Mina Bissell: Experiments that point to a new understanding of cancer

[GagaLeslie]

I had an infected root canal right above the site where I got triple negative breast cancer. Also donated my LEFT kidney. Because I was not able to filter the metabolic wastes and had a sluggish lymphatic system. If you don't get rid of metabolic waste and eat dairy and alot of meat, you're asking for it. I personally refused conventional treatment, chemo, radiation, bilateral mastectomy -- among other surgeries. Instead I changed my diet radically (plant based) and did a 3 month cannabis protocol. Very important -- move your lymphatic system by doing cardio... rebounding is very very important.

Being a chemist myself, I found this fascinating! It makes one wonder if shape alone, or a transference of chemical signals is necessary to transform the cells from one state to the other.

Another wonderfully inspiring talk. Many thanks to TED.

A CHALLENGE TO ALL TED TALKS DEVOTEES

Where is the photovoltaic window film now?

The water bottle filter for clean water?

Where will Mina Bissell's work end up?

Let's face it, however uplifting and humanitarian you may feel at the time of watching these, the memory leaves us in the wake of our everyday struggle for survival.

IT IS UP TO EVERY ONE OF US TO FOLLOW THESE AND ENSURE THEY COME TO FRUITION

Let's start now.

[Timeisnow]

What an incredible, tenacious woman, she went for what she wanted, she got it and now she wants us to go get it. Now that is an earth mother if i've ever seen one!

[Cardano_yogi]

What I take from this video is that on those frontiers where the cancer cells are meeting up against the healthy cells, especially if metastasis has occurred, that it is imperative to keep the healthy cells vital to prevent malignancy. Thus feeding the healthy cells the nutritional elements needed, BUT what if they cells membrane or capacity for absorption is failing? This is where I believe frequency therapy is beneficial, particularly a rife machine. It helps the increase the healthy cells membrane' s permeability to release inflammation and toxins and ingest the needed minerals, gases and nutrients.

[Chimonger]

She has an amazing theory; seems a terrific human being to work with!
Loved her presentation, and wonder, WHY this has not been made more of?
Why not investigate how diet might correct the expression of that containment?
Or, how manmade chemicals in environment, could be turning off what controls that?
But mostly, I wonder, here it is 2016, and this is just slowly percolating around? The "good ol' boys" are at it yet again....

[riddler]

I seriously can't wait to start my BioChem schooling! I swear this woman just talked about many theories I have had about the nature of cells, for some time now. Why oh why did I not go into this long ago.

[margaretcole]

thank you for your concern i have tried everything, i am still here, i believe there is a reason for my life. i hope someday to find out what it was.

[tabrezquraishi]

This woman is an asset to the society. I fills my heart to see such people.

[TazManiac]

Thank you TED for once again giving me the chance to set in a classroom and listen to another brilliant prof. I can't wait for the next one. I hope this inspires minds to rid us of this horrible disease.

[Martial-Mat]

What a wonderfully vibrant enthusiastic human being. People like her are the best bet for science.

[dennisarnold]

I;m glad you like it! keep listenng and watching, Stat cool!...

[ExclusiveManual]

WOW. This talk is breath taking. And I know this is probably still under experimental stage but is there a fund raiser setup for this? This would indefinitely speed up the process.

[GoreTuzkPT]

Makes sense, much like the cancerous growth that humanity has become can be reversed by altering the architecture of the socioeconomic system and thus changing the context in which the individuals interact.

[Piitsi]

Wow a lot of unnecessary hate in the comments.

Yeah, yeah, I'm also sure that some one came up with similar ideas before. So she not totally original? Big boohoo.

Haters need to grow up, don't bitch and whine how she's not worthy enough for being on the stage.

What people need to realize is that we need people like her. People who can capture the public imagination and stand out from the crowd hammering the message forward. People like her make sure there's funding for future discoveries.

[karayunify]

I like her speech! Her voice sounds good. To my surprise, I can understand half of content only by listening!

[xapemanx]

can you do this with spider silk glands to produce the super strong string?

[pranaytopgun]

and ecm is not the only thing that talks to chromatin...there are loads of hormones and even vitamines which signal the nucleus alongwith probably atleast thousands of undiscovered signal molecules...

[humanyoda]

Look into metabolic therapies for treating/curing/preventing cancer. Maybe using a diet that prevents fueling cancer cells will let one make time a non-factor.

15:00 fractals, that's what they all are. It's an easy answer when you know what you are looking at.
Nature makes fractals because they are self-similar, and in biology, you can make incredibly complex structures with little information.
