| This book is must reading for all cancer patients and their families. It is
exhaustively researched and meticulously referenced. In addition, it is
beautifully written, much like an adventure story. Be forewarned that the book
is also extremely disturbing. It tells the story of how alternative therapies
for cancer, labeled unorthodox during the last century, were systematically
suppressed by the American Medical Association and federal government agencies
charged with protecting the public health. As it turns out, Harry Hoxsey who
treated cancer patients with an herbal tonic and diet beginning in the 1920s,
was one of a number of people who were investigating unorthodox treatments.
Most of these treatments were nontoxic plant and herb-based formulas and also

| The Hoxsey clinic was moved to Tijuana, Mexico in 1963 by Mildred Nelson,
Hoxseys long-time nurse. It continues its mission as the Bio Medical Center.
Information about how to contact the center is included in the book. Kenny
Ausubel deserves a Pulitzer Prize for this work. Tell everyone you know who has
lost a d one to cancer, is struggling with this disease herself or is
supporting a d one through it to READ THIS BOOK! |
| From what I have read and been told, the record of clinics offering
only an alternative approach is dismal. Good book: Breast Cancer :
What You Should Know (But May Not Be Told About Prevention, Diagnosis,
and Treatment) by Steve Austin N.D. and Cathy Hitch MSW. Steve is a
highly respected doctor and professor of nutrition (not to mention a
heluva piano player)who formally researched alternative cancer clinics
in the 80s. Cathy, his wife, was diagnosed with breast cancer. The book
details how she dealt with it. |
