It’s hard to believe
                  that approximately one in every two people will
                  develop some form of cancer within their lifetime. As
                  a result, cancer awareness has skyrocketed. Millions
                  of people around the globe are helping to raise money
                  and awareness for cancer and cancer treatment. This
                  overwhelming support from the public just goes to show
                  how many good hearts are out there, and in no way
                  should we dismiss that generous spirit. There are,
                  however, some important facts relating to this
                  disease about which many people are still unaware.
While it is of course
                  disturbing that cancer rates are at all time time
                  high, the prevalence of this disease is causing people
                  to take notice and to question, which is always a good
                  thing. People are becoming more aware of the disease,
                  looking into alternative treatment options and trying
                  to determine the cause of this illness. People are
                  starting to wonder why so many of us are so sick. So
                  despite how gloomy it may appear, there is hope for
                  all of us.
The 5
                  facts about cancer below are indeed disturbing, but
                  what’s even more disturbing is the fact hat nobody
                  even talks about them. If we want to get to the root
                  of this disease, ignorance is not the answer.
                  Hopefully this article helps you learn some important
                  information about cancer that you probably won’t hear
                  much about in the mainstream. If you want to find out
                  what your personal cancer risk is, you can find out

Questionable Cancer Research/Fraud
Linus Pauling, Ph.D, and two time Nobel Prize winner in chemistry, has revealed: “Everyone should know that most cancer research is largely a fraud, and that the major cancer research organizations are derelict in their duties to the people who support them.” (source)(source)
He is considered one of
                  the most important scientists in history. He is one of
                  the founders of quantum chemistry and molecular
                  biology, and was also a well known peace activist. He
                  was invited to be in charge of the Chemistry Division
                  of the Manhattan Project, but refused. He has also
                  done a lot of work on military applications, and has
                  pretty much done and seen it all in the scientific
                  field, so his words are not to be taken lightly.
And it’s not just
                  Pauling making these kinds of statements. Many other
                  well respected scientists, who are definitely in a
                  position to know about this type of thing, have made
                  similar statements. For example, Dr. Marcia Angell, a
                  physician and longtime Editor in Chief of the New
                    England Medical Journal (NEMJ), which is
                  considered to be one of the most prestigious
                  peer-reviewed medical journals in the world, said
                that:
                  It is simply no longer possible to believe
                    much of the clinical research that is published, or
                    to rely on the judgement of trusted physicians or
                    authoritative medical guidelines. I take no pleasure
                    in this conclusion, which I reached slowly and
                    reluctantly over my two decades as an editor of the
                      New England Journal Of Medicine. (source)
Dr. Richard Horton,
                  Editor in Chief of another one of the world’s most
                  best known medical journals, The
                  Lancet, recently published a statement expressing
                  that a large quantity of published peer-reviewed
                  science is actually completely false. He revealed:
                  The case against science is straightforward:
                    much of the scientific literature, perhaps half, may
                    simply be untrue. Afflicted by studies with small
                    sample sizes, tiny effects, invalid exploratory
                    analyses, and flagrant conflicts of interest,
                    together with an obsession for pursuing fashionable
                    trends of dubious importance, science has taken a
                    turn towards darkness.  (source)
A lot of the ‘credible’
                  research out there has been supported and funded by
                  the pharmaceutical companies themselves, and much of
                  it conflicts with the work of independent scientists
                  from all over the world.
                  The field of U.S. cancer care is organized
                    around a medical monopoly that ensures a continuous
                    flow of money to the pharmaceutical companies,
                    medical technology firms, research institutes, and
                    government agencies such as the Food and Drug
                    Administration (FDA) and the National Cancer
                    Institute (NCI) and quasi-public organizations such
                    as the American Cancer Society (ACS).

