[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Hydraulic fracturing, also known as fracking, is a technique for obtaining oil and gas from shale rock. The process involves drilling into the earth and directing a high-pressure mixture of water, sand, and chemicals at rock.<\/p>\n

A highly controversial means of energy production, previous research<\/a> has associated fracking with significant adverse health effects, water contamination, and environmental damage. A review published in 2017<\/a> identified 55 chemicals released into air and water by fracking that may cause cancer, including 20 that have been shown to increase the risk of leukemia and lymphoma.<\/p>\n

For information on the Dr. Rath Research Institute\u2019s studies examining natural approaches to fighting these blood cancers, see the feature articles on leukemia<\/a> and lymphoma<\/a> on our website.<\/p>\n
