    Entirely true. Sheeple are easily led down whatever path the corps want.

    Bottom line- be an educated consumer.

    If I ever got cancer, or heart disease, or diabetes, the first thing I would do is give up meat and dairy.

    People underestimate how much a clean diet can completely reverse our nation's deadliest killers.

    Cause, you know, no one makes $$$ when people eat fruits and veggies and stay healthy. :rolleyes:

    Hey tinfoil hats or people who just got in shape so they think they are scientists now:

    If you were diagnosed with throat cancer - what would you do? Am I correct in assuming you will just "eat right' and go see a chiropractor because that's what some poorly designed internet sites tell you?

    I think there needs to be less conspiracy and some more basic understanding of cancer, it's causes and cures post diagnoses. Here's a start http://www.mdanderson.org/patient-and-cancer-information/index.html

    There's no argument from me that a healthy lifestyle and diet can help reduce the risks of getting cancer. Chiropractors and the flavor of the month cancer "cure' treatments won't. A couple months ago it was hydrogen peroxide cures all cancers!! My mother actually fielded calls to see if it was a viable alternative to regular cancer treatments. Do you have any idea how horrible that is?

    If you started this thread trying to discredit the American Cancer Society, you are an idiot.

    Just because they discredit your cousin's alternative medicine theory doesn't mean they are garbage. There are a lot of people out there that are skeptical or alternative medicine, including me (in most cases).

    The fact of the matter is, as of right now, radiation and chemo-therapies are proven to be the most effective treatment for most types of cancers out there. This could change as soon as 10 years, or it could stay the same for 100, it's hard to tell (see: Kanzius Cancer Project).

    But like I said, if you think the American Cancer Society is a joke you are an idiot. They do far more than your cousin could ever do, specifically by way of fund raising and promoting researching. They are one of the biggest fundraising vehicles, for cancer, out there. For that, they are no joke.

    Eating only fruit and vegetables would not be the most healthy diet either... nor is it "clean" or natural. Our body functions well when we also eat and nuts.

    well of course...nuts, whole grains, beans, rice...essential for a balanced diet. there's a ton of other protein sources out there besides animal products.

    People have been eating animal products for a long time. Eating wild, lean animal meat is very good for you. But.. what do I know.

    it works two ways, all people are idiots depending on what side they believe. i wouldn't blame you if you think that way, the traditional medicine is well established, the network goes up to govt - congress... etc.. while alternative meds is being brought down by this mafia to keep their bank account in good shape - or company's stocks.

    i was once like you but i've see things first hand.

    hope you're all well and healthy.

    100% of cancer patients who let me have intercourse with whichever of their wives, daughters, nieces, etc. who fall in the age range of 18-35 whenever I want over the course of a year have come out of the experience cancer free. Simply submit pictures of said relatives for pre-approval and we can get started right away.

    Poster is not a medical doctor. Claims have not been independently verified. There is no evidence that your hot ladies sexing up StupidMoniker will actually cure your cancer.

    Do you have any real scientific data to prove the Gerson therapy cures cancer?

    independently tested or subjected to randomized controlled trials, otherwise know as the opposite of "some dude's cousin cures AIDS"

    This is the best (worst) part:
