American Cancer Society opposes vitamin D
This research on vitamin D is such good news that the american cancer society, of course, had to say something against it. An ACS spokesperson, Marji McCullough, strategic director of nutritional epidemiology for the american cancer society, flatly stated that nobody should take supplements to prevent cancer.
If it seems surprising to you that the american cancer society -- which claims to be against cancer -- would dissuade people from taking supplements that slash their cancer risk by 77 percent, then you don't know much about the ACS. |

Now, let's say you have a disease organization like the american cancer society -- wouldn't it be great if the american cancer society had as its mission the curing of cancer, and then it would self-destruct? That's what it should be, but I don't think that's part of the articles of the non-profit incorporation for the american cancer society. I think this organization and all the other disease organizations out there are really just perpetuating their own existence, and if you are a disease organization, you do that by perpetuating the disease. |

Questionable ethics at the American Cancer Society
In a scandal that sounds eerily similar to the one carried out by the American Heart Association, the american cancer society accepted $1 million dollars from SmithKline Beecham in exchange for permission to use the American Cancer Society's name and logo to promote the sale of nicotine patches and gum. The problem is that the ACS did not conduct any clinical research demonstrating SKB's nicotine patch was better than any other patch. In addition, SKB then marketed these ACS-branded products in a way that state Attorneys General said, "... |

In my opinion, the ACS is an organization that actually prevents prevention and openly supports the continuation of cancer as a way to boost its power and profits. |

Amazingly, the american cancer society appears to have no interest in vitamin D. How could it be that this cancer-centric non-profit wouldn't be interested in a free therapy that could eliminate up to three-fourths of all future cancers? Shouldn't this be the No. 1 headline around the world during breast cancer awareness month? Shouldn't the ACS be screaming this fact to anyone who will listen?
But of course not. In my opinion, the american cancer society has no interest whatsoever in actually preventing cancer. |

A publication by the american cancer society called "The American Cancer Society's Guide to Complementary and Alternative Cancer Methods" says that ellagic acid is a very promising natural supplement because it causes apoptosis (cell death) of cancer cells in the lab, with no change to healthy, normal cells. Here's how it works: Healthy cells have a normal life cycle of approximately 120 days before they die. This process is called apoptosis (natural cell death). The body replaces the dying cells with healthy cells, and life goes on. But with cancer cells, no such luck. |

American Cancer Society stubbornly refuse to acknowledge the benefits of vitamin D supplements in cancer prevention, the Canadian Cancer Society is launching a program to make sure every Canadian citizen receives a level of vitamin D sufficient to prevent most cancers, including breast cancer.
The U.S., in contrast, has no interest in preventing cancer... even when a simple, virtually free substance like vitamin D could drop national cancer rates by more than 75 percent. |
| If vitamin D were a cancer drug made by Pfizer, the american cancer society would likely be pushing it as the next "miracle" drug and calling for everyone to be put on the drug. But since it's a nutrient that cannot be patented, and can actually be manufactured for free by exposing your skin to natural sunlight, the entire U.S. cancer industry now laughingly pretends that vitamin D supplementation offers no benefits. |

Researchers at the University of Washington directly irradiate the testes of 232 prison inmates in order to determine radiation's effects on testicular function. When these inmates later leave prison and have children, at least four have babies born with birth defects. The exact number is unknown because researchers never follow up on the men to see the long-term effects of their experiment (Goliszek). |

Each day that the american cancer society, the AMA, the FDA and others in conventional medicine refuse to acknowledge the benefits of vitamin D supplements for preventing cancer, they lose yet more credibility and slip one step closer towards global humiliation and irrelevance. It is difficult to imagine how anyone from conventional medicine can show up at a health event and say, with a straight face, that they're doing everything they can to fight cancer when in reality they are willfully ignoring a prevention medicine that really works: Vitamin D. |
| New research published this month shows that vitamin D supplementation produces an astonishing 77 percent reduction in all cancers in women, making it the single most effective medicine for preventing cancer that has ever been discovered by modern medical science. The american cancer society, however, seems stuck in the nutritional dogma of the 1950's and continues to claim that only drugs, radiation and surgery can treat cancer, and that nutritional supplements have no role to play whatsoever in cancer prevention. |

The industry, in fact, takes steps to interfere with prevention efforts and thereby ensure the growth in the number of future cancer patients.
The american cancer society, for example, still will not recommend that anyone take vitamin D supplements, even though the vitamin can prevent nearly 4 out of 5 cancers. The cancer industry simply has no interest in preventing cancer. It is only interested in treating cancer and profiting from those treatments. (That's why genuine cancer cures have been routinely suppressed, censored or discredited in the United States. |

In SiCKO, what Moore does very effectively is tells this story to a mass audience, weaving together the emotionally-charged stories of American citizens who lost husbands, daughters and other family members to preventable disease, all thanks to intentional, well-planned payment denials by health insurance companies. |

