Pancreatic Cancer

What is pancreatic cancer?

Pancreatic cancer is a type of cancer that originates in the tissue of the pancreas.

What does the pancreas do?

The pancreas is a dual-function organ. The pancreas is about 6 inches long and is located deep in your belly between your stomach and backbone and is surrounded by the liver, intestine, and other organs.The pancreas is a digestive gland that makes a mixture of specific types of enzymes (known collectively as ‘pancreatic juice’) to digest proteins, starch and carbohydrates, fats and other nutrients. The pancreatic juice also assists with nutrient absorption and digestion ion the small intestine. Additionally, the pancreas has another major function, which is making insulin.  Insulin is a signal (a hormone) that is released into the blood stream and goes to cells of the body to tell them that nutrients are on the way. This very important organ also produces many other important hormones that are both critical to directing the body’s tasks as well as communicating messages from one part of the body to another.

What are some pancreatic cancer symptoms?

Early cancer of the pancreas often doesn’t cause symptoms. When the cancer grows larger, you may notice one or more of these common symptoms:

• Dark urine, pale stools, and yellow skin and eyes from jaundice
• Pain in the upper part of your belly
• Pain in the middle part of your back that doesn’t go away when you shift your position
• Nausea and vomiting
• Stools that float in the toilet

Advanced pancreatic cancer may cause these general symptoms:

• Weakness or feeling very tired
• Loss of appetite or feelings of fullness
• Weight loss for no known reason

One reason pancreatic cancer is so deadly is because the symptoms are frequently vague and largely ignored.  Often times it is too late once the cancer suffer realizes something is wrong. By that time the pancreatic cancer has often traveled to other parts of the body – making it nearly impossible to stop.

These symptoms may be caused by pancreatic cancer or by other health problems. People with these symptoms should tell their doctor so that problems can be diagnosed and treated as early as possible.

Pancreatic Cancer Statistics (in the U.S. as of 2013):[1]

• An estimated 45,220 diagnosed in 2013
• An estimated 38,460 deaths in 2013

The Kanzius Noninvasive Radiowave Cancer Treatment

and Pancreatic Cancer Research

Currently, research is being conducted to treat pancreatic cancer with the Kanzius Noninvasive Radiowave Cancer Treatment, as well as the following eight other types of cancer: liver cancer, breast cancer, colon cancer, leukemia, lung cancer, melanoma, osteosarcoma, and prostate cancer. This treatment, which utilizes three simple elements - controlled radiowaves, antibodies and metallic nanoparticles - has shown to be incredibly successful in treating pancreatic cancer. In studies conducted by lead Kanzius researcher, Dr. Steven Curley, human pancreatic cancer cells have been destroyed in vivo (in small labratory animals). After the cancer cells were targeted with antibody-coated microscopic metallic particles and exposed to a controlled radiowave, the pancreatic cancer cells (even the large ones) were killed with no injury to the surrounding tissue and with no side effects or illness in the subjects. Radiowaves used in this research are generated by the patented Kanzius RF Machine.

Pancreatic cancer is one of the most deadly and least curable cancers. With the Kanzius Noninvasive Radiowave Cancer Treatment, more lives can be saved from this awful disease. Additional articles validating the treatment of pancreatic cancer with the Noninvasive Radiowave Cancer Treatment from the Kanzius research teams at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center and the University of California, Davis have been published and are available for your reading.
