"Everyone should know that most cancer research is largely a fraud and that the
major cancer research organisations are derelict in their duties to the people who
support them."
Ralph Moss, PhD,
former Director of Information for Sloan Kettering Cancer Research Center
Chemotherapy is basically ineffective in the vast majority of cases in which it is
given, the exceptions being acute lymphocytic leukemia, Hodgkin's disease,
nonseminomatous testicular cancer, as well as a few very rare forms of cancer,
including choriocarcinoma, Wilm's tumor, and retinoblastoma.
Samuel S. Epstein
Dr. Epstein Bio
Congressional Record, Sept. 9, 1987
Chemotherapy and radiation can increase the risk of developing a
second cancer by up to 100 times, according to Dr. Samuel S. Epstein.
Alan C Nixon, PhD
former president of the American Chemical Society
...as a chemist trained to interpret data, it is incomprehensible to me that
physicians can ignore the clear evidence that chemotherapy does much, much
more harm than good.
Dr. Martin Shapiro UCLA
"Cancer researchers, medical journals, and the popular media all have contributed
to a situation in which many people with common malignancies are being treated
with drugs not known to be effective."
Dr. Candace Pert,
Georgetown University School of Medicine
Except for two forms of cancer, chemotherapy does not cure.
It tortures and may shorten life -- no one can tell from the available data.
Dr. Jürgen Buche, Preventorium Institute
...chemotherapy is curative in very few cancers - testicular, Hodgkin's,
choriocarcinoma, childhood leukemia. In most common solid tumors - lung, colon,
breast, etc. - chemotherapy is NOT curative.
Thomas Dao

Despite widespread use of chemotherapies, breast
cancer mortality has not changed in the last 70 years.
Albert Braverman MD

"Medical Oncology in the 90s"
Many medical oncologists recommend chemotherapy for virtually any tumor, with
a hopefulness undiscouraged by almost invariable failure. Most cancer patients in
this country die of chemotherapy. Chemotherapy does not eliminate breast, colon,
or lung cancers. This fact has been documented for over a decade, yet doctors
still use chemotherapy for these tumors.
Ralph Moss, PhD
former Director of Information for Sloan Kettering Cancer Research Center
Question: "How in the world, Dr Moss, can [chemotherapy] be considered a
standard cure, when it works for 2-4 [percent of cancer patients], and very specific
ones?
Answer: We are dealing with an industry. It is not supported by the facts. The way
that it is done is this. The drugs are tested in test tubes, and they look for things that will
kill cells. After you have found something that kills cells, cancer cells, cell lines which are
very abnormal non-typical sort of growths, maybe a new life form almost, then you put it
into animals. Then if it kills the cancers before it kills the animals, and shrinks the
tumours, you consider you have an active agent.
You then put it into people, and go through the 3 phases the FDA prescribes for this, and
basically if you can shrink the tumour 50% or more for 28 days you have got the
FDA's definition of an active drug. That is called a response rate, so you have a
response.. Quite a bit [different from a cure] because when you look to see if there is
any life prolongation from taking this treatment what you find is all kinds of hocus pocus
and song and dance about the disease free survival, and this and that. In the end there
is no proof that chemotherapy in the vast majority of cases actually extends life,
and this is the GREAT LIE about chemotherapy, that somehow there is a
correlation between shrinking a tumour and extending the life of the patient. [Or
that there is a correlation between looking at a cancer cell in a test tube and the tumour
in someone's body.] What happens as you grow those cells in cell lines they
become very weird. Hundreds and hundreds of generations later they don't even
look like normal human cancer cells. They are things that grow under glass, immortal
cells, unlike normal cancer cells. So much cancer research is very questionable
because it is based on this cell line research.
CHEMOTHERAPY:
AN UNPROVEN PROCEDURE
"a scientific wasteland"
How can that be true of the main cancer treatment in the U.S.? Fact is, no solid
scientific studies or clinical trials prove chemotherapy's effectiveness, except in a
small percentage of very rare types of cancer. For solid tumors of adults, the vast
majority of cancer, or anything that has metastasized, chemotherapy just doesn't work.
