The Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center cautions, "alkaloids extracted from graviola may cause neuronal dysfunction and degeneration leading to symptoms of Parkinson's disease". The compound annonacin, which is contained in the seeds of soursop, is a neurotoxin associated with neurodegenerative disease, and research has suggested a connection between consumption of soursop and atypical forms of Parkinson's disease due to high concentrations of annonacin.
The Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center list cancer treatment as one of the "purported uses" of soursop. According to Cancer Research UK, "Many sites on the internet advertise and promote graviola capsules as a cancer cure, but none of them are supported by any reputable scientific cancer organisations" and "there is no evidence to show that graviola works as a cure for cancer" and consequently they do not support its use as a treatment for cancer.
In 2008 a court case relating to the sale in the UK of Triamazon, a soursop product, resulted in the criminal conviction of a man under the terms of the UK Cancer Act for offering to treat people for cancer. A spokesman for the council that instigated the action stated, "it is as important now as it ever was that people are protected from those peddling unproven products with spurious claims as to their effects."
The Federal Trade Commission in the United States determined that there was "no credible scientific evidence" that the extract of soursop sold by Bioque Technologies "can prevent, cure, or treat cancer of any kind."

Whilst in the UK visiting my grand- children I was diagnosed with benign prostatic hyperplasia & after several blood tests I was also diagnosed with Prostate Cancer.
The consultant wanted to operate on my penis....I totally objected to his advice....the penis has nothing to do with the prostate.
I insisted that I would not have any operation.
I will treat myself and return in a month time for another complete blood test.
To test his knowledge of Prostate cancer, I asked the consultant if he knew how & why Prostate enlargement & cancer occurred in men.
His answer: From eating to much spicy foods.
This I knew was totally untrue so I excused myself from his office with a fitted Long Term Foley Catheter.
This Indian consultant was not aware that I practised Holistic Medicine.
Coarse of Self-Treatment:-
My 1st task was to Alkaline my Blood naturally (Cancer cannot grow in an alkaline medium).
A weekly dose of:-
1x teaspoon of Molasses & 1x teaspoon of Bicarbonate of Soda mixed in Water.
My Diet consisted of earth foods only & lots of fruits.
It has been scientifically proven that synthetic oestrogen in the food chain is one of the major factors in Prostate growth in men.
The importation & consumption of these factory farm animals whom are routinely injected with growth hormones & anti-biotic can be view as the DE-factor in Prostate Enlargement.
All milk products- cheese,milk & butter, also hams,bacon,eggs,sausage & soda drinks must be completely excluded from ones diet.
A month later I returned to the hospital to remove the Catheter & have my blood test.
Results: Prostate back to normal & CANCER free.
Later at the meeting with the Consultant I lambasted him for malpractice.
I asked him "In China & especially in India, isn't their diet full of different spices? Then how come the male population hasn't died out from Prostate enlargement.
He smiled and humbly apologized for his statement.
I am now into my 2nd year free of any re-occurrence of the either symptoms.
p.s Biocath Ref: D226412 was used.

Spike in Harm to Liver Is Tied to Dietary Aids
Michael Stravato for The New York Times
Christopher Herrera and his mother, Lordes Gonzalez, at home in Katy, Tex. A green tea extract nearly cost Christopher his liver.
By ANAHAD O’CONNOR
Published: December 21, 2013
When Christopher Herrera, 17, walked into the emergency room at Texas Children’s Hospital one morning last year, his chest, face and eyes were bright yellow — “almost highlighter yellow,” recalled Dr. Shreena S. Patel, the pediatric resident who treated him.

