It’s October and the pink frenzy for Breast Cancer Awareness has officially begun. But do you really need any more awareness? What have all the pink campaigns accomplished? Have lives really been saved? Have scientists or anyone else in conventional medicing for that matter, gotten any closer to finding a “cure” for breast cancer? Or could it be that it’s just a big scam to frighten more women into getting more diagnostic tests and surgical procedures?
This article aims to help you see clearly through the pretty pink façade. You will discover why even long-time supporters of the most widely known breast cancer charity, Susan G. Komen (also known as Komen), have recently done a 180 degree turn. From misleading marketing claims, to repulsive corporate partnerships, to blatant conflicts of interest, the truth about Komen is being exposed.
Educated people who have learned the truth have stopped blindly supporting Komen as it has become crystal clear about their deceptive marketing tactics and questionable use of funds. In just the last few years, revenues for Komen have sharply dropped. Many intelligent women (and men) who once proudly raised money to “race for a cure” have begun to recognize “pinkwashing” for what it is.
What is “Pinkwashing?”
Breast Cancer Action, a nonprofit organization known as “the watchdog of the breast cancer industry” coined the term “pinkwashing.” It happens when a company or organization claims to care about breast cancer by promoting pink ribbon products, while at the same time produces, manufactures and/or sells products that are linked to the disease. Pinkwashing is when “cause marketing” loses sight of “the cause” and is more about the bottom line – profits.
One of the best examples of pinkwashing was Kentucky Fried Chicken’s “Buckets for the Cure” campaign. For every pink bucket of fried chicken sold, KFC donated 50 cents to Susan G. Komen. Fast food and especially fried food are a well-known cause of many diseases, including cancer. You gotta wonder…who at Susan G. Komen approved this joint venture and whose interest do they really have in mind?
More Red Flags, Conflicts of Interest, and Fundraising Fraud
In 2011, Susan G. Komen created a perfume called “Promise Me.” It contained unsafe chemicals that were deemed toxic and hazardous with negative health effects. The ingredients included galaxolide, an endocrine disruptor, touluene, a possible carcinogen and toxic to the liver, and coumarin, which is toxic to the liver and kidneys and used to kill rodents.
In 2012, Komen partnered with the Coca Cola Company promoting FUZE tea. With 31 grams of sugar, high fructose corn syrup (likely genetically modified), sucralose, and preservatives. Is this a beverage that should be promoted alongside claims to be researching for “the cure” for breast cancer?
In 2013, Yoplait (the yogurt company) held a campaign called “Save Lids to Save Lives.” They donated 10 cents per lid with a special code which consumers could redeem. Yet hormone-laden dairy, sugar, and artificial chemicals have all been linked to cancer.
How can an organization that claims to be focused on preventing and curing breast cancer partner with companies that sell highly processed fast food, junk food, artificial food, hormone-filled dairy products, and sugar/chemical-laden food and beverages? Especially, when we know these things have a strong correlation with contributing to cancer.
Many of these “pseudo foods” and products are known contributors to cancer causation or progression. Do you think these partnerships are actually contributing to a cure or are they really creating more customers for the cancer industry?
Komen Downplays Well Known Environmental Toxins and Chemicals
Komen’s website seems to also have the gall to downplay or even deny any possible breast cancer link between well-known and obvious environmental toxins. This includes BPA – an endocrine disruptor that mimics estrogen, found in products such as plastics, liners of canned food and even toilet paper; phthalates – another hormone disruptor found in personal care and cleaning products; and parabens – a preservative found in cosmetics that acts like a weak estrogen.
All of these chemicals increase the risk for hormone-driven cancers. Watchdogs have pointed out that Komen receives generous donations from companies who use BPA in their products (Coca-Cola, General Mills, 3M, to name a few).
Susan G. Komen also supports fracking for gas and oil. Fracking is a process which entails mixing water with chemicals, such as the carcinogens formaldehyde and benzene, and pumping the mixture underground to breakup rock formations, thus polluting groundwater. Komen even went so far as to promote pink drill bits to be used for fracking.
Are Susan G. Komen’s Messages about Mammograms Misleading?
Not only does Komen partner with products and companies that contribute to cancer, they have exaggerated the benefits of mammograms with catchy slogans such as “early detection saves lives.” Women have been bombarded with this message for far too many years. Few people questioned the almighty annual mammogram. It was always heavily promoted as the “gold standard” for early detection and women who did not get a mammogram were equated with being irresponsible.
