 In discussing current sugar/cancer research, Melanie Polk, director of nutritional education at the American Institute for cancer research, concludes: "The studies tell us that diet does [have an] impact on health. By choosing the right foods—staying away from refined sugar products—we can make ourselves healthier."
"Bottom line," says Harvard's Dr. Willett, is that "greatly reducing or eliminating refined starches and sugar is one of most important steps you can take toward a better diet and long-term well-being. |

 REPPED: (NewsTarget parody) Big Tobacco has joined forces with the breast cancer industry in the launch of its newest product aimed at raising money for breast cancer research: "Pink ribbon" SlimSmokes cigarettes for women. For every pack of cigarettes sold, the manufacturer pledges to donate two cents to breast cancer research. "We aim to raise money to help find a cure for breast cancer," said Yin Hailing, spokesperson for Phillip Porous, the maker of pink ribbon SlimSmokes cigarettes. "Because the longer our best customers live, the more they can smoke! |

 In spite of the tremendous amount of money spent on cancer research and treatment, cancer remains the second leading cause of death in the United States. There were 537,000 cancer deaths in 1995; there has been a steady increase in the number of deaths caused by cancer over the past thirty years.6
The U.S. has spent more than $25 billion in cancer research over the past twenty-five years only to see absolutely no decrease in the relative number of people dying from cancer. |

 The increased risk of heart disease and cancer from eating processed meats is so large that the World cancer research Fund recently made a bold announcement and warned that processed meats should be avoided by everyone. There is no safe level of consumption of processed meats, the WCRF says.
Of course, this Health Magazine article didn't say these foods wouldn't give you cancer. They just said they're good for your waist line. And I suppose they have a point there. Nothing causes you to lose weight and shrink your waist line faster than getting pancreatic cancer! |

 Here's a very specific example of this amplifying benefit: While we know that broccoli and tomatoes, both SuperFoods, are independently recognized for their ability to help prevent cancer, a study published in the journal cancer research reported that when both are included in the daily diet, the ultimate effect on prostate cancer is greater than when either vegetable is eaten alone. As the report noted, "The combination of tomato and broccoli was more effective at slowing tumor growth than either tomato or broccoli alone. |

 So, after amassing 2,000 volunteers, they went door-to-door one day in November 2002 asking people to fill out a health survey and give a dollar for cancer research. Judi wasn't sure if residents would just slam their doors; instead, people wanted to talk and talk about their experiences with cancer. Before long the volunteers raised close to $150,000 to fund a research project to map cancer rates in the towns of Marin. |

Diet choices during pregnancy can make the offspring healthier or have the opposite effect, and the impact may not show up until years after birth. This casts a long shadow over the vast number of unpredicted compounds that may be produced as a result of the GM transformation process. |

 New research revealed by the American Association for cancer research (http://www.aacr.org/home/public--media/news-releases.aspx?d=945) recently revealed that just three servings a month of raw cruciferous vegetables (like cabbage or broccoli) slashes bladder cancer risk by 73 percent in non-smokers. Other research is emerging nearly every week on the anti-cancer effects of blackberries, sprouts, citrus fruits, salad greens and many other living foods. |

Some time ago Johnson & Johnson announced acquisition of SCIOS Inc., the Sunnyvale, CA-based company that led a pack of pharmaceutical companies in introducing a new class of anti-inflammatory drugs called p38 blockers. The price of the acquisition was $2.4 billion and included a drug for congestive heart failure. [Reuters, Feb. 10, 2003]
If approved by the Food & Drug Administration, the p38 enzyme inhibitor would be a breakthrough oral anti-inflammatory drug, say SCIOS executives. |

A review of carcinogenic chemical compounds by the noted researchers J. W. Cook and Edmund L.

 Just last week, the American Association for cancer research published astonishing research on the anti-cancer effects of eating RAW cruciferous vegetables. The research reveals something truly astonishing: That a mere 3 servings of raw cruciferous vegetables a month slashes bladder cancer risk by 73 percent in non-smokers. That's just three servings in a whole month. Imagine the anti-cancer effects derived from drinking a small amount of cruciferous vegetables every single day! |

 Let them know that the World cancer research Fund now recommends that ALL consumers avoiding eating processed meats for life!
3) Boycott all processed meat products for life! Never buy processed meats again. That includes shopping at the grocery store, eating at a restaurant or consuming foods at a social event.
4) Spread the word. Tell others about the dangers of sodium nitrite. Print out the Honest Food Guide (www.HonestFoodGuide.com) and share it, if you want. Let people know that processed meats are dangerous for their health. |
| Their conclusion, published in the World cancer research Fund's report, Food, Nutrition, Physical Activity and the Prevention of Cancer: a Global Perspective (2007), has rocked the health world with a declaration that all people should immediately stop buying and eating processed meat products and that all processed meat should be avoided for life!
Processed meats, the report explains, are simply too dangerous for human consumption. And why? |

 The World cancer research Fund recently completed a review of over 5,000 studies on the link between meat consumption and cancer, concluding that there is no safe level of processed meat consumption and that all consumers should avoid processed meat forever (unless they want cancer). This is the first time that any large global health group has specifically warned consumers about the health dangers of processed meats.
"The most diseased people I've seen are also consumers of processed meat products," Adams said. |

| Not everyone is convinced that raising money for breast cancer research by selling cigarettes to women is a great idea. Consumer health advocate and cancer industry critic Mike Adams (aka "The Health Ranger") questioned the sanity of the plan, saying that, "Pink ribbons have become corporate graffiti. They're used to exploit consumers' emotional associations for the purpose of selling more products that will actually harm them. |
| A new event called, "Smoke for the cure" is planned for next year as a way to increase product sales and raise more money for breast cancer research.

 It means, essentially, don't be hoodwinked into buying "pink" products unless you know exactly how much money is going to cancer research and where the money's going. A lot of the "pink products" money goes to the Susan G. Komen foundation, which in my opinion is another useless nonprofit engaged primarily in pleasing the interests of its big corporate supporters rather than actually doing anything useful to prevent cancer. Read the book Pink Ribbons, Inc. to learn more about what happens behind closed doors at the Susan G. Komen foundation. |

 The cancer industry remains ignorant of useful treatments
Amazingly, after decades of research, and billions of dollars spent on cancer research, the conventional cancer industry remains oblivious to this simple truth about cancer. They don't teach cancer prevention, and they don't believe in cancer cures even though many exist. They are still treating the water rather than the dam by treating the tumors rather than the underlying problem.
Conventional cancer treatments actually harm the patient and the patient's immune system, making it even more difficult to overcome cancer in the future. |

 Although conducted by doctors of professional standing, these experiments are not regarded as conclusive in the field of cancer research. However, we do not believe that any serious medical research, even though its results are inconclusive should be disregarded or lightly dismissed.
At the same time, we feel it is in the public interest to call attention to the fact that eminent doctors and research scientists have publicly questioned the claimed significance of these experiments.
