Foreword ("The Adventures of Jonathan Gullible" Epilogue by Ken Schoolland)
"My philosophy is based on the principle of self- ownership. You own your life. To deny this is to imply that another person has a higher claim on your life than you do. No other person, or group of persons, owns your life nor do you own the lives of others. You exist in time: future, present, and past. This is manifest in life, liberty, and the product of your life and liberty. The exercise of choices over life and liberty is your prosperity. To lose your life is to lose your future. To lose your liberty is to lose your present. And to lose the product of your life and liberty is to lose the portion of your past that produced it. A product of your life and liberty is your property. Property is the fruit of your labour, the product of your time, energy, and talents. It is that part of nature that you turn to valuable use. And it is the property of others that is given to you by voluntary exchange and mutual consent. Two people who exchange property voluntarily are both better off or they wouldn’t do it. Only they may rightfully make that decision for themselves. At times some people use force or fraud to take from others without willful, voluntary consent. Normally, the initiation of force to take life is murder, to take liberty is slavery, and to take property is theft. It is the same whether these actions are done by one person acting alone, by the many acting against a few, or even by officials with fine hats and fancy titles. You have the right to protect your own life, liberty, and justly acquired property from the forceful aggression of others. So you may rightfully ask others to help protect you. But you do not have a right to initiate force against the life, liberty, or property of others. Thus, you have no right to designate some person to initiate force against others on your behalf. 9
You have a right to seek leaders for yourself, but would have no right to impose rulers on others. No matter how officials are selected, they are only human beings and they have no rights or claims that are higher than those of any other human beings. Regardless of the imaginative labels for their behaviour or the numbers of people encouraging them, officials have no right to murder, to enslave, or to steal. You cannot give them any rights that you do not have yourself. Since you own your life, you are responsible for your life. You do not rent your life from others who demand your obedience. Nor are you a slave to others who demand your sacrifice. You choose your own goals based on your own values. Success and failure are both the necessary incentives to learn and to grow. Your action on behalf of others, or their action on behalf of you, is only virtuous when it is derived from voluntary, mutual consent. For virtue can only exist when there is free choice. This is the basis of a truly free society. It is not only the most practical and humanitarian foundation for human action; it is also the most ethical. Problems that arise from the initiation of force by government have a solution. The solution is for people of the world to stop asking officials to initiate force on their behalf. Evil does not arise only from evil people, but also from good people who tolerate the initiation of force as a means to their own ends. In this manner, good people have empowered evil throughout history. Having confidence in a free society is to focus on the process of discovery in the marketplace of values rather than to focus on some imposed vision or goal. Using governmental force to impose a vision on others is intellectual sloth and typically results in unintended, perverse consequences. Achieving a free society requires courage to think, to talk, and to act – especially when it is easier to do nothing."

Preface Having witnessed how cancer systematically wiped out my own family members and friends, I became aware of the severity of the situation the modern society faces today. I disagree with the vision of ending this life somewhere in a cold hospital death bed, suffering from agonizing pain which lasts a small eternity. Dying without dignity is not the right way to end this beautiful life… I have no idea how others cope with this dreadful vision, but I decided to hit the "emergency button". I seriously started to think about what we can do to heal cancer and prevent it from spreading in modern day society. I have devoted my professional life together with my personal commitment to the exploration of the world’s natural healing systems because nature has no side-effects. The fruits of my CANCER HEALING CRUSADE are this masterwork. It is the most complex HISTORICAL REVIEW OF CANCER HEALING, based on the knowledge of the world’s ancient healing arts and successful pioneers that have stood the test of time. For the first time in the human history, you will see them all standing at one place, "running the show", and healing once again because this book collection carries a real life-saving potential. It is also a safe alternative for you unless you are interested in cultivating and maintaining chronic diseases with chemical drugs and barbaric surgical operations as well as the physical, emotional, and financial breakdown that is caused by the current system of disease management. Some call it building up powerful health, but I call it LIFE BUILDING. YOU’VE JUST FOUND YOUR MAN ON THE WAY TO YOUR HEALTH!
11
Introduction "The Education of Cancer Healing" is the MOST comprehensive and COMPLETE study collection on the history of cancer healing on the market today. Totaling more than 2500 pages filled with invaluable information, this magnum opus holds answers to your questions regarding cancer and many other diseases. These books give you information which is in fact a HEALING DYNAMITE, covered by thousands of scientific and medical studies, independent professionals, and dozens of patient and witness testimonials. With this masterwork, I am giving you the BEST of my own research – the product of $300,000 and the result of more than 20,000 hours of exhaustive and careful research in the field of cancer. Where is cancer? It’s all around us! In fact, cancer cells develop spontaneously on a daily basis and they develop in YOUR body, too. Some findings even claim that a healthy individual develops about 350 cancerous cells a day. The number goes up to 100,000 cancerous cells and higher. Some do get cancer, some do not... How come that someone gets seriously ill but someone else doesn’t? How is that!? What makes the body develop these cancer cells further? My mission is to give you THE SUPER KNOWLEDGE – the foundation for super powers that are within you, so that you can heal yourself of cancer (and any other disease), and live your life to the fullest potential! I will be your guide on your way to POWERFUL HEALTH. This life is a blessing, so squeeze the best out of it! At the end of this study, I want YOU to be strong and confident enough to stare death right in the face… and spit in it. I truly wish you to grab hold of another 20, 30 or 40 years and live a wonderful life – as anyone really deserves!
12
Somebody told me once, "Peter, your topic makes me uncomfortable." Yes, I have to admit that this book is really going to be a tough reading… but hey! Only the tough ones survive, right?! HALLELUJAH! It’s my job to make you feel a bit uncomfortable! The concept of natural healing arts is identical with the concept of ancient martial arts: it is all about living OUTSIDE THE COMFORT ZONE because that’s the place where magic happens. Yes, we need to get uncomfortable to understand our dangers and realize the seriousness of the situation. In this volume I will show you a full story behind cancer epidemics. Consider this Cancer Theory 1.0.2. On these pages you will be revealed the story how medical association conquered the world. You will be revealed things you have never seen, nor heard of before. This book opens up the world which has been hidden from you by the world’s industries for decades. You may not know anything about this hidden world, but the fact remains that cancer cells are here and our life-style feeds them. Not only that you yourself develop life-threatening and dehumanizing diseases, but also increase the risk of cancer for your own children as well as other future generations. You can run away from this fact, but you cannot really hide! Have you ever admitted the existence of this problem? What steps have you taken to win your health back...?
13
The good news is that cancer CAN be PREVENTED effectively. It CAN also be HEALED – with the right KNOWLEDGE and DISCIPLINE. To admit that you have a problem is the first step to solving it. Cancer is projected for EVERY second male and every third female by 2030. In other words: you cannot stop your body from developing cancerous cells, but you CAN DO a lot to expunge them out safely and efficiently by cultivating a STRONG DEFENSE SYSTEM and CREATING a POWERFUL BODY. If you care about your liberty and preserving it, you need to care about your health. If you want to be healthy, study "The Education of Cancer Healing" study collection today. READ IT, LOVE IT, LIVE IT! Realize the severity of the situation, and act. TODAY. Take the responsibility for your health NOW, before you allow your health and freedom to be taken away by the world’s leading health industries.
Welcome to The Education of Cancer Healing, Volume 2: SPECIALISTS.

Havasi Life Building – Building a Powerful Body Healing cancer is about EDUCATION. It is about learning how to live in harmony with the laws of nature. Over the centuries, these laws have been explored and now are contained in many ARTS OF HEALING AND FIGHTING. The beauty of this combination lies in its connection: one art cannot live without the other. If you want to heal yourself of any disease, if you want to design a high quality life and have a successful family, it is absolutely important to study and practice the ways how to heal diseases as well as how to cultivate an unbeatable body, mind and spirit. This is the combination that makes healing miracles happen. At the end of the day, you will realize that true natural healing and life building is all about education, harmony, and a warrior’s spirit, together with a day-to-day kicking of your own butt. This I call Havasi Life Building, a new self-oriented medical discipline which searches for PERFECTION in physical, emotional and spiritual aspects of YOUR health. The Shock Therapy – The Warrior’s Attitude: What I am going to show you in this book is not a bed of roses. What you are going to see is the history of cancer epidemics – a survival study that is hard to swallow! Cancer is not a fairy tale. Never was and never will be. Yes, this book kicks some serious ass and may even wipe the floor up with you. It will make you paralyzed, it may bring nightmares and it will make you wonder what planet you live on. The book you are holding in your hands is evil – but so is the world around you! I was just trying to reflect as much of the real world behind cancer as possible – even though there is probably much more to this topic than meets the eye.
16
Today, you may find this book evil and unconventional. Following the future volumes of "The Education of Cancer Healing", you will, however, realize that this book is an ESSENTIAL EVIL. It is the shock therapy which wakes a dead man up, opens his eyes, mobilizes his actions, and makes things happen. One day you will realize that this study collection has the potential of SAVING LIVES! Before you dive into the world of saving lives and natural healing, it is important to learn how people are killed today. Know your enemy, whoever or whatever it may be! THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT LESSON I TEACH! BE STRONG! After years of studies I realized that everything is all about "LEAVING THE COMFORT ZONE"! If you want to start changing things, you must find the strength to step outside of it because EVERY HEALING MIRACLE HAPPENS OUTSIDE THE COMFORT ZONE. I confess: my aim is to make you FEEL UNCOMFORTABLE! In order to wake you up, your world must be shaken vigorously. Pain – physical, emotional, or spiritual – can be a valuable asset for escalation of your actions. Throughout the millennia, your body, mind, and spirit have originally evolved in different ways of pleasure from the ones promoted by the today’s standard society. This master study will wake up the warrior inside you. BE STRONG! If this book makes you feel fear – use it! If you feel anger – use it! I want you to JUMPSTART your ACTIONS, and start CHANGING things today! I challenge you! Realize the seriousness of the situation today – before it’s too late! Start living, thinking, and acting as a warrior does on the battlefield.
17
Taking the Responsibility and Predicting Dangers One of the outcomes of studying the world of cancer healing is the cultivation of RESPONSIBILITY and PREDICTION/PREVENTION OF DANGERS. If you want to avoid dangers, predicting them is super important! Learning the history of events which happened gives you a sense of things which are very likely to take place in the future. Cultivating a strong sense of danger prediction and prevention is the vital aspect of Havasi Life Building. We can see that that people stopped sensing and taking the full responsibility for their lives and actions. If people are not able to take responsibility for their physical, emotional, and spiritual health, HOW CAN THEY TAKE CARE OF THE OTHERS? While the standard society seeks pleasure, a LIFE BUILDER builds up an UNBEATABLE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT as well as cultivates A CHARACTER OF A WARRIOR that is able to sense, predict and prevent dangers. This scenario can be applied to health and other aspects of your life, including cancer epidemics. Havasi Life Building teaches you how to walk the path of an ancient warrior – A TRUE MODEL – the missing key in modern society. THE STOP–START THEORY Healing yourself of cancer and building up powerful health is all about to STOP doing things that cause disease, and START doing things that heal your body, mind, and spirit! This is the most fundamental and simple theory. On the other hand, for many people it is also the most difficult task to achieve.
18
Ancient Chinese philosopher Lao-Tzu said, "A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step." The first steps are always the most difficult ones to take. To succeed, you must put an enormous pressure upon your body, mind, and spirit while doing those first steps. Behind every success there is 100% devotion, followed by hard, hard work. I truly believe that every human being is equipped with a mind of unlimited boundaries. If there are boundaries – they are made by YOU! Whatever you want to achieve, I know that YOU WILL, you just HAVE TO be ready to fight for it! The biggest threat lies in the limitations you have set to your knowledge and mind. If you want to prevent from this disastrous road to hell, IT IS ABOUT TIME to make a change today! The Final Product At the end of the day, the concept remains unchanged. I want you to start BUILDING UP POWERFUL HEALTH TODAY. This concept is the absolute foundation for peace, love, and happiness. However, I have to point out that these heavenly assets don’t come for free! EVERYTHING YOU WANT, YOU CAN HAVE IT. BUT YOU MUST BE READY TO FIGHT FOR IT!
"A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step." - Lao- tzu

Surgery in Cancer Treatment
"Everything is relative" - Albert Einstein 20
(~ 25 BC) Celsus (~ 1350 AD) Guy de Chauliac (~ 1620 AD) Wilhelm Fabry (~ 1900 AD) William S. Halsted
Celsus (- 25 BC - 50 AD) was a 2nd century Greek philosopher and opponent of Early Christianity.
Guy de Chauliac (ca. 1300 –1368) was a French physician and surgeon who wrote a treatise on surgery.
(The following information is excerpted from: Alternative Cancer Remedies – Facts for Historians and Medical Researchers by Vance Ferrell, Pilgrims Books, 1998 USA)1
"(Advanced cancer is)" irritated by treatment; and the more so the more vigorous it is." - Celsus "It should be forbidden and severely punished to remove cancer by cutting, burning, cautery, and other fiendish tortures. It is from nature that the disease comes, and from nature comes the cure, not from physicians." - Paracelsus, (1493- 1541 AD).
Celsus, in the 1st century A.D., described a surgery for cancer of the lip. A century later, Leonidese also wrote about cancer surgery. In the 14th "It is better not to apply any treatment in cases of occult century, Guy de Chauliac described a cancer; for if treated (by wide variety of cancer operations; and, surgery), the patients die quickly; but if not treated, two centuries later, Hildanus discussed they hold out for a long the first axillary dissection for breast time." - Hippocrates, (460- 370 cancer. In 1891, Halsted detailed the BC). first radical operation for breast cancer. His basic procedures are still in use. The following statement appeared in an important Eastern scientific journal: "Ten of our patients underwent an unsuccessful attempt by a surgeon to remove the tumor. All surgeons know that this procedure is USUALLY followed by an increased growth of the tumor . .

21
Wilhelm Fabry (1560 - 1634) the "Father of German surgery", was the first educated and scientific German surgeon.
William Stewart Halsted (1852 1922) introduced several new operations, including the radical mastectomy for breast cancer.
"Although the most common factor related to spontaneous regression in our monograph was excision [removal] of the primary [tumor], I cannot attach much importance to it because metastasis develops so commonly after excision of the primary."—"Spontaneous Regression of Cancer: The Metabolic Triumph of the Host?" Annals of the New York Academy of Science, 136- 137 [emphasis ours]. "Metastasis" does have significant risks, because it requires cutting through the protective wall keeping the cancer bottled up. When it is cut open (by the surgery), the cancer is likely to leaves its pocket (the tumor)—and begin quickly spreading tuyhjhhrough the bloodstream to other parts of the body. The same article noted that the statistical rate of "spontaneous regression" following surgery is 1 in 80,000 to 100,000 cases (op. cit., 111- 112). SPONTANEOUS REGRESSION occurs when the cancer subsequently disappears entirely from the body, for reasons which orthodox medicine says are unknown. The first statistical analysis of the survival rate after cancer surgery was done by Dr. Leroy d’Etoilles in 1844 and published by the French Academy of Science. Case histories of 2,781 patients (covering a 36- year period) were submitted by 174 physicians. The average survival was only one year and five months— about what the AVERAGE is today.
Reference: Alternative Cancer Remedies – Facts for Historians and Medical Researchers by Vance Ferrell, Pilgrims Books, 1998 USA 1
22
"The net value of surgery or caustics was, in prolonging life, two months for men and six months for women. But that was only in the first few years after the initial diagnosis. After that period, those who had NOT accepted treatment had the greater survival potential by about fifty percent."—Walter H. Walshe, The Anatomy, Physiology, Pathology and Treatment of Cancer, Boston, 1844 [emphasis ours]. But what is the survival rate today? In 1961, a large- scale controlled study was begun, to see if all the surgery was worthwhile. (By that time, not only the tumor was removed, but frequently the entire breast and lymph nodes, and often the ovaries also.) Results of the 7½- year study were conclusive: Difference in the percentage of patients remaining alive mattered little whether they received a cancer operation—or no operation or other treatment at all! (R.G. Ravdin, et. al., "Results of a Clinical Trial Concerning the Worth of Prophylactic Oophorectomy for Breast Carcinoma," Surgery, Gynecology and Obstetrics, December 1970.) A key factor here is that operations tend to OPEN UP THE CANCER, so it can begin to spread (metastasize) to other parts of the body. When cancers begin spreading to secondary locations in the body, the odds drop practically to zero, that the patient will Reference: Alternative Cancer Remedies – Facts for Historians and Medical Researchers by Vance Ferrell, Pilgrims Books, 1998 USA 1

"The answer of Richard Guy, Surgeon...to certain insidious Falsehood and Reflections upon his Method of Curing Cancers without Cutting...London 1764 AD. 100 cases Successfully treated.. Breast...incipient cancer...how easily in that State they are remediable by Care and Proper management;...the cancerous Humor is a Virus...the lymphatic vessels are the immediate instruments of its Circulation...carried and lodged..to those more remote ('glands')." Richard Guy, Practical Observations, 1762 AD. "It can no longer be doubted that under certain conditions diagnostic or surgical procedures can result in metastases. Analysis of metastatic growth rates has shown that from 30% (in hypernephroma) to 90% (in sarcoma and seminoma) of the diagnosed metastases were provoked by such procedures. This has been established by numerous animal experiments and clinical observations and necessitates a change in the currently held concept of cancer therapy. The previously applied and proven treatments by surgery and radiation must be preceded by metastasis prophylaxis. Three different ways to achieve such a prophylaxis are proposed. (...) Conclusion: The essential conclusion to be drawn from this investigation is that. the current generally held therapeutic concept of tumor therapy must be changed! " - Ernst H. Krokowski, M.D., Ph.D. (1926 - 1985), Professor of Medicine (Radiology) and Chief of the Central Institute of Radiology of Kassel Hospital in Germany.
survive. Johnstone says that, once metastasis occurs, the situation is almost out of control, as far as orthodox remedies are concerned. "A patient who has clinically detectable metastases when first seen has virtually a HOPELESS PROGNOSIS, as do patients who were apparently free of distant metastasis at that time but who subsequently return with distant metastasis."—F.R.C. Johnstone, M.D., California Medical Digest, August 1972, 838. In addition, the operation caused a large wound, which the already greatly weakened body must try to heal. Excluding skin cancers, according to ACS data, the statistical average is that the rate of long- term survival after surgery is ONLY 10- 15%. Once the cancer has metastasized to a second location, the cancer is in the bloodstream, and surgery has almost NO SURVIVAL VALUE. Before leaving this subject of cutting into cancer tissue, we should consider biopsies. Generally the first thing the physician wants to do, when a patient inquires whether he might have cancer, is to cut into the questionable tissue— in order to extract a small slice for microscopic examination. But this procedure is HIGHLY DANGEROUS, for it tends to spread the cancer. Even massaging a tumor is dangerous! Reference: Alternative Cancer Remedies – Facts for Historians and Medical Researchers by Vance Ferrell, Pilgrims Books, 1998 USA 1

"When (a tumor) is of long standing and large, you should leave it alone. For myself have never been able to cure any such, nor have I seen anyone else succeed before me." – Abu’l Qasim, (936 - 1013 AD). (Advanced cancer is) "irritated by treatment; and the more so the more vigorous it is (...)." "After excision, even when a scar has formed, nonetheless the disease has returned, and caused death; while ...the majority of patients, although no violent measures are applied in the attempt to remove the tumor, but only mild applications in order to sooth it, attain a ripe old age in spite of it." Celsus, (1st century AD). "Massage of a tumor is followed by massively increased numbers of circulating tumor cells in the blood stream . . Experimental data further suggest that surgical truama decreases natural host [body] resistance to the formation of metastasis . . "Needle biopsy is occasionally used, [but] . . a needle track may harbor nests of cells which may form the basis for a later recurrent spread. "Incisional biopsy of certain highly malignant tumors through an open operative field may be contraindicated because of risk of spread of the tumor throughout the operative field." — ACS and University of Rochester, Clinical Oncology for Medical Students and Physicians, 3rd ed., 32, 34. "My studies (show) untreated cancer victims actually live up to four times longer than treated individuals." - Dr. Hardin B. Jones, (in Spotlight, 1981).
"The anatomist Anreas Vesalius (1514 – 1564 AD) tried to discover the source for black bile, the fluid thought to be responsible for cancer. Unable to find it, Vesalius launched a new search for cancer’s real cause and cure." Reference: A biography of Cancer by Siddhartha Mukherjee (2011) 170
"Medieval Surgeons attacked cancer using primitive surgical methods. Johannes Scultetus (1595 - 1645) describes a mastectomy, the surgical removal of breast cancer, using fire and leather bindings." Reference: A biography of Cancer by Siddhartha Mukherjee (2011) 170
25
"Between 1800 and 1900, surgeons devised increasingly aggressive operations to attack the roots of cancer in the body. In the 1800s, William Steward Halsted at Johns Hopkins University devised the radical mastectomy – an operation to extirpate the breast, the muscles beneath the breast and the associated lymph nodes." Reference: A biography of Cancer by Siddhartha Mukherjee (2011) 170
""The patient was a young lady whom I was loath to disfigure," Halsted wrote. In this etching, Halsted presented an idealized patient.