Unfortunately, numerous studies have shown that mammography has not lived up to its hope and promise.
The reality is that mammograms only save one life in 2,000 while they harm 8-10 women through false alarms, missed cancers, and unnecessary surgery, radiation, drugs, stress, and anxiety!
“Over-diagnosis” (red flagging cancers that would have been eliminated by the body through natural processes, never to become problematic) has become rampant since the widespread use of mammography. Millions of women have now been found to have had needless “cancer” treatments and many have died because of these. Further, while more “cancers” are being found at an early stage, studies have shown no reduction in the number of women dying of breast cancer in the last 30 years.
Breast cancer experts, major newspapers, and long-time proponents of mammography are now either questioning it or speaking out against annual screening programs stating they are doing more harm than good. Yet, despite all the studies and expert warnings, Susan G. Komen continues on with the same message proclaiming “early detection saves lives”, urging women to get mammograms.
Their website states,
Despite some ongoing debate, mammography is still the most effective screening tool used today for the early detection of breast cancer.”
Suspicious Ties to Drug Companies and Mammography Machine Makers
The pharmaceutical company AstraZeneca is the maker of the drug tamoxifen. According to “Pink Ribbon Culture,” AstraZeneca gave $97,000 to Komen affiliates in 2008. They have been known to have a very large presence at Komen “race for the cure” events and they have been a major force in Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Incidentally, tamoxifen is listed as a carcinogen by the World Health Organization as it increases the risk of uterine and other cancers. Susan G. Komen promotes the use of tamoxifen.
General Electric (GE), one of the largest makers of mammogram machines, is listed on Komen’s website as a “Promise Circle” Partner – donating the highest amount – $1 million plus annually. In 2012, Susan G. Komen and GE partnered to bring free mammograms to women in rural areas as well as uninsured women through a mobile mammography van called a “Mammovan.”
Pink-Infused Profits – Where Does All the Money Go?
A quick check of their tax returns posted on Charity Navigator (a service that evaluates and rates public charities for accountability and transparency) may come as a shock. Founder and CEO Nancy Brinker’s salary was $560,896 in 2013. And in 2016, Susan G. Komen’s President was paid $565,408.
With a multi-million dollar budget and high profile PR campaigns, Komen has been immensely successful at engaging millions of women to sign up for their annual “races for the cure.” In order to participate in their popular “three day walk” events, each participant must personally raise over $2,000 for Susan G. Komen.
Charity Navigator reports that Komen’s annual revenue is well over $200 million. Besides enormous executive salaries, a large percent of this money goes to “education” and “awareness” campaigns. This awareness then leads to fueling the push for more mammograms.
The Missing Truth About Breast Cancer Prevention
In all of Susan G. Komen’s campaigns, where is the information about the root causes of cancer (such as environmental toxins) and risk reduction or prevention through nutrition and lifestyle? Instead of promoting and offering free mammograms to underserved and low-income women, maybe Komen could give a sliver of attention and funding directly to women for free naturopathic health-care, organic food, stress reduction, nutritional counseling, immune system building, and healthy cooking classes.
The problem is these known breast cancer risk-reducers are missing one key element – profitability for Komen! And so the status quo continues and pinkwashing will prevail, unless you help us spread the word far and wide.
What You Can Do About Pinkwashing
Breast Cancer Action created a campaign called “Think Before You Pink.” They have a link on their website with “Critical Questions to Ask Before You Buy Pink.” They also created an excellent brochure entitled “Should I Get a Mammogram?”
The Environmental Working Group (EWG) is a far better charitable organization to support if you are interested in the important cause of reducing and eliminating breast cancer.
EWG researches products for toxins and pesticides so that consumers can be empowered to make healthy and safe choices with food, cosmetics, cleaning products, and more. Women can also join the “Proactive Breast Health Club” and stay informed with periodic articles on safe screening, anti-cancer nutrition, and other lifestyle strategies specifically to reduce the risk of breast cancer. (See links below for resources mentioned.)

Looking for people as health-minded as you are?
Another inconvenient truth: the Komen Foundation supports Planned Parenthood while denying the link between abortion and breast cancer.
I absolutely agree Kelly ~ and the Lie begins with birth control pills.
