Cashews are said to be leading to weight gain if we eat in higher quantities. Actually cashews are rich sources of copper, iron, magnesium, selenium, and phosphorus and they have many health benefits because if their nutritional values.  Cashews have high amount of healthy fatty acids and antioxidants. Including cashews in regular diet has been linked to improving cardiovascular health, lowering cholesterol levels, and even weight loss and hence it can be declared as a myth that eating cashew leads to weight gain.
Unprocessed cashews are poisonous and one cannot eat the raw cashews, the processed nuts make for a delicious, healthy snack that give above mentioned benefits to your health. Cashews are not toxic but the shell around them contains of toxic oils said to be urushiol which causes dermatitis. This agent is acidic in nature and also causes skin rashes, itching, and blisters when it comes in contact with the skin.

Cashews reported to contain dietary fiber, vitamin K, a range of healthy minerals like copper, magnesium, and manganese, and omega-3 fatty acids. Cashews are more beneficial than peanuts as they contain higher quantities of Omega-3 fatty acids than omega-6 fatty acids.

How to treat Rare Cancer?


Researchers from New York's Rockefeller University announced the discovery of a rare tumor type which is not able to synthesize cholesterol, and a molecule without cholesterol can't survive. Those cells will become dependent on cholesterol from any other source, and this dependency strategy of the cancer cell helps us to design therapies to block cholesterol uptake from their environment.

Cancer cells are impressive in their relentless growth, sidestepping in the aging process as they become immortal, and avoid the immune system's persistent attacks. But in the process of acquiring such superior powers, the cells must occasionally suppress other, more unusual activities--including the ability to produce certain nutrients. In rare cancers they lose the ability to make vital nutrients for their survival. As a first line of treatment against these cancer cells, doctors give patients a drug (inactive enzyme) known as asparaginase, which breaks down the amino acid bond from the cancer cell, removing it from the blood. Without access to its environment for the nutrient, the cancer cells die.

Cancer Epidemiology is the most important topic than any other epidemiological studies as it directly leads the death of the victim. Cancers are not curable unless we observe the symptoms in the early stages and we are aware of the epidemiology through clinical methods. Some rare cancers are said to be curable through the above mentioned strategical studies, we support thanking all the professional cancer epidemiologists and researchers who are giving their life to build a better healthy environment all over the globe.
