Can you get cancer if you "accidentally" eat a tumor?

That depends heavily on the marinade.  If one uses something spicy, perhaps a cajun dry rub or even a robusto Italian, the tumor should be rendered benign.  If you marinate in something sweet, like traditional BBQ sauce, you might want to go for a checkup.\n\n(What is that they say about asking a stupid question?)

When you burn a substance, you're changing the chemical formula so that it has has excess carbon in it. Carbon is a known carcingen (cancer causing-agent). It is basically a poison that causes cells to mutate. So yes, don't eat burnt anything.

you can get cancer without ever smoking or chewing.  you dont have any more to worry about than before your risky adventure.  Short term usage has only been known to cause retracted testicles.

Not exactly. It is more likely that depression and stress weaken your immune system, which then fails to kill cancerous cells. Cells go cancerous in your body all the time, but are killed almost instantly most of the time.

Yes but the receiving person cannot develop cancer from it.\nCancer is a condition where the cells in the human body become confused as to what their job is and as a result they start attacking the body laying waste to it.  Since her white blood cells are healthy(I'm assuming), they will recognize the strange cells as something that is not supposed to be there and kill them.\n\nIf the woman got cancer later on, it would have nothing to do with you.\n\nYou can relax.

Hereditary in the fact that all people in the world are related in one way or the other. So, yes . . anyone, of any age, race, sex, or despite whether they eat health foods or candy bars for lunch, exercise or are couch potatoes, smoke or not . . anyone can get cancer. There are trillions of cells in the human body, and at any moment one of the could become cancerous. \n\nCancer is hereditary, but not predictable. If your mother had breast cancer, you may be at a higher risk for breast cancer . . . you may take all the precautions, check your breasts for lumps, do every single thing right to check for breast cancer . . and than be totally shocked when cancer is discovered in your kidney, or colon, or that you have leukemia. The fact that your mother had breast cancer would be irrelevant. Or you may never get cancer at all. You cannot predict what will happen.\n\nThe only protection against cancer is to become as educated as you can possibly get to learn about all the warning signs, for any cancer. If you have any unusual bumps or lumps anywhere on your body . . have it checked immediately. It is also good to eat a well balanced healthy diet, exercise, learn to check your entire body for lumps or anything unusual, don't smoke or take drugs, and keep a healthy mind and attitude. That way should you ever find out you have cancer, you will be able to fight it. The healthier you are at diagnosis the more able you will be to fight the cancer successfully.

You would need a biopsy to know.  Cancer will kill you, so find out.  Caught early enough, surgery can cure a cancer.

No, it doesn't cause cancer.  You can do a quick internet search and see that it doesn't.  There is a lot of speculation, myth, and urban legends...so be careful.  Make sure you read it from a reliable source like:\nhttp://www.ctfa.org/Template.cfm?Section=Internet_Rumors&Template=/ContentManagement/ContentDisplay.cfm&ContentID=867

The answer is not so sweet! It can, if left untreated lead to throat cancer! I have had two relitives die of this in a short period of time. It is serious - see a doctor! I caught mine just in time before the lining of my esophagus changed, but not before the erosions on my esophagus. I am on medication that is working & I do not have the symptoms any more. Diet is also very important! I have found that certin foods/drinks will aggravate it.. See a doctor ASAP.

Yes they do because if you do not die from the cancer you die from the malnutrition caused by the Chemo destroying your digestive track and organs. To find out more check out below.

of course i am not a doctor but i have heard that a lot of times if you have surgery to remove a cancerous tumor a pieces can break off and circulate throughout the body.

Technically yes, since a "Tumor" means a "swelling" and a blow to the head can cause a bump. \n\nIf you, however, mean cancerous growth (which is probably what you are talking about), then no.

yes you can get cancer anywhere, the cell if not treated right away will spread to other organs so say you get it in you lungs,the cells multiple throughout your body to your liver heart kidneys, causing renal failure hep c,liver failure, resp failure ect. so im rambling but the answer is yes
