ILLUSIONS
Cancer is inherited/familial/geneticMammography/PSA are preventiveCancer a local problem – remove itCut-Burn-Poison improves survival
FACT
Early detection is NOT preventionEarly detection is either diagnosis …or false alarm not unacknowledged often leads to unnecessary surgery, chemotherapy, and radiationMay CAUSE cancer
SICKNESS INDUSTRYCORRECT Q: What does health depend on?CORRECT A: Optimally functioning liver Cytochrome P450 - glutathione, P 53 spell check = tumor suppressor gene BAD SCIENCE & BAD ECONOMICS: What chemical will stop symptoms? Can this intervention be patented? Can government be made to pay ?
BUT ….. !!!!My sister’s life was saved by a mammogram … my life was saved by a PSA test & surgery! My doctor surely must know …Health Canada couldn’t allow harmful procedures and drugs to be sold!“Faith is the enemy of reason.” P. Gotzsche Cochrane Collaboration
P53 TUMOR SUPRESSOR GENEProduces a protein that forces cancer cells to commit suicide = apoptosisRobert A. Weinberg of MIT The Biology of Cancerp53 pathway: In a normal cell p53 is inactivated by its negative regulator, mdm2. Upon DNA damage or other stresses, p53 will allow either cell repair and survival or apoptosis. How p53 makes this choice is currently unknown.
CA: most p53 dependent
Esophagus, ovary, colorectal, head& neck, pancreas, lung, skin, stomach, bladder, brain, liver,
breast
CA: less p53 dependentUterus, lymphoma, endocrine, bones, soft tissues,
prostate, cervical
CYTOCHROME P450Toxins (drugs, carcinogens, radiation) stress out the liver’s super-detoxer, glutathioneGlutathione is a tripeptide that protects every cell in our bodies from damage by free radicals andorchestrates the elimination of anything - loose glutathione and you dieAll immune function depends on P450
PSA Prostate specific antigen enzyme
FDA approved 1994 - now $ 3 billion/y80%+ not invasive – die with it not from itRapid-growing prostate CA – no treatmentPSA only useful after confirmed CA surgeryAt least 2/3 “diagnosis” false positive*HIGH RISK of impotence & diapers
Dr. ABLIN New York Times March 10, 2010:
“I never dreamed that my discovery [in 1970] would lead to such a profit-driven public health disaster. The medical community must confront reality and stop the inappropriate use of PSA screening [to] save billions and rescue millions of men from unnecessary, debilitating treatments”
MAMMOGRAPHYGotzsche, Mammography: Truth, Lies and Controversy, 2012 Cochrane Collab.S.S. Epstein, R. Bertell, B. Deaman, Dangers and Unreliability of mammography, Intern. J. Health Serv. 31 (3) 2001CMAJ editorial Nov. 22, 2011 “Time to stop mammography screening?”
CMAJ 2011 quote:
“The main effect of screening is to produce patients with breast cancer from among healthy women who would have remained free of breast disease for the rest of their lives, had they not undergone screening… the best method we have to reduce the risk of breast cancer is to stop the screening program… if screening had been a drug, it would have been withdrawn from the market. Thus, which country will be first to stop mammography screening?”“…. 99.75% of the women screened unlikely to benefit” from Epstein, Bertell, Seaman study 2001
COLORECTAL CANCERWarning signs: constipation, blood in stool, weight & appetite loss, nausea, vomiting, feverCauses: 95% no genetic link – high fat diet, red meat, alcohol, obesity, smoking, lack of exerciseP53 incapacitated, oncogenes over-expressedSurgery imperative when bowel obstructedScreening has not improved survival
COLORECTAL CA TESTSInvasive, high radiation, high false positives even in discovered polypsBowel prep and “conscious sedation” can be very traumatic and cause memory lossNo better than PSA and mammographyScreening will not prolong lifeMortality unchanged since the 1950s
INFLAMMATION 1Virchov 1863 noted puss in all CAInflammation 500 mill y.o. defense: all living things have inflammation enzymes, from fruit fly to us1986 Harold F. Dvorak/Harvard:Cancer = “wounds that do not heal.”
INFLAMMATION 2 R. A. Weinberg revised The Biology of Cancer 2006*Gene damage “the match that lights the fire, and inflammation is the fuel that feeds it” (S.A.2008)On/Off inflammation switch NF-KB (nuclear factor-kappa B) are disabled & “immune police” p53 * P53 can no longer” digest” tumorsInflammation turns H. pylori, Hep C etc to CA
INFLAMMATION 3Inflammation = code for proliferation = metastasisInflammation = enemy of surgeryBiopsies risk CA cell spreadTissue pressure in mammograms
HELPFUL TESTS
C-reactive protein - shows INFLAMMATIONThermography - pinpoints INFLAMMATIONHair analysis - reveals many CARCINOGENS
ALL cancers require exposure to carcinogensScreening should serve inflammation
identification
C-REACTIVE PROTEINReleased in response to injury, inflammation, infection = leading blood marker of inflammationDiagnostic for both CA and HEART/STROKEHelpful to prevent these by making life-style changes, start detox, change diet
THERMOGRAPHYBody temperature: Hippocrates 5th cent. BCE
For breast cancer since 1956
FDA approved 1982 –as adjunctive tool
Thermograms = physiology – non-invasive 90+% accuracy and CA seen up to 10 years earlierJ. Obstetrics & Gynecology 1983 : 61% increased survival
HAIR ANALYSISDeveloped by WHO – used in forensics tooProvides a profile of last 3 months of 37 toxins and mineral deficiencies in the bodyCorrection of mineral needs and detox permits prevention of CA, stroke, heart attack, chronic diseasesVarious laboratories – naturopaths/physicians can order
CAUSES OF CA FOOD & DRUGS Pesticides, herbicides, fungicides, food coloring, MSG, preservatives, stabilizers, “natural” flavors, fluoride, amalgamsGM foods, antibiotics, hormones HRT, anti-depressants, cancer drugs, cholesterol drugs etc Sources: CPS, www.responsibletechnology.org

CANCER CAUSES ARE KNOWNCA research based on animal modelsALL cancers can be induced artificially with absolute specificity by carcinogens and/or genetic modificationALL conventional cancer treatments derive from causing and treating artificially induced cancers in animalsCA treatments are themselves carcinogenic

BEWARE!“New”, “breakthrough”, “experimental”, “expensive”*INVITATION TO A TRIAL Q: Who pays for this? Does your doctor get a recruiting fee? Drug compared to what? ROUTINE TEST – Q: By what guideline? Guideline members?
Research on internet: “The truth is out there!”.
SUMMARYScreening serves industry, not patientsPrevention = life style & clean worldHouse of Medicine has “many mansions”.No external authority – do your own research