The practice of medicine may not be the world's oldest profession, but it is often seen to be operating on much the same principles. Not only does the client wonder if he is getting what he is paying for, but in many instances, he is dismayed to find that he has actually gotten something he had not bargained for.

that as early as 1600 B.C., more than nine hundred prescriptions were available to the physician, including opium as a pain- killing drug. As late as 1700, commonly used medications included cathartics such as senna, aloe, figs and castor oil. Intestinal worms were treated by aspidium roots (the male fern), pomegranate bark, or wormseed oil. In the East this was obtained from the flowers of santonin; in the Western Hemisphere it was pressed from the fruit and leaves of chenopodium. Analgesics or pain relievers were alcohol, hyoscyamus leaves, and opium. Hyoscyamus contains scopolamine, used to induce "twilight sleep" in modem medicine. In the sixteenth century, Arabs used colchicum, a saffron derivative, for rheumatic pains and gout. Cinchona bark, the source of quinine, was used to treat malaria; chaulmoogra oil was used for leprosy, and ipecac for amoebic dysentery. Burned sponge at one time was used as a treatment for goiter; its content of iodine provided the cure. Midwives used ergot to contract the uterus. Some two hundred years ago, the era of modern medicine was ushered in by Sir Humphry Davy's discovery of the anaesthetic properties of nitrous oxide. Michael Faraday discovered ether, and Wilhelm Surtner isolated morphine from opium. Reference: Murder by Injection: The Story of the Medical Conspiracy Against America by Eustace Mullins (1995) 2

Until the late nineteenth century, doctors practiced as free lance agents, which meant that they assumed all the risks of their decisions. The poor rarely encountered a doctor, as medical ministrations were generally confined to the rich and powerful. Curing a monarch could bring great rewards but failing to cure him could be a fatal mistake. Perhaps it was the awareness of the personal risks of this profession which gave rise to the plan for monopoly, to level out the risks and rewards among a chosen few. The attempts to build up this medical monopoly have now created a modem plague, while the resolve to maintain this monopoly has cost the public dearly in money and suffering. Almost five centuries ago, one of the first attempts to set up this monopoly took place in England. The Act of 1511, signed into law by King Henry the Eighth, in England, made it an offence to practice physic or surgery without the approval of a panel of "experts." This Act was formalized in 1518 with the founding of the Royal College of Physicians. In 1540, barbers and surgeons were granted similar powers, when the King granted approval of their company. They IMMEDIATELY launched a campaign to ELIMINATE THE UNAUTHORIZED PRACTITIONERS who had served the Reference: Murder by Injection: The Story of the Medical Conspiracy Against America by Eustace Mullins (1995) 2

"Unless we put medical freedom into the Constitution, the time will come when medicine will organize into an undercover dictatorship...To restrict the art of healing to one class of men and deny equal privileges to others will constitute the Bastille of medical science.

Princeton U. "...This large and expensive stock of drugs will be unnecessary. By...doses of...medicines...multiplying...combining them properly, 20 to 30 articles, aided by the common resources of the lancet, a garden, a kitchen, fresh air, cool water, exercise, will be sufficient to cure all the diseases that are at present under the power of medicine." - Dr. Benjamin Rush.

poor. Apparently there is nothing new under the sun, as much the same campaign has long been underway in the United States. This harassment of doctors who served the poor caused such widespread suffering in England that King Henry the 8th was forced to enact the Quacks Charter in 1542. This Charter exempted the "unauthorized practitioners" and allowed them to continue their ministrations. No such charter has ever been granted in the United States, where a "quack" is not only an unauthorized practitioner, that is, one who has not been "approved" by the American Medical Association or one of the government agencies under its control, but he is also subject to immediate arrest. It is interesting that the chartering of quacks is not one of the features of English life which was passed on to its American colony. In 1617, the Society of Apothecaries was formed in England. In 1832, the British Medical Association was chartered; this became the impetus for the forming of a similar association, the American Medical Association, in the United States. From its earliest inception, the American Medical Association has had one principal objective, ATTAINING AND DEFENDING A TOTAL MONOPOLY OF THE PRACTICE OF MEDICINE IN THE UNITED STATES.

the basis of its practice. Allopathy was a type of medicine whose practitioners had received training in a recognized academic school of medicine, and who relied heavily on surgical procedures and the use of medications. The leaders of this brand of medicine had been trained in Germany. They were dedicated to the frequent use of bleeding and heavy doses of drugs. They were inimical to any form of medicine which had not proceeded from the academies and which did not follow standardized or orthodox procedures. Allopathy set up an intense rivalry with the prevalent nineteenth school of medicine, the practice of homeopathy. This school was the creation of a doctor named Christian Hahnemann (1755- 1843). It was based on his formula, "similibus cyrentur," like cures like. Homeopathy is of even GREATER SIGNIFICANCE to our time, because it works through the immune system, using nontoxic doses of substances which are similar to those causing the illness. Even today, Queen Elizabeth is still treated by her personal homeopathic physician at Buckingham Palace. Yet, in the United States, organized medicine continues its frenetic drive to discredit and stamp out the practice of homeopathic medicine. Ironically, Dr. George H.

building that organization into a NATIONAL POWER, had for years run advertisements in Lincoln, Nebraska, where he practiced, which proclaimed that he was a "homeopathic physician." Clinical trials have shown that homeopathy is as effective as certain widely prescribed arthritic drugs, and also having the overriding advantage that it produces no harmful side effects. However, the accomplishments of homeopathy have historically been given the silent treatment, or, if mentioned at all, were greatly misinterpreted or distorted. A classic case of this technique occurred in England during the devastating outbreak of cholera in 1854; records showed that during this epidemic, deaths at homeopathic hospitals were only 16.4%, as compared to the death rate of 50% at the orthodox medical hospitals. This record was deliberately suppressed by the Board of Health of the City of London. During the nineteenth century, the practice of homeopathy spread rapidly throughout the United States and Europe. Dr. Hahnemann had written a textbook, "Homeopathica Materia Medica," which enabled many practitioners to adopt his methods.

doctors, by more than two to one. Because of the individualistic nature of the homeopathic profession, and the fact that they usually practiced alone, they were unprepared for the concerted onslaught of the allopaths. From its beginning, the AMA proved that it was merely a trade lobby, which had been organized for the purpose of stifling COMPETITION and driving the homeopaths out of business. By the early 1900s, as the AMA began to achieve this goal, American medicine began to enter its Dark Age (...).

The medical use of natural herbs and other nonpatentable forms of medical treatments, which had been effective for thousands of years, were essentially banned by Rockefeller’s Medical Establishment. Cures for cancer were vigorously rooted out, suppressed, and banned as well.

Chemotherapy is a treatment of disease by the use of chemicals that have a toxic effect.

The Rockefellers monopolized American medicine in the 1920’s. Along with IG Farben, Germany’s leading industrial organization, they held the monopoly on the world's chemical and pharmaceutical industries. It was the Rockefellers who during this period started selling chemotherapy and radiation to the U.S. and later to the world’s hospitals. The idea of chemotherapy was born during the Second World War and it was not originally intended for therapeutic purposes. Chemotherapy has its origins in chemical warfare as it was first intended for killing people. This substance is originally derived from sulfur mustard (its chemical formula is Cl- CH2- CH2- S- CH2- CH2- Cl), commonly known as Mustard gas. 146 While the doctors were testing this weapon on prisoners, they found out that administration of Mustard 41
"We’ve gone as far as we can with chemotherapy," says oncologist Herman Kattlove, the editor for the American Cancer Society. "With few new drugs coming out," he says, "chemotherapy is sort of a dead area..." "I'm giving cancer patients over here at this major cancer clinic drugs that are killing them, and I can't stop it because they say the protocol's what's important." And I say, "But the patient's not doing well." They say, "The protocol's what's important, not the patient." And he said, "You can't believe what goes on in the name of medicine and science in this country." - Gary Null 4 "There are laws against healing cancer. The doctor is not allowed to try anything else. He must use only those treatments that have already proven to be failures. Imagine what we could do, if this could be accepted. But there are laws against – you are not allowed to heal. There is too much money to be made of drugs." - Charlotte Gerson 5 "Cancer is a multi-billion dollar business. The drugs used in chemotherapy kill cancer cells – but they also kill healthy cells, too. That fact alone is bad enough, but it doesn't stop there. The drugs used in chemotherapy also have side-effects and many cause new cancers and new diseases, leading to the use of yet more drugs which in turn have new side effects. It’s a vicious circle and a license to print money for the pharmaceutical industry. The Chemo Facts website contains extracts from the "patient information leaflets" of these chemotherapy drugs, as published by the drug manufacturers themselves." - www.chemo-facts.com
gas caused the white blood cell count to drop. Military scientists thought it might have a similar impact on cancer cells, too. In the 1940’s, to test this theory, the doctors injected this gas intravenously to several patients suffering from advanced lymphomas, which caused a temporary improvement before they died from side effects caused by this chemical. Chemotherapy drugs are cytotoxic, which means that they poison the entire body, including cancer cells. This is like letting a nuclear bomb to explode inside of your body, causing everything to DIE. The main disadvantage of chemotherapy is that chemotherapy mercilessly poisons every living cell, including the T and B lymphocytes which are the MAIN BUILDING BLOCKS of OUR immune system. This therapy often ends killing your body faster than cancer itself. Chemotherapy is a silent killer – it is probably the only legal death shot known today! - FACT #1: Chemotherapy KILLS cells in intestines, making you to become malnourished because of severe diarrhea. - FACT #2: Chemotherapy KILLS hair follicles your hair fall out. - FACT #3: Chemotherapy KILLS cells in your reproductive system making you sterile.

Have a look at the cancer statistics to find out the truth. Chemotherapy is very far from healing. Today's chemotherapy drugs are the MOST TOXIC substances ever to be put deliberately into the human body – a legal death shot of the 21st century if you wish. Whatever you say about the cancer disease, there is no one who can claim it addresses the ROOT OF CANCER. Chemotherapy merely attacks the symptoms of cancer. There is NO DOCTOR in the world claiming that people get cancer because they are deficient in chemotherapy! 163

That is called a response rate, so you have a response... (but) when you look to see if there is any life prolongation from taking this treatment what you find is all kinds of hocus pocus and song and dance about the disease free survival, and this and that. In the end there is no proof that chemotherapy in the vast majority of cases actually extends life, and this is the GREAT LIE about chemotherapy, that somehow there is a correlation between shrinking a tumour and extending the life of the patient."- Ralph Moss, Ph.D. 7 "Chemotherapy targets dividing cells. The multitude of tests of new chemotherapy drugs test toxic (actually carcinogenic, or cancer-causing) substances against particular kinds of cancer cells in live patients. Usually this is done with half the cancer patients in the test taking an older chemotherapy drug. When there is even slightly more "response" with the new drug, and over 50% of the test group on the new drug survives, a new cancer drug is approved. Unfortunately, no cancer drug has "eyes" for only cancer cells. These drugs kill any dividing cell. Where are some of your fastest dividing cells? In your hair and your gut. That's why chemotherapy causes you to lose your hair and get nauseous. But these drugs also cause long-term damage to your organs kidneys, liver, heart, etc." - Bill Henderson 10 "[C]hemotherapy is basically ineffective in the vast majority of cases in which it is given." - Ralph Moss, Ph.D. 7
The hard facts are that what we are dealing here with is a DEADLY WARFARE, silently killing people. Is it safe? Personnel who administer these drugs take great precautions to avoid exposure, and still many of the nurses contract cancer because of their working in such a toxic environment! This is ABSURD! 160 75% of oncologists would refuse chemotherapy if they were diagnosed with cancer! Well, there is something wrong in here! 161 The sad part is that the MAINSTREAM MEDIA (controlled by the Rockefellers) made the crowd to see chemotherapy as a cutting edge method of treating cancer. Everything looks fancy; the companies constantly develop the substances and produce new brand names. But still, this doesn’t change the concept of KILLING HUMAN CELLS. Most doctors, even oncologists, find this type of therapy absurd. They know that statistically you live longer if you better do nothing at all. In case of CANCER, DOING NOTHING is a BETTER OPTION in terms of survivability and quality of life.159 The doctors providing this type of therapy have, in fact, NO CHOICE! Beside their signed contracts 44
"Success of most chemotherapy is appalling… There is no scientific evidence for its ability to extend in any appreciable way the lives of patients suffering from the most common organic cancer… chemotherapy for malignancies too advanced for surgery which accounts for 80% of all cancers is a scientific wasteland." - Dr Ulrich Abel, Lancet, Advanced Epithelial Cancer, (Largest study out of print!) 1990 11
"Last year, in the United States more people were killed by doctors and drugs than all the people killed in the Revolutionary war, in the Civil war, in WW1 and WW2, in Korea, in Vietnam and in the desert storm nightmare. Last year alone. Wow! Think about this for a minute. (...) More people have been killed in the last 2 decades, 20 years, by medicine than by all wars of all countries since the beginning of time on this planet. Wow. Think about that!" - Dr. Schulze, Natural Healing Crusade 12 "The American Medical Association is fashioned to prescribe drugs and perform various treatments that although they may be unsuspecting, tend to weed out the weaker species. The Council views the AMA's 'modern medicine' as barbaric." - Brice Taylor, Thanks For The Memories 13 "….chemotherapy’s success record is dismal. It can achieve remissions in about 7% of all human cancers; for an additional 15% of cases, survival can be "prolonged" beyond the point at which death would be expected without treatment. This type of survival is not the same as a cure or even restored quality of life." - John Diamond, M.D. 14
with hospitals, there is nothing else they can – and ARE ALLOWED to do. Don’t expect an oncologist to look into nutritional and herbal therapies or other fields of natural healing - they are paid to PRESCRIBE CONVENTIONAL TREATMENT! 158 Hey, we are just people and doctors are only employees! These people are trained to give you that feeling that they are something better, but in reality, they are not. Unfortunately, there is no other option for them; they are no longer arts of their profession. In some countries, it is illegal for them to offer the patient options coming from the outside of the medical fraternity. 155-157 Their job is to face patients with hopeless conditions, justify their approximate lifespan, prescribe the latest pharmaceutical drugs, and give you some hope – if any. Besides slicing you up and irradiating you with deadly ionizing radiation, they pump you up with deadly chemicals, and those who provide you with information related to an ALTERNATIVE treatment, they face the LOSS OF LICENSE, ostracism and professional smearing. At the end of the day you will find out that cancer treatment is just another dirty business on this planet. In the capitalistic regime, money talks, my friend, MONEY TALKS! 150- 154

"Women with breast cancer are likely to die faster with chemo than without it."- Alan Levin, M.D. UCSF "Chemotherapy is an incredibly lucrative business for doctors, hospitals, and pharmaceutical companies... The medical establishment wants everyone to follow the same exact protocol. They don’t want to see the chemotherapy industry go under, and that’s the number one obstacle to any progress in oncology." - Dr. Warner, M.D.15 "But today in the United States, and this shows you where fascism REALLY exists, ANY doctor in the United States who cures cancer using alternative methods will be destroyed. You cannot name me a doctor doing well with cancer using alternative therapies that is not under attack. And I KNOW these people; I've interviewed them." - Gary Null 16 "Your toxic concoctions (chemo) are actually the false hope you worry so much about." - William Kelley Eidem, the author of "The Doctor Who Cures Cancer" "Two to 4% of cancers respond to chemotherapy…(…)The bottom line is for a few kinds of cancer chemo is a life extending procedure – Hodgkin's disease, Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia, Testicular cancer, and Choriocarcinoma." - Ralph Moss, Ph.D., the author of "Questioning Chemotherapy"
(My chemotherapy is) "death in a bottle." - Hubert H. Humphrey.
You have to understand that as long as chemotherapy companies see profits in their production, there will never be any motivation to change it. And there is no motivation to change anything if the cancer market turns more than $70 billion annually, from which about $42 billion is spent on chemotherapy.74 Alternative medicine cannot compete with this financial firepower. If you believe that the American Cancer Society searches for a cure, you are wrong again. Their current net profit is $200 BILLION annually, what makes them the WEALTHIEST NONPROFIT institution on this planet. Most studies outside the United States show that you have no better chance for a cancer cure today than you had 30 years ago. Your tax feeds thousands of people for nothing! You must face the fact that MORE PEOPLE MAKE A LIVING OUT OF CANCER THAN REALLY DIE OF IT.
"We have a multi-billion dollar industry that is killing people, right and left, just for financial gain. Their idea of research is to see whether two doses of this poison is better than three doses of that poison." - Glenn A. Warner, M.D. "We’ve got a network of evil in this country that we can’t hide from any longer." - Dr. John Yiamouyiaanis "Establishment medicine, with little or no evidence to support their barbaric use of these highly toxic drugs, continues to make fortunes while their patients spent their last days vomiting, debilitated, baldheaded and without dignity." - Dr. Robert E. Willner M.D., Ph.D.
"Ovarian cancer responded three times better to Iscador than to standard chemotherapy involving Cytobal (W. Hassauer, et al., Onkologie, 1979). No wonder the American Medical Society condemned it." - Dr. Robert E.

"During World War Two, tons of mustard gas were released on the Bari harbor in Italy during an air raid. The gas decimated normal white blood cells in the body, leading pharmacologists to fantasize about using a similar chemical to kill cancers of white blood cells. Chemotherapy – chemical warfare on cancer cells – was inspired, literally, by war." Reference: A biography of Cancer 47 by Siddhartha Mukherjee (2011) 170

American Cancer approved (orthodox) chemical Society 2010 (cancer.org) treatment is based on the concept that every cell in the area of the tumor should be killed, in the hope that the cancer will be destroyed. For this reason, chemotherapy treatment consists of the administering of very powerful (POWERFUL!) poisons. Only those chemical compounds are used which are guaranteed to kill cells. Chemotherapy began in 1919, when nitrogen mustard was given to leukemia patients. As always, the hope was that the strong poison would kill the cancer before it killed the patient. Regardless of where the cancer is, the resultant poisoning affects the entire system. Dead blood cells cause blood poisoning while violent nausea, diarrhea, loss of appetite, and cramps occur in the stomach and intestines. The reproductive organs are affected, producing sterility or impotency. The brain is wracked with

pain. Eyesight and hearing are damaged. The poison is so bad, even the hair falls out! Yet it is well- known among immunologists that one of the best defenses the body has against cancer is a HEALTHY AND WELL- FUNCTIONING IMMUNOLOGICAL SYSTEM, which is centered in the white blood cells. "The importance of the immune system in the defense against neoplastic disease [cancer] seems established. The high incidence of cancer of various types in patients with immune deficiency diseases and in patients who have received immunosuppressive therapy, especially after kidney transplantation, supports the concept that rejection of an incipient malignancy is an important function of the immune system."— Annals of the New York Academy of Science, Vol. 230, op. cit., 45. Indeed, Dr. George Friou declared that the formation of new cancer cells is not unusual, but are normally overcome by the immune system, before they develop into a recognizable malignancy. But, in order to do that, the immune system must not be in a shattered state. (George J. Friou, M.D., "Relationship of Malignancy, Autoimmunity, and Immunological Disease," Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, March 18, 1974, 44- 45, 48).

Yet the function of chemotherapy drugs, by the design of the drug companies and the request of orthodox medicine—is to destroy the body’s immune system, in the hope that, by doing so, the cancer will die! ("Spontaneous Regression of Cancer: The Metabolic Triumph of the Host?" Annals of the New York Academy of Science, 130.) —But this will only result in the chemotherapy PRODUCING MORE CANCER than it cures! You will recall that, in 1919, nitrogen mustard gas was the first chemotherapy given to cancer patients. A little over 20 years later, it was found that workers making mustard gas during World War II had far higher rates of lung cancer (Encyclopedia Britannica, 15th ed., 764). Listen to this: All the currently accepted chemotherapy drugs were given, one at a time, to test animals which had no malignancies,—AND PRODUCED CANCERS in those previously healthy animals!

