Alistair Lax, professor of cellular microbiology at King’s College, London has confirmed what icon has been telling you from the outset. Professor Lax cites Helicobacter pylori as the prime suspect in stomach cancer. His figures indicated that one in three people may be carriers and he went on to suggest other cancers may be eventually linked to bacteria in the body. He specifically mentioned renal, stomach and bowel cancers but said that, since bacteria produced toxins and could be found universally in the body, other cancers may have bacteria as a causal factor.
