Britain's cancer survival rate is the lowest in Europe

UK cancer survival rate lowest in Europe - Telegraph

Extract:

"Cancer survival rates in Britain are among the lowest in Europe, according to the most comprehensive analysis of the issue yet produced.

England is on a par with Poland despite the NHS spending three times more on health care.


Survival rates are based on the number of patients who are alive five years after diagnosis and researchers found that, for women, England was the fifth worst in a league of 22 countries. Scotland came bottom.

Cancer experts blamed late diagnosis and long waiting lists.

In total, 52.7pc of women survived for five years after being diagnosed between 2000 and 2002. Only Ireland, Northern Ireland, Scotland, the Czech Republic and Poland did worse. Just 44.8pc of men survived, putting England in the bottom seven countries.

The team, writing in The Lancet Oncology, found that Britain's survival rates for the most common cancers - colorectal, lung, breast and prostate - were substantially behind those in Western Europe."

A huge problem in Britain, which damages many thousands of people, including, no doubt, cancer sufferers, is the relentlessly incorrect and harmful advice about dieting which the medical profession routinely gives - i.e. to cut down on calories/fat, etc in order to lose weight. - This leads to inadequate nutrition and inadequate nutrition leads to greater incidence of obesity, poorer health, impaired healing and lower resistance to infection - and to more cases of cancer and the other degenerative diseases, including diabetes, high blood pressure, stroke, heart disease, heart attck, arthritis, etc.

Obesity is not caused by overeating and that is why undereating/dieting/going hungry/eating fewer calories than your body requires does not reduce overweight, - Cutting calories makes you tired, cold, depressed and suffering from malnutrition.

Obesity is caused by salt sensitivity and fluid retention. - Lose weight and improve your health by eating less salt! Go on! - Try it! - You will feel so much better! - How to Lose weight!
