Scientists have found the strongest evidence to date that a condition known as Barrett’s oesophagus is the starting point for all cases of oesophageal adenocarcinoma – the most common type of oesophageal cancer in the developed world – even when telltale signs of this pre-cancerous stage are no longer visible.



I’m going to build a lab, because not only are there so many things to test now (and insurances love to spend a few extra bucks on labs, to catch a disease early and lower the overall expenses), but people will also want to test themselves not just when they feel bad, but on a regular basis, every 3 months or something, if they know they can heal many cancers without radiation or chemical therapy.