Have recovered from skin cancer. Not one to use cosmetics. Husband now has only one kidney due to cancer and now may have liver cancer. As retired people we can not afford all the expensive. Memberships books etc that say they have the safe answers. Why is this information not more available. Thank goodness we try our best to eat real unprocessed food. Otherwise we just do our best to avoid those foods we know are bad for us. We worry about our kids. Where are the dedicated doctors that pledge to do no harm and heal.
Hi Lynne, there’s an excellent book called Outsmart Your Cancer by Tanya H. Pierce. It is a treasure trove of cutting edge Easy, INEXPENSIVE protocols, like a product I hadn’t heard of before called Protocel. I got a used copy for $10 on Amazon, or you can get it on you nook or kindle for a little more. I agree with you, WHY isn’t this info more readily available? The author, Tanya Pierce is trying to give us just that with this book, I ope you check it out! Sincerely, Jodie Kennedy
Hi Lynne,
I have heard it said that organic, raw vegetable juicing, especially of dark green vegetables, has not only prevented cancer, but has helped cure people of many types of advanced cancer. I have adopted an organic raw food Vegan lifestyle since many years. It has cured me of my own former medical problems and enabled me to get completely off medications – since 2008. I’m much healthier today than I was when I was younger. I think the key is keeping your body and, especially, your immune system, very healthy. These are just my thoughts on the issue.
Take care of yourselves!
My husband was diagnosed with a rare brain cancer that has no cure in our country. We see a holistic healer, in AM on empty stomach he drinks 1 tablespoon of organic GMO free raw unfiltered apple cider vinegar in 16 ounces of water. After he juices, that’s prior to any type of solid food, the change in diet has been very hard but we’re doing it, have to not only for us, but our children. Even many supplements contain carcinogenic substances as well as little or no of the actual ingredient, I was buying turmeric that didn’t contain actual turmeric. It’s very hard to know what’s right since our country allows things banned in Europe, doesn’t allow the same treatment options as the rest of the world, more expensive and less effective, all cancer patients have to fight for information as we are not allowed to have access to information, treatment that is curative is even harder to obtain, although less expensive than mainstream most don’t realize since if insurance covers that is all they look at. Most alternative treatments are based on getting your own immune system to do what it needs to do to fight. It’s to get the toxins out of your body and eat foods that are “real” not created in a lab, I fight every day to raise public awareness as no one should die bc our information is censored just as it is in a communist country. Everyone should be able to have access to not only information but treatment. We are not vegan but eat only grass fed pasture raised meat and dairy products and except for meat and some eggs we eat raw, including milk that is raw with the enzymes intact. The immune system is EVERYTHING, you are 100% correct, every alternative treatment is based on that idea, just different methods.
To Lynne and also Mark’s comment, I have been juicing 1x daily raw vegetabless and fruits for a little over 1 year now. Mark is right. I am having similar results . No book necessary or any expensive envelope. I do use a tsp. of non gmo wheat grass mixed in for remarkable results. Constants in my shake ~ grapefruit , lemon juice (fresh squeezed) a handful of organic kale / spinach and a chopped apple with peel. Each day I vary 1-2 additional items/whatever looks good. An apple a day keeps the Dr. Away. 🙂 give it a try.
Where are all the doctors?In the pocket of big pharma or so afraid of getting kicked out of their medical associations that they dare not speak anything but the “official” line on anything.Those that have the guts to go against the “official” line face loosing their practice,breaking up their families,huge penalties from the medical boards and in some cases even death,or disappearing.Takes a very brave and dedicated person to do that but they are increasing in number and these stories,Dr.Mercola,Ty Bollanger,Sayer Ji,Suzanne Humphreys,Dr.Berlinskie ,etc,etc. are speaking out and slowly we are educating people on many fronts about the scams of the medical system and these phony charities.
Everyone in the world who knows of a pink ribbon organization should forward this article to them. I am do so right now. Thank You. UNITED WE STAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you GrannyD! I agree.
I have stage IV metastatic breast cancer. All this makes me so sad. When I was first diagnosed all my friends and family got me blankets, make-up, candy, all kinds of stuff-all with pink ribbons on them. They thought they were supporting me by buying stuff associated with Susan G. Komen. I didn’t want to be ungrateful, so I took the gifts keeping in mind that they were bought out of love and hope for a cure. My cancer could’ve been caught earlier, but no one believed I had it because I’m only 27. After 8 months of looking, planned parenthood said they’d do it for $91. I was going to pay, when I got an e-mail from a local hospital that takes my insurance, and they did it for free. I have friend survivors who run in the race every year, spending hard earned money(cancer will clean out your bank account)only for that money to pay the founder damn near a million bucks! We need to shut PINKWASHING and Susan G. Komen down. There are plenty of other race for the cure marathons that aren’t run by an evil company, and they don’t charge so much either.
