This is a refreshing viewpoint from Dr. David Brownstein, MD, of the Center for Holistic Medicine in southeast Michigan.
The Powers-That–Be in the cancer fundraising world–such as the American Cancer Society (ACS) and the Komen Foundation–would have you believe we are making progress against cancer. However, we are not making any respectable progress. In fact, over the last 60 years, more and more people are diagnosed with cancer and more are dying from it. The Powers-That-Be are too busy fundraising and promoting faulty diagnostic tests such as mammograms instead of promoting research to determine the underlying cause of cancer and how to avoid getting cancer.
…We know that ionizing radiation causes cancer, including breast cancer. It is ludicrous to recommend yearly mammograms when, after 10 years of annual mammograms, a woman’s breasts have been exposed to the same amount of ionizing radiation that a woman received one mile from the nuclear blast at Hiroshima.
Here is a recent blog of mine on the Big Cancer Establishment that benefits from keeping you sick with cancer: Susan G. Komen and Big Cancer’s “Crawl for the Cure.”
