The industry refuses to educate black women about the real reasons why their cancers are more severe than white women, and it simultaneously refuses to teach black women the simple, natural solution to breast cancer prevention that can reduce national breast cancer rates by over 75 percent."
Adams backs up his assertions with charts from the National Cancer Institute as well as considerable research into the effects of vitamin D on the halting of cancer tumor growth. |
| REPPED: The breast cancer industry operates a racist medical racket that exploits black women for corporate profits, charges consumer health advocate Mike Adams in a newly-published online report: Breast Cancer Deception.
The report, available now at www.NewsTarget.com reveals the obvious reason why black women suffer higher rates of breast cancer (with greater mortality) than whites. |
| It also charges the breast cancer industry with intentionally denying black women access to the information they need to prevent nearly 8 out of 10 cases of breast cancer using a simple nutrient available for free that's actually manufactured by the human body under the right conditions. The report is available online now at: www.NewsTarget.com/Report_Breast_Cancer_Deception_0.html
"The breast cancer industry is dominated by wealthy white men who are, in my view, exploiting the bodies of low-income black women in order to generate obscene corporate profits," Adams said. |
| The cancer industry, meanwhile, remains baffled by the difference and claims to not understand why black women experience more severe cancers than white women.
The real explanation for the difference? Chronic vitamin D deficiency caused by darker skin pigmentation, indoor work environments, and dark-skinned people living at Northern latitudes (such as the Northern half of the United States, Canada or the U.K.) where sunlight intensity is greatly reduced. |

You heard that correctly: This miracle nutrient which has been scientifically shown to prevent 77 percent of all breast cancers -- a nutrient that is deficient in virtually all black women living in North America -- apparently didn't even cross the minds of these 100 doctors, nurses and cancer "experts" who contributed to this highly publicized report. If it did cross their minds, it was certainly not considered significant enough to warrant a single mention in this 113-page report: Not even a footnote!

| Since vitamin D is a substance that halts the growth of cancer tumors when circulating in the blood, it's not at all complex to understand why vitamin D deficiency in black women would result in higher breast cancer mortality.
This stuff is so simple to understand that I recently explained it to an eight grader who wrote it up for a school report. |
| And for the Chicago breast cancer task force to curiously refuse to mention this obvious link between vitamin D and breast cancer mortality in black women is nothing short of criminal negligence.
These doctors and cancer "experts" have a responsibility to know what they're talking about. They are licensed by the state to practice medicine, after all, and yet they demonstrate absolutely no ability to cover even the fundamentals of anti-cancer nutrition that could save hundreds of thousands of women from breast cancer deaths.
Who are these task force "experts? |
| Translation: black women need more chemotherapy...
These three theories are nothing short of ludicrous. If breast cancer was prevented by mammograms, most middle-class white women wouldn't have breast cancer at all! Let me state this bluntly: Mammograms do not prevent breast cancer. They only recruit breast cancer patients. In fact, mammograms actually cause breast cancer because they emit radiation and cause DNA damage in breast cells! See http://www.newstarget.com/019477. |
| The system of organized medicine that controls the cancer industry today is preying upon black women, pretending to not know why they keep dying from cancer, and refusing to tell them the truth about how their skin color causes vitamin D deficiency. I'm outraged that my fellow brothers and sisters are being killed by organized medicine and denied access to truthful information about a simple, safe and absolutely free way to prevent 4 out of 5 cancers. |

The cancer industry, Adams says, is banking on the continuation of the disease and simply cannot afford to have 80 percent of black women avoid breast cancer entirely. "The loss in revenues and jobs to the cancer industry would be devastating," he explains. "Keeping cancer alive and well is a matter of survival for the cancer industry which is now focused entirely on generating profits, not preventing cancer," Adams charges.
Additional details are revealed in Adams' special report, Breast Cancer Deception, which is available now at: www.NewsTarget.com/Report_Breast_Cancer_Deception_0. |
| These factors explain why virtually all black children being born in the United States today are vitamin D deficient (see article) and why black women suffer such severe cases of breast cancer. Vitamin D circulating in the blood has the ability halt breast cancer tumor growth, but chronic deficiency allows cancer tumors to grow unregulated. |

How did 100 doctors, nurses and cancer experts get together for a task force on breast cancer and completely miss the single most obvious cause of the disease in black women? Maybe they failed to read my own report, Breast Cancer Deception, where I clearly point out the link between sun exposure, skin color and vitamin D creation in the skin. (Or maybe they weren't interested in reading a report that didn't recommend more mammograms...)
Perhaps they have zero nutritional knowledge to begin with and aren't interested in learning anything new from someone else. |

And it's not just black women, it's all women." But there's a special pressure on black women. "Throughout the history of slavery, black women and men were used as a commodity, and because our look was so different, it was a point to ostracize us. There is this pressure that you have to look a certain way to be accepted. The way I look is still not quite as accepted as the way a White woman looks," Felicia said. "So part of it is about wanting to project a nice-looking image, but it also harkens back to how we've been perceived in this country, as different and other. |