Hi there.
I saw a video from the truth about cancer with a lady whom rubbed a concoction on her breasts where the cancer was. Coconut oil, the essential oils: myrr, sandlewood, and frankinscense. Check it out.
Take care of yourself
Such an interesting artical. Have to say I have never supported the pick ribbon campaign which prides itself in driving funds for ‘a cure for breast cancer’. What desperately needs our attention is to uncover what’s behind this ever increasing incidence of cancer cases, period!! What are we doing, what are we supporting and turning a blind eye to when it comes to our western culture and maintaining our so called ‘lifestyles’!??
We need to wake up and take responsibility for our own health and well being and stop throwing ourselves prostrate to a culture and system which is so preoccupied with having, possessing, achieving and consumption: it disregards life and the real quality of it.
The more we continue to turn to others or their services and facilities to help or support us, the less we are capable of realising our own power, own responsibility to attend to our own lives. Hasn’t this gone on long enough already?? How sick do we have to get, how many lives must we lose unnecessarily, unnaturally? If this matters to you then make a stand: start with yourself and look at what you’re buying into without deliberation, without question. It’s time to reclaim our lives: what more will it take to enable us to realise our compulsion to maintain our lifestyles is nothing without our bodies….
We also need to insist our government stop killing us with pesticides, GMO’s, antibiotics in our foods and worse, hormones. Better to pay more for foods than be poisoned,
why in the world would our governments support monsanto grain seeds that contain pesticides and herbicides? big business and money are really the source of promoting these toxins in our staple foods. I too worry for our children.at least europe knows when to say know to these toxic seeds.
Enough with the pink, all cancers matter!
Yess!!! Stop Komen for the good of the USA!!
I am still alive and cancer free from stage 4 breast cancer because of the Susa G. Komen grants. Im am very thankful to Susan G. Komen Foundation!
Do they make grants for those who choose holistic care?
October is also liver cancer awareness month who knew. It’s all pink. This is keeping other people from surviving. Breast cancer is 95% survival. My esophageal cancer is 10% survival. We can’t get funding because pink takes it all!!! Think of everyone not just you.
Hi Michele
You are not alone. Take consolation in the fact, that cancer of the Oesophagus, even though it is an agressive type of cancer, if diagnosed early enough without the lymph nodes involvements, and has not spread to other organs in the body, has been known to have been successfully operated and cured. My husband was diagnosed of the Cancer of the Oesophagus in Oct. 2015. After rigerous tests to detect the spread, I am happy to say that there was no spread and no involvements of Lymph nodes, and was diagnosed as T1.NO and was successfully operated in Feb.2016. he did not need any chemo or radiotherapy, and he has no evidence of cancer in his body and is doing splendidly well. So do not dispair. There is hope out there. Good Luck. Do watch the Episodes of The Truth about Cancer and follow the Juicing and essential oil therapy. you can not go wrong.
I am so sorry for what you are going through – I had stage 2b invasive ductal breast cancer, diagnosed in 2013. I’m with you on the pink stuff, makes me sick. Tonight in Palm Beach (I live near, in Tequesta Florida) they held a mega fundraiser, for the Komen foundation, raised around a million dollars, that will just about cover the 2 salaries of the founder Nancy Brinker and her president. Makes me sick. My friend with stage IV breast cancer, is still here, we can’t stand the Komen foundation hipocrasy. I hope you are doing well and I will pray for you, we are in this for the long haul! Thank you for speaking out so beautifully!
why does it always have to be about money and greed? I’m sick to death of it.
Pink Ribbons, Inc. is a 2012 documentary which is WELL worth watching. As you mention in this excellent article, the film documents many of the ways in which Komen has deceived the public. Its unholy alliance with polluters (both of our bodies AND the environment) is shameful. Thank God The Truth About Cancer is out there educating the public.
Start juicing with non gmo wheat grass
There is no GMO wheat, only roundup dried wheat.
