The Poisoned Needle: CHAPTER V CANCER CAUSED BY VACCINATION

This article on free thought comes from this link.

"The chief, if not the sole cause of the monstrous increase in cancer has been vaccination."—
Dr. Robert Bell, the famous cancer specialist of the British Cancer Hospital.

We do not claim that vaccination is the only cause of cancer although Dr. Bell (quoted above) observed so many cases of cancers at the site of the vaccination and elsewhere, but directly traced to this cause that he affirmed that vaccination was the cause of the great increase in the cancer rate.

Dr Bell is just one of the many authorities who have been faced with the uncomfortable realization that the blood contamination from vaccines is one of the leading causes of cancer.

Dr. E. J. Post, a prominent physician of Berlmont, Michigan, said:

"I HAVE REMOVED CANCERS FROM VACCINATED ARMS EXACTLY WHERE THE POISON WAS INJECTED."

In the New York Press, January 26, 1909, W. B. Clark stated:

"Cancer was practically unknown until cowpox vaccination began to be introduced.
I have had to do with 200 cases of cancer and I NEVER SAW A CASE OF CANCER IN AN UNVACCINATED PERSON."

Dr. Herbert Snow, Surgeon of the London Cancer Hospital, had this to say:

"I am convinced that some 80 per cent of these cancer deaths are caused by the inoculations or vaccinations they have undergone.
These are well-known to cause grave and permanent disease of the heart also."

Dr. Dennis Turnbull, who had studied cancer for 30 years declared:

"I have no hesitation in stating that in my judgement the most frequent disposing condition for cancerous development is infused into the blood by vaccination and re-vaccination."

Dr. Forbes Laurie, late Medical Director of the Metropolitan Cancer Hospital, (London) said:

"I am thoroughly convinced that the increase of cancer is due to vaccination."

In his book CANCER AND VACCINATION, Esculapius says:

"No candid and scientific inquirer who has read the works of such authorities as Doctors Creighton, Crookshank and Scott Tebb, can be surprised that an alarming increase in cancer is now evident.
Those who adopt the brutal practice of calf-lymph vaccination are but too surely sowing the wind which they must inevitably reap as the whirlwind, a whirlwind of corruption, disease and national deterioration.
Where the so-called, human lymph is employed, syphilis, leprosy and tuberculosis follow in its train; and wherever calf-lymph is used, tuberculosis and cancer spread like a conflagration.

Sir Thomas Paget (M.D.), tells us that "the progress of vaccine infection in the blood shows us that a permanent morbid condition is established; in the tissues themselves, it is also established by this specific poison."

Dr. Benchetrit states that serums and vaccines "are principally responsible for the increase of those two really dangerous diseases, cancer and heart disease."

Dr. F. P. Millard, prominent Osteopath of Toronto and President of the National League for Prevention of Spinal Curvature says:
"Abolish vaccination, and you will cut the cancer death-rate in half."

PHOTOGRAPHS OF FATAL CANCER CASES CAUSED BY VACCINATION

Although there have been thousands of cancers caused by vaccination space will not permit the reviewing of the case histories or even a small fraction of them.
The photographs below will give an idea of the tragic condition and intense suffering brought about by this curse of the modern age — vaccination.

Mrs Helen Goates of Bolivar, Missouri was a strong, healthy woman with no skin trouble or chronic disease when she was persuaded, during a vaccination drive, to submit to vaccination.
Almost immediately, after the injection, an inflamed swelling started to develop around the vaccination.
It continued to increase in size and intensity until it covered her entire arm and hand.
After a period of time it spread over her back and breast as is shown in the photograph.

She was treated by more than a dozen doctors and cancer specialists but the condition grew steadily worse until death relieved her of her agony.
Before her death she requested that a photograph be taken of the cancer in order that others might see the results of vaccination and be warned, in time against this ever present danger of vaccine poisoning.

The cancer does not always start immediately.
It usually takes months or years for the poisons to degenerate enough tissue for a cancer to form.

It is for this reason that most doctors fail to recognize the connection between the vaccinations and the cancers.
The following photograph is an example of a later development.

Benjamin F. Olevine of Altoona, Pennsylvania, was vaccinated when in good health.
Two months later a sarcomatous (tumorous) growth began to develop where the vaccination sore had not healed.
The growth reached enormous proportions, as may be seen from the photograph, and caused intense pain and untold suffering, not, only in the arm but throughout the entire body.
No cure was possible and his misery was relieved only by death.

AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY REVEALS STARTLING FACTS

The 1955 advertising circular sent out by the American Cancer Society, states:

"Cancer will strike one of every four persons now living according to the present estimates.

"MORE CHILDREN FROM 3 TO 15 YEARS OF AGE DIE OF CANCER THAN FROM ANY OTHER DISEASE".

This is a shocking, tragic situation when we consider that just a short time ago — less than 50 years — cancer was unheard of among children.
It was, even then, a rare disease associated with old age degeneration.
But today, after the intensive vaccination programs conducted several times a year in the schools, cancer has become so prevalent that it is now taking a death toll among the children that is almost unbelievable.

According to the report of the American Cancer Society, "The cancer death rate has increased from 65 persons per 100,000 in 1900 to 134.8 persons per 100,000 in 1948."

Newsweek magazine (April 25, 1955) stated that cancer took 128,000 lives in 1933. In 1953 (just 20 years later) the death rate from cancer had increased to 224,000 with an estimated cost of $175,000,000 in hospital bills and $12,000,000 yearly loss of productivity of the afflicted.

The recent 1955 report of the American Cancer Society, stating that cancer strikes one out of every four persons in the United States, means that 25 per cent of the people are cancerous.
Our present population is 160,000,000.
Every fourth person, or 25 per cent of our population amounts to 6,400,000 people.
Is this our present cancer rate, as compared to only 224,000 two years ago in 1953?
If these figures are right then our cancer rate has increased from 128,000 in 1933 to 6,400,000 in 1955 which is an increase of 6,272,000 cases of cancer in the short span of 22 years.
This staggering increase in a preventable disease is a grave reflection upon our present system of living with its popularized blood pollution practices by way of vaccination campaigns and mass poisoning as a result of government enforced spraying of fruits and vegetables with deadly lead arsenate and other poisons.
The power politics of the drug and chemical companies have also influenced legislation to set aside vast sums of the taxpayer’s money with which to buy their poison chemicals, such as chlorine, fluorides, etc., for contaminating the public water supply and for enforcing tuberculin testing of cows.
The people are told that these practices are beneficial but facts disclaim these statements.

DOCTOR FORESEES A NATION OF INVALIDS

Dr. S. S. Goldwater, New York Commissioner of Hospitals pointed out in The Modern Hospital Magazine that the present measures used to check contagious diseases may permit of longer life — but not of stronger life.
As a result of the drugs, vaccines and other suppressive treatments used to check diseases, he says that, "chronic diseases are growing at such a rate that America may become a nation of invalids.
Over half the hospital beds are filled with chronic sufferers, both old and young."
(from Health Practitioner’s Journal, June, 1944)

FAULTY CANCER RESEARCH IMPEDES PROGRESS

There is no argument against the urgent need for the prevention and cure of cancer.
Doctors as well as laymen recognize the dangers of this advancing menace; but there is great confusion and conflict regarding theories and practices used in treating cancer.
The medical and non-medical schools of healing have opposing views which set up a state of warfare between them instead of the unity and cooperation that should prevail in order to solve this critical problem..
A few of the drugless doctors are using cancer treatments that are 80 per cent more effective in removing cancer than those used and endorsed by the medical profession as a whole.
But the monopolistic domination of the A.M.A. constantly thwarts these efforts toward improvement because they cannot collect the fees.

