    • Abstract:
      The article focuses on brain tumors. According to Dr. Keith Black, author of the book "Brain Surgeon: A Doctor's Inspiring Encounters With Mortality and Miracles," the development of brain tumors is related to environmental, genetic and nutritional factors. Textile workers and those who work in plastics plants have a higher risk of developing brain tumors. Nitrates, vinyl chloride and microwave radiation from cell phones are also discussed.
