Cancer that starts in the pancreas is called pancreatic cancer.
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!Things to know about pancreatic cancer: The pancreas is a hormone-producing organ in the abdomen that sits in front of the spine above the level of the belly button. It performs two main functions:
- It makes insulin, a hormone that regulates blood sugar levels (an endocrine function); and
- It makes and secretes into the intestine digestive enzymes which help break down dietary proteins, fats, and carbohydrates (an exocrine function).
The enzymes help digestion by chopping proteins, fats, and carbohydrates into smaller parts so that they can be more easily absorbed by the body and used as building blocks for tissues and for energy. Enzymes leave the pancreas via a system of tubes called “ducts” that connect the pancreas to the intestines where the enzymes mix with ingested food.
The pancreas sits deep in the abdomen and is in close proximity to many important structures such as the small intestine (the duodenum) and the bile ducts, as well as important blood vessels and nerves.
Most pancreatic cancers are adenocarcinomas. Few patients diagnosed with pancreatic cancer have identifiable risk factors. Pancreatic cancer is highly lethal because it grows and spreads rapidly and often is diagnosed in its late stages.
When pancreatic cancer begins, it usually starts in the cells that line the ducts of the pancreas and is termed pancreatic adenocarcinoma or pancreatic exocrine cancer.
Pancreatic cancer may be difficult to diagnose until late in its course; most pancreatic cancers are found after cancer has grown or progressed beyond the pancreas or has metastasized to other places.
Five types of pancreatic cancer
Cancer that develops within the pancreas falls into two major categories:
- Cancers of the endocrine pancreas (the part that makes insulin and other hormones) are called “islet cells” or “pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors or PNETs”.
- Cancers of the exocrine pancreas (the part that makes enzymes).
Islet cell cancers are rare and typically grow slowly compared to exocrine pancreatic cancers. Islet cell tumors often release hormones into the bloodstream and are further characterized by the hormones they produce (insulin, glucagon, gastrin, and other hormones).
Cancers of the exocrine pancreas (exocrine cancers) develop from the cells that line the system of ducts that deliver enzymes to the small intestine and are commonly referred to as pancreatic adenocarcinomas.
- Squamous cell pancreatic cancer is rare.
- Adenocarcinoma of the pancreas comprises almost all pancreatic ductal cancers and is the main subject of this review.
Cells that line the ducts in the exocrine pancreas divide more rapidly than the tissues that surround them. The reason is abnormal body PH levels, due to high PH these cells make a mistake when they copy their DNA as they are dividing to replace other dying cells. In this manner, an abnormal cell can be made. When an abnormal ductal cell begins to divide in an unregulated way like fungi, growth can form abnormal-looking and functioning cells very similar to fungi.
The abnormal changes are called “dysplasia.” Often, dysplastic cells can undergo additional DNA changes over time and become even more abnormal. When these dysplastic cells (fungi) invade through the walls of the duct from which they arise into the surrounding tissue, the dysplasia becomes cancer.
Types
Subsequent expression analysis of these adenocarcinomas, they are defined into four subtypes:
- Squamous: These tumors have enriched TP53 and KDMA mutations.
- Pancreatic progenitor: These tumors express genes involved in pancreatic development such as FOXA2/3, PDX1, and MNX1.
- Aberrantly differentiated endocrine exocrine (ADEX): These tumors display the genes (KRAS) and exocrine (NR5A2 and RBPJL) plus endocrine (NEUROD1 and NKX2-2) differentiation.
- Immunogenic: These tumors contain pathways that are involved in acquired immune suppression.
These new findings may allow future cancer patients to be treated more specifically depending on their subtype and, hopefully, more effectively. For example, the immunogenic subtype could possibly respond to therapy where the immune system is re-engineered to attack these types of cancer cells.
Pancreatic cancer should not be confused with the term pancreatitis. Pancreatitis is simply defined as inflammation of the pancreas and is mainly caused by alcohol abuse and /or gallstone formation. Nevertheless, chronic pancreatitis is associated with pancreatic cancer.
Causes and risk factors
Most people who develop pancreatic cancer do so without any predisposing risk factors.
