I read Anticancer by Dr. David Servan-Schreiber a couple of years ago and boy did it open my eyes. He's a Ph.D., M.D., and cancer survivor. In his book he uses medical and scientific studies to show how to treat cancer naturally. He does not come across as a snake oil salesmen. At no point does he say that eating nothing but broccoli will cure you of cancer, there is a bit more to it than just that including therapy sessions and exercise. All the eeeeeevil supplements listed in this article are what he uses, lol. The problem is that pharmaceutical companies can't patent garlic or turmeric. I'm all for people making a profit if that profit is gained from their own risk and investments. I question the decades of research and the billions of dollars that have been dumped into the cure for cancer. A lot of that money was originally mine and yours.

What I find amusing about this article is that they say it “adversely affects chemo,” but they don’t explain that those supplements are actually doing a similar duty as the chemo but without side effects and possibly on a much more “micro” level.

It’s like any pharmaceutical, really: take it until there’s a certain level of the drug in your system and maintain. I’ve been eating raw garlic, cumin, turmeric, and drinking tea for years. I hope that proves positive for me in the long run. I doubt it’s hurting anything.

Remember Dirk Benedict from the original A-Team & Battlestar Galactica? He overcame prostate cancer by adopting a rigid macrobiotic diet. His book, Confessions of a Kamikaze Cowboy is a pretty good read. He's a pretty staunch conservative/libertarian and has written a few items for Breitbart's Big Hollywood as well.