People Are Actually Having Success With Alternative Treatments
A
                  growing trend amongst people who have been diagnosed
                  with cancer is to seek out alternative treatment, and
                  this is largely because so many people have reported
                  solid success rates. We can also attribute this shift
                  to the vast amount of published scientific literature
                  pointing people in this direction. For example, here is a quick video clip of Dr.
                  Christina Sanchez, a molecular biologist who explains
                  the power of THC. Other ingredients within cannabis
                  have also been shown to annihilate cancer tumours. Here is an older article with just
                  a few out of hundreds of studies sourced, just to give
                  you an idea. It’s worrying that no human clinical
                  trials have been conducted on the use of cannabis to
                  treat cancer, despite the fact that scientists have
                  known for decades that it is effective.
                  Mykala Comstock is a wonderful
                  example of cannabis’ efficacy; she had T-cell acute
                  lymphoblastic leukaemia, a very rare and aggressive
                  form of childhood leukaemia. In July of 2012, doctors
                  discovered a basketball-sized mass of lymphoblasts in
                  her chest. Her mass was so large that she was not able
                  to be sedated for risk of death from the pressure on
                  her esophagus and heart.
More people are to
                  turning to other herbal remedies as well. Research has
                  shown that artemisinin, found in various
                  plants, can also kill cancer cells.
Dietary changes are also
                  taking a more prominent role in alternative cancer
                    treatment. Chris Wark, a man who had stage 3
                  colon cancer, credits his recovery to a vegan
                diet.
The point is,
                  these stories are out there, and so is the science to
                  back them up. It makes you wonder why these aren’t
                  considered mainstream treatment suggestions? Perhaps
                  it has something to do with the fact that these
                  treatments cannot be patented?
There are only two
                  approved treatments for cancer — radiation and
                chemotherapy.
Our Toxic Environment
                  “How could we have ever believed that it was a
                    good idea to grow our food with poisons?” –
                  Jane Goodall
Billions of pounds of
                  toxic chemicals are sprayed on our food and in the
                  environment every single year. We’re talking about
                  organophosphates, chemicals that were used to kill
                  people in warfare during WW2. After decades of
                  spraying, a number of alarming studies have been
                  published which lead to many of these chemicals being
                  completely banned.
                  Children today are sicker than they were a
                    generation ago. From childhood cancers to autism,
                    birth defects and asthma, a wide range of childhood
                    diseases and disorders are on the rise. Our
                    assessment of the latest science leaves little room
                    for doubt; pesticides are one key driver of this
                    sobering trend. – October 2012 report by
                  Pesticide Action Network North America (PANNA) (source)(source)
Yet only recently did the
                  World Health Organization admit that glyphosate, the
                  most active ingredient in Monsanto’s Roundup
                  herbicide, can cause cancer. (source) A number of countries
                  around the world have also banned glyphosate. Sri
                  Lanka, for example, decided to completely ban it
                  after their scientists discovered that it was linked
                  to chronic kidney disease. (source)(source) It has also been completely
                  banned in various countries across Europe.
As far as pesticide
                  accumulation in the body goes, a recent study
                  conducted by researchers from RMIT university,
                  published in the journal Environmental
                  Research, found that an organic diet for just one
                  week significantly reduced pesticide exposure in
                  adults by 90 percent.  (source)
Cynthia Curl, an
                  assistant professor in the School of Allied Health
                  Sciences Department of Community and Environmental
                  Health at Boise State University, recently published a
                  pesticide exposure study in the
                    journal Environmental Health Perspectives. 
                  Results of her research indicated
                  that among individuals eating similar amounts of
                  vegetables and fruits, the ones who reported eating
                  organic produce had significantly lower OP pesticide
                  exposure than those who normally consume
                  conventionally grown produce.These studies are important because the pesticides sprayed on our food are also very toxic and have been linked to a number of diseases, like cancer. Why are we consuming chemicals that were used to kill people in warfare? How can we possibly justify such irresponsible behaviour?
And the problem extends further than simply what is being put on our food. Our food itself has been genetically modified by biotech companies, to the point where it bears little resemblance to its natural form, and is equally unrecognizable by our bodies. These companies incorporate genes from one species into a completely unrelated species. (source) This, according to many, is bad science.
                  The problem is this, geneticists follow
                    the inheritance of genes in what we call a vertical
                    fashion … within a species. What biotechnology
                    allows us to do is to take genes from this organism
                    and move it in what we call horizontally into a
                    totally unrelated species…. What biotechnology
                    allows us to do is to switch genes from one to the
                    other without regard for the biological
                    constraints…. It’s very very bad science. We assume
                    that the principles governing the inheritance of
                    genes vertically applies when you move
                  genes laterally or horizontally.
                    There’s absolutely no reason to make that
                  conclusion. – David Suzuki, geneticist,
                  activist, and environmentalist (source) 
Furthermore,
                  no studies have been cited by global health
                  authorities which prove the longterm safety of GMOs
                  on our health. This is not good science, and we know
                  for a fact that GMOs are harmful to other
                  animals which we have tested them on. For
                  example, the chronic toxicity study examined the
                  health impacts of eating commercialized genetically
                  modified (GM) maize, alongside Monsanto’s NK603
                  glyphosate-based herbicide Roundup, on rats.The study
                  found severe liver and kidney damage as well as
                  hormonal disturbances in rats fed with GM maize in
                  conjunction with low levels of Roundup — levels which
                  were below those permitted in most drinking water
                  across Europe. Results also indicated high rates of
                  large tumors and mortality in most treatment groups.