It is no secret that the newspapers are also muzzled by the A.M.A., and are not permitted to publish any health news, or information or advertise any books about health without the sanction of the Medical gestapo through their hirelings in the Better Business Bureaus.
If health information reflects unfavorably on the medical profession or exposes its rackets it is immediately suppressed no matter how factual and critical to life it may be.
The health books in tax supported public libraries and schools are also limited to the out-of-date, erroneous, "slanted" data passed upon or written by medical men.

THE MEDICALLY MADE IRON CURTAIN

Because of this medically made iron curtain, the public is shown only one side of the cancer picture and is constantly being drilled on the one theme endorsed by the medical hierarchy — that "there are only three proved ways — and only three — to curb cancer (1) X-ray, (2) radium, (3) and surgery, either singly or in combination. . . " (From CANCER FACTS — 1955 — by the American Cancer Society)

If it is true, as they state, that the medical profession has three proved ways to cure cancer, why is there such a rapid increase in cancer every year?
Why do we see thousands of deaths occurring all the time, of those who have been treated by these "proved" methods?
Also, why do we have this never ending fund raising cancer campaigns to support laboratories that are supposed to be hunting a cure for cancer?
If one of these claims is true, it cancels out the other; that is:
if they have a proved cure for cancer then it proves that the cancer campaigns are merely money making schemes for the pleasure and profit of the promoters.
On the other hand, if they know that they have no cure and are deliberately taking money (large sums) from their patients under the false pretenses of offering a proved cure THAT DOES NOT CURE, but instead OFTEN KILLS THE PATIENTS, THEN THEY ARE ENGAGED IN FRAUDULENT PRACTICES and should be dealt with accordingly.
The law is not lenient with fraud cases, even when they do no bodily harm.
Many innocent drugless practitioners and writers of non-medical health books have been barred from the mails on fraud charges merely because they disagreed with accepted medical theories.
(See chapter on MEDICAL INTERFERENCE)

90 PER CENT DIE OF MEDICALLY TREATED CANCER

Medical authorities, themselves, have estimated that "over 90 per cent of the medically diagnosed cases of cancer die of it in spite of frequent applications of both surgery and radiation."
Dr. James Ewing, one of the "expert witnesses" at a Senate hearing, admitted this high death rate of medically treated cancer and further voiced the pessimistic view that he "did not believe there is any reasonable expectation of a great discovery entering the cancer field in this age."
This indicates that he also believes that the cancer campaigns and laboratories are merely in the business for profit.

Although most of the confessions of failure have been made in the privacy of the medical conference chambers, a few of them have reached the public by way of reports in medical journals and sometime through legal investigation.
One of the voluntary confessions was made by Dr. Raballiati, who stated, "In the early part of my career I performed over 500 major operations for cancer and growths, and it was the uniform lack of success with the knife that caused me to search for other means of more effectively treating cancer — though without success."

At the Atlantic City Convention of the American Medical Association, when each cancer specialist was asked what was the cause of cancer, each one in turn admitted he did not know.
One of them said, "I admit I know neither the cause nor the cure of cancer — and neither do you, not anyone else here."

This statement, no doubt, voices the orthodox medical view regarding cancer.
If they did know the cause of this disease they would not use the three hazardous treatments they claim are the only "proved cures".

CANCER — NO MYSTERY

Outside the medical field and among the few independent physicians who dare to think for themselves, there are to be found those who do know the cause and cure of cancer because they understand the underlying cause of disease in general.
Only when this is known can the right approach to prevention and cure be attempted with any certainty of success.

Dr. Herbert M. Shelton is one of these men with a clear view as to the cause and control of disease.
In an article in The Hygienic Review, for April, 1949 he writes:

"Cancer has no secret.
It is but a part of general pathology (disease).
It is an end-point in a chain of pathological sequences that need only to be watched to be recognized.
There is no specific cause of cancer.
It is merely another and final link in the pathological chain that began in infancy with the first cold.
It is. a product of pathological evolution...