A piece of advice for those who want to convince others to stop donating to the Komen Foundation: focus on the excessive executive salaries. Many people who don’t believe mammograms are a problem or who think nothing’s wrong with “Buckets for the Cure” etc will most likely still not want their donation money going towards overhead rather than research (which they probably currently think it’s going to). This is how I convinced my mom to stop donating to the Komen Foundation even though she still believes in conventional cancer treatments. Anyone can see that a “nonprofit” executive salary of hundreds of thousands of dollars is a scam, even those not yet convinced the other things are scams too.
ABSOLUTELY!! Thank you for sharing this fact regard the alliance between Komen and the baby-killing organization known as Planned Parenthood.
There is a research in St. Petersburg, Fl. called the Tampa Bay Research Institute. they have been doing research for over 30 years and have developed IMMUNE EXTRA which is from the pine cone extract….I worked 20 years with caner patients and one young gentleman was told to go home and get his affairs in order, he then went to another well known hospital center and was told the same thing. He got in touch with the TBRI and started taking Immune Extra….2 in the am and 2 in the pm…..changed his eating habits, medication, quite watching the news, and drinking alkaline water….5 years and doing well. TBRI helps and is researching for cancer, Alzheimer’s and asthma. Ty, you need to check out this center…..
More young people are drinking wine on a regular basis – the chemical ACETALDEHYDE in alcohol causes and exacerbates breast cancer – doctors say “Oh the resveratrol in it is good for your heart” they don,t tell you can take a resveratrol supplement !!!! Why is this not made more public !!! – it would save more lives !!!
It’s unfortunate the world has become more about money than a life. As a breast cancer survivor in 2002, I underwent a double lumpectomy, 8 weeks of radiation and 5 years of tamoxifen, so that “I may live”. In 2015, again the cancer appeared on my chest bone and a double mastectomy and chemo was insisted upon, again, in order that “I may live”. I’m reminded everyday of my experience while getting dressed, as now my chest is concave, I elected not to have reconstruction surgery and I declined chemo. Its the most frightening experience I’ve ever been through. I do believe radiation, mammograms and regiment of tamoxifen were damaging to my mutating cells. Making matters worse, my oncologists’s office has a large bowl of candy in the reception area and when asked about it, his exact were words were “you can eat anything you want as nothing’s been proven to affect the cancer cells”. I no longer see that oncologists. I too, walked in the Komen walks, wanting to make a difference in others lives, I shiver to think I lined an executive’s pocket. Folks, we don’t know when our expiration dates are, no one does, so-LIVE! Eat good organic foods, get out and breathe clean air, drink filtered water, stay away from some types of plastics, don’t eat gluten, HMO, GMOs, and other things. Most importantly, educate yourself. Don’t believe all that you hear and ask yourself, if someone is pushing something, how are they benefiting? Read labels and trust your gut. The medical profession recommends cutting off our body parts in anticipation of getting cancer, I trusted them, not my gut, I had my right breast removed that was cancer free, it’s one of my biggest regrets. Please, do your homework before making any decisions, I relied and trusted the medical profession. Every since my surgery, every night has been sleepless. I don’t wish this on anyone, but I do I wish everyone health, happiness and love. If I can change or help one person, this reply didn’t fall on silent ears. Please take care of yourself and “the Truth About Cancer” is one of the best steps you’ll take, pass it on, help others. THANK YOU Ty for caring for us! May we turn the tables around and once again care more about humanity and not money. God Bless!
Instead of “Breast Cancer Awareness” month, because by now we’re all “aware”, why not promote “Breast Cancer Prevention” month, so we can teach people how to prevent the disease before it starts. Being a Whole Food Plant Based Nutrition Consultant and a Breast Cancer Survivor, there’s so much information that women need to know, such as through diet, they can prevent and reverse illnesses and what to eat and what not to eat to prevent breast cancer in the first place. Why aren’t these so called “charitable” organizations promoting that? The reason: There’s no money in healthy people.
I love your “Breast Cancer Prevention” month idea. Susanne.
This really bothers me to mention this, but the Susan G. Komen organization probably wouldn’t really want an early cure for breast cancer because their organization profits greatly on all those women, and men diagnosed with breast cancer (men can get it as well!). Koman would be out of business! Diet and environment play a major role on how our bodies become ill. High fructose corn syrup is a real killer and causes obesity in kids. Coca Cola and KFC should not be sponsoring the Komen organization period. Please choose organic food, avoid GMO and processed food and avoid sodas! I do care that we remain healthy and strong. Live well and prosper!