The biggest risk factor is increasing age; being over the age of 60 puts an individual at greater risk. Rarely, there can be familial or hereditary genetic syndromes arising from genetic mutations that run-in families and put individuals at higher risk, such as BRCA-2 and, to a lesser extent, BRCA-1 gene mutations.
Familial syndromes are unusual, but it is important to let a doctor know if anyone else in the family has been diagnosed with cancer, especially pancreatic cancer.
Other behaviors or conditions that may put people at risk include tobacco, obesity, a sedentary lifestyle, a history of diabetes, chronic pancreatic inflammation (pancreatitis), and access use of refined oils, processed food, artificial flavors and colors, carbonated drinks and many allopathic drugs (side effects), coffee, chocolates etc.
Certain chronic infections such as hepatitis and H. pylori (a bacterial infection of the stomach lining), some types of pancreatic cysts.
Pancreatic Cancer Symptoms
Pancreatic cancer typically does not cause symptoms until it has grown, so it is most frequently diagnosed in advanced stages rather than early in the course of the disease. In some cases, jaundice (a yellowish discoloration of the skin and whites of the eyes) without pain can be an early sign of pancreatic cancer.
Other symptoms that can occur with more advanced disease are:
- Nausea.
- Vomiting.
- Weight loss.
- Itching skin.
- Decreased appetite.
Pale stools, back pain, abdominal pain, dark urine, abdominal bloating, diarrhea, and enlarged lymph nodes in the neck can be present as well.
Early cancer symptoms and/or first signs can be absent or quite subtle.
More easily identifiable symptoms develop once the tumor grows large enough to press on other nearby structures includes:
- Nerves (which causes generalized pain and/or back pain),
- The intestines (which affects appetite and causes nausea along with weight loss), and/or
- The bile ducts (which causes jaundice or a yellowing of the skin and can cause loss of appetite and itching. Hereditary hemochromatosis).
Once the tumor sheds cancer cells (the fungi) into the blood and lymph systems and metastasizes, additional symptoms usually arise, depending on the location of the metastasis. Symptoms in women rarely differ from those in men.
Frequent sites of metastasis for pancreatic cancer include the liver, the lymph nodes, and the lining of the abdomen (called the peritoneum; ascites fluid may accumulate in metastatic pancreatic cancer).
In general, the signs and symptoms of pancreatic cancer can be produced by exocrine or endocrine cancer cells. Many of the signs and symptoms of exocrine pancreatic cancer result from blockage of the duct that travels through the pancreas from the liver carrying bile to the intestine, for example:
- Jaundice,
- Dark urine,
- Itchy skin,
- Light-colored or white stools,
- Pain in the abdomen or the back,
- Poor appetite and weight loss,
- Digestive problems (pale and/or greasy stools, nausea, and vomiting),
- Blood clots, and
- Enlarged gallbladder.
The signs and symptoms of endocrine pancreatic cancers are often related to the excess hormones that they produce and consequently to a variety of different symptoms.
Such symptoms are related to the hormones and are as follows:
- Insulinomas: Insulin-producing tumors that lower blood glucose (sugar) levels can cause low blood sugars that result in weakness, confusion, coma, and even death.
- Glucagonomas: Glucagon-producing tumors can increase glucose levels and cause symptoms of diabetes (thirst, increased urination, diarrhea and skin changes, especially a characteristic rash termed necrolytic migratory erythema).
- Gastrinomas: Gastrin-producing tumors trigger the stomach to produce too much acid, which leads to ulcers, black tarry stools, and anemia.
- Somatostatinomas: Somatostatin-producing tumors result in other hormones being overregulated and producing symptoms of diabetes, diarrhea, belly pain, jaundice etc.
- VIPomas: These tumors produce a substance called a vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) that may cause severe watery diarrhea and digestive problems along with high blood glucose levels.
- PPomas: These tumors produce pancreatic polypeptide (PP) that affects both endocrine and exocrine functions, resulting in abdominal pain, enlarged livers, and watery diarrhea.
- Carcinoid tumors: These tumors make serotonin or its precursor, 5-HTP, and may cause carcinoid syndrome with symptoms of flushing of the skin, diarrhea, wheezing, and a rapid heart rate that occurs episodically; eventually, a heart murmur, shortness of breath, and weakness develop due to damage to the heart valves.
