World Without Cancer

1. Cancer as a Nutritional Deficiency: A Paradigm Shift

The purpose of this book is to marshal the evidence that cancer is a nutritional-deficiency disease.

Challenging the Conventional View. The book posits that cancer is not a mysterious disease caused by bacteria, viruses, or toxins, but rather a nutritional deficiency, akin to scurvy or pellagra. This perspective suggests that restoring a missing element to our diet could be key to both preventing and treating cancer. This theory offers a hopeful alternative to the often harsh and ineffective conventional treatments.

Historical Parallels. The author draws parallels to historical medical errors, such as the initial rejection of vitamin C as a cure for scurvy. Just as sailors once died needlessly due to a lack of understanding about nutrition, modern society may be overlooking a simple solution to cancer in the form of a readily available nutrient. This historical context underscores the importance of open-mindedness and challenges the medical establishment's resistance to unconventional approaches.

The Missing Nutrient. The book identifies this missing nutrient as part of the nitriloside family, particularly prevalent in the seeds of fruits like apricots, as well as in certain grasses and other foods. These sources of nitrilosides have largely been removed from modern diets, potentially contributing to the rise in cancer rates. This dietary shift is presented as a critical factor in understanding and addressing the disease.

2. The Politics of Cancer: Suppressed Science and Vested Interests

The result is that the politics of cancer therapy is more complicated than the science.

Money and Power. The book argues that the cancer industry, with its billions of dollars in research funding and drug sales, has a vested interest in maintaining the status quo. A simple, inexpensive cure like a vitamin could disrupt this lucrative industry, leading to resistance from those who profit from conventional treatments. This creates a conflict of interest that hinders the exploration and acceptance of alternative therapies.

Dishonesty in Research. The author highlights instances of dishonesty and corruption in drug research, including the suppression of unfavorable data and the manipulation of clinical trials. This raises serious questions about the integrity of the scientific process and the reliability of studies used to discredit alternative treatments like Laetrile. Examples include:

• FDA agents writing false letters for doctors to sign
• Suppressed lab reports from Sloan-Kettering Institute

The Watergate Syndrome. The book draws a parallel to the Watergate scandal, suggesting that government officials and medical experts may be withholding the truth about cancer treatments to protect their own interests. This comparison underscores the need for skepticism and independent investigation when evaluating information from authoritative sources.

3. Laetrile/Vitamin B17: Nature's Controversial Answer

If the solution should be found in a simple vitamin, this gigantic industry could be wiped out overnight.

What is Laetrile? Laetrile, also known as vitamin B17 or amygdalin, is a naturally occurring compound found in the seeds of many fruits, particularly apricots. The book presents Laetrile as a key component in the nutritional approach to cancer prevention and treatment. It is proposed that Laetrile works by selectively targeting and destroying cancer cells while leaving healthy cells unharmed.

How Laetrile Works. The book explains that Laetrile contains cyanide, but in a bound form that is only released at the cancer cell site due to the presence of a specific enzyme, beta-glucosidase. This enzyme is abundant in cancer cells but scarce in healthy cells, leading to a targeted release of cyanide that destroys the malignant cells. A second enzyme, rhodanese, protects healthy cells by neutralizing any stray cyanide.

The Cyanide Scare. The book addresses concerns about cyanide toxicity, arguing that Laetrile is less toxic than sugar when used properly. It cites clinical evidence and historical data to support the safety of Laetrile, emphasizing that the cyanide is only released at the cancer cell site and is neutralized by the body's natural defenses. The book also points out that many common foods contain cyanide compounds, but are not considered dangerous when consumed in moderation.

4. The Trophoblast Theory: Understanding Cancer's True Nature

WORLD WITHOUT CANCER blazes the trail into unexplored territory and reveals how science has been subverted to protect entrenched commercial interests.

Cancer as Misplaced Healing. The book explains the trophoblast thesis, which views cancer cells as similar to trophoblast cells, which are normal in early pregnancy. These cells have the ability to rapidly grow and invade tissues, but are normally controlled by the body's defense mechanisms. Cancer, according to this theory, is a result of these cells growing unchecked outside of pregnancy.

The Role of Pancreatic Enzymes. The book emphasizes the importance of pancreatic enzymes, particularly trypsin and chymotrypsin, in controlling trophoblast cells. These enzymes digest the protective protein coat surrounding the cancer cells, making them vulnerable to the body's immune system. A deficiency in these enzymes, or a blockage preventing them from reaching the cancer cells, can contribute to uncontrolled growth.

Estrogen and Cancer. The book discusses the role of estrogen in stimulating trophoblast activity. It suggests that excessive exposure to estrogen, either through synthetic hormones or environmental factors, can increase the risk of cancer. This highlights the importance of hormonal balance and avoiding unnecessary exposure to estrogen-like compounds.