"According to recent ACS reports, the discovery of the anti- tumor properties of beta- carotene (nutrient "from which the body makes vitamin A") is one of the most important developments in cancer research of the past ten years, i.e., since the passage of the National Cancer Act. ...The NCI and the NIH...did not participate in the initial development or funding of the betacarotene studies!...The NCI has promoted...retinoic acid and retinoids, chemically related peripherally to vitamin A...The chemicals were known by the NCI to be dangerous to...animals even before the NCI tests with the retinoids were initiated; however, these chemicals (retinoids and acid) were inaccurately represented as being less toxic or more efficacious than (Vitamin A and betacarotene).....We have been applying to the NIH for grant support on (betacarotene) since 1974. However, the NCI had consistently rejected both (the) grant requests and the concept of using beta- carotene, until the collapse of the retinoic acid studies. ...We found that beta- carotene increased the effectiveness of tumor therapeutic agents, whereas retinoic acid only served to increase the toxicity of the chemotherapeutic agents. ...When novel studies were proposed, the NCI seemed determined to stamp them out.

has the integrity to speak out: "The American public is being sold a nasty bill of goods about cancer. While they’re being told about cancer cures, the cure rate has improved only about one percent. The grim cancer statistics are about as bad as ever. Today, the press releases coming out of the National Cancer Institute have all the honesty of the Pentagon’s."—Dr. James Watson, quoted by attorney George Kell, in testimony before the California Assembly Committee of Health, May 20, 1976. The handling of cancer statistics is a problem. Dr. Hardin Jones, professor of medical physics and physiology at the University of California at Berkeley, is a recognized authority on cancer demography (cancer statistics). In a speech at the 1969 conference of the ACS, he declared that there is usually a wide difference between the published statistics about cancer success rates and the actual results of practicing physicians who universally experience a low success rate. The variation is accomplished by tampering with the statistics (Hardin B. Jones, Ph.D., "Report on Cancer," paper delivered to the ACS 11th Annual Science Writers Conference, New Orleans, March 7, 1969).

"What is being left out here are the statistical tables that list dozens of alternative cancer treatment methods and their impressive success rates, also in MDAC are some unpleasant stats in the tables regarding orthodox treatment, such as: at the NCI a study was done on 35 patients getting chemotherapy; radiation and chemotherapy caused a 2900% increase in secondary cancers, another study of 200 child patients showed a 17,100% (!) increase in secondary cancers related to orthodox therapy."

cancers, plus a large number of conditions which may not have been cancer. Another technique is to list any of the controls who died as having died while not listing any of the patients under treatment who died as having died. In conclusion, Jones said this: "The apparent life expectancy of untreated cases of cancer after such adjustment in the table seems to be greater than that of the treated cases."—Ibid. The medical researchers, to whom this book and this chapter are written,—do you realize what that means? If you contract cancer, according Dr. Hardin Jones, an expert in cancer statistics, YOU WILL LIVE LONGER IF YOU JUST STAY AT HOME, make no changes, keep living the way you have been, and pay for no treatment! This is why "cancer screening" and "early detection of cancer" by the physicians is even more dangerous! The quicker they apply the cut, burn, and poison, the quicker you will die. Six years later, Dr. Jones must have retired, for then he really told it straight. Read this and burn it into your memory: "You see, it is not the cancer that kills the victim. It’s the breakdown of the defense mechanism that eventually brings death.

You wouldn't give poison to a healthy person. So why would you support doctors who give poison to people who are quite ill already? I, like so many millions before me started down the road of orthodox therapy. I knew, no option were available. I, like the average person believed everything my doctor told me. And I took 6000 rads of radiation which is the most you can take. Anymore, you run the risk of total paralysis, since the electron beam has to be focused to the spinal column. We’d all sit together waiting to go into the room with linear accelerator. When we where the only one in the room and everybody else was outside the room. But looking at the patients, that had already started to receive chemotherapy… Looking at them, the women had wigs... The complection of the men and women were like a piece of white paper… Most of them had already lost weight. It’s terrifying… It really is… Because not only are you worrying about dying, now you begin to worry about how it’s going to be to die. And so, when I started the chemotherapy, I’ll never forget what it was like the first time, the first moment, that the intravenous solution is shot into your veins. Because I took Cytoxan as the first drug and it works instantenously. The plunger is moved 1/16 of an inch of that great big sirenge and you TURN ON LIKE THIS!!! (aggressive muscle spasm) It was Cytoxan in my reaction it was sytoxin that was absolutely mind blowing. It was like if somebody hit me with a sludge hammer in the middle of my head and I got sick to my stomach. All at the same time. But I want make this very clear. If you really believe, that these things work and if the data supported that Cytoxan or Cisplatin or any of the chemotherapeutic drug all of which are psychotoxic, all of which are indiscriminant killers of cells, all of which are carcinogenic…Which is philosophically extrodinary.

Radiation Therapy in Cancer Treatment

Recommended Study Materials: Nuclear Power is Not the Answer by Helen Caldicott (2006), Fukushima Daiichi: The Truth and the Future by Fairewinds En ergy, Radiation Threats and Your Safety: A Guide to Preparation and Response for Professionals and Community by Armin Ansari (2009). Radiation Therapy is a treatment of disease by the use of radiation or radioactive substances that have a toxic effect.
About a hundred years ago (19151935), when radiation was first discovered, people didn’t know that it was so dangerous. What truly mattered was that the U.S. government representatives together with the ROCKEFELLERS and other world bankers realized that radiation and radioactive particles could be very PROFITABLE. And so these corporations began making money out of this HIGHLY TOXIC substances, selling them to the completely brain-washed and delusional public. The particle of choice was RADIUM. This substance was commonly put into BATH SALTS, WATERS, MUDS, or sold in LOW-GRADE PREPARATIONS. Many brands of RADIOACTIVE TOOTHPASTE were laced with radium, which was claimed to make teeth shine whiter.

(~ 1920 AD) Henri Coutard About: The Father of Radiation Therapy Literature: Cancer Conspiracy: Betrayal, Collusion and the Suppression of Alternative Cancer Treatments by Barry Lynes (2002), The Crime and Punishment of I. G. Farben by Joseph Borkin. Emil Herman Grubbe (1 January 1875 — 26 March 1960) was probably the first American to use x- rays in the treatment of cancer.
At the International Congress of Oncology in Paris in 1922, Henri Coutard, a French radiologist working with Institut Curie, presented a piece of evidence that laryngeal cancer could be treated without disastrous side-effects. Coutard was inspired by observations of Claudius Regaud who was making X-ray experiments on rabbits, finding out that at trace amounts of radiation, specific cells are killed, making the rabbits sterile, but still living. By 1934, Coutard brought this concept a step forward and developed a process that remains the basis for the current radiation therapy. 58
Radiation and safety Radiation is a high radiation beam aimed at the patient’s body with the purpose to burn the living tissue. The problem with ionizing radiation is that it causes MORE CANCER. If you had cold, would it make you feel better to inhale more bacteria from a compressed air tank to cure your infection? Certainly not… Radiation treatment is a double-edged sword. Always was and always will be. I totally agree with the concept that radiation treatments tear cancerous cells apart. They do but, on the other hand, more free radicals travel into your body, which in turn FURTHER DEPRESSES an already WEAKENED immune system. The end result is the same type of damage, but on a bigger scale because radiation depresses all the systems in the body. Technically speaking, I consider radiation treatment nothing more than a legalized bullet shot into your body. Radiation CAUSES cancer. More radiation in one’s body, MORE CANCER! Then why are we using this method of treatment if the treatment feeds the disease?

In all, they studied 33 of these patients, all of whom died within 30 days of receiving radiation therapy." - NaturalNews.com 19 "A recent study with patients with the most common form of lung cancer found that postoperative radiation therapy, which is routinely given, actually raises the relative risk of death by 21 percent, with its most detrimental effects on those in the early stages of illness. Nevertheless, radiation is used on about half of cancer patients." - When Healing Becomes a Crime, 1st Edition 20
"Consequently, I wouldn't have chemotherapy and radiation because I'm not interested in therapies that cripple the immune system, and, in my opinion, virtually ensure failure for the majority of cancer patients." - Dr Julian Whitaker, M.D. 21 "Chemical and Pharmaceutical companies now run the American Medica Association and FDA.

What the FDA is doing and what the public thinks it's doing are as different as night and day." - Dr. Herbert Ley, former Commissioner of the FDA 22
Please allow me to give you an example. An exposure to: - 400 mSv causes radiation poisoning symptoms if received in a short period of time (6 minutes at current levels); - 2,000 mSv causes severe radiation poisoning – in some cases fatal poisoning; - 4,000 mSv usually results in fatal radiation poisoning, although survival is possible with prompt treatment; - 6,000 mSv usually kills you; - 8,000 mSv is a fatal dose; - 10,000 mSv is a fatal dose; - 20,000 mSv is a highly targeted dose for cancer. Now, let’s look at some other numbers. At present, the standard cancer treatment is routinely administered to cancer patients with a dose of: - 50,000 mSv as a way to "prevent" rectal cancer; - 60,000 mSv as a way to "prevent" breast cancer; - 60,000 mSv as a way to "prevent" the cancer of head; - 70,000 mSv as a way to "prevent" lung cancer; - 80,000 mSv (- 80 Gy) is used as a way to "prevent" prostate cancer. 52 What do you think about it...?
"We have a multi-billion dollar industry that is killing people, right and left, just for financial gain. Their idea of research is to see whether two doses of this poison is better than three doses of that poison." - Glen Warner, M.D., oncologist. "It amazes me how much of what passes for knowledge in cancer therapy turns out to be incomplete, inadequate, and anecdotal." - Ralph Moss, Ph.D. 23
"My studies have proved conclusively that untreated cancer victims live up to four times longer than treated individuals. If one has cancer and opts to do nothing at all, he will live longer and feel better than if he undergoes radiation, chemotherapy or surgery, other than when used in immediate lifethreatening situations." - Prof. Jones, N.Y. Academy of Medical Sciences 24 "Finding a cure for cancer is absolutely contraindicated by the profits of the cancer industry’s chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery cash trough." - Dr. Diamond, M.D. "We have a multi-billion dollar industry that is killing people, right and left, just for financial gain.

We are dealing with a political issue." - Samuel Epstein, M.D. 25

THE BOTTOM LINE: At this stage let me be crystal clear once and for all: ionizing radiation FEEDS ADISEASE. It is far away from what we call building strong health! There is NO difference between radiation coming from a fission process, nuclear fallout, uranium mining or a medical equipment. ANY manmade radiation causes DAMAGE to every living being, period. 55 "There is no safe threshold"
61
"The answer is this: ionizing radiation is not like a poison out of a bottle where you can dilute it and dilute it. The lowest dose of ionizing radiation is one nuclear track through one cell. You can't have a fraction of a dose of that sort. Either a track goes through the nucleus and affects it, or it doesn't. So I said, "What evidence do we have concerning one, or two or three or four or six or 10 tracks?" And I came up with nine studies of cancer being produced where we're dealing with up to maybe eight or 10 tracks per cell. Four involved breast cancer. With those studies, as far as I'm concerned, it's not a question of "We don't know." The DOE has never refuted this evidence. They just ignore it because it's inconvenient. We can now say, there cannot be a safe dose of radiation. There is no safe threshold. If this truth is known, then any permitted radiation is a permit to commit murder." - Dr. John Gofman M.D. on health effects of radiation:26, 27
Dangers of ionizing radiation The health effect of radiation poisoning will depend upon the amount of radiation dose you receive, the time over which it is absorbed by your body, and the vulnerability of the tissue which was exposed to radiation. When talking about cellural vulnerability, do you know who is the most susceptible to radiation? Sadly, the highly susceptible are the young developing children. Fetuses in the womb are also particularly sensitive, together with bone marrow cells. Why so? Because they have the FASTEST GROWING tissue. And it is known that radiation as much as TRIPLES cancer causing effects during the growth phase. Next on the line are the ovaries and testies, which are also super-sensitive to ionizing radiation. They can be easily damaged, even with a very small intensity of radiation. Let’s be honest, you don’t want to imagine side-effects of radiation therapy.
62
The Linear No-Threshold Model "Based on the known risk of cancer induction at high doses, the LNT model linearly extrapolates risks at low doses and assumes there is no threshold for cancer induction. Because we cannot prove there is no risk at very low doses, we conservatively assume that any amount of radiation, no matter how small, poses a cancer risk." - Princeton University, RadiationInduced Cancer Risks 29
"The committee concludes that the preponderance of information indicates that there will be some risk, even at low doses". - The National Academy of Sciences (NAS) Biological Effects of Ionizing Radiation (BEIR) report, NAS Executive Summary 30 "I was criticized and denounced by the Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) for one thing. I said that radiation was more harmful than was previously thought. (...) In 1969 — after they had given me $3 million a year for seven years to take time off from my teaching and set up a biomedical division at Livermore. One week after I gave the talk! If you say something they don't want to hear, they make a pariah out of you. (...) What I'm proposing is that if the Department of Energy spends $100 million on health-related activities — and they have their fingers in every university department of statistics and radiology — $10 million should go to a grass roots organization of scientists to make sure that the studies being carried out are honest." - Interview with John Gofman, Challenging The Nuclear Establishment 28

If radiation causes harm, then what is this radiation good for? The cancer industry came up with this type of treatment because it turns out to be the BEST SOURCE OF REPEATED BUSINESS. You make a sick person even more sick until he dies. Heck, let’s face it! The side-effect of radiation therapy are secondary tumors, which is MORE CANCER.

"Chemotherapy and radiotherapy will make the ancient method of drilling holes in a patient's head to permit the escape of demons look relatively advanced. Toxic chemotherapy is a hoax. The doctors who use it are guilty of pre-meditated murder, and the use of cobalt and other methods of cancer treatment popular today effectively closes the door on cure." - Krebs, Jr., Ernst T.31 "That the NCI and ACS have embarked on unethical trials with two hormonal drugs, tamoxifen and Evista, in ill-conceived attempts to prevent breast cancer in healthy women while suppressing evidence that these drugs are known to cause liver and ovarian cancer, respectively, and in spite of the shortterm lethal complications of tamoxifen. The establishment also proposes further chemoprevention trials this fall on tamoxifen, and also Evista, in spite of two published longterm European studies on the ineffectiveness of tamoxifen. This represents medical malpractice verging on the criminal." - Dr. Epstein "That the cancer establishment has also failed to provide the public, particularly African American and underprivileged ethnic groups with their disproportionately higher cancer incidence rates, with information on avoidable carcinogenic exposures, thus depriving them of their right-toknow and effectively preventing them from taking action to protect themselves – a flagrant denial of environmental justice. " - Dr. Epstein
Radiation therapy and cancer (The following information is excerpted from: Alternative Cancer Remedies – Facts for Historians and Medical Researchers by Vance Ferrell, Pilgrims Books, 1998 USA) 1
X-rays were first aimed at cancerous tumors in 1899. The first shipment of radium to the United States (1903) was given to the New York Academy of Medicine for the treatment of cancer. More recently, cobalt machines and proton accelerators were developed. But the principle underlying them all is the same as for surgery: While surgery CUTS the tumor away, the radiation BURNS it away. It is, in effect, a radioactive knife, cutting into the tumor while filling nearby tissue with radioactivity. In addition to the problem of METASTASIZING, following the BURNING PROCESS, there are other problems with radiation treatments. One problem is that excessive exposure to radioactivity induces CANCER! The part of the body where the radiation treatment focused may have been burned out, but the surrounding tissue has tended to have cancer induced into it!

Picture: "Many early advocates of Radiation Therapy relied on the placement of radioactive sources in close proximity or even within the tumor, a technique known as brachytherapy." – UC San Diego Moores Cancer Center 34 "I had a brain cancer specialist sit in my living room and tell me that he would never take radiation if he had a brain tumor. And I asked him, 'but, do you send people for radiation?' and he said, of course. 'I'd be drummed out of the hospital if I didn't." - Ralph Moss 23
"My clinical experience is that in America, when people die from cancer, they are NOT actually dying from cancer, but instead, they are dying from the medical TREATMENT itself. They are dying from the chemotherapy, radiation and surgery. AGAIN: They are NOT dying from the cancer—they are being killed by the medical doctors and their medical treatment!" - Richard Shulze, N.D., M.H. 12
radioactive materials encountered in industry and in the general environment cause a variety of cancers. The pioneer workers with radium and X- rays developed cancers of the skin. Even now, radiologists and others exposed to high total doses of ionizing radiation are more likely to develop leukemia than persons not so exposed. Uranium miners have been found to have a higher than normal incidence of lung cancer."— Encyclopedia Britannica, 15th edition, 764. Another problem is the fact that radiation therapy causes normal cells to be more easily damaged than cancer cells. Because tumors contain more non- cancer cells, than cancer cells, the tumor will reduce in size—because the noncancer cells were burned. Oddly enough, the cancer cells tend to be less harmed by the radiation— and remain in the now smaller tumor! "Radiation and/or radiometic poisons will reduce palpable, gross or measurable tumefactions. Often this reduction may amount to seventy- five per cent or more of the mass of the growth. "For example, a benign uterine myoma will usually melt away under radiation like snow in the sun. If there be neoplastic cells in such a tumor, these will remain. The size of the tumor may thus be decreased by ninety percent while the relative concentration of Reference: Alternative Cancer Remedies – Facts for Historians and Medical Researchers by Vance Ferrell, Pilgrims Books, 1998 USA 1

"In those who’ve had pelvic radiation, 90 per cent of patients report a permanent change in bowel habits afterwards, and 30 per cent have problems with the bladder, often causing urine to leak. ....Symptoms can appear many years after treatment, because in some people the radiotherapy continues to damage tissue long after it has finished.... ‘After a few months, I told the hospital I was having problems with diarrhoea, and was told it would improve. It did, slightly, but I was still going to the loo about 12 times a day. ...He says one in ten patients will develop chronic pain, with one in five suffering faecal incontinence. ‘Some will have to go to the loo up to 30 times a day, and it carries on getting worse, affecting their quality of life, their sex life, everything.’ Up to one- third of patients will have long- term problems with urination.....‘The chemotherapy people said it was the radiotherapy to blame, and the radiotherapy people told me it was the chemotherapy." - [2013 Feb] Cancer cure that can leave you a prisoner in your home 35 "The machinery looks good, the technology seems nice, the stainless steel is shiny, everything smells like isopropyl alchohol; I mean they are the greatest salesmen in the world. We're going to go look back at this century and we're going to laugh eventually, but we'll cry first. This is one of the most barbaric periods. It's going to be called the Dark Ages of Medicine." - Dr Schulze 12
definitively neoplastic cells is thereby increased by ninety per cent. "As all experienced clinicians know—or at least should know—after radiation or chemotherapy have reduced the gross tumefaction of the lesions, the patient’s general well- being does not substantially improve. To the contrary, there is often an explosive or fulminating increase in the biological malignancy of his lesion. This is marked by the appearance of diffuse metastasis and a rapid deterioration in general vitality followed shortly by death." — John A. Richardson, M.D., Letter to interested Physicians, November 1972. Beware of all types of X- rays, much less the far more powerful cancer radiation treatments! In 1971 a Dr. Robert Gibson, at the University of Buffalo, found that fewer than a dozen routine medical X- rays to the same parts of the body increase the risk of leukemia by at least 60% (R.W. Gibson, M.D., National Inquirer, December 5, 1971, 11). "For each women who is possibly cured by early detection, there are four or five new cancers produced by these X- rays . .

"Just in case you're not following all this, what we're seeing here is that 10,000 mSv is a fatal dose. The 20,000 mSv line was removed from the chart between versions 1.0 and 1.35. Meanwhile, the cancer industry is routinely using 60,000 mSv focused on the head and neck as a way to "prevent" cancer! Are you starting to see how huge this cancer radiotherapy scam really is? Think about it: If exposure to just 100 mSv can actually cause cancer, then how can exposure to 60,000 mSv somehow "cure" it? Not surprisingly, the cancer industry's lies fall apart when you look at the science. No wonder the industry has to work so hard to keep people misinformed. If cancer patients knew they were receiving literally 60,000% higher radiation doses (that's 60,000 mSv versus 100 mSv) than the level necessary to significantly increase the risk of cancer, they probably wouldn't sign up for more "treatments."" - [2011 April] Radiation exposure chart admits cancer radiotherapy delivers fatal dose to patients 35 "I look upon cancer in the same way that I look upon heart disease, arthritis, high blood pressure, or even obesity, for that matter, in that by dramatically strengthening the body's immune system through diet, nutritional supplements, and exercise, the body can rid itself of the cancer, just as it does in other degenerative diseases. Consequently, I wouldn't have chemotherapy and radiation because I'm not interested in therapies that cripple the immune system, and, in my opinion, virtually ensure failure for the majority of cancer patients." - Dr Julian Whitaker, M.D.
cancer in ten to fifteen years’ time."—Erwin Bross, M.D., National Inquirer, November 30, 1976, 49. That article was written because Dr. Bross, director of biostatistics at the Roswell Park Memorial Institute of Cancer Research, called for an immediate stoppage to chest X- rays. He charged that the ACS and NCI had ignored the objections of scientists,—so they could obtain government grants of $54 million to carry out the screening. Yet cancer radiation treatments are far worse! X- rays cause cancer; they do not cure it. Radiation therapy helps no one. The following statement is from the report of the National Surgical Adjuvant Breast Project: "From the data available it would seem that the use of post- operative irradiation has provided no discernible advantage to patients so treated in terms of increasing the proportion who were free of disease for as long as five years."—B. Fisher, et., al., "Postoperative Radiotherapy and the Treatment of Breast Cancer; Results of the NSABP Clinical Trials, Annals of Surgery, October 1970.