Nonfunctioning neuroendocrine tumors don’t make excess hormones but can grow large and spread out of the pancreas. Symptoms then can be like any of the endocrine pancreatic cancers described above.
Diagnosis
Most patients do not need to be screened for pancreatic cancer, and the tests available for screening frequently are complex, risky, expensive, or insensitive in the early phases of cancer. Those who may qualify usually have a set of factors that increase the risk for pancreatic cancer, such as pancreatic cysts, first-degree relatives with pancreatic cancer, or a history of genetic syndromes associated with pancreatic cancer. Most screening tests consist of
- CT scans,
- Ultrasounds,
- Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP),
- Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), or
- Endoscopic ultrasounds.
Unfortunately, early detection of pancreatic cancer is difficult because few or no symptoms are present. Some warning signs include pain, gastrointestinal symptoms, weight loss, fatigue, and increased abdominal fluid. These complaints trigger an evaluation often including:
- a physical examination (usually normal),
- blood tests,
- X-rays, and
- an ultrasound.
If pancreatic cancer is present, the likelihood of an ultrasound revealing an abnormality in the pancreas is about 75%. If a problem is identified or suspected, frequently a computed tomography (CT) scan or an MRI is performed as the next step in the evaluation. If a pancreatic mass is seen, that raises the suspicion of pancreatic cancer and a doctor then performs a biopsy to yield a diagnosis.
Biopsy test
Different strategies can be used to perform a biopsy of the suspected cancer. Often, a needle biopsy of the liver through the belly wall (percutaneous liver biopsy) will be used if it appears that there has been a spread of cancer to the liver. If the tumor remains localized to the pancreas, a biopsy of the pancreas directly usually is performed with the aid of a CT.
A direct biopsy also can be made via an endoscope put down the throat and into the intestines. A camera on the tip of the endoscope allows the endoscopist to advance the endoscope within the intestine. An ultrasound device at the tip of the endoscope locates the area of the pancreas to be biopsied, and a biopsy needle is passed through a working channel in the endoscope to obtain tissue from the suspected cancer.
Ultimately, a tissue diagnosis is the only way to make the diagnosis with certainty, and the team of doctors works to obtain a tissue diagnosis in the easiest way possible.
Radiologic tests
In addition to radiologic tests, suspicion of pancreatic cancer can arise from the elevation of a “tumor marker,” a blood test that can be abnormally high in people with pancreatic cancer.
- The tumor marker most commonly associated with pancreatic cancer is called CA19-9.
- It often is released into the bloodstream by pancreatic cancer cells and may be elevated in patients newly found to have pancreatic cancer.
- Unfortunately, although the CA19-9 test is cancer-related, it is not specific for pancreatic cancer.
- Other cancers as well as some benign conditions can cause CA 19-9 to be elevated.
- Sometimes (about 20% of the time) the CA19-9 will be at normal levels in the blood despite a confirmed diagnosis of pancreatic cancer, so the tumor marker is not perfect. It can be helpful, however, to follow during the course of illness since its rise and fall may correlate with cancer’s growth and help guide appropriate therapy.
Stage of pancreatic cancer
Once pancreatic cancer is diagnosed, it is “staged.” Pancreatic cancer is broken into four stages with stage 1 being the earliest stage (stage 0 is not counted) and stage IV being the most advanced (metastatic disease). The following are the stages of pancreatic cancer according to the National Cancer Institute:
Stage 0: Cancer is found only in the lining of the pancreatic ducts. Stage 0 is also called carcinoma in situ.
Stage I: Cancer has formed and is in the pancreas only.
- Stage IA: The tumor is 2 centimeters or smaller.
- Stage IB: The tumor is larger than 2 centimeters.
Stage II: Cancer may have spread or advanced to nearby tissue and organs and lymph nodes near the pancreas.
- Stage IIA: Cancer has spread to nearby tissue and organs but has not spread to nearby lymph nodes.
- Stage IIB: Cancer has spread to nearby lymph nodes and may have spread to other nearby tissue and organs.
Stage III: Cancer has spread or progressed to the major blood vessels near the pancreas and may have spread to nearby lymph nodes.
