DownloadSomewhere in your body, your immune system just quietly killed one of your own cells,
stopping it from becoming cancer, and saving your life. It does that all the time.
The vast majority of cancer cells you develop will be killed without you ever
noticing. Which is an incredibly hard job because of what cancer cells are:
parts of yourself that start to behave as individuals even if it hurts you.
What is cancer and how does your body kill it all the time?
INTRO
Cancer is when corrupted cells multiply uncontrollably.
It can emerge from basically every type of cell in your body,
so there is not just a single type of cancer but hundreds.
Some grow slowly, others are aggressive, some can be treated effectively, others are deadly.