Doll, Nature, Vol. 265, 1977, page 589. "In 1976, the controversy over radiation and mammography reached a saturation point. At that time mammographic technology delivered five to 10 rads (radiation- absorbed doses) per screening, as compared to 1 rad in current screening methods. In women between the ages of 35 and 50, each rad of exposure increased the risk of breast cancer by one percent, according to Dr. Frank Rauscher, then- director of the NCI. ...The NCI released evidence that, among women under 35, mammography could cause 75 cases of breast cancer for every 15 it identifies." - Dr.Sundardas "When radioactive compounds enter the human body, the effects are different from those resulting from exposure to an external radiation source. Especially in the case of alpha radiation, which normally does notpenetrate the skin, the exposure can be much more damaging after ingestion orinhalation." - Wikipedia.org, Acute radiation syndrome 36
has been achieved by the addition of irraditation."— Phillip Rubin, "The Controversial Status of Radiation Therapy in Lung Cancer," Speech delivered to the Sixth National Cancer Conference, sponsored by the ACS and the NCI, Denver, Colorado, September 1820, 1968. At the same conference Dr. Vera Peters, a Toronto radiologist, said this: "There has been no true improvement in the successful treatment of the disease over the past thirty years."—Vera Peters, "Radiation Therapy in the Management of Breast Cancer," op., cit. In the chapter on "Mutations" in his book, Origin of Life (Volume Two of the three- book Evolution Disproved Series), the present author wrote an article, entitled "Evolutionists’ Paradise" (pp. 424- 427). It recounts the stories of the Chernobyl meltdown (April 27, 1990) and the Hiroshima nuclear blast (August 6, 1945). In both instances, large amounts of radiation were released. Predictably, no one was thereby cured of cancer! Instead, the radiation produced large numbers of mutations (all of which produced terrible results) and various diseases, including cancer. Mutations cannot cause the beneficial changes evolutionary theory requires, and radiation cannot cure cancer.

"The fact that breast irradiation increases the risk of heart disease is not a new finding. Starting in the late 1960s, it became known that, after receiving adjuvant radiation to prevent breast cancer recurrence, more women than expected were dying of heart disease, sometimes decades after their initial surgery. It took brilliant medical detective work to prove that this apparently successful use of radiation therapy was also the cause of many cardiac deaths (Fajardo 2001). So many women were dying of the longterm adverse effects, in fact, that it more or less counterbalanced any survival benefit from the treatment itself. Radiation is a classic two- edged sword. It does substantially reduce the risk of recurrences of breast cancer in the irradiated field. But this comes at the price of an increased risk of damage to the heart, especially when the internal mammary lymph node chains are irradiated or when the patient is a smoker. Patients and their physicians need to carefully weigh benefits and risks before agreeing to this or any other potentially toxic treatment." - [2007] Big Blow to Radiation Therapy for Breast Cancer by Ralph W. Moss, PhD "It is important to recognize that the potassium content of the body is under strict homeostatic control and is not influenced by variations in environmental levels. For this reason, the dose from 40K in the body is constant." - Eisenbud, Merril; Gesell, Thomas F. (1997) 37
"There is no safe threshold" by (The following information was excerpted from: Gofman on the health effects of radiation by John William Gofman (professor of Medical Physics at UC Berkeley) University of California San Francisco, 1994) 38
John William Gofman is professor emeritus of Medical Physics at UC Berkeley, and lecturer for the Department of Medicine, UCSF. While getting As PhD in physics at Berkeley in the 1940s, Gofman proved the slow and fast neutron fissionability of uranium- 233. At the request of J. Robert Oppenheimer, Gofman helped produce plutonium (not even a quarter- milligram existed at the time) for the Manhattan Project. He got his MD from UCSF in 1946 (winning the Gold- Headed Cane Award, presented to the senior who most fully personifies a "true physician") and began his research on coronary heart disease. In 1963 the Atomic Energy Commission asked him to establish a Biomedical Research Division at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory to evaluate the health effects of all types of nuclear radiation. By 1969, however, the AEC and the "radiation community" were downplaying his warnings about the risks of radiation . Gofman returned to full- time teaching at Berkeley, switching to emeritus status in 1973 (...). The worst- case scenario is this. Ever since its inception, the Atomic Energy Commission — then called ERDA, then called DOE — has had one thing in mind: "Our program is sacrosanct." And they recognize, as I've recognized, that their entire program will live or die based upon one thing. If the public should come to learn the truth about ionizing radiation, nuclear energy and the atomic energy program of DOE is going to be dead. Because the people of this country — and other countries — are not going to tolerate what it implies. The key thing — it's everything in the DOE program — is: "We must prove that low doses of radiation are not harmful." They have been conducting a Josef Goebels propaganda war, saying there's a safe dose when there has never been any valid evidence for a safe dose of radiation. Yet the DOE and others continue to talk

about their "zero- risk model." After Chernobyl, I estimated that there were going to be 475,000 fatal cancers throughout Europe — with another 475,000 cancers that are not fatal. That estimate was based on the dose released on the various countries of fallout from Cesium- 137. The DOE put out a report in 1987 and I don't think it's any credit to the University of California that part of this report was done in the Livermore Lab, where I once worked, and part in Davis — saying "our zero- risk model says that at these low doses, nothing will happen, because low doses are safe." How would a safe level of radiation come about? It could come about in theory if the biological repair mechanisms — which exist and which will repair DNA and chromosomes — work perfectly. Then a low dose of radiation might be totally repaired. The problem, though, is that the repair mechanisms don't work perfectly. There are those lesions in DNA and chromosomes that are unrepairable. There are those where the repair mechanisms don't get to the site and so they go unrepaired. And there are those lesions where the repair mechanisms simply cause misrepair. We can say that between 50 and 90 percent of the damage done by ionizing radiation is repaired perfectly. What we are then seeing is harm done by the residual 10 or 40 or 50 percent that is not repaired perfectly. The evidence that the repair mechanism is not perfect is very solid today. What we wanted to have was evidence that as you go down to very low doses — a rad, or a tenth of a rad — is that going to produce cancer? Determining the answer by standard epidemiological studies would take millions of people, and we don't have that. So it creates a field day for the DOE to say, "Well, we don't know." But I looked very carefully in 1986 for any studies that could shed light on that all- important question. And I presented that evidence at the American Chemical Society meeting in Anaheim.The lowest dose of ionizing radiation is one nuclear track through one cell. You can't have a fraction of a dose of that sort. Either a track goes through the nucleus and affects it, or it doesn't.

Radiation is a sort of invisible energy that penetrates your body and harms your health. Radiation, particularly radioactive particles also know as radionuclides, represents an invisible danger to the environment and to your health. The creepy part about radiation is that we cannot see nor sense this energy. The same goes for another thousand cancer causing chemicals. We just cannot see, feel nor smell these particles. But still the threat is near, way closer than you think. Simplified, radiation can be described as small particles of energy. When they hit your tissue, they emmit power strong enough to cause damage to your cells. In other words, radiation HARMS your body. There are 2 conditions associated with radiation poisoning. The FIRST is external irradiation, known 72
"You can't eat fish. It's 6,000 parts DDT per million all over the world, not counting radiation." - Dick Dale "Ionizing radiation is a known cause of cancer and other adverse effects. It is one of the most extensively studied human carcinogens" - NAS, 1990 40, 41, 42
"Evidence is accumulating that most of the degenerative diseases that afflict humanity have their origin in deleterious free radical reactions. These diseases include atherosclerosis, cancer, inflammatory joint disease, asthma, diabetes, senile dementia and degenerative eye disease." - Centre for Environmental and Health Science Pty Ltd, Sydney, NSW 40 "Dr. Samuel Epstein also claims that pregnant women exposed to radiation could endanger their fetus. He advises against mammography during pregnancy because "the future risks of leukemia to your unborn child, not to mention birth defects, are just not worth it." - Mammograms Cause, Breast Cancer, Rense.com 42 "NCI now actually anticipates further increases, and not decreases, in cancer mortality rates, from 171/100,000 in 1984 to 175/100,000 by the year 2000!" - Samuel Epstein 43 "Exposure to radiation, whether from the sun or from medical x-rays, activates the formation of Free Radicals, as does exposure to environmental pollutants such as tobacco smoke and automobile exhaust. Diet also can contribute to the formation of Free Radicals." - Phyllis A. Balch, CNC, Prescription for Nutritional Healing 44
as ‘ACUTE RADIATION SICKENSS’. This is the extreme scenario during which radiation bursts your body apart. If you have a very serious hold of exposure, you don’t feel anything until one hour or so afterwards when you start feeling nauseaous, you may vomit and you may think you have a food poisoning. And sometimes you may feel better in between, but in reality, after 2 weeks you start to bleed, have diarrhea and fever. Within weeks you die. The SECOND problem is INGESTION and assimilation of radioactive particles inside of your body. This can alter the genes, mutate them, which might be reflected in future generations if you are planning to have kids. Radiation may cause malformation, chronic diseases and other dysfunctions in the present as well as future generations. Apart from radiation, there are many thousands of environmental cancer causing substances that damage your health. Radiation is a free ticket to HELL. NEVER UNDERESTIMATE the dangers of radioactive particles, together with other thousand of disease causing chemicals that threaten your health. Since the world is being badly contaminated, the threat is REAL!

"The surgeons. They controlled medicine, and they regarded the X-ray as a threat to surgery. At the time surgery was the only approved method of treating cancer.

I have had 7 fractures in all. The hospital breast clinic gave me scans, X-rays and tests and said I had osteopenia in that area, which is not quite osteoporosis. They said it is probably from the radium treatment I had. They would not answer anymore of my questions except to say that 'the machines were different in those days'. I am in pain everyday. Everything I do is painful. I am afraid to use my arm, but of course I have to. " – [2008 Nov] Why won't our doctors face up to the dangers of radiotherapy?
External Irradiation In a nutshell: External irradiation occurs when all or part of the body is exposed to penetrating radiation from an external source. Recommended Study Materials: A Slow Death: 83 Days of Radiation Sickness by NHK TV Crew (2008).
Acute radiation syndrome, acute radiation sickness or radiation toxicity are terms that are used in the case of an acute radiation exposure. Basically, this diagnosis tells that the patient got badly burned by radiation and his/her life is in a deep trouble. With acute radiation sickness you can predict a series of upcoming health effects which occur within hours, days, weeks and if (un)lucky – even months, depending on the level of exposure. In general, if your body receives a high dose of ionizing radiation, there is no cure for it at all. Radiation simply turns off ‘your lights’ and you bite the dust, period. All that doctors can do in this situation is to make your last moments as comfortable as possible. In case of a bit lower dose, you may live for a bit longer, but for the price of experiencing terrifying side effects which are even worse than the death itself. Modern medicine divides the acute radiation sickness into three categories, depending on the radiation dose the body receives. 74
"Radiation damages the cells via both direct and indirect damage to the DNA itself. This occurs via the production of large quantities of free radicals which can damage many areas of the cell, especially the DNA. When these radioactive particles pass through the cellular fluids, they produce superoxide and hydroxyl radicals: the latter being most destructive. Radioactive particles in cells overwhelm the protective actions of various DNA repair enzymes due to the sheer volume of free radical production. Another reason that adding digestive enzymes to the diet can once again prove to be life saving is because the more enzymes you have, the greater cellular reparations will be." - Radiological protection Natural supplements prevent radiation sickness, Wednesday by Richard Stossel 46

The cerebrovascular (brain) syndrome Exposure: >30Gy Mortality without care: 100% Mortality with care: 100% Time to death:1–2 days Symptoms: massive neurological damage
Cerebrovascular syndrome is a definite knockout, the worst case scenario in terms of radiation poisoning. This is when you get hit by a total dose exceeding 20 to 30 Gy. This level of energy is strong enough to get into your body and tear the cerebrovascular system into bits and pieces. Since the medical field had the opportunity to observe individuals dying from severe radiation exposures after the attacks on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the doctors found out that the syndrome progresses through 3 phases before ionizing radiation kills a man. The symptoms begin with vomiting, nausea, drowsiness, listlessness, confusion, apathy. Later, one gets either seizures, or convulsions and tremors, leading to coma, after which death follows within hours. This syndrome does always end with death. The doctors only provide you with drugs relieving pain and anxiety. They give you oxygen to make the death as comfortable as possible. The patient can’t be diagnosed with any disease, they just simply die. 165 75
"Free radicals are molecules with incomplete electron shells which make them more chemically reactive than those without incomplete electron shells. In humans the most common form of free radicals is oxygen. When an oxygen molecule (O2) becomes electrically charged or "radicalized" it tries to steal electrons from other molecules, causing damage to the DNA and other molecules. Over time, such damage may become irreversible and leads to disease, including cancer." - The National Cancer Institute 53 "This type of radiation is called ionizing radiation. Even if only one cell is exposed to radiation, the radiation can destroy, damage, or alter the makeup of that cell. The alteration of cell structure by radioactive particles can lead to the development of cancer. If a cell's DNA is damaged, this can cause genetic mutations that can be passed down to offspring." - Phyllis A. Balch, CNC, Prescription for Nutritional Healing 51 "When radioactive compounds enter the human body, the effects are different from those resulting from exposure to an external radiation source. Especially in the case of alpha radiation, which normally does not penetrate the skin, the exposure can be much more damaging after ingestion or inhalation." - Wikipedia.org, Acute radiation syndrome 52
The gastrointestinal syndrome Exposure: 6-30Gy Mortality without care: 95-100%, Mortality with care: 50-100%, Time to death: 2 days-4 weeks, Symptoms: stripping the intestinal lining, vomiting, diarrhea, starvation, infection, loss of blood coagulation, vulnerability to infection due to a dicreased amount of white blood cells 165, 166
The gastrointestinal syndrome is a state between death and living. We are talking about dying a slow death. Suffering this syndrome, you receive a dose which is low to cause a quick death, yet strong enough to damage badly major parts of your body, which causes death. You still die, but in a HORRIBLE WAY experiencing hell on Earth. The course of this syndrome is slower, which means more painful than the cerebrovascular syndrome. The effect of radiation in the range of 10-20 Sv usually hits the digestive tract, hence the name. 76
Radiation + High Doses = Death more dose = quicker death less dose = slower death radiation = death "On December 30, 1958 an accident occurred in the Los Alamos plutoniumprocessing facility. Cecil Kelley, an experienced chemical operator was working with a large mixing tank. The solution in tank was supposed to be "lean", typically less than 0.1 grams of plutonium per liter. However, the concentration on that day was actually 200 times higher. When Kelley switched on the stirrer, the liquid in the tank formed a vortex and the plutonium containing layer went critical releasing a huge burst of neutrons and gamma radiation in a pulse that lasted a mere 200 microseconds. Kelley, who had been standing on a foot ladder peering into the tank through a viewing window, fell or was knocked to the floor. Two other operators on duty saw a bright flash and heard a dull thud."
The intestines become damaged; the radiation strips their lining which eventually leads to death within 3 months. During these 3 months you will be vomiting badly. Vomiting until you starve; you get severe diarrhea and, eventually, you suffer infections. The volume of blood plasma becomes diminished and a vascular collapse results in death within 3-10 days. In case of a lower dose, the gastrointestinal syndrome causes the intestines to deteriorate, which makes the bacteria inside of them invade the rest of your body, resulting in severe infections and eventually death. There is nothing medicine can really do to help, except from keeping the patient in a sterile environment, giving them sedatives, pain killers, infusions, antibiotics and everything else to make the death, again, as comfortable as possible... 165, 166
77
Quickly, they rushed to help and found Kelley incoherent and saying only, "I’m burning up! I’m burning up!". He was rushed to the hospital, semiconscious, retching, vomiting, and hyperventilating. At the hospital, Kelly’s bodily excretions were sufficiently radioactive to give a positive reading on a detector. Two hours after the accident, Kelley’s condition improved as he regained coherence. However, it was soon clear that Kelley would not survive long. Tests showed his bone marrow was destroyed, and the pain in his abdomen became difficult to control despite medication. Kelley died 35 hours after the accident." - 10 Famous Incidences of Death by Radiation, http://listverse.com 56 "Louis Slotin was a Canadian physicist and chemist who took part in the Manhattan Project that created the first atomic bombs. He participated in criticality testing of plutonium cores, often referred to as "tickling the dragon’s tail". On May 21, 1946 Slotin and seven other colleagues performed an experiment that involved the creation of one of the first steps of a fission reaction by placing two halfspheres of beryllium around a plutonium core. Slotin was stabilizing the upper beryllium sphere with his left hand using the blade of a screwdriver to maintain the separation between the two half-spheres in violation of the experimental protocol. At 3:20pm the screwdriver slipped causing the upper beryllium sphere to fall creating a prompt critical reaction and a burst of radiation..." - 10 Famous Incidences of Death by Radiation 56
Japan’s worst nuclear radiation accident took place at a uranium reprocessing facility in Tokaimura, northeast of Tokyo, on September 30, 1999. The direct cause of the criticality accident was workers putting uranyl nitrate solution containing about 16.6 kg of uranium, exceeding the critical mass, into a precipitation tank. The tank was not designed to dissolve this type of solution and was not configured to prevent eventual criticality. Three workers were exposed to lethal radiation doses. One of these workers, Hiroshi Couchi, was transferred to the University of Tokyo Hospital and three days after the accident he could talk and only his right hand was a little swollen with redness. However, his condition gradually weakened as the radioactivity broke down the chromosomes in his cells. The doctors were at a loss as to what to do. There were few precedents and proven medical treatments for victims of radiation poisoning. A local television crew followed the story for 83 days until Hiroshi died. Their observations are chronicled in the book, "Reference: A Slow Death: 83 Days of Radiation Sickness" 167

"...Scientists in the room observed a blue glow around the spheres and felt a heat wave. Slotin instinctively jerked his left hand upward, lifting the upper beryllium hemisphere and dropping it to the floor, ending the reaction.However, Slotin had already been exposed to a lethal dose of radiation, equivalent to the amount that he would have received had he been 1500m away from an atomic bomb detonation. He was rushed to the hospital immediately, but the damage was irreversible and he died nine days later on May 30, 1946. The core he dropped was the very same core dropped by Daghnian the year before – causing it to be named the Demon Core." - 10 Famous Incidences of Death by Radiation 56 "Eben McBurney Byers was a wealthy American socialite, athlete, and industrialist.

The hematopoietic syndrome Exposure: 2–6Gy, Mortality without care: 5–100%, Mortality with care: 5–50%, Time to death: 4–6 weeks, Symptoms: vomiting, loss of appetite, general discomfort, infections, anemia, hemorrhage 165, 166
The acute dose in the range of 2-6 Sv affects the bone marrow, lymph nodes, spleen and other vital organs. Patients get antibiotics and blood transfusions as soon as the syndrome kicks in. The symptoms are followed by a general discomfort, nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, lethargy, apathy and other. These symptoms begin within 2-12 hours after the initial exposure. During these symptoms the radiation causes damage to the organs, especially the spleen, bone marrow, and lymph nodes, which gradually begin to waste away. This leads to a rapid loss of platelets, white and red blood cells. There is a high risk of infections, anemia and hemorrhage, all of which leads to an instant death. This syndrome is treated with blood transfusion and building up of the immune system using various immune stimulating drugs, otherwise the condition becomes fatal within 1-2 months after the irradiation.