Agreed! As a breast cancer survivor told me in 2005, breast cancer treatment is big business with big profits. The mammogram machines are owned by doctors. These machines cause cancer.
I started a comment and my stupid FRONTIER internet provider screwed something up! I am a 20+ yr. Avon lady and am totally embarrassed by their ignorant support of this foundation. I NEVER push their pink ribbon crap. I don’t trust it at all. I haven’t had a mammogram in years,even though I had a lump 25 yrs. ago, only after I was taking Premarin! My daughter was on birth control pills and had TWO lumps = all benign, thank God. I just can’t believe this is still going on. Such a disgrace. And unnecessary
Just read this article, they state mammograms are still deemed to be the best way to detect breast cancer. NO thermal imaging is a very powerful way to detect heat in the breast caused by inflammation in turn can be cancer which can be detected 8/10 years before a mammogram would pick it up in all age groups of ladies. Our government need to listen and allow this to be in very hospital in every country.
Yes! I agree with Kelly and Kathleen. I was about to type in the same thing and was happy to see someone has already said it! People are often shocked when I tell them that Komen supports Planned Parenthood with the money their supporters raise.
Most of these types of organizations (public solicited “do-gooders”) operate about the same. I have cared for my cerebral palsy (spastic quadriplegic) child for 38 years and NEVER RECEIVED ANY HELP from The Untied Cerebral Palsy Association…but they still solicit donations from me!
Hi there
I saw that episode too. It was very interesting indeed and I do believe it to be all true. Perhaps if more people believed in Natural therapy, more lives would be saved. Good luck to all the cancer victims.
Great book, I read it while going through chemo. Tried some of the things, still using Essiac! My last chemo was May 2013 and Essiac helped to get my immune system back up and funtioning.
Once I learned how this pinkwashing worked, I stopped purchasing anything that has a pink ribbon on it, Cashmere toilet paper, bread, Avon. You have to be so careful, read the labels. Products containing carcinogens are everywhere, and the companies brag about how much money they donate to breast cancer awareness, just to turn around and claim the donation on their taxes for a deduction!
I’m breast cancer survivor! ?? and I’m doing the same! Juicing for over 10 months. That help me to tolerate my chemotherapy. I did the possible and God did the impossible!
Melinda, do not give up. Your immune system has an amazing way of healing you when you nourish it with proper nutrition. I have a couple of friends who have had breast cancer and i would be happy to share their stories with you. Look me up in FB or contact me at helen.marinis@gmail.com. Hopefully you have already go off dairy and sugar and are on a plant-based diet in wholesome form. Let food be your medicine and medicine be your food. Keep a positive outlook in life, trust and eat all the food that mother nature has given us as there are a plethora of disease-fighting properties in them. Wishing you the very best in regaining your health.
Yes!!
Supposedly my mammograms is due. I heard they cause cancer. How does a mammogram cause cancer?? Is it through the ultrasound? I was told there is no radiation in ultrasounds.
If it is Pink, it Stinks. Cure? No, cash. I will never support the “race for a cure” I am 63 years old and have never had a mammogram, even though I have have had MD’s telling me I MUST or will die. Yep, I have been told I will die if I don’t submit to not only the mammograms but other test. MRI’s, Colon scans, X-rays, and drugs. I watched my parents DIE from the same recommendation, but hey, didn’t somebody get rich over it! The new one for my age group is the Hep B. I discussed this with my chiropractor and was told, like I already knew, they would probably find something scary and put me on an overly priced medicine, even though I had NONE of the risk factors. I’ll pass. I will stick to what I know works. Clean organic food, letting God take over the stress, essential oils, herbs and a brain to know if I am getting took. Working so far. I love my life, happy where I am at and saving lots of bucks in the mean time! Haven’t seen a hospital, an MD, a drug in 25 years.
tag, DITTO I am 56 and have watched too many of my friends die with ” conventional treatment “. Happy to look after my body my way, naturally !
I’m looking at Hypocrites Health Institute for my wife who has stage 3 breast cancer – they have a 3 week plan and lots of success stories. They offer a raw vegan cuisine, initial blood test and lots of practical cancer fighting approaches, they are in Florida
Thank you Donna Pinto for this great information.