As shown in Figure 5, the group with the highest prevalence of insufficiency was non-Hispanic black women. Risk for poor vitamin D status was related to skin color (although it was not directly measured), suggesting that sun exposure (and availability of UVB to make cholecalciferol) was an important determinant of status. As described earlier and in Table 5, African Americans tend to consume less dairy and therefore less dietary vitamin D.
Levels of 25(OH)D are influenced by exposure of skin to UVB and by dietary intakes of ergocalciferol or cholecalciferol. |

Nor has it stopped clinics from using a model that is irrelevant to black women to assign them to get regular mammograms. Ask yourself why these companies would be paying for such calculators. The answer is simple and has nothing to do with science. Create demand for technologies and drugs to be prescribed and you make money. Physicians, harried with growing paperwork and office time management requirements, are among the last to question whether these free lunches, calculators and other gizmos come with hidden costs for them and their patients. |
| Adams-Campbell asked women who were part of the Black Women's Health Study in 1995 basic questions about their lives and habits. She looked at those who developed breast cancer and learned that the Gail model correctly predicted breast cancer in eleven out of seventy-five cases. In other words, it was wrong far more often than it was right. The model missed sixty-one out of seventy-five cases of breast cancer altogether; it was predictable all right, predictably wrong. |
| Do they play any role in the increased amount of breast cancer in young women, and the greater death rate of older black women? Scientific studies of risk suggest that the longer lifetime exposure to estrogen the greater the chance that breast cancer can develop. The earlier a girl begins to menstruate and the later a woman enters menopause, the more hormones she is exposed to and the greater the odds are that she may develop breast cancer. Hormones occur naturally and regulate body functions. They tell glands and organs what to do and when to do it. |
| I tried to tell the health commissioner it makes no sense to be pushing mammographic screening, especially on young black women. If anything their breasts are even more dense than those of white women. If we start regularly putting them through the radiation that comes with mammography at a young age, we are just going to see more breast cancer down the road and lots more unnecessary cutting for biopsies of things that look suspicious but really aren't."
At this point, it's clear that many breast cancer activists recognize the wisdom of Kuller's views. |
| When production needs grew, black women were allowed into the workforce.
A half century later, Phil recalled the patients he would see at the arsenal. "We had a hospital on the grounds to take care of all casualties—black or white—that would arise from routine army work, including that at the nearby arsenal. Most of the patients I saw in the dispensary came from the chemical plant."
"But they must have been using gas masks even back then?" I asked. "Everyone knew this was poisonous material to be around, right?"
"Of course they were given masks," he replied. "That didn't mean they used them. |
| Then as now, far more black women got the disease and died of it. The fact that this ailment was uniquely a women's disease that disproportionately affected those then called "coloreds" combined to made cervical cancer less than a high priority for doctors.
More accessible forms of cancer might produce visible or palpable lesions, lumps and bumps that, once found and recognized, gave doctors a fighting chance to cut out the growth and arrest the disease. |

Not surprisingly, black women suffer extremely high rates of breast cancer while black men show similarly high levels of prostate cancer. The white-dominated medical industry pretends to be "mystified" by all this. Why won't conventional medicine simple tell black people the truth about vitamin D, skin pigmentation and cancer? Why do oncologists try to keep black people ignorant about their vitamin D deficiencies?

Further support of the role of vitamin D insufficiency in cancer development relates to the finding that in addition to their well-documented low 25(OH) D levels as a group, Black men in the United States have a 40% higher rate for total cancer mortality, whereas black women have a 20% higher mortality rate compared to their white counterparts [79].

As many as one-third of white women and one-half of black women are 20 percent or more over rheir desirable body weight.
Between the ages of 30 and 60, and in each of the decades in this age group, women who have had either surgical or natural menopause have twice the rate of CAD compared to women in their age group who still have premenopausal ovarian function.11 Women who have had both ovaries removed have a higher rate of CAD at an earlier age than women who undergo natural menopause. |

The 1983 to 1989 five-year relative survival for colon cancer was 61% among white men, 59% among white women, 48% among black men, and 49% among black women. Analysis of the National Cancer Institute's Black/White Cancer Survival Study found that black men and women with colorectal cancer had a 50% greater probability of dying of colon cancer than did white men and women. These differences in survival rates are likely related to diminished vitamin D synthesis in the skin of dark-skinned people.
The best diet only provides a few hundred units of vitamin D, even when fortified milk is consumed. |

Beginning at age 50, hypertension is more common in women rhan in men and even more so in black women. See Table 9.1 for new blood pressure guidelines set in 2003. Isolated systolic hypertension (systolic BP of 160 mm Hg or greater) or combined hypertension (systolic BP of 160 or greater and diastolic BP of 90 or greater) is directly related to increased death rates from cardiovascular disease.
Impaired tolerance to glucose is another risk factor for heart disease. Women with higher than normal blood sugar or who are clinically diabetic are at increased risk. |
| Cardiovascular disease is also a major cause of disability in older women. For black women, the risk of heart-related death is twice as high as for white women.6
Even though heart disease is the leading cause of death in both men and women, the rates of coronary disease (but not necessarily death) at virtually every age are higher in men than in women.7 When women are in their thirties and forties, the difference between men and women is four- to fivefold. After that, the difference shrinks with increasing age. |
