Cancer
If you or someone you love has cancer, please contact me to obtain additional information about a new cure I stumbled upon while reading an editorial and article in one of the many journals I read. The editor said there is good evidence that this new treatment works, and that it truly cures cancer — not just temporarily treating it, as so many cancer therapies do. However, he lamented that the cure is being overlooked, which he felt stemmed from the fact that there isn't any way for pharmaceutical companies to profit from it.
When I was an idealistic medical student, I wholeheartedly believed that doctors always did what is best for their patients. I have since realized that while most doctors mean well, they are almost invariably brainwashed by the pharmaceutical industry, whose tactics of indoctrination go far beyond drug ads and countless freebies for physicians.
Contrary to what drug companies tell you in their ads, helping you is NOT their #1 goal. Their foremost goal is profits, and they spend many millions of dollars every year on lobbyists in Washington who work hard persuading (and bribing) Congressmen to pass legislation that makes you pay more for drugs and limits your freedom, such as by trying to keep you from purchasing lower-cost drugs in Canada.
It is natural to be skeptical of anything that purports to be a cancer cure because hucksters have touted many worthless "cures" for years. However, there is solid science behind this. If you've read my Fascinating Health Secrets book, you know that I believe in some alternative treatments (primarily ones involving good nutrition), yet I think that most alternative therapies are worthless scams devised by people who are scientifically clueless or unethical and greedy. I thought that every alternative cancer treatment was hogwash until I stumbled upon this one. What's different about this treatment is that it involves the action of a drug in a way that specifically targets one of the central defects in cancer cells. In other words, it makes scientific sense, unlike other alternative treatments that do not.