Not surprised at all; the American Cancer Society founded by the Rockefellower has been using the cancer scam for over 60 years. They the biggest non-profit getting a billion in donation. They have on their board of directors, the pesticides companies, the radiation industry, the pharmaceutical companies etc. “Cure” for Cancer is a really good SCAM for raising money cause cancer is a very COMPLEX disease. It the same Miracles that MADE YOU THAT GOING TO KILL YOU. Even many of the cancer researching have FINALLY SAID IT; THAT CANCER IS VERY COMPLEX !!!!. You can heard great news like they have an inhibitor for VEGF to inhibit angiogensis, but then the patient is bleeding to death. You can heard the great news that immunotheraphy is killing the turmor, but then the immune system attack multi-organ beside the tumor and the patients die. So Cancer is greatest disease to use as a SCAM to raise money.. period.
I was just going to post the same thing, Kelly. I wish TTAC would make it known there is a link between abortion and breast cancer. Such a serious omission.
Power to the people !!! Thanks to all of you for doing the right thing being honest. !!!
Thanks for this information, I just wish I could copy this so I could take it to the people here that started Cowboys for Cancer
Research. They raise big bucks here every year.
New Life Cancer Centers, office in San Diego and clinic in Tijuana, does a powerful “intratumoral” chemo and can add targeted radiation if needed for treatment for various types of cancer with high success rates with many patients. The founder, Dr. Baofa Yu, has been overseeing this patented treatment protocol in four hospitals in China for over 18 years and has opened the Tijuana clinic about a year ago. My husband is being treated there for liver cancer, a very aggressive type which would be deemed “non-treatable” in the U.S. They are aggressively going after his tumor and are optimistic they can kill it, while creating a vaccine in the body that will locate and kill off any loose cancer or cancer stem cells. This clinic is on the expensive side but after the first 3 treatments (which can be done in 2 1/2 weeks), any follow-up treatment that may be needed is at no charge. The doctors, nurses and staff there are all absolutely amazing. If anyone can save my husband’s life, it is this clinic. We are not out of the woods yet by any means but still have some hope that they can help him. Patients we met while there for his first 3 treatments who have pancreatic, liver, colorectal, and colon cancer are having great results in a matter of weeks. We hope to add our stories to theirs very soon.
Wow TTAC. You are amazing. Soon we will be living free of all disease and actually reversing the aging process. Can’t wait!
I’m so happy that people are finally realizing this organization is a fraud. The naturopathic approaches are never discussed except for those brave individuals leaving these comments. The Truth About Cancer (TTAC) discusses many of the natural options to the aggressive treatments offered by the mainstream medical community. These discussions need to dominate the conversation so that people will take responsibility for their own healthcare, support their immune system (overwhelmingly the digestive tract) and allow themselves to HEAL. My wife thrives despite her Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) with the help of alkaline water, essential oils and consuming clean greens. No more chemo for her; a treatment we will look back upon one day as barbaric. If you need a little push in the right direction, please feel free to contact me at “djbasse7@gmail.com”. I try to stay off facebook as we don’t need to plaster our issues all over, for others to see and comment on. I read all the comments with enthusiasm and hope. Thank you.
I can vouch for Natural Remedies. Had stage 3 Breast Cancer and used green veggies, Essential Oils, German Aloe Vera, and a few other items. I did have tumor taken out which now I realize the cancer cells would have died anyway. It has been 7 years and I feel great. Statistics show Chemo makes a large % of women have cancer come back in 5 years or spend to other parts of body. Please see video or read about the Truth About Cancer.
I am currently battling breast cancer and I have done all my research on the Internet I have not had to buy one single book my cancer is shrinking or my tumour anyway is shrinking I believe any information out there regarding breast cancer and the legitimate said to save and cure shouldn’t have a cost you should just be given
Just come back from an encouraging session with my homeopath. My BIG probe is my struggle to ignore my husband’s anger because I don’t adhere to the orthodox treatment prescribed by the medical fraternity since my breast cancer diagnosis in June 2012. thank you to YOU all! Glenda from Port Alfred, South Africa
I would say your proof is in the fact that you’re still here and hopefully healthy almost 5 years after being diagnosed.
Glenda,
Your blessing is that your husband cares enough about you to be angry with your alternative health care choices. Your project is to educate him about their validity.
