Have you ever read the side effect risks of many popular medications (including those for cancer)? They often span multiple pages and often include death as well.

As a former cancer patient, I can most definitely say that yes, I have read the inserts on all my medications. And I was OK with it, because the alternative was much worse.

And, knowing some things about how those patient and physician inserts are developed, I'd rather have scientific data about potential risks beforehand.

Alternative medicines and therapies don't typically collect or report their risks, and even worse, they give false hope for patients.

You sound exactly like me ten years ago. This is not a slam. It’s just that I’ve learned, through personal experience, to not trust the “cancer establishment”. Too many stories of people cured and now it happened to someone I know - and the doctors were hostile to what happened.

Again, I compare the claims of the ACA or AMA to the climate claims of AlGore and the IPPC. I think we are being lied to.