If the american cancer society declared that sunlight caused cancer and that the citizens should avoid sunlight and cover their skin with toxic chemical creams to block out the sun, the press would gladly run with that story, too. Come to think of it, they already have: That's the story on sunscreen, and just about everything you read in the mainstream media about sunlight and sunscreen is blatantly false.
There are so many falsehoods routinely printed in the mainstream media these days that it has become a rarity to find any piece of truth. |

Fighting to prevent cancer prevention
It is interesting to note that with all the toxic chemicals found in personal care products these days, the american cancer society has actually fought laws and initiatives that would have helped prevent cancer. As Samuel Epstein explains on www.PreventCancer.org, "The ACS has a longstanding track record of indifference and even hostility to cancer prevention. This is particularly disturbing in view of the escalating incidence of cancer now striking one in two men and one in three women in their lifetimes. |
| The american cancer society, on the other hand, takes all sorts of money from companies that profit from cancer. Some might argue that's why the ACS -- often called the wealthiest non-profit in the world -- seems to have no interest in actually preventing the disease, but rather focuses on "recruiting" more women into conventional cancer treatments that earn billions of dollars in profits for their primary financial supporters.
Breast Cancer Action has an important message for consumers: Think Before You Pink. |
| The single most powerful anti-cancer nutrient known to modern science -- one that helps halt the growth of virtually all tumors in the body while reducing breast cancer risk by 77 percent -- isn't on the American Cancer Society's list! (See our article reporting this finding at http://www.newstarget.com/021892.html )
Has the ACS failed to read the research on this nutrient? Could the most miraculous anti-cancer nutrient known to modern science have somehow slipped by the astute scientists at the ACS? |

It then donates a portion of that money to the cancer industry through non-profit groups like the american cancer society which, in turn, run heart-breaking public service ads urging people to use sunscreen to "prevent cancer."
The scientific evidence, however, shows quite clearly that sunscreen actually promotes cancer by blocking the body's absorption of ultraviolet radiation, which produces vitamin D in the skin. Vitamin D, as recent studies have shown, prevents up to 77 of ALL cancers in women (breast cancer, colon cancer, cervical cancer, lung cancer, brain tumors, multiple myeloma... |

According to the american cancer society, up to 35 percent of the 900,000 new cases of cancer each year in the United States could be prevented by following proper dietary recommendation. Researcher Rollo Russell writes in his Notes on the Causation of Cancer: "I have found of twenty-five nations eating flesh largely, nineteen had a high cancer rate and only one had a low rate, and that of thirty-five nations eating little or no flesh, none of these had a high rate."

It is surprising that the american cancer society has not conducted any research to determine the effectiveness of the macrobiotic diet.
A report in the Journal of Nutrition indicates a macrobiotic diet lowers estrogen levels in females which may be beneficial in reducing the risk for breast cancer, and that overall, "on the basis of available evidence and its similarity to dietary recommendations for chronic disease prevention, the macrobiotic diet probably carries a reduced cancer risk. |

Cancer repair shop
Imagine you take your car to the repair shop. The mechanic flushes the carburetor, replaces the muffler and some exhaust valves, and charges the battery. But when you place the key in the ignition, the car doesn't start. This is pretty much what the cancer industry is doing. Replacing parts, treating the body, and showing some numbers improved. That is all. Would you pay for repairs that don't work? |

The EPA says: "Although some scientists dispute the precise number of deaths due to radon, all the major health organizations (like the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the American Lung Association and the American Medical Association) agree with estimates that radon causes thousands of preventable lung cancer deaths every year. |
| To recall, the american cancer society continues to assert that cancer is not contagious, yet there is little argument today that certain forms of cancer are caused by bacteria or viruses. Cancer researchers continue to claim the cause of cancer is unknown, or that there are so many causes or locations for cancer that it is hundreds of diseases and its origin cannot be determined.
Cantwell says the link between cancer and microbes escapes discovery because microbiologists like to classify germs by their shape, size, staining ability, etc. |

Unfortunately, neither question can be answered at this point in time.
The american cancer society and the American Urological Association still recommend an annual digital exam, beginning at age 40. These organizations also recommend an annual PSA for men over 50 (age 40 for African-American men)—at an estimated cost of $12 to $28 billion per year. The 1996 Task Force is more cautious, appropriately it seems to us, giving both procedures a grade of "D" for annual screening. "There is no evidence," they conclude, "that screening for prostate cancer results in reduced mortality or morbidity. |

In my opinion, the american cancer society has no interest whatsoever in actually preventing cancer. In my view, it is only interested in promoting the screening and treatment of cancer because that's what makes money for the financial supporters of the ACS. In fact, the ACS recently restructured its own priorities to focus more on screening and treatment, and less on cancer prevention.
What's missing from the risk factors list?
Hilariously, the ACS now says there are only four major modifiable risk factors that impact your risk of breast cancer. |
