penetrated into the very depths of their hearts. The Elder made their pain, their anxiety, their difficulties his own. And then, in an inconspicuous way, a miracle happened - a change in man. “God,” said the Elder, “works a miracle when we heartily participate in the pain of another person.” Elder Paisios Svyatogorets is revered in Greece, as in Russia the Venerable. Seraphim of Sarov. Here are the final words of Elder Paisius himself: “I am the monk Paisius, having examined my life, I saw that I had transgressed all the commandments of the Lord, that I had committed all sins. And it doesn’t matter if I committed some of these sins to a lesser extent, because I have no extenuating circumstances at all, since the Lord has shown me great benefits. Pray that Christ will have mercy on me. Forgive me, and may all those who think that they have upset me in some way be forgiven... I am very grateful and again I ask you to pray.” Let us repeat, following the request of Elder Paisius, the short words of the prayer: “Jesus, the All-Merciful Judge, vouchsafe the sweetness of paradise Thy servant."
What is precancer
In addition to the first symptoms of cancer, there are so-called background and precancerous diseases. Background diseases are pathological processes as a result of which tissues or organs may be predisposed to the appearance of a tumor. Precancerous diseases are a series of changes that can eventually develop into cancer. For each organ, a list of such conditions has been developed. Here are some of them:
- Oral mucosa : leukoplakia, ulcers, cracks, erosions, papillomas.
- Larynx and nasopharynx : papillomas, pachydermia, leukokeratosis, leukoplakia, various growths of fibrous, connective, glandular tissue (fibroma, adenoma, chondroma).
- Thyroid gland : diffuse goiter, nodular goiter.
- Skin : long-term non-healing fistulas, scars, ulcers, age spots and warts (especially injured ones), pigmentary xerodelia, chronic cracks and macerations, skin development abnormalities, senile keratosis.
- Mammary glands : diffuse or focal mastopathy.
- Stomach : gastritis, especially chronic atrophic, chronic ulcerative process.
- Colon and rectum : chronic ulcerative colitis, long-term non-healing fissures, fistulas, single polyps, scars.
- Bladder, prostate gland : papillomas, chronic inflammatory process, glandular growths (adenomas).
- Female reproductive system : leuko- and erythroplakia, polyps, hyperplasia, adenomatosis, condillomas, benign tumors, cicatricial deformities of the vaginal walls, erosions, true and false, ectropion of the cervix, recurrent polyposis of the uterine cavity, fibroids and fibroids.
Paisiy Svyatogorets about the illness of children. №45 (366) / December 1 '05
Diseases help people - Geronda, what does the expression “good heaven to you” mean?
- Have a good trip to Paradise. - Geronda, maybe this expression means: “I wish you to be in a good Paradise”? -Have you ever heard anyone talk about Paradise being unkind? But be that as it may, in order to get to the sweet Paradise, a person must taste a lot of bitter things in this life. This way he will receive a “foreign passport” of the tests he has passed. What's going on in hospitals! What tragedies! What pain people have! How many unfortunate mothers, going to surgery, think about their children and are tormented by worry about their family! How many fathers suffer from cancer, undergo radiation therapy, and how they suffer! These people cannot work, but they have to pay for housing, because they have so many expenses! Here others, being in excellent health, still cannot cope with expenses, and what can we say about those who are sick and at the same time exhausted, working in order to somehow cope with their family expenses. I am terribly oppressed by human grief. So many things I hear every day! Endless torment, difficulties!... All day long my mouth is filled with bitterness from human grief, and in the evening I go hungry to rest a little. I experience enormous bodily fatigue, but at the same time I also receive inner relaxation. – Geronda, does illness always benefit a person? – Yes, it always brings great benefits. Diseases help people who have no virtues to appease God. Health is a big thing, but the good that illness brings to a person, health cannot give him! Illness brings spiritual good to a person. Illness is a great, great blessing. It cleanses a person from sin, and sometimes “guarantees” a reward for him. The human soul is like gold, and illness is like fire, which purifies this gold. Look, Christ also said to the Apostle Paul: “My power is made perfect in weakness.” The more a person suffers from illness, the purer and more holy he becomes - as long as he endures and accepts the illness with joy. The only thing that is needed in some diseases is a little patience. God allows illness so that a person receives a small reward, and through this illness God cleanses a person from his existing shortcomings. After all, physical illness helps in healing mental illness. Physical illness brings humility to a person and thus neutralizes his mental illness. God benefits from everything for the good of man! Everything that He allows benefits us spiritually. He knows what each of us needs, and in accordance with this he gives us illness, either so that we accept a bribe for it, or so that we pay for some sins.
Frequent use of mobile phones affects the development of tumors
Why did such a myth arise? The researchers explain:
- radio waves are absorbed by biological tissues, i.e. radiation affects the cells of our body;
- the number of mobile phones is increasing every year;
- The time spent using mobile phones is increasing as communications have become more accessible, widespread and cheaper;
- the number and duration of calls increases.
The researchers had the idea to test experimentally whether the occurrence of brain tumors is really associated with the use of mobile phones.
The INTERPHONE study involved more than 5 thousand people with brain tumors. Experts collected data on the frequency of use of mobile phones by patients. It turned out that there is no cause-and-effect relationship between the occurrence of a brain tumor and the use of a mobile phone.
Leading organizations in the world such as the American Cancer Society, National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, Food and Drug Administration (FDA), CDC (Department of Health and Human Services, USA) have expressed their opinion that mobile phones are completely safe.
Thus, the occurrence of brain tumors is not associated with the use of mobile phones; gadgets do not even increase the risk of cancer.
