In another part of the stomach cancer episode Dr. Oz explains where your stomach actually is, it is behind the liver and above the colon. As you eat the food moves along the esophagus to the stomach. As the food enters your stomach mucous cells secrete what is required. With H. Pylori bacteria invade into the cells and damage those cells. Without those cells there to protect them in order to make the mucous the acid destroys the tissue and irritates it, cancer cells begin to grow and invade through all the layers of the stomach which then wreaks havoc with your body creating problems that are irreversible, then from the the stomach cancer can spread to nearby organs, to the liver, the pancreas and the esophagus.

Dr. Oz Supplements To Help Prevent Cancer
Zinc For Breast Cancer: The first vitamin to help prevent cancer is Zinc; Zinc is used to help fight breast cancer. Take 8 MG of Zinc per day
The primary gene protecting women from breast cancer, p53, is thought to be the most frequently mutated or altered gene in the development of cancer. This gene requires zinc, and if it is missing, the gene becomes mutated, resulting in it becoming inactivated or suppressed. Dysfunction of p53 is well documented in the development of breast cancer, indicating that a zinc deficiency is a risk factor for breast cancer independent of the levels of boron, copper and calcium.
Calcium For colon and rectal cancers: Dr. Oz said that studies show that people who have a calcium supplement have a 24% reduction in colon and rectal risks. Take 2 calcium pills a day 600 MG mixed with 400 MG of Magnesium.
Calcium seems to protect high-risk people from developing the polyps that can lead to colorectal cancer -- and the benefits appear to last long after calcium supplementation ends.
Patients with a history of nonmalignant polyps took either 1,200 milligrams of calcium in supplement form or a placebo daily for four years in a study previously reported by researchers from Dartmouth Medical School. Calcium use was associated with a 17% lower relative risk for polyp recurrence.
This risk reduction not only persisted in the years after treatment ended, but it seemed to strengthen, the Dartmouth researchers report in a newly published follow-up that included 822 of the 930 original study subjects.
During the first five years after the end of treatment, 31.5% of patients in the calcium group developed new polyps, compared with 43.2% of the study participants who did not take calcium. The protection did not appear to extend beyond five years, however.
The findings are published in the Jan. 17 issue of the Journal of the National Cancer Institute.
Omega 3 For Skin Cancer: Dr. Oz says to take 600 MG of Omega 3 fats a day to beat back cancer cells
A new review of the medical literature indicates that omega-3 fatty acids can protect the skin from the inflammatory response caused after sun exposure and that these fish-derived nutrients can reduce the risk of non-melanoma skin cancer.
Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston Texas analyzed human and animal studies conducted over the past 15 years on the effect of fish oil or fish consumption on sun damage and sun exposure. Their findings indicated omega-3 fatty acids have an important role to play in reducing the damaging effects of sunburn.
