You have my condolences. I lost my mother the same way, Breast Cancer. The doctors did too little at the beginning stages, and too much towards the end. Which ended up killing her.

And now, I have my own health crisis, and those docs are doing the same dam thing, not enough now, but I won''t let them do more when it''s too late. Not one more dime will I give to these bass-terds.

Dam the doctors.

permin3, Get Real, the Big Pharma Scam cuts across and into all political parties, they all have dirty hands, they are all on the take ! and until the people rise up it will not change, they solution is in our hands.

If you want to stop this genocide be honest with yourself and start asking questions of all those we employ to look after our welfare and our children. We employ them for our benefit no to enhance the stocks of Big Pharma.

If there''s a cheap alternative for disease treatment GOP supported Big Pharma doesn''t want to hear about it.

This is a "Classic Example" of disinformation to protect profits for Big Pharma. The medical world of side effect laced synthetic drugs is their answer to all health problems. They failed to diagnose "Heavy Metals" role in failing health but look at other area so they can cover up the symptoms. There is no profit in curing the underlying cause. The shake up is coming from the Obama Administration. They will correct the FDA and control outrageous prices. Help is finally on the way.

60 minutes ago, my wifes beautiful 40 year old niece died a dreadful and painful death from the result of treatment for breast cancer. After four years of slow torture by people with no conscience, she finally left us in the most undignified manner imaginable.

DAM THEM ! Vengence is mine sayeth the Lord, Well Dear Lord, It is surely time you began whatever Vengance you feel is appropriate, It Is Long Overdue.

May God Bless You Caroline because the Medical Profession certainly DID NOT.

Her We Go Again ! Big Pharma applying a negative response to the use of Supplements. Along with the Politicians Big Pharma has turned cancer into the largest and most profitable industry worldwide. THEY DONT WANT YOU TAKING TWO CENT CURES WHILST THEIR $2000 a shot, Mustard gas Chemo gives them immunity from the current worldwide financial disaster. They dont want you to know about Bitter Melon, Graviola, B-17 or HAELAN 951 while they pump you full of junk and they are not interested in prevention or cure. For now they are Bullet Proof BUT not for much longer, thankfully the World is becoming aware of their genocide.

IMHO, the cure for cancer IS out there, just someone is being PAID to sit their fat a$$ on it! If the cure for cancer WAS ever released, all these cancer doctors and oncologists would LOSE their nice little gravy train! People are suffering and dying because of cancer and all these yayhoos can think of is how much MONEY they can hork down by deliberately keeping it off the market - it''''s ridiculous, and I think it''''s about time that we, the American public, started SAYING something about it!

Put another bud in your bong and smoke it. There is no cure for cancer, and people like you thinking that there is are delusional.

Docs Pull Plug On Huge Cancer Trial
CBS Evening News Exclusive: Supplements Given In Hopes Of Preventing Prostate Cancer May Have Increased Risk

Just another case of the doctors treating the white middle class as lab rats.

It''ll never stop till Big Pharma gets it''s hand out of the doctors pockets......

Ha! HA! HA! Ha! HA! You poor republicans, Sarah Palin has sold her skins for some TV time.

www.chilitoz.com is reporting that Sarah Palin has signed a deal with PlayBoy Magazine to posed partially exposed in a future release of the famous nudity magazine in exchange, Heffner will run a multi-million dollar anti Obama add a day before the election.

re Vit E and oxidation - only single form vitamin E (i.e., pharmaceutical origin, not mixed tocopherols and tocotrienols) has ever been suspected of flipping to be a pro-oxidant; also care needs to be taken re oxidative stress levels of patient - thus, no pharmaceutical E to smokers. No problem for most, esp in mixed form, at practically at any dose. Again, the importance of research design and understanding of nutrition.

Doctors only work with synthetic drugs and vitamins. No mention of zinc as a preventive; this report is a joke.

customized and comprehensive individualized approach practiced in naturopathic medicine, Chinese medicine, etc. They didn''''t do it well and got what could be expected - they treated nutrition like a drug therapy. Posted by drtahuti418 at 08:23 PM : Oct 27, 2008

And how exactly were these individualized, customized comprehensive therapies developed? Kind of hard to do double-blind studies when everyone is getting something different. Seriously, I would like to know how it is that you are so sure these individualized therapies you talked about actually work.

Coal tar also yields saccharin and that has been suspected of causing cancer.

It is worth noting that research from well respected academicians has shown that vitamin E, in large quantities, can actually have a prooxidant effect rather than the desired antioxidant effect.

looks like another poorly designed study without input from professionals trained and experienced in natural medicine - inappropriate doses, questionable form of E, incomplete and generic treatment quite estranged from the customized and comprehensive individualized approach practiced in naturopathic medicine, Chinese medicine, etc. They didn''t do it well and got what could be expected - they treated nutrition like a drug therapy. Real preventive care using natural medicine would be far more effective.