"They (the medical profession) insist upon viewing cancer as some spontaneous horror that suddenly springs upon its victims from out of the void.
They refuse to recognize the office of the general causes of pathology in the production of cancer.

"So long as cancer "research" is only a search for a "cancer secret" that, after all, is but a figment of the imagination, their experiments will continue to be sterile repetitions of experiments that have already been performed .

"What, then, is the cause of cancer?
It is an evolution out of toxemia (poisoning).
Toxemia is a chronic state, due to ones enervating (depleting) mode of living.
Toxemia produces the chronic local irritative conditions that form the site of cancer.
External irritations such as tobacco, mineral oil, alcohol, spices, coal tar products, drugs, etc., may and do add to the cause in many cases, but it is noteworthy that only a few of those subjected to these irritants develop cancer.
In the absence of sufficient tissue degeneration from chronic toxemia, the body successfully resists these irritants."

J. Ellis Barker has this to say regarding the cause of cancer (This quotation is from his book on cancer, foreworded by Sir Arbuthnot Lane, famous English Surgeon and physician to the Royal Family of England.):

"The cause of cancer is two-fold:
(1) chronic poisoning and
(2) vitamin starvation."
(The required vitamins do not include the manufactured products by that name many of which are coal tar products and injurious in themselves.
The only vitamins worthy of the name are to be found in natural, unprocessed foods such as vegetables and fruits, nuts and grams Eleanor McBean)
"The poison may be introduced from without or generated from within.
In the former class are aniline and paraffin fumes, deep burns of any kind — including X-ray and radium burns, and arsenical poisons (as in arsenic insecticides sprayed on fruits and vegetables) whether breathed in through the lungs or taken as medicine into the system through the mouth or by subcutaneous injection."
Mr. Barker quotes other authorities to show that "continued medical use of arsenic, even in extremely small doses, may lead to cancer after 20 years or more, and even after the discontinuance of the drug."
He referred to the Silesian miners in the cobalt mines of Schineeverg, "who developed a most unusual form of cancer, cancer of the lungs, from breathing in arsenic after having been employed in the mines for more than 20 years."
(Medical Voodoo, p. 207)

Dr. George S. Weger, a "reformed" medical doctor who rose head and shoulders above his colleagues, summed up the cancer situation, in his "Genesis and Control of Disease. (p. 334).
He wrote:

"No germ for cancer has yet been found, and, in the author’s opinion none ever will be found.
Cancer is one disease that is distinctive of toxemia, (poisoning) plus trauma, plus irritation.
It occurs most frequently in selective areas but may be found anywhere in the body.
No infection of secondary nature is necessary to make this abnormality a cancer by conversion from something else.
If a cancerous mass breaks down, softens, and suppurates, it is usually in a late stage and signifies a serious breach in the defenses — the vitality of the individual — and the toxemia then immediately takes on the characteristics of sepsis which destroys the life of the blood.

"Some specialists advance the theory that cancer activity is dependent upon a vegetable parasite, a protozoa, identified as Trichomonas.
It is conceded, however, that this parasite (if any) is not capable of producing cancer without the accompaniment of two other important factors: first, proper soilage (toxemia); second, continued irritation or injury."

Another cancer authority who recognized that toxemia or internal poisons cause cancer, is Dr. Robert Bell, Vice-President of the International Society for Cancer Research.
His statement in The Medical Record for March, 1922 reads as follows: -

"Cancer is rooted in every drop of blood in the body, and we may as well expect to stop the growing of apples by picking them off the trees. . . as to expect to destroy malignancy in the human body by attacking the outward growth…..
For depend on it, every cell of the body is affected, and has been affected for a long period, prior to the appearance of the local outcrop. . .
In my view, cancer is the outcome of prolonged toxemia, and a vitiated (polluted) blood supply affecting the nervous system and the efficiency of the endocrine glands, which explains the absence of healthy-metabolism and the dire disturbance which we call cancer."