Stage IV: Cancer may be of any size and has spread to distant organs, such as the liver, lung, and peritoneal cavity. It also may have spread to organs and tissues near the pancreas or to lymph nodes. This stage has also been termed end-stage pancreatic cancer.
Unlike many cancers, however, patients with pancreatic cancer are typically grouped into three categories, those with local disease, those with locally advanced, unrespectable disease, and those with metastatic disease. Initial therapy often differs for patients in these three groups.
Patients with stage I and stage II cancers are thought to have local or “resectable” cancer (cancer that can be completely removed with an operation). Patients with stage III cancers have “locally advanced, unresectable” disease. In this situation, the opportunity for a cure has been lost but local treatments such as radiation therapy remain options. In patients with stage IV pancreatic cancer, chemotherapy is most commonly recommended as a means of controlling the symptoms related to cancer and extending life. Below, we will review common treatments for the three groups of pancreatic cancers (resectable, locally advanced unresectable, and metastatic pancreatic cancer).
Allopathic treatment options
For resectable pancreatic cancer allopathic treatment
If pancreatic cancer is found at an early stage (stage I and stage II) and is contained locally within or around the pancreas, surgery may be recommended (resectable pancreatic cancer). Surgery is the only allopathic potentially curative treatment for pancreatic cancer. The surgical procedure most commonly performed to remove pancreatic cancer is a Whipple procedure (pancreatoduodenectomy or pancreaticoduodenectomy).
It often comprises the removal of a portion of the stomach, the duodenum (the first part of the small intestine), pancreas, a portion of the main bile duct, lymph nodes, and gallbladder. It is important to be evaluated at a hospital with lots of experience performing pancreatic cancer surgery because the operation is a big one, and evidence shows that experienced surgeons better select people who can get through the surgery safely and also the better judge who will most likely benefit from the operation. In experienced hands, the mortality from the surgery itself is less than 12%.
After the Whipple surgery, patients typically spend about one week in the hospital recovering from the operation. Complications from the surgery can include
- Blood loss (anemia),
- Leakage from the reconnected intestines or ducts, or
- Slow return of bowel function.
- Recovery to presurgical health often can take several months to a year or two.
After patients recover from a Whipple procedure for pancreatic cancer, treatment to reduce the risk of cancer returning is a standard recommendation. This treatment, referred to as “adjuvant therapy (chemotherapy),” has been proven to lower the risk (10-16%) of recurrent cancer. Typically, physicians recommend six months to a year of adjuvant chemotherapy, sometimes with radiation incorporated into the treatment plan.
Some patients with pancreatic cancer experience blockage of bile and/or pancreas ducts and thus may need a surgeon to place a stent to allow drainage through the stent.
Unfortunately, only about 20 people out of 100 diagnosed with pancreatic cancer are found to have a tumor that is amenable to surgical resection or is borderline resectable. The rest have pancreatic tumors that are too locally advanced to completely remove or have metastatic spread at the time of diagnosis. Even among patients whose cancers are amenable to surgery, statistical data suggest that only 20% live 5 years.
Most pancreatic cancer patients do not qualify for a pancreas transplant because of their advanced disease; most pancreas transplants are done in patients with diabetes that results from the removal of the endocrine portion of the pancreas and not for pancreatic cancer. Consequently, remission rates are fair to poor.
Allopathic treatment for locally advanced unresectable pancreatic cancer (stage III)
If pancreatic cancer is found when it has grown into important local structures but has not yet spread to distant sites, this is described as locally advanced, unresectable (inoperable) pancreatic cancer (stage III). The standard of care is a combination of low-dose chemotherapy given simultaneously with radiation treatments to the pancreas and surrounding tissues.
- Radiation treatments are designed to lower the risk of local growth of cancer, thereby minimizing the symptoms that local progression causes (back or belly pain, nausea, loss of appetite, intestinal blockage, and jaundice).
- Radiation treatments are typically given Monday through Friday for about five weeks.
- Chemotherapy given concurrently (at the same time; as FOLFOX combination therapy) may improve the effectiveness of the radiation and may lower the risk of cancer spreading outside the area where the radiation is delivered.
