What is NK immune cell?

NK Cell(Natural Killer Cell)

NK cells are natural killer cells that seek and exterminate cancer cells in our body.

 

This cell plays the role of voluntarily exterminating approximately 5,000 cancer cells produced naturally every day.

However, if vitality of NK cell is degraded and the extent of activation of NK cell decreases, it is not able to remove the newly generated cancer cells, which will increase exponentially and develop into malignant tumor.

If the vitality of NK cells is degraded, cancer cells proliferate exponentially.

 

If activation of NK cell is weakened

NK cell becomes dormant and inactive.

If activation of NK cell gets stronger

NK cell activation is enhanced and awakens dormant NK cells to attack and exterminate the cancer cells together.

Cause of aging and occurrence of cancer

Weakening of NK cells is the fundamental cause of occurrence of cancer

 

Approximately 1,000 ~ 5,000 cancer cells occur every day in the process of the division of somatic cells of the human body.

NK cell (natural killer cell), which is a type of leukocyte removes such cancer cells to protect all the normal cells in the body.

However, if the vitality of NK cells in the body drops, cancer cells will increase exponentially.

Functions and activities of NK cells

 

NK cell, when attacking cancer cell, etc

Secretes protein called perforin to puncture holes in the cancer cells and injects enzyme called Granzyme to induce explosion for extermination of the cancer cells.

10 Commandments of cancer prevention

1. Avoid smoking including indirect smoking
2. Consume sufficient vegetables and fruits, and have balanced meal
3. Refrain from eating too salty and sweet food
4. Restrict drinking to 1 or 2 glasses a day
5. Walk or exercised more than 30 minutes a day 5 times a week
6. Maintain body weight appropriate for one’s physical statue
7. Take hepatitis B vaccination in accordance with corresponding guidelines
8. Safeguard against infectious disease through practicing of safe sex life
9. Abide by safety rules to ensure you are not exposed to carcinogenic substance
10. Make sure to undergo regular medical examination in accordance with the guidelines for early cancer detection

One-third of the    nation’s population    dies of cancer.

 

Substantial reduction in the NK immune cell counts after the 50’s can become the cause of manifestation of cancer and aging.

 

Cancer patient has substantial reduction in the NK cell count in the body to 1/3 ~ 1/8 level of normal person, thereby resulting in degraded ability to control cancer cells.
