The Failure Of Orthodox Cancer Strategies: Alternative Cancer Treatments Consistently Winning

When Senator Hubert Humphrey (D - Minn) died of bladder cancer in 1978 it certainly wasn't from the lack of adequate treatment

. Senator Humphrey was one of the staunchest supporters of orthodox cancer research on Capitol Hill and had access to the finest and most advanced medical care in America.

And it was not because he had gone undiagnosed for too long and that when discovered, the cancer had spread beyond recall. Senator Humphrey's doctors discovered his cancer twelve years before he died, in 1966. And from that moment forward, he was treated with the very best of what orthodox medicine fondly refers to as "proven" methods. These "proven" methods claim a very high cure rate.

They keep patients alive for a full five years after diagnosis. Those are the statistics. Five years is 1,825 days. Any patient that dies on day 1,826 is off the radar and is recorded as cured. So much for statistics. But it can be argued that Senator Humphrey survived a full twelve years after his cancer was discovered. Well, not quite. Here's what happened:

In 1966, doctors found tiny growths in his bladder. They classified these growths as non-malignant. They were at that time, no bigger than pinheads. He was not diagnosed with cancer until 1973. Right there, orthodox medicine had dropped the ball.

To treat his cancer, doctors administered radiation therapy, which when concluded, they pronounced a success and credited themselves with a cure. To be absolutely certain, they followed Senator Humphrey with urology examinations every six months, until in May of 1976, Dr Dabney Jarman declared that he found no reason to prescribe further treatment for the condition (New York Times, May 6, 1976). Not long after that, the cancer was back. With a vengeance.

On October 6, 1976, Senator Humphrey was operated on by a team of surgeons at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Clinic. Chief surgeon, Willard Whitmore MD then appeared before the press and television cameras at a crowded news conference and solemnly declared, "As far as we are concerned, the Senator is cured" (New York Times, October 8, 1976). He added that 70% of patients who had undergone this operation have had no recurrence of their cancer.

As a preventive measure, to wipe out any microscopic colonies of cancer cells that may be hidden somewhere in the body (here's where they admit that surgery does not cure cancer), the Senator's doctors commenced treatment with then experimental, chemo drugs. Within a year, Senator Humphrey was dead. In that short time, Senator Humphrey had withered from a vigorous middle-aged man to an old and feeble cancer victim. The Senator himself blamed chemotherapy for at least making a significant contribution to his demise, calling it "bottled death," and he refused to return to Memorial Sloan Kettering for more drug treatments.

In the Senator's case, the "proven" orthodox strategy of cut, burn, and poison proved remarkably ineffective. And Senator Humphrey is not alone. Countless patients have their cancers detected early, are treated early with the "proven" therapies of surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy, and ... die!

But such cases are soon forgotten in the deluge of favorable publicity over such successful treatments as those of President Ronald Reagan.The problem with this, though, is that while President Reagan was treated for cancer by these orthodox, "proven" methods, the President, in the end, went to Germany to get cured.

President Reagan was wracked with cancer. He had prostate cancer, colon cancer, skin cancer. Here in America, surgery was used to deal with it, and largely failed, although at first it appeared to be successful But then, in 1985, in a little publicized trip to Germany, under severely downplayed conditions in which his reasons for traveling there were not revealed, Ronald Reagan was treated for cancer by Dr Hans Nieper, in Hanover.

And he came home cured. The naysayers are quick to point out that the cancer seems to have come back, but the fact remains that when Ronald Reagan died in June of 2004 at the age of 93, he did not die of cancer.

Chemotherapy as practiced in the U.S. is well known to cause massive hair loss. When the President returned after being treated for cancer in Germany, he had lost no hair and in all other appearances, he was his normal vigorous self. And after defeating his cancer the German way, President Reagan went on to live for another 19 years.

President Reagan never shared his story of cancer treatment with his fellow Americans. Many other celebrities have gone to Germany to rid themselves of cancer Among them a U.S. Senator, and European Royalty. Liz Taylor, Suzanne Somers, Anthony Quinn, William Holden, and Princess Caroline have all chosen Germany's kinder, gentler treatments.

Around the time of President Reagan's trip to Germany for his cancer therapy, the National Cancer Institute had published a pamphlet advising people about how to spot a "cancer quack." One of their profound admonitions was: "Beware of any doctor who links cancer to diet."

That statement left the NCI with egg on its face after President Reagan returned from his successful cancer therapy in Germany. Dr Nieper had ordered the President to change his diet. And this caused the entire American orthodox cancer establishment to change its views on cancer and diet.

As successful cancer therapy around the world becomes more and more known and understood by the American public, how will the profit driven cancer industry respond? That question remains to be answered.

Money is a powerful influence and cheaper, more effective cancer therapies arriving on the scene are threatening the lucrative profits being made by our orthodox machine. We can all be sure that they won't take this lying down and that we can expect a deluge of negative commentary to assault us as these alternative therapies become increasingly accepted.
