The American Cancer Society (ACS) was back in the news this month when they disputed the findings of the President's Cancer Panel on the role of toxins in causing cancer.

The Author Points Out.....

The scope of the ACS failure to act is illustrated by increases in a wide range of cancers, including:

Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma has increased 76 percent mostly due to phenoxy herbicides and phenylenediamine hair dyes.

Testicular cancer has increased by 49 percent due to pesticides, harmful ingredients in personal care products and estrogen residues in meat.

Malignant melanoma has increased by 168 percent due to the use of toxic sunscreen products that fail to block long wave ultraviolet light.

Thyroid cancer has increased by 124 percent due in large part to ionizing radiation.

Childhood leukemia has increased by 55 percent due to ionizing radiation, domestic pesticides, nitrite preservatives in meats and parental exposures to occupational carcinogens.

Ovarian cancer (mortality) for women over the age of 65 has increased by 47 percent in African American women and 13 percent in Caucasian women due largely to genital use of talc powder.

Breast cancer has increased 17 percent due to a wide range of factors including birth control pills, estrogen replacement therapy, ingredients in cosmetics and personal care products, and mammogram and other diagnostic radiation.

Don't you know that people who find cancer cures either get killed, dis-credited and/or go to jail?

I think we ought to also see if having high dollar insurance has anything to do with who gets dianosed with cancer.

17,000 people died last year without insurance while the other 350,000 people who died had insurance.

It obviously dangerous to go to the doctor or the hospital, especially if you have insurance.

remember 'Dead Doctors Don't Lie'? whether you buy the guy's supplements or not, he makes sense.

case in point, re: dangerous doctors, me. diagnosed w/ diabetes 2, specialist put me on Avandament, even with the warnings, and my feet and legs began to swell. wouldn't take me off it, so had to go to another doctor to get metformin instead. took over 6 months before the swellings stopped. i coulda died if I stayed with that 'expert'.

Or have to go to countries that care about people instead of Corporations.

I would love to see that in a headline:)

but of course........ it is the element of many a debate as to 'good' things that came out of experimentation.

i myself would prefer to die then use any part of those findings. some call me crazy....... i howver, know who is insane and how they pass that ailment on.:)

I have a friend whose husband had breast cancer. He is fine now but must take a certain medicine for the next 5 years. The insurance company only allows them 1 bottle at a time. Her husband spends many weekends at their hunting camp so she wanted two bottles. One for home and one for the camp. She used insurance for one and paid for the other.

Her deductible on this med through the insurance is 20.00. Guess what. She paid her deductible on the one, and 12.00 for her out of pocket! No joke.
