      To save a click:
      Science believes that the constant motion of the heart, the stretching and relaxing of the muscle makes it much more difficult for cancer to latch onto.
      They are looking at this perspective to potentially find cures for other cancers.

    2. Surely it has something to do with the incredibly slow rate of cellular turnover in the heart? During a normal life, something like less than 50% or heart cells get replaced.

    3. To say that “cancer almost never spreads to the heart” is quite inaccurate. Cardiac metastasis most certainly occurs and we see it more than a lot of other organs.

      My understanding of the heart is that it is primarily a type of muscular cell, which doesn’t really seem to be cancer-prone generally, right? that would leave metastatic cases which the article does acknowledge.

    5. Cancer meds that cause your whole body to convulse – “You’re cured! Congrats!”
