 The emotional strings the case pulled were poignant, involving a two-year-old child fighting for her life against brain cancer. It was a battle that was eventually lost and everyone throughout the land felt for the parents who couldn't afford the growth hormone, somatostatin, thought to be MDB's key ingredient.
Even if they could have afforded it, they wouldn't have found any. Newspapers, milking the story for all it was worth, had published maps of the local pharmacies, urging people to get their supplies in while they could. |

 At least nine studies have shown that pregnant women who eat large amounts of N-nitroso compounds, found in hot dogs and many luncheon meats, have children with a substantially higher risk of brain cancer.
The Gene Connection
Women who carry polymorphisms in the gene programming for meth-ylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR), and who do not consume adequate amounts of folic acid (and other B vitamins), are more likely to have children with cleft lip, cleft palate, and spina bifida. |

 I had a son who was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer in 1991.1 did not want him to have chemotherapy and radiation so I took him to Mexico for alternative treatment. I was arrested and charged with child neglect and child abuse because I did not give my child chemotherapy and radiation. How insane. The charges were eventually dropped. My son never got chemotherapy or radiation and only used alternative natural treatments. My son is cancer free and currently lives in Austin, Texas. I believe the government does not want a cure for cancer. |

 Sodium nitrite consumption is strongly linked to cancer
This story doesn't stop with brain cancer and leukemia, either. Sodium nitrite consumption has been linked with a frightening number of cancers, as described in this statement taken from the Citizen Petition Seeking Labeling of Nitrate-Preserved Hot Dogs for Childhood Cancer Risk
(reprinted below):
"Nitrites are widely used as preservatives in hot dogs, besides other meat products. Nitrites combine with amines naturally present in meat to form carcinogenic N-nitroso compounds. |
| In addition, children who ate hot dogs and took no vitamins, which retard the formation of N-nitroso carcinogens, were more strongly associated with both acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) and brain cancer. (19) Sarusua and Savitz concluded:
"The results linking hot dogs and brain tumors (replicating an earlier study) and the apparent synergism between no vitamins and meat consumption suggest a possible adverse effect of dietary nitrites and nitrosamines.(20)

 It's almost as if the USDA wants people to believe that mad cow disease is like brain cancer: Some people get it, some people don't -- and we don't know why. But it's nothing like that. Mad cow disease is contagious and it is almost always acquired through exposure to contaminated feed.
That's how humans get mad cow disease -- by eating contaminated nerve tissue in cow meat products like hot dogs, salami, pepperoni and so forth. Infected cow meat then infects humans and causes their brains to literally turn to a grey mush. |

 Revici's most successful cases were patients with brain cancer.
At a hospital in Germany, doctors carried out a clinical trial on the effect of selenium in 32 brain cancer patients. These men and women were no longer responding to conventional treatment. All had increased pressure inside their heads, a typical sign of brain cancer.
Selenium levels were found to be abnormally low in 70 percent of these patients. All patients were given high-dose injections of selenium for up to eight weeks, in addition to some other non-conventional treatments. |

Cancer
What Happens
All normal cells have clear biological functions and a cycle of life, beginning when they are created. When cells malfunction or get old, this life cycle ends with apoptosis, a type of biologically programmed self-destruction. In contrast, cancer cells do not have a normal biological function, and they do not have the built-in failsafe of apoptosis. |

| Pregnant women who eat two servings per day of any cured meat have more than double the risk of bearing children who have brain cancer.
• Children who eat the most ham, bacon, and sausage have three times the risk of developing lymphoma.
• Children who eat ground meat once a week have twice the risk of acute lymphocytic leukemia as those who eat none; eating two or more hamburgers weekly triples the risk.
Fortunately, vegetarian alternatives to these standard components of the American diet are now widely available, and many of them actually taste quite good! |

 One such ingredient called MIT was recently discovered in most brand-name shampoos, and this MIT ingredient is known to cause brain cancer.
Voluntary chemical suicide
So now we are really stupid as a species, because we've poisoned our mouths, our water supply, our food, our beverages and even our shampoos and personal care products. And if you use dryer sheets, then you've got your clothes poisoned as well, they're coated in a layer of toxic chemicals found in dryer sheet products. So what else could we use to poison the population? There are still many other options. |

 Cousens: What's the emotional cost of having your child die of cancer, particularly brain cancer?
Mike: When people say organic foods look expensive, they need to do all the math – the 10-year equations, not this week's equation.
Cousens: That's kind of really the point. There's a picture in my book, Rainbow Green Live Food Cuisine, and it contrasts two sets of children who are in Mexico – some are living in the mountaintop and some are living in the valley, everything else is the same. The kids in the valley couldn't even draw a picture. |