- When the radiation is completed and the patient has recovered, more chemotherapy is often recommended. Some forms of radiation delivery (proton therapy, stereotactic radiosurgery, gamma knife radiation, Nanoknife, CyberKnife radiation) have been utilized in locally advanced pancreatic cancer with varying degrees of success, but these treatments can be more toxic and are, for now, largely experimental.
Allopathic treatment options for metastatic pancreatic cancer
Once pancreatic cancer has spread beyond the vicinity of the pancreas and involves other organs, it has become a problem throughout the system.
- As a result, systemic treatment is most appropriate and chemotherapy (for example, nab-paclitaxel in combination with gemcitabine is recommended.
- Chemotherapy travels through the bloodstream and goes anywhere the blood flows and, as such, treats most of the body. It can attack cancer that has spread through the body wherever it is found and into normal organs too.
- In metastatic pancreatic cancer, chemotherapy is recommended for individuals healthy enough to receive it. It has been proven to both extend the lives of patients with pancreatic cancer and improve their quality of life. These benefits are documented, but unfortunately, the overall benefit from chemotherapy in pancreatic cancer treatment is modest and chemotherapy prolongs life for the average patient by only a few months.
- Chemotherapy options for patients with pancreatic cancer vary from treatment with a single chemotherapy agent like Tarceva or Onivyde to treatment with as many as two or three chemotherapy agents or immunotherapy agents are given together (for example, capecitabine plus ruxolitinib).
- The aggressiveness of the treatment is determined by the oncologist and by the overall health and strength of the individual patient.
Side effects of pancreatic cancer allopathic treatment
Side effects of allopathic treatment for pancreatic cancer vary depending on the type of treatment. For example, radiation treatment side effects tend to accumulate throughout the course of radiation therapy and include aggravation of cancer, metastases, diseases of bone merrow, liver, kidneys etc. ; fatigue, eating disorders like nausea, diarrhea, hepatic malfunctioning, iliac cancer etc. ; loss or weakness of sense of smell and taste, hair loss (due to malnutrition – due to liver and overall GIT abnormalities) and most important it lowers immune system (immunosuppression).
Survival rate of Pancreatic cancer with allopathic treatment
Pancreatic cancer is a difficult disease for allopath. Even for surgically resectable (and therefore potentially curable) pancreatic tumors, the risk of cancer recurrence and subsequent death remains high. Consequently, the prognosis of pancreatic cancer is very poor.
- Only about 15-20% of patients undergoing a Whipple procedure for potentially curable pancreatic cancer live three to five years, with the rest surviving on average less than two years.
- For patients with incurable (locally advanced unresectable or metastatic) pancreatic cancer, survival is even shorter; typically, it is measured in months. With metastatic disease (stage IV), the average survival is almost six months (plus – minus few days).
- Allopathic doctors around the world continue to study pancreatic cancer and strive to improve treatments, but progress has been difficult to achieve.
Homeopathic treatment for Pancreatic cancer
Here is Homeopathic treatment for almost all types of Cancers
The aim of homeopathy is not only to treat any type of cancer and its symptoms but to address its underlying cause and individual susceptibility.
As far as therapeutic medication is concerned, several well-proved remedies are available for treatment of different types of cancers that can be selected on the basis of cause, condition, sensation, extension, location and modalities of the complaints.
That’s why for individualized remedy selection and treatment, the patient should consult a qualified homeopathic doctor in person.
Exposure to any type of radiation is not an option, said Dr Qaisar Ahmed (MD, DHMS). I categorically reject radiation for living things, especially humans.
In the Cancer Treatment the selection of remedy is based upon the theory of individualization and symptoms similarity by using holistic approach.
This is the only way through which a state of complete health can be regained by removing all the signs and symptoms from which the patient is suffering. The aim of homeopathy is not only to treat cancer but to address its underlying cause and individual susceptibility.

That’s the astonishing claim of controversial folk healer Jim Kelmun treat cancers with a little baking soda and maple syrup!
{Mix one part baking soda with three parts maple syrup in a small saucepan.
Stir briskly.
Heat for five minutes.
Take one teaspoon daily, as needed}.