I used to do relay for life every year and I stopped because I never saw any results. All thst money being donated for research and I never saw any advancement acceot mote drugs and mote chemo chemicals. We should start a relay for nutritional cancer research. Where people can get grants to go to live in facilities for cancer cures…with grants for those who can’t afford it bc insurance won’t cover holidtic testing.
Hi Jodie, Agreed…I bought this same book years ago & it’s wonderful!
Hello, I was diagnosed with stage 2b in 2013, (invasive ducal w/ lymph node involvement) I live near this institute & they do wonderful work, but please consider conventional treatment also, I had surgery (double mastectomy with immediate reconstruction) and chemotherapy, I trusted my oncologist, I am now 56 and thankful to be alive, my best to you and your wife, you are welcome to contact me.
The article does not mention the partnership between the pink and Planned Parenthood. They deny the link between abortion and contraception with breast cancer!!! NO PINK!! it is deceptive!!
Thank you so much for sharing this. I was always under the belief that wine is good for you. Obviously not!!!
This is a great article. MANY years ago I supported my daughter-in-law with her 3 day walk in support of my mother who was at the time a breast cancer survivor. She just passed last year of a stroke. My journey took me to the great education of truth with all the natural cures and the fake information touted by the FDA and government affiliations cover up of the truth. It moved me so much I started an organization called Maggie’s Hope to help educate all and offer up remedy s for low cost (I am not in this for the money). Cures like Essiac Tea (that I sell) I have found have wide rage of curative aspects for a wide range of diseases along with most all natural remedy s. The problem that company s have is that they can’t patent nature (God’s pharmacy). My hope is that all of us can spread the word and save some lives. NO ONE HAS TO DIE FROM CANCER, NO ONE.
Thank you so much for this information. I must admit, I have been swayed by the Pink and also by doctors. Are the doctors just as swayed by big Pharma and GE types? Thank you again.
I agree. I love apples?
Helpful info. Lucky me I found your site by chance, and I am surprised why this coincidence did not took place earlier! I bookmarked it.
FINALLY.. found a site that I believe in as well. They have so much money and still yet trying to find a cure.. interesting. It’s unfortunate that people have fallen vicitm to such nonsense but when you try to educate people they think you’re crazy. The same thing going on with the flu shot. Now all of a sudden everyone’s coming down with flu like symptoms.. I call BS…
I just got done with a year of Chemo and Radiation treatment for Stage 2 Breast Cancer . A lot of money had been spend for operation etc. There are some Cancer Groups that were helpful in helping with the overwhelming bills that come with such a illness . Iam thankful they were there for me as a cancer patient .
What organizations helped you financially. I can’t get any of them to help me. Had breast cancer chemo and radiation. Big bills now
Amen! I couldn’t say it better myself. I have a website which promotes naturopathy and clean eating and a podcast on medical coverup and “conspiracies” and I have been blasting the nefarious undertones of Komen for years but few want to hear it.
Gregory, can I get a link to your website please?
Great article! If only I could go back to early 2008, I would have refused radiation treatments and Tamoxifen! I now use Thermography instead of mammograms after several cancer scares! I have wanted to replace the pink ribbon with my own sword logo as a survivor and athlete!
Sorry to hear this, Lisa. It’s a blessing to now be well informed though so you can help your loved ones make better decisions for their health.
Blessings and love!
My friend is a micro-biologist I who worked on two separate teams to design a non radioactive cancer-cure.
Both times they reached success, the government came in, pulled the funding, evidence, & shut down the labs.
I don’t donate to “cancer cures” anymore, because as long as nuking terrified cancer victims is so effing profitable, the truth can’t out.
On Oct. 7, 2003, the US government issued Patent No. 6,630,507
Patent No. 6,630,507, you see, is for cannabinoids as antioxidants and neuroprotectants. Most people would simply refer to this as medical marijuana. Who got that patent? The US government gave this patent to itself.
There are no less than *SIX MAJOR INDUSTRIES* whose income is threatened by cannabis legalization
✓ Cancer Treatment Industry
✓ Biotech Industry
✓ Prison Industry
✓ Asset seizure & Forfeiture Industry
✓ Alcohol Industry
✓ Pharmaceutical Industry
Cannabis suppression is about *CONTROL* and comes from the industries affected or potentially affected. Any one by itself has the lobbying power to perpetuate suppression and keep it illegal. I doubt the coffee industry is worried about it.
Thanks for sharing, love!
