Dr. Rath Health Alliance<br />

How cancer cells spread<br />

Collagen-destroying<br />

enzyme<br />

• Cancer cells produce biological cutting<br />

tools, or enzymes, with the help of which<br />

they cut through the surrounding<br />

connective tissue in order to proliferate<br />

through the body, rather like a jungle<br />

expedition hacking its way through the<br />

undergrowth with the aid of machetes.<br />

• All types of cancer, regardless of the<br />

organ they originate in, use this<br />

mechanism in order to spread.<br />

• The more enzymes are produced by a<br />

given type of cancer the more malignant<br />

the cancer will be and the shorter the<br />

patient’s life expectancy.<br />
