Random DNA mistakes causes cancers

Cancer center scientists reported that unpredictable DNA copying errors is responsible for two - thirds of the mutation that cause cancer. This is confirmed by DNA sequencing and epidemiologic data across the globe.

According to professor John Hopkins Kimmel, anytime a normal cell divides to form two new cells, it makes multiple mistakes, these mistakes are source of cancer mutation that have been ignored in the past. This revealed the reasons why people that embraced healthy lifestyle are having cancer.

Researchers studies 32 types of cancers and estimate that 66 percent of cancer mutations occur from coping mistakes, 29 percent from environmental factors and 5 inherited.

Living healthy lifestyle can reduce rates of cancer mutations because mutation can not be stopped from taking place in the body.