LYMPHATIC INVOLVEMENT IN CANCER

Without going into technical detail on this subject it is, nevertheless, important to show the relationship of the lymphatic glands to vaccinal cancer.
The lymph vessels form a fine network that interpenetrates the connective tissue and covers the entire body.
The continuity of these lymph vessels "is interrupted by interposed nodular aggregations of lymph tissue which are known as lymph glands."
(Textbook of Anatomy — Cunningham) One of the functions of the lymph glands is to filter the poisons from circulation before they reach the cells.
When an excess of poison is generated in the body or is introduced from the outside as in vaccination, the lymph glands become enlarged in an effort to collect and hold in abeyance, the accumulation of poison.
In the case of blood poisoning or a bite of a poison insect a lump usually forms under the arm or in the groin, to meet the emergency, but disappears again when the condition has healed.
In the case of the continued intake of poison such as tobacco, coffee, drugs, etc., the glands most effected keep enlarging to accommodate the inflow of poison.
A protective coating of tissue is formed around the gland to protect the body from collected poisons.
It is this wonderful defense mechanism that the body provides against the ignorance and willfulness of the individual, that the doctors attack as an enemy.
They call it a wild growth of tissue — a cancer or tumor.
To cut or burn (as with radium, X-ray or surgery) this bulwark of protection is to add insult to injury and allow the self-generated poisons to flow unchecked through the body and do serious damage to the vital organs, tissues and glands.

Dr. J. Morrison, former Professor of Chemistry and Toxicology in the Medical Department of the National University at Washington, D. C., had ample opportunity to observe the lymphatic involvement in cancer and other diseases during his many years as a specialist in nervous and chronic diseases.
He was formerly a member of the Medical Council and Examiner in the College of Physicians and Surgeons, (Ontaria, Canada). Regarding cancer he said:

"Cancer can only attack the organs and tissues moderately or abundantly supplied by the lymphatic circulation . . .
Therefore, cancer is a disease of the lymphatic system "per Se" in the same sense that tuberculosis is regarded as a disease of the lungs or respiratory system."

Speaking of causes he had this to say:
"Two well-known causes of this fatal malady are, (1) nicotine (tobacco) poisoning and (2) vaccination, which is certainly the most prolific cause of both external and internal cancer. . .
Vaccine virus poisons the lymphatic system, impairs its function and lays the foundation for internal cancer, for which there has hitherto been no (successful medical) treatment or relief."

In Ontario, Canada, vaccination is very, very seldom performed and it is not a mere coincidence that cancer is exceedingly rare there.
On the other hand, Massachusetts, in the United States, is one of the nine backward states that defy the Constitution in forcing vaccination upon school children
The cancer rate is so high there, that there have been established more cancer hospitals per population than in other states not under compulsory vaccination laws.
However the multiplying of medical hospitals has never solved the cancer problems because their methods defy the laws of nature, ignore the cause and purpose interfere with the orderly healing efforts of the body.
As long as continue to attempt to remove the cancer without of poison) so long will they meet with failure or, at best, see the temporary appearance of success.
Some of the patients may survive the medical treatments and have no return of the cancer, so far as outward symptoms are concerned, and yet the interference with the protective efforts of the lymphatic system may release the poisons into the blood and cause heart trouble or some other chronic disease.

Some of the most observant doctors have recognized the hazards of cutting or tampering with a growth on the body. Dr. Leo Loeb, of the University of Pennsylvania, sometimes referred to as "the father of cancer research in America", said that he learned early in his cancer practice that "merely drawing a silken thread through a benign, slowly-developing tumor would transform it into a malignant, rapidly developing one," and that cutting with a knife had the same effect.