                  Other studies have found issues
                  with GM foods and pesticides appearing in maternal and
                  fetal blood.
                  As part of the process, they portrayed the
                    various concerns as merely the ignorant opinions of
                    misinformed individuals – and derided them as not
                    only unscientific, but anti-science.
                    They then set to work to convince the public and
                    government officials, through the dissemination of
                    false information, that there was an overwhelming
                    expert consensus, based on solid evidence, that GMOs
                    were safe. – Jane
                    Goodall (source)
These examples barely
                  even scratch the surface of carcinogens we are exposed
                  to. Cosmetics, flame retardants, everyday household
                  products — these are all a concern. It’s not a mystery
                  why cancer rates are so high, but we never really talk
                  about the issue in this way. Waster fluoridation is
                  another example. Fluoride was recently categorized
                  officially as a neurotoxin.
                  
                    In point of fact, fluoride causes more human
                      cancer deaths than any other chemical. When you
                      have power you don’t have to tell the truth.
                      That’s a rule that’s been working in this world
                      for generations. There are a great many people who
                      don’t tell the truth when they are in power in
                      administrative positions. This amounts to public
                      murder on a grand scale, it is a public crime. …
                      It is some of the most conclusive bits of
                      scientific and biological evidence that I have
                      come across in my 50 years in the field of cancer
                        research. (source)

Cancer Charity Fraud
The
                  Brooklyn-based National Children’s Leukemia Foundation
                  has been shut down. This comes years after they raised
                  millions of dollars through professionally run
                  fundraisers. They lured people in, claiming that the
                  funds would be used to conduct cancer research and
                  locate bone marrow donors, while they ran their “Make
                  a Dream Come True” campaign. (source)(source)
This is disturbing
                  information, but it’s not the first time that a major
                  cancer charity has been called into question, not by a
                  long shot. For example, a complaint filed by the
                  Federal Trade Commission describes four connected
                  groups, all with cancer in their name, as “sham
                  charities,” saying they instead “operated as personal
                  fiefdoms characterized by rampant nepotism, flagrant
                  conflicts of interest, and excessive insider
                  compensation.” One of those names was the Cancer Fund
                  of America Inc. These groups stand accused of taking
                  in almost 200 million dollars. (source)

Cancer Prevention
It’s remarkable how much
                  time we spend raising money for cancer
                  treatment without ever speaking about cancer
                  prevention. With out toxic environment, there are a
                  number of things you can do to minimize your risk of
                  developing cancer.
So what can you do? Stop
                  buying household cleaning products with toxic,
                  carcinogenic chemicals. Do your research, ask around.
                  Stop eating foods that are sprayed with pesticides, or
                  at least properly soak and clean your fruits and
                  vegetables for a decent amount of time before
                  consuming them. Indeed, eat more fruits and vegetables
                  to begin with. Exercise more, engage in
                  activities/experiences that make you feel good and
                  bring you joy — these are all simple steps we can take
                  to show our bodies the love they deserve.
Again, I would emphasize
                  diet, as a lot of what we are put into our bodies on a
                  weekly basis isn’t healthy at all.
For example…
                  “Studies are confirming the health benefits of
                    meat-free eating. Nowadays, plant-based eating is