A German epidemiologist from the Heidelberg/Mannheim Tumor Clinic, Dr. Ulrich
Abel has done a comprehensive review and analysis of every major study and
clinical trial of chemotherapy ever done. His conclusions should be read by anyone
who is about to embark on the Chemo Express. To make sure he had reviewed
everything ever published on chemotherapy, Abel sent letters to over 350 medical
centers around the world asking them to send him anything they had published
on the subject. Abel researched thousands of articles: it is unlikely that anyone in the
world knows more about chemotherapy than he.
The analysis took him several years, but the results are astounding: Abel found that
the overall worldwide success rate of chemotherapy was "appalling" because
there was simply no scientific evidence available anywhere that chemotherapy
can "extend in any appreciable way the lives of patients suffering from the most
common organic cancers." Abel emphasizes that chemotherapy rarely can improve
the quality of life. He describes chemotherapy as "a scientific wasteland"
and states that at least 80 percent of chemotherapy administered throughout the
world is worthless, and is akin to the "emperor's new clothes" - neither doctor nor
patient is willing to give up on chemotherapy even though there is no scientific evidence
that it works! Lancet 10 Aug 91
No mainstream media even mentioned this
comprehensive study: it was totally buried.
Tell Your Oncologists
to argue with these Results!
In an especially dramatic table, Dr. Abel displays the
results of chemotherapy
in patients with various types of cancers, as the improvement
of survival rates, compared to untreated patients. This table shows:
* Colorectal cancer: no evidence survival is improved.
* Gastric cancer: no clear evidence.
* Pancreatic cancer: Study completely negative. Longer survival in
control (untreated) group.
* Bladder cancer: no clinical trial done.
* Breast cancer: No direct evidence that chemotherapy prolongs
survival; its use is "ethically questionable." (That is particularly
newsworthy, since all breast cancer patients, before or after surgery,
are given chemotherapy drugs.)
* Ovarian cancer: no direct evidence.
* Cervix and uterus: No improved survival.
* Head and neck: no survival benefit but occasional shrinkage of
tumors.
What does HIV & Chemotherapy
have in common?
They both destroy White Blood Cells!
This destruction of WHITE BLOOD CELLS is very much like what happens to HIV
patients who are initially diagnosed as being HIV positive. Over time, the HIV virus
destroys CD4 cells (Look at Hypothetical Example below) which are WHITE BLOOD
CELLS called "Helper Cells". These CD4 white blood cells are our first line of
defense against any foreign invader and protect us from many different types of
diseases and ailments like pneumonia, the common cold, the flu and on and on
and on.
You will notice in the HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE below, that when an HIV patient's
CD4 count reaches 200, the patient is diagnosed as having AIDS. It is at this point
when a person can become vulnerable to over 30 different types of diseases. Their
immune system no longer has the ability to fight off these diseases that normally
would not cause them any problem.

*AIDS is diagnosed when the CD4 cell count drops below 200 cells per
cubic millimeter of blood.
.
*This is why Doctors have to keep an eye on each Chemotherapy Patient's White
Blood Count because they know that if they keep giving the patient Chemotherapy
they will eventually create the same condition that AIDS Patients die from.
1. Chemotherapy kills WHITE BLOOD CELLS.
After reading this information, one quickly realizes when Chemotherapy kills your
White Blood Cells it is a Step by Step destruction of an already compromised
immune system, one White Blood Cell at a time. Did you know that studies have
been done that indicate that over 60% of Cancer patients, who take Chemotherapy,
die from opportunistic illnesses like pneumonia, the common cold, etc. instead of
the Cancer intself. Why? They have no immune system left to fight anything.
2. Chemotherapy kills RED BLOOD CELLS.
Red Blood Cells are your oxygen carriers. In the section called WHAT YOU MUST
KNOW, you will find a section that discusses ACIDOSIS. This section explains how
important it is to have a balanced PH. Did you know all Cancer patients have 2 things in
common irregardless of the type of Cancer they have? They are highly acidic and
anemic which causes a myriad of health problems. Acid drives out Oxygen and
creates an anaerobic atmosphere that Cancer & other degenerative diseases love and
thrive in.