In spite of this knowledge among the best qualified authorities, the cutting and burning is continued (with X-ray, radium and surgery) — no doubt because it is so profitable.
The latest cancer propaganda urges the women to do some self-diagnosing and hunt for lumps on the breasts.
These lumps are nothing but overworked lymphatic glands and since most people are toxic they will find some that will feel tender.
The medical advice is that they should rush to the nearest hospital and have them operated on, but the advice of common sense and sound reasoning is to leave them alone and do some internal housecleaning in the form of fasting and proper diet.

DOES DIET HAVE ANY EFFECT ON CANCER?

The American Cancer Society, in a circular entitled FACTS AND FALLACIES ABOUT CANCER says: "Cancer is not caused or cured by any known diet."
Since most of the statements in that leaflet are false, this one is not to be taken seriously either.
Abundant evidence to the contrary proves this claim to be without foundation in fact.

Dr. Willard Parker, who for 30 years held the chair of surgery at Columbia University Medical School was quoted as saying:

"Luxurious living, and particularly excess in animal food, increases the waste products of the body, which if retained in the system have a tendency to produce abnormal growths . . .
Cancer is to a great degree one of the final results of a long continued course of error in diet, and a strict dietetic regimen is, therefore, a chief factor in the treatment — preventive and curative."

Another authoritative voice to be heard on this subject is that of Dr. Horace Packard who in an address to the Homeopathic Surgical and Gynecological Society of Chicago in 1915 said:

"Some critical examination of the habits of life of civilized, cancer-plagued people, in comparison with the habits of primitive, cancer-free people, shows that the main difference between them is in a dietary poor in mineral salts among the cancer plagued and a dietary rich in mineral salts among the cancer-free people, the most logical and rational course is to adopt this as a keynote to cancer treatment."

Mineral salt, needless to say, does not mean common table salt (sodium chloride) which is a poison irritant in itself, and excessive use of which can cause death in a few hours.
The foods high in mineral salts are fresh vegetables, fruits, seeds, nuts, grains, sea plants, etc.

This partly accounts for the remarkable recoveries of cancer patients who had been given up as hopeless by the medical doctors but who went on a simple fast followed by a grape diet or carrot juice diet at home.
Many reports have been received of recovery from cancer of the stomach after a systematic raw carrot juice and vegetable diet but the carrot juice had a negative effect on cancer of the liver.
Many cases of external and internal cancer have been reported cured as a result of a fast followed by a 30-day diet of fresh (unsprayed) grapes.
Some used crushed grape leaf poultices on the external cancer.
Others have recovered on an extended fast including water but no food or juices.
One cancer patient did not respond to this or any other treatment.
She had been under medical care and had received the full course of X-ray, radium and surgery, before she decided to go to a drugless sanitarium to try the fasting and diet regimen.
Even fasting cannot save the patient when cell degeneration has advanced to the point where a large percentage of a vital organ has been destroyed.
However, even these hopeless cases experience an easy and more painless death by fasting, this is far superior to morphine or other drugs.

HOW SHALL WE LEARN ABOUT FASTING?