 I mean chemicals that are molecularly similar to Agent Orange -- chemicals that cause brain cancer and impair the ability of your brain and nervous system to function adequately. I mean chemicals that have to be detoxified by your liver, which means that if you touch these chemicals -- if you even get them on your skin -- your liver has to do all the hard work to render them harmless. So, not only are you doing nothing to protect yourself against all those dangerous bacteria, you are actually harming your health by exposing yourself to these dangerous toxic chemicals. |

 A German study documenting anamu's activity against brain cancer cells related its actions to the sulfur compounds found in the plant.
In addition to its documented anticancerous properties, anamu has also been found in both in vivo and in vitro studies to be an immunostimulant. In a 1993 study with mice, a water extract stimulated immune cell production (lymphocytes and Interleukin II). |

| Temodal for brain cancer, which has an 11.6-fold variation between health authorities.19 This means that for every patient that qualified for Mabthera in the most drug-abstemious authority, 2.6 did elsewhere. And where one patient gets to use Temodal in one area, more than 11 do elsewhere. If these drugs are as good as everyone says, that is reasonable cause for concern.
Intriguingly, the report said funding was not the reason for the variation in take-up rates, which should anyway follow centralized clinical guidelines. Nor were variations in incidence of cancer to blame. |

 In rare cases, dizziness is a warning sign of neurological disease or brain cancer.
If you experience dizziness, first rule out the obvious causes: motion sickness, fever and infection, and drug or alcohol use. In the case of motion sickness or fever, the dizziness will pass when travel or the illness ends. If your problem is related to alcohol or street drugs, stop using them; if you find that you can't, see the Substance Abuse section. For dizziness related to prescription medications, contact your doctor about alternatives. |

 Children of male smokers have been shown to be at a higher than normal risk of developing brain cancer and leukemia.
Smoking has a detrimental effect on nutrition. Smokers break down vitamin C about twice as fast as nonsmokers. This can deprive the body of adequate amounts of one of the most powerful and versatile antioxidants at our disposal. Other antioxidant vitamins are depleted as well. Cigarette smoke contains high concentrations of nitrogen dioxide ozone, a compound that oxidizes the antioxidant vitamins and is also known to do damage to DNA. |

 A review of nine studies found an association between consumption by pregnant women of cured meat and the risk of brain cancer in their offspring.30 These associations do not yet constitute proof that eating hot dogs or hamburgers causes cancer in children, and evidence linking cured meat consumption to childhood cancers remains somewhat inconsistent.31
In the report studying the effects of eating hot dogs and hamburgers, the association between meat eating and leukemia was weakest among children who took vitamin supplements (page 559). |

| No link between brain cancer and cell phone use and illness has yet been proved, but it makes sense to be cautious. The electromagnetic waves from a cell phone are supposed to meet government guidelines, but this is uncharted territory. It is best to err on the side of caution. There are numerous products on the market that contain an earpiece and attached microphone that allow you to keep the telephone itself some distance from your body.

 When a 1996 study statistically linked it with human brain cancer, the FDA and Monsanto, which had purchased Searle in 1985, "were quick to assail the information and reaffirm the product's safety."32 The FDA's lead spokesperson to defend the product became vice president for clinical research at Searle two years later.
Former FDA Commissioner Dr. Herbert Ley said in 1969, "The thing that bugs me is that people think the FDA is protecting them. It isn't. What the FDA is doing and what the public thinks it's doing are as different as night and day. |

| It became clear that women in the breast implant group were three times more likely to die of diseases of the respiratory tract, primarily lung cancer, as the women in the plastic surgery control group, and twice as likely to die of brain cancer. But the Associated Press release about the announcement showed the side-stepping action on the part of the researchers.27 Dr. Louise Brinton was careful to say that "the study demonstrated only a link between implants and the two types of cancer, not a cause-and-effect relationship. |

 But both of these approaches have also achieved great results for cancers in other locations of the body, and there are other non-toxic approaches, such as Protocel or flaxseed oil and cottage cheese that are effective for brain cancer and lymphomas as well.
The most important way to ensure effectiveness of any alternative, non-toxic approach is by acquainting yourself with it enough to make sure you are doing it optimally, and/or by finding a qualified practitioner or support group to help guide you through it. |

Cervical Cancer
Cervical cancer develops from the cells lining the cervix, i.e., the canal that connects the uterus to the vagina. There are approximately 500,000 new cases of cervical cancer worldwide per year and 300,000 deaths according to the World Health Organization. About 5000 cervical cancer deaths occur annually in the United States (SLU 1998; BBC News 1999). |