The reason, many Cancer patients are Anemic, is because Acid drives out the Oxygen
found in a Red Blood Cell. As that Red Blood Cell(full of Oxygen) travels from the
Heart to the rest of the body, the amount of Oxygen in that Red Blood Cell can be
diminished depending on the Acid atmosphere it is traveling through. Did you
know that advanced Cancer Patients are usually 1000 times more acidic than a
healthy human being?
This low oxygen atmosphere is the perfect breeding ground for Cancer and may be the
very reason why advanced Cancer Patients rarely recover. This Acid Atmosphere as
well as other factors like Chemotherapy can cause a condition called Cachexia
which causes the Cancer patient to lose their appetite and stop eating. It is documented
that many Cancer Patients die from Malnutrition as a result of this condition not
from the Cancer itself.
So, if a Cancer patient is already Acidic & if Acid drives out the oxygen causing an
anaerobic atmosphere that Cancer loves, how much sense does it make to take
Chemotherapy that will kill more of your oxygen carrying Red Blood Cells? By a
matter of deduction and the use of common sense once again, wouldn't that create an
even more anaerobic atmosphere and provide an even more desirable situation
for Cancer to wreak havoc?
CHEMOTHERAPY SPILL
Must be treated as a Toxic Bio-Hazard
When any chemotherapeutic drug is spilled
in the hospital or anywhere en route, it is
classified as a major biohazard, requiring the
specialists to come and clean it up with their
space-suits and all their strictly regulated
protocols.
Yet this same agent is going to be put into the
human body and is expected to cure it of
disease?
Do you really want this in your body?
What's wrong with this picture?
Picture of Chemotherpy Spilled on a Patients Hand
Above is a reduced-size rendering of the burning and scarring resulting “of a spill
of chemotherapy onto the bare hand. Is it any wonder that people are worried about
what might be happening to their insides as chemotherapy is intravenously fed into the
body? Is it any wonder that chemotherapy nurses wear protective gloves?
And, is it any wonder that a high percentage of
oncologists refuse to submit to the treatments they
advocate for their patients?
McGill University: story of Oncolgists
refusing Chemo for themselves
Click Here
Chemo drugs are some of the most toxic substances ever designed to go into a
human body, their effects are very serious, and are often the direct cause of death.
Like the case of Jackie Onassis, who underwent chemo for one of the rare diseases in
which it generally has some beneficial results: non-Hodgkins lymphoma. She went into
the hospital on Friday and was dead by Tuesday.
Do you really think your Doctor believes
Chemotherapy is what you need?
In 1986, McGill Cancer Center scientists sent a questionnaire to 118 doctors who treated
non-small-cell lung cancer. More than three quarters of them recruited patients and
carried out trials of toxic drugs for lung cancer. They were asked to imagine that
they themselves had cancer, and were asked which of six current trials they
themselves would choose. In the survey of 79 oncologists, 64 said they would not
consent to treatment with Cisplatin, a common chemotherapy drug, while 58
oncologists said they would reject all the current trials being carried out by their
establishment.
Why would Oncologists refuse Chemo?
“The ineffectiveness of chemotherapy and its
unacceptable degree of toxicity.”
Philip Day, Cancer: Why We’re Still Dying to Know the Truth
Because of the problem of nausea and vomiting caused by cancer itself as well as many
chemotherapy agents and/or radiation therapy, many cancer patients develop
anorexia - the loss of appetite or desire to eat. This situation is not good at all
because it can lead to a condition known as cancer "cachexia" - a wasting syndrome
characterized by weakness and a noticeable continuous loss of weight, fat, and
muscle. A high percentage of cancer patients actually die of malnutrition rather
than their disease itself.
Dr. Wynders' Bio
Chemotherapy expert Ernst Wynder, former professor at Sloan-Kettering Hospital
and recipient of a medal from the American Cancer Association, wrote this warning
to professor Gearin-Tosh about advising a close friend to avoid chemotherapy!
"If your friend touches chemotherapy, he's a goner."
"GREED IS THE ROOT OF ALL EVIL"
”Chemotherapy Report”
Why so much use of chemotherapy if it does so little good? Well for one thing, drug
companies provide huge economic incentives. In 1990, $3.53 billion was spent on
chemotherapy. By 1994 that figure had more than doubled to $7.51 billion. This
relentless increase in chemotherapy use was accompanied by a relentless increase in
cancer deaths.
