Reefa Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 We already knew that dogs’ insanely powerful noses can be used for so much more than just sniffing out Beggin’ Strips. A dog like a German Shepherd, with its 225 million scent receptors, can find hidden bombs, drugs, money, and plenty more things human beings couldn’t even begin to smell with our measly 5 million receptors.Past studies even showed dogs can smell lung cancer in a person’s breath. And now, doctors are discovering that they can train dogs to smell thyroid cancer in humans as well. A study conducted at The University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences and working with The Frankie Foundation, collected 34 urine samples from patients that potentially had thyroid cancer. They hadn’t undergone a biopsy yet so no one knew who had full-blown cancer and who had a more benign thyroid disease. The team then tasked Frankie, a German Shepherd trained to pick up the cancer’s distinct aroma, with delivering a nose diagnosis.After he made his picks, the biopsies were performed, and the dog correctly guessed 30 out of 34 results, 88.2 percent accuracy. The conclusions were fairly evenly split with 15 patients testing positive for cancer while the other 19 were not.http://www.geek.com/science/dogs-are-being-trained-to-sniff-your-urine-for-cancer-1617607/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryrynz Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Or you could just eat properly and avoid cancer, unless you're a poor soul who's been given cancer thanks to their parents diet, in which caseyou've likely got a much harder battle ahead having started which such a disadvantage. Greens. Lots of fucking greens people.If you're not eating a salad a day you're doing yourself a major disservice. Look after yourself, avoid sugary shit, eat fruits and veges like they're candy bars.Get some exercise and you'll feel more alive than most. Our body's are quite demanding (mostly thanks to our brain).. make sure you get plenty of nutrients, it will change your life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
