Steve McQueen turned to alternative therapies only after conventional therapies failed. The same was true of Coretta Scott King, widow of Martin Luther King. As a side note, John Wayne reportedly left the John Birch Society back in the 1960s because many of that organization's members were advocates of alternative medicine for cancer. G. Edward Griffin, a writer for that organization's publications, wrote a book, World Without Cancer, in which he advocated the use of laetrile as a cancer preventative.

Laetrile produces cyanide. The theory was that laetrile produced cyanide would target cancer cells...cassava root, apricot pits, peach pits,etc contain cyanide ..usually not enough to cause harm, unless one eats too much..
Laetrile by itself did not help.
Not enough good, sound, cancer research...everyone’s an influencer, coder, or a fanatic follower of some ethereal short lived celebrity...ok..ok...not everyone...