"Harry K. Daghlian, Jr. was an Armenian-American physicist with the Manhattan Project. On August 21, 1945 he was conducting an experiment attempting to build a neutron reflector by manually stacking a series of tungsten carbide bricks around a plutonium core. As he was moving the final block over the assembly, neutron counters alerted Daghlian to the fact that the addition of this brick would render the system supercritical. As he withdrew his hand, he accidentally dropped the brick onto the center of the assembly. The addition of this last brick caused the reaction to go immediately supercritical. Daghlian panicked immediately after dropping the brick and attempted to knock off the brick without success. He was forced to partially disassemble the tungsten carbide pile to halt the reaction causing him to receive a lethal dose of neutron radiation. He died 25 days later. Daghlian was violating safety regulations by working on the assembly late at night and alone in the laboratory." - 10 Famous Incidences of Death by Radiation, http://listverse.com 56

Internal Contamination Once a nuclear accident happens, EXTERNAL IRRADIATION is always used by the mainstream media to downplay the REAL dangers of INTERNAL CONTAMINATION. At the end of the day it is not the irradiation that causes cancer in first place. Ultimately, it is what you breath and swallow that brings you into trouble. Let me tell you more about these radioactive particles. First of all, there are many types of radioactive particles in the environment today. Some of them are even of a natural origin. For instance, the radionuclides potassium-40 and carbon-14 can be found in the plants we eat such as bananas, vegetables, nuts, beans and other. Since these particles are in trace amounts, they won’t affect the radiation level in the body and your homeostasis takes care of it. This, however, GREATLY DIFFERS from man-made radionuclides such as radioactive IODINE, CESIUM, STRONTIUM, URANIUM and other that enter your body and cause damage to the surrouding tissue. 11 Once your body assimilates these particles, it stays there and continues emitting energy for a much longer time and in a much higher strength.

"The New England Journal of Medicine Reports: „War on Cancer Is a Failure: Despite $30 billion spent on research and treatments since 1970, cancer remains "undefeated," with a death rate not lower but 6% higher in 1997 than 1970," - John C. Bailar III, M.D., Ph.D., and Heather L. Gornik, M.H.S "Adenocarcinomas of the lung were seen in rats exposed to uranium oxide without subsequent irradiation by neutrons in the reactor and in rats irradiated with neutrons but not previously exposed to uranium oxide. It is concluded that (i) fission fragments were possibly implicated in the genesis of the squamous cell carcinomas, which only developed in those animals exposed to enriched uranium oxide and neutrons and (ii) the adenocarcinomas in the rats inhaling enriched uranium oxide only were likely to have been caused by protracted irradiation of the lung with alpha-rays emitted from the enriched uranium." - Study: The carcinogenic effect of localized fission fragment irradiation of rat lung.

After such a disaster, corporate media always refer to the impact of external irradiation. Don’t trust what they say. External irradiation is something very different from internal contamination! A simple example of an external irradiation is standing next to an activated X-ray for a few hours. The more you stand next to it, the more you get hurt. Now ask yourself, do you believe that this mechanism can also be applied to the internal contamination? I don’t think so! Always remember that there is a difference between burning your finger from the outside and burning your liver from the inside! It is always the internal contamination that causes health problems! When a major nuclear disaster strikes, there is a lot of RADIOACTIVE DUST flying around the globe. Sooner or later the dust gets into you and contributes to many diseases, including cancer. After the Fukushima disaster, these ‘hot particles’ were measured in Seattle and showed that people living there absorbed about 5 hot particles every day throughout the entire month of April 2011. After more than 100 years of nuclear disasters, the radioactive particles have SPREAD AROUND THE GLOBE. Together with other toxic poisons, they contribute to all major diseases, including CANCER EPIDEMICS, HEART DISEASE and many other 82

In particular, since the Chernobyl disaster, there has been immense interest in Europe in this subject. In the US definitions bias toward the nuclear power industry application. For example, George Xu, Nuclear Engineering and Engineering Physics, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY writes, "Hot Particles are small activation products or fuel fragments found in nuclear power plants that have sizes between 10 and 250 microns.

The IAEA publication "Radioactive Particles in the Environment – Occurrence, Characterisation, Appropriate Analytical Techniques Review.", prepared by Nora Vajda, Budapest, 2001, contains the differing characterisations of Hot Particles from various sources, including atomic weapons tests and the Chernobyl disaster. This is a review of the work on Hot Particle identification in 2001. The author writes, "Due to the small sizes, often in the range of a few micrometers, Hot Particles are very difficult to identify… It is likely that the lack of a reliable procedure for identification often lead(s) to the negligence of hot particles and the underestimation of the role they play in environmental contamination."

The Treatment. None. "The deposits (f.e. of absorbed Radon hot particle) can be removed only by cremating the bone and then boiling the ash in hydrochloric acid." - Dr. Martland 64 "Nuclear fuel particles should not be considered as "becquerels" (or curies) distributed homogenously either in the environment or in a sample. Routinely used analysis procedures designed for bulk samples are not necessarily appropriate for nuclear fuel particles. Routine bulk analysis methods may lead to meaningless or even erroneous results. The identification, isolation, and analysis of individual particles enables results to be obtained that are otherwise inaccessible owing to the interference of non-relevant bulk particles in the sample…. The characteristics of radioactive particles reflect the properties of the source material, which allows for the performance of forensic analysis… Even individual nuclear fuel particles, released uncontrolled into the environment in a severe nuclear accident, may represent an acute health hazard… (…) Their identification and detection in the environment represents a technical, analytical and even philosophical challenge for radiation protection. … the problem that highly active particles may be present in the air although the external dose rate is below the recommended operative action level is not only theoretical."

A Ticking Time Bomb The ‘hot particles’ are microscopic particles the size of only about 10 micrometers (equivalent to 1/4 to 1/5 of the thickness of a human hair), but they are strong emiters of beta and gamma radiations and weaker emiters of alpha radiation. They got their name bacause they are SUPER SMALL and they are SUPER CHARGED, which makes them latch on lung tissue of laboratory animals after the exposure. When ingested, the hot particles become absorbed by your body and cause damage wherever they sit. It could be your intestines, your colon, your bladder, the lymph nodes, the brain or even the vital organs that can become affected. Some particles have a structure similar to minerals that can be found in the nature, which human body needs. This is what makes them so dangerous. They get picked up by the body and they assimilate into the living tissue such as your bones or your muscles. At this stage, we have a constant irritant in the body, a TIME BOMB sitting in your body ready to blow. Often the organism fights and often it wins. But sometimes the particle can get stuck in more sensitive parts of the body like the cornea of the eye, causing 85

a cataract. It can also enter the glands, lymph nodes, muscles, bones, vital organs, including reproductory organs, which are extra sensitive. The particles start bombarding the narrow tissue with free radicals, tearing the cells apart. Some of the cells die, some survive, and some become crippled. These cripped cells are the ones that MUTATE into cancerous. The new-age cancer has just been revealed! You eat things that your body sees as building blocks. And these ‘building blocks’ are the ones that tear you apart with time. You’ve just found the answer to the question why every four seconds someone dies of cancer today. Basically speaking, YOU YOURSELF ARE A TICKING TIME BOMB. THE BOTTOM LINE: Radiation which emits from hot particles damages YOUR tissue and mutates it into cancer. This is one of the major foundations for cancer epidemics. Of course, radiation is not the only cause of the disease. There are other thousand chemicals in the world today which weaken your body on the physical, emotional and spiritual levels that contribute to the cultivation of cancer and many other ailments.

What Are Free Radicals? (The following information is excerpted from: Cantron® is the World's Most Effective Antioxidant Compound, Medical Research Products, www.cantron.com) 140
In the most simplistic terms, free radicals are unstable molecules inside the body that attack stable molecular structures. When chronic and in the absence of sufficient defenses, these attacks cause damage to healthy tissues, organs, cell membranes, blood vessels, proteins, fats, carbohydrates and even DNA strands within the cell. This resultant damage has a cumulative effect and can lead to many disease states. Degradation of DNA in cells caused by free radicals has serious biological consequences such as mutation, carcinogenic transformation, pathologies and cellular aging. It is even reported that free radicals may lead to programmed cell death (apoptosis). According to the National Cancer Institute: "Free radicals are molecules with incomplete electron shells which make them more chemically reactive than those without incomplete electron shells.

"The fuel particles, the size about 10 micrometers, are a strong source of beta and gamma radiation and a weaker source of alpha radiation. The disparity between alpha and beta radiation (alpha activity is typically 100- 1000 times weaker than beta, so the particle loses much more negativecharged particles than positivecharged ones) leads to buildup of positive electrostatic charge on the particle, causing the particle to "jump" from surface to surface and easily become airborne. Fuel fleas are typically rich in uranium 238, and contain an abundance of insoluble fission products. Due to their high beta activity, they can be detected by a Geiger counter. Their gamma output can allow analysis of their isotope composition (and therefore their age and origin) by a gamma ray spectrometer." - Fuel fleas, www.wikipedia.org 96

There are more than 300 theories to explain the aging phenomenon. Among all theories, the free radical theory of aging, postulated first by Dr. Denham Harman at the University Of Nebraska, is the most popular and widely tested. Aging is thought to occur as a result of constant exposure to Reactive Oxygen Species of free radicals with a cumulative damage, through the entire life, along with the gradually decreasing repair capacity and increasing degenerative changes in the organs, tissues and individual cells. The body has enzymes, which can repair much of the damaged proteins, but when these enzymes become damaged themselves, repair processes are compromised. "It is difficult these days to open any medical journal and not find some paper on the role of "Reactive Oxygen Species" or "free radicals" in human disease. The species have been implicated in over 50 diseases. This large number suggests that radicals are not something esoteric, but that they participate as a fundamental component of tissue injury in most, if not all, human diseases."

"Given the complex multistage nature of carcinogenesis, it is reasonable to speculate that clonal evolution toward neoplasia involves a sequence of changes in gene expression driven by both genetic and epigenetic changes. It is now well established that certain chromosomal rearrangements, including translocations and deletions, are associated with a wide variety of "Although no consistent nonrandom chromosomal changes have as yet been associated with radiation carcinogenesis in vivo or in vitro, evidence has been presented implicating specific chromosomal rearrangements in preleukemic clones in ataxia telangiectasia patients and in two types of radiation- induced murine leukemia..." - Holland- Frei CancerMedicine, 6th edition 97

SUMMARY: Free radicals are oxygen byproducts produced when body cells burn oxygen. Besides other environmental factors, the formation of these free radicals is caused by ionizing radiation. A build up of free radicals damages body cells and tissues which surround the particle. Free radicals are associated with many of the degenerative changes seen with aging. The anti-dote to radiation are anti-oxidants. Antioxidants neutralize free radicals, and therefore offer protection against cellular, tissue, and organ damage. (We will discuss this topic in the upcoming volumes of The Education of Cancer Healing collection.) Radioactive particles are carcinogenic and they are one of the main contributors to many acute and chronic diseases, including cancer, PERIOD. Now you know that breathing even in very small amounts of radiatioactive particles which emit only very low doses of radiation is harmful for YOU, YOUR FAMILY, and especially YOUR 49 CHILDREN. Remember that radioactive particles, no matter how many of them, do cause damage to the local tissue.

A TIME BOMB is ticking. And when it goes off, CANCER begins. 144, 145
"Cancer only becomes a problem, when our immune system can't kill the cancer cells fast enough. Assume for a moment that our immune system only kills 1 million cancer cells per day and we produce 1.1 million cancer cells per day. It takes about 1 billion cancer cells to form a tumor, that can be diagnosed via the best scanning devices available. At this rate we would be creating more cancer cells per day, than our immune system can destroy. Therefore, allowing our body to form a tumor." 106 "Cancer has only one prime cause. It is the replacement of normal oxygen respiration of the body's cells by an anaerobic [i.e., oxygen-deficient] cell respiration." - Dr. Otto Heinrich Warburg (1883 - 1970), a German physiologist and medical doctor who served as an officer in the elite Uhlan (cavalry regiment) during the First World War and won the Iron Cross (1st Class) for bravery. The twentieth century's leading biochemist. He won the Nobel Prize, altogether he was nominated three times. 107 "It has been estimated that around 350 cancer cells46 are produced daily by a healthy human body. This number is relative, depending on our external and internal environment. However, every immune system has limits in destroying cancer cells. These limits depend on the strength of the immune system of an individual. Some are stronger, some are weaker."

"It should be forbidden and severely punished to remove cancer by cutting, burning, cautery, and other fiendish tortures. It is from nature that the disease comes, and from nature comes the cure, not from physicians." - Paracelsus, (1493- 1541 AD).
In reality, a person very rarely dies of cancer. It is always starvation and toxicity. As the malignant tumor grows, it gives off waste products which must be eliminated through the colon, liver, kidneys, lungs and skin. These waste products accumulate and gradually overburden the body. Most persons then die of toxemia. - Dr. Kelley 107 Radiation... I mean come on guys! We know that radiation cause cancer. And we are using it to burn out cancer that causes other cancers when it burns out cancer. - Dr. Shulze. Healing Cancer Naturally.108 "I had a Brain Cancer specialist sit in my living room and tell me that he would never take Radiation if he had a Brain Tumour. And I asked him, "But do you send people for Radiation?" And he said, of course. I'd be drummed out of the hospital if I didn't." - Ralph Moss PhD 23

Today I want to tell you 'why'. I want to do that because of a unique perspective. That perspective is 23 years practicing in the epicenter of the implosion of the American Health- Care System. If you care about your liberty, and preserving it you need to care about your health. Medical Care: What it should be vs. what it is? What a medical care should be is a FREE MARKET EXCHANGE; a fiduciary relationship between a provider of a service and a consumer. The moment you engage me as a physician I should have a fiduciary relationship to you, to take your best interest in heart. But what is it actually today? Medical Care is a THIRD PARTY RELATIONSHIP where the provider is coerced to place the needs of the collective over the needs of the individual (patient). In a proper circumstance, when you engage me as a physician, we would be discussing, both the price and the extent of the care that would be provided up front. As it stands nowadays, the patients come to me and ask me "Doc, how much is this going to cost me?"

"I am dying with the help of too many physicians." — Alexander the Great
I have no idea, what to tell the patient. If you get admitted to a hospital you have no real means of negotiating what the extent of treatments is going to be. In most cases, the extent of what is provided to you would be way beyond what you would normally negotiate under a correct provider – recipient relationship. The other thing that happens is instead you get decide what you want or what you don't want, you get a take it or leave it attitude. This is because the system is today protocol driven. If you don't fit into the protocol, you don't accept the protocol. There is no negotiation – it's all or nothing. Who's the blame for this mess? Is it doctors? This is an important point for all of you. Whenever anything is screwed up in your life, I want you to say four words: "It is ALL my fault." Always assume responsibility for everything that's screwed up in your life. Doctors did this to ourselves. The doctors that did it, did it with a short- term gain in mind and they probably knew that the consequences of this would not be born in their lifetime but in the life- time of future physicians and future patients. They sought the 'help' of the government for short term gain. And so they set into motion the longterm, unintended consequences that is the result of our ultimate enslavement.

Let’s look at the conventional therapy for a minute, or we might call it a medical cancer therapy. I don’t have a lot of words to describe it besides, CRUDE and DISFIGURING and PAINFULL and PRIMITIVE. It seems that all the main message that is used in America is surgery, chemotherapy and radiation of which my patients refer to them is mutulation, poisoning and burning. It’s BARBARIC. We’re in the stone age of medicine. Chemotherapy and radiation also cause cancer. They’re CARCINOGENIC. They always make me laugh that we use things that are carcinogenic to treat cancer. I can’t figure that one out, maybe it’s too advanced. In fact a lot of the cancer diagnosis itself is CARCINOGENIC. Mammograms? CARCINOGENIC.

Let’s talk about chemotherapy for a minute here. In Februar 28th, 1929 the GAO, the Government Accounting Office of the United States made a report on chemotherapy. Two important facts where revealed in that report in 1929. The first one is that they did a 10 year study on the use of chemotherapy in breast cancer in Amerika. And the conclusion was that there was NO OBSERVABLE CONCLUSION improvement in any one, who had breast cancer by using chemotherapy. So why they‘re question was, has the usage increased, when nobody has been healed by it? Just because something increases in usage in medicine doesn’t mean that it’s working. Because they are trying to figure out more ways to make THINGS TO SELL YOU, TO MAKE MONEY.
"For the majority of the cancers we examined, the actual improvements (in survival) have been small or have been overestimated by the published rates…It is difficult to find that there has been much progress…(For breast cancer), there is a slight improvement…(which) is considerably less than reported." —General Accounting Office

In the late 70's, the GAO was commissioned by the U.S. Congress to do a study on the efficacy of chemotherapy in treating breast cancer. For those who don't know, the GAO - Government Accounting Office, is an arm of the U.S.G. invented by the U.S.G. for the purpose of reporting statistics on whatever it might be that the U.S.G. is want to have some statistics on. As such, it is not unusual for the GAO to be sent off to study seemingly strange situations no matter how relevant or odd those situations appear to be. Schulze gave the example: if the U.S.G. would like to know, statistically, if doorknobs are generally placed at a proper height (like, do people often bang into them and hurt their hips, or are doorknobs generally installed at a safe height), the GAO is commissioned to go off and study doorknob height and subsequently report whatever statistics they gathered on such. In this instance, they were sent off to statistically study Chemotherapy as a treatment for breast cancer.

We often hear and see the term "an arm of the U.S.G.", so much so that it should cause a thinking person to wonder - just how many arms does the U.S.G. have?; think genetically altered octopus... turbocharged, on steroids, and super sized for good measure and this will at least get a person an idea for how gangly and sprawling the arms of U.S.G. have become. The GAO conducted a 10 year study that produced a report in 1989. The original title of this report, which itself spoke to the conclusion it drew, was "Breast Cancer Patients Have Yet To Realize Benefits from Chemotherapy". Before the report went to publication, various other arms of the collective U.S.G. came down hard on the GAO due to the findings they were about to publish. The collective U.S.G. is often characterized as a VAST NETWORK OF CRIME & CORRUPTION so finely compartmentalized that it often seems that its left hand figuratively does not know what its right hand is doing. In this instance, it is more like the left hand dictating what the right hand must do, or else!

"Clearly, conventional cancer treatments have an important place in medicine and save lives. But since the 1950s, evidence has steadily accumulated that surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy are far less effective than the public is being led to believe. Investigative journalist Daniel Greenberg, writing in the Columbia Journalism Review in 1975, produced the first widely reported exposé showing that cancer survival rates since the 1950s had not progressed, and that improvements from 1930 to 1950 were mainly a consequence of improved hospital nursing care and support systems. Greenberg found that even the valid improvements were very, very small, and that there had been no significant advancements in treating any of the major forms of cancer." - When Healing Becomes a Crime by Kenny Ausubel 13 "We KNOW the answer to cancer…Yet the authorities, in the form of the law of the land (UK), will not allow this book (The Good News On Cancer) to be promoted to lay persons…..it is not permitted that they can even be told where to find information that might help them. That has got to be democracy with a very small d……One eminent publisher…backed out as he feared he could be jailed for infringing the Cancer Act by offering the book to the public.

whatever report was subsequently released to bear the original title. This was said to be the first time in its history that the GAO was PROHIBITED from releasing a report that it had been previously commissioned to produce. The new title given to the altered version of this report was "Breast Cancer Patient Survival". Although the report as it originally existed was censored from release to the public, the GAO was able to sort of sneak in under the radar: 1) some of the letters they had received from various government agencies who had been the ones leaning on them to not publish the report in its original form; 2) The statement made in the published report's conclusion. Conclusion: How is it possible; that is, what would explain our consistent finding that there is NO OBSERVABLE IMPROVEMENT in breast cancer patient survival even though the use of chemotherapy has increased considerably in the last 10 years? At least at one time, this kind of report was available to anyone in the public who requested it. That was generally during a time when the collective U.S.G. still functioned somewhat loosely within the guidelines

"These "proven" cancer treatments are themselves largely unproven. The standard of proof for therapeutic efficacy is in fact a double standard. Surgery was grandfathered in as standard practice early in the twentieth century without randomized, doubleblind clinical trials, which only became widespread in the 1960s with the advent of chemotherapy. Its dangers and limitations have since been only superficially acknowledged or studied, and little is known about its efficacy in relation to a baseline marker of no treatment. Like surgery, radiation therapy was grandfathered in without rigorous testing. Radiation is carcinogenic and mutagenic. In the few tests comparing radiation treatment against no treatment, according to Jones, "Most of the time, it makes not the slightest difference if the machine is turned on or not." Jones went even further, saying, "My studies have proved conclusively that untreated cancer victims actually live up to four times longer." Radiation is often combined with surgery despite the fact that tests have generally shown it made no apparent favorable difference. A recent study with patients with the most common form of lung cancer found that postoperative radiation therapy, which is routinely given, actually raises the relative risk of death by 21 percent, with its most detrimental effects on those in the early stages of illness. Nevertheless, radiation is used on about half of cancer patients. " - When Healing Becomes a Crime - Kenny Ausubel 13

By what passes for today's standards, a person may still be able to get this report. For those interested, you can try writing to the GAO and requesting a copy of this report. Request the report February 1989 Report (subsequently entitled) "Breast Cancer Patient Survival" by writing to: United States General Accounting Office; Washington D.C., 20548 The circumstances surrounding this GAO report should help disabuse anyone who has the notion of doubting the extent of corruption and absolute power of institutionalized entities such as the AMA and big Pharma. The conclusion of this report should cause a thinking person to ask other relevant questions, such as: If this is the kind of results that chemotherapy causes with breast cancer, is it likely it causes similar results for the various other cancers for which it is routinely brought to bear?; given that the report found no credible evidence of benefits of chemotherapy used for breast cancer patients, would it not be a good idea to commission a similar study to determine how much damage chemotherapy may be causing cancer patients - breast and otherwise, that it is administered to?

