Cervical Cancer

Cervical cancer is a malignant neoplasm arising from cells originating in thecervix uteri. One of the most common symptoms of cervical cancer is abnormalvaginal bleeding, but in some cases there may be no obvious symptoms until the cancer has progressed to an advanced stage.[1] Treatment usually consists of surgery (including local excision) in early stages, and chemotherapy and/orradiotherapy in more advanced stages of the disease. Signs and Symptoms The early stages of cervical cancer may be completely asymptomatic.[1][2] Vaginal bleeding, contact bleeding, or (rarely) a vaginal mass may indicate the presence of malignancy. Also, moderate pain during sexual intercourse and vaginal discharge are symptoms of cervical cancer. In advanced disease, metastases may be present in the abdomen, lungs or elsewhere.

Potassium Nitrate for Stronger and Healthier Plants

Potassium nitrate is virtually free of chloride. When the chloride concentration in the soil solution increases, plants take up chloride on the account of essential anionic nutrients, especially nitrate. This, of course, hinders plant growth. When chloride quantities go higher, toxic effects are caused, that may lead to loss of yields and may even cause plant death. Potassium nitrate is virtually free of detrimental chloride, and the nitrate in potassium nitrate counteracts the chloride's harmful effect. Potassium nitrate is non-toxic to roots. Unlike ammonium, the nitrate-nitrogen in potassium nitrate does not destroy plant roots at elevated soil
