About Leukemia
Leukemia is a type of cancer that involves the blood and tissue that forms the blood and bone marrow. The cause of leukemia is unknown, but certain risk factors can cause it. Some risk factors include exposure to radiation, which include surviving an atomic bomb blast, diagnostic x-rays and radiation therapy. Other risk factors are smoking, benzene, chemotherapy and even Downs syndrome.
About Blood
The average adult has about five liters of blood inside of their body, coursing through their vessels, delivering essential elements, and removing harmful wastes. Without blood, the human body would stop working. Blood transports oxygen from the lungs to the body’s tissue and carbon dioxide from the body tissue to the lungs. Blood is the fluid of growth, transporting nourishment from digestion and hormones from glands throughout the body. Blood is the fluid of health, transporting disease fighting substances to the tissue and waste to the kidneys.