"Organized medicine quickly adopted the stance that his alleged "cures" fell into three categories: those who never had cancer in the first place; those who were cured by prior radiation and surgery; and those who died." - When Healing Becomes a Crime by Kenny Ausubel 13 "There will never be a CURE for Cancer until the Establishment can accomplish their objectives by permitting it. Their primary goals are money and control. What big conglomerate will get the blessings of the Big Establishment? Nothing happens on the world scene that is not planned and designed by The Big Establishment. After 30 years of planning Metabolic Programs for some 33,000 Counselees and developing the scientific Paradigm for the PROPER CURE AND TREATMENT OF MALIGNANCY, I would like to share some of the conclusions. First, we fall victim, not only to cancer, but also to the very clever brainwashing of our number one ENEMY.

Cancer is one of the most dreaded diseases affecting mankind. It is the SECOND leading cause of death in the industrialized countries and a significant health burden in other countries in the world. Decades of scientific and clinical research conducted at leading institutions worldwide have achieved marginal progress in managing this disease and a cure for it is not even in sight. What do we know about cancer Cancer is characterized by a continuous proliferation of undifferentiated cells that tend to invade surrounding tissue and metastasize to new body sites. Over one hundred types of cancer have been classified. The tissue of origin gives the cancer distinguishing characteristics, and approximately 85% of cancers occur in cells of epithelial origin and are classified as carcinomas. Cancers derived from mesodermal cells, such as bone and muscle cells, are called sarcomas and

"Delving into attitudes, actions, and beliefs of modern oncologists was like opening a box of cereal and finding it full of worms. They just don’t care….The question I kept asking was why, and the answer to that question gradually began to creep out: Dr Burzynski’s discovery threatens one of the largest and most lucrative industries in the history of mankind, the cancer treatment industry. All those radiation machines and doctors who run them All those chemotherapy drugs and the doctors who prescribe them All those so called studies that just juggle the doses of chemo & radiation, and surgery. All those surgeons who have been flailing at cancer for over a 100 years If it (antineoplastons) is allowed to flourish, it renders obsolete the entire cancer treatment industry. He has discovered a non- toxic treatment that is about as close to cure as we have ever seen. If you think the lumber jacks in the Pacific Northwest were scornful of the spotted owl, you haven’t seen anything yet (...). Also it is not just about money, it is about strongly held beliefs, beliefs that have meshed with the personality of virtually everyone in the cancer treatment industry, especially the physicians. In short, these beliefs are that cancer can only be treated with therapies that mutilate, poison, or burn the patient, in the hope that they "kill" the cancer….. Therefore, each patient who is miraculously cured by Burzynski’s nontoxic therapy is not viewed as a breakthrough, or even as something good, but rather as a dangerous messenger of heresy, a terrible threat to their beliefs." - Dr Whitaker, M.D.
cancers of glandular tissues, e.g., breast tissue, are called adenocarcinomas. In many cases cancer develops as a result of exposure to radiation, viruses, and various chemical toxins, including certain medical drugs. About 5075% of cancers have been recognized as preventable since they are triggered by factors that can be avoided, such as improper diets, micronutrient deficiencies or environmental pollutants. Although there is a great diversity of these causative agents, the end cellular response is always the same - the production of cells with the following characteristic which applies to most, if not all, cancers. Independent growth: Cancer cells multiply independently and at a different rate compared to neighboring cells Unlimited growth potential. Cancer cells lack biological signals which regulate and limit their multiplication Immortality of cancer cells. Due to an error in the genetic program which determines the time of cell death (apoptosis) cancer cells do not die like all normal cells in the body which have a limited life span An ability to trigger growth of new blood vessels (Angiogenesis).

that trigger formation of new blood vessels essential to support tumor growth Invasion in the tissue and metastasis to other organs. Cancer expansion is possible because malignancy triggers uncontrolled digestion of collagen and connective tissue paving the way for cancer cells to invade and spread (…). Conventional therapies The majority of current therapies are not cancer- specific and do not curtail the spread of cancer to different organs. They are based on the use of highly toxic chemical agents (chemotherapy) and radiation (radiotherapy). Both treatments generate serious side effects, organ damage and secondary cancers. As a result, these treatments have not been successful in controlling cancer and on the contrary, many cancers are increasing. Comprehensive review of the effectiveness of chemotherapy in 22 types of cancer has shown that these highly toxic treatments increase a chance for five- year survival by merely 2.1% and in many types of cancer, chemotherapy does not offer any benefits (Clinical Oncology 2004). The basis of chemotherapy and radiation is the destruction of rapidly dividing cells, such as cancer cells. However,

"There had been a head of the FDA (who later turned out to be a fraud) his name was Fishbein and he was rampantly opposed to any alternative therapy. He went after Hoxsey, the Hoxsey therapy back in the 1940's and 50's, and destroyed Hoxsey. But not before Hoxsey sued the AMA and Fishbein and [proved] that the therapy actually worked. But it didn't help him because they closed him down anyhow" - Fascism in Medicine by Gary Null, Ph.D "Over the next three years, Krebiozin was destroyed. But to destroy Krebiozin you first had to destroy Andrew Ivy. How do you destroy the most influential, respected scientist in the United States? You get friends in the media. You get rid of his academic affiliations. You start a whisper campaign. And next thing you know, nobody wants to know the man. It took about five years, then they brought him up on a trial of fraud. It was at that point the longest medical trial in the United States' history. At the end of it, the jury found Ivy and the Durovic brothers innocent. Not only that, but they found the FDA irresponsible. And the jury actually made a statement, which is rare, about the contempt that the FDA had for honesty in what it did at trial." - Fascism in Medicine by Gary Null, Ph.D "But today in the United States, and this shows you where fascism REALLY exists, ANY doctor in the United States who cures cancer using alternative methods will be destroyed. You cannot name me a doctor doing well with cancer using alternative therapies that is not under attack. And I KNOW these people; I've interviewed them." - Gary Null
these treatments do not discriminate between healthy and abnormal (cancer) cells. As a result they also damage cells in healthy organs that have a high renewal rate and are frequently dividing, such as the cells of bone marrow, skin, the intestinal lining and many other organs. Therefore a frequent consequence of these therapies is anemia and WEAKENING OF THE IMMUNE SYSTEM further impairing the elimination of cancer cells. Intestinal bleeding triggered by these therapies impairs the absorption of nutrients and contributes to diminishing the body’s natural ability to fight cancer. The consequence of the administration of such powerful chemical toxins or radiation is damage to the genetic machinery of the cells, the DNA, leading to DEVELOPMENT of new cancers. These interventions also activate the secretion of enzymes that facilitate the release of cancer cells from the surrounding connective tissue accelerating the spread of cancer to other organs. Chemotherapy often fails since many cancer cells develop resistance to these toxic agents. In this situation approximately 80% of patients diagnosed with cancer seek alternative therapies, which include antioxidants and other essential nutrients.

Deadlock in conventional cancer research: Despite the fact that 90% of deaths from cancer result from metastasis, pharmaceutical research has largely ignored this fact. As reported by the New York Times in 2007 there are less than 100 research groups worldwide which are researching metastasis. The reason for this can be found by understanding the principles of the pharmaceutical business, which builds its profits from the existence of diseases as a market for their patented drugs. As such, pharmaceutical research works towards developing novel, synthetic components which can be protected by patents. In many cases natural compounds have been chemically modified in order to make them eligible for patent protection (ie. tamoxifen) . Additionally, since these substances are toxic do the body cells and generate various side effects they create the needs for new drugs to deal with these health problems. This further expands drug business markets resulting with the lack of incentives for changing the system. World wide pharmaceutical drug market is $550 billion business. In contrast, the focus and direction of research at the Dr Rath Research Institute has been on finding effective health solutions using natural, nonpatentable, safe and effective approaches in combating cancer.

Almost from its inception, the National Cancer Institute has staunchly opposed alternative cancer treatments. A class action suit, now proposed, could change all that. The NCI has consistently suppressed information about and scuttled reputable research on hydrazine sulfate, an anticancer agent that, for several years, was primarily responsible for extending Keeton's life. She wanted other Americans to have the right to choose hydrazine sulfate and she wanted them to join her in staging a class action suit against the U.S. government. Kathy Keeton fought off what her doctors had called terminal Stage IV breast cancer with a life expectancy of a mere six weeks. Refusing chemotherapy and defying her doctors, she extended her life for another two years with a nontoxic substance hydrazine sulfate - that cost only $3 a week. After considerable research, Dr. Gold identified hydrazine sulfate as an experimental synthetic chemical capable of inhibiting the loss of protein or body mass caused by cancer and, thus, preventing extreme weight loss.

"Chemotherapy is an incredibly lucrative business for doctors, hospitals, and pharmaceutical companies…..The medical establishment wants everyone to follow the same exact protocol. They don’t want to see the chemotherapy industry go under, and that’s the number one obstacle to any progress in oncology." - Dr Warner, M.D. "While writing the story of Gerson, I couldn’t help feeling it was too shocking to believe. The friends with whom I discussed it became almost angry in their denial that anything of the sort could happen in this day and age. It developed that we were all naïve…there had been dozens of lone scientists…who had been stamped out of existence and driven to spending their last days in solitude and bitterness." - S.J. Haught (Dr. Max Gerson, Censured for Curing Cancer). "On two occasions Gerson became violently ill...Lab tests showed...arsenic in his urine. Some of Gerson's best case histories mysteriously disappeared from his files...Gerson was invited on a talk show by host Long John Nebel...Nebel was fired the very next day and the radio network was threatened by the AMA." - Norman Fritz.

Early research supported Dr. Gold's supposition. A study of 740 cancer patients (200 with lung cancer, 138 with stomach cancer, 66 with breast cancer, 63 with Hodgkin's disease, and 31 with melanoma, among others) reported tumor stabilization or regression in about 51% of patients, while 46.6% of the patients reported symptomatic improvements, such as fewer respiratory problems, pain reduction, and a decrease in fever. Research at Harbor- UCLA Medical Center in Los Angeles, California, showed that hydrazine sulfate extended survival rates of lung cancer patients. "The NCI failed to inform patients that the concomitant use of certain medications, tranquilizers, barbiturates, or alcohol during the test could deactivate the therapeutic action of hydrazine sulfate and induce morbidity and mortality in patients," Keeton told the Digest a few weeks before her death. Not only is this bad science, it is potentially criminal because some patients died as a result of their participation in the trials, she added. Following the debacle, the FDA withdrew its "had compassionate use" proviso which allowed physicians to oversee patients taking hydrazine sulfate.

For the past 25 years, most of the laboratory research into metastatic breast cancer has been based on a single breast tumor cell line known as MDA- MB- 435. At least 650 papers have been published on studies involving this cell line. Yet it has been revealed that this supposed breast cancer cell line may in fact not be composed of breast cancer cells at all. Instead, it appears that the cells are derived from melanoma. For 25 years, therefore, breast cancer research using this cell line - and it is one of the most widely used - has been based on an incorrect model. Melanoma- derived tumor cells are not biologically equivalent to breast cancer cells; they have different molecular and genetic characteristics. - Startling Revelation About Breast Cancer Research "A solution to cancer would mean the termination of research programs, the obsolescence of skills, the end of dreams of personal glory, triumph over cancer would dry up contributions to self- perpetuating charities....It would mortally threaten the present clinical establishments by rendering obsolete the expensive surgical, radiological and chemotherapeutic treatments in which so much money, training and equipment is invested....The new therapy must be disbelieved, denied, discouraged and disallowed at all costs, regardless of actual testing results, and preferably without any testing at all." - Robert Houston and Gary Null

In the September issue of Penthouse (as well as the New York Times and Washington Post), in which a full- page ad announced his intention to sue the NCI, Guccione published an article, branding the war on cancer "the $200- Billion Scam." Jeff Kamen, author of the article, points out that while the U.S. government has spent $200 billion of American taxpayers' money in the last 25 years on its "war against cancer" and its supposed search for cancer cures, it also spends time and money attacking inexpensive alternatives, such as hydrazine sulfate, despite their proven efficacy. The NCI's continuing hidden agenda to bury the real cancer cures, and to steadfastly oppose research into hydrazine sulfate, is "a Washington scandal of astonishing proportions," says Kamen. According to him, a Government Accounting Office investigation of sloppy science at the NCI regarding the hydrazine sulfate clinical trials ended up as a genial whitewash of the NCI methods and results.

Five radiologists have served as presidents of the American Cancer Society (ACS). In its every move, the ACS promotes the interests of the major manufacturers of mammogram machines and films, including Siemens, DuPont, General Electric, Eastman Kodak, and Piker. This bias hypes mammography, which Dr. Epstein and Rosalie Bertell, Ph.D. of the International Physicians for Humanitarian Medicine emphasize is an avoidable cause of breast cancer. "The mammography industry conducts research for the ACS and its grantees, serves on its advisory boards, and donates considerable funds," they warn. "DuPont also is a substantial backer of the ACS Breast Health Awareness Program; sponsors television shows and other media productions touting ACS literature for hospitals, clinics, medical organization, and doctors; produces educational films; and aggressively lobbies Congress for legislation promoting the nationwide availability of mammography services." In virtually all its actions, the ACS has been and remains strongly linked with the mammography industry. Meanwhile, it ignores or attacks breast self examination (BSE), following training by expert nurses or clinicians, which is the safe and effective alternative, say Drs. Epstein and Bertell.

The NCI should be held accountable for 25 years of protracted, unrelieved opposition to genuine breakthroughs in nontoxic cancer treatments and for wasting $200 billion of taxpayer money on pharmaceutical drugs with little efficacy. It's not just public money wasted. How many lives lost to cancer could have been saved if using alternative cancer approaches had not been virtually a criminal act for the last 50 years? Serious, probing questions should be publicly raised and debated as to why this extravagantly futile research budget should be extended into the future. If 25 years and $200 billion yielded almost nothing of benefit to cancer patients, why not discontinue the effort today? The Digest agrees with Kathy Keeton that every cancer patient on the planet should have the same chance as she did to use alternative treatments. Hydrazine sulfate gave her two years when her doctors said she would die in six weeks. But we think every cancer patient should have access to all cancer therapies that are nontoxic, nonharmful, and have strong clinical support for their effectiveness.

The Fund had not been going very long before we encountered some opposition and pressure from certain figures in the medical profession and from a national leukaemia charity. They wished us to stop our help and support of victims and relatives. Pressure was put on hospital staff to refuse help from us for the victims and relatives but we still managed to help to buy some medical equipment as well as comforts for victims and relatives. This opposition eventually ceased a few years later when we stopped fund raising . One reason given for the opposition was that we were diverting funds from research into possible cures and should not be concerning ourselves with support for victims and their families, nor with prevention of the conditions, despite knowing the causes in most cases. Medical charities are controlled by the medical profession and therefore by the drug and chemical industries. It is they that actually cause the vast majority of blood disorders, leukaemia and other cancers. It is perhaps not surprising then that we experienced such opposition from those profiting initially by causing the conditions and then again by selling the treatment. Prevention and the best care and treatment cannot be achieved without informing the public and victims of the causes.

light much about the NCI's reprehensible actions against the health of the American public. But we also point out that no single substance, no matter how natural, nontoxic, or well- researched, will ever be a magic bullet for everyone or, probably, even for many people. Cancer is an exceedingly complex disease, compounded by layers of dysfunction, toxicity, and immune compromise. It is also strikingly individualized, with no two patients having the same medical history. Many factors combine to create a cancer and many modalities and substances must be used synergistically to reverse it, dependably and permanently. This is the larger medical view that we hope will emerge and prevail in the wake of Guccione's lawsuit against the NCI.
Mammography was known to cause cancer but the media and the "health officials" in the government stayed silent! The mammography policy pushed by the American Cancer Society to fill its bank account remained the U.S. government policy for ten more years until a massive Canadian study showed conclusively what was known 20 YEARS before but what was not in the interests of ACS and NCI to admit: X raying the breasts of women younger than age 50 provided no benefit and probably endangered their lives.

Staging: In cancer terminology is a relative index of how much cancer exists in the body, its size, location, and containment or metastasis. Stage I: the earliest, most curable stage, shows only local tumor involvement. Stage II: indicates some spreading of cancer to the surrounding tissues and perhaps to nearby lymph nodes. Stage III: involves metastasis to distant lymph nodes. Stage IV: the most advanced and least easily cured, means the cancer has spread to distant organs."

"Keep in mind that the 5 year mark is still used as the official guideline for "cure" by mainstream oncologists. Statistically, the 5 year cure makes chemotherapy look good for certain kinds of cancer, but when you follow cancer patients beyond 5 years, the reality often shifts in a dramatic way." – Dr. Diamond. "The Imperial Cancer Research Fund writes- - "One of the biggest myths in recent years is that there is a cancer epidemic by exposure to radiation, pollution, pesticides and food additives. the truth is that these factors have very little to do with the majority of cancers in this country. In fact food additives may have a protective effect- - particulary against stomach cancer." Decades ago they (cancer charities) were relatively independent from industry...Now they are all but departments of large pharaceutical companies. The Imperial Cancer Research Fund (ICRF)..is a case in point. While most lay people imagine that it is simply a worthy charity collecting money to research cancer, few will understand that it is itself a mutli- million pound corporation which hardly makes a move independently of professional science, or its industrial pharmaceutical patrons and backers. Through its council and its benefactors, the ICRF is run by, and mainly for, the profit of the pharmaceutical companies the very corporations whose products would have to be investigated for any wideranging investigation of cancerand the environment." - Martin Walker writing in the Ecologist vol 28 No 2.

(New Eng J Med, March 21, 1996) "With some cancers, notably liver, lung, pancreas, bone and advanced breast, our 5 year survival from traditional therapy alone is virtually the same as it was 30 years ago." - P Quillin, Ph.D.

