For the nine studies that reported an increase in knowledge levels for the general population, there was not always an explicit tie to improved health outcomes. While certain awareness topics that rely heavily on behavior change (such as antibiotic use) can presumably benefit from knowledge-based campaigns, the health benefit of knowledge about cancers and other ailments is less evident. #health #cancer #MentalHealthAwarenesMonth #cancerAwareness

New blood test spots cancer before scans.

Chinese scientists have built a highly sensitive blood test that can detect tiny traces of lung cancer long before a tumour shows up on a scan.

The convergence of three technologies, DNA nanotechnology, CRISPR, and quantum dots (how’s that for a 21st century cocktail) had made it possible to spot near-invisible warning signals in blood, opening the door to earlier diagnosis and faster treatment decisions. #Science #cancer #technology

Asbestos poisoning. I thought I was pretty safe. NO--it's still happening everywhere. It's a horrible problem.

This is a VERY important video. Everyone should know--and CARE. Public and political pressures should be increasing--they're diminishing.

But the company has warned that mounting legal costs are threatening its ability to continue selling the product in U.S. agricultural markets.