Sodium bicarbonate is safe, extremely inexpensive and unstoppably effective when it comes to cancer tissues. It’s an irresistible chemical, cyanide to cancer cells for it hits the cancer cells with a shock wave of alkalinity, which allows much more oxygen into the cancer cells than they can tolerate.
Cancer cells cannot survive in the presence of high levels of oxygen. Sodium bicarbonate is, for all intent and purposes, an instant killer of tumors. The extracellular (interstitial) pH (pHe) of solid tumors is significantly more acidic compared to normal tissues.
PH controls the speed of our body’s biochemical reactions. It does this by controlling the speed of enzyme activity as well as the speed that electricity moves through our body. The higher (more alkaline) the pH of a substance or solution, the more electrical resistance that substance or solution holds. Therefore, electricity travels slower with higher pH.
If we say something has an acid pH, we are saying it is hot and fast. Alkaline pH on the other hand, biochemically speaking, is slow and cool.
When oxygen enters an acid solution it can combine with H+ ions to form water. Oxygen helps to neutralize the acid, while at the same time the acid prevents oxygen from reaching the tissues that need it. Acidic tissues are devoid of free oxygen. An alkaline solution is just the reverse. Two hydroxyl ions (OH-) can combine to produce one water molecule and one oxygen atom. In other words, an alkaline solution can provide oxygen to the tissues.
At a pH slightly above 7.4 cancer cells become dormant and at pH 8.5 cancer cells will die while healthy cells will live.
Sodium carbonate has been found effective in treating poisoning or overdose from many chemicals and allopathic/pharmaceutical drugs by negating the cardiotoxic and neurotoxic effects. Sodium bicarbonate is useful in treating neurological disorders in children.
Sodium and potassium bicarbonate help to neutralize excess acids of any kind.
Part of any successful cancer treatment includes chelation and detoxification of heavy metals and a host of toxic chemicals (like mercury, uranium contamination is increasing, lead we are discovering is even more toxic than anyone ever believed and is even in the bread that we eat, arsenic is in broiler chicken, fluoride, chlorine is breathed in most showers etc.).
The IMVA recommends alkaline foods and sodium bicarbonate so that the pH of the blood remains high, which in turn means that the blood is capable of carrying more oxygen. This in turn keeps every cell in the body at peak efficiency and helps the cell eliminate waste products. Detoxification and chelation will proceed more easily and safely under slightly alkaline conditions.
Increased urinary pH reduces oxidative injury in the kidney so it behooves us to work clinically with bicarbonate.
Vitamin D Deficiency Linked to Cancer
The main reason is that UVB rays from the sun produce vitamin D, and evidence links vitamin D deficiency with an increased risk of cancer.
In a 2008 case-control study published in the journal Carcinogenesis, researchers found that post-menopausal women with low vitamin D in the blood had an increased risk of breast cancer.
The study observed cancer patients between the ages of 50 and 74. In total, 1,394 cases and 1,365 controls were used in the study. Another case-control study from 2014 suggested that less than an hour of sunlight daily could reduce any type of cancer risk.
Sunlight Kills cancer
As we know there is an anti-cancer link between vitamin D and cancers, but how?
The sunlight-induced vitamin D is thought to reduce the reproduction and spread of cancer cells, and increase the occurrence of mutated cell self-eradication.
Vitamin D has to be converted into 1, 25-dihydroxycholecalciferol in the liver and kidney in the presence of PTH. The 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol is an active product.
There are various forms of vitamin D. But, the most important one is vitamin D3 (also known as cholecalciferol).
Vitamin D3 is synthesized in the skin from 7-dehydrocholesterol, by the action of ultraviolet rays from the sunlight.
Activation of vitamin D3 occurs in two steps:
First step: –
Cholecalciferol (vitamin D3) is converted into 25- hydroxycholecalciferol in the liver. This process is limited. and is inhibited by 25-hydroxycholecalciferol itself by feedback mechanism.
This inhibition is essential for two reasons:
A) Regulation of the amount of active vitamin D.
B) Storage of vitamin D for months together. If vitamin D3 is converted into 25-hydroxycholecalciferol, it remains in the body only for 2 to 5 days. But vitamin D3 is stored in liver for several months.