„Diterest in the research of late effects of radiation and chemotherapy has expanded in parallel with an improvement in efficacy and longer survival in children with brain tumors. 2.1 Radiation Therapy: Chronic toxicity of radiation affects the majority of children treated for brain tumors and in a significant percentage of cases leads to chronic disabilities and death. 2.1.1 Radiation Necrosis: In a series of 80 patients, Sheline et al. determined That the interval from completion of radiation therapy to development of cerebral necrosis ranged from 4 months to 7.5 years. Recurrent tumors and late radiation necrosis share many similar clinical and MRI features. There is no effective treatment for delayed radiation necrosis; however, some patients have benefited from hyperbaric oxygen treatment. The incidence of radiation necrosis is related to the dosage of radiation and may occur in up to 7% of patients treated with hyperfractionated radiation.1931 Maintaining the dose

"A study of over 10,000 patients shows clearly that chemo’s supposedly strong track record with Hodgkin’s disease (lymphoma) is actually a lie. Patients who underwent chemo were 14 times more likely to develop leukemia and 6 times more likely to develop cancers of the bones, joints, and soft tissues than those patients who did not undergo chemotherapy." John Diamond (NCI Journal 87:10)." "The NCI should be held accountable for 25 years of protracted, unrelieved opposition to genuine breakthroughs and for wasting $200 billion of taxpayer money on pharmaceutical drugs with little efficacy." - Burton Goldberg "Worldwide cancer experts agree that chemotherapy is largely ineffective in destroying cancer cells; instead killing mostly healthy cells in the process." - Hemp For Victory Trust "We know that conventional therapy doesn’t work—if it did you would not fear cancer any more than you fear pneumonia. It is the utter lack of certainty as to the outcome of conventional treatment that virtually screams for more freedom of choice in the area of cancer therapy. Yet most so- called alternative therapies regardless of potential or proven benefit, are outlawed, which forces patients to submit to the failures we know don’t work, because there is no other choice." - Julian Whitaker, M.D.110
of radiation for low- grade tumors to 54Gy in 30 fractions and for high- grade gliomas to 60Gy in 33 fractions may prevent radiation necrosis and subsequent death. 2.1.2 Necrotizing Leukoencephalopathy: Necrotizing leukoencephalopathy was first described in children who received cranial irradiation and methotrexate. Patients with this syndrome develop dernyeliiiization, multifocal coagula¬tion necrosis, and gliosis, and most have permanent neurologic deficits. No known treatment exists for this condition, but it may reverse spontaneously in some cases. 2.1.3 Cranial Neuropathy: Optic neuropathy occurs in patients receiving high doses of radiation. This adverse effect was not reported in the study by Parson et al. in which 106 adult patients with head and neck rumors received <59Gy, but higher doses of radiation increase the incidence of optic neuropathy to 47%. 2.1.4 Cognitive Disability: Numerous studies have confirmed the deleterious effect of radiation on

cognitive function. The severity of impairment relates to the total dose of radiation, the fraction size, and the patient's age. Children aged <4 years are especially vulnerable. Adults who received radiation therapy for brain tumors in childÂŹhood have greater difficulty finding employment. 2.1.5 Endocrine Dysfunction: In various studies, 47- 65% of children treated with radiation for brain tumors had chronic growth hormone deficiency. As a result, a high proportion of survivors have shorl stalure. Irradiation of the hypothalamic- pituitary axis can result in thyroid hormone and gonadotropin deficiency. In some studies, more than two- thirds of children developed postradiation thyroid dysfunction. Gonadotropin deficiency leads to a lack or an interruption in pubertal development. The incidence of gonadotropin deficiency was as high as 11% in one study. Children with endocrine dysfunction are evaluated and treated with hormone replacement." â&#x20AC;&#x17E;2.1.6 Radiation- Induced Tumors: Radiation- induced tumors are distinct entities and include meningiomas, cranial sarcomas, and

"The great success stories of chemotherapy were always in relatively obscure types of cancer. Childhood leukemia constitutes less than two percent of all cancers and many of chemotherapy's other successes were in diseases so rare that many clinicians had never even seen a single case (Burkitt's lymphoma, choriocarcinoma, etc.)" - Ralph Moss 23 "If you can shrink the tumour 50% or more for 28 days you have got the FDA's definition of an active drug. That is called a response rate, so you have a response..(but) when you look to see if there is any life prolongation from taking this treatment what you find is all kinds of hocus pocus and song and dance about the disease free survival, and this and that. In the end there is no proof that chemotherapy in the vast majority of cases actually extends life, and this is the GREAT LIE about chemotherapy, that somehow there is a correlation between shrinking a tumour and extending the life of the patient." - Ralph Moss 23 "A study was done which shows the majority of oncologists who refer patients for chemotherapy for lung cancer would not themselves take chemotherapy for lung cancer. And in fact if the chemotherapy involved cisplaten, something like 75% of them said they wouldn't take it. But what do these people do all day long? They're sending people for cis- platen." - Ralph Moss 23
gliomas.In a large series of children who had more than one malignancy, in approximately half of the patients, radiation therapy for the first malignancy was a possible etiologic factor for a second tumor. In approximately 25% of these patients, NF1 was felt to be a contributing factoi. Additional studies have supported an increased risk of a secondary malignancy in children after irradiation. The British Childhood Cancer Research Group found a 5- fold increase in the risk of a secondary malignancy in a population of over 10 000 survivors of childhood malignancies. 2.2 Chemotherapy: The use of chemotherapy as a primary treatment tor astroÂŹcytoma, especially in very young children, has beeu justified by a reduction in radiation- induced brain damage. Unfortunately, cytotoxic chemotherapy also contributes to a wide spectrum of chronic toxicities. 2.2.1 Chronic Myelosuppressfon: Nitrosoureas (carmitstine and lomustine), cisplatin, and carboplatin may cause chronic myelosuppression that persists after discontinuation of chemotherapy.

"Vaccinations and sulfa drugs have been recognised as being directly responsible for the production of leukemia in humans." - (Dr B. Duperrat, of the Sant- Louis Hospital in Paris, writing in the French medical journal Presse Medicale, March 12 1955.) "Already published reports, as well as our own observations indicate that smallpox vaccination sometimes produces manifestations of leukemia. In children and adults observed in the clinics of Cracow, smallpox vaccination has been followed by violent local and general reactions and by leukemia."- - - (Professors Julian Aleksandrowickz and Boguslave Halileokowski of the Medical Academy of Cracow, Poland wrote as reported in Lancet, May 6 1967.) "The vaccine modifies the terrain of the vaccinated, driving it towards alkaline and oxidised terrain - the terrain of cancer. The fact can no longer be denied." - The January 1958 issue of another French medical journal, Revue De Pathologie Generale et de Physiologie Clinique. "Up to 10% of childhood cancers are caused by radiological examination during pregnancy." - Prof. R. Doll, Nature, Vol. 265, 1977, page 589.

Serious infection caused by leukopenia is the common fatal complication of carmustine treatment. Hemorrhage due to thrombocytopenia is less common, but cisplatin may cause significant anemia. 2.2.2 Gonadal Dysfunction: Carmustine, lomustine, procarbazine, and cispiatin are known to cause gonadal dysfunction in girls and boys. In prepubertal girls, primary ovarian dysfunction may improve and ovarian function may return to normal after the cessation of treatment with carmustme. Nitrosoureas contribute to a high incidence of oligospermia. 2.2.3 Renal Insufficiency: Nitrosoureas and cisplatin may cause renal insufficiency. Nephrotoxicity is proportional to the total dosage of chemotherapy. It may persist following the cessation of treatment, and lead to chronic renal failure requiring dialysis. 2.2.4 Pulmonary Toxicity: An interstitial inflammatory process in the lungs causing deÂŹcreased oxygen transfer was first reported in

"The man in the street has unfortunately been sold the idea that the breakthrough cure for cancer is just around the corner... The very prospect of effective treatment seems so remote that it doesn't even enter into the speculative day- today conversation of people engaged in cancer research... New treatments have not produced any detectable decline in the total annual cancer mortality, even for children." John Cairns, Director of the Imperial Cancer Research Fund's Mill Hill Laboratory, Cancer, Science and Society, 1978. "In England and Wales, total death rates from all forms of leukemia have increased more than six times between 1920 and 1952... According to Wilkinson, sulphanomides (antibiotics) stand convicted as one of the contributing factors, even when fairly low dosages were employed. In cases reported in detail, the tragic path from a granulocytosis to haemolitic anaemia and acute monolytic leukemia is revealed in black and white." - (The July 1957 issue of Medical World, article by Freda Lucas.) "The five year cancer survival statistics of the American Cancer Society are very misleading. They now count things that are not cancer, and, because we are able to diagnose at an earlier stage of the disease, patients falsely appear to live longer. Our whole cancer research in the past 20 years has been a failure. More people over 30 are dying from cancer than ever beforeâ&#x20AC;ŚMore women with mild or benign diseases are being included in statistics and reported as being "cured" (...)." - Dr J. Bailer, New England Journal of Medicine
1976 as a fatal complication of carmustiae treatment. Pneumonitis has been reported with procarbazine and vincristine. These complications may respond to corticosteroid administration. 2.2.5 Neurotoxicity: Intracarotid administration of carmustine has been shown to cause ipsilateral visual loss in 25- 65% of patients. Loss of vision may start several weeks after the treatment and progress to irreversible blindness. Leukoencephalopathy and increased incidences of seizures have been described in patients after high dose carmustine. Peripheral neuropathy is a well known adverse event associated with vincristine In some cases, crania] nerve dysfunction develops with diplopia, hoarseness, dysphagia, and facial nerve paralysis. Autonomic neuropathy with orthostatic hypotension and CNS symptoms including depression, confusion, and insomnia have also been reported. Cisplatin may cause peripheral neuropathy that may progress to motor involve- ment. The neuropathy may continue and worsen long after discontinuation of cisplatin.

When government officials point to survival figures and say they are winning the war against cancer they are using those survival rates improperly." - Dr J. Bailer, New England Journal of Medicine (Dr Bailerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s answer to questions put by Neal Barnard MD of the Physicians Committee For Responsible Medicine and published in PCRM "The Imperial Cancer Research Fund writes- - "One of the biggest myths in recent years is that there is a cancer epidemic by exposure to radiation, pollution, pesticides and food additives. the truth is that these factors have very little to do with the majority of cancers in this country. In fact food additives may have a protective effect- - particulary against stomach cancer." Decades ago they (cancer charities) were relatively independent from industry...Now they are all but departments of large pharaceutical companies. The Imperial Cancer Research Fund (ICRF)..is a case in point. While most lay people imagine that it is simply a worthy charity collecting money to research cancer, few will understand that it is itself a mutli- million pound corporation which hardly makes a move independently of professional science, or its industrial pharmaceutical patrons and backers. Through its council and its benefactors, the ICRF is run by, and mainly for, the profit of the pharmaceutical companies the very corporations whose products would have to be investigated for any wideranging investigation of cancerand the environment." - Martin Walker writing in the Ecologist vol 28 No 2. Matin Walker is the author of Dirty Medicine. (ICRF http://www.icnet.uk/ )
2.2.6 Hearing Loss: Treatment with cisplatin may result in sensory hearing loss. It may start as tinnitus and progress to highfrequency hearing loss and deafness. Decreased hearing may worsen after discontinuation of the drug. Periodic audiograms may help to detect initial toxicity before occurrence of symptoms. 2.2.7 Cognitive Disability: Chemotherapyinduced decreased hearing (see section 2.2.6) may affect speech, normal cognitive development, and learning in children. Very young children have shown an abnormality in physical and psychologic development after pre- irradiation chemotherapy for brain tumors. Neuropsychologic evaluation is recommended at the completion of chemotherapy and again 3- 5 years later for a young child. 2.2.8 ChemotherapyInduced Hematologic Malignancies Carmustine: and lomustine have been reported to contribute to myelofibrosis, secondary myelodysplasia, and acute leukemia fol- lowing treatment of gliomas. The incidence of leukemia is less frequent after treatment with procarbazine and cisplatin.

"The FDA, NCI and ACS, and the large treatment centres work to eliminate choice of cancer therapies, particulary better ones. They openly attack breakthroughs made by "mavericks", which they define as anyone outside their ranks. Folks, any serious study of how these entities work together to destroy hopeful approaches to cancer reveals a trail of corruption, conspiracy, dishonesty, and inhumanity that warrants desigantion of evil……..We continue to use them not because they work, but because those who perform them have so vigorously eliminated any other choice. First, I would not even check in with a conventional oncologist, particulary not one from a prominent cancer institution. Their expertise is in implementing the erroneous paradigm that cancer must be purged from the body with toxic methods. This is, in my opinion, no more valuable than maps from the Flat Earth Society. When there is a paradigm shift- - - and we definitely are in the middle of one with cancer treatment- - - those sitting on the lofty perches of authority are the last to make the change, because they are guarding the paradigm about to be replaced. I don’t buy maps of a flat earth, and I wouldn’t go to the NCI or Memorial Sloan- Kettering Centre for cancer treatment. I’d turn my back on 50 years of institutionalised expertise, because it follows the wrong paradigm. Everything that is done in medicine today or in any other discipline fits some paradigm. The paradigm I use for cancer is that it is a systemic problem in which the normal control mechanisms of your body are altered. Your immune system likely bears the largest burden for this control; thus, all techniques that enhance it are promising. Those that damage it are not." - Julian Whitaker, M.D. 110
2.3 Targeted Therapy: Therapy oriented against single targets has not yet been used in children for a sufficient period to determine latent effects. Based on the results in adult patients, the incidence of late toxicities is substantially lower than that for radiation and chemotherapy. Multi- targeted ANP therapy is free from chronic toxicity in children and adults based on the results of numerous clinical studies involving 1652 adults and 335 children. Long- term follow- up of children treated with ANP for astrocytomas revealed normal development, no cognitive or endocrine deficiencies, and normal fertility. A substantial number of these patients have been tumor free for >5 years and the follow- up period lor some of these patients is >17 years. Data in the emerging literature on gene or protein micorarray analysis of tumors show these techniques to predict responses to targeted therapies and reduce toxicity with greater precision than is possible with clinical findings. It is hoped that such an approach will provide individualized care for patients with brain tumors.'149'"

In the last 100 years, the cancer rates have SKYROCKETED from 1:200 to 1:25. The impact is that YOU have cancer epidemics at your hands. Today, every man after 50 has prostate cancer in the U.S.! On the other hand, The National Cancer Institute, The American Cancer Society and The Food and Drug Administration show hostility to the prevention of cancer and alternative cancer treatments. In other words, we live in a predesigned system, pre-designed lifestyle with PREDESIGNED EPIDEMICS! There will be no World War III – we are already in the middle of it!

"A typical edition of the book, Unproven Methods, published by the American Cancer Society, lists 58 unproven methods of treating cancer. By this is meant that these 58 methods have not been tested by the ACS, SKI, or NIH, and shown to be worthwhile. On that annotated list only about 10 were examined.

Synthesize polyacrylamides, which find many uses as water- soluble thickeners. Acrylonitrile is used principally as a monomer to prepare the polyacrylonitrile, a homopolymer, or several important copolymers such as styrene- acrylonitrile (SAN), acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), acrylonitrile styrene acrylate (ASA), and other synthetic rubbers such as acrylonitrile butadiene (NBR). Dimerization of acrylonitrile affords adiponitrile, used in the synthesis of certain polyamides. Small amounts are also used as a fumigant. Acrylonitrile and derivatives such as 2- chloro- acrylonitrile are dienophiles in Diels- Alder reactions. Acrylonitrile is also a precursor in the industrial manufacture of acrylamide and acrylic acid.2 Used as an insecticide - A pyrolysate that exhibited mutagenic activity toward Salmonella typhimurium TA98 and TA100 from the pyrolytic products of soybean globulin.

Fossil Fuels - Benzo[b]fluorantheneis present as a component of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) content in the environment, usually resulting from the incomplete combustion or pyrolysis of organic matters, especially fossil fuels and tobacco. ACGIH recommends environments containing benzo(b)fluoranthene should be evaluated in terms of the TLV- TWA for coal tar pitch volatile, as benzene soluble 0.2 mg/mĹ&#x201A;. Insufficient data are available on the effect of this substance on human health, therefore utmost care must be taken. Card has been partially updated in April 2010: see Occupational Exposure Limits, Storage. 3 Present as a component of the total content of polynuclear aromatic compounds of the environment. Human exposure to benzo[j]fluoranthene occurs primarily through the smoking of tobacco, inhalation of polluted air and by ingestion of food and water contaminated by combustion effluents. 4 Pharmaceuticals and natural products.

of unusual magnetic strength with many important uses. Stellite alloys, containing cobalt, chromium , and tungsten , are used for high- speed, heavyduty, high temperature cutting tools, and for dies. Cobalt is also used in other magnetic steels and stainless steels, and in alloys used in jet turbines and gas turbine generators. The metal is used in electroplating because of its appearance, hardness, and resistance to oxidation. One of the most well- known synthetic pesticide - DDT is classified as "moderately toxic" by the United States National Toxicology Program (NTP)[45] and "moderately hazardous" by the World Health Organization (WHO), based on the rat oral LD50 of 113 mg/kg.[46] DDT has on rare occasions been administered orally as a treatment for barbiturate poisoning.[47] Used Engine Oil.

Propylene oxide
Safrole
Styrene Tetrachloroethylene
Used primarily as a research chemical; not produced commercially.
Radioactive substance - Polonium has been found in tobacco smoke from tobacco leaves grown with phosphate fertilizers. Radon is also used in the dating of oil- containing soils because radon has a high affinity for oil- like substances. Plastics - Between 60 and 70% of all propylene oxide is converted to polyether polyols for the production of polyurethane plastics.[5] About 20% of propylene oxide is hydrolyzed into propylene glycol, via a process which is accelerated by acid or base catalysis. Other major products are polypropylene glycol, propylene glycols ethers, and propylene carbonate.15 Propylene oxide was once used as a racing fuel, but that usage is now prohibited under the US NHRA rules for safety reasons. It has also been used in glow fuel for model aircraft and surface vehicles, typically combined in small percentages of around 2% as an additive to the typical methanol, nitomethane and oil mix. It is also used in thermobaric weapons, and microbial fumigation. 16 Safrole found in the urine of rats. Safrole is regarded by the U.S. government to be a weak carcinogen in rats.[4] It naturally occurs in a variety of spices such as cinnamon, nutmeg, black pepper and herbs such as basil. In that role safrole is believed, although not proven, to make a small but measurable contribution to the overall incidence of human cancer, equal to the hazards presented by orange juice (due to limonene) and tomatoes (caffeic acid).[5] In the United States, it was once widely used as a food additive in root beer, sassafras tea, and other common goods, but was banned by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) after its carcinogenicity in rats was discovered. Styrene is mainly used in the manufacture of homopolymers and copolymers. Tetrachloroethylene is an excellent solvent for organic materials. Otherwise it is volatile, highly stable, and nonflammable. For these reasons, it is widely used in dry cleaning. Usually as a mixture with other chlorocarbons, it is also used to degrease metal parts in the automotive and other metalworking industries. It appears in a few consumer products including paint strippers and spot removers.18

In order to increase the shelf life of vegetable oils, manufacturers partially hydrogenate them, i.e. heat the oils in the presence of hydrogen and metal catalysts. Hydrogenation saturates fats by adding more hydrogen atoms, thereby increasing their melting point (which makes them good for baking) and prolonging their shelf life. However, this process also creates trans fats, which are neither necessary, nor good for health. Trans fats promote
hydrogenated anything Cakes Most snack foods Certain cereals Commercial granola Canned soups and stews Most salad dressings Pastries made with vegetable shortening Many puddings Sweet breads Muffins Coffee whitener

heart disease by increasing levels of "bad" cholesterol, interrupt metabolic processes, and cause belly fat that crowd the organs and strain the heart. Latest evidence shows that when consumed in excess, trans fats may cause cancers. According to the FDA, trans fat is found in vegetable shortenings, some margarines, crackers, cookies, snack foods, and other foods made with or fried in partially hydrogenated oils. [1]. The American Heart Association recommends limiting the amount of trans fats you eat to less than 1 percent of your total daily calories.30, 31

Genetically Modified Organisms (GMO) Health Impact: YetUnknown. DNA does not always fully break down in the alimentary tract.3,4 Gut bacteria can take up genes and GM plasmids5 and this opens up the possibility of the spread of antibiotic resistance. Insertion of genes into the genome can also result in unintended effects, which need to be reduced/eliminated by selection, since some of the ways the inserted genes express themselves in the host or the way they affect the functioning of the crop’s own genes are unpredictable. This may lead to the development of unknown toxic/allergenic components, which we cannot analyze for and seriously limiting the selection criteria. At the end of the day, we don’t know what we are dealing with. 33 Rapeseed Resistance to certain pesticides and improved rapeseed cultivars to be free of erucic acid and glucosinolates. Gluconsinolates, which were found in rapeseed meal leftover from pressing, are toxic and had prevented the use of the meal in animal feed. In Canada, where "double- zero" rapeseed was developed, the crop was renamed "canola" (Canadian oil) to differentiate it from non- edible rapeseed.34 Honey Honey can be produced from GM crops. Some Canadian honey comes from bees collecting nectar from GM canola plants. This has shut down exports of Canadian honey to Europe. Cotton Resistant to certain pesticides – considered a food because the oil can be consumed. The introduction of genetically engineered cotton plants has had an unexpectedly effect on Chinese agriculture. The so- called Bt cotton plants that produce a chemical that kills the cotton bollworm have not only reduced the incidence of the pest in cotton fields, but also in neighboring fields of corn, soybeans, and other crops. 35 Rice Genetically modified to contain high amounts of Vitamin A. Rice containing human genes is to be grown in the US. Rather than to end up on dinner plates, the rice will make human proteins useful for treating infant diarrhoea in the developing world. 167

Genetically modified to be resistant to herbicides - Soy foods including, soy beverages, tofu, soy oil, soy flour, lecithin. Other products may include breads, pastries, snack foods, baked products, fried products, edible oil products and special purpose foods. Made resistant to certain pesticides. A large percentage of sweeteners used in processed food actually comes from corn, not sugar cane or beets. Genetically modified sugar cane is regarded so badly by consumers at the present time that it could not be marketed successfully. Made for a longer shelf life and to prevent a substance that causes tomatoes to rot and degrade. Resistant to certain pesticides - Corn oil, flour, sugar or syrup. May include snack foods, baked goods, fried foods, edible oil products, confectionery, special purpose foods, and soft drinks. Genetically modified to produces its own insecticide. May include edible oil products, fried foods, and baked products, snack foods. May include snack foods, processed potato products and other processed foods containing potatoes. More and more food products contain flax oil and seed because of their excellent nutritional properties. No genetically modified flax is currently grown. An herbicideresistant GM flax was introduced in 2001, but was soon taken off the market because European importers refused to buy it. The first virus resistant papayas were commercially grown in Hawaii in 1999. Transgenic papayas now cover about one thousand hectares, or three quarters of the total Hawaiian papaya crop. Monsanto, donated technology to Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, Coimbatore, for developing a papaya resistant to the ringspot virus in India. Some zucchini and yellow crookneck squash are also GM but they are not popular with farmers. Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is often made from corn, vitamin E is usually made from soy. Vitamins A, B2, B6, and B12 may be derived from gmos as well as vitamin D and vitamin K may have "carriers" derived from GM corn sources, such as starch, glucose, and maltodextrin.

