1 The role of CANSA in preventing environmental cancer. Dr Carl Albrecht & Sue Janse van Rensburg AORTIC CONFERENCE, CAIRO, EGYPT; 30th November 2011
2 A few words about CANSA Alice Victor Manager, CANSA Science & Resource Centre. Section 21 Company Not for profit 80 years old Research, Education, Support 300 staff volunteers cancer patients p.a. Budget: R100 M Research Reserves: R100 M Research p.a. R5-10 M Source of funds: Public & Lotto
3 Cancer is the leading cause of death worldwide Cancer AIDS TB Malaria A+T+M
4 Where does cancer come from? Most new born babies are cancer free* * Pediatric cancers = 3% of total
5 The environment attacks our DNA that is what cancer is about
6 ORIGIN OF CANCER? If the majority of babies are born cancer free, where does cancer come from? 90% of cancers are due to DNA damaging factors (carcinogens) in the environment during and after birth.
7 Two approaches to keep humans cancer-free prevention cure Cancer should be conquered in this century
8 Our view of cancer prevention intercept/counter-act carcinogen Glutathione Inside cells Enhanced deactivation Outside body Inside blood stream Antibodies

15 Final destination - Legislation
16 HEALTH24 SA declares war on trans fats South Africans health is set to improve when new legislation kicks in on 17 August 2011to limit artery-clogging artificial trans fats in all food products. The Department of Health has confirmed that the use of artificial trans fats, which has been linked to an increased risk of heart disease, will be limited to a maximum of 2% in all foods.
17 Decision made by CANSA to have all margarines analysed for fatty acid contents Forty different margarine products bought from three different commercial outlets. 4 th July 2008
18 Margarines delivered to CSIR 4 th July 2008
19 RESULTS TRANS-FATS. All forty margarine products had trans-fat concentrations (grams/100 grams margarine) of less than 2 percent Percentage trans fats This is within the boundary set by the Department of Health in the Government 1.4 Gazette of 30 March 2010 where it states that the trans-fat content should not exceed grams per 100 grams of product foodstuff as consumed The results and the pending legislation is good news and hopefully trans-fats will cease to be a problem in South Africa
20 RESULTS: Ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 fatty acids The omega-6/omega-3 ratio differs widely (up to 20-fold) when the different margarines were compared. The lowest was 2.21 and the highest was Ratio of omega-6 to omega-3 in 40 margarines There is growing consensus that this ratio 45 should be low, in the order of 2 to 1, to be beneficial and to reduce the risk of cancer by 40 counteracting inflammation. 35 Analysis of the data showed that there were two margarine products with ratios of 2.21 and 2.31 (see red arrows). These two products were Blossom Canola Margarine and Blossom Canola Light Margarine
21 3 Stages of optimal cancer prevention by CANSA Legislation Advocacy Research
22 Conclusions There is a great need to prevent cancer because environmental factors (carcinogens)are attacking our DNA. Prevention involves counteracting carcinogens and banning them if possible. Prevention also needs optimal human biochemistry to overcome carcinogens in vivo. Legislation is a meaningful, measureable outcome. Prevention research, advocacy and facilitation of legislation can enhance the status of an anti-cancer NGO, especially with the public who are supporting the NGO financially. The research is easy to understand and is down to earth. CANSA spends only 10% of research funds on prevention as described here. The return on this investment has been remarkable and is highly recommended.
