Cancer Defined
The term “cancer” houses more than 100 different diseases caused by the abnormal multiplication of body cells at an uncontrollable rate. The human body is made up of about 30 trillion cells (30,000,000,000,000). Normally, these cells are produced and reproduced through a process called cell division.