Nausea and vomiting commonly occur with Cyclophosphamide therapy. Anorexia and, less frequently, abdominal discomfort or pain and diarrhea may occur. 63
Chlorambucil
Toxic - Chlorambucil can severely suppress bone marrow function. Chlorambucil is a carcinogen in humans. Chlorambucil is probably mutagenic and teratogenic in humans. Chlorambucil produces human infertility 63
Melphalan
Toxic - most common side effect is bone marrow suppression leading to leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, and anemia. White blood cell count and platelet count nadirs usually occur 2 to 3 weeks after treatment, with recovery in 4 to 5 weeks after treatment. Irreversible bone marrow failure has been reported. Gastrointestinal disturbances such as nausea and vomiting, diarrhea, and oral ulceration occur infrequently. Hepatic disorders ranging from abnormal liver 222
function tests to clinical manifestations such as hepatitis and jaundice have been reported. Hepatic veno- occlusive disease has been reported. Acute hypersensitivity reactions including anaphylaxis were reported in 2.4% of 425 patients receiving Melphalan Hydrochloride for Injection for myeloma. These reactions were characterized by urticaria, pruritus, edema, skin rashes, and in some patients, tachycardia, bronchospasm, dyspnea, and hypotension. These patients appeared to respond to antihistamine and corticosteroid therapy. If a hypersensitivity reaction occurs, IV or oral Melphalan should not be readministered since hypersensitivity reactions have also been reported with oral Melphalan. Cardiac arrest has also been reported rarely in association with such reports. Other reported adverse reactions include skin hypersensitivity, skin ulceration at injection site, skin necrosis rarely requiring skin grafting, maculopapular rashes, vasculitis, alopecia, hemolytic anemia, allergic reaction, pulmonary fibrosis (including fatal outcomes), and interstitial pneumonitis. Temporary significant elevation of the blood urea has been seen in the early stages of therapy in patients with renal damage. 63 Ifosfamide

Ulrich Abel: A German epidemiologist from the Heidelberg/Mannheim Tumor Clinic, Dr. Ulrich Abel has done a comprehensive review and analysis of every major study and clinical trial of chemotherapy ever done. His conclusions should be read by anyone who is about to embark on the Chemo Express. To make sure he had reviewed everything ever published on chemotherapy, Abel sent letters to over 350 medical centers around the world asking them to send him anything they had published on the subject. Abel researched thousands of articles: it is unlikely that anyone in the world knows more about chemotherapy than he. The analysis took him several years, but the results are astounding: Abel found that the overall worldwide success rate of chemotherapy was "appalling" because there was simply no scientific evidence available anywhere that

chemotherapy can "extend in any appreciable way the lives of patients suffering from the most common organic cancers." Abel emphasizes that chemotherapy rarely can improve the quality of life. He describes chemotherapy as "a scientific wasteland" and states that at least 80 percent of chemotherapy administered throughout the world is worthless, and is akin to the "emperorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new clothes" - neither doctor nor patient is willing to give up on chemotherapy even though there is no scientific evidence that it works! - Lancet 10 Aug 91No mainstream media even mentioned this comprehensive study: it was totally buried.

53. DNA is the critical molecule of life, as it is the blueprint of the creature which is encoded in the genes. DNA happens to be an indispensable part of the cell, as other parts of the cells like the proteins, lipids as well as RNA can be replaced if required but DNA, in case lost or damaged cannot be replaced. Damage of DNA. DNA damage can result in the cell mutating or the cell will die. Thus the genes either change their properties or else they have to cease to exist. The bulk of mutations occurring in the DNA are either harmful or will have no effect. The elements which can harm the DNA and cause mutations are mutagens; and free radicals are the most common form. Other mutagens include compounds of N- nitroso, asbestos, coal tar as well as aldehydes. Most of the mutagens are also carcinogenic. Mutagens constantly attack the DNA on a regular basis. The majorities of mutagens like oxygen free radicals or certain aldehydes are regular by- products of the body’s metabolism and hence cannot be avoided. Other mutagens such as cigarette smoke or acetaldehyde are easier to avoid. Another category of mutagens comes from the pollution in the environment. Different kinds of radiation too can produce mutations. UV radiation primarily affects the eyes as well as the skin. X- Rays are high energy forms of radiation which can cause mutations throughout the body.Damage as well as Repair of DNACross CE, Halliwell B, Borish ET, Pryor WA, Ames BN, Saul RL, McCord JM, Harman D.

Period,", By Physicians For Social Responsibility, Global Research, March 23, 2011, Physicians For Social Responsibility, ABOUT PHYSICIANS FOR SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY (PSR) Founded in 1961 by physicians concerned about the impact of nuclear proliferation, PSR shared the 1985 Nobel Peace Prize with International Physicians for the Prevention of Nuclear War for building public pressure to end the nuclear arms race. Since 1991, when PSR formally expanded its work by creating its environment and health program, PSR has addressed the issues of global warming and the toxic degradation of our environment. PSR educates and advocates for policies to curb global warming, ensure clean air, generate a sustainable energy future, prevent human exposures to toxic substances, and minimize toxic pollution of air, food, and drinking water.

111. Article: The Source of the article is 18 Reasons Why Conventional Cancer Treatment is Insane, by David AuBuchon, Scientific Living – Healing naturally and scientifically, http://scientificliving.net. 112. Fact 1 Approved: "….chemotherapy’s success record is dismal. It can achieve remissions in about 7% of all human cancers; for an additional 15% of cases, survival can be "prolonged" beyond the point at which death would be expected without treatment. This type of survival is not the same as a cure or even restored quality of life." - John Diamond, M.D. 113. Fact 1 Approved: "An investigation by the Department of Radiation Oncology, Northern Sydney Cancer Centre, Australia, into the contribution of chemotherapy to 5- year survival in 22 major adult malignancies, showed startling results: The overall contribution of curative and adjuvant cytotoxic chemotherapy to 5- year survival in adults was estimated to be 2.3% in Australia and 2.1% in the USA." NaturalNew.com, citing:—Royal North Shore Hospital Clin Oncol (R Coll Radiol) 2005 Jun;17(4):294. 114. Fact 2 Approved: "With some cancers, notably liver, lung, pancreas, bone and advanced breast, our 5 year survival from traditional therapy alone is virtually the same as it was 30 years ago." - P Quillin, Ph.D. 115. Fact 2 Approved: "1.7% increase in terms of success rate a year, its nothing. By the time we get to the 24th century we might have effective treatments, Star Trek will be long gone by that time."- Ralph Moss. 116. Fact 4 Approved: The term "success rate" refers to the patient surviving beyond 5 years. This does not say anything about the quality of life after those 5 years or the quality of life during those 5 years while undergoing and recovering from the toxic effects of chemotherapy. 117. Fact 4 Approved: "Children who are successfully treated for Hodgkin’s disease are 18 times more likely later to develop secondary malignant tumors. Girls face a 35 per cent chance of developing breast cancer by the time they are 40—which is 75 times greater than the average. The risk of leukemia increased markedly four years after the ending of successful treatment, and reached a plateau after 14 years, but the risk of developing solid tumors remained high and approached 30 per cent at 30 years." —New Eng J Med, March 21, 1996 118. Fact 4 Approved: "As a chemist trained to interpret data, it is incomprehensible to me that physicians can ignore the clear evidence that chemotherapy does much, much more harm than good."—Alan Nixon, Ph.D., Past President, American Chemical Society. 119. Fact 4 Approved: "A study of over 10,000 patients shows clearly that chemo’s supposedly strong track record with Hodgkin’s disease (lymphoma) is actually a lie. Patients who underwent chemo were 14 times more likely to develop leukemia and 6 times more likely to develop cancers of the bones, joints, and soft tissues than those patients who did not undergo chemotherapy (NCI Journal 87:10)." —John Diamond 120. Fact 4 Approved: "Most cancer patients in this country die of chemotherapy…Chemotherapy does not eliminate breast, colon or lung cancers. This fact has been documented for over a decade. Yet doctors still use chemotherapy for these tumors…Women with breast cancer are likely to die faster with chemo than without it." —Alan Levin, M.D. 121. Fact 5 Approved: Studies support the view that many early cancers spontaneously go away. More frequent screening for certain types of cancer has lead to more detections (and subsequent treatments), but has not lead to decreases in corresponding late stage cancers. If those early detections were likely to become late stage cancer eventually, then the number of late stage cases should have decreased. This demonstrates that a significant amount
236
of early stage treatment is not actually needed. In these cases, people are weakening their bodies with toxic therapies unnecessarily. by David AuBuchon, The Source of the article is 18 Reasons Why Conventional Cancer Treatment is Insane 122. Fact 6 Approved: s seen in Reason # 4, conventional treatment can actually increase recurrence of cancer. Removing cancer cells does nothing to correct the terrain which allowed it to appear in the first place. In fact, it makes the terrain even worse. The term "oncologist" implies you understand the physiology of tumors. This is actually an improper use of the title as oncologists are usually in fact "chemotherapists". Countless lifestyle, diet, and environmental causes of cancer have been identified. The onset of the cancer epidemic has been so sudden that it cannot be anything other than predominantly an environmental illness. Seeing how this is basically a widely accepted fact, it makes no sense that mainstream oncology does almost nothing to help patients reverse these causes, even though countless therapies have been proven safe and effective at doing so. (by David AuBuchon, The Source of the article is 18 Reasons Why Conventional Cancer Treatment is Insane) 123. Fact 7 Approved: Chemotherapy statistics are designed to be misleading. This topic is so large that I had to write a separate article just on it. A few simple mathematical "parlor tricks" have succeeded in misleading doctors as a whole, who unfortunately are not all that well prepared to understand and interpret statistics. (by David AuBuchon, The Source of the article is 18 Reasons Why Conventional Cancer Treatment is Insane) 124. Fact 8 Approved: It is a true statement that few alternatives have been "proven" by large controlled studies. However, there is plenty of evidence that many of these alternatives "might" work. Countless substances have shown effectiveness against cancer and lack of toxicity in animal studies and in many other ways. The doctor’s job is to get you well. After conventional treatment fails, if doctors can throw 50 things at you that are safe, each of which "might" work (even though none of them have been "proven"), then why don’t they do it? (by David AuBuchon, The Source of the article is 18 Reasons Why Conventional Cancer Treatment is Insane) 125. Fact 9 Approved: Many "terminal" cancer patients who are placed on hospice end up recovering from alternative treatments tried on their own. However, no organization documents what these patients did to recover prior to being removed from hospice. (by David AuBuchon, The Source of the article is 18 Reasons Why Conventional Cancer Treatment is Insane) 126. Fact 10 Approved: Cancer doctors almost never call alternative doctors when their patients somehow recover with their help. Nor do they call patients when they recover and are removed from hospice. If you are a physician who has supposedly dedicated your life to helping people with cancer, and you do not follow up on patients that actually do get well, then many may truly view your behavior as questionable. (by David AuBuchon, The Source of the article is 18 Reasons Why Conventional Cancer Treatment is Insane) 127. Fact 11 Approved: There are some contraindications between supplements and chemotherapy. Two examples are glutathione and NAC when receiving treatment with a platinum agent. There are probably others. The fear is that supplements may decrease the effect of the chemotherapy or perhaps stress the body’s detoxification capacity with chemotherapy given simultaneously. (by David AuBuchon, The Source of the article is 18 Reasons Why Conventional Cancer Treatment is Insane) 128. Fact 12 Approved: The last time I was in a chemotherapy ward, all the patients (many of whom looked sickly from treatment) were served artificially sweetened fruit juice. Aside from sugar being shown to hurt your body in 146
237
different ways, it is especially bad for cancer, since sugar accelerates cancer metabolism. This activity is mediated by insulin. This observation has been so powerful that this precise weakness has even led to targeted forms of chemotherapy such as insulin potentiation therapy and certain sugar- coated chemotherapy drugs. If a person is being fed intravenously during treatment, they are basically getting fed Ensure, which has such a high sugar content that it is often necessary to give the patient an injection of insulin to control blood sugar levels. This preferentially drives sugar into cancer cells, and aids cancer metabolism. (by David AuBuchon, The Source of the article is 18 Reasons Why Conventional Cancer Treatment is Insane) 129. Fact 13 Approved: According to one survey published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology in 1987, 81% of cancer specialists would not consent to a drug trial due to the ineffectiveness of chemotherapy and its unacceptable degree of toxicity. There are many reasons not to enroll in clinical trials, the most significant reason being death from the disease. Patients are viewed as participants, and not as human beings who need individualized care. Any treatment received in a clinical trial is experimental. Clinical trials are no more scientific than the realm of alternative treatments. (by David AuBuchon, The Source of the article is 18 Reasons Why Conventional Cancer Treatment is Insane) 130. Fact 14: If you have terminal cancer, IV vitamins and minerals won’t save your life. But it can make you feel better. Terminal patients can get blood transfusions, but why not any other type of therapy that can help to renormalize body chemistry? One example is that swelling in cancer is often caused by a deficiency in a protein called albumin. Tremendous relief can be gained by IV administration of this substance. Patients do not get the best palliative care because of cost. Narcotics are cheap. They also have been proven to disable your immune system and hasten death. Conventional hospice and palliative care is designed to help you die quickly and affordably. (by David AuBuchon, The Source of the article is 18 Reasons Why Conventional Cancer Treatment is Insane) 131. Fact 15 Approved: Many alternative treatments are clearly superior to chemotherapy. However, one alternative is particularly insulting to chemotherapy because of the fact that it is chemotherapy. Insulin potentiation therapy uses low dose chemotherapy with insulin to selectively target chemotherapy drugs to cancer cells. The result is better cancer killing effects per treatment, little to no side effects, and ability to treat multiple times per week. This leads to a safe and far more aggressive cancer killing chemotherapy when compared to conventional chemotherapy. Despite the wealth of evidence surrounding this therapy, it has simply been ignored. (by David AuBuchon, The Source of the article is 18 Reasons Why Conventional Cancer Treatment is Insane) 132. Fact 16 Approved: "We have a multi- billion dollar industry that is killing people, right and left, just for financial gain. Their idea of research is to see whether two doses of this poison is better than three doses of that poison." — Glen Warner, M.D. oncologist. 133. Fact 16 Approved: "Finding a cure for cancer is absolutely contraindicated by the profits of the cancer industry’s chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery cash trough."—Dr Diamond, M.D. (by David AuBuchon, The Source of the article is 18 Reasons Why Conventional Cancer Treatment is Insane) 134. Fact 17 Approved: For many major cancer charities, on the order of only 10% of donations go towards funding actual programs. The rest goes towards marketing, promotion, and administration. Many instances of embezzlement have also been exposed. Your donation could be giving a CEO a bonus. In addition, many funded programs do
238
nothing but perpetuate the unsuccessful cancer treatments of conventional medicine. (by David AuBuchon, The Source of the article is 18 Reasons Why Conventional Cancer Treatment is Insane) 135. Fact 18 Approved: Chemotherapy is undeniably harmful (see Reason # 4). In some cases, it may not cause much harm. But in many, it becomes a sad and tragic affair. Would drugs as toxic as chemotherapy ever be approved by the FDA in any other context? (by David AuBuchon, The Source of the article is 18 Reasons Why Conventional Cancer Treatment is Insane) 136.

Appendix: List of Carcinogens 1.

Peter Havasi:
Biography
"Only freedom from prejudice and tireless zeal avail for the most holy of the endeavours of mankind, the practice of the true art of healing." - Samuel Hahnemann, Founder of Homeopathy (1755- 1843) 244
Peter Havasi (Nutr.Th, Herb.Th, Irid, Acu, Natur, Hom, Aura, Itec, Bsy) is an independent cancer researcher, historian, speaker, health educator, life-strategist and martial artist. Thomas A. Edison said, "The doctor of the future will give no medicine, but will interest his or her patients in the care of the human frame, in a proper diet, and in the cause and prevention of disease." In the early years of life he witnessed how his close family members suffered from cancer epidemics. Watching them die slowly in agony, this experience left deep marks in both his heart and soul. Peter Havasi: "There is nothing more important in the world today than to be openminded, reading between the lines, questioning facts, cultivating the big picture perspective and always looking outside of the box. My concept of freedom, wealth and happiness is based on searching for ways how to build physical, emotional and spiritual strengths as well as cultivate an independent mindset. This is what I truly believe in!" Without hesitation, he dropped the world of finance and swapped it for professional sports career and travelling. As a professional mountain- bike guide, he passionately tamed many mountain tracks in various places of the Mediterranean. A fast-paced modern lifestyle didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t last for long. After few years the health destructive lifestyle began to reflect itself in forms of various health problems.
245
Finding out that his condition falls into the same category as CANCER, he soon realized that his own health faces the same journey downhill towards the same slaughterhouse his close relatives experienced. Throughout his sports career, Peter’s frame of mind changed into a warrior attitude challenging everything beyond its reach. Peter got the message loud and clear, and he saw gaining his health back another SPORTS CHALLENGE. In a split of a second he threw his career and immediately swapped it for a long and intense healing crusade, exploring ways how to heal diseases, BUILD POWERFUL HEALTH and WIN HIS LIFE BACK. Peter Havasi: "I have always wanted to make something big out of my life. Riding bikes day and night, testing your own boundaries sounds like fun, but there is more than that! At some stage I came to a point, that… it is finding the STRENGTH to face the deepest fears, what makes a man’s life truly BIG!" Peter obtained the knowledge and skills in many healing arts specializing in cancer and other modern epidemics. Among others, Peter got certified in Herbal Healing Arts, Nutritional Healing Arts, Naturopathy, Iridology, Acupressure and Massage, Homeopathy, and Yoga and Pilates. Peter is also a certified Fitness Coach specializing in High- Intensity Excercise. On top of natural healing, Peter also became a student of several martial arts, practicing them daily. His work is based on cancer research, selfpublishing and public education. Peter Havasi: "I see the art of natural healing as the most self-oriented form of martial arts. Even on different levels, both develop strength, power, integrity, toughness, coordination, speed, and balance – amongst others. Both cultivate a powerful character 246
based on discipline, prediction, responsibility, respect, honorâ&#x20AC;Ś you name it. From my perspective, arts of healing and arts of fighting are ONE and the same." Peter believes that if you learn how to prevent cancer, you will learn how to heal and prevent many other problems which became our modern epidemics. Throughout the healing crusade, Peter explored all possible methods of supporting the body, mind and spirit by natural NOURISHING, CLEANSING, REBALANCING, and STRENGTHENING. Beside strong health followed by endless discipline and passion, Peter also strongly believes in FREEDOM, TRUTH and JUSTICE. With his book series, he shows that the world does possess adequate information resources to PREVENT and HEAL CANCER efficiently with the help of safe natural alternatives. Peter is not afraid to challenge and reveal thousands of studies, bring dead cancer healers back to life, and share their healing stories with YOU. He has led a rebellious, crusading, sacrificing and colorful life to bring the truth into the light. Not many professionals would dare put their professional, financial and social reputations on the line as many times as this courageous maverick has. Peter reveals medical truths and deceptions, often at risk of being labeled heretical. He is driven by passion for living a long and powerful life and wants his readers to share that passion. Their health and well- being comes first. Peter is antidogmatic and unwavering in his dedication to improve the quality of life of his readers. He has repeatedly gone far beyond the call of duty in his work to spread the truth about the history of cancer healing. For several years, he endured economic and physical and social hardship to research independently the history of alternative cancer healing. 247
This learning experience, not to mention his dynamic story telling ability and wit, makes his books uniquely interesting and easy to read. He shares his open-minded opinion to health care, often amazing his readers by telling them how to jumpstart the powers of natural healing and make them work for them. With his work, Peter brings a natural ALTERNATIVE to hospitals, medical doctors, butchery, chemical drugs, and personal physical, emotional and financial bankruptcy caused by our system of disease management. The authorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s personal commitment is to integrate an alternative among standardized dysfunction of chronic diseases with medical doctors, drugs and agonizing surgical operations. Peter dedicated his professional life to building and integrating his practice of health enhancement amongst those who are interested. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s called "Building POWERFUL HEALTH", also known as HAVASI LIFE BUILDING. In comparison to the standard treatment, HAVASI Life Building is more fun, far less costly, and it allows you to live your life to the fullest potential!