Since fasting (the foundation of healing) is not taught in the schools, not even medical schools, where healing should be taught, how shall we learn the correct technique of this important healing measure.
Few writers are sufficiently experienced in fasting to be qualified to write on this subject, therefore there are only a very few dependable books available that should be used as guides.
As wonderful as the fast is in eliminating pain, and disease it should be preceded by a thorough study of the technique of fasting in order to know what to do about the reactions or healing crises that occur from time to time as the accumulation of toxins are brought into circulation to be eliminated.
These reactions may be in the form of fainting, vomiting, diarrhea, coughing or some other violent cleansing effort.
Unless the patient understands the situation he may become alarmed and call a doctor who would give drugs to suppress the discharges.
All drugs are poison and poisons at this critical time could cause death.
The most experienced fasting authority in this country is Dr. Herbert M. Shelton who has fasted thousands of patients with almost miraculous results.
Therefore, his book on fasting, (Volume II— of THE HYGIENIC SYSTEM) is the standard authority on the subject.
THERAPEUTIC FASTING by Arnold De Vries is another reliable book.
This author fasted 45 days to test this system after studying many of the best books on the subject.
There are several other books that cover the subject of the fast but do not give sufficient data on breaking the fast and how to follow it up.
The right way to end or break the fast is as important as the fast itself and can be dangerous if the wrong foods are eaten at this time.
The appetite returns after a complete fast and the patient may be tempted to eat some of the same foods he considered nourishing before the fast, only to learn that his body chemistry has normalized during the fast and many wrong foods will react as poisons.
For instance, one person broke the fast on two chocolate bars and soon died as a result of it.
Chocolate contains a poisonous drug (theobromine) which is almost as harmful as the drugs in coffee.
Another person broke the fast on beef steak and fried potatoes and also died soon after.
No one dies of a fast if it is properly conducted and terminated.
Most medical doctors think that fasting is starving but the average person, even a sick person, can fast 40 days before the starvation process even begins to take place.
This point is usually indicated by the pink, clean tongue, which has been gray and coated during the fast.
This is the cue to break the fast, as the cleansing is completed.
If the fast is continued after that point the body begins to use some of the tissues of lesser importance in the starvation process.
Fasting is never intended to extend into the starving period, therefore fasting is not starving.

WHAT KILLED BERNARR MACFADDEN?

The newspapers quoted the doctors as saying that Bernarr MacFadden died of a three-day fast.
They also quoted his lawyer as saying the same thing.
The lawyer, Harry Gilgulin, was shocked when he read the statement he was supposed to have made.
Excerpts from a published letter (Hygienic Review, Jan 1956) refuting this statement are as follows:
"I could never have made such a statement since I myself fasted some eight or nine times for a total of 175 days and benefitted enormously from each of these fasts. . .
Three of my fasts were of 30 days duration and my wife’s two fasts were of 34 and 30-day duration.. .
As a staunch supporter and enthusiastic advocate of hygienic living and an ardent believer in fasting, it must be obvious to you that I could never have made the statement attributed to me by the newspapers.

"What I did tell the reporters was that whenever Mr. MacFadden didn’t feel well, he would go on a short fast of several days duration . . .
He had fasted three days but broke the fast improperly by one small glass of fruit juice in the morning and a meat meal with eight or more pats of butter in the evening and that the improper breaking of the fast is not only dangerous but may lead to dire consequences and even death."

Mr. MacFadden was taken to the hospital and what they did to him in the way of shots and medicines was not stated, but he died soon after being taken to the hospital.
People do not die of three day fasts, especially athletic men like MacFadden who are used to fasting.
I talked to a man who had just completed a 21 day fast to restore his eyesight.
He had been totally blind for 9 months.
The fast had cleansed his blood stream enough to enable the opaque film over his eyes to dissolve and he was reading a newspaper when I met him.
Soon after that I talked with a man who had just completed a 60 day fast to cure a persistant case of psoriasis.
He was entirely healed after the fast on water — no food or juices — and had so improved in health and strength that he was helping the workmen dig a swimming pool at Dr. Bernard C. Jensen’s health sanitarium where he fasted.

Dr. Shelton, in his Hygienic SYSTEM, Vol. 7, page 613 said:

"The effects of fasting are certain.
There is nothing hit-or-miss about the process.
It works always in the same general direction."

This deviation into the subject of fasting and diet may seem a little off the subject in a chapter on cancer yet it is of great importance in that it offers the best solution to the cancer problem.
In fact it is the basis of healing of all diseases, with the possible exception of those which are products of the imagination.
Even in those cases a fast would help the mental and emotional re-adjustment.

