Metformin Might Prevent Colorectal and Lung Cancers

Data from a small clinical trial and from an animal study reported in the September issue of Cancer Prevention Research suggest that metformin might suppress the development of precancerous colorectal lesions in humans and prevent tobacco-induced lung cancers in mice. The drug appears to alter cellular energy metabolism in a way that is particularly bad for cancers and precancerous cells. It is also attractive because it is relatively nontoxic.

Researchers at the University of California, San Diego School of Medicine and Creighton University School of Medicine in Omaha have reported that markedly higher intake of vitamin D is needed to reach blood levels that can prevent or markedly cut the incidence of breast cancer and several other major diseases than had been originally thought. The findings are published February 21 in the journal Anticancer Research.

In less than two years’ time, the bubonic plague wiped out half the population of Europe. Fleas bit rats and then bit man, but no one knew it. An estimated 25 million people died. Some individual cities had a mortality as high as 90%. Bodies were piled into carts and dragged away to be burned in common graves. It was a most grotesque way to die: bleeding and screaming and having one’s organs liquefy. From infection to death took perhaps one week. Prior to that outbreak, bubonic plague had been absent for nearly 1000 years. Scholars of the day attributed the cause of the plague to evil spirits, divine retribution, etc. All this time, even up to the present, other scientists have been asking the question: why did some die and some survive? What made the difference? Today we know the answer.