About 55,000 dietary supplements, largely unregulated, are sold in the United States.
Christopher, a high school student from Katy, Tex., suffered severe liver damage after using a concentrated green tea extract he bought at a nutrition store as a “fat burning” supplement. The damage was so extensive that he was put on the waiting list for a liver transplant.
“It was terrifying,” he said in an interview. “They kept telling me they had the best surgeons, and they were trying to comfort me. But they were saying that I needed a new liver and that my body could reject it.”
New data suggests that his is not an isolated case. Dietary supplements account for nearly 20 percent of drug-related liver injuries that turn up in hospitals, up from 7 percent a decade ago, according to an analysis by a national network of liver specialists. The research included only the most severe cases of liver damage referred to a representative group of hospitals around the country, and the investigators said they were undercounting the actual number of cases.
While many patients recover once they stop taking the supplements and receive treatment, a few require liver transplants or die because of liver failure. Naïve teenagers are not the only consumers at risk, the researchers said. Many are middle-aged women who turn to dietary supplements that promise to burn fat or speed up weight loss.
“It’s really the Wild West,” said Dr. Herbert L. Bonkovsky, the director of the liver, digestive and metabolic disorders laboratory at Carolinas HealthCare System in Charlotte, N.C. “When people buy these dietary supplements, it’s anybody’s guess as to what they’re getting.”
Though doctors were able to save his liver, Christopher can no longer play sports, spend much time outdoors or exert himself, lest he strain the organ. He must make monthly visits to a doctor to assess his liver function.
Americans spend an estimated $32 billion on dietary supplements every year, attracted by unproven claims that various pills and powders will help them lose weight, build muscle and fight off everything from colds to chronic illnesses. About half of Americans use dietary supplements, and most of them take more than one product at a time.
Dr. Victor Navarro, the chairman of the hepatology division at Einstein Healthcare Network in Philadelphia, said that while liver injuries linked to supplements were alarming, he believed that a majority of supplements were generally safe. Most of the liver injuries tracked by a network of medical officials are caused by prescription drugs used to treat things like cancer, diabetes and heart disease, he said.
But the supplement business is largely unregulated. In recent years, critics of the industry have called for measures that would force companies to prove that their products are safe, genuine and made in accordance with strict manufacturing standards before they reach the market.
But a federal law enacted in 1994, the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act, prevents the Food and Drug Administration from approving or evaluating most supplements before they are sold. Usually the agency must wait until consumers are harmed before officials can remove products from stores. Because the supplement industry operates on the honor system, studies show, the market has been flooded with products that are adulterated, mislabeled or packaged in dosages that have not been studied for safety.
The new research found that many of the products implicated in liver injuries were bodybuilding supplements spiked with unlisted steroids, and herbal pills and powders promising to increase energy and help consumers lose weight.
“There unfortunately are criminals that feel it’s a business opportunity to spike some products and sell them as dietary supplements,” said Duffy MacKay, a spokesman for the Council for Responsible Nutrition, a supplement industry trade group. “It’s the fringe of the industry, but as you can see, it is affecting some consumers.” More popular supplements like vitamins, minerals, probiotics and fish oil had not been linked to “patterns of adverse effects,” he said.
The F.D.A. estimates that 70 percent of dietary supplement companies are not following basic quality control standards that would help prevent adulteration of their products. Of about 55,000 supplements that are sold in the United States, only 170 — about 0.3 percent — have been studied closely enough to determine their common side effects, said Dr. Paul A. Offit, the chief of infectious diseases at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia and an expert on dietary supplements.
“When a product is regulated, you know the benefits and the risks and you can make an informed decision about whether or not to take it,” he said. “With supplements, you don’t have efficacy data and you don’t have safety data, so it’s just a black box.”
Since 2008, the F.D.A. has been taking action against companies whose supplements are found to contain prescription drugs and controlled substances, said Daniel Fabricant, the director of the division of dietary supplement programs in the agency’s Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition. For example, the agency recently took steps to remove one “fat burning” product from shelves, OxyElite Pro, that was linked to one death and dozens of cases of hepatitis and liver injury in Hawaii and other states.
The new research, presented last month at a conference in Washington, was produced by the Drug-Induced Liver Injury Network, which was established by the National Institutes of Health to track patients who suffer liver damage from certain drugs and alternative medicines. It includes doctors at eight major hospitals throughout the country.
The investigators looked at 845 patients with severe, drug-induced liver damage who were treated at hospitals in the network from 2004 to 2012. It focused only on cases where the investigators ruled out other causes and blamed a drug or a supplement with a high degree of certainty.
When the network began tracking liver injuries in 2004, supplements accounted for 7 percent of the 115 severe cases. But the percentage has steadily risen, reaching 20 percent of the 313 cases recorded from 2010 to 2012.
Those patients included dozens of young men who were sickened by bodybuilding supplements. The patients all fit a similar profile, said Dr. Navarro, an investigator with the network.
“They become very jaundiced for long periods of time,” he said. “They itch really badly, to the point where they can’t sleep. They lose weight. They lose work. I had one patient who was jaundiced for six months.”
Tests showed that a third of the implicated products contained steroids not listed on their labels.
A second trend emerged when Dr. Navarro and his colleagues studied 85 patients with liver injuries linked to herbal pills and powders. Two-thirds were middle-aged women, on average 48 years old, who often used the supplements to lose weight or increase energy. Nearly a dozen of those patients required liver transplants, and three died.
It was not always clear what the underlying causes of injury were in those cases, in part because patients frequently combined multiple supplements and used products with up to 30 ingredients, said Dr. Bonkovsky, an investigator with the network.
But one product that patients used frequently was green tea extract, which contains catechins, a group of potent antioxidants that reputedly increase metabolism. The extracts are often marketed as fat burners, and catechins are often added to weight-loss products and energy boosters. Most green tea pills are highly concentrated, containing many times the amount of catechins found in a single cup of green tea, Dr. Bonkovsky said. In high doses, catechins can be toxic to the liver, he said, and a small percentage of people appear to be particularly susceptible.
But liver injuries attributed to herbal supplements are more likely to be severe and to result in liver transplants, Dr. Navarro said. And unlike prescription drugs, which are tightly regulated, dietary supplements typically carry no information about side effects. Consumers assume they have been studied and tested, Dr. Bonkovsky said. But that is rarely the case. “There is this belief that if something is natural, then it must be safe and it must be good,” he said.