Since beginning this chapter on cancer my attention has been called to a severe, seemingly hopeless case of cancer of seven years standing.
The woman has been a bed patient, unable to walk for many years.
Recently she abandoned her medical treatment and, as a last resort, decided to try what her doctors called a "crackpot diet."
This simple diet, so frowned upon by medical men, is nothing but freshly made carrot juice, one or two quarts a day, a glass or so every hour.
After six days on this carrot juice she had the first peaceful night’s sleep, without pain, in seven years.
At the end of two weeks she could walk, with aid, to the car and go for a ride.
Distressing reactions will no doubt, be experienced within four more weeks but she will be prepared and understand what to do.
She has learned that there is hope of recovery from cancer and all diseases when the simple laws of nature are understood and followed.

WHAT’S WRONG WITH EARLY DIAGNOSIS?

The medical profession boasts of having "three proved cures for cancer" namely X-ray, radium and surgery, and yet the cancer-rate continues to mount year after year.
When people ask the reason for this, the doctor’s favorite answer is:
"The patients came too late — early diagnosis would have saved them."
We might be able to believe this argument if it were not for the fact that there never was a time in recorded history when there was so much early diagnosis as right now in this country.

This mass diagnosis starts at the tender age of four and a half years when the children start to kindergarten.
The teachers are instructed to examine the children every day for obvious symptoms of disease and report it to the school nurse.
The nurse examines them, herself, each week and reports her findings to the doctors and the doctors and dentists come in for their check once or twice a year to round up considerable business for themselves by frightening the parents into needless treatments and operations for their children.
The tonsils are the most vulnerable targets of these "mixed up" doctors.
Tonsils are very necessary lymphatic glands of filtration that enlarge when the body is overloaded with incompatible foods and drugs.
Certain drugless doctors claim and have proved that enlarged tonsils are 100 per cent curable under the right non-medical treatment.

The public is bombarded with cancer literature stressing the need for early diagnosis.
The people are even told to do their own diagnosis — hunt for lumps on the breast, growths, moles, sores, etc., that could be treated as cancer.
And yet, the doctors, themselves, don’t even know how to detect cancer in many cases.
No wonder there is so much confusion, suffering and death with so many blind leaders of the blind.
On page 8 of the Doctor’s Manual put out by the American Cancer Society we read:

"It is a well-known fact that a considerable number of malignant tumors are not recognized by the doctors themselves when the patients present the early symptoms of the disease.
The early diagnosis of cancer is the one factor of greatest importance in the successful control of the disease, but unfortunately the early symptoms of cancer are not distinctive, and serve only to arouse suspicion of the presence of the disease . . .
In most situations, the dictum holds true that the more certain the diagnosis the less the probability of cure."

So here we have the admission from the medical cancer field, that they are not sure how to detect cancer until it is too advanced to be cured.

I have had patients tell me that when they went to the doctor with a painful lump the doctor said it had not reached the cancer stage and they had nothing to prevent its developing into cancer but to come back in a few months when it had turned to cancer and they could use their standard "cures" (?) radium, X-ray, and surgery.

During the frenzy of one of the Cancer Week scare campaigns, someone asked the question, "Is there not some danger in developing "cancerphobia" in the public mind by this scare-head publicity?"

Dr. John Cerster, chairman of the New York Committee of the Society for Control of Cancer, replied that "it would be a good thing if it did; anything that would scare the people into going to a physician for an examination would be beneficial."

The financial benefit to the doctors is apparent but the benefit to the people is in reverse ratio to the amount of diagnosis and treatment given.
This is obvious since the cancer rate has quadrupled within the past ten years.

Dr. G. Earl Thomas has charged that, "CANCER IS THE MOST PROFITABLE DISEASE THAT THE MEMBERS OF THE A.M.A. HAVE."

One of the noted American cancer authorities, Dr. L. Duncan Bulkley, senior surgeon of the New York Skin and Cancer Hospital, denounced the popular medical claim that cancer is a "surgical disease" when he stated:

"Cancer is not a surgical disease.
Neither surgery not X-ray nor radium have changed, in anyway whatever, the ultimate mortality of cancer in forty years.
It was 90 per cent in 1884.
Now it is 92 percent".
