 Since the Dark Ages when 
			
			the black plague swept through Europe, few 
			diseases in human history have elicited such a deadly combination of 
			fear and ignorance.
 
			  
			In this modern age full 
			of the wonders of technology, cancer is our greatest fear, and our 
			greatest unknown. A UK poll found the highest percentage of 
			respondents, one in five, feared cancer over anything else, 
			including Alzheimer's, heart attack, or job loss.  
			  
			Even more disturbing, 
			fully a third believed whether they got cancer or not was up to 
			fate, that there was nothing they could do to reduce the risk.
 
			  
			  
			A foundation 
			of sand
 
			To exacerbate the problem, a recent Reuters article admits that 
			recent cancer research is unreliable at best, if not completely 
			fraudulent.
 
			  
			C. Glenn Begley, 
			former head of global cancer research at Amgen Inc., chose 53 
			'landmark' publications for his team to double-check and build on 
			for future drug development. Out of the original 53, he was only 
			able to replicate six.  
			  
			Scientists at Bayer 
			conducted a similar project and were only able to reproduce less 
			than a quarter of the 47 cancer projects they had previously 
			conducted.  
			  
			Begley wrote in the 
			journal Nature, 
				
				"It was shocking. 
				These are the studies the pharmaceutical industry relies on to 
				identify new targets for drug development. But if you're going 
				to place a $1 million or $2 million or $5 million bet on an 
				observation, you need to be sure it's true. As we tried to 
				reproduce these papers we became convinced you can't take 
				anything at face value." 
			Meanwhile, the 
			pharmaceutical industry, always looking to profit from the public's 
			fear and ignorance, continues to develop cancer drugs, usually based 
			on fewer than half a dozen research publications that are 
			pseudo-scientific at best.  
			  
			Then, the 
			
			Big 
			Medical/Big Government mafia continues to play God by pushing these 
			'treatments' on sick people as if they are the only option.
 97 percent of cancer research money goes into treatments and early 
			detection, while the other 3 percent is invested in fighting the 
			causes of cancer. Logic dictates that to truly fight a disease, the 
			cause should be removed. A great example of this is the Western 
			cholera epidemic of the 1800s. With no knowledge of germs or 
			antibiotics, the problem was traced to what seemed to be the most 
			logical cause, contaminated water sources.
 
			  
			Once these were removed, 
			the cholera receded. Dr. David Servan-Schreiber, a founding 
			board member of Doctors Without Borders, wrote, 
				
				"It is ironic to 
				think that if we had had antibiotics at the time, and had 
				counted on them to deal with the disease as we count today on 
				anticancer treatments, we might never have controlled cholera." 
			Unfortunately today's 
			powers-that-be aren't moved by logic, only profit. 
			It doesn't take a pharmaceutical rep or a rocket scientist to 
			understand that cancer is caused by environmental factors. The most 
			common cancers are far more prevalent in the West, not Asia, yet 
			when Asians move here they are just as prone.
 
			  
			It is true that cancer 
			runs in families, except that adopted children often share the 
			cancer of their adoptive, not biological parents.  
			  
			People who eat or avoid 
			specific foods are more or less prone to cancer, as are those 
			exposed to certain chemicals for certain lengths of time. 
				
					
					
					If cancer 
			is caused by environmental factors, could it not be cured removing 
			those factors and giving the body's immune system the nutrients it 
			needs to fight off the cancer?
					
					It may not be as 
			profitable, but might it save more lives? 
			The foundation of the modern cancer industrial complex is built on 
			sand, and it's starting to crumble. And now, 
			
			the mainstream media 
			has openly admitted that the research the pharmaceutical companies 
			rely on can no longer be trusted.
 How long before the public wakes up?