Advice I've taken on-board from a book promotion many year ago in London which I can share with you:-
Take control of your health.
Knowledge puts you in charge of your own body and Health.
Prevent anyone from exploiting your ignorance to jeopardize your health and wellbeing.
Know the right questions to ask when you are speaking to Doctors.
Learn the small changes to your diet that can forestall the need for treatment.
Learn which nutritional supplements are truly effective and which are scams.
Save a ton of money by knowing which medical treatments should be avoided.
Avoid the cost, pain and negative consequences of having unnecessary medical treatments.
Information is deliberately suppressed by those who profit from Prostate disease.
Why would anybody want to suppress health information? Well the best way to understand that is follow the money.
Treating Prostate disease is a Multi-Billion dollars a year business.
Pharmaceutical Corporations, Medical equipment manufacturers, Hospitals, Surgeons, Oncologists, Urologists, Doctors, Radiologists all want to profit from your Prostate.
Do you think if there were an easier, safer and less expensive way to deal with your Prostate that they would want you to know about that? No way!
Things are just fine as far as they are concerned. They are all riding the gravy train.

Prostate Cancer in African-American Men
African-American men are both more likely to be diagnosed with prostate cancer and to die from prostate cancer than are white men, although the reasons for this are not clear.
African-American men have considerably higher incidence rates (234.6 cases per 100,000 African-American men in 2003-2007) than white men (150.4 cases per 100,000 white men in 2003-2007).
African-American men may have the highest rate of prostate cancer incidence in the world. In addition, their prostate cancer mortality rate is more than twice as high as the rate for white Americans. In the period from 2003 to 2007, mortality rates were 22.8 cases per 100,000 white men, and 54.2 cases per 100,000 African-American men.
Five-year relative survival rates are lower for African-American men (96.5 percent during 1999 to 2006) than for white men (99.7 percent during 1999 to 2006).
The causes of higher rates of prostate cancer among African-American males are largely unknown. Some studiesfound that even when income and education are controlled for, African-Americans have much higher rates than whites. Further studies are examining the impact of a wide variety of potential risk factors, including dietary and other lifestyle differences, occupational exposures, and hormonal and genetic differences.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE:
To carry out an overview of prostate cancer in indigenous back Africans in sub-Saharan Africa and blacks of African ancestry in diaspora.
DATA SOURCE:
Review of all published literature on prostate cancer on indigenous black Africans and Africans in diaspora was carried out through medline and index medicus searches.
DATA SELECTION:
Published data of prostate cancer in indigenous black Africans and black men in diaspora from 1935-2007 were included in the review.
DATA EXTRACTION:
Abstracts of articles identified were assessed, read and analysed to determine their possible suitability and relevance to the title under review.
DATA SYNTHESIS:
After establishing relevance from the abstract, the entire paper was read, and the significant points included in the review.
CONCLUSION:
Prostate cancer incidence and magnitude in black Africans was grossly misunderstood and underestimated in the past. Prostate cancer incidence is on the increase and currently is perhaps the most common urological malignancy affecting black Africans. Its incidence and clinical characteristics is similar to that of the Africans in diaspora but different from all other races. There currently exists significant evidence which suggests a common enhancing genetic predisposition in black men to prostate cancer. There is very urgent need for further investigation of this phenomenon through randomised controlled multicentre studies involving indigenous black Africans and black men in diaspora.

good job Mr. Obu (Radiooncologist). Keep it up. All cancer/tumor patients can have a prolonged life provided their diagnosed earlier and they get treatment in form of either radiotherapy, chemotherapy or tumor resection (have their tumor/cancer operated depending upon what kind of tumor/cancer. But people with lung cancer have limited treatment possibilities. All tumor/cancer patients need regular check-ups and recall treatments to improve their quality of life. God give all those cancer/tumor patients worldwide more strength in their battle to fight against their disease.

Chemotherapy destroys both Good & Bad cells in the body.
It does not cure cancer, it's a form of treatment that's outdated although still widely used.
In most instances, chemotherapy can destroy the tumour, but in most cases the tumour do return in time and the patient dies. Why?
Because the underlying causes was not treated soon after diagnosis....factors could be a combination of Diet,Environmental Poisoning or a weakened Immune system.
There are scientific proven natural cures available that works & help the cells to regenerate normally.
Cells becomes cancerous when they fail to die normally as they should do with a normal healthy immune system.
-----------------------------------
We can debate these points further if it's of interest.
