-According to a 2006 estimate, 18% of the global cancer burden is attributable to infectious agents, but almost every indication is that this figure is far too conservative.(({{pubmed>long:20930075}})) Researchers confined by the logic of Koch's postulates have looked for a single microbe causing a single disease. Evidence is accumulating, however, that it is communities of microbes that are responsible for cancer. According to the Marshall Pathogenesis, chronic microbes persist, in large part, by dysregulating the Vitamin D Receptor (VDR), a key nuclear receptor with a well-characterized role in both the innate immune response and metastasis suppression. Indeed one of the hallmarks of cancer is a disruption in the vitamin D endocrine system including high 1,25-D and slowed activity of the receptor. As they progressively multiply through a process known as successive infection, microbes elicit an inflammatory response, a response which has been shown to increase over time the risk of metastasis. +According to a 2006 estimate, 18% of the global cancer burden is attributable to infectious agents, but almost every indication is that this figure is far too conservative.(({{pubmed>long:20930075}})) Researchers confined by the logic of Koch's postulates have looked for a single microbe causing a single disease.

 Several patients have worked with their doctors to treat their cancer with the Marshall Protocol. However, the MP appears to be most effective as a preventative measure. Several patients have worked with their doctors to treat their cancer with the Marshall Protocol.

 Alicia H. Chang and Julie Parsonnet of Stanford University writes that a transmissible cause of cancer was suspected as early as the 16th century. It was not until the late 20th century definitively identified a bacterial cause of at least some types of cancer to most researchers' satisfaction.(({{pubmed>long:20930075}})) Identifying the full range of microbes which cause cancer, however, has been more challenging. To date, there have been a handful of cases that fulfill Koch's postulates (e.g., //H. pylori// and gastric cancer) where a single microbe is known to cause a single type of cancer. Consistent with Koch, researchers have tended to work in this vein, for example, looking at the 500+ species that inhabit the colon in the hopes of pinpointing the one and only bacterial species responsible for colorectal cancer.(({{pubmed>long:20930075}})) Alicia H.

 According to Chang,(({{pubmed>long:20930075}})) Virchow first described the irritation hypothesis of carcinogenesis in the 19th century concluding that chronic irritation stimulated the cancer cells to grow. The inflammatory process is characterized by damage caused by the host's immune response to the infection rather than by the infecting organism itself. Over 100 years since Virchow's discoveries, the “chronic irritation hypothesis” remains a widely supported mechanism for carcinogenesis by infectious agents. Today the relationship between inflammation, innate immunity and cancer is widely accepted.(({{pubmed>long:21088404}}))  According to Chang,(({{pubmed>long:20930075}})) Virchow first described the irritation hypothesis of carcinogenesis in the 19th century concluding that chronic irritation stimulated the cancer cells to grow.

 +In this large prospective study, (101 257 participants aged 18 and over, mean age 42.2, SD 14.4; median follow-up time 5.1 years)  the consumption of sugary drinks was positively associated with the risk of overall cancer and breast cancer. 100% fruit juices were also positively associated with the risk of overall cancer. These results need replication in other large scale prospective studies. They suggest that sugary drinks, which are widely consumed in Western countries, might represent a modifiable risk factor for cancer prevention.
