Cure Overweight by Cancer?

As people know, overweight can cause a lot of health problems, not to mention about the damage to the self-esteem of those fat dudes like me. 

And I think most of the people who have over-weight problem do think this way...




Well, at the beginning, we may have tried to be on diet, but then... 



and then 

and finally when anyone ask... 

Few weeks ago, I heard that the scientists have found a break through about curing cancer. I forgot about the details, I just remember that the new approach is making our own immune system to be able to detect and kill cancer cells instead of the traditional ways (source: http://www.cancer.gov/research/areas/treatment/immunotherapy-using-immune-system).


We may have to wait for a few years to see this approach to be used in real life but this news gives me an idea about using the cancer cells to help curing the overweight problem.

Steps will be as follow:

  1. Doctors induce cancer to the overweight patients
  2. While monitoring the growth of the cancer cells closely, the doctor can use the cancer cells to absorb the nutrition from the patients
  3. After a range of time and when the goal has reached, e.g. the patient has lost 20kg due to the lost of the nutrition (absorbed by the cancer cells), the doctor will now use the new way about curing cancer to kill all the cancer cells


This approach have two big assumptions:

  1. Doctors can use some kinds of drugs to quickly cause cancer to patients
  2. Doctors can effectively and permanently cure cancer

I know this sounds crazy and lots of technical challenges, but I believe most of the scientific inventions in our history sounded crazy at the beginning when someone proposed them.

Oh well, at this moment my mind is full of foods so I can't write more about scientific facts, but imagine, if this idea can be used in real life....