5. Global Perspectives: Lessons from Cancer-Free Cultures

This is an exciting theory. It holds the promise for a world without cancer now, not at some distant point in the future.

The Hunza People. The book highlights the Hunza people of the Himalayas, who are known for their longevity and virtual absence of cancer. Their traditional diet is rich in nitrilosides, particularly from apricot seeds, which are a staple food. This example suggests that a diet high in nitrilosides may offer significant protection against cancer.

Eskimos and Native Americans. The book also mentions the traditional diets of Eskimos and Native Americans, which are rich in nitrilosides from various sources. These populations also had low rates of cancer until they adopted Westernized diets. This further supports the link between nitriloside consumption and cancer prevention.

Dietary Changes and Cancer Rates. The book notes that when these populations abandon their traditional diets and adopt Westernized foods, their cancer rates increase dramatically. This underscores the importance of diet in cancer prevention and suggests that modern processed foods may be contributing to the rise in cancer rates.

6. The Cartel Connection: Power, Control, and Cancer Therapy

It delivers the kind of impact that could topple an empire; and perhaps it will.

I.G. Farben's Influence. The book delves into the history of I.G. Farben, a German chemical and pharmaceutical cartel that played a significant role in the rise of Nazi Germany. It argues that this cartel, through its control of key industries and its influence over government policies, has shaped the landscape of modern medicine, including cancer therapy.

American Cartel Partners. The book reveals the cartel's extensive connections to American companies, including DuPont, Standard Oil, and Ford. These partnerships allowed I.G. Farben to exert influence over the U.S. economy and to suppress competition in various industries, including pharmaceuticals.

The Pursuit of Monopoly. The book argues that the cartel's primary goal is to eliminate competition and maintain its control over key industries. This pursuit of monopoly has led to the suppression of alternative therapies like Laetrile, which threaten the cartel's profits and power.

7. Rockefeller's Influence: Shaping Medical Education and Research

AMA influence over the practice of medicine in America; how the leadership of the AMA keeps control away from its members; AMA funding by the drug industry; and examples of interlock between the two.

Controlling Medical Education. The book discusses the role of the Rockefeller and Carnegie foundations in shaping medical education in the United States. Through the Flexner Report of 1910, these foundations were able to influence the curriculum of medical schools, promoting a drug-oriented approach and marginalizing alternative therapies like nutrition.

Drug-Oriented Training. The book argues that medical students receive extensive training in pharmacology but little to no education in nutrition. This creates a bias towards drug-based treatments and a lack of understanding of the role of nutrition in health and disease.

Philanthropic Foundations. The book suggests that philanthropic foundations are used as a means of gaining control over educational institutions and directing research towards profitable areas. This influence has led to a focus on patented drugs and high-tech treatments, while neglecting simpler, more natural approaches.

8. The FDA's Double Standard: Protecting Profits Over People

No matter how safe and effective it may be, and no matter how many people are benefited, it will forever be relegated to the category of "unproven" therapies.

Unequal Treatment. The book criticizes the FDA for applying a double standard when evaluating drugs and nutritional supplements. While drugs are often approved despite known risks and side effects, nutritional supplements are subjected to excessive scrutiny and are often banned or restricted based on flimsy evidence.

Protecting the Drug Industry. The book argues that the FDA's actions are often motivated by a desire to protect the interests of the pharmaceutical industry. This protection racket involves suppressing alternative therapies that threaten the profits of drug companies and promoting drug-based treatments, even when they are less effective or more harmful.

Examples of the Double Standard. The book provides examples of the FDA's double standard, including its approval of DES as a fattening agent for cattle while simultaneously restricting access to Laetrile. It also highlights the agency's tolerance of harmful chemicals in processed foods and its suppression of information about the benefits of vitamins and minerals.

9. The Courage to Challenge: Doctors on the Front Lines

Imagine: a cure for cancer found in the seeds of fruits, not in research laboratories, and discovered by people without government grants or prestigious diplomas hanging on their walls!

Intimidation and Harassment. The book describes the intimidation and harassment faced by doctors who dare to use Laetrile or other alternative therapies. These doctors often face professional ostracism, loss of hospital privileges, and even legal prosecution.

The Importance of Freedom of Choice. The book emphasizes the importance of freedom of choice in cancer therapy. It argues that patients should have the right to choose the treatment that they believe is best for them, without being restricted by government regulations or medical dogma.

The Call for Courage. The book calls for doctors to have the courage to challenge the status quo and to stand up for their patients' rights. It celebrates the courageous doctors who have defied the FDA and AMA and have continued to use Laetrile despite the risks.
