We must start by understanding how the human works first before creating treatments and solutions. In simple language coz this is a serious thread .....  When you try to use an instrument or equipment and find it malfunctioning, you try to come with a diagnosis. But that diagnosis is based on the validity of a hypothesis you had about the equipment. That hypothesis depends on the functional model of the equipment. But what happens when you have no functional model of the equipment? You blunder about... No? Now ask yourself, do we have a functional model of the human as an integrated system? Now, I've gone through many books and papers, and most google pages regarding this, and I can say that the answer is, 'no. We don't have such a model in present knowledge systems'. The model is only suggested. At least, there's a recent Nobel prize that brought the model closer. The Nobel prize for medicine for 2017. The results of the above work go back to previous research across various disciplines, and the result is a 'game computation model of the atom'. Now all composite systems follow the game computation model. Ditto humans. When you look closer, you discover that the organs integrited through the brain, are transceivers and effectors of computations by the integral human system. And the main computational areas are the body plexus. So the secret of disease and health depends on the robustness of the computational centers. When these computational areas are sub-optimal, then sub-oltimal responses ensue and different kinds of switches are activated, and depending on probabilities and resonances among different vectors diseases ensue.

Thing is, smoke causes a myriad of diseases, cancer being amongst them. Our rural folk use firewood to cook. Most use 3-stones which is inefficient and produces the killer smoke.
It's never occurred to me .....but i connected this with two cases i know from around my village. Some old folks who raised us back in the days and i am certain they used firewood all their lives. I have also seen news of Mama Oliech's death ( May she rest in peace). One of the pictures doing rounds shows her in the famous fish place and i noted a couple of firewood jikos. She was a known cancer case. How bad is it and are there deliberate steps to tide the use of firewood since it seems our women are cooking for us into their early graves?? If you've ever operated a 3-stone jiko then without doubt you know what I mean. Look inside the room where 3-stones are (for ease of reference, you can call them kitchens), even if they are outdoor, they are coated with soot. Sebuse lungs? Those 3 stones are worse than cigarettes! Our old folks were saved an early grave by the food they ate and the activities they undertook, which translated to exercise. Times have changed... They now eat bread and take public transport. The onus is upon you, the educated offsprings, to save them. Mulipelekwa shule ya nini? Ebu organize for funding we make these molds for en-mass production of smokeless firewood jikos... and wood vinegar, we curb killer pesticides

@Angelica, @Njung'e and c. I've been trying to find an easy way of explanation and I realize that means a short course in the emerging scientific paradigm - though it's also the traditional and ancient paradigm.
So Stephen Wolfram's 'A new kind of science' would be a fair introduction to some of the key concepts that can make my above post more intelligible.
One may also do a google course by starting with the book's wikipedia page and intelligently move along the links. A week of doing so may be a sufficient introduction.
I don't know where you can get a good introduction in traditional medicine, maybe if you ask me questions.
We're certainly moving into a 'new' paradigm that has a better grasp of how a human works, a comprehensive philosophy of mind and generally, a new cosmology.
With it comes a new understanding of disease and its treatment.

There are some who believe that after 25, and with proper care, our brains can only get better with age...

ATTENTION: FDA wrote:FDA announces voluntary recall of several medicines containing valsartan following detection of an impurity
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration is alerting health care professionals and patients of a voluntary recall of several drug products containing the active ingredient valsartan, used to treat high blood pressure and heart failure. This recall is due to an impurity, N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA), which was found in the recalled products. However, not all products containing valsartan are being recalled. NDMA is classified as a probable human carcinogen (a substance that could cause cancer) based on results from laboratory tests. The presence of NDMA was unexpected and is thought to be related to changes in the way the active substance was manufactured.
Information for Patients and Health Care Professionals
Because valsartan is used in medicines to treat serious medical conditions, patients taking the recalled valsartan-containing medicines should continue taking their medicine until they have a replacement product.
To determine whether a specific product has been recalled, patients should look at the drug name and company name on the label of their prescription bottle. If the information is not on the bottle, patients should contact the pharmacy that dispensed the medicine.
If a patient is taking one of the recalled medicines listed below, they should follow the recall instructions provided by the specific company. This information will be posted to the FDA’s website.
Patients should also contact their health care professional (the pharmacist who dispensed the medication or doctor who prescribed the medication) if their medicine is included in this recall to discuss their treatment, which may include another valsartan product not affected by this recall or an alternative treatment option.

An interesting thing about this case is also about how it exposes the abuse/misuse of science to justify the needs of capital. Capital may be a cause of cancer... But my concern is how one can take responsibility of himself to the point of not being duped by science and big money in order to have an optimal life.