Second step: –
25-hydroxycholecalciferol is converted into 1,25- dihydroxycholecalciferol (calcitriol) in kidney. It is the active form of vitamin D3. This step needs the presence of PTH.
Role of Calcium Ion in Regulating 1, 25-Dihydroxycholecalciferol: –
When blood calcium level increases, it inhibits the formation of 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol.
The mechanism involved in the inhibition of the formation of 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol is as follows:
1. Increase in calcium ion concentration directly suppresses the conversion of 25-hydroxycholecalciferol into 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol. This effect is very mild
2. Increase in calcium ion concentration decreases the PTH secretion, which in turn suppresses the conversion of 25-hydroxycholecalciferol into 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol. This regulates the calcium ion concentration of plasma itself indirectly, i.e. When the PTH synthesis is inhibited, the conversion of 25-hydroxycholecalciferol into 1,25-hydroxycholecalciferol is also inhibited. Lack of 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol decreases the absorption of calcium ions from the intestine, from the bones and from the renal tubules as well. This makes the calcium level in the plasma fall back to normal.
Actions of 1, 25-Dihydroxycholecalciferol: –
1. It increases the absorption of calcium from the intestine, by increasing the formation of calcium binding proteins in the intestinal epithelial cells. These proteins act as carrier proteins for facilitated diffusion, by which the calcium ions are transported. The proteins remain in the cells for several weeks after 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol has been removed from the body, thus causing a prolonged effect on calcium absorption
2. It increases the synthesis of calcium-induced ATPase in the intestinal epithelium
3. It increases the synthesis of alkaline phosphatase in the intestinal epithelium
4. It increases the absorption of phosphate from the intestine along with calcium.
A new study published in The Journal of Steroid Biochemistry and Molecular Biology last year found that vitamin D compounds suppress cancer stem cell population, which may inhibit cancer growth.
Basically, radiation and chemotherapy do not shrink the tumor or kill the colony; the cancer stem cells remains but now more violent, which can cause an aggressive cancer recurrence in the near future. The chemotherapy and radiation pretty much just make the cancer stem cells angry.
The breast tissue abnormality ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) was once considered cancerous, but is now believed to be benign. DCIS may also progress to invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC), which is a more serious breast cancer risk, though it may not develop into breast cancer.
Conventional therapy “radiotherapy, chemotherapy, lumpectomies, and mastectomies for DCIS and IDC cases” do not work but aggravate the disease.
However, the aforementioned study found that the vitamin D3 compound BXL0124 normalized the cell culture system (in Homeopathy there are lot of cases cured by Calcarea Carbonica), which included non-stem cell and breast cancer stem cells and Colon or Colorectal, pancreatic cancer cells.
Vitamin D compounds also repressed cancer stem cell properties, the pluripotency markers OCT4 and KLF-4, and the cell markers CD44, CD49f, pNFkB, and c-Notch1. Simply put, vitamin D3 gives cancer stem cells a run for their money.

Other Ways to Reduce Cancer Risk
Vitamin D3 may be a safe and effective alternative or complementary treatment to conventional cancer therapy. It is also considered a cost-effective preventative therapy against the recurrence of cancer.
Decreased dietary intake and/or absorption, certain malabsorption syndromes such as celiac disease, short bowel syndrome, gastric bypass, inflammatory bowel disease, chronic pancreatic insufficiency and cancer, and cystic fibrosis may lead to vitamin D deficiency. Lower vitamin D intake orally is more prevalent in the elderly population.
About 50% to 90% of vitamin D is absorbed through the skin via sunlight while the rest comes from the diet.
Twenty minutes of sunshine daily with over 40% of skin exposed is required to prevent vitamin D deficiency. Cutaneous synthesis of vitamin D declines with aging. Dark-skinned people have less cutaneous vitamin D synthesis. Decreased exposure to the sun as seen in individuals who are institutionalized, or have prolonged hospitalizations can also lead to vitamin D deficiency. Effective sun exposure is decreased in individuals who use sunscreens consistently.
Individuals with chronic liver disease such as cirrhosis, hyperparathyroidism, renal failure and 1-alpha hydroxylase deficiency.
