The Truth About Cancer
Hi. I was just wondering if anyone else has been watching the webinar by The Truth About Cancer. It has been fascinating and very inspiring for me. I feel like I have some control back in my hands again. Just wanted to let everyone know about it.

I am glad you enjoyed it, but if you start fact-checking, it doesn't actually hold up

Momine: that is a pretty broad statement about a group of talks on many different subjects, most of which were nutrition based. You might want to look at greenmedinfo.com or nutrition facts.org to see that most of the nutrition information is very accurate.

I also enjoyed watch the truth about cancer. I got a few leads from it that I later incorporated into my plan and several that validated my current regimen. Sure, there are ideas that need further study and investigation, etc. However, I think that it is important for everyone to get as much information as possible in order to shape their treatment plan. Guidance from both Naturapathic physicians as well as various Oncologists is the best situation until our western medical model becomes more inclusive of other modalities. Good luck Kat.

It has some useful ideas, but its pretty much a one sided smear job against conventional medicine. The Naturopath my wife used to see, wasn't nearly so one sided, and believed his treatments were best as a compliment to chemo and conventional treatment, not a substitute. Unfortunately after spending nearly a thousand dollars a week on IV treatments for a couple of months, my wife suffered serious side effects from his treatments and has since discontinued. As an aside, my wife saw no reduction in tumor markers or shrinking of her tumors while on his treatments. Once she started conventional chemo, the tumors began to shrink and tumor markers have dropped over 90%. She would like to do some of his treatments despite this, but its very expensive, and hard on her veins. I don't believe any of this BS about Doctors recommending chemo to make money. The Doctors here in Canada get nothing extra for recomending any particular line of treatment, and chemo is far cheaper than naturopathic infusions. Far cheaper.

naturapathic guidance or simply complimentary treatment that is holistic in nature. Diet, meditation, vitamin/herbal supplementation, and acupuncture are all things that I have employed throughout conventional treatment.

I totally agree with sarahrae

Katja, yes, it is broad, but no amount of broccoli will cure cancer. The series features an endless stream of "medical" theories that simply have no basis in fact. The bits of useful nutritional advice are available in more credible contexts
