Ovarian Cancer Tests 'Woefully Ineffective' According To Researchers
ScienceDaily (Aug. 3, 2009) — Current diagnostic tests for ovarian cancer are woefully ineffective for early detection of the disease, say researchers at Stanford University School of Medicine. A new study finds that in order to make a significant dent in the mortality rate for the deadly cancer, the tests would have to be able to detect tumors of less than 1 cm in diameter, or about 200-times smaller in mass than those currently used to assess potential new tests.

Most Tests Ineffective In Detecting Ovarian Cancer In Time, Howard Hughes Medical Institute And Stanford University School of Medicine Study
BioSpace 7/28/2009 - Howard Hughes Medical Institute -- A new study by Howard Hughes Medical Institute researchers shows that most early stage ovarian tumors exist for years at a size that is a thousand times smaller than existing tests can detect reliably. Get the rest of the story here.

Cancer Tests Flawed from Faulty Kits
Article from: The Australian May 12, 2009 - The federal Government has been forced to defend its bowel cancer screening program after almost half a million people received a faulty bowel cancer testing kit and will need to take the test again. It emerged yesterday that 475,000 Japanese-made testing kits provided to Australians since December last year were not accurately diagnosing the disease. The kits were provided to all 50-, 55- and 65-year olds as part of the Department of Health and Ageing's National Bowel Cancer Screening program.
And there is more, but enough cited here to prove my point: is the coming health care reform bill really going to fix this problem? If so, at what cost?
You've heard the expression "There's no such thing as a free lunch" and the reason for that is that someone always has to pay the bill. It might be paid under-the-table or in the 'back room' but someone always has to pay the bill!
I have long been a proponent of natural cures and 'medications' because I believe that that is The Makers intention. And if you've been to my Agent Orange Primer, you are no doubt familiar with my personal story with relation to Agent Orange and an anti-oxidant called OPC. I also believe such a connection exist between Aloe Vera and the cure for many cancers, especially if it's detected early enough. You can purchase both a bio-available form of OPC and a high quality form of Aloe Vera at my OnLine Market Place. Check it out - there's no charge to window-shop.
