Cancer can’t be cured because it isn’t a disease. Its a catch-all term to describe a form of cell mutation that is far greater in its diversity than even cancer researchers thought until a few years ago.

Until then, genetics and “personalised therapy” was the holy grail.

That is, until evolution stepped in.

When they began sequencing the genomes of tumors they found that not only are different tumors entirely different animals genetically, but the same genetic diversity exists within different parts of the same tumor due to the fact that cancer evolves rapidly (makes sense when you consider the basic error is in speeded up DNA replication) as it grows.. even with the same tumor.

Thus, a needle biopsy of a tumor of clinically significant size is going to yield a genetic profile that is inconsistent with other parts of the tumor.

Once you add distant metastasis to the problem, the complexities multiply.

As for the foil hat nonsense.. there was tons of money in “managing” polio and TB too, yet I don’t recall hearing about sudden disappearances of vaccine researchers and people doing trials on antibiotic regimens.

Unfortunately its exactly because cancer is so difficult to treat that there is such a vast amount of misunderstanding, funding foolishness and blatant quackery in the field.

That qualifies as the most ignorant statement ever made about cancer.

Cancer tumors are a collection of undifferentiated cells, much like stem cells. The thing that makes them deadly is that they thrive on the conditions created by a bad diet.

Without chronic elevated blood glucose, cancer is a very low probability disease. The current cancer ‘epidemic’ is due to the fact that well over half of our population has chronic high glucose levels, mostly caused by consuming non-animal fats that render our cells literally waterproof, thus incapable of ingesting and burning the sugar.

Drop the Crisco, and the poly-unsaturated vegetable oils, and replace them with natural saturated fats, both animal, and vegetable, and you’re on your way to cancer-proofing your body.
